ramdoon boot get hot im done
You Got A Bad Unit.... I can game all day and no heat issues... and certainly no reboots.. :cool:
Owned the Stylo 2 Plus for 12 days before I switched to this.. you are going to love it.. especially rooted.. ;)

P.S.
But having owned both.. no doubt the Zmax Pro is still the better device.. and it's cheaper.. I'm also looking at the Blu Vivo XL which has also obtained root.. has a custom rom.. and more software tweaks bone stock. :cool:

Guess I got one too. Finally decommissioned my Zmax. Mrs. Couldn't take anymore. Got her a used mint LG G2 and she hates that thing too. Looks like she's getting a black Friday edition Stylo 2 plus.... Women...
 
I am helping here coz ZTE is turtle slow in updating to android N. Hope fully once this is rooted this will get the Android N update via root. Messi have you tried ES file explorer? I have put init on search icon there and all the rc files you are looking for is there. You can also read the build.prop in es file explorer hope it helps you. You can also read the default.prop there.

Yesterday I tried using ES File Explorer to copy the init files but the task failed. I can see them in different file explorers but can't copy them.
 
Is there an Es file explorer that runs on windows and try copy command there? When I click an rc file in the more tab there are a lot of options can it help dissect that rc file from options there?

I also tried to turn on root explorer there is an error can't run on device.

You can't turn on root explorer in ES File Explorer because that option requires root first. I tried looking at my phone's files just now while hooked up to a PC but the root file system wasn't visible.

A little Help guys;

Try total commander by ghister in playstore.

Just tried it, same result as other file managers. I could see root but couldn't copy any files.
 
Guys save your trys , it's near impossible to copy and view the content of some system files without having root permissions.
