 +Actually I'm running my Gretel A7 with the following configuration:
 +
 +  * **TWRP Recovery 3.0.2** - We use version 3.0.2 because we had problems with newer 3.2.1, [[#installing_the_xenonhd_custom_rom|see below]]. NOTICE: When you flash the recovery image, do not reboot normally, otherwise the partition will be overwritten. From poweroff, reboot instead into //Select Boot Mode Menu// and choose Recovery.
 +  * **Stock ROM 20170908** - We found on the net the archive Y8303.YX.A7.Gretel.B1B8.6.0.V01.07.20170908.rar. Beware that this stock ROM contains a trojanized launcher! [[#infected_stock_rom_20170908|See below]]. It features Android 6.0, with security patch level August 5, 2015.
 +  * **SuperSU v2.82** build number 20170528234214 - Needed to gain root privileges and replace the launcher.
 +  * **Rootless Pixel Launcher 3.9.1** - Downloaded from F-Droid repository, replaces the trojanized default launcher.
