    some one made a video, and did not credit me for finding this stuff

    I can tell everyone, that is one of the reasons I do not develop any more, and If I ever find a way to disable the WP on the newer phones or anything else like this, I will try to make some type of app to perform it and charge everyone 10 or 20 bucks for the app, or just keep it a secret.

    I WOULD BE CAREFUL DOING THIS WITH THE ZTE PRESTIGE

    IT SEEM THE NEW VERSIONS OF SOME TYPE OF ROOT CHECKING IN IT, AND IF YOU ROOT YOUR PHONE IT WILL NO LONGER BOOT PAST THE ZTE LOGO, EXCEPT IF YOU ARE BOOTING INTO FTM MODE

    So you root with pc first then use terminal to do the reboot and rw?

    this is how I would try it

    Use a spare computer if you have one, KingoRoot is kind of shady, and installs crap apps
    If you do not have a spare computer, do some type of system backup on your computer or use the Windows system restore and make a restore point.

    disable any security apps that came with phone or that you installed on phone
    enable unknown sources on phone
    enable developer options on phone
    enable usb debugging on phone
    hook phone up to computer and install the usb drivers on computer
    obtain a copy of adb and install it on the computer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
    open windows command prompt on computer and type

    adb devices

    you should see your device listed there, if not something is wrong and you need to figure out what it is before you continue

    if your device is listed type

    adb reboot disemmcwp

    the phone should reboot at this point, if it does not, then something is not right

    then install KingoRoot on computer and root the phone

    you only do that if you want to re-enable system write protection, most people dont do it

    Understandable, Sir. Your help has always been wonderful ..but it's only been a cpl hrs, he's probably still trying to get it right or really excited and messing with it. Maybe he got too excited and accidentally erased a wrong file.. [emoji13][emoji92]

    If you are using Win10, there's some settings/boxes in control panel or UEFI somewhere that prevent driver installation until unchecked. Unchecked that box & install the drivers. That box will reset itself upon reboot but drivers will remain installed. FYI

    Get your drivers installed first or you'll have a massive trouble getting anything else done at all in Windows. Hence, one of the may reasons to use Linux (no drivers needed). Working with Android in Windows is like using a conversion of a conversion, which obviously doesn't work well since Android is MADE from Linux

    Your ZTE drivers are within the actual device that can be accessed when plugging in USB and selecting "install drivers".. After you unchecked that box first

    Can you get temp root with kingroot? If you can get temp root you'll be able to use the command directly on your phone with a terminal emulator app.
