Hi,
A friend of mine has asked me to take a look at his tablet. All that happens when powering it on is the android logo and nothing else.
It's a chinese import so I'll give what information I can gain from the tablet.
Model Number: P10AN01
10.1" (by the looks of it)
It has the word "DeLUX" written on the back (stylised as I've written it)
It has a HDMI port (plus all the other standard ports)
That's it.. I don't know how to get into recovery (although I've tried holding every combination of buttons I can think of when powering on).
I have a feeling the ROM can only be re-flashed via the SD card but I wouldn't know where to start in looking for the ROM I need.
I am hoping that most of these dodgy imports are generic and there's a pool of ROMs somewhere that people use and one of you lovely people could direct me to
I do find the occasional thread with the model number listed and some ROMs to download but as I'm not confident that it won't be the wrong ROM I have came seeking advice.
Can anyone offer up any advice?
Thanks for reading
Nobody got any pointers or should I just give up on this?
Hi all. FIrst post etc :good:
I have a Cello EM63 tablet which is stuck on the loading screen. I've tried all the reset options (pinhole, wiping data in recovery etc.) At this point ideally I want to reflash the firmware, but I am really struggling to find an update image. The manufacturer was no help at all.
I came across this, which seems useful, but that version of the EM63 by a different manufacturer seems to only have 4gb storage, whereas mine is 8gb.
Does anyone know where I might get hold of the correct ROM for this tablet? Or would risking flashing one of those Envizion ROMs for their version of the EM63 be worth trying?
Thanks!
Hello,
I wish I could explain my problem quickly and clearly, but I lost count on the amount of times I wiped, flashed and reset my Tablet so... I just hope someone comes up with a genius idea, because I'm desperate. I've tried everything.
Today I decided I wanted to try and find a better ROM I could install on my Ainol Tablet, and after doing some research I found out there was a 10.1 version of Cyanogenmod that was apparently quite popular.
I followed a tutorial I found on slatedroid.com (Flashed CM 10.1, Gapps and compatibility file) and only after I found out I just flashed a ROM built for the previous model of my tablet. When I reset it it came up as if it had done a Factory reset (same firmware but everything came up in chinese).
Then I went on and managed to find a tutorial for mine; repeated the process.
Right after doing that I re-read the tutorial (I would love to attach the link but I am a new user and am not allowed to...) and realised I was supposed to update my stock firmware to the latest version before flashing CM on it (apparently so they had the same kernel). Luckily, I had made a backup with TWRP so I went back to it and went looking on my PC for said firmware.
When I managed to find it, I realised the wifi on my tablet was gone. Whenever I switch it on, it goes back off after a few seconds. So no internet.
Then I thought I could just get that update file from my PC and copy it through USB. But that wasn't working either, my laptop will not recognise it whenever I plug it. The tablet won't even recognise a USB flashdrive.
Lastly, I realised there was a miniSD card port so I tried getting the file in through that as well. In this case, the tablet displayed a "preparing SD card" message but nothing happened afterwards...
I'm completely stuck. I have tried several times going back to Factory settings through TWRP, or reloading that backup I made, erasing Dalvik/Cache every single time, but the problems are still there. Everything else seems to be working though...
I did some research and it does look like I flashed a ROM with the wrong kernel so all the drivers are gone... (When the tablet is off and charging it displays a battery that used to stand vertically. Now it comes up horizontally...).
If that was the case, would anyone have any clue on anything I could do to fix it? Any files I could get rid of? Or maybe some secret menu on TWRP I haven't taken into account...?
Any ideas would be extremely appreciated. Please help! :'(
Thanks in advance.
Greetings,
I have a Coby Kyros mid7125 that was given to me and I'm trying to restore/refurbish/upgrade it. It has some REAL problems, not the least of which is no functional OS. I have tried to install several different OS's including: ICS and JB. I am able to get them installed, and booted up. But, no matter which I use, the touchscreen is inevitably non-functional, and USB debugging is not enabled. Therefore, I am unable to do much else with it from that point.
I would like to install Gingerbread 2 . 3 . 3 which it had originally, but am unable to find a copy for this model anywhere.
I have searched MANY places online, including this forum (which has helped me Immensely! Thanks for that) but I'm just not finding what I need. Unfortunately, being as this model is so old, most of the links to what I need are no longer functional.
The tablet IS rooted, and I do have CWM installed, however the stock backup is gone, and there are no other functional backups on it.
Do you have any advice for getting the touch screen to work once it is booted into an OS, or where I could get a Custom or Stock ROM for this model??
I am fairly new to the Android universe, but do have quite a bit of experience with other OS's.
ANY help or links you could provide would be MUCH appreciated!!
Ok,....next problem:
Ok, SO........after MUCH searching, and hair pulling from my scalp,...and after not finding any answers here,....I decided to take a different approach:
I downloaded and flashed the firmware for the Coby mid8125 onto my Coby 7125 and it works just fine. Only one problem....the screen is out of alignment, which tends to create problems using the touch screen. Not a surprise considering the 8125 is an 8'' display while the 7125 is a 7'' display.
Back story: I lost the stock recovery image on the 7125 due to some "experimentation" with trying to upgrade the OS and CyanogenMod, and could not revive my 7125. Could not find any copies of the 7125 firmware or stock image anywhere. So, being as they are closely related, I flashed the 7022 firmware onto it. Worked,.....except the touch screen didn't function at all. Turns out, the touch screen on the 7022 has a Capacitive input while the 7125 has a Resistive input. So, I flashed the 8125 firmware, which also uses a Resistive input, onto the 7125 and regained functionality! (yay!!) Unfortunately, the display itself is offset by about 1/4 in. x/y, and receives the input at different positions depending on which side of the screen you're trying to use. (drag!!)
Now: At present, everything is functional, but it's a real hassle constantly turning the tablet, and tapping in different places to run the thing.
So, my plan (another experiment) is to copy the TS driver from the 8125 firmware and insert it into the 7022 firmware (which also uses a 7'' display) and hope it works.
Problem: I need to know where in the file system, on the 8125 and the 7022, to locate the driver for the touch screen???
If someone could provide me with the file path, I would be grateful, and would definitely post the findings of my "experiment" here for others to reference. I know others have had the problem of losing functionality with the touch screen, and this could turn out to be workaround, if successful.
I would like to thank the Many others here whose posts and links have, indirectly, help me in my first foray into the Android universe. Without your sharing I, for one, would have been completely lost with nothing to show, except a nice paperweight, for my trouble. So,.....Thank You ALL!!!
FIXED IT,......Mostly!!
So, it appears tenacity pays off!
Through my own persistence,research, and experimentation, (and with no help from the various forums I've visited)... I managed to come up with a clean, Stock ROM and Backup of Coby MID7125 and, using CM v6, I have flashed it onto my 7125 and have restored it to full functionality! Everything works. Only one problem remains......
The display is still out of alignment. I have tried various means of realigning it, from re-calibrating it to trying to access the POINTERCAL file to adjust it manually (which I'm still trying to access), all to no avail.
I realize this is an Old tablet, and mostly no supported by, well, anything. I am using this as an exercise in familiarizing myself with the Android system before moving on to a more Updated version and device.
I've had some failures and some victories, but I am learning a lot and making progress in leaps and bounds. Although, it seems as though I'm doing it ALL ALONE!! I get no help or even suggestions from anyone on any of the various forums I've visited, and the research is mind-numbingly tedious at best.
Still,.....this problem with the (resistive) touchscreen alignment is my last hurdle with this restoration project, and I could REALLY use some input from someone who is better acquainted with these systems.
Anyone?? Anyone at all???
hey guys,
i'm having hard time to find out how exactly to flash my old oem tablet and i really dont expect anyone here to search anything about it(i do that...), just to guide me in general please.
i just found this old tablet and thought i could try to use it as a touchscreen-mp3 player connected to my amplifier...
i charged it and powered it but stuck on "android" logo, i tried many key combinations to put it to recovery mode but i just couldnt find it i guess.
then i started searching of how to flash it...
what is visible from outside is "f&u ETB7405" which brings almost nothing(it's just an oem model) so i opened to see inside where i can see one chip "allwinner a13" and "tzx-q8 713B 6".
it has 7" screen.
based on these i finally found a fimware (using PhoenixCard) that boots normally BUT i get no touchscreen or wifi working. i can connect a usb mouse and have access to it.
do i also have to flash any extra firmware/driver for just the touchscreen or wifi?
what is the most important characteristic("A13" or "TZX-Q8...") to concentrate my search for?
why is it so fcn difficult to find a working firmware???
in case anyone else is having the same issues and hopelessly tries to find the firmware for his device and bumps in unanswered posts or dead links, guys just try different "A13" firmware! Although i'm not really sure that it even has to be "A13"!
i was trying to find firmware with the most of my specs on its name like f.e. "A13-TZX-Q8-713B6" but the paradox happened. the most similar firmware names were not good and i tried a lot! instead i finally decided to just search for "A13" firmware and try any of them one by one despite the names. that was it! i have already found a couple!
from here: ww.androidtablets.net/threads/firmware-based-on-allwinner-a13-roms.72449
a13-TJ P860-V7.1-gsl1680-MID-756-V4.2-20130823-test-keys.zip
all works but there is only "english" and "thai" in keyboard languages.
A13_TWD_MID-gslX680-800X480_20130423 test-keys.rar
all works but touch screen "mirrored" sideways!
good luck to you guys!
thanks
