can anybody feed me back about this subject...can we flash an android firmware on any phone , like we know there is some works about flashing android on nokia n9...i wana know if it is related on the processor and if there is a possibility to flash an android on LG BL40 ??
Well, I am a mod for an Italian forum focused on Nokia n900, that is the ancestor of Nokia n9 and I have been following for a couple of years the disappointing nitdroid project. I mean that, even the bootloader of Nokia n900 was absolutely unlocked (never been locked) in 2 years or even longer the devs were not able to get working phone module, camera and GPS.
N900 nowadays runs even ics, but with such restrictions!
The situation for Nokia n9 is a bit better. but it essentially depends on the availability of open source drivers.
So, I don't know your phone, but running a full working android is not so simple, if it hasn't been shipped by the manufacturer.
Simply put, no. You cant flash any ROM on any Android phone. The ROM has important things like drivers, frameworks, etc that only work with the phone it was built for.
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone with a Ramos i8/i9 has experimented with other custom roms and/or are aware of any stable roms that worked well with this Intel driven device ?
Thank you !
I have bought the Ramos i8 tablet (Have not received it yet though) and I am interested in testing custom roms as well. It has similar hardware with the Ramos i9 for which there are some custom roms around already (I think) so I suppose it could be ported from there (?)
There is an androidx86 project that has already released a 4.4 KitKat android for x86 devices (netbooks etc.) Could something like that be used in Ramos i8, i9 or similar Intel processor devices somehow? I suppose the install process is the hardest part...
Here is the link to the project:
http://www.android-x86.org/releases/releasenote-4-4-rc1
FYI I already asked in their group and there is a problem with the drivers of the PowerVR GPU. They are proprietary so it is not supported by androidx86.
Since there is no forum subsection for the i9 I could not post but I have some custom stuff running on my i9. I was asking the Slatedroid community if they wanted a release (which I could work on polishing) however not if only a few people will use it and help it keep going.

Hi Seven I'm quite keen on experimenting and would love to give ur concoction a try and I'm sure panpapad would too...
and what better place to share it than on XDA as it might draw other devs to help contributed.
Thanks heaps if you do share it on here...! :victory:
im very interested
Hey seven2099. I'm very interested in a custom rom. Was trying to post on the slatedroid forum but have to wait for the damn approval before I can post. So soon ill be n there with you. I was also wondering if anyone as found a custom recovery which works on the i9.
Hey guys! Sure I'd like to experiment with custom roms but I got the Ramos i8 not i9 tablet. It has very similar specs but still its a different tablet. So if anyone wants to work on i8 I can test .
Ramos i9 post-root issue
Hi guys,
Total newbie here.
Can anyone provide assistance on a root gone wrong?
Long story short: bought Ramos i9, rooted it in order to remove all the Chinese apps, and now no sound is coming through the speakers (only headphones).
Have tried rebooting, factory reset, and a second root. No luck.
Adb I used is adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140321. I tried Nexus 4 drivers after the second root, still nothing.
Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
P
Ramos i9 firmware-Update goes wrong
Hi, I have a problem with my Ramos i9.
I have loaded and run the latest firmware from the ramos.com.cn website. After I start the Update-Process the screen goes black and the device will not boot again. I think I install the wrong firmware for a Ramos i9 with GPS. Can somebody help me to reinstall the firmware by using a Windows-PC. Thanks!
Firmware Ramos i9
Hi seven2099;
Can you help me? I have a problem with my Ramos i9.
I have loaded and run the latest firmware from the ramos.com.cn website. After I start the Update-Process the screen goes black and the device will not boot again. I think I install the wrong firmware for a Ramos i9 with GPS.
I can connect the ramos to my PC but I have no idea to reinstall the firmware by using a Windows-PC.
Thanks! HolgerE
Hi Seven2099,
This tab is rebranded and sold as digiflip xt901 in India. Please share some of your ideas on firmware mods for this.
Thanks
Suren
Hi everybody I have Ramos i8 branded as polypad i8 in Turkey.
I research whether there is another ramos i8 that is branded diffrently in an another country.
I have found one in india.
called Digiflip Pro XT 801 Tablet and with sim card Digiflip Pro XT811 Tablet.
XT 801 and XT 811 are the same configuration except 3G.
There are some who achieved to update XT811 to kitkat(4.4) but what about XT801(i8) ?
Here is link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/kitkat-firmware-update-procedure-t2984011?nocache=1
Is it worth to try? What do you think.
Edit:
Not working becuse has different Rom.
Not try.
---
No you cant......the firmware of xt801 is different from xt811......this may brick your device
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
XT801 AND XT811 ARE BELOW:

The Dell Venue 3830 tablet (8 and 7 inch-3730) is to my knowledge the only z2580 based android tablet that has an official kitkat release.
Since there are so many different z2580 devices out there without updates newer than 4.2.2 it would be a great project for many people (including me) to see if that Dell rom can be ported and optimized for other z2580 devices.
My major issue is ram on my 1GB z2580 tablet (only ~200mb free after clean reboot). A kitkat update would in many ways solve that issue and make the tablet a solid useable device. (No my kernel does not support swap.) The cpu is quite fast and a shame to waste.
Edit: Asus Zenfone 5 and 6 are both Intel z2580 devices with official kitkat updates, (and cyanogenmod seems to be supported, surprisingly). Their roms could be useful for the z2580 community. Possibly moreso than the Dell Venue since reports show the kitkat firmware to have some stability issues for some people.

Good news.
When i ask ramos firm, they said that they will issue new rom as soon as intel issue a rom apropriote for x86.
They blamed intel for not issuing new rom app to x86.
For more ram you should use greenify. It makes the ram free up to 460 mb.
And not to mention nova launcher with dcikonz theme.

Mayb your device is ramos i9 3g not the normal one if 3g i can help u root it or provide u the official firmware
My recently purchased mobile phone is the THL T200, must of you may or may not have heard of it by now. I'm trying to get a proven procedure to safely update (upgrade) the actual O.S. installed in the phone (4.2.2) to the final >unifying version for android from Google< 4.4...
The manufacturer site thlmobilestore.com at their thlsupport site has not yet announced how to get it. I can only assume that Google is currently too busy trying to make it work with the big firms (Samsung, HTC, and LG) first before allowing Chinese companies to grab a piece of the cake.
I know for previous experiences that the first web site publishing software procedures and mobile settings is this one, so I decided to be the first asking for (prove-to-work) and detailed step-by-step ways to update the OS.
Please... any comment not-related to this specific phone or update procedures to 4.4 kit-kat try to post it on any other thread? I'm sure the moderators will agree with me irrelevant comments and interfering assumptions won't help.
Thanks and expecting to hear from one of you soon :cyclops:
Hello, sorry for yet another Pokemon Go related android firmware upgrade conundrom, but I' here to ask if anyone here knows of any custom/official firmware for Huawei Y330 that is Kitkat 4.4 instead of the standard Jelly Bean 4.2.2.
I've started my search by looking at phones with similar Chipset (MT6572) on wikipedia and looked at all of the specifications of the Huawei phones listed under that particular chipset to see if most match my phone. Problem is that my search for a custom Rom for Y330 specifically has yielded no results so far, so maybe a more generel approach finding roms from similar phones would be better.
If you know of or have any KitKat firmware for any of the phones listed under MT6572 in the provided Wikipedia page, especially if it's a Huawei, it would be a big help if you could provide a link/help for downloading and trying to install it on my phone.

NOPE, DON'T EXPECT ANDROID 8 OR HIGHER ROMS FOR THIS TABLET.
No one wants to develop software for old ****ing things that aren't iconic or popular enough nowadays, everyone's either focusing on modern phones from Google, Xiaomi, etc.... or phones that were literally hot **** back then (like the Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, etc...)
Highest you can go is Lollipop (and maybe, Marshmallow?)

If your model is a 7D-50xx/S7-30xx variant, you can get custom ROMs for them.
For 7D-50xx (Mediapad X1) models, there's only a beta version of Lollipop from Huawei (and since it's a beta from Huawei, that means there must have been an official update already - go check your updates in the settings if your model is the 7D-50xx model.)
For S7-30xx (Mediapad T1, 7 inches) models, you can get CyanogenMod 10.1 running on it, but that is on 4.2.1. But since you don't give me the specifics of your model name, I don't think I'll be able to help you much.
hey may i ask how u managed to unlock the bootloader, i went through hell i have the 701W version but i can't find any proper solution.
