Hi,

A thread has been created and was deleted.. so, as I tried it out, here are the steps..

Disclaimer : I m not responsible and report what has been working for my case which was as well leading to no data lost, no wipe so far.
Note : Having an alternate recovery (TWRP instead of 3e) would avoid a successfull any future phone update done through the menu. Updates will then have to be pushed with SP_Flash_Tool
Thanks : doogeemobile.com / original xda thread by gramolitero


What could be needed : -> Same tools and steps as the Doogee X5, except the Scatted for MT6735 and recovery.img files.
SP_Flash_Tools and Doogee X5 procedure
TWRP Recovery file, in English
+ Attached Scatter for Mediatek MT6735
- Optional- Doogee X5Pro Rom

Steps :
- Download/Unpack FlashTools, run Flash_tool.exe as an Administrator
- Select "Download Agent" and input MKT_AllInOne_DA.bin
- Select "scatter-Loading" and search MT6735_Android_scatter.txt
- Select "Download Only"
- Uncheck all boxes
- Checkmark and change the path of recovery file to be replaced.
- Make sure the connection is made through USB in the options (See screenshot)
- Turn off your phone, remove the battery and replace it after some seconds (and don't turn on the phone).
- Press “Download” button to start and connect your phone into the computer via USB data cable.
- The process will start and a red progress bar will appear after color purple, yellow.
- And green circles in a new window is then displayed.. -> OK
- Finish !

Once this recovery has been done.
- Boot the phone with Power and Vol+ simultaneously.
- Select "Recovery" with VolUp key, validate with VolDown key.
- Plug the phone to the PC, and drop the BETA-SuperSu.v220 on the SD Card
- Install SuperSU then reboot.

The phone is now rooted.. place to Xposed, or any apps through the TWRP recovery.

Regards
Pierrick

Sooo, im from Canada and it won't work over here cause the Band Frequencies are not selected. I can see the right one I need to select, but they are blacked out. Will rooting the phone unlock those bands so I can choose the right frequency for Canada?

Love the phone, just whish I could use it here :p

Hold your horses boys. It's a new phone so it will take some time until there is a custom ROM.
Hopefully someone will port the CyanogenMod to this nice mobile.
Something else, has anyone tried the OTG functions? Can it read a thumb drive properly? I hope it has V4L2 drivers when I receive mine.

Does the twrp recovery actually work. I've flashed it to my phone and it doesn't work. Has anybody got any other links. Also the website where the recovery file is linked is blocked by windows

Worked perfectly, thank you!

If this helps anyone, I had issues getting the drivers installed, I followed this thread here; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2180436

It kept appearing and disappearing in Device manager, just click it as soon as it appear and then install the drivers. If it disappears it does not matter at that point

    Dear friends!
    I'm tune kernel everyday. You replies very important for me.
    Bu nothing donate from any forgin's peoples was do.
    Make me cookies, make me happi!

    Seriously, now I make x64 kernel 5.1 and will come many ROM's for x64 OS.

    That was quick, @crazytiti! Kudos for finding the cause and coming up with a working solution!

    I was working at it, too, after your first post. It looks like in R17, they tried to add the proper battery capacity to the power_profile.xml (2400 mAh instead of 1000), but deleted all other values in that file!
    I copied the R15 file, just like crazytiti, but updated the battery capacity value to 2400. And packaged the new framework-res.apk in a flashable zip file for TWRP. Download here.

    I am happy to report that Kingroot apk now successfully roots X5 Pro with latest updates. Works a treat! No tricks needed.
    Just install Kingroot and run it, phone will reboot, and bingo done!

    mokkayy ...
    So i get the framework-res.apk from R15 and R17
    unpack them with apk multi tool
    compare the /framework-res/res/xml/power_profile.xml file
    => R17 seems broken little size / less text in it
    So i repack the apk with the R15 file
    Put it back on the phone using TWRP file manager (DON'T DO IT WHILE RUNNING YOU WILL CRASH THE PHONE AND MAKE IT UNABLE TO BOOT :crying: )
    And now ....
    nothing it's still broken. EDIT => it's working !!!! (after a complete charge you ll have to wait to have first stats)
    attached the R15 R17 framework-res.apk and the modified R17 apk
    EDIT2 : please use the one by Tzul it have the original modification from doogee (battery 2400 vs 1000) + it's a recovery flashable zip, see next post on next page
