EDIT: Well I managed to get clockworkmod installed and everything; still having some issues with aspects of it, but in general I'm good. I'll probably make a dedicated thread to the device; if anyone wants to suggest a proper forum section, be my guest.
Ok, so I need some assistance on installing CWM or another recovery mode on my YourPad P4. I've already rooted and installed ROM Manager, but it could not find a compatible CWM version.
Now, first off I have also been unable to get an exact or better identification of this tablet other than it being sold as a "YourPad P4" and that it's model is MID; so I might also need help getting more details to better assist the finding of a compatible or working recovery.
Here is some information about it...
* Site purchased from/detail page:
http://www.yourstoreonline.net/yourpad_p4_new_android_40/id2040716/product.html
Don't worry, I got it for ~$100 (with the 1GB RAM upgrade), not the displayed price on the site!
* About tablet page info:
Model number: MID
Android version: 4.0.3
Kernel version: 3.0.8

Also, before I start messing with it I was going to make a nandroid backup to share for others...does nandroid backup firmware as well? I've never needed to restore a backup so I have no idea what goes into it and can't find a quick answer. I'd like to make a backup of a clean as possible system to share for anyone wanting it. Although I'm surprised that its not been mentioned on xda, I'd expect this tablet to have at least been asked about once considering it was mentioned on woot.
Thanks to anyone for any help, and I apologize if this should be in a different section. If so, could a mod please move it before any fuss is made.
And now, I'm off to bed (so I won't be responding/checking this for a few hours).
Not to sure about the rules for thread bumping, but I just wanna make sure this gets seen soon (as I'll be very busy and it will be hard to work on it next week and the the days that follow).
Also I thought it was worth mentioning now that only really mentions of this tablet I can find are in posts by me, ahahahahaha
EDIT: Oh, and I havn't verified I even have a recovery partition yet as I can't cat /proc/mtd
it's been about a week now and no response; I even posted it over here http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...cs-need-help-recovery-install-yourpad-p4.html
so bumping, if anyone at the very least knows some mystical other worldly site that somehow manages the chance of providing me an answer over the ever amazing xda; please post
tabletrepublic.com/forum/iview-760tpc-ployer-momo9/iview-760tpc-k-ployer-momo9-firmware-rom-releases-1610.html

Thanks alot for this, I'll definitely read it over a few times before attempting. Hopefully this will work out. Thread is still open for any other input, so anyone else coming here that can provide any additional help go ahead and post.
Well I still have been unable to get a recovery option going. I tried the link mentioned by AJ88 and it didn't work for me. Essentially the link boiled down to 2 simple adb commands and a custom recovery.img. First step was to "adb push recovery.img /data/", but I ran into a permission denied issue and could not figure out a way around it (didn't want to mess with chmod, but I did run the "fix permissions" script in the clockworkmod rom manager. So instead I just pushed the recovery.img to my sdcard. Next step was "adb shell "cat /data/recovery.img > /dev/block/nandg; sync""; so instead I went "adb shell" then su to make sure I didn't get any more issues, then just "cat /sdcard/recovery.img > /dev/block/nandg; sync". Rebooted and tried all combinations of key pressings to access recovery with no luck (even tried via adb). So any ideas on my next course of action?
youtPad P4 issues
Dear EarthBoundX5,
Please do not feel alone in what I might be perceiving as "buyer's remorse" as I also own this device and have begun to have issues with it functionality. Initially I was attracted to this device for what seemed a myriad of available functions and abilities, however I'm really starting to believe the old saying, "you get what you pay for".
My main issue at this point is when using the free Kindle app, after selecting my book, the screen goes completely blank and does NOT come back with the reading material I've selected. If I touch the back button, I get a brief flash of the screen showing the page that I'm on in the book, but after that nothing. I've tried rebooting the machine, currently trying a fresh install of the Kindle app, we'll see how that goes TODAY.
I also have another off-brand tablet, iBridge, which was purchased during the frustration period of waiting for YourStore . com to get their act together and send me the YourPad. Funniest part about it though is that the iBridge comes with a booklet thats 4x the size of the poorly written "booklet" that the YourPad people put out.
I'm sorry that I don't have a solution for your problem as I'm a complete newb with the tablet world, but wanted to at least touch base with you to let you know "you are not alone. I am here with you...." LOL
Found you with a google search for online help regarding YourPad, and it brought me to you, and this seems like the most helpful place I might have found in reference to oddball tablet issues. Take care, have a good day. and I'll check back in to notify regarding Kindle reinstall.
Well I've been waiting for a reply to either of my threads with no luck, so today I figured I'd just try again the method of manually setting up a recovery, and this time I just decided to try and hold every button I could while powering and and BAM RECOVERY MODE *****ES!!!!!! So guess either I must've just screwed up last time or something. Anyways, I'll edit the OP to reflect all this later...maybe start a dedicated thread with any quirks I figure out down the line using this tablet; and of course post my nandroid backup. When I setup my 2nd YourPad, I'll make sure to make backups of any files I may have had to change (ie, nandg, etc). The question is, what section would such a thread belong?

I don't feel any buyer's remorse...yet at least, haha. If I end up having the same issues as you, maybe I'll change my mind; but I really don't see much wrong yet with this tablet. I mean, obviously its cheap and all, but for the poor man its fantastic. But ya, I HATE the YourStore, they took FOREVER to ship out the tablets. Anyways, for people like you, it really makes me thing I should take point on this tablet and start a dedicated thread.
Now before anyone responds by telling me to search the forums I have spent HOURS on XDA going through innumerable forums clicking on dead or misleading links and have not found anything that will help.
My old x10 crapped out on me and I need to reflash it so that SEUS will recognize it. I know what I am doing and have done this before. I have the latest (and multiple copies of older) version of flashtool. This all started with 2.1 randomly shutting down irrespective of what the battery level is. I have had this happen in the past and EVERY time a reflash resolved it.
ALL I need is either the official Rogers 1.6 or 2.1 stock rom. There seem to be HUNDREDS of dead links here and this has become a uber frustrating situation. I have flashed X10a_3.0.1.G.0.75_AMERICA-US GENERIC 1233-8200 which 100% solved the reboot issue but now my sd card is no longer recognized. And please don't tell me to try other cards as I have used 6 different capacity and speed cards and none are seen in the phone but ALL work on my pc and on my xperia T. I am using the original 16GB card that the phone came with.
For some reason I can get roms for every other carrier except Rogers so I am suspecting Rogers had them pulled, but SURELY someone here has what I need and can help.
Once I can get it back to stock I can use SEUS or PC companion to update and I will take care of the rooting later, if at all.
So here it is, I am asking VERY nicely...BEGGING in fact...can ANYONE help me get a stock ROGERS rom for my x10?
Following http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmX-IYNYqL8&hd=1 was of zero help as the page shown in the vid has been edited and now does not have any of the links for the firmwares, only the flashtool.
I honestly thank you for any help you can offer here. My kids want\need their phone back and there is no way I can afford to replace it right now...and frankly I shouldn't have to replace it if all I need is the rom. I do apologize if I am coming off like a jerk. That is not my intent. I am just SUPER frustrated and running out of time and searches on XDA have become less than friendly over the past few years...too much content to dig through and too many old/dead links.
I was wondering if I can put cyanogenmod onto my phone with twrp installed on it, if I can what one can I put on it as I have seen loads of different ones on here, I am new to the android world and rooted my phone a few weeks ago, ive only istalled a few things and was wondering if anyone can help me progress to the next level, ive hunted this place high and low and cant find the answers I am looking for but I know there out there somewhere, anyway with t.w.r.p. installed can I install cyanogenmod along side it or will that just be pointless, a silly question maybe but I honestly don't know, also would like to know about clockwork mod, my phone is a acer liquid v370, if anyone knows if there is a guide out there can you point me in the right direction thanks, if someone can either tell me were to find the answers or tell me it would be much appreciated, I did try to put clockwork mod onto my phone but the one I was trying to put on said I couldn't install it to my phone and told me to install twrp, but ive seen a few places saying you can have them both on the phone, but something is telling me that all three do exactly the same thing and it would be pointless having 2 of them together, but as I said I am new to android and probably totally wrong, all I need to know is whats the best for my device or just the best one and easiest to use, and wod they clash if they were 2 on my device at the same time or even pointless, sorry if ive been repeating myself here but I am trying to explain the best way what I am trying to accomplish, if anyone can help or show me were to get the help I need I will be greatful thanks again for your time.
Hi Guys, first of all thank you in advance for any answer you could give! it will be much appreciated!
Now, before anything I know there should be hundreds of posts about this issue but I was unable to find one that could apply to my scenario. But if you know any post that could be what I'm searching please just point me in the right direction :good:
Now, here is the problem:
We bought this cheap chinese tablet with andrioid 4.2.2 for my mother and it seemed to work pretty slow and some apps where not working correctly, there where a lot of adds even when she was not on an application, they just popped out on the main menu screen, and, when trying to register Instagram it displayed a message stating that there where too many users registered in the device. I tried to root the tablet because found that it could be because some temp files but it showed that it was already rooted... So my guess is that whoever installed the OS, did it with a "hacked" version of it.
Up to this point I have tried to do a hard reset but the issue is still going because it is still the hacked version of the OS, and I havent been able to find a way to completely wipe out the OS and install a fresh new version of Jelly bean 4.2.2
Can it be done with the device conected to a PC? or can it be done with a flashed memory card?
I know finding the firmware for a chinese tablet will be a major pain in the ass but, is there a version that could work for different models? (this is a Mobix MBX7 Plus, found the website mobix.com.ve but there is just no helpful info whatsoever)
Anyway, I hope you guys can help. Sorry for the somewhat long post
Again, thank you!!
Update!!!
I found info that could lead to the correct firmware, the CPU is an Allwinner Cortex A20, but Im still not sure if this format process is just like a PC, where you need drivers or everything is on the OS

Hello! I recently got a h892l myself. Ive never rooted before and I have been trying to learn as much as I can before rooting. On another forum (howard forums) someone said they rooted with kingo root.
Im sorry, I dont have anyknowledge to assist you, but I wanted to ask, do you know what went wrong? Anything you could offer as far as advice/experience would be very much appreciated- I cant afford another phone either.
I wish you all the best and hope you are able to sort this issue out.
