Root Metro Pcs Alcatel Fierce XL?

Can someone help me? I have soft-bricked my Alcatel and don't know what to do. It just stays stuck at the MetroPCS screen and doesn't go on from there. What I did was I wanted to modify the Android System by using Lucky Patcher. The "patch" I used was one where it allowed to stack different versions of the app. I allowed it to happen but that's where the problem started. At first I went to the Android system recovery and put reboot now and it would allow me to use my phone as I would regularly would use it, but I noticed it was very slow and launched apps very slowly. Then I decided to factory reset my phone, but when it relaunched my phone it wouldn't do anything so that's where I'm at as of right now plz help

Ive got what you need to fix your issue. Its not letting me upload the boot & recovery .imgs nor the .zip i made for MetroPCS Fierce XL 5054n. If you email me at kgeorge41992@gmail.com then i can send you the files. I've got a library of anything you could think of for any android device. Let me know what you need & ill get it to you or direct you to where you can get it

I have an Alcatel One Touch Fierce XL right now with Xposed Framework installed YouTube AdAway YouTube background play Lucky Patcher X installer all running on the phone you're saying will be bricked please do not say stuff that you can't prove sir.... is there anything else you'd like to say about how this phone will be ruined if you do what all those are from my phone in which you speak of so what are your credentials sir why do you feel you can speak so confidently on something you obviously know nothing about



what framework and custom recovery did you use?

Is this phone the same as the Fierce 2? My Model number is 5405N and it is running 5.1.1 Lollipop, the Metro PCS guy said it was brand new and they only received 2, It says it has a 16GB ROM, and was told it had 16GB storage, it only shows 11.22 for storage. I wanna root and install a custom recovery but have found no support, thinking about returning it tomorrow and getting the Galaxy Core Prime or The LG Leon. Any thoughts? It also has a battery he put in that is now unremovable.
I have owned both the Galaxy Core Prime and the LG Leon and they are both slow and laggy and basically just complete crap IMHO, and now I have the Alcatel One Touch Fierce XL. The sales person was 100% wrong... it has 16gb storage and 2gb ram. On a personal note... of the 3 phones mentioned I must say that the Alcatel One Touch Fierce XL is by far a superior phone in EVERY aspect... so there's my 2 cents :)

Just rooted mine with kingroot and got rid of unwanted apps and I'm impressed, snappy and plenty of space. Only a matter of time before we get the bootloader and the recovery ☺

Can you do me a solid , and give me step by step instructions on how to root my Fierce XL with KingRoot? Can you root this device without a PC or laptop? I've only rooted an Asus Memopad HD7, and a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4.

-Thank you for your time
