[Q] Any help on updating Infotmic Wowpad?

Hi I have an Infotmic Wowpad that has been with me for around a year now and I've been wondering how I could update it.To me its a real brick as its so bloody slow and its battery life is bad too.I want to do a major upgrade to this tablet so I could play numerous games,watch movies and videos and other things like Skype.Another problem is that the old Android Market on this supports only like 5 apps for my tab! .Plz can someone help me update this thing with a easy simple way.I dont even know if its rooted or not and I would love to update it to either a fast and less laggy version of Froyo,Gingerbread or ICS.Some important info to know:
1.Model Number-deb
2.Firmware version-2.1-update1
3.Kernel version-2.6.32.9
4.Build number-deb-r2.1.1561
Thats pretty much it and it would be great if someone helped me turn it into a daily device as I have seen many reports on the net that this device can turn out amazing.
Thanx for reading and hopefully i can change this tablet as soon as possible.

here http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/gome-flytouch-ii-firmware/12723-froyo-android-2-2-running-ft2-series-tablets-confirmed.html is how to upgrade your tablet to froyo 2.2
i dont find any gb or ics updates
Btw are Infotmic Wowpads already rooted and should i root it before doing this if it isnt rooted and where do i find 2.1 v3245 coz i dont have that one....

Moving to Q&A
I found site with tutorial:

But there is link with firmware on megaupload which is closed and i can't find any other site
Sent using r800i with DoomKernel v14 (1.21ghz)
One quick question...is Flytouch2 already rooted,does it need to be rooted with some kind of app?
I can't help u too much with it but i think u don't need root.
As i read from sites (i gave in previous posts): when u start ur device from SD card with rom it should start flashing/copying files so it has installed sth what let u do it and u dont need nothing new (like root)
I can say that on my Xperia i dont need root to flash roms, so its possible that u dont need it too
Sent using r800i with DoomKernel v14 (1.21ghz)
Should i just use the sites XDA have said to use to get android.rar, because androidtablets said if that megaupload didnt work that we should go to XDA's choice of mediafire...another question is this the one i wanted 2.1 v3245?

[Q] Galaxy S3 clone. Please help a newbie who's willing to learn

Hey guys,
This is my 1st post here ever.
The only time I fiddled around with rooting an android phone was more than a year ago when I had an AT&T Samsung infuse. I followed very detailed instructions on how to root it and upgrade it. It worked like a charm and I'm so grateful to all of you experts trying to help newbies.
A friend of mine went to China last month and brought me a Samsung s3 clone.
The phone is factory unlocked BUT
1. It doesn't have the original google play application. It has a similar logo which leads to a Chinese app store.
2. Google mail account application is missing
3. The phone supports only Chinese, Korean and English languages. (I'd like to use it in different ones)
So I need to re-install a good Android version that has all the Android features that I'm missing
I thought it would be easy to find instructions on how to do it it here, but unfortunately I wasn't lucky to find a direct and clear step -by step instructions for my phone model
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-i9300
Model #: mtk6515_ics2
Android version: 4.0.4
Base band version: MAUI.11AMD.W12.22.SP.V14
Kernel Version: 3.0.13
[email protected]#1
Build Number: ALPS.ICS2.MP.V1.18
Custom Build Version: V15.12
Please help!
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there? :crying:
Hey man,
unfortunately I don't think anyone can help you rooting/changing roms as it's a replica and there isn't a real development for it.
BUT as for the play store you can DL the apk directly from here:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/05/14/download-latest-google-play-store-4-1-6/
As for the phone language, after installing the google play store look for:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale&hl=en
and choose the language of your wishing. That is in case that your phone supports it.
If you mean by google mail account the gmail app then in that case:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...ith-slide-out-navigation-and-brand-new-inbox/
BTW for future references - try to make a search for yourself I'm sure you could've find those in less than a minute
Cheers.
Thanx
Thanx a lot for your effort and concern.
I downloaded the latest google play apk, I installed it, but it wasn't working apparently because "google login service" and "google services framework" were missing too!
So I downloaded them, but they needed to be installed in system/apps.
I downloaded "root explorer" which should help me accessing the system folder.
I copied&pasted the apps in system/apps but a message says "your phone should be rooted first in order to paste" came out.
So back to square1
On the other hand, I tried to disactivate some of the annoying Chinese applications that came with the system using "root app delete", and guess what?
I get the same message that I should root this phone first.
So how can I root this bloody thing???
Yeah that is sounds pretty frustraing..Well I guess you won't find here a "how to root s3 replica" guide and personally I wouldn't try and rooting the device as it could easily brick it.
I suggest you go to the store and tell them that you've got a phone with no option to download apps, or connect to your Google account...
Hope you'll sort things up with the store soon

I wish I could follow your advise. The shop is 4000 miles away in China.
There is a google store app installed, but it's fake. It has a similar icon but with different proportions. The problem is that it's in Chinese and it deals with chinese applications.
Oh that is unreachable, but maybe can you contact them via Email etc..?
Anyways I found this thread I think you'll see it much more beneficial than my help as I don't have experience on rooting replicas and it's focused on your device:

thanx,
This method is for i9300 mtk6575
Will it work on my phone which is i9300 mtk6515_ics2?
What are my chances to brick the phone if I follow this procedure?

If you flash recovery from different device, there's a big chance you brick it
Try to use MTKDroidTools to root it, its pretty safe.
As @lolet said correct, you can possibly brick your phone...
That's why I advise you to ask in the thread I've linked onto, there are fellows there with much more experience than myself with rooting your device.
I guess in the last couple of years I've flashed hundreds of times but only on samsung, htc and motorolas.
Cheers

[Q] FirefoxOS on Galaxy Nexus: SIM card not detected

Hi,
I'm currently working to make FirefoxOS (B2G) working on Galaxy Nexus (maguro).
To build it, I have an Ubuntu 12.04 in a VM and I followed those guides: Firefox OS build prerequisites and Firefox OS Building from developer Mozilla website.
I built from the master branch without any particular difficulty (except the duration )
Since recently there is no more 'black screen issue' on boot, meaning the galaxy nexus is usable again :victory: but on my side the SIM card isn't detected :crying:
I tried many time to remove / re-insert the SIM card, used a different one... I'm still not able to make it detected. On android I have no problem of course.
I'd like to find a way to fix this, (and later enable NFC) but i'm new on FirefoxOS development and I'm looking for some help, or at least some pointer to start to debug this.
Any help is welcome. :good:

Samsung A10s Android 10 Update

Hi maam/sir, good evening!
I'm here again to ask a new question.
I just got some notification avout installing android 10 for Samsung A10s one ui core 1.1
Is it safe to install android 10?
Does installing android 10 can erase ueer data?
Samsung A10s non rooted 32GB android 9 one ui core 1.1
Thanks guys!
@Need help very urgent
Moving from Android 9 to Android 10 is an upgrade, not an update. Don't think Samsung offers such an upgrade for free.
If you're already on Android 10, then Samsung offers you an OTA ( Android 10 OS patch ) what can get accepted: it doesn't affect device's user-data, they remain untouched by this update.
So you mean by upgrading to android 10 can cause data loss?
First off good day to you all so I hard reset my galaxy a 10 u and now it won't read any sim card do I need to install an sd card driver?? Thanx for your time [email protected]

That might occur ( swiping all internal data ), but not everytime. Hence keep backup of all your data before you flash your device

General [Info] Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite

See:
Samsung's Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has leaked once again before launch
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has leaked once again via unofficial press renders that have been shared by Evan Blass.
www.xda-developers.com
I love the tablet, bought two of the 4GB/64GB for $149 each directly from Samsung site.
Well worth the money, I got them for gaming and watching videos, web surfing, really great tablets.
Can this tablet be rooted ?

Impreza thank you for making me rest.....I've been surfing online finding answers if that tablet can be rooted...please let me know if you guys found more info..thank you
Bought this thinking it was an upgrade from my Galaxy tab a 8.0 but since it's one ui core it's missing many features. Trying to trade it in now but it's past the 15 days. There's no smart view to mirror to any tv easily, theres no network file manager in my files (can't access G drive or any others).
Just make sure you know what you're buying. It's not lite because of being smaller than A7, it's a stripped down OS and the features can't be installed afterwards (have tried many apks). I didn't want a big tablet, wanted a mid size tablet with upgraded CPU.

I agree with that. If you are sure you know what you're buying, the experience of the A7 Lite isn't bad. One UI Core is the same stripped down OS in the regular A7 (Snapdragon 662) and in the A7 Lite. CPU works very fluid if you tweak some settings (default One UI animations are awfully slow). Battery lasts A LOT (8,5-9 hours SOT). Smart View was removed and changed in all One UI devices with the upgrade to Android 11/One UI 3.0 (regular and Core), and it was replaced with Google Cast native screen mirroring (ergo Chromecast).
Use Solid Explorer or Amaze if you want to access network file places. It works well on my side.
Despite being a Mediatek tablet, you wont't find anything MTK-related in the tablet. Samsung has its software very well masked. And I think that, in Helio P22T, Mediatek vulnerabilities have been fixed with security monthly patches.

Just wanted to chime in here and say that I successfully rooted the tablet using the same method for the Lite as the regular A7 using THIS GUIDE. Obviously it tripped Knox but I needed it rooted for my use case. One note is that when you download the stock firmware with an application like Samsung Firmware Downloader, make sure you choose the correct Model and Region. These can be found in the settings on the tablet.
Is it possible to enable Google Discover for default launcher?
I bought Galaxy Tab A7 Lite LTE SM-T225 3/32GB and it works quite nice. Small and good device. Would be cool to see on it clean Android or LineageOS (fingers crossed). There is not too many ~8 inch tablets today with the latest Android version.

I've been working on porting TWRP for AOSP Android 11 to this device but have run into some roadblocks.
I currently have TWRP running but touch is not working and I can't seem to get Data R/W with the current tools available. It's possible it's an error in my build or maybe a workflow problem.
If anyone out there with more experience is doing the same or wants to help me sort some things out, please let me know.
I purchased the SM-T225 LTE 4/64GB model, a good device, but there was a problem on the latest T225XXU1AUH5 & UI3 firmware, specifically with a modem... after the end of the call, the mobile network disappears, and after rebooting Baseband Unknown Flashing does not help, only resetting the data helps, but before the next call... The device had Root rights, but is now installed stock firmware and blocked the bootloader, but the problem remains... At the same time, if you install the old modem UDA,UE3,UF2 , it works without problems... Has anyone encountered anything like this?
My only disappointment is that knox is included. I came from tab A 8.0 2019 which has no knox

Bought one earlier today for a second screen for browsing while I'm gaming on the laptop. Got way more than I expected for such a cheap price. Debloated and tweaked, I really can't complain.
