    3. Thank you too, the problem is every device has a different way to get root .
      The best way is to type the device name and the word root in Google and you will get the Wright way to get root or search the xda developers forum for your device

  2. Greetings, it seems like I am unable to downgrade my device from the S111 to S110 which means I can't flash custom rom and custom recovery. The sop of downgrading was:
    1. Load S110 scatter file on sp flash tool.
    2. Check DA DL all with checksum
    3. Turn off the device, unplug the battery, plug-in the cable to the device.
    4. click firmware upgrade
    5. plug in the cable to the laptop.
    6. The device is detected and the whole process finish successfully (until the green round image).
    7. Unplug the cable, put the battery on the device, press the power button
    8. Walah! The device isn't even booting up.

    So do you mind telling me where did I go wrong? After the failure with s110, I flashed the s111 again and it boot up normally.

    4. Duuuuh...maybe this is too late, but that means you are hard-bricked. When flashing using SP Flash Tool or similar, make sure to uncheck PRELOADER so there is 0% chance of hard-brick to occur.
