[Q] [PROBLEM] Downgrade android - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone!
So i just registered cuz im seeing alot of activity over here, cuz i could really use some help.
So recently i bought a tablet, it was a **** tablet that i just need for home, to watch movies on, it server its purpose.
The problem is that jellybean doesnt really fit to my standards, i used to have gingerbread (2.3.6) on my old phone, and im really used to it.
Besides, i find jellybean alot more laggier, but then again it might just be the device itself. I constantly keep getting errors and lags, i can cope with that but ALL my apps crash all the time, its just annoying. So i've been browsing the good ol' google on how to downgrade it for 4.2 to 2.3 and all i get is samsung ****, samsung this, samsung that, i dont wanna use samsung updates, might aswell brick my tablet eh? I dont think so.
So here i am, begging for your help PLEASE help me downgrade this cuz im really close to throwing this thing against the wall :/
I just want a clean downgrade to gingerbread nothing else, i dont care about rooting, maybe in the future, if i cant root it its ok, if i can even better.
Just please help me downgrade this thing >.>
The device is of Italian blood, its called BeeX S1, its really an unknown maker, so yeah.
Anyways, thanks in advance guys ;D
P.S. if you could put a reply on the thread, becouse i think i turned off PMs, and just for the sake of simplicity

Sorry man.. Looks like your tablet came preloaded with Android 4.2 and was actually released in the market with jellybean.. So unfortunately u won't find any gingerbread for this.. Even if some people may be able to port it, no one will becoz no 1 generally downgrades their device.. So hard luck for u.. In short u can't have gingerbread for your tablet unless u get extremely lucky..

Difference between x10 and x10mini?

In X10 market there is a lot of applications which are not in mini/mini pro.i keep asking why??? Whats the difference?or its just because of x10s big display?i really would like the answer because i hate it.x10 got skyfire, better games... Will it change when ill got 2.1 on my mini pro?
And what are the negatives of rooting ?i want some screen captures for example.
PLEASE ANSWER,THANX !

Small screen and Android 1.6 limits certain apps from working on your phone.
Upgrading to 2.1 will give you a wider selection, but you will still not have access to those that require a bigger screen.
As far as I know. There are no reasons not to root your phone. I have rooted both my own x10mini pro and my mothers x8.
Please try to avoid basic grammatical errors when you post. English is not my first language either, but I try to make my posts understandable. Reading your post was painful. Writing like that makes you look like a dumbas.
Haha sorry, i didnt notice my mistakes, i didnt care about that,so...
Ive read a lot of posts where people who rooted their phones wanted it to unroot back.Because it did some problems, or what... Is it legal ? i mean if i could still take my phone to service if something brokes down.but i think "capture screen" is the only thing id like to have.
Ok .Im waiting for official update 2.1 in my region.And i have to accept the fact that my mini will never have as wide selection as x10 has Because i want games only from market cause im afraid that my phone will get crazy like it happened on my old htc(i was downloading games from everywhere on web)
Please answer.Hope this is more understandable post.
Once rooted i always keep superuser and never unroot

well i have my phone rooted with no problems whatsoever.
with root u can:
-backup all ur apps and system data (titanium backup)
-remove/freeze some crapware like demos and other stuff u dont want and cant remove any other way
-tether (barnacle)
-change the framework (theme)
-do some little coding with terminal emulator...
-conquer the world (the reason we have a smartphone)
Thank you so much!
And one of the main questions ,will it (still) be under warrancy?after root?
So i keep waiting for upgrade to 2.1 and then ill root my phone.I really would like to delete apps which cannot be deleted.Or change theme (im sick of that blue menu).it all would be nice

Why would you want to do such an awful thing? our x10s have feelings, you know? don't take android away from them!
I can't understand why you buyed this phone if you didn't like its OS...........Don't talk silly........if you don't like it pls simply switch to another phone!!!!
I think out if curiosity i'd love to see this question answered... although i can't imagin abandoning the A-OS for anything currently available
P.s. this is only my "OPINION" but currently;
Technically; possible, our hardware meets the basic specs.
Physically; highly improbable due to a currently unhackable bootloader

Just corious beacuse S60 was easier and i love sony ericsson thats why i got this one
its cute but i feel its to hard to do some stuff.
*SPOILERS*
Hi i had an sony ericsson w600 when was younger; 14 or 15 though
i love it especially the VideoDJ app then i got a nokia 5800 when i was 17
i loved that phone was awesome and so cuztumizable was currently running C6 Firmware on it but the maid stole it i know the other one told me she has
NVM.
my dad was asking me if i wanted a new cellphone i told no dad idk really liked my nokia there was much stuff on it like: Feelings, Adventures, goodf time. and software related stuff also.
then i lost the hope of finding it and blocked it with a remote code
And i looked at a little pretty cellphone on a shelf and it remind me my old W600
i though oh that one would be nie so i got it.
*END*
dont missunderstand me i like my cellphone but is just that i miss stuff that i was able to do on my 5800 as well as video and photo edition tools that were present on w600
You Could... providing someone develops a working HAL so the software could communicate with the hardware!
Unfortunately, this doesn't exist and it is such a big job that manufacturers won't do it as they only seem to focus on one OS per device at a time (And then neglect to update it - No 2.2 for me)
So basically, whilst is is possible it is very improbable (Notice that I never said never!) LOL
Dude, have you ever launched the android market? Do you know how many photo and video apps you can find there?
Sent from my E10i using XDA App
Bro I did but those app are too buggy also internet is very slow I think bcause I cant get 3G (same data plan on other phone works fine)
Also I cant pause video recording wich is usefull 4 square by square animation.
And sorry I cant just dish my phone and buy a ndw one congratulations for those who can.
Can somebody point me to specific apps or rom
That could fill my needs
And deano thanks for the ROMS are wonderfull but im still being a newb
I think you didn't check out the right apps. I'm sure you'll find the right applications for you in there : there are close to 300000 applications in the market. For editing pictures, you have Photoshop express and hundreds more, for videos you have a whole bunch. If you can't get your 3G working, you should check with someone from your mobile company to configure your phone right : 3G works fine with the mini.
Finally, if you don't like this phone, you can sell it on eBay at a good price. Also, sorry to tell you this, but nowadays you'll find this same OS (Android) on most SE phones, Motorolla, LG, HTC, Samsung, etc... So you better get used to using it, unless you want to buy yourself an iPhone or a BlackBerry.
or just stick with Nokia.. good old Symbian (the reason I switched to SE from Nokia was because I wanted Android and Nokia refuses to see the light)
Why anyone would choose Symbian over Android is beyond my understanding.. but each to his own I guess.
Naaah im loving it nao but i need some guidance with root explorer
i mean if i rename an app as bak it will work on background but not all of them so waht can i do for hidng apps and they will fully function

[Q] HCL ME V1 tablet stuck in a boot loop, power button only works when 100% charged.

Okay, I know I'm supposed to search seven hells (watching too much Game of Thrones) before I post my question. The intro video was clear enough about that. But no, nothing helped. So here goes....
Hi guys,
My HCL ME V1 tablet (ICS 4.0.4, kernel 3.x.x, rooted with ME U1 root via SuperOneClick. Several forums said that this root would work for V1 as well) is stuck in a boot loop. The rest button does not solve the problem, neither does a hard reset (it simply does not go into hard reset from all the methods suggested online across various forums). I scoured heaven and earth to find how to go into recovery for this particular tablet but none of the solutions work.
The power button works only once when it's in 100% charge (green light on the top corner of lcd). After that I have to wait for it to get discharged completely and recharge it once again. All those tips of pressing the volume up and/or down button along with the power/home button and the reset pinhole... none of them worked in my case. I know its a corrupted OS issue and I can solve it. Only if I could somehow get the tablet to boot once or get into recovery or download mode. I know it for a fact that the power button i fine because... again... I stand witness to the fact that the tablet has not experienced any physical shock what-so-ever since the day it was bought. Also not to forget it works once when the tab is in 100% charge.
I can see two scenarios by which the problem might have started:
1. I downloaded FL Studio Mobile apk and its dlc from pirate bay. I copied the apk to the internal SD card (straight on the sd card not inside any folder), and the dlc was instructed to be copied to sdcard/Android/obb. The uploader had said that if the obb folder was not there, I had to create it and so I did and copied. Halfway through the dlc copy, my laptop hanged. So I terminated the process from taskmgr and disconnected my tab from the "disconnect from USB storage" page on the tablet.
2. Next I opened Android Tweaker (Pro?) to tweak a few parameters so that FL Studio Mobile could run a bit lag free. I'm not a power user so, I just used the auto-tweak feature for the performance settings. Next I rebooted via the app and lo! The tablet is now stuck in an eternal boot cycle loop.
I'm an electronic musician and like to have these apps on my devices so that I can make music on the go.
Also one thing I should mention is that while rooting the /bin/su file could not be executed, however installing Titanium Backup Pro (Root) had solved that problem as there was an option in that app to fix it.
Sorry for the long post :cyclops: but I think my problem is somewhat peculiar if not unique. No body else's solution is working and I think there are not many Indians who use the V1 tablet.
Solved
Thank you everyone for not replying to this post. You may have thought that the solutions existed in someone else's answers. But NO. None of anyone else's solutions worked.
I thought this was a place full of experts, but I guess you people are way too busy with your own stuff to really help others which is the purpose of this forum.
Anyways, I solved the problem. The tablet works fine, in fact it works even faster. And just to rub it in HCL's face, I've upgraded the internal memory and RAM. Yes I resoldered the PCB. Removed all the bloatware and useless stuff from our dear beloved Indian manufacturer.
But I'm not going to share how I solved this issue. None of you took the time to reply, so non of u will get this piece of knowledge upgrade. Funk you very much :victory:

Hey bro,
I am newbie with this HCL V1 tablet and it sucks a lot to use this. I got it sent to HCL store for repairing (to flash) just after 3 days I ordered it.
As you are the user of this tab you should be very well known to the problems this tab comes with. Even its not playing the Subway Surfer game smoothly, wt the hell with 1 GB RAM.
So please suggest me the twiks for this tab as like working rooting, global or transparent proxy (needs in college campus because in college wifi works only with default browser with no download at all (only in androids, downloads in symbian, iOS) probably because download runs with external app by default in androids as it shows differently in notification bar about the download progress).
Please help me to resolve these problems.
Thank you.

You are proving to the world how racist Indians are to each other nothing else. And I'm not a Bori wherever the **** they are from. Its Borah you "madarchod ki aulad hindustani" Of course now you will report this to the admin and I will get banned from this site. Or you're gonna throw your cheap sounding Indian abuses at me, or you will try to act like a smartass and type a nice sophisticated sounding comeback to make people sympathize with you. What else can your beta-male-Indian-ass do? Either way, you are insignificant to me and whatever you say is invalid in my world. And thank you for quoting me because finally I got a notification from this website.
For the rest of the people-
This thread is almost one year old now if you know how to read the English calendar. The FB account that was linked to this has been deleted almost a year ago. I don't exactly remember the solution but I cracked open the tablet, took out the ROM, took it to a friend who burns ROMs.
This tablet was meant for my dad which is why it pissed me off no end that it should malfunction. Eventually I threw this piece of **** in the trash and got him a Samsung tab that works the way it is meant to work.
My advice - save some money and buy a higher end android tab and your life will be much more peaceful. Unlike iOS where the hardware platform is pretty much standard, the wide variety of configurations on which android is installed is the main culprit here. You want smooth performance, less lag, and bug free performance, and easily available non-factory support? Honestly start saving money and get a better brand tab. No where else in the world do people push these cheap ass tablets so hard other than the third world.
I understand you all want the best bang for your buck but understand what "best" is first.
Now, you'll can crucify me in your replies if you want. I don't give two ****s about it. Peace out homos!
Calm Down Bro ...
thande thande raho bhai jaan ...
pls help
