Upgrade before you root cos the upgrade will remove the root access then you'll have to root again.
already rooted, tried downloading upgrading files severally but my psiphon keeps breaking connection, moreover the file is too large... I think i can do without the upgrade 4 now. .... Thanx so much

Bro do u have any special method for downloading paid apps?
None so far. Only Poweramp needs something special like Lucky Patcher to work perfectly. I just googled the rest.

Bro, I tried that 360 privacy security app... It detected the 2 bugs responsible for taking my credit and fixed it on the app but my credit is still bin taken, at least N20 per day.
Any other solutions?

There's a link to downloading the firmware for the update a few pages back.
In the firmware file there are instructions on how to flash it to your phone.
The update allows for you to change fonts and install files to SD card

grin grin I know how you feel bro. Been there done that. You may need to be rooted but you can try it first if you dont have root access. Download Titanium back up pro then use it to locate the 2 apps and either freeze dem or uninstall dem. As for me, I uninstall the bastards dem permanently. below is a screenshot of both apps. Let me know incase you need anything.


Incase you're using titanium back up, you will need to click on the app you want to remove, then you will see the freeze or uninstall option. Good luck.

1. Extract everything inside the zip folder you downloaded.
2. Open sp flash tool
3, select the extracted scatter file in the folder you downloaded
4. Tick only the recovery.
5. Click on download to flash the twrp recovery
6. Immediately, connect your device to your computer via USB cable.
7:The Flashing process would be in progress, and a Green button would appear once the process is completed.
8. load the phone straight to recovery(power+volume up) on first boot after flashing the twrp to avoid vain efforts.
9. After that, go to the recover main menu, and then choose install, and then select the SuperSU Zip file and flash immediately.
10. Enjoyyyyyy#
Wow thanks very much bro, it worked.
