Hi all,
I have unlocked my bootloader on my Tablet Z SP311 16GB WiFi only model and attempted to install the nightly of pollux_windy from the CM team but got stuck in a bootloop on the CM logo screen.
I've now gone back to stock using an ftf file.
Don't suppose anyone knows when we will get a working 4.2.2 custom Rom for the SP311?
Or if someone could assist me with getting the pollux_windy CM Rom working that would be great.
Thanks for any help you can provide

Did you wipe /data before booting it up?

I have it running on my SGP311. I had the boot loop too after installing, a wipe fixed it for me.
The wipe fixed it for me, too.
The only thing not working is the gps. Do you have trouble with your gps aswell?
HDMI out over MHL is also not working with CM, right?

Running now with SGP311 with no troubles. Multiuser three accounts is fantastic. One for my wife and other for my children.
I want to give special THANKS to Joen, who was the one give me trusting to go ahead after reading his posts.
Now working to run modem 3G....with ppp widget. I need to re-build the kernel-windy to add the suitable modules on /lib.
In my opinion Sony xperia SGP 311 Root + Cyanogenmod 10.1 is PERFECT DEVICE.

Regarding the GPS, I will check asap and feed you back.
For me the most important was implement the launcher NOVA LAUNCHER, You can mod all the tablet by this launcher, including some touch gestures.
Regarding the original app from SONY, really I dont miss them.

I think GPS is still broken. Installed latest nightly and latest FXP build.

Yes, GPS still broken. It tried many thinks and Kali was working to find the fix, but no succeed by the moment.
There is two ways to solve the problem you can try:
- GPS needs to be activated running lock position at least one time on stock ROM. 3 Location modules needs to be enabled an be sure your GPS is working on google maps, navigation..... After this you can change already to custom ROM and GPS will lock whithout problems.
- The other way is to use the GPS of your android mobile. If you have SGP311, you will have always your android mobile very near. Install the app bluetooth GPS as client (tablet) and server (mobile) and all work fantastic. (This is the option Im running now).
Android Phone:
Step 1) Open Market and/or Install: GPS 2 Bluetooth
Step 2) If you do don't see the widget then reboot your phone.
Step 3) Turn on GPS
Step 4) Turn on your widget (press it)
Step 5) Turn on Bluetooth and pair with your SGP311.
Tablet SGP311:
Step 1) Open Settings
Step 2) Open Developer Options
Step 3) Enable "Allow Mock Locations" & Enable "USB Debugging"
Step 4) Open Market and/or Instal: Bluetooth GPS
Step 5) Turn on Bluetooth and pair with your android phone
Step 6) Open Bluetooth GPS
Step 7) Activate/Enable "Enable Mock GPS Provider"
Step 8) Press Connect.
ENJOY, finally you are not using the GPS all times. (GPS in tablet also activated...)
Comment your results from option you choose from above, thanks.

hello,
i bought the new lenovo ideapad a2107a in germany last week.
unfortunately there is no good support by lenovo until now.
i want to buy the original case shown on lenovo us website but can´t find it on web.
where can i buy it ???
another question is, i read about a build in fm-radio at the tablet, but i can´t find the way to switch it on.
can anybody help me ?
and i don´t understand why there are 2 sim slots for 3g / gsm. is there any telephon function too ?
i hope there is somebody who can help me ?
where can i find a manual and description which shows me all functions ?
thank you and best wishes
herbert
Hi...
I am also looking for that FM Radio but I couldn't find, tried one apk from the web but it doesn't work properly.
one more thing this tablet is able to make phone calls (check youtube) but mine has no phone icon, when I called Lenovo people, they've told that in my country (UAE) Lenovo doesn't have the license for that yet and they will get it once they launch their mobile phones, I tried a third party app it gave some license error.
for online user guide check: download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles_pub/ideatab_a2107a_ug/data/EN/index. H T M L
I have this phablet (purchased direct from China).
I have successfully read-back the ROM and am in the process of packaging it for backup purposes using the MTK flash tool.
Additionally I was able to flash a CWR based recovery using MTKdroidtools and successfully flashed gapps. Oddly enough Maps would not install and I had to sideload a recent copy of it. MTKdroidtools root facility also worked without issue.

that's awesome news. I recently bought it myself and have been looking around for a root toolkit.
However, root isn't going to be much helpful without some roms, which i doubt will be available anytime soon.
Lenovo also isn't supporting this tablet so i doubt we'll be able to get past the 4.0 version

could you attach mtkdroidtools or the link to it?
MTK Droid Tools (can't remember where I found it)
http://www.shellware.com/projects/mtkdroidtools/MTKdroidTools_v228.zip
Here's the CWR variant I found that works (again, can't recall where I found it). Patch it in with MTKDroidTools and you can then safely apply unsigned updates such as gapps. Be sure to back up your stock ROM first. That way when you're done you can reapply Lenovo's recovery using the same procedure you followed for the CWR version.
http://www.shellware.com/projects/mtkdroidtools/recovery.rar
One oddity I've found is that BT and wifi crash if they're both on and active. AVRCP is also a little flakey but I can usually get it to work using the as built music.apk.

Most FM radios are only accessible if you have your headphones plugged in, they use the wire as an antenna. Init a suggestion. Try opening the stock Music app, in the menu.

I bought this tab a couple years ago for my wife to use as a reader. Lately she has been reading an ACTUAL BOOK and leaving the tablet at home. This week, while my kids were on winter break and monopolizing my laptop and other devices, I was using the tablet to watch netflix and stream movies from my WLAN. My youngest pointed out, mid Nightmare on Elm Street, that she could still hear the movie even though I had my headphones plugged in. It was then that I realized that the audio was continuing to play through the external speakers while also playing through the headphones. The rom is stock. I did install the MX player and codec to stream the mp4's, but I have not otherwise monkeyed around with the system.
I used a couple of different sets of wired headphones and tried netflix and youtube, and also manually setting the tablet to silent mode, but none of these things fixed the problem. It would seem to me as if there is a driver missing. I'd like to avoid a factory reset if at all possible, unless it would be a guaranteed fix.
This seems like the type of problem which someone with a moderate understanding of the droid os might be able to solve using just their own knowledge base. I'd appreciate any insights.

Hello,
I am new here and have found some answers but no solution for this problem, so I try again by a new thread (sorry if I missed an answer)
I want to charge my tab through the usb connection to my pc or in my car and not only through the AC-adapter.
In the development discussion is this theme going on (page 101):

I don't kmow why this error, I am root, but anyway, I changed this value directly using root explorer and a text editor and it works for me, now I have enabled usb and non-samsung-charger charging.
Thanks a lot!

You are using Terminal Emulator ? If yes then no need to write adb shell, just su first then echo 1 > /sys/class/power_supply/battery/force_usb_charging
I followed this instruction by Using the Terminal Emulator. Changing to "1" works fine until I restart my tab, than its back to "0" and I do have to change it again.
How can I keep the wanted setting to "1" ?
Thanks for help in advance

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 P7500 3G + Wifi
Latest nightly CM10.1 JB 4.2.2
TWRP 2.4.1.0
CM10 and 10.1 Jellybean come with USB charging already enabled. Wonder why yours doesn't work. Anyway you may need to change your kernel first before activating the feature. I heard A1 kernel works great, I use Pershoot kernels in both JB 4.1.2 and 4.2.1 which I interchange depending on what I need to do. Both have the feature. I also use stock ICS but I never bothered with the feature there.
Sent from my GT-P7500 using xda app-developers app
John,
Thanks for your help.
Changed the kernel to the A1 1.8.4. P4 G3 and its working again.
I had the Kernel 3.1.10 from CM from somewhere in Januari on it and somewhere it went wrong with that one.
The A1 is doing what I needed.
Thanks
Peter
problem not solved
Today I updatet to the nightly 28-02 and noticed that charging over usb connection is not working. The kernel is back to [email protected]#4 Wed jan 16 05:31:00EST 2013 and guess what:
Charging through a usb connection to PC is disabled.
So I have to change the Kernel back to the A1 again.
kernel changed
Changed the Kernel to A1 version: 3.1.10_A1_V1.8.4. [email protected] #283 Sun Dec 23 16.02.03 EST 2012.
USB charging is working!
So I presume that in the Pershoots Nightly the Kernel is disabling usb charging. Or is there another way to activate the usb-charging?
Peter
Did a full wipe and installed the cm10.1 - 20130301 Nightly. Same issue. Had to install the A1 kernel again.
Updated to todays version 05/03/2013. Noticed that the Kernel has been updated to: [email protected]#4 SunMar 3 19:35:46 EST 2013.
No charging over usb connection.
Changed to A1 and charging is working.

you have to activate it.
the instructions are right above you. must be root.
i had it enabled automatically (for a short time), but this cauised issues with certain tabs in the suite (the touchscreen would go bonkers) when plugged in and booting, so i removed it. its also safer not to have it on by default, because not all pcs can supply a consistent voltage output. if the power going to the battery is waivering, it could potentially cause issue.
samsung did not have this enabled at all (probably for that very reason).
Thanks
Pershoot,
Thank you for your reply. The solution of activating as I copied above is only working until the next reboot.
I now understand why you did not activate this, and I will take good notice of your advice. Nevertheless it is rather strange that I do not experience any problem using the A1 kernel.
Greatings,
Peter

dont forget, thousands of people and their tabs have to be attenuated for with any changes done. it may work for you and your tab, but that doesn't mean it will work out for anyone else and their tabs.
there's a lot of variance there.
Suggestion
Maybe someone is able to make a third option in usb-connection-tab, so you can switch usb charging on and of, the same as MTP and PTP.
Settings>Storage and hit the menu button then 3 USB Options: MTP, PTP and Charging over USB
Personally,I own nexus 5,nexus 7 and nexus 10. All of them are purchased from taobao.
I've been working in Shanghai for several years. Everyone know the google related service is blocked here.
It is no big deal and I learned how to use VPN. So it is just ok for my nexus 5,7 and 10.
But something went wrong this time and I dont know if it is a problem caused by android 5.x
When I boot up my nexus 9, the system ask me to connect to wifi first and download a new firmeware around 298.4MB.
So I set up the VPN in my wireless router and let nexus 9 connect with it. It almost took me more than 10hrs to finish the
downloading. And thanx god,I'm able to use my nexus 9 now.
But one of my friend is not so lucky. He is also in China and he followed my step to upgrade then he failed.
So I grab his nexus 9 home yesterday and try again. This time it only download 15MB and stopped.
I'm pretty sure the VPN connection is smooth to get on facebook and twitter.
So I'm wondering, is there any way to skip the first upgrade and boot normally?
Then I can setup VPN in the setting or install other VPN apks.
Any opinion is welcome!!
Try wugfresh's Nexus toolkit.
I'm not an expert, but the only thing I can think of is:
You should be able to use fastboot commands in the bootloader, and manually flash your updates.
You'll need to unlock the bootloader first, so I don't know how viable this option is to you, since it requires a tick box in the OS.
Really ****ty spot you're in. You cant get into the os because you can't update, you can't unlock boot loader because you can't get into the os. I was in the same situation yesterday with a new 32 gig. I didn't want to waste time downloading 830 mb at first boot, when I'm just gonna fastboot new images. I didn't try very hard but I couldn't get into the OS. I tried to skip WiFi, wouldn't let me. You can get around the update by not having WiFi connected, but in build.prop you have-
ro.setupwizard.network_required=true
ro.setupwizard.require_network=wifi
No easy way to get around this without root/unlocked bootloader.
I have the exact same problem.... bought off taobao, stuck at update screen on first boot... can't even get into the system. I'm not even sure I can setup vpn on my router because I didn't purchase that service on astrill...
any help? Why won't lollipop let you skip wifi or updates like every other android version ><!!!
yes exactly skip

I have encountered the same problem.
I let my Nexus 9 connect to google server with Shadowsocks shared by my PC wthin the same wlan.
Then it went to the "downloading update" page, but had no sign to advance.
Any way to fix it?
I have solved this problem.
Nexus 9 is not well compatible with Shadowsocks Sock5 proxy.
So a program called DeleGate is needed to transfer Sock5 prxoy to a HTTP proxy:

Aslong as your device is 2/16GB this could possibly work.

I had no PC around (at least not in the same ip-range
So, i installed the Flashify app and used that instead...works great! So now i have TWRP 'loaded' i will give it a go in a few minutes....#fingerscrossed #yeah
Well...no USB-stick or microsdcard laying around at the moment and i also use 1 usb port for power and the other for remote control. So I ended up downloading the ROM directly to my T95Zplus.....no errore during flashing, wiped cache/dalvik and rebooting right now and so far so good...!

Quite odd, if you flashed the rom in recovery, it should have worked :/
I did find a bug though, endless reboot if you try connecting wifi
So it's canned now

I didn't get a boot loop; however, attempt to activate wifi resulted in wifi switch button moving to on position and after ~3 seconds returning to the off position. Is it possible this needs to be debugged on a per-wireless-chipset basis? I'm on 8830 q201_6255....
Please advise and let me know if I can help out with logs, etc.

From which firmware did you flash?
I don't know if partitions are different sizes and maybe that did trigger the bootloop? I come from goo.gl/hWrmxY (Android 7.1.1 with root, 1013) and that did not work so far...

Im gonna update it tonight, ill need someone to PM me, im gonna need someone to test as i dont have my TV box with me and im away on buisness, i think i have found the wifi bug, but as you can tell with the ROM ram usage is ALOT less, framework is much smoother and alot of apps have been updated from the manufacturer
Ill also be basing it on the newest build 1075(Or if anyone has a newer build PM me)
This rom will be pretty stock with more features implemented and possibly some apps i might make ffor the device

Hi and thanks a lot for works.
i flashed my 3gb/32gb variant with a 2gb/16gb rom and it's done. but if i setup my wifi in a few seconds the startup animation appears on the screen and hang during animation.
When i start the set top box with lan cable inside, it's hang at the end of start animation and stay on T95z plus logo with the space behind but without any network it's start and the launcher appear...
can you put in the HDMI section in setting menu ? to have the CEC support?

yes thats a bug, this is mean for 2/16GB variants, this is exactly like stock 7.1.2, if you have 3/32GB variant flash stock 7.1.2(build 1075)

OK. Thanks. I'm waiting for an solution about the connection trouble.
Maybe you can consider to bake a little reboot app (i use Simple Reboot) into the ROM cause it makes it much easier to test and restore/backup especially when there is no internet with this ROM at the moment.
For now I have some apk's ready on a sdcard so I will get there but would make things a little easier...

adb connect not working
Hi,
Thank you very much for all your effort Ricky. I have T95Z Plus 2/16 variatnt. I am unable to connect to my TV box using adb. I have USB debugging enabled on my TV box. The TV box and my Mac from where I am trying to run adb commands are on the same wifi network. I have tried connecting my TV box to my Mac using USB cable but still adb connection fails with error "Host is down" and sometimes "Operation timed out".
I cannot proceed further without this step. Any help is much appreciated.
Apart from adb, can I copy the files into SD card or USB drive and install it? If so, what will be the steps?
Thanks again!
Hi,
I updated this tablet using Lenovo Smart Upgrade Assistant - update to TB_8504F_USR_S001019_1909091114_Q12000_ROW seems fine except my Wifi/WLAN is totally dead.
If I turn it on, it looks turns back to off quickly, but never actually turns on, and sometimes tablet hangs for a while sometimes when I try to turn wifi on.
I saw a previous post where someone also had this problem and solved it by flashing a modded ROM then flashing the stock ROM and Wifi worked again (with a strange MAC address after that procedure)
But I am stuck because the option to enable OEM Unlocking in Developer Options is greyed out - underneath it says to Connect to the internet or contact your carrier.
I have tried unlocking via ADB but this does not work either.
If I go into settings, WLAN Preferences, it says my MAC Address is 02:00:00:00:00:00 which seems to match other people with this problem.
I tried installing a terminal emulator, "ip link show" returns request send failed: Permission denied, "ip link" says I have:
1: lo:
2: duumy0:
3: [email protected]:
I don't have wlan0 or wlan1, and lo/dummy0/[email protected] did not show the 02:00:00:00::00:00 address.
Please does anyone have any ideas for me?
If I cannot get wifi working, is there any way I can connect to internet using USB to my PC?
I eventually found a version of QFIL that works (part of the QPST package) https://droidfilehost.com/download/download-qpst_2-7-480/
I found a ROM https://drive.google.com/file/d/1C1Fd5m7BMLqrhURAj0kWdqeiZGIuU95k/view (password: https://firmware247.com)
It seems to have downgraded, but now when it starts, I get the screen where I can choose location, and after a few seconds it reboots.

Please try to format data (if you don't have important data in the device) and reboot. If that doesn't help, download latest firmware (S001031). You can also try a custom ROM. Below are links to them:
LineageOS 16.0 (Android 9)
LineageOS 17.1 (Android 10)
Resurrection Remix OS (Android 10)
crDroid (Android 10)

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately I can't load any custom ROM's because my bootloader is locked.
I downloaded twrp-3.2.3-0-tb_8504x.img and renamed that to recovery.img and put in the folder with the rest of stock ROM and reflashed the downgraded stock ROM (TB-8504F_S000029_170518_ROW_QFIL) but same problem, and I still have normal recovery, not TRWP so I can't load custom ROM's.
Any chance you can please share a link to S001031 please to see if that helps?
I just tried flashing stock ROM TB_8504F_USR_S130004_1902221150_Q12000_SCP and now OEM Unlocking is not greyed out, but I'm still stuck with Android Recovery instead of TRWP. Hopefully will have fun tomorrow.
Ok, today installed TWRP 3.3.1-0 and tried various ROM's but still no luck:
crDroidAndroid-10.0-20210731-TB8504-v6.20 Boot logo loop
RROS-Q-8.6.9-20210519-TB8504-Unofficial Boots but no wifi or bluetooth
RROS-Q-8.7.1-20210726-TB8504-Unofficial Boots but no wifi or bluetooth
lineage-16.0-20200319-UNOFFICIAL-TB8504 Boot logo then rebooting to TWRP
lineage-17.1-20210408-UNOFFICIAL-TB8504 Boot logo then rebooting to TWRP
All current official firmwares for TB8504F:
TB_8504F_S110006_181015_YZ Boots but no wifi or bluetooth
TB_8504F_S140008_190215_UK Boots but no wifi or bluetooth
TB_8504F_USR_S120010_1901181601_Q12000_HFT Boots but no wifi or bluetooth

Anyone got any ideas for me?
Damn, somehow ended up with tablet bricked and now I have 900E Diagnostics connection. Trying to use a deep flash cable to get it into EDL mode but doesn't seem to work for me.
Deep flash cable didn't work.
Found a Yourtubr clip about changing the Qualcomm driver from 900E to 9008 - didn't work.
But found a video on the internet that got me out of trouble.
In the clip it says to leave the battery unplugged - that did not work for me. I needed to short the test points, plug in USB, then connect battery and it's flashing again in 9008 mode.
After flashing I had to disconnect and reconnect the battery to get it to boot normally.
Looks like I will be back where I was a day or two ago.
Interesting - when I recovered using TB_8504F_S110006_181015_YZ I now have wifi again - I'm not sure if I'm going to just leave it like this or play around further.
