In an attempt to root I have successfully installed and run cm10_a10_20120902.zip and gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip.

Thanks in Avance

Can you clarify? I'm not sure what you mean. I don't find rooting instructions in a thread here.
Are you assuming the Trio Stealth Pro 7c and the Trio Stealth Pro 7 are the same thing, or do you know that they are?
Or do you mean it's already rooted out of the box, as the OP (a fellow newbie) reports here? (and what does that mean? That it even has a working Superuser.app and compatible su installed?
The manual (http://www.triomp3.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Droid-stealth-manual.pdf <sic; that's the link on the site, even though it's named "Droid-stealth-manual") for the Trio Stealth Pro 7 says that one can do this:
1) Tap the setting icon.
2) Tap About tablet.
3) Tap System update, follow the onscreen instructions.
4) Tap Install system update only if there is new version available and you have the update file saved to your SD card.

Trio Stealth 7C is rooted
I've seen a number of posts questioning whether the trio stealth 7C is rooted or not. So I tried a couple of things on my new tablet.
Since receiving it, I have only put CWM recovery 6 on it, which AFAIK does not change anything about root access.
My conclusion is that my tablet is rooted.
1) Using "adb shell", type "su" and did not get an error
2) installed terminal emulator, and typed "su" and did not get an error and the prompt went to a "#" symbol
3) Installed Titanium Backup Root and did backups successfully.
For comparison, I tried the first item above on some other phone that is not rooted and got an error about no having permission.
I suppose its possible that I did something along the way to get it rooted, but it certainly was not on purpose!
Trio Stealth Lite
I bought the Trio Stealth Lite, the 4.3" mini tablet, for my 3 yr old daughter as a traveling tablet. It's a perfect size for her tiny hands to bring along everywhere. It's much more portable than her 10" Nabi 2, plus at just $50, I don't care if she drops and breaks or loses it.
I wanted to add that this tablet to my surprise did come per-rooted, straight out of the box! After charging it up, I wanted to see by any chance it was per-rooted, since another kids tablet she had, the Meep was also per-rooted. (Side note, the Meep is a horrible tablet, I don't recommend it, returned after 1 week. I won't go into details, it'd be it's own separate forum). So, I installed Aptoide onto it, then Titanium Backup, which will tell you right away after you install and open it, if you have root access and indeed it did, straight from the box. After that, I downloaded and installed SuperSU and Busy Box, with no problems, which adds to the fact it's fully rooted already. Then I downloaded Lucky Patcher, since it has an option to install the normal Google Play Store or the modded version of it, since this tablet only came with the Amazon Store for apps/games. The Play Store works great on it, haven't came across an app/game that can't be installed onto it yet.
The best thing I did probably was after installing Root Explorer, I changed the "void fastb" file to swap the internal/external SD cards, which had only 1.7GB originally for apps/games, to now with the externalSD, as the internalSD with 29.7GB (32GB microSD), for apps/games! At first using a class 4 sdcard I had laying around, it'd have glitches sometimes not recognizing the externalSD after rebooting, but then I popped in a class 10 sdcard, the Sandisk Ultra SDXC (red/gray color card), and have had no problems ever since and still has 23GB+ for more apps/games! I also tweaked a few things to make it faster and longer battery life, which helped a lot. Its definitely the best $50 toy she has, I think..
So since, this Trio tablet came pre-rooted, there's a good possibility the other Trio's come pre-rooted too, and to test of yours is pre-rooted or not, you can simply follow what I did with my smaller Trio, first downloading Aptoide, then it's repos (for more apps). Using Aptiode, search, download and install Titanium Backup, SuperSU and Busy Box to confirm root access. Lucky Patcher and Root Explorer can also be found in Aptiode.
Oh by the way, I only had to install the Play Store, using Lucky Patcher, the other Google Apps that usually accompany it, was already installed on the tablet.
I would like to install a custom recovery for it, in case it ever crashes or freezes, and install back the factory ROM. It does have its own recovery, but can only be accessed thru the settings menu, which is no good, if it was to ever freeze up or can't boot. I tried all the different combos with the power, volume, and reset button, but can't ever access the recovery menu that way. It just takes me to the Android guy, lying open with a red exclamation point sticking out of its belly. Using the recovery thru the settings menu, actually takes you to a regular recovery menu, where you can pick to reboot, factory wipe, upgrade from SD, ect..
I tried installing CWM thru Rom Manager but it didn't have a recovery specific to this tablet and I wasn't sure if I could install a different tablets recovery onto this one..
If anyone happens to know how or where I can find one for this tablet, please let me know, I'd greatly appreciate it! :fingers-crossed:
Thanks in advanced!

Greetings, had a quick question for you. This was a great post, as I was having issues rooting this and had heard this device is aleady rooted. I was able to install Aptoid onto it with no issue, but when I tried Titanium Backup, it said the device was NOT rooted..? Do I need to install SuperSU first, then titanium backup? Thanks in advance if you get a chance to respond. I was able to get this device for $20 with a giftcard and was stoked to see how you got it setup.
Thanks!
Trio Stealth Lite Flixster problem
Hi,
I got the Trio Stealth Lite 4.5 inch screen and got a problem. I cannot play videos from my flixster account. I downloaded a ota root keeper and it did not help. So, can someone help me on how to root the device so I can use this device better, I don't want to mess it up. Thanks
Tried and thought i got it, but...
I have a Trio Stealth Pro 7c that I have been working on for over a week now to get Google play. It came rooted out of the box so I followed the above post with success. I downloaded Aptiode market, Titanium Backup, Busy Box, and all the rest suggested in that order. I loaded a mod version of Play that worked and I was playing games and loving it!! Then I powered down and went to bed. Next power on it had done a system reset and taken out all old markets and left only google play which was great except it seemed to add a partition to the internal memory which now wont allow me to download any apps and has erased all previous apps i loaded. It will fully function and I can use other app programs but if I download a google play app it says no room ( i now have have 2 internal storage menus 1 showing full with 35.44 mb apps and the second showing 1.71 gb total space with 1.65gb available.) Any thoughts on how I can either undo the partition so i can change to the original settings and start over or how to just undo the system restore that some how takes place at each power off? Not sure how I did it either! Thanks!
Hey there. I got a Xperia Sola recently and am loving it so far. Getting this has been my switch from IOS to Android and so i'm a little unsure on how to do things, I need a bit of help with something.
Going over to android I was rather excited for some of the larger, more intensive apps that my old iPhone3g couldn't run so I bought myself a nice big 32gb sdcard to put all these apps on. Today I bought NFS Most Wanted, installed the downloader thing from the play store and set it running. When I came back later, I was sad to find that rather than installing to the nice spacious 32gb external card, it had downloaded 2gb of files into the Internal Storage and half filled it. How can I move these files to their intended place on the external card, and how can I make future large downloads go onto the external card as well? The only options I can see in the settings menu are Move to Phone or Move to Internal Storage/SD.
Thanks in advance ^_^

Thanks, but is there no way to do it without rooting? All of the rooting methods I've been able to find for the Sola (I think the one by Bin4ry is a popular one or something?) use the restore and backup thing and that refuses to work for some reason, just gives me an error message every time I try so I haven't been able to root the phone yet.
Edit I think i've figured rooting out. What does the "set abd in path" thing mean in that first link you gave me?

Try this if you are on ICS
Settings> Apps> Downloaded/ALL > NFS Most Wanted
Tap open it. Scroll down and there would be a button reading move to phone! Click it and see if that works. If It copies the file from internal storage to the phone's user available storage then download any market app like app2sd to further transfer the game files to your ext card.
I don't know whether it'll work or not. Still give it a shot!
Happy to help!
I bought a TCL S720T from China about two weeks ago. It has 4.2.2 with 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM and is based on MT6592. When I first got the phone, the internal storage was displayed as about 5.9GB out of which most (about 5.85GB) was available. I would like to mention here that when I connected my phone to the PC thru a USB cable, the total internal storage was also shown as 5.9GB on PC.
I did the following to the phone and now I am in trouble... plz help
As I bought it from China, it did not have Google apps. I rooted the phone to get these installed. During rooting I deleted some useful original apps.
I tried to restore the phone to factory settings but the deleted apps did not return (I do not know what did I do wrong). I started to search for phone's stock ROM but could not find it. Also all information on the web is in Chinese and that too no accessible from where I live.
After a couple of days, I found a ROM on "lewaos" website. It was translated from Chinese to "S720T Le Frog bottom package. Zip" and the website claimed that it was the original ROM. I thought that it is the actual ROM by TCL so I flashed it using SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1343.01. When the system rebooted, the radio was not working as the baseband was missing, however, the total internal storage was shown as about 4.90GB. I just want to mention here that I never backed up my original ROM (bad on my part).
There was another ROM update given on the same website for installation using external SD card. So, I installed the ROM, but this time the total internal storage wasshown as 1.09GB out of which 1GB was available. I got worried and tried to find other ROMs to fix the issue. I found some ROMs from website named "needrom" and tried them too. Whenever I use flash tool to load the ROM which I got from LEWA website, the phone shows 4.9GB internal storage but the phone radio does not work. However, as soon as I install any ROM using SD card, the internal storage is shown close to 1.1GB. I have even downloaded the official ROM update from "tclmobile" website and installed it using SD card, but the internal storage is still shown as 1.1GB. Also, whenever I connect my phone to PC thru the USB cable, the total internal storage is shown as 1.1GB out of which about 1GB is free.
While installing ROM thru SD card, I have always adopted the process of wiping the factory settings and cache in the recovery mode.
I would also like to mention here that during the process of loading ROMs, I lost the radio operation due to invalid IMEI, which I later restored using AT+... commands (thanks to xda-developer forums).
Having said all that let me summarize my problems:-
I have lost the original Stock ROM of my phone and no support is available outside China.
Whenever I install ROMs through SD card, the internal storage is 1.1GB, I want my actual internal storage ie 5.9GB back.
Please help me to fix my phone
Thanks
Maybe we can help each other i have a backup may work for you...
Hey what up dude,
I have exact phone, and similar issue. no backup, but I have a horrible boot loop for one MONTH now, I am going crazy, even the guys at china-devices.com are not much help. (But may help your problem).
I can't backup but i can access stock recovery and NEED to install CWM recovery via SD as the bootloop just blocks all attempts to connect the phone to the PC. I cant see my phone data but i know i have your ROM and model, using TCL factoryware. Octo the whole nine yards.
Another long time friend has a TCL S720T and he sent me a zip of a ROM backup he made. I can pass it to you via wetransfer or email attachment.
Note that his backup is UN-rooted so it should work OK, and be 'pure' maybe some factory crapware he wiped off it. and you will likely need to fix the IMEI issue, (or maybe not, and I am a newb so can't help you there, yet).
In return, could you tell me how you fixed your issue, what exact tools you used, and so on? Sepecially if used MTK driod tools what version and SP flashtools what version any and all info will be great thanks.
There is an app you can istall that shows you which apk are system apps and not to touch, i had it installed, but i am lord of the idiots, and went ahead and deleted the chinese keyboard, hey presto, one really great phone I had almost totally customised my way, now in a month-long boot loop and may never recover.
Wow. It was amazing to hear that someone else also has this phone but was sad to know that you are also facing problems. Please contact me on [email protected]. I will first try to resolve your issues then will post those solutions on xda.
By the way, I have resolved all my issues and my phone is up and running like anything. Thanks to android lovers all over the world. I will try to give you solutions one by one.
SOLVED! & Thanks Muiz!
SOLVED with this tutuorial... all credit to the OP, Muiz, I'm only passing it forward, this is a GREAT phone, hope to see more users soon!
If we address your first problem of not being able to boot the phone at all, I will propose to go to this link (use any English translator if you do not read Chinese) ... you may use www.micrsofttranslator.com
http://bbs.lewaos.com/learn-s720t.html
You will find these steps in a tutorial.
1, download the ROM and put it into the SD card root directory (on computer operation)
Download LeWa_TCL_S720T_JB2_ROM__XXXXX.zip ( from bbs.lewaos.com) and copy ROM package in zip format to phone external SD card root directory.
2, download the Flash tool latest version and unzip it to the desktop (computer operation)
Download SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1352.01, and extract it to your computer desktop.
3, download music frog end of packet (on computer operation) lewaos.com
Download end of Le frog, S720T package. zip and extract it to your computer desktop. lewaos.com
4, download and install the Flash drive Download MT65xx flash drive _ automatically installed. rar (lewaos.com ), and extract it to your computer desktop, double-click the InstallDriver.exe folder is automatically installed
If you desire to install any un-rooted original backup you have, to your phone, do not download the file in step 1.
To make the tutorial short; first install the drivers as mentioned in step 4. Then extract the file mentioned in step 3 in a folder on your desktop. Extract and start the flash tools utility and give the path of the folder you copied on your desktop. There is going to be a sort of file with name “MT6592_Android_scatter.txt”. Use its path to flash the ROM.
You will have to wait for some time, but the Flash tools will install the LEWA ROM on your phone.

can this be rooted with stock rom on it
what does the different roms look like, photos please
ok guys i have tcl s720 without the "t" whats the difference? i went to the chinese website & had a look around with an english translator & i see downloads for s720t but none for s720 .
i recently changed my rom from what it arrived with as play store didnt work & push notifications so i flashed successfully this rom
wwwdotneedromdotcom/download/tcl-720t-cm11-v2-w200s-lstyle-port/
this is ported from THL w200s which works well just a few slight issues with storage etc but better than what i had as play store works
what im also looking for is there actually a fully working rom for the s720 ? & where can i get a fully working stock rom for this phone? yes i have searched tirelessly but roms i checkout seem to have quite a few bugs so im just looking for a good stable one.
apart from few issues this phone im more than satisfied with

Hey guys,
I would like to buy ZenPad Z580CA - 8'' IPS - 64 GB - Wifi and it will be my first Android tablet. Can you tell me if it's "rootable" or not? And if it is, Are there any ROMs available for it?
Anyone guys?
Yes, it is easily rootable. Just follow instructions in "Zenpad S root achieved". You will need a 8gb sdcard in fat2 format to put the chainfire updated su zip file on.
I actually bricked mine already by removing bloat with titanium backup. Fortunately asus provided factory image on their web support site soi was able to restore it with root method above.
The tablet is great after you freeze thd bloatware. I kind of like the asus enhancements. I disabled lock screen and configured wake up when double tapping the black screen, could not do that on my nexus 7.
However i dont like asus launcher so i use nova launcher instead.
mulperi, thanks a lot for the info and the reply, very helpful. I have a question: you said you bricked your tablet when you tried to uninstall Asus apps, should I avoid it and try to freeze the bloatware? The SDcard should be formatted FAT32?
Titanium Backup hung when trying to restore my uninstalled system apps. So my recommendation is to forget titanium and instead use the android built in ordinary application disable. I was able to disable everything i consider bloatware, also many google apps.
Yes avoid disabling/freezing asus apps (color, ui...) and especially asus launcher.
I think the flash tools use an old version of cwm, that can only work with max 8gb sdcard formatted as fat2. At least my other 64gb sdcard was not recognized at all.
Go luck, its a great tablet!
Thanks a lot man for the help and the good advice!
Cheers!
Guys, have you tried to install xposed on it? I'm trying but I've failed so far. I get a message "Xposed int not (yet) compatible with Android SDK version 21 or your processor architecture (x68)". Any ideas?
I succeeding in installing xposed-v79-sdk21-x86.zip using temporary cwm recovery. Before rebooting remember to clear cache and dalvik cache. Then install xposedinstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk
Now it has been a year the tablet is rooted but still nobody has thought to port a new rom. It's a shame, because it is a good tablet but even rooted, Marshmallow sucks and the tablet has a lot of lags. Furthermore, I have been seeing to buy a new tablet, but I realize that the specs of the new ones, are not that different than the specs of this one. So, I'm asking to those great creators of Lineage OS, who ported the Z380 could you please port the Z580CA? thank you in advance
I have been searching for a custom rom for the last days. I bought this phone and attached a 32gb SD CARD to it. The problem is that it wont install ALL apps to the phone on the SD CARD.
Therefore when I login with my google account and it starts installing apps, it gives me a error "insufficient storage available". For this reason I cant really use my phone completely.
I tried:
To root it and move the google apps, but somehow it wont let me move it.
To root it and find a CWM or TWRM recovery for this phone.
To find a custom rom, but cant find anything that works with this phone.
Can anyone give me a tip?
This belongs to Android Q&A, not this forum
Hey,
I dont have a rom for that phone, but thinking of getting it.
Did you find a root that worked and if not did you try kingoroot, because that is supposed to work?
Any luck with an Rom so far?
I tried to port Asus Zenfone II UI. Start fine, but after few second display go grey/white....
You can test if you want maybe you can fix....
For internal storage i can send you modified ebr1 and 2, (2,95GB)
