Hi,
I've installed Android-x86 on my old Asus EeePC 1001P - so far so good! But now I have several questions and will be very thankfull if somebody has the patience to answer me
1st and most important - during the installation i've made a partition - 2047MB, but now the system sees only 2 gb, the other partitions (158gb) are not visible. What should I do to see and use them?
Is there any tutorial for rooting the device? I've rooted and installed CFW on my HTC Explorer (if this can count as any experience :laugh: ).
I believe that it's all for now. Thanks in advance for all answers and help!

Did you manage to solve this problem? I have the same one.
Hi guys,
I need your kind help. I am in Ireland/UK/EU
I bought THL W6 from Antelife : tinyurl.com /cprnkvj
Basic Information
Model:THL W6
Band:2G: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
3G: WCDMA 850/2100MHz
Sim Card: Dual Sim Card Dual Standby
OS: Android 4.0.3
CPU:MTK 6577 1GHz Cortex A9 Dual Core + SGX531 GPU
ROM:4GB
RAM:1GB
Screen: 5.3 Inch
The phone works fine,but the app store pre-installed in in chinese...so I installed googlplay, it installed fine, but when I click on it It does not open. Although I can install many of the application via 'apk installer' but its really pain to find to apps on 4shared and some local apps are only available on GooglePlay.
I emailed, antelife, and no help or reply from them. emailed THL W6, they replied "We only deal with china customers" So basically there is no support for this phone. and I come across xda developer, although there are many other models of chinese phones here are talked about, but I could not find THL W6 model.
I am afraid to brick it incase I installed wrong image or rooted it incorrectly. I have rooted/jailbroken android, iphones, ipads in the past, but this time I m bit worried this time.
I found another website 4pda.ru/forum/ index.php? showtopic= 400088 and found to be helpful to some extent, but the image and contents are in russian, so not much of help either.
Can any one please help me to root and run GooglePlay store or guide me to right direction.
Many thanks in advance for your kind help and support
regards

I am not sure, did you root your phone already or not yet. but its certain you have to root it and install CWM ROM and then move gapps zip to memory of your phone, restart phone in recovery mode and install from SD card "yes" it will install google play and also will fix Location services and will remove other not needed files from phone(only if you want to)
I had made a detailed guide at gurufoxy.blogspot.ie and also a small video just giving some overview, that what is involved etc.

Hi,
fine that you have solved the problems with the app store.
But wondering that you had problems because have the same phone and app store runs with no problems.

I think it depends from who you buy the phone, some chinese sellers sell the phone rooted and googstore apks pre installed, some even asks extra charges to do rooting etc for you and some even dnt bother doing anything, they only send you the phone as it is(as happened in my case and other previous poster).
I found out after I got the phone that GooglePlay store does not work in China and they have different Appmarket and search such as Biadu over there. So people should make sure this thing with the chinese seller before they placed the order or better asked for rooted and googlePlay store installed to escape all this hassle.:silly:
Can it be that your phone only supports 3 languages,english and simplified/ traditional chinese ?
Then we knew the difference why my app store works, have an multilingual version.
ROM: ThL.W6.121110.ICS.V13.QHD.EN.COM.8P32_S501_MT6577
The phone was not rooted, but after searching MTK Droid Root & Tools helped.
That may the cause of googlePlay crash.
On my phone it shows different version ROM than yours, and it does not shows many languages and choices either..
Well, the phone is in great form, its still fast while running so many different apps in the background, but you can imagine it drains the battery fast, but if I turn off bunch of apps, battery life gets better.

To my understanding, the 4 gig ROM has been divided into several areas, such as system files area, cache area, Internal storage area, phone storage area. When you install applications, it will be stored either in the Internal storage or phone storage area. The 2 gig area you mentioned is the phone storage. You can check the spaces left on your phone through "Setting-> Device-> Storage".
For the gps issue, I think this may help. (Since I am a new user, the system does not allow me to issue an external link as such I put a space after the "http") "http ://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2F4pda.ru%2Fforum%2Findex.php%3Fshowtopic%3D393538%26st%3D760%23entry17787246"
Good luck.

Hello guys.
I have thL w6 with 22.10 stock rom.
My problem is regional restrictions in google play.
Cant download very important app for me.
Cracked market from Chelpus 3.10.10 helps with paid apps, but i still cant install some apps because of region.
Lucky patcher with its multi dpi patches doesnt help either.
Did anyone had the same problem?
hi guys, I know help has been asked plenty of times for this and other phones. also I read dozaens of guides, but this instead of helping me, made me very confused :crying:
here is my problem: my girlfriend's sk17i has a terrible signal connection, so I would like to try different basebands on it (could that fix the problem or at least improve the situation?)
my problem is that I didn't understand clearly what I need to do on the phone to change basebands.. root? unloack bootloader? install cwm? install custom roms or stock ics will be ok?
ps. I am not new in root, see my signature I own a rooted defy+ and installed dozens of custom roms on it, so I would just like to know from you which preliminary steps I have to do and are strictly necessary to change basebands, once I know that I will try to do that by myself following the many guides I found..!
pps. I would like to do as less things as possible, just because it is not my phone and if I brick it a can get killed :laugh: if it was mine no problem I did everything possible on mine
thanks in advance for all the help you can provide
bye!

To change baseband, you only need Flashtool, proper FTF file (every firmware includes different baseband) and phone with USB cable.
No root, no need to unlock bootloader, no CWM, any ROM will do.
Which baseband(BB) are you currently using? Also, which ROM?

thanks for the reply!
good to hear.. seems I can try different BB's pretty easily so
she's on stock ICS 4.0.4..
BB: 8x55a-aaabqoazm-203028g-77
FW: 4.1.B.0.587
if it was mine, I would have already rooted, unlocked it and tried FXP cm10.. I can't stand all those sh*tty apps included in stock roms.. but as I wrote it is not mine and if I brick it that would be a big problem..
(even if actually she is using it as it was a old phone as data connection is almost un-usable.. 3g status is always almost 0, and 2g can not be used because of operator problems.. : ( ) so she can only use it with WI-FI in the office and then no data connection anymore..
that's bad, I bought her that phone and if I knew before data connection signal was so bad I would have never bought it
you think I can improve the situation trying different BB? tx again!
I doubt it will help. I do not think changing baseband will make it any better.
Try the same SIM card in another phone(s). Does the issue still occur in other phone(s)? If yes, the issue is with either the SIM or the operator.
Then try another SIM card in the Mini Pro. Does the issue still occur with another SIM card in Mini Pro? If yes, then the issue lies in your phone.
I have already made tests, troubleshooting etc (I work in a service department :laugh: ) and I am sure the problem is on the phone that's why I would like to try a different BB as last hope.. if that won't work then I will trow it away and buy something else.. :crying:
bull****

Hi
Hi crazykiddo
I installed boot animation app that change the boot animation
I pressed by mistake a button in the app "boot into download mode'
and now the only thing appear on screen "no usb connected"
can you help me please?
Successfully rooted
Thanks so much!! I have successfully rooted my asus-ME172V-WW_user_4.5.4.52875837_20140520 (latest firmware). I was just wondering if the custom AMPC rom would also be updated to support this firmware. But yet again thanks for your hard work.

For now no.
But maybe in the future when I have time again. since its a long process (Asus have changed the system a lot)
I would just use Xposed framework (make sure to read up on it before use)

Yeah, managed to get Xposed Framework to work fine(nice tweaks and all).
But just asking, would the custom rom affect the performance of the tablet in any way?? Cuz its kinna laggy and after all, its a single core processor. XD
its safe root me172v
well it's safe root this tablet?
What link do I use
Hi I'm new to rooting and xda, and I wanted to know which link is for the latest firmware.
Stuck at loading when trying to root newest firmware
I was elated to find out that you have released an update to the root util of the newest firmware, however, after restarting the phone with all the correct files, it hangs on loading at start up. I read another person's reply that he had successfully rooted the newest firmware with the Me172vRootUtil_v0.3 package.
Is there any additional risk involved in rooting with that package or should I wait for a fix to the newest root toolkit instead?
Bricked`?
Hi gyes..
I did just buy a Asus Memo Pad used real cheap.
And i did it becouse it looked bricked and wanted to see if i could unbrick it.
I have been reading here and there and im wondering.
Do i have to use an micro SD card?
Can i use a regular micro USB to connect to computer?
And is there a way after you see the pictures i have posted if it is in any way possible to unbrick it?
If not. then hey. i lost alitle bit money.
If yes. can you please guide me to the correct tread (if you know it)?
The picture with the asus logo is what it looks like in startup.
After a long while the other picture is how the screen looks like.
Edit.
I fixed it.
I found a restore and did put it on a SD card. Then everything went splendid.
After i wanted to try to install a new recovery on it. So i did the steps required to install a new one.
But under bootload the computer did not see the tablet. So im stuck at bootloader right now.
So if anyone know how to get out of it. PLEASE share.
I will uppdate this post ion how things go along.
Is it possible to use the 8GB dumps on a 16GB model? Will it break?
Kitkat support
Hi I'm thinking of buying this tablet, was wondering what is the latest Android version for the tablet? Is it 4.1 Jellybean?
HELP!!!
I bought my first android tablet and its a me172v 16gb but it has no basic apps, not even google play store. It has a lot of test apps like battery testsuite and touch test. The build says asus-ME172V_WW_eng-4.5.4.12334547_20130205 test-keys. I have been searching all day but do not know how to just restore this to default factory version or anything that will provide me with google play store.. PLEASE someone help me or point me in the right direction.
Heyy Crazykiddo, sorry to bother you. Ive been really keen when the AMPC Rom would be updated to support the new firmware. Ive been checking the thread frequently and just so if you happen to want to update it, please keep me posted. Youre the only guy i know who has done the root for this device. Im pretty attached to this device, haha
My Asus MeMo Pad 7 (ME172V) turns on by itself, very annoying
Hi everyone,
I'm new to this Android thing, I'm more of an iPad guy but I thought I could give this little thing a try in order to get more up close and personal with an Android tablet. I got that thing from a friend, and he said that it works fine but there is a catch. Whenever the thing is sleeping, it will wake up all of a sudden for no reason at all, then go back to sleep after 10 seconds, then eventually wake again, and so on. When the tablet is connected to a wall outlet or a USB port, it won't wake up like this.
Do you guys have a suggestion? This is driving me nuts.
Here's a video of the said behavior:
Hi,
I did some research but was unable to solve my problem. First, please excuse me for using bad english, and above all, to be a noob...
So, here is the thing : I own the HTC Desire 650, which were given to me so I couldn't choose the model... I am not satisfied by usual phone OS, but as i'm not really confident with programming, I usually keep android, as it is... But this time, it was too much.
I like hi-res music, so I have a DAC, wich i usually connect to my laptop, to redirect the signal to hi-fi. But i wanted to use otg cable to connect the dac on my smartphone. As android 6 marshmallow was supposed to be OTG-Compatible, I buy some otg adapter. But unfortunately, it didn't work. After some research, I found that I had to unlock the bootloader and root the phone in order to modify the vold.fstab (That seems easy with a root browser). But it was a mistake, as with android >5, this file is in the boot.img.
So now, I already unlock the bootloader, install the twrp recovery and root the phone. But I am unable to find the boot.img in order to unpack/modify vold.fstab to add otg lines/repack the boot.img.
I tried to find the boot.img with cat: /proc/mtd command but can't go further... ("no such file or directory"... I am on win 10, adb+fastboot installed)
Would some nice developper or more experienced one, give me a hand on this matter ? I just discovered the android world and I'm curious on this things.
Anyway, as it seems that no custom rom is available for htc desire 650, I wanted to swap phones with my grilfriend, but she said : NO !
thanks very much if you can help me !!
See you
Hi,
Nobody coud help me ?
Is there any solution or do I have to accept that I can't activate otg on this phone, even with a modified boot image ?
Thanks very much for your help
