Just had a quick look, and after translating the page, I'd say go for the second one
http://www.alza.cz/yarvik-gotab-zetta-9-7-16gb-d329363.htm#popis
It has a faster clock speed (1.2GHz) and also has expandable storage memory. Plus with it being of a name I've never heard of :silly:, I'd be surprised if it'll get many ports or interest from devs, but it also comes with android ICS so it might be very nice to use on a stock kind of setup?
But I'm not educated in Czech tablets So you may want someone else's advice :good:
Good luck buddy! :highfive:
And what about the nexus 7 ?
well there are not czech tablet you can get them worldwide i just linked to czech pages
NEXUS 7 is too small for me and is more expensive.....
But thank you
First of all, to relate the question to the S III, let me just say that samsung-updates.com is where I get info on ROM releases to all samsung android devices, specially the GT-I9300 and GT-I9100.
Anyhow, does anybody know what's going on with them? Their site is returning a HTTP code 500 (internal server error) and they've been offline for several days now.
Yesterday (Sep. 12th) they were online for a few hours, and mentioned that they've been targets of hacking attacks. They wrote they were working with their hosting provider to find out what was going on, only to be back offline a few hours later.
So, does anybody have any "insider's info" on the matter?
If it is indeed hackers who are bringing their site down, my conspiracy theory point in 3 directions:
a) CrApple and their fanboys, green with envy that they can't update their firmware as freely as we can, so they hire people who actually know a bit about computers to bring down samsung-updates.com
b) Samsung itself, because they are getting way too many warranty returns due to dumb noobs who flash a ROM on their phones and end up bricking it.
c) LG, Motorola and HTC fanboys, for the same reasons in (a), but they do it themselves. Their envy is because they don't get firmware updates in the same pace we do.
Well you have answered your own question, so maybe you should try changing thread title to "Anybody want to join in a conspiracy theory debate?"
It went one direction []; down the toilet.
Seriously, does anyone know if the site is coming back?
Does anyone know the maintainer of samsung-updates.com ?
I'd like to know this too. I need to download a stock ROM for my i747 but I can't with this site down, I don't know where else to get it

Because samsung-updates.com is a lot better, simpler, more straightforward than samfirmware.com
Besides, samsung-updates.com's table format is a lot easier to use than samfirmware.com.
Anyhow, the site samsung-updates.com to be ok now. It's been online for 4 days in a row and that's nice. I hope they have solved all their problems, because they do a very useful job for us.
What isn't nice is that there has been absolutely nothing new for the GS3 for several days now. Samsung spoiled us, by releasing update after update several times a week, and now I am hooked on updating my Gaalxy S III (and my S II, for that matter). Too bad the JB launch date is still a few weeks away, because I could really use a fix right now (pun intended!)
It has been down again for a few days... hmmm...
Down again for the past few weeks in December 2019... hmmm...
Ha-ha-ha looks like I'm the only one concerned about this site.

Here's the link: http://bbs.ejiayu.com/thread-397439-1-1.html
Use Google translate. You have to join the site. You have to wait 24 hours. Then you have to click on the link in the first post, it will send you to an empty post for you to make, you make that post (anything you put there is fine), and then you can go back to the first post and download the updated rom. There are two versions of the rom, one for flashing from the card and one for flashing with the cable.
Sorry, I have nowhere to upload it for you, so I can't send you my copies.
I am waiting for my phone to arrive. I got the Etotalk rom, so my hope is that they are using the updated rom version and it will already be fixed.

Are you talking about the G2 or G2S?
Please keep us informed about any improvements with your display problems after updating the rom.

My guess is that he really is talking about the G2S. This is a known problem, and Jiayu immediately issued the updated rom to correct this problem. In addition, the web page says that after installation of the new rom, the user must not touch the screen during the first boot before the unlock slider appears. Here are their words, as translated by Google:
Note: After the upgrade is complete, the first boot, the phone screen did not appear before sliding unlock switch, the phone can not power off (do not pull the battery), the hands can not touch the screen, otherwise it will affect the touch screen problem correction! ! !

BTW, where is the place here in XDA developers that we are supposed to be talking about the Jiayu G2S? I would prefer to move this conversation over there, but I can't find an "official" forum.

Someone started a new thread regarding the screen issues here. You are right we should have a G2S thread to collect all the information in one place together. At the moment everything regarding the GS2 is distributed over the forum.

Yeah, I don't like having to look all over the place. I was posting at least some in the Jiayu G2 thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1736279
Maybe that is the best place to take our conversations? The G2S is very different from the G2, so I don't know if that is right either.
I'm very interested in getting a ClockworkMod Recovery image for this phone. But I don't have the phone yet, so there is little I can do yet.

Yes, I posted in the same thread as well. I feel a little bit lost between the g2 and the g3 related stuff.
Have you ordered a G2S already?
I'am very close to it. The only thing I'am still missing is a decent review of the first batch devices which are sold at the moment and reliable information about the fixing of the jump screen problem. I'am not very keen on getting a G2S and have to realize that the jump screen is based on a hardware problem. I could not read anywhere that the jump screen problem is really sorted out with the last software update. It is only mentioned that it has been improved as far as I understood the posts in the chinese forums.
To build a cwm recovery for the G2S should not be a problem, I reckon.

John

No, I don't think I have any more information than you. I have been looking at the Jiayu forums for information as well. It seems that the "official" Jiayu statement is that the jump screen problem is fixed by the software update: http://bbs.ejiayu.com/thread-395114-1-1.html
It's a bit more comforting to hear that they acknowledge the problem and have (are?) working on it. All of the other problems mentioned in that post are not causing me to worry.
Unfortunately my previous phone broke, so I am forced to wait no longer. So I ordered the phone already. Although it is DHL shipping, I think it might take some time to arrive. I ordered it from Etotalk and had them install their mod rom. I had already asked if it was based on the newest rom and they replied that it was. But I would suggest waiting for a while if you possibly can. There is always some risk when you buy a phone from a lower tier manufacturer and they are using really new technology.
While I wait for my phone, I need to learn how to use the tools for creating a CWM Recovery. I have already created a modified rom from the official download, but I have no phone to install it on. Unfortunately, I don't find a recovery.img file in the rom I downloaded. I am assuming I will need to pull it from the rom on the phone when I get it, but maybe I just don't know where to look for it. Any help anyone has would be appreciated.

There is a great tutorial how to create a recovery mod for the G2S here. As soon as I get a G2S I will build a recovery following that tutorial.
Like you I have read through all the well known forums and not that well known forums to gather all information I could get regarding the mediatek chipset 6577 phones. Now the time has come to make use of it. Difficult to wait any longer.
Btw, I read that DHL express delivers bloody fast, only 4 days for shipping from China to Germany was the best. I hold thumbs that you'll get it as fast as that lucky guy.
Could you please backup the Etotalk rom before you customize it? Most likely I'am going to order mine at mixe and I would like to test the Etotalk rom.

John

I will definitely backup the Etotalk rom before going any further. But I suspect it is going to have very little changed from the stock rom because I only need English and Traditional Chinese. So it might not be localized in a way that can work well for you (depending on what you need).
I also suspect that it is very easy for them to modify the rom. Already they have Jiayu's official update that is pre-rooted or at least has Superuser in the rom (so rooting will be easy). Then they just delete a few useless apps and the rom is done, as long as it is just in English and Chinese. But any user can delete those apps immediately after rooting, so that is not significant either.
Thanks for the link. I will definitely look at that when I have some time later today or tomorrow.
I will also need to work on installing the tools for backing up and flashing roms. On my Huawei U8220, I made many rom mods and distributed them over at MoDaCo. But I think there will at least be some new things to learn when working with this MediaTek phone.
Maybe it will be time to start an "unofficial" Jiayu G2S thread some time soon. I'd prefer having a good title for the thread (like the G2 thread), and someone who will update the first post when important new information (or roms, etc.) happens. This thread is to specific in the title.
I will also have the Jiayu G2S, it is a very nice phone

Wow, that was a thorough review! Thanks for the link.
Nice to hear that there was no problem with the jump screen. Still, I will be careful to do two things on the initial boot:
1. Not install the SD card.
2. Not touch the screen until it is done booting.
I had to laugh though: the "Antutu" testing software got translated to "An Bunny". :laugh: And I know enough Chinese to know why.
My phone will probably ship today. I don't understand why they were having trouble with my address in Chinese characters. :silly:

Regarding the jump screen issue there are two (new) threads in that forum.
As far as I understand it is said that the problem still exists and it (likely) could be a hardware problem.
Hope that is not the case.

PS: Regarding the Chinese-English translation: What is meant by "brush"? Is it "update"?
PPS: Bunny is indeed funny. :laugh:

I believe "brush" = "flash". I should look at the Chinese character to make sure.

It's a big scam, for clue if you follow the download link it ask for completing an offer. You can do it but finally you will have nothing, just malwares and viruses on your computer
This kind of scam is very popular on the web.

If you look at the comments on the bottom of that page you may notice something strange. Pay attention to all of the profile pictures of those people lol most of them are professional portraits in business attire. Not really the target audience of people who root and modify their phones.

Hi,
i bought a Lineagoo T8s phone.
I really like it, it's fast and had a good price. I jus thught i try it to buy directly in China.
I can't see if there is any bloatware, it seems just like a ROM without bloatware.
Anyway i would like o know if there is or if someone is working on a rom for this device?
Previously i used my Samsung S2 to update to Android 7. But the usb connector is defective. Soldering the pins is no longer an option.(i could buy a new connector but...)
THanks for any guidance.

Well, there are a lot of devices here and there, especially in China, that have a lot of alternative brands.
The problem is that often, the Brand doesn't release what we call the Kernel source, with which we can build a ROM, or TWRP (or another recovery).
So I'll advice you to search for those before buying, if you're interested in buying a new phone, knowing that well known brands often provide the kernel source.
You can even base your future phone on what you see on the XDA "Top" devices.

I also had a WIko Jerry in between, Wiko provides the Original ROM, Don't know if that's enough. Never saw i here, but probably because it was a louzy phone and when it was released not so known yet.
Thanks for your answer.
