Root ZTE Warp Sync - All Things Root Guide

Ya damn I'm gonna root it asap no messin around. Ugghhhh I've never had to deal with all this update crap. when my ma got her Leon back when she had it it was just updated to 5.1.1 off the rip didn't have a cancel option or anything. so ya this is all a lil new to me & I just wanna do all this right so she doesn't slip the update in on me. uggghhhh!!!!
 
For one, I can now transfer file from internal to external SD without conflict/permission/access denial that I was getting previously. I also do a lot of theming on my device (FROM my device) itself without decompiling and some of my APK's I use for the process lock up or refuse to rename/work properly the way I'm used to (ICS, JB, ect..) And the SD fix took care of that issue. It changes something in framework that allows better capabilities & functions, also don't have to manually rename my dang files every time I tweak an app. That was what I had to do (rename) every time I changed an image in an app for theming. Kinda ticked me off.. The SDfix app made my job way less frustrating.
But is kk SD fix only for a kk ROM? I don't think you can use it on anything but kk, but I figured kk & above would be same deal but SD fix won't work on anything but kk for me at least any ROM I run after kk, LP etc. & the SD fix apk says I'm already able to do what this apk would have been able to help me with. another thing I could move apks to SD card on y last device running LP 5.1.1 but not on this warp sync running LP 5.1.1..... ya idk.
 
I'm new to this forum and I know this is a rooting guide, but I recently soft-bricked my warp sync because of a system upgrade. I tried flashing the custom rom but it says signature verification failed. I didn't have root or have unlocked bootloader before bricking and when I tried to get into FTM mode it's just a black screen. Is there any signed stock rom to try?

Well when using twrp u don't need any sign zips I would try to flash twrp again then a lp ROM if that don't work u need a new device sorry bro theres no tool fix for the sync u never update any device while using a custom recovery
 
Are u serious well start looking on amazon for a new device not getting it u didn't have root so I'm guessing u never had twrp from the get go peacefully toss ur device in the can bro
Ok, so I tried one rom originally for ZTE ZMax, and it said failed to verify whole-file signature, is there anything I can do to fix that?
 
Can't seam to get B05 ROM to flash for me. I've redownloaded twice to no avail. And does anybody know what part/file I rename to get a nandroid to be recognized within TWRP? its like there's no backup at all in TWRP its just blank but shows up in file manager.
 
And I have been trying a lot of ROMs to see which is best on battery etc. So does anybody out there know if any other ROMs from the zmax besides Broken os work on the Warp Sync? Thanks in advance I'm just trying to find a nice ROM that has good battery life. I like Blisspop and how smooth it is and its dark themeing especially the dark theme option for the SMS! Love it. But battery life isn't all that on it. Its like all these ROMs have features I like a some I dont. So I'm just trying to find a happy medium. If anybody has ran any other ROMs from the zmax besides broken os please let me know which ROM/ROMs work and work with synthetic kernel or the nameless kernel thanks all!!!!
 
OP updated, added BlissPop link to Root guide. Dang good ROM..
Is the battery life bad though? I didn't really give it much of a chance after I heard it wasn't so hot on battery. I guess there's supposedly a bit of battery drainage while she's suppose to be asleep. [emoji42]

I'll run the battery tests tonight but 1%-5% overnight is normal tho as long as ur not downloading/uploading files. Don't avoid any of phen's ROMs cuz someone else complains unless it's a complete deal breaker like no booting. Everyone has different uses, functions, and related drainage. Just check it out for a cpl days and see for yourself

The dev him self said the device wasn't fully sleeping causing some drain

Well right the percentage dropping a couple digits here and there while you and you're device is sleeping is pretty normal. I might just have to give er another go around. I definitely meant nothing negative in any way twords any of Phenoms ROMs by any means I actually liked/like BlissPops look best of all with its dark theming option. Always love a dark theme behind everything. Its just easyer to see. & I know it can't be a heck of alot but it helps save a lil juice as well. Looks nicer in my opinion and um ya, its safe to say I'm a sucker for & love & feel it would be sweet if dark theming was always an option on a custom ROM. All the way down to dark theming SMS apks. With dark theme actually working on SMS. I've ran a lot of ROMs that have the option to switch SMS apk to a dark theme but nothing changes after sliding the lever etc. [emoji54]
