I am trying too to root this Chuwi... With the 1st attachment, it was created a temp file in "0" space. With the new attachment, its created in tmp in sdcard1. Does this stay correct in my case? Thanks in advance.
Rom
Hi!
If possible please upload anywhere the original chuwi Vi7 rom.
Thanks!
Hi,
Yes, there is a 0 byte file created (that is what the touch command does)
This is so that custom recoveries can check for the presence of the file and then ´know´ the phablet is rooted.
Vi7 can not switch wify on
dear
i am VI7 seller
jsut sell out 2200 orders out
now our customer just do not switch the wify on
they need to brush teir tablet
but i just do not knwo how to brush it
would you give me a instrunction ?
Hi,
I just wanted to let you know that I made a similar rooting procedure and script for the Chuwi Vi7. I got good results using SuperSU instead of Kingoroot.
I posted it on this Github repository:
Code:
https://github.com/Pacien/vi7-root
thanks for your contribution, cleaner coding than mine
Just 2 observations...
1) you do not verify that remount worked
2) line 39
rm /system/bin/install-recovery.sh
you loose the original patch command in the file
should be instead:
mv /system/bin/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery-2.sh
This way it will still be loaded.
Also ... why do you ask to install superSU on data when the script is installing it on system?

I actually do make a backup copy of this file on line 38, naming it `install-recovery.sh.bckp`.
I'll change the script to name it in the way you mentioned so that it will still be loaded.

In fact I did not have realized that the APKs put in `/system/app` would be automatically extracted x)
The format is
/system/app/appname/appname.apk
(used to be different in older android builds)
Now the next challenge is to unlock the bootloader so a custom recovery can be put together with a Vi7 specific fstab.recovery
Personally I will start once I get my hands on a Vi7 with a working touch screen

I registered on this site just to say a big THANK you for this.
I've never touched android devices before, and promptly bricked this tablet. your guide to reflashing it saved me.
One note that I had to do to get it to flash, was fastboot oem lock. It will not work unlocked. Also, it still took under 30 seconds to flash correctly for me, so having that as a check probably isn't valid for everyone.
Chuwi VI7 Gapps not present
Hi,
Recently i have bought a Chuwi Vi7 Tab from Aliexpress.
On making it on , i didn't found Gapps ,which is a basic app for mobile phones and Tab .
I tried multiple times of installing Gapps but its of no use.
Please help.
Subho
At 1st boot there are no Gapps, but - if you check the 'Update...' tab in Settings - you'll see there's an update firmware available. If you proceed to install the update, then you'll have the Play Store...
At least, that was my case.

Thanks for your reply.
Are you referring to the update which is there inside settings
Settings ---> About phone --> system update.
If it is the same , i already have tried but its showing me no new update available.
If you are referring of some other update then please specify.
Do you have the update stored in your TAB , in that case if you can upload the same ,

Yes, I' m reffering to that one.
I'll specify the version I installed the moment I arrive home...
The current version I have on my Vi7 is:
CW-Vi7-20150724-1900
Quick question: how many partitions and what size each of them has?
On mine there's only one partition - Internal storage - with some 3.6Gb (after installing a few GPS apps only 1.5Gb free).
I'm pretty intrigued as my other tablet - a Pipo S1 Pro - with similar features has two partitions: a 2Gb Internal storage (on which apps are installed) and a 4.5Gb NAND flash (at my discretion).

When you have received the Tablet, was it pre-loaded with Gapps and other softwares.
As my Tablet is not having any of the important software.
When I received the tablet, there was no Gapps present (not even PlayStore). I had no possibility of adding a Google account to the tablet (only other mail account or Exchange account). I downloaded a playstore apk, installed it, but couldn't make it work.
Then I searched for updates, found the update mentioned above, installed it and added Google account (it was now possible); concerning Gapps, only Play Store was installed as part of the new update (if I remember correctly)...

In the 1st post towards the bottom there is now a mega link with a full rom to flash that is NOT the crane but the Chuwi v1.1 with gapps installed
I'm sorry if this is the wrong thread but it seems this is the only place to ask.
Is it possible to save/move apps to a SD card? i can't find any option to do so and app2sd report this tablet doesn't support. not rooted and stock
Part I: description on this ChuWi vi7 tablet with 1GB RAM and 8GB flash.
Intel x3-C3230RK (j.v. with Rochip built by 28nm TSMC fab, has 2x 512KB L2 cache) SoFIA
which runs 32-bit Android 5.1.1.
Quad Core CPU is clocked at 416-900MHz (728MHz nominal) is a bit weak (Intel data brief says it's 1.2GHz x 4): GeekBench3 321 & 956.
I think the tablet is downgraded for thermal throttling (plastic case, not metal.) Suspect SDP is somwhere in between 2-3W.
GPU is ARM Mali450 4-core clocked at 600MHz which Antutu gives high score (at 1280x600 LCD resolution.) It should be good at 1080p (not on this tablet.)
It has 3-axis accelerator, USB OTG, GPS and single SIM slot. Proximity sensor seems to be emulated by touch screen multi-point. Li-Ion is on low capacity (~2500mAh) side.
This tablet when first received from China, there is no Google Play Store nor rooted. After performing phone system update, Google Play now works.

Part II Rooting and mishaps
Rooting is difficult.
Find adb 1.0.32 (exact version needed) and install in a Windows PC (C:\adb).
Install Intel Android device driver first, then (Volume up then plug-in the USB, wait for 15 seconds.) Wait until in Device Manager the Vi7 device is recognized as the Intel Android Device.
At the same time, the tablet screen should show the Android robot with a minimal menu.
I transferred the files (unzipped, from main thread, first post) and
Using XDA vi7root script indeed gained the root.
However, I immediately found the Play Store problem, can't install any app (error 504) nor the existing apps can be updated.
---------- Post added at 01:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:24 AM ----------
Hope this could help:
After Intel Inside flash screen,
It shows one additional screen right before the Home screen showing up.
Android is starting...
Starting apps.

Help needed. I turned off my chinese tablet (Cybernav Mini) and the next time I turned in on it showed: "Sorry! The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly... Force Close. ". It shows up again, one after another. I press Force Close and then quickly another pops up, showing the same or a similar message.
I can't use the tablet as those messages block any other function of the tablet, i can turn it off by long press the power button or pressing the reset button but when it reboots, it happens all over again. Even after draining the battery for few days, when i boot it again, same problem happens. The problem is after i click on Force Close, it gives me another error too fast and i can't do anything like installing or use any app.
I contacted support and they sent me the last firmware for the device (YFPI08), but when I put the folder it in the external microSD card and power it on, it wont read it and instead it will go through the normal boot process and the Sorry! force close problem comes back again. I can't find a combination of pressing the two only hardware buttons it's got that could take me into some sort of rescue boot either.
I tried fastboot from my computer but it doesnt recognize the connected tablet.
I can't find any other way, as I am not too familiar with Android, and every solution seems to be very device specific oriented. So please, if there is a solution, I would appreciate your help.
Cheers

I doubt there is any custom rom for that tablet, nevertheless, if you know where I can find one, and how to do it, please, link me to the right place.
Also it is worth to mention that when this problem happened, I was playing with the Z4root app, so there is a possibility that I accidentally messed up with the rooting of the tablet. Would that make sense?
Cheers
45 reads no reply, someone must have at lest a simple suggestion, like bin the tablet or something, but I was told that here I was going to get some help in this forum. No one?

OK. Tested with the device using PhoenixCard img writer. The tablet boots up, but in safe-mode.
WIFI not working. But everything else seems to work.
I'm guessing the wifi chip in this device (PW08) isn't the same as in the YDPG18, though almost everything else is, except it's only a gps device.
Didn't test if the gps works ... still testing to see if there are some ics firmwares working for the device.
Dracotek did send me a link to the stock firmware, downloadable from 4shared - ask them for it I guess.
Link had this image in it:
pw08_20120428.img
Android 2.3.4, radioversion 2.0, kernel #r1-91-g1cd40ad, build #r1-151-g46cf014

Way more chinese then the ydpg18 one. Also no wifi
But this rom dons't put ics in safe mode...
Argh. Anyone able to run ICS with wifi on the Cybernav Mini 2 device?

Very cool firmware, tested
TAB224 GoTab Velocity 7" Tablet - Firmware TAB224_A404.img
- wifi and gps not supported I guess when used on PW08.
Resolution is 800x480 / but text seems a bit small possibly because of PW08 is only 5".
Clean and simple, touch works and graphics is smooth and fast. Sound works.
-It is made by Yarvik.
Hope this can help - this is from stock PW08 firmware GB 2.3.4

I've just launched into all this as I mucked my CyberNav. Thanks to your research (and a whole lot of googling on my own), I've now got serveral ROMs to chose from. Feeling a lot better now, actually.
Just wanted to say thanks,

A question about this...
I use PhoenixCard on a Win7 computer to "burn" an image to inserted sdcard. Mounting the result shows a "dynamic" folder full of 512 byte bin files.
So, I put said card in the CyberNav and turn it on. It boots normally and, after a short while, says "safe to remove sdcard." No rom update.
Am I doing anything wrong here?
Now, I'm attempting this because I mucked the internal sdcard partitions and it is entirely possible that said mucking is stopping the external sdcard from being read on boot. But, I just wanted to verify the proceedure I'm following before I start down the partition editing route.
Any suggestions?
David...
Your device should boot up showing a progress-bar if you insert a working upgrade sdcard.
When finished screen will say CARD OK and the device will shut down.
Remove the sdcard before booting up again.
If you do not remove the upgrade card the device will start to upgrade itself over again.
The sdcard indeed show a folder called dynamic with 100+ small files.
The upgrade files are in a hidden (to windows anyways) partition.
What firmware are you trying to flash?

Ahh, CyberNav Mini, not Mini II. I tried the pw08_20120428 and xTAB-50 images.
So, now I'm left wondering... is the failure to load the rom because the bootloader is smart enough to recognise an incorrect rom or is it dumb enough to give up on a bad partition? I'm still thinking it's the partitions.
But, I guess now I'm still looking for a working rom for the thing too. I may not need it if I can fix the partition problem without causing further damage. But, it would be nice to have that backup. Thanks for pointing out my error above... I missed the Mini to Mini II transition.
I'm just trying to get the CyberNav working again... not really interested in a latest/greatest upgrade as it did exactly what I wanted very well. I mounted it on the handlebar of my dirtbike with custom maps. Worked great, right up until I downloaded the latest track and left it there attached to my computer... that evening I went to make an Ubuntu USB startup disk... stupid, stupid, stupid...
Then again, my new tablet should arrive today or Tuesday... 10" and, yes, I'm going to mount that on my dirtbike too Thus is the benefit of using cheap Chinese tablets... If I don't fix my little CyberNav, no real tears. It would be nice, and I'm looking at it as a learning opportunity, but if it bricks in the end... such is life, only $100. Even the 10" is still in the disposable price range.
Thanks for confirming that I was doing the PhoenixCard part correctly - that's good to know,
David...

Perhaps it is possible to get a working firmware from Freeway AX
This device looks like a match. Just replace the boot-logo with something you like (if you can stand to read some polish)
Put the firmware files in a folder called 'yfpi08' on the sdcard.
It looks like the firmwares are all android 2.2 - ICS on a 800mhz device is perhaps too much to ask?

I contacted the producer (YF) and they gave me the latest revision of the firmare:
FRF85B.yf.v2.2-104-g1b33231
They also told me that the YFPI08 is now out of production and this will be the last firmware revision.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18965091/YFPI08_yf.v2.2-104.zip
Just unpack the zip in your SD, make sure the "YFPI08" folder is present.
If you don't want to change the start image, remove "logo.bmp".
With this firmware my YFPI08 runs smooth and fast and all seems to work fine.

Yes, I've already grabbed the yfpi08 image (3 versions actually, no idea what's different between them yet) but got the impression they were for the 7" rather than the 5". Also, it could explain why I'm reading conflicting methods for the update: Mini = put img file on sdcard (in folder ??), Mini 2 = PhoenixCard. This Android fragmentation is crazy... so many different versions and methods to deal with each. Still trying to get my head wrapped around that.
> ...if you can stand to read some polish...
Ah... I'm Canadian... Japanese wife, Chinese tablet... we don't care I was a little surprised after the first factory reset and having Android come up entirely in Chinese... took a few minutes to find the language options It's all part of the fun,
David...
More: now YFPI08_yf.v2.2-104.zip from the above clubdx forums looks very interesting. My CyberNav lists 2.2-103-gb456292 as the OS version. An UPGRADE 2.2-103 to 2.2-104. Thanks for the link. Now I have 4 versions of that yfpi08 rom to try.
well, this is looking better.
I just did the system img (left all the others out, for now) and it actually did the update as expected. So, yes, the bootloader can read the sdcard if there's something useful on it.
Sadly, after switching the system back into English, it still can't access the internal sdcard.
So, I did it again with all the the files (nice background image by the way) and that updated the bootloader. With the same result. It appears that reverting to another ROM, factory default or otherwise, does not fix my partition errors. But, the good news is that I now most definitely have a factory ROM to revert to if I need it.
So long as I don't brick the device, I'm good. I can be a little more aggressive on the partition editing... just need to make sure i don't wipe out that bootloader and I should be okay.
I did notice that the other image from the links above has a "force.bin" file included. I also noticed that my second update didn't bother doing the system.img file. I suspect said 'force.bin' file forces this? No google hits on that at all... might try it one day if all else fails.
I think I'll start a new thread on partition editing rather than hijacking this one. At this point, I'd say the thread is solved, thanks to craigsoup, for both for the Mini and Mini-2. Thanks again,
David...

2. For the LYF1-xx we have to correctly root the device using a slightly modified version of superoneclick from
www.manzanavirtual.com/tutorial-rootear-desrootear-tablet-prolink-peru-superoneclick.html
Install the drivers before you try superoneclick, as you can tell this is in spanish use a translator
Now restart the unit, the device will be correctly rooted, and supersuer app installed
It also has been reported that ZhuoDaShi works as well (unroot first... then root)
Update For the A13 LY-F9 see MW-Core post below http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38531971&postcount=9

3. From the market download ES file Explorer, in the setting menu go to root settings and make
sure all boxes are ticked. If superuser app pops up, select yes / allow.
4. Goto the root directory i.e. / then selected the system directory (/system) edit the file “build.prop” to
add the following line at the end of the file
ro.opengles.version=131072Yes only one line to add, Save File, exit ES file Explorer
5. In the tablets settings menu go to manage apps, find “Google Play Store” and “Google Play services”
and select clear dataReboot tablet

It isn't the most important thing, but it would be nice if cifs.ko and md4.ko were available so that NFS exports could be mounted.
Best wishes,
Bob
PS Whoops. There is nothing lacking the ROM, but something a bit slow in me. The mount command needed an "nolock" option for it to work.

Hi !
Just picked up this big phone from Aliexpress and I want to put a custom ROM on it (preferrably Lollipop). I've searched the forums but can not find anyone that is doing anything related to this phone.. The specs are as below:
Processor - Octa-core 1.7 GHz Cortex-A53, Mediatek MT6752
GPU: Mali-T760
RAM: 2 GB
Internal Memory: 8 GB
It seems there are a couple of other models running on this processor (HTC Desire 626, 526G, 820s)...
Anyone working on anything related to this phone that I could try out ?

There's only one stock rom for this model now and I think it's for variant with 1GB RAM. It can be found on n e e d r o m . com
No custom roms yet.

Hi Pavillo, all,

I just received the device yesterday - it came somehow rooted with tons of CN bloatware, while MTK droid tools 2.5.3 was unable to access the root shell to make a backup. After few tweaks I made the su working (reinstate the superuser using the chanfire SuperSU + adbd insecure shell v2.0, but I'm not able to Create scatter file (button greyed out, probably unknown to the tool), what I see on the list is within attached jpg. Backup is I believe incomplete - console log>

I contacted the supplier to provide stock rom for this device, because with mine I'm not sure it wasn't somehow modified.

Thanks Yiminghung!
Edit:
I checked the scatter file against my partinfo and it seems to fit my 2g ram / 8g rom version!
Created a dd backup of my partitions to get the courage to replace the system partition from your dump - and it worked!
However the dump is CN version (no google play, no root, ton of bloatware) so I reverted successfully back to my original version..
I found this on the web, it's in three parts, but I was a bit loathed to fulfill the advert criteria before downloading it, so it's untested. I did message the dev to check it was dual SIM and he answered so it sounds legit. Would be good if someone could download the rom, combine the three parts and post it here?

Hi, imho this is a fake to earn money using the surveys, the whole page looks weird. I cross-checked the CN forum bbs.ydss.cn/forum-lenovo_note8-1.html and there is no lollipop rom, and I guess these guys are in front of the ROW.
Yeah, I was suspicious myself, could definitely be fake but I was very surprised to get a reply from the dev when I emailed him to ask if it would support dual SIM. That said I wasn't brave enough to fill in the ads! I'm just hoping someone can access those downloads without the ads.

Hi, use translate function in google chrome as I did . I managed myself to reply to some of the topics - just a single reply enables the download link- so ultimately got to the download; usually it points somewhere to pan.baidu.com ... but honestly not too much of a use unless we will get a recovery in other than CN language. I've posted the request for cwm also in that forum. However I suspect these ROMs will be CN only, while we need ROW version.

Hi all,
just to share my enthusiasm - I just got my Lenovo A936 (2g RAM/8g ROM) loaded with EN CWM recovery.
Prereq is rooted device (mine came rooted, I just switched the su app with my favorite SuperSU from chainfire) and adb (e.g. adb-setup-1.4.2.exe, could be found on xda forum).
Afterwards I used PhilZ Touch 6 Recovery executable v7 - it requested only to provide boot.img and recovery.img from my device that I created simply by adb & dd command.
After completing the setup automatically by the executable, voilla it rebooted into EN CWM recovery. Very simple!
I can dump my recovery and boot.img that might be of a good use to others.
Credit goes to yuweng!
xPeca
It's the CWM recovery V6.0.5.1 that I port from PhilZ CWM recovery, It's the English version
download link: https://mega.co.nz/#!WMpCSayQ!Gwsrw5Fs2SEkcSNzQWukr9DeiUFIFmSWie9srod72FY
into recovery method: vol up+vol down + power button ,

7. Good luck and enjoy it !
I just flashed the Philz recovery, works great! I used Philz auto installer from his post on the forum, all automatic and worked like a dream. Now going to install his recovery to my other mtk devices just so I have them all the same. Hoping someone will being out a lollipop ROM for the 1gb A936 soon, it can get a but laggy.

Yeah,you heard it right!
The long awaited feature,ability to map keys for games that are originally developed for touchscreen enabled devices are coming to RemixOs.
The chinese version of RemixOs has a new version (2.0.401) dated 27th June 2016,which claims to support keymapping.
You can check the changelog at https://bbs.jide.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=7351
I wanted to give it a try.but the download was stucked due to the low bandwith offered by server,unfortunately.
If you are brave enough to take a early look,or can't wait for the global release. here are the download links.
1) http://pan.baidu.com/s/1bpibhZT
Code: gbku
2) https://yunpan.cn/OcRUtwhPNKenuX
Code: 938d
PS: Those files are hosted in chinese servers,so the bandwith is not super high. You're on your own,and ask google translate for help

There're few bugs that stop Android-x86 6.0 from daily use. For example,Google play services always crash on Intel Gen8+ GPUs,which is not fixed yet.
But the devs at Jide are actively contributing to Android-x86 6.0 and you'll be able to see the results in near future. For instance,the issue of Time being reset in Windows is fixed
in the latest commit, Check the marshmallow-x86 branch at https://github.com/android-x86-mirror
Hmm...seems like a solid release. I will wait for the official announcement and update though. If it fixes my nvidia/wifi/sound issues I might actually start using this

I think there is no remix os 3.0 for PC(x86) :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:
I downloaded and installed it. My impression :
1 Locked DOWN, no more root command line
2 No Play Store option
3 Does include keymapping
4 Stock file manager can no longer read the partition on which Remix OS is installed
5 Maybe a little more quick because of changes to disk partition access
This may be because it is currently for Chinese users, hopefully there will be more flexibility with the release
EDIT 2016/07/01: After solving problems of getting into root command line, was able to deactivate jide app policy and then went on to install nova launcher, etc. Then using help from @HypoTurtle I was able to do systemless root. Everything now operating well. I will continue testing this 2.0.401 over the next few days for stability.
Summary:
1 No longer locked down
2 Play Store is activated
3 keymapping confirmed
4 Solid Explorer can read all disk partitions by using Stickmount
5 So far seems quicker than 2.0.205

Thanks for explaining the experimental settings.
Was able to activate the Play Store
Pardon the noob question: where do I get the si file to replace the stock one?

I used the remixroot.zip from here. I choose to install remix os in read write mode thus I can replaced the su file at system/xbin directly.
You have to follow the method describe in that thread if you install remix os in read only mode

Thanks. I installed Remix on a Windows computer so I cannot use Ubuntu method. Also I used the Remix installation tool so everything is stock install. Guess I will have to wait for a systemless root. @HypoTurtle are you onto this yet? (lol)

If someone can post the ramdisk I'll compare to the previous version but regardless the current systemless root su/ramdisk.img should work fine; unless it's drastically different.

I thought so too. But when I substitute the ramdisk.img I get to the RemixOS splashscreen and never boots further

In that case attach the ramdisk.img to a post here and I'll take a look.

[TECLAST] P20HD (new android 10 tablet w/ 4g phone) : TWRP unavailable => cannot root
Hi everyone,
I've just bought this excellent Android 10 Tablet with 4G phone included (YES!) but I haven't found any TWRP to root it. Any suggestion? Thanks
Most tablet manufacturers, Apple, Samsung & other motherf*ckers don't want to include phone capability in tablets because they want to sell 2 devices instead of just one... Just use a bluetooth headset with this excellent Chinese "big" phablet: it is better for your health to have your phone far from your head...
98% of people using smartphones & tablets DON'T NEED AN EXPENSIVE POWERFUL CPU, it's only for prestige and their EGO that they buy famous brands.
Disable "Google Services" whenever you can, it is nothing else than a NSA plug-in, spyware background tasks that collect information about you to feed NSA Databases.
I have no doubt that this information given to the public will make Google and NSA angry, they may even try to "convince" this forum moderator to remove my post, but U.S. court now says that Mass surveillance program exposed by Snowden is illegal : .https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...-exposed-by-snowden-was-illegal-idUSKBN25T3CK
Anyone who doesn't live in China should better install the Chinese rom version.

Yes, the Chinese version may also contain equivalent spyware features, but think twice :
If you don't live in China and will never go over there, then the information collected is useless and will NOT BE SHARED with NSA or Nine Eyes/Five Eyes countries (the country where you live may use the collected information against you).

Compile TWRP by yourself.
How-to: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943625
TWRP isn't needed to root a tablet's/phone's Android.
Thank you for your reply jwoegerbauer, unfortunately, I'm not good enough to be able to compile it by myself, my technical level is too low.
I can unlock the bootloader and I'd like to root it with Magisk, it needs TWRP, am I wrong??
Thanks again bro
Is there a flashable image available for your device?
If so, you can extract the boot image from this archive using payload dumper (search Google for more info)
1: Now you have the boot image (on your PC), move it to your device - i.e. Downloads
2: Install Magisk Manager on your device.
3: Follow the instructions at this thread on how to use Magisk Manager to patch your transferred boot image - https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/to...1&share_fid=3793&share_type=t&link_source=app
4: Transfer the newly patched image back to your PC.
5: Use Fastboot to reboot your device using the image on your PC - see above thread for how to do this (no need to flash the modified boot image back to your device - you'll actually be booting the device using the patched image on your PC - this ensures that if anything goes wrong, you can just reboot your device).
6: Assuming all has gone to plan, your device is now rooted (temporarily) so you can now install Magisk using Magisk Manager (this will modify the boot image on your device).
7: Disconnect PC and reboot your device normally (i.e. System) - you should now find Magisk is installed when you open Magisk Manager.
Hope this helps

Thanks jmwengineering for your reply. Unfortunately, there's no rom/image yet, I haven't found any.
I hope Teclast will make it available rapidly as this model has a lot buyers now...

I purchased the Chinese version of TECLAST P20HD. Its ID is N6H1. Is yours the same?
The ROM for my device is available in the Chinese official website. I don't know if it's compatible for your device.
I have already successfully unlock its bootloader, but I failed at installing the patched boot image of magisk. After flashing it, the tablet will keep on rebooting while showing the logo. It could be something I've done wrong during the process, I don't know.

To root a phone's Android neither TWRP recovery nor Magisk framework basically is needed at all. Also unlocking phone's bootloader before isn't needed. All you need is to have su binary present in Android OS.

I should get it this week, european version.
I've already had a Teclast T98 (also Tablet/Phone 4G but with old Android 4) and was very happy with it.
I hope that someone will create a TWRP version soon and post the procedure to root it with Magisk...
Thanks for the info!
I confirm I also have a N6H1 with english language no problem.
I have been to Teclast's website but haven't been able to find the ROM.
Where is it? https://www.teclast.com/down.php?s=misc&tid=218

Really,really nice tablet. Looks like you can also perform the same SD Card/SIM tray mod that can be done with some cell phones to make it a true dual sim tablet/phone-not that I recommend doing so,just nice that it seems to be compatible with it:

Try google search for teclast firmware
Teclast Official Firmware Repository - TechTablets
https://techtablets.com/forum/topic/teclast-official-firmware-repository/
They give instructions on how to acess and download from the page/site
This seems to be the actual page.....but it's is in chinese- might have to run the pages it leads you to through google translate......
http://www.teclast.com/tools/pad/pad.php?t=p
Can't do much more at the moment, too tied up with work and other things to go any further right now.
Thanks but I've already searched in Google, I'm not a total n00b.
FYI my post #9 gave a direct link to Teclast website after typing N6H1 at https://www.teclast.com/en/firmware/

Yeah,but that page doesn't actually lead to the N6H1 (chinese?) firmware.
This one does (it's in chinese though and there are some things you have to do in order to download the file which the link to Teclast Official Firmware Repository - TechTablets site explains how to do.
(just type N6H1 in the box like the other page)

I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY UNLOCKED my P20HD following this procedure : https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-32287.html
TWRP is NOT available on the Play Store for the P20HD.
The "TWRP" app available in the Play Store is just an app to select and download a TWRP in the list of "officially compatible devices"....
... and of course, the P20HD is not in the list.

Ok Baidu now gives access to the download page, code is "mzwv", file size 1011.1M but it requires BaiduNetdisk_7.0.3.2.exe to be installed to download the file...
Since everything is in chinese, it is impossible to install this software & understand how to download the image
Can someone create some verified and authentic copies of these firmware images on an easily downloadable repo?
Chinese don't make any effort for non-chinese people apparently...
Thanks!
@vindieu
Would you like me to download it for you?
Thanks @few__ !!
If you could make it available for everyone (non-chinese people) on a public ftp server, that'd be great...
Please make sure the image is the exact copy of the original.
