Hi, i tried here and it seems it worked, but it seems that i can't get into recovery because when i press volume+ and power i get this android picture with the message "bad command". Is there something else i could try to get TWRP installed? Thanks.

Which TWRP are you using?
Flashing goes correct?
Are you going into recovery after flashing without restarting the system?
Or there is restart of the system in the meantime?

Hi, it seems that the flashing went correct, at least using the SP Flash Tools, i got this message saying that everything went well. The recovery and the scatter file i downloaded from another forum, i don't know if i'm allowed to talk about it, it's in russian. That was the only source of information i found for this smartphone. Anyway, after flashing the recovery nothing happened at the smartphone. I had to manually power it on holding power and volume +, after that i choose recovery, but i can't find how can i flash the root zip file. I tried copying these files to the internal memory and to my microsd card, but i never find a way to flash these files. Any help would be extremely helpful. Thanks.

It is simple. When you start TWRP recovery you should swipe right to allow changes.

Could you please share with me a picture of the TWRP recovery? Because i'm starting to think that this isn't in fact installed at my phone.

don' t you think you should show what you have? I have it installed.
It is easier to help you. Show what you see after recovery starts
You can install check root apk. to check if your root is ok

Thanks, you're right. Ok, this is what happened, i installed the recovery, or so i think, using the sp flash tools and the scatter file, ok. Also the drivers were sucessfully installed. Just as a minor note i'm using windows 7 x64 and a 2.0 usb port. I activated the developer options and usb debuggin mode.

After the process i power on the smartphone holding power and volume +, this is what i see:

After that i choose recovery and this is the android picture that it shows:

And finally this is the last picture i see:

Even if i choose apply update from Sd card i am never able to access the internal memory or my micro sd card.

Oh, right, i also installed Root Checker from Play Store, it says that my device isn't rooted.

You DO NOT have TWRP recovery
You have to try once more
After you choose recovery on your 1 photo your phone should start and you should see TWRP logo

Yes, you're right. I was about to ask your TWRP recovery when i noticed that i was using the original recovery, and not the TWRP. That's the worst part about finding information originally in russian translated to another language. The real TWRP recovery was in another topic. I just installed the way i did before and the first thing i saw was the TWRP logo. I flashed the superSU and now my device is officially rooted. Thanks for your time and your help, jan177.

Yes. ok.
your 2 photo is typical for stock recovery, so that is why it was clear that TWRP is not installed

I caution everybody to flash new ROM. Do it when you know what you are doing.
Perhaps only when you know that the ROM is on OTA.

It looks as if u have chosen wrong action.
Format+ download.
It should be download.

Format+ download went with an error so probably it is formatted and bricked.
Question is does the phone reacts when connected to PC?
If so you should try flash the ROM.
Use different SP Flash tool.
I use 1520

You do not have to do anything with the phone boatloader etc. except what I in many places described.
Just use SPflash .
Download
connect phone.
restart in recovery
restart in system

If you have problems with starting to download then keep the battery, phone turned OFF.
Or start download phone without battery and then put the battery in

East root?

I was able to install TWRP and it seems to be working as I can backup and restore with ease, which is good, because rooting doesn't seem to work for me. I install the supersu ZIP via TWRP and it installs with no problems. However, on boot, the phone hangs as the boot animation. I am thinking it could be due to new software from Doogee, I have DOOGEE-XT5max.20160726 for my version. Can you tell me what version you ran this with?

Thanks,
Jonathan
