What ROM ended up working?

>>62447837

>>download 2GB android SDK just so I can get the google usb driver

I'm pretty sure there is some smaller version of that
You did almost everything wrong from the beginning

lineage-13.0-20170421-UNOFFICIAL-l5510.zip

https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-lineageos-13-wiko-ridge-fab-4g-t3590090

>>62448006
There's a fastboot and adb standalone downloads which is pretty much the only thing you need from the Android SDK
This guy fucked up on every step

>>62447837
Installing a stock rom is always a pain.
There is a reason the first recommendation is to take a backup.
Unless you work for the phone company, I doubt anyone can get a virus free version anywhere.

I got cucked by kingroot too, OP, i feel your pain

Congratulations, you are too stupid to follow instructions that pajeets have no problem following.

You are literally less intelligent than a street shitter.

How does that feel?

Lol you can't brick mediatek device dumbfuck, the only way to brick it emmc are dead or usb port broken. Vcom mediatek driver need to be installed by disable the driver signature first...you did everything wrong....

sorry freedom is not for dumb people, you didn't pass the test altought some models are FUCKED but you should research that before buy

>>62447837
Ive flashed official and custom roms, custom kernels, modem and bootloader on my s6 tons of times. Maybe buy american next time, Paco.

And this kids is why you buy phones with unlocked bootloaders like the 3T.

The general rule is that if you want anything but the unrooted stock ROM then you should buy a device that's geared towards developers and enthusiasts such as a Nexus, Pixel, OnePlus, Sony (certain models), etc. Don't buy some obscure, bottom of the barrel, generic chinkshit and expect it to have any kind of decent community support, and as the saying goes don't be penny wise and pound foolish.

>calls rooting jailbreaking

>>62448485
I'm not into phones at all, so I bought the most affordable one. BLU Life one costed me about $100.
I only use my phone when I'm at work to avoid social interactions, otherwise it stays in my room collecting dust. I'm not going to pay $800 for something I barely use.

The only reason I even attempted to root it was because some dumb ublock alternative app required it.

>>62448532
>>62448559
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as "rooting" or "jailbreaking" is actually just removing the manufacturer's restrictions like a bad goy. You're running unauthorized software on the operating system of your personal tracking device. Many people call these smartphones, but they actually include a lot of cancerous shitware, or as I've started calling it, facebookmachine/muhapps.

>>62448629
If you want root then buy a developer device. That's all that anyone here can tell you.

>flash recovery for my phone using adb
>flash lineage os from their site without signing up for shit
>flash gapps from opengapps
>boots right up
>as stable as stock rom, but newer and a bit faster
>everything just works
>now have Lineage on my Nexus 5
Now do you see why you shouldn't fall for the obscure chinkphone meme? If you want to fuck with custom roms, the more popular the phone is, the better. No exceptions.

>>62448314
You forgot to add Chinese.

>>62448673
No need, I've already got root thanks to Lineage OS.
Only issue is that the phone shuts off when I switch to USB transfer mode for some reason.

If you don't have your phone in this website https://download.lineageos.org/ then you and your phone are worthless. Prove me wrong.
#protip: you can't!

Should've gotten a Redmi Note 4x™

what is with all these disgusting phone fags?
why do you care so much about them?

I have a dd-wrt flashed router, FreeNAS + ZFS server and a high-end desktop. My phone is for making calls, so I see no need to be fiddling with some little tweens custom rom.

Maybe times are changing.

>>62448658
The actually important step is called "unlocking the bootloader", which is officially allowed by some manufacturers.

Use magisk you retard

My phone is there, but I only see nightlies. What happened to snapshots?

I went through the same process for my LG G3 except I didn't attempt to install an unsupported custom ROM.

Although, the difference between you and I is I don't blame the smartphone itself on my dumb decision to try to root the phone. Completely idiotic to expect things to go perfectly fine when it's basically this analogy that >>62448122 anon mentioned.
It's your weight to carry at that point. Either suck it up with no superuser privilege or get a phone with better compatibility. Nice blog.

>>62448850
Is magisk magic enough to root my zmax 2 which can't be rooted?

>>62447837
>Use KingoRoot
Thank you for sparing me of reading the rest of your post, retard.

>>62448877
all nightlies are pretty stable

>>62448896
Do you know the concept of root?

>>62448877
Nothing, they realized that there is little point in stable snapshots as official nightlies are stable enough for everyday use.
Just don't install it on your phone if a missed call can kill someone.

>>62447837
>BLU
tl;dr anon got chink'd

>>62448877
Snapshots are just outdated nightlies.

Is this the life of an Android user? I just buy an iPhone, sign in to it then download the applications I use and I'm done. I don't even change a wallpaper. What were you wanting to do, OP? Install some cutesy girly theme or some stupid shit like that so you can post it on 4chan? Fucking queer loser. Get a life.

>Is this the life of an Android user?
It is if you want security updates for your phone after the initial 6 months.
I'll keep using Android, because I like smartphones (and Android is the only smartphone platform with many apps), but this is a disgrace.

>>62449083
'Trying' what exactly?

>>62449095
to troll. Here is another (You) but this will be the last one.

Where is the trolling you dumbfuck deluded wanker? I buy an iPhone and set it up for its life in under 20 minutes. Do you not understand how this works?

>>62449050
No, I wanted AdAway, which is apparently the only good adblocker for Android, which requires root

Same reason I'll never buy Xiaomi again. If you ever need to research a problem you will have to converse with street shitters.
