I bought this phone, bricked it while trying to root and then install an Allview ROM on it. Unfortunately my phone now send some SMS to some foreign number every time I reboot it. Can anyone help with the Nigerian ROM for this phone? Thanks in advance.

I'd have helped you with my recovery backup but I cant upload a 2gb file. I reside in Abeokuta.

Congratulations if you have the gionee m5. Pls save the space here for useful information and discussion by not bricking your phone with an "unknown" twrp or zip su file. If you need help on how to use this monster to the max just ask and you will be taught. I still maintain that you have no need for rooting when the m5 has all you need.
Let me explain.
I used to root my former android devices to 1)tweak the power consumption 2)install dangerous 3rd party apps. 3)for the fun of it.

So I don't really do anymore.

Those of you talking about battery....
This phone with 2G/3G/4G on can last a full day.
Without putting on your data it stays 2days and 8hrs (I have tried this, trust me).
I played Asphalt 8 Airborne for 8hrs straight and the battery was 21% before I switched to Extreme Power mode.
No one should discourage you if you intend to get this device.
If you also feel not comfortable asking questions here just feel free to chat with me on WhatsApp 07034686242.
Have a great day.

Unless it's another Konga you're talking about,there are more than five sellers of the device on their marketplace or maybe you are looking for a discount on the price but don't claim on the device being scarce 'cause it's not..

I have this phone, however am skeptical about rooting it cos everything I require from it for now it renders to me without rooting. For those of you still wanting to root theirs, you can download the 4.5 version of kingroot, the root access is there now but make sure u have an internet connection. Good luck

it's a bug from android on 5.1
just update d application if there is new version from the store or clear data and cache of d application or you ignore it.
I used to ignore my gmail app till I updated it and it's back to its right senses.
