[Q] How to flash tablets - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys
I have a general question that how can I flash tablets for example chinese tablets?
Is it related to their cpu or sth else?
because I've seen to many chinese android tablets that they even don't have a website on their box and when someone asks me to flash them when they don't boot i wonder myself where the hell I should bring the ****in firmware ?

I need to ask you some questions. What kind of tablet are you flashing? What are you trying to flash on to it, whether that is a rom or a root. Please reply ASAP, so I could help you out with your problem.

do you trust it?
it has a rooting file i want to download.. for my wayteq xpad 70 but do not if i should...
and i do not even know the step by step guide of rooting the tablet.. could you help ?
I don't trust sites I can't read. So it's either Greek or English (and I don't completely trust translators).
If I knew how to do it, I wouldn't have posted this question!
I've rooted my xpad-70 using z4 root. I selected permanent root and it worked fine. Think i got z4 root from the market.
The only issue i have is i can't get voice search working and i don't know how to make a first module but i can easily live without both. The tablet is excellent.
It's not root that is the problem. Indeed Z4root fixes this problem. It's that many functions of the Android OS are locked by wayteq, for reasons i keep not understanding...This is common practice for many manufacturers. I suppose it gives them more control of their product. Say in order to make aftermarket products later on, at their leisure!!!
Also the device can very easily have v2.3.5 which is much better. So why shouldn't I be able to have a fully unlocked OS and the latest at that?
Don't know if this is any good. It's for our processor.

I've found a working cifs.ko module. Its in this thread. You don't need the one it mentions later the one in the thread is fine.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1144808
Just unzip then use root explorer to create system/lib/modules/ folder then copy cifs.ko into it. You can use cifs manager to access windows shares.

The cifs module works for copying files and streams video fine but when I try to stream an mp3 it crashes out.

Today I saw that Wayteq (Europe) Posted the long awaited update. 2.3.4 gingerbread from the support page with instructions. They also state that the CPU will now run at it's 1Ghz Full Capacity. Good news.. All that remains now for me is to root it again!
Excellent news and well spotted. Have you tried it yet. Is it any good.
Sent from my xPAD-70 using Tapatalk
It's good but i Can't root it yet. Z4root and gingerbreak don work as far as I can tell...
I hope now that we have an official ROM from wayteq, someone will start working on a modded version!!!
I'd like to have full admin rights for my device!
Nice one. Is there an option in recovery to back the existing software up. I can do nandroid backups on my desire so it's a bit safer.

Tried to conx with TV via HDMI but nothing there too.
I went through many forums, potential solutions but cant find anything applicable to my problem. Tried to format a 4gb SD with sardu

How can I root my Chinese Dual Sim Android (ICS)?

Hi, all I'm new in this forum and I have some problems with my Android mobile phone. Well, my device is a "CHINESE" Android Phone (f*ck!):crying: and for this reason I can't root my device noway. Some weeks ago I connected in debbuging mode my Android to PC using an Universal Android Driver (Universal ADB), well up here. I opened the software Unlockroot (Free) and the software detected at the first my sh*t device. I just clicked in the button: ROOT in the middle of the screen. It begun to work and the line was loading very quicly. Later my phone was restarted and I had just a ROOT device. The reason for I wanted (and I still want) is because my mobile phone only has 200MB for apps and use 100MB for system and others, I tryed deleting davilk-cache, data, others systems files....but when I installed around 5 apps the memory was full and I think: WTF? WTF?...well I see some tutorials about how to win memory, splitting my SD Card, putting one partiton in EXT2 format for Apps and another for Files in FAT32 format. So, it was going so well. I installed the app SD2link and I link all the apps with SD2link...So, I thought: Good, very good, my little friend. But the problems had started. I notice, when I installed a random app from Google Play Store the phone was restared alone, without touching anything. Also it did the same when I wanted to open a installed random app.After a few days the screen rotation stopped working and when I opened an app the devices was restarted like a brick. However, I could fix with a factory wype or factory reset. I never thought that I was a cause of rooting my device...for this reason I unrooted and I went to the shop for change my device and they changed my device for another (new). Later with the new phone in my hand I rooted again with Unlockroot and I had the same problems, so I unroot the new device and I found info about root any android phone with just a click. I found SuperOneClick and that was the worst choice in my life. When the software finished I tryed to turn on my device...I couldn't because it was bricked and I was very nervous, because I had and Math exam and I had in the device my calculator (MathStep XD)...I couldn't turn on, and neither flash the device. The next day I going to special shop technical and then They fix my phone (I don't know how, but now goes well) and now my question:
I tried with all methods to be root: specials for chineses androids, universal root method, SuperOneClick (brick), Unlockroot (free and Pro ver.), Bin4ary Scripts, and others softwares, even manually ROOT with SDK and ADB, but any of these methods goes in my phone. CAN I ROOT MY DEVICE? HOW? Also I need say that I can't do any udapte from SDCard, I can't install anything from Recovery it says: Error. E: failed mount.... and then Installation Aborted. I can't installed Clockwork Mod for Root method too... so now: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

I'm not sure, man. Probably, but I going now to test it. Another thing that I said that later of the brick the phone isnt' the same than before. Also I'm not sure if it is a problem of the little pc of my father (A sh*it of PC: Acer Aspire One) or is cause of mobile phone, because my device connected and discconected alone from USB port every 5seg. or not connect nothing.
Sorry again for my bad english. I'm studying english but in Spain...You can't wait so much.
Thank, bro.

Hi All,
Good day to all. I'm new in this site and i really need help from anyone. It's just that i flashed my Cube U9GT tablet with U9GT2 firmware. I used RKBatchTool_1.5 software to flash my device.
