Tecno N3 has been quite successful in Kenya. This one will even make more sales among the middle income earners. It will compete with Intel Yolo, LG Optimus L4, Micromax A116 and Nokia Lumia 520.
Very soon it will be launched in Kenya...very soon...

klens: Easiest way to Root MediaTek MT6577 devices running Android 4.0 or up, even devices with the dual core Qualcomm S4 processor can be rooted by this as long as it is on Android 4.x. I only tested it With Tecno N7 it work perfectly it is the best method because it won't brick you're phone. I will soon test it with Tecno F7 when I format my laptop. First, you need to properly install the ADB drivers to do that 1st download these 3 files you will use throughout the process. MT6577 USB drivers link http:///AGRk0tVR , Root with restore link http:///6wGVUPZV and moborobo for installing the required drivers you can skip this if you know how to Instal drivers or uninstalled it from your system and Android after use link http:///NwRlgG02 .place the three files in your desktop and unpack them. Install moborobo go to your phone setting and enable USB Debugging by going to Settings > Development. Connect your device to your computer with your USB cable don't mount the mass memory and open the Moborobo app.which you installed, Moborobo will attempt to install the necessary drivers. Just allow it to do the changes on your computer .after properly installed the drivers close moborobo. Then open Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18_2.7z and Execute the RunMe.bat file if you are on Windows. A command prompt will open.

Root with Restore by Bin4ry Just enter 1 as your option. It will now do its task. after that Click restore mydata ignore that encryption password thing, wait for the process to finish. Your device will restart, and if you see the SUPER SU icon on your apps drawer it means that you had successfully rooted the phone. If it work for you let me know
pls wat is dis rooting all about, can u explain it 2 me?

the screen in the rece bolt looks like a mirror while the f7 screen is clear black. you can google 'clear black'. clear black displays are more legible under bright sunlight.
