- Rooted 4.4 with Kingo Root (though I couldn't verify I was rooted)
- Downloaded the tools from Mlais website
- Followed official video on how to root

Total process, excluding ROM download time, took about 20 minutes. Not too shabby.

Things seem good now, but I'm running a clean ROM with no experience in Lollipop land. Will report back after a few days of using it. Confirming though, the update I installed does change the storage so it's no longer the huge problem it once was. Score!

If I flash this new update I will lost my CTR and Userdata cmiiw
Can I flash it with SP Flash Tool V5_1343 so I will keep my CTR and userdata
thanks in advance

Thanks for the follow up, @bennyceria !

I unfortunately have no idea. I ended up abandoning this phone a few months ago so I haven't done any further experimentation on it. I'm hoping maybe someone else on the forum might know the answer and can chime in. Fingers crossed!

( you can see that instruction in Mlais download site , by click that illustration button)
Flashing success and phone long reboot.
The result is yes ( as I asking you before ), I lost my CTR and userdata, and also root access. I also get message : invalid imei .
After that I connect my mlais to my pc (win 7) and try adb to detect my phone with luck.
Adb can access my phone so I type : adb reboot bootloader
Phone enter to fastboot mode so I type : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ( my CTR, I place it in same folder with adb ).
Phone showing whole process writing my CTR with OK sign.
After that I type again : fastboot reboot
After the phone full reboot. I power off it and hold vol up and power for a seconds then my mlais m52 red note boot into recovery mode. ( my CTR is back )
I touch install zip from sd card1 then choose zip( I choose BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip because I was copy it before to my sd card ) and then touch yes.
Install zip success and reboot it. Android is upgrading....
I have my root access again after update su binary
With help from Mtk engeneering app from play store I get back my imei.

I hope my experience can help other who's face same issues
