Your phone NEEDS to be recognized as an "ADB Device" on your pc, or else this won't work!
Download this ROOTING SCRIPT
Unpack the RAR.
Double click the TPSparkyRoot.bat
TAKE YOUR TIME!!! Your phone will re-boot several times, be patient!!! The procedure should look something like this:
On success, your phone should now have a "Superuser" app installed and it should be rooted :-)
YOU ARE DOING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!
Credit goes to "TPSparky"?!?
I found this useful information here
posted by "Vitamin80". Thank you so much for this :-)




GREAT....Thank You ColonelZap for this sharing!
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure :-)
DeleteAs a matter of fact, I THINK this might work on any MT6575 phones that have ICS on it, but I can't guarantee it!
thank you bro
DeleteHi,does the root will work on an Android version 4.0.6 in. My haipai noble?
DeleteIf your phone runs on ICS (and NOT just some fake ICS version that is actually Gingerbread) and if your phone has the MT6575 CPU then yes, this should work as well.
Deleteit worked perfectly thanks a lot...why don't linking in androidiani.it? it would save me a lot of time....thank you...
DeleteCongratulations!! And feel free to link this wherever you like :-)
DeleteHello...is there a difference between MT6575 and MTK6575 ?
DeleteWill this rooting method work on MTK6575 and ICS 4.0.6 ?
Also, I found a later(dated) TPSparkyRoot May 12, 2012 size 1627...compared to the TPSparkyRoot you show: 21st Jan, 2012 size 1552...Any ideas ?
Thanks a bunch. Great work.
Hi :-) The "right" term is MT6575, a lot of people write MTK just because it its made by MediaTeK ;-)
DeleteI don't know if it will work, just give it a try, I don't think it can do any harm. It will either work or not work.
thz you so much ColonalZap :D
DeleteThanks m8te.
ReplyDeleteWorks fine on Ihtc x310e :-)
How do you get it to show properly in device manager? Mine has a ? on windows 7 x64 mt65xx android phone is what it shows.
ReplyDeleteYou need to install K1ADBdriver (google it, lenovo drivers) and install manually from the /drivers/k1adb folder on your c drive.
ReplyDeletek1 ADb driver is for win xp
ReplyDeletemy i9220 is not getting recognized on my win7 lenovo laptop, i also have an issue with storage.
ReplyDeletefor some reason i have following:
1. Internal storage - 512 mb
2. USB Storage : 2Gb
3. SD card (i input this one since i put my own 4gb SD card into an empty spot..)
I have Copilot installed and i cannot have software or maps moved to this 4gb card for some reason.... damn it
sorry...to clarify, i have officially 3 storages: internal/usb? whatever this is/ and SDcard/
DeleteIs there a way to consolidate the 2nd and 3rd?? to only have internal and SD? like any other phones?
Can we please have a comparison between hdc plus and star note i9220.
ReplyDeleteAnd also can you plz make a neat chart of all galxy note clone availabel ,its so confusing their are so many of them i hope you will !
Thankyou
Hello I've got the same phone but my screen won't turn around anymore with youtube etc how do I fix this?
ReplyDeleteMaybe your "automtic screen rotation" is off in the display settings?
DeleteNope its on... and now?
DeleteHmmmm?!? Maybe a factory reset will help?
ReplyDeleteI did that 3 times nd didn't work...
ReplyDeleteIt worked pefectly on my X310e.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!!!!
my speaker wont work i got my phone now for 2 weeks and my speaker wont work for 8 days... what should i do its broke...
ReplyDeleteHey Colonalzap,
ReplyDeletedo you think this script will work for my Star Note i9220?
Greetings,
Trend
ColonelZap* sorry ^^
DeleteNever mind,
ReplyDeletejust tried it and it worked perfectly.
Thanks for this.
Hello colonel Hello ref the storage problem I think it is generic
ReplyDeleteI have managed to set the external inserted SD card( TF)as main install destination but device MUST BE ROOTED to work
I did it using the M44-toolbox app and install it to device
in the engineers setting "android MTK" and then look for the app2sd/storage setting just set it to external SD card..now i have reinstalled everything on the external sd card about 3GB worth of sat navs big files etc and still have the 2GB internal sd storage free not even touched it.
hi AJT .... your method though promising, it wont work on my phone. it still recognizes only Internal Memory (512mb) and USB storage (internal 2Gb)...it will not take External TF as external. Once you hit save in M44toolbox it will still save to "external"but this external is actually internal USB Storage, and no the inserted TF card.... damn it...there must be a workable solution!

hey danke für die schnelle hilfe jetzt wirds zwar angezeigt aber der root funzt nicht :-(
DeleteEinfach weiter probieren und denk dran, das Phone muß nach jeden Schritt erst komplett neu booten bevor man weiter machen kann.
DeleteViel Erfolg :-)
upps falscher alarm dude! =) aber danke nochmal
DeleteHat funktioniert? :-)
Deletejep thx!
Deleteso ich weiss das ich ein wenig lästig bin aber lieber frag ich einen pro bevor ich alles kaputt mache!!! =)
hab das handy jetzt gerootet aber wie kann ich jetzt einstellen das die apps und die spiele auf der sd karte abgespeichert werden???
und nicht auf den internen usb speicher? mfg
DeleteWie das genau geht, weiß ich nicht, irgendwie kann man den Speicher "ummounten". Schau Dich mal bei chinamobiles.org um, da wird so etwas für diverse Phones diskutiert.
DeleteDarf ich dich virtuell umarmen ;-)
DeleteDein Tipp mit http://junefabrics.com/android/ hat funktioniert
Ich hab noch nicht Gerootet, aber MyphonExplorer findet das Star Note jetzt!!
Als nächstes, werde ich das Script ausprobieren.
DANKE !!!!
windows 7. phone is recognized as "android adb interface" Did i download the wrong driver? Also when i run the script it say's "adb is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file" ? need help. Thanks !!

DeleteIt's good for me now!!! just install the driver above ;)
DeletePdaNetA350 lässt sich bei meinem WIN7 über VirtualBox auf dem MacBook nicht installieren, das X26i wird einfach nicht an USB akzeptiert (erkannt schon) aber nicht installiert. Gibt es da noch andere Treiber?
ReplyDeleteHello colonel,...i want to do a factory reset on my Haipai noble i9220,...i have already rooted my phone with the root script on you blog,..if i do a factory reset,..will i need to root it again after i do a factory reset?,..thank you for your time
ReplyDeleteHello colonel,..i want to do a factory reset on my Haipai noble i9220,..and it is rooted,i rooted it it with the root script you provided on your blog (thanks a lot)...will doing a factory reset 'unroot' my phone?,..will i have to root my phone again after i do the factory reset?...thank you for your time
ReplyDeleteHi :-) I really can't tell you, give it a try. IF you need to root it again, that shouldn't be too complicated, right?
DeleteGood luck :-)
hey colonel is there a way that you can flash phone to stock i have a x26i i got on ebay and there is so many things not working and i think they might of messed with things and they didnt know what they were doing but can i flash it to stock like out of box new? If so how and where do i go because i cant seem to find any kind of support for it.
ReplyDeleteHi :-)
DeleteI'm sorry, I don't have a firmware for the x26i, so I have no idea how to flash that phone :-(
Have you done a factory reset, yet? Maybe that will help?
with PDANet it works great on SimValley SP-120
ReplyDeletethanks for the tip

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI have a B79 (mtk 6575, ics) phone which is working fine. In Google play it is recognized as "Alps B79". I want to put a new screenguard on it as the original has bubbles.
Can you please tell me this phone is the copy of which original (like HTC 1X or something?) so that I can get screenguards?
Thank you so much in advance for your time and help.
Hi Colonel Zap...I have purchased a Haipai i9220 and inserted a 16gb micro SD card, but this is read only :( how can I make this writable?
ReplyDeleteThanks in advance
Edd
Hi :-) Maybe you can try to format the card from within the phone?
DeleteThabks for quick response. I have tried this and also on pc but still no joy. It just seems strange that the card is read only in the phone but on pc I can put music etc on no problem. I basically just want to be able to direct camera photos to sdcard2 aswel as apps if possible.
DeleteEdd
same problem here.. also cannot find drivers for win7.. can see phone only as removable disk
DeleteAs for being removable disk only. Don't choose mass storage device. Change it to media player then it should show as an adb device in manage devices on pc
DeleteEdd
Hallo Colonel,
ReplyDeleteich versuche meine Haipai i9220 zu rooten. Unter Winxp habe ich den Android Composite ADB Controller in der Sytemsteuerung. Aber TPSparkyRoot meldet ständig :"error: no device found", zwischenzeitlich hatt ich mal "eror: more than one device found".
Was mache ich falsch? Muss der USB-Speicher aktiviert werden oder nicht?
Hallo :-)
DeleteSchwer zu sagen wo das Problem liegt? Auf jeden Fall muß "USB-Debugging" im Handy aktiviert sein, also nicht als Massenspeicher verbinden. Hast Du mal verschiedene USB-Ports oder mal ein anderes USB Kabel getestet?
Hallo
DeleteDanke für die schnelle Antwort, ich werde das mal probieren.
Device not found error ....in device manager android tablet coming
ReplyDeleteDriver not work for me, i have win7 x64 and haipai noble i9220 (model a9550) with mtk6575 and ics. Please help me and send me correct driver, i search on google but nothing :'(
ReplyDeletehey can u help in how to update it its 4.0 to 4.0.3
ReplyDeleteif any suggestion plzz mail me at yasir.k@programmer.net
It worked for me also. HDC One S J1000
ReplyDeleteI had to run it twice. For some reason the UID was not right on the first try. Thanks Colonel
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI have a HDC i9220, bought in Fasrcardtech, with the BUILDING NUMBER: ALPS.ICS.mp.v1.11; CUSTOM BUILD VERSION: 1336364185
1.The Google Location service is not functioning. Although I have the option enabled, none of the Apps recognize that the option is enable.
2.As you know 2 GB is nowadays a limited space. Because of that I bought a micro-SD Card of 32 GB, but my software version has a bug, which forbids to move apps to the external SD card. Right now I have the USB storage full and the micro-SD card useless!
Can fix this issues or send a new ROM?
This would be really cool :)
Thanks in advance
By the way the rooting process worked!

No radio buttons to make selection.

Hey Colonel,
ReplyDeleteglaubst Du, es ginge auch mit dem MT6577?
Liebe Grüße,

Hey Colonel. Hope you get around to giving me a reply. I wanted to try out your rooting method, but I can't get my phone to be recognized as ADB device. I have the exact phone you're reffering to, with android 4.0.6. I activated the usb debugging in the phone and tried all of the usb ports and it finds it as an MT65XX Android phone. I have windows 7, if it helps. Thank you in advance if you can reply.
ReplyDeleteManaged to do it. Now I have a bit of a problem because I saw here that no one gave a good answer if this works with android 4.0.6 and I would not like to 'break' my phone. Do you have any idea if it will be ok ?
DeleteHi :-)
DeleteIn my opinion this rooting script is "harmless", it either works or won't work, I don't think your phone is in any danger. But that's just my humble opinion, I am not an expert!
Hey again :) Unfortunately it did not work. It just keeps on saying 'error: the device is not found' :( I used PdaNet 3.50, activated it onthe phone, as well as the pc and still nothing. I pressume it is because it doesn't work on android 4.0.6? The one thing I did not try is running the .bat from the phone memory. Is that how I was supposed to do it? If not, would you be able to give me a short explination on how to do it so at least the phone is recognized by the .bat and see if I can root it or not ? Thank you in advance and thanks for the previous reply. Cheers!
DeleteHi :-) You run the *.bat from your pc while your phone is connected as an ADB-Device (check your device manager). If that doesn't work, you can also try this rooting script:

Hallo ColonelZap,
ReplyDeleteWürde mich freuen könntest du mir helfen.
Habe ein I9220 mit 5,3 Inch Farbe Weiss bei Fastcardtech bestellt und auch bekommen.
Leider wurde mir nicht wie bestellt ein i9220 mit 5,3 inch geliefert sonderm eins mit 5 inch und auch noch in schwarz.
Sind die bei Fastcardtech immer so unseriös?
und wo kann ich was besetllen wo ich auch das bekomme was ich bestelle?
Jetzt zum Problem.
Das Handy funktioniert Supi, aber leider wird die einesetzte Speicherkarte nicht vom System genutzt.
Zwar sind die 16GB im System drinne man kann aber keine Apps drauf Speichern.
Gibts da ne Lösung? Frag dich weil du Schon sowas wie ein Guru bist im China Handy segment.
Danke schon mal
gruss
Hallo :-) Eigentlich sollte FCT auch das liefern, was Du bestellst!
DeleteDie externe Speicherkarte ist eigentlich nur für externe Daten gedacht, so Sachen wie MP3, Bilder, Videos, etc. Das ist normal, das hat nichts mit Chinahandys zu tun, so funktioniert Android. Es soll aber Möglichkeiten geben Programmdaten trotzdem auf die Speicherkarte zu verschieben, suche mal im Playstore nach "links2sd", damit kenne ich mich aber NULL aus :-(
Super Danke für die schnelle Antwort.
DeleteDarf Ich dich noch was Fragen hoffe dich nicht zu nerven.
Ich bin so Positiv überascht von diesem Handy das Ich mir noch ein bestellen möchte.
Welches Gerät kannst du mir empfehlen was gut ist.
Sollte ein grösseres Display als 5 inch habe dualssim u.s.w
Und vor allem wo kann ich es bestellen den bei Fastcardtech bestell ich nicht mehr,
nachdem mir nach falsche leiferung mitgeteilt wurde ich habe doch das erhalten was ich bestellt habe.
gruss aus Aschaffenburg
Hi :-) Mir hat das Hero H9500+ (auch als Zopo ZP900 bekannt) sehr gut gefallen. Das sollten mehrere Shops im Angebot haben, Erfahrungen habe ich bislang aber außer mit FCT nur mit Merimobiles gemacht. Schaue Dich einfach mal etwas um :-)
DeleteFastcardtech is VERY unreliable.
DeleteI ordered a quad band phone for USA, and they shipped me a Dual Band Tinji Mobile Phone that cannot work in USA. After much struggle, I had to spend $25 out of my pocket to ship it back and get my refund from PayPal.
They are Jokers, and no one should buy from them.
wow habe es mir angeschaut ,sieht gut aus.
ReplyDeletehat es auch echt 5.3 ?
werde mein glück bei merimobiles probieren.
danke
Ja, hat wirklich 5.3 Zoll :-) 1-2 Videos habe ich auf YT, ist wirklich ein gutes Handy, 1GB Ram helfen wirklich :-)
ReplyDeleteDanke für die Antwort .
ReplyDeletewerde mir es wahrscheinlich bestellen.
wobei der Note 2 clone HTC N7100 mit 5,5 inch
auch Geil ist.

do you know a solution? thank you!
oops sorry i have the 100m google 4S / Star w007 but im here because i read somewhere this rooting proces would also work on my phone
Deletenote: i think i need some kind of drivers?
You need the adb-drivers. Install PDAnet on your pc, it USUALLY comes with the drivers you need.
DeleteOkay i succesfully rooted my device using SparkyRoot and the solution was installing the PdaNet+ drivers from

thank you very much!
