[Q] How to install newer os on this tablet - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone
I have the following tablet made by Mach Speed Technologies:
Trio Stealth G2 7" display
1GB RAM
CPU: Dual Cortex-A9 Dual 1.5GHz Multi-Core (its a dual core with a total of 1.5GHz)
its not rooted yet, I don't know how. If it needs to be rooted for this can someone quick explain that?
It came with Android 4.0 and has never updated through the settings, and the factories website does not even mention this tablet. The guy at Radioshack said I could install the update myself so here I am trying to figure out how.
If possible my original plan was to just instal the newest Android release. But today I just found out about ROM's.
So how do I install the newest Android release or if that's not possible a very secure custom ROM?
On one website it just said to put the rom image on a sd card (or in my case a microsd card) and put it in the tablet, then the tablet would use it as an update after asking you with a pop up. Is that true?
I have a bit of experience with Linux and coding but none with Android

with that update through sd card is true but most of times you need to have specific app or recovery as it may be treated as a rom and in that case you need to be rooted and have recovery. if you have experience u good with android as it is based on unix core

Well, I guess the first step is to be rooted then? How do I go about doing that?
I have the "Root with Restore by Bin4ry" downloaded on my computer and the usb driver installed from the google sdk manager.
But my computer does not see my tablet at all.

I have the same tab I have got adb to somewhat pick it up an it has aml flashtool and safe mode this shows u how to get into all those all but for safe mode copy this an past after youtube.com

HP 7 plus (not Slate)

I just bought the HP 7 plus 1302 (not Slate) at Best Buy for $99. I can't find any information on it, I thought there would have been custom recoverys, roms, etc. Did I make a bad choice? Can I even root this thing? Is there any cool roms for this?
Same here, Officeworks Australia have them for AU$99, and from having a muck around with the one my next door neighbour bought for his daughter a couple of months ago I'm keen to get one. Problem is, I'm not rushing to it if there's no way of rooting it, or any custom ROM support, etc...

Got the HP 7 Plus 1301 (not slate) in Australia.
Cannot find any rooting info, custom ROM's etc.
I'm guessing there are not that many of them out there so no one actually spent time "XDA-ing" them...
If anyone has any rooting info can you please share...

It was because of these very facts - no way I could find of getting root access, no custom ROMs, not a great deal of support - that led me to buy an ASUS Memo Pad for my daughter just a few weeks ago. Bit more expensive, but worth that extra for better performance, (after a little wait) root access and a fair bit more support from dev's here at our esteemed forum...

Yup, I don't think I would have bought this model if I was in the market for buying a 7" tablet.
This HP 1301 was given to me... I did not pay for it...
However, there is no way I would buy an Asus tablet after they stuffed us up with the Transformer TF101 and the pathetic way they handled the saga. I would probably go for a Galaxy Tab or a Nexus.
Pitty about community support for the HP 7 Plus 1301 (or lack of it), because it could have been an even better tab with a custom ROM.
Rooted but not opérational
Hi everyone,

I have tried this and rooted too, in january-2015, but at every restart erased all personal data (maybe the new version of KingoRoot resolved this?).

KitKat is no good.... trouble with SD cards permissions... I would like to come back to Jelly Bean. I can't find a way to Bypass the SD Card Restrictions in Android 4.4 .... tried a lot.
"My file manager app can no longer create folders or change folder names or file names/extensions on my SD card after the Kitkat update. Also, my DiskUsage app can no longer create a usage chart for the SD card. It appears that access to the SD card has been severely hobbled for many apps. "
You can search on google more info about kitkat sd card restrictions

As there is no way to going back to JB, I advise you trust me and wait for a fix in a few weeks. I'm working on gaining root access on 4.4 and then, I will provide a fix for this SD card ordeal.
And just to be fair, KitKat has increased performance and battery life of our HP tablet (Tested myself) so it is a really great update. Worth the wait.

plz help !
I have the same hp 7 plus and I rooted it with kingo root. got all permission and stuff . but whenever tablet turns off internal data resets ...
I really wanna fix this by installing the new KitKat update but I can't do it.
-This tablet doesn't read sdcard at recovery mod (which was announced as a bug by a hp employee)
-it also wipes internal storage after every bootload (tried soft reboot and it didn't erase anything)
-adb sideload won't detect the tablet ...
so how can I install the update.zip or AT LEAST fix this reset issue !!!
any help is much appreciated <3
Edit : I FINALLLY FIXED MY HP 7 PLUS !!!
try to download kitkat image from the hp support
then use adb sideload to flash the update.zip (if your devices isn't detected , try installing drivers and disable firewall )
and voila !

The reset issue is there because the bootloader wasn't unlocked. You have to unlock the bootloader and then use KingoRoot and no resets will occur.

I'll try this since I have the stock rom and I'll just have to adb push if it bootloops.
Did it until step 4. It didn't install the binary libraries, so I rebooted it and now I'm stuck at a bricked tab. I can't access the recovery mode to push the firmware. Help please.

[Q] CWM Recovery for Allwinner A33?

I was just wondering if there was any available (or TWRP) or a substitute for a generic tablet
Maybe it's too early but I'm interested too, even for a cyanogenmod rom

My issue are 2 things the constant ads that pop up (minor issue) and second is the space, very low space.... I have an 32gb sd card and I'd like to use that as the primary storage, but since the tablet is kit Kat switching the storage around isn't done the same as its done in jelly bean and from what I read it can only be done by flashing in CMW recovery because ads to sd doesn't always work
I have exactly the same your problems! I can't understand why they partition the main memory when they could use the whole space to install apps... And I want to remove that damn ads popups too!
My model is recognized as softwinner "V11", I'd like to know if CM designed for other similiar tablets works...

Hi guys. I've got an a33 quad core tablet badged ciprotec but I know it's allwinner based (obviously). Have you guys managed to get yours rooted? Mine runs 4.4.2 kvt49l. It's OK for messing around on but I need to practice my developing skills!! Cheers!
That tab is should already rooted I have one too but I found the preinstalled root doesn't work properly. Cant remember quite how i got it working but i think i used supersu to delete and reinstall the root script or I might have had to hook it up to the pc with a bit of software for flashing allwinners that I found. When you do have it rooted get gl2sd if your running kitkat so you can use the external sd for some of the bigger app installs rather than the rather small internal sd, but before that make sure the write permissions are enabled to sd there are a few Apps on the market that can do this. Has anybody heard anything on cwm or twrp yet?
Managed to get it done using vroot! Yay!! It's mine at last!
Hi all,
I've rooted my device and accidentally removed the systemui.apk so now my status bar etc is missing.
So far I've been trying to restore it from several Roms and other user posts, however, it looks like as if the model etc has to match my environment. So here I go, could someone post their systemui.apk???
Cheers!

Its a root app.. It'll come up as malware.... Use kingoroot.. Works fine.
I have this tablet as well, I have it rooted but still have not found a way to get around the ads that popup. Has anyone been able to mod this or delete the script that is causing the ads.
"edit"
found a link for AllWinner Demo Lock (trojan) Removal Tool cannot post the link because I have not posted 10 posts, but if you google it is easy enough to find.

Windows ADB driver??
I have a new A33 tablet, which I cannot get it rooted, because I cannot find a working Windows ADB driver for it - either for Windows 8.1 x64 or Windows 7 x64.
The MTP driver works (I can transfer files), but I cannot find the "Android" driver for the ADB connection.
I tried the Rockchip "RK driver assistant" - no luck.
If you have a working ADB connection to an Allwinner A33 tablet, could you perhaps share the Windows ADB drivers here?
TIA

A33 Twrp
I made a TWRP for A33, A23,A20 and A31s models over on TechKnow . Some of them are posted but I think I have yet
to post all of them on the Public Downloads... I will make an effort to get them all posted soon. Offhand I do not
recall the specs I used though I am thinking all used gslx Touchscreens.. I will post here again the specs of the Tabs
they are for and a link to where they are posted once I am sure they are up ... The delay in posting them has
been the installer, I was working with another person since I have no A33 on making an installer that will
work on all of the tab models from ADB, also I am working pretty heavily on A31s Dev at present and have
allowed my other projects to fall behind even though some are essentially finished as in this case.

Upgrade from KitKat 4.4 to Marshmallow 6 - Intel tablet

Hi. I am having a hard time trying to understand how to upgrade my tablet from kitkat 4.4 to at least marshmallow 6.
This are the facts:
Tablet: Philco TP7A1I - Assembled in Argentina by Newsan
Android: 4.4.4
CPU: Intel Atom Z3735G - 1.33Ghz - X86_64
GPU: Intel HD Graphics for BayTrail
RAM: 1GB
Flash Size: 8GB
The problem that I have is that all the info that I found related to upgrades is pointing to OTA upgrades using adb or, if we talk about Intel devices, upgrades via UEFI boot.
Well, I have neither of those posibilites. Or I least I dont know how to get in in UEFI boot.
If a navigate to Settings -> Backups & reset -> System Upgrade and then reboot the system into Recovery Mode, I finally get the Android menu with "reboot system now" "apply update from sdcard" and so on.
I think I need to install Android-x86, but I can't found the correct way to do it.
Iam trying to use adb to get some info from tablet, but no luck until now.
Any tip or advice is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
Daniel.
@Danielalk
Updating/upgrading Android OS requires the Android device to be booted into Recovery Mode: thats a minimal 2nd Android OS ( with restricted ADB version ) from what you can install a so-called update.zip, means overwrite the existing Android OS in parts or at whole - this is possible because the existing ( full ) Android OS actually is not running.
So you have to find an update.zip that contains the x86_64 Android OS version of your choice. If found then you put the ZIP on device's external SD-card and finally apply it by means of adb apply update from sd card command.
In case you can't find a ready-to-go update.zip then you can try to create it by yourself.
BTW: Don't think it makes sense to invest time in this because Android M requires a device with 2+GB RAM to sucessfully work.
Thanks jwoegerbauer
@jwoegerbauer
Thanks for your time jwoegerbauer.
Well, I guess I need a new device and thats all.
Anyway the technical puzzle is interesting, so I will try to found a update.zip that matches my device and try to upgrade to Lollipop at least.
Just to learn about Android.
Thanks Again.

These 2 x86-based Android phones also exist: ASUS Zenfone & LENOVO K80

Root fake chinese phone

Hi,
My friend bought a cheap fake chinese phone named S21+ Ultra 512Gb +16Gb with a MT6989 chip.
This device is running Android 6.
Is it possible to root this device and install a custom ROM, and if so, how?
Regards
Robert
If phone's bootloader is unlockable, and if you find a Custom Recovery suitable to this phone, and if you find a Custom ROM suitable to this phone, then it's possible.

I have this phone now as a tester. Cannot find a recovery or rom. Have your friend had any luck?
I also have an MT6989 phone and cannot find a recovery or Rom to try. Anyone else had any luck yet?
I too Have One of these And after Doing some backups I discovered that although the phone In setting says CPU 6989 It in fact is a MT6580 I also attaching scatter
Yeah I found that the specs promised were all very wrong. Phone advertised 5G but was only 3G, advertised 1TB storage but was only 16gb storage, avertised 16gb ram but was only 2gb, advertised screen 7.1 and ended up being 6.8, advertised the MT6989 CPU but was actually the MT6580, advertised Android 10 but was actually android 8. They had some spoofing software installed by default that allowed them to change whatever spec they wanted to in the settings to say whatever they wanted. I found it eventually. I chose to send it back to them and get a refund for all those reasons (and have them pay return postage). Basically a criminal seller rip off merchant. Not worth the time and effort to use when the specs we so low anyways.
well I have successfully rooted it with magisk. you can use emmcboot with magisk and boot to recovery sideload the magic_patched then afterwards select the graphics test in recovery window and should see system updating and after that magisk should be there with full root access! enjoy hope this help out!

Edit: can you give me an link for the program you used on that image? please
well you can either just use the file if not I used a cracked miracle to get the boot emc
