Just the other day I published an article on this blog titled ‘How to Root Tecno N3 Android using Pook & Ministro II’ and some of you have asked me via emails to write on how to root Tecno N7. Tecno N7 is among the series of Tecno Android phones that has caught the attention of mobile phone users; Tecno Android phones have provided mobile phone users with cheap Android Smartphones.
Running on Android 4.0.4 mobile OS, the Tecno N7 is an awesome Smartphone and rooting it will provide you with a higher privilege and you can tweak your device as you want.

DroidVPN will provide you with unlimited bandwidth for your browsing. So let’s see how to root Tecno N7 the easy way.

Hello Mavtrevor,

Android is the way forward bro…you are missing out of the opportunity to ‘own’ your Phone. I meant own by having super user access and determine what and how your phone will be, rooting your Android phone will give you absolute control over it, you can tweak it as you like, run custom mods on it etc.
I have gone through the steps but couldn’t succeed. It gets stuck at step #7 of the superoneclick. Someone told me i shouldn’t put the phone on usb mass storage. I have three options under usb connect:
1. USB Mass Storage
2. Mass Media
and 3. Camara.
Am running Win 7 64 bit.
The phone is in debug mode.
Thanks.
The process as directed on the article is straight forward, it was tested before the article was published, start all over following every step carefully and you will be able to root your Tecno N7.

Hello Nwosu,
Have have bought the N7, when i downloaded the files, my antivirus detected a trojan but none the less, i switch of my antivirus and proceed but after the “superoneclick” reaches #7, it stop responding. I tried and tried but still can’t pass that step.
There is no #7 on the list, what exactly did you do?
hello. my rooting process stalled at #5 while using the SuperOneClick. I’ve followed the exact procedure you’ve wrote on the aricle. What might be the issue?
Have you tried restarting and repeating the process again?
