Update
Im a tad bit disappointing no one has any replied as where to look or give any input to my problem some of us are not android gurus and so far i have spent 3 solid days trying to find out as much as possible to solve my problem. Anyhow be assured once i do crack this i shell do a complete guide for this for these boards and list all firmware links ect ect
UPDATE SO FAR
So iv been digging about digging around and yet still nothing on the firmware side of things but i have found the board make model which is
SunChip AD-Z05 V4.1 and the device is EL-1851AIO 18.5" screen
I have checked the site for firmware which has come up blank also the seller site of the device its self no firmware there ether but now i have better leads i might (fingers crossed) find it somewhere. I will keep this post updated as i go
anyone who has any idea's to this feel free to comment or message me.

Hello,
i have the same thing like you. But im not a developer. Do you have any update about links to ROM or something? Many thanks.

Don't know if anyone still cares or is tinkering around with this, but I came into possession of a touchscreen display board with the AD-Z05 SoC ARM board.
For everyone's info, the AD-Z05 is made by SunChip and designed to be used by OEMs for various things. If you've ever tried hunting down info about it like I did, you'll find very little documentation about it besides this board overview:

}
Note the "Update" button, located next to the power jack. This is our key to getting into the recovery environment. I haven't found a consistent method for getting it to work, but what seems to work most of the time is holding down the update button, connecting the power source, pressing the Power On/Off button, then waiting until the default android recovery screen is up (should only take about 10 seconds tops.)
From this point, I'm stumped on what to do. ADB reports that the device is in recovery mode, I can get a basic shell and browse the ROM, even finding some factory test binaries, but that's about it. This wiki deals with the Rockchip CPUs and has some useful utilites, but the RkDevTool reports that my CPU doesn't match whatever ID it's expecting. Trying to reboot into fastboot or this "maskrom" mode freezes the utility. I've tried reaching out to the manufacturer to see if they have any documentation, I'll post back if I find anything.
Edit: Also see the official Rockchip wiki.

Hello:
I'm not a developer in the least bit, but I'm trying to find firmware for AD-X37. I've done some searching and thought this might be helpful for anyone who might understand the information: https://www.oschina.net/informat/linux下go语言开发
【GoRK3288】1.Rockchip RK3288, GO!GO!!GO!!! - OSCHINA - 中文开源技术交流社区
前言: 最近看了看Google的Go语言,发现有点意思,这个开源的项目准备用golang来实现。 其实开发板本身的驱动程序已经实现了各个功能,但是有的时候在使用中有些麻烦,有可能需要修改dts文件重新编译内核才能够使...
www.oschina.net
Also, maybe this information about maskrom mode from https://wiki.t-firefly.com/en/Firefly-RK3288/upgrade_table.html
Focus on: In Windows, When Linux upgrade to the Android5.1, how to enter Maskrom Mode:
Steps are as follows:
In AndroidTool_v2.58, click “Erase Flash”, this step is erase IDB, it can’t erase flash, so it will appear “erase flash failed”;
Reboot, in AndroidTool_v2.35, click “Erase Flash”, when it finish, the board will enter Maskrom Mode;
Click “Upgrade” to start burn the Android5.1 firmware.
Sorry if this is not helpful at all. Please keep us updated.

Thank you for the info, @jimlarson77! Did you happen to see any steps for backing up the flash before erasing?
I did hear back from SunChip:
Sunchip is one of Apple's provider. We are professional manufacturer and designer of LCD digital signage which established in 2012,we have more than 80 engineers focus on Android mainboard's software and hardware R & D, commercial media player/box(support Android and Linux OS), also provide SKD parts for LCD digital signage.

I did not see any steps for backing up the flash before erasing. I attempted to flash firefly firmware(through the complete steps listed in that last link I sent about Maskrom, and everything went perfectly until the firmware was flashed. Now the board I tried it on won't power on(I'm aware now that the firmware was not the correct one).
If you would like to run some tests with a functional or non-functional board, I could let you play around with a few that I have.

Thank you for the offer @jimlarson77. My curiosity is only from an amerature hobbyist perspective; I'm curious if I can get my digital sign working and flashed, but otherwise I will just try to part it out.

Edit: This thread has been moved to General since Android Port has been accomplished. ~TheRomMistress
tutorial originally posted by bojan6
Please read this before start asking questions
1.Android is in testing development.
2.Is not working fully.
3.You can't install Android in your phone.
4.You can run Android in your phone with Haret and see how it look but:
5.There are no working wifi, bluetooth,phone calls, battery, usb conection, ac charger connection and many other things....
6.All drivers and kernel are still under construction.
7.Now you know that Android is not working fully in our phone.
8.If you still want help and test build that is OK.
Now to run Android properly in your phone !
1.Download any of the builds we have around here.
2.Do backup on your sdcard or if you have additional one use this one.
3.Extract the file with android in your sdcard.
4. Check all the files are inside (sdcard/Android/AndroidApps"folder", media"folder",root"folder",clrcad"file",rootfs"fil e",startup"file",system"file",zImage"file",initrd" file")
5. If you want you can take everything from Android folder and pest it in root of the sdcard but you have to change default text (set cmdline"rel_path=Android change to set cmdline"rel_path=" or set cmdline"rel_path=sdcard") tri with one if is not working try with the other one. I thing the best is leave all files and folder in default Android folder and just copy this folder to your sdcard.
6.Check your zImage and Startup is for Toshidroid :OP (TG01).
7.First RUN haret without CLRCAD.
8.It take no more than10 min to run for the first time.
9. If it take more time RESTART the phone by pressing the POWER BUTTON for 10/20 sec it will restart and back to windows.
11.Try to do the same one more time.
12.If it still not booting to Android and you receive any error messages. Check your sdcard if there is space left in it. Check error message if it say that it can find some file or it can't create a data.
13. Delete everything from your sdcard and format it to fat32.
14.Start from the beginning.
15. If it still not booting to Android then check if you have all files and all set how it has to be.
16. Don't forget you can broke your phone. And we are not responsible for any damage you cause to your phone.
17.It is all up to you.
19. If I forget something sorry about just ask there are other memebers who will try to help you if they can.
20. Sorry for my English mistakes. I'm trying to fix them. :OP
Thanks to all people who try their best to make that possible: Markinus, Arash18k,Bally3,Endrix,Nyl,Arnookie and all other.

The android screen (1.5 cupcake) on Tosh TG01 was taken from intomobile.com
There is no android for HD2 or Acer F1/s200 (and these phones have bigger community) so I don't think someone here will run android on TG01 until it comes for one of these two mentioned above...
you are right..
however I have googled and found these.

I am not into programing but it might give some head start to who want to make it happpen..
I don't know how to go about porting android to TG01, but I'm looking into it... don't know if it will go anywhere but what the hell, it's worth a try.

I'm downloading 10.04 release of ubuntu, once that is done, i'll compile the kernels and have a go at making android boot with haret on the TG01, tomorrow is my day off so i'll keep you updated if I get anywhere or not
nice on man, that sounds awesome. I'll be at school :/ I wish I could learn how develop like you guys..... maybe this summer?

Don't know much about Android. But I think Haret is only a bootloader. You still need the Android files to boot.

Yep Haret kills the WinMo kernel to boot another one, i've got the Xperia X10 and Acer Liquid Kernels source code, so i'm going to build them just to see how far it will go and hopefully create a starting point for Android on TG01
Just to keep you updated, i'm not getting anyware for the moment, but i'm not giving up, if anyone has got any info on building a linux kernel for snapdragon please post it
Google Nexus one, acer liquid and many other devices have Snapdragon and Android.
If it's found some info about linux kernel on them, it would be a good starting point, don't you think?
EDIT: I've just google a little and found this:
NEXUS ONE KERNEL POSTED
Cyanogen has developed a web for developing nexus one kernel. So, maybe, you can find something there.
Here you can find a kernel for Nexus One
And here you can find the kernel source for the Acer Liquid

Yep, i've installed the 10.04, and it's pretty cool, on my dell precision m6500, i had a probleme getting the wifi working but other than that it runs like a charm
Has anyone got any idea on how to find the 'RAMADDR' and 'RAMSIZE' for haret ?
these are for HTC diamond witch has 192 mb ram
set RAMSIZE 0x7800000
set RAMADDR 0x10000000
Yeah but it is specific to every phone... so I either somebody already know them, or I need a way to find them..

S7-931w - Failed to update modem - S7-931u

So I'm the owner of the infamous MediaPad 7 Lite [WiFi only] or S7-931w and there is hacking challenge ahead.
As Huawei rarely updates FW for S7-931w and original FW is buggy, I decided to experiment in some way: I put S7-931u FW on S7-931w tablet.
That should work perfectly as both tablets are same by hardware, except that S7-931u have 3G modem.
So after flashing and tablet boot, everything is perfect but there is annoying message on the screen: "Failed to update modem" that will sit on the screen and not go away.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now, I seeking for a way to remove that message. As I'm not very experienced android developer, I have no idea how to remove it. Maybe to remove modem driver? Or some modifications on firmware before flashing?
I would like to stay on this firmware as it's seems to be more stable and faster than one for S7-931w.
Thanks in advance.
Well I'm not sure that removing modem driver is an easy task.. because the firmware of this tablet is a real mess - but you can try.. because you said you are experimenting. That probably includes rooting of the device, and/or maybe even custom ROM-ing
I own S7-931U with SP19 firmware version and it is not stable at all - at least on my tablet
Wifi version that you have has only reached SP01 version as you can see on this link.
But if you really want to experiment (and don't mind translating from russian) do check 4PDA forum.. they also have some stuff for MediaPad 7 Lite tablets.
Good luck.

It's already rooted. But I do not have experience with removing drivers on android, so yes, it will be tricky.
Ohh I see that you are also from Croatia, that explains why we both have MediaPad 7 Lite. This tablet is pure crap, but for basic task can be a bit frustrating because of it's "awesome speed". Maybe it can be less useless with better firmware.
I'll check that Russian stuff, it may help.
EDIT: I checked but I don't see anything useful. I would like to know how to edit Huawei firmware by my self like Russian guy did. I managed to open update.app with 7-zip and check all 3 archives (931U.zip, 932U.zip, 933U.zip) contained in it.
Each archive contains 2 files:
- MOBILE_CONNECT.BIN
- UpdateWizard (No extension) - File seems to be an ELF file determined by header.
I have no idea how I should edit anything of that.
This firmware is become open source but I don't know how to edit it either.
I would appreciate if someone can explain me or provide me some tutorial for such, If I get involved and done something, I'll publish it so others may also enjoy the benefits.
Well most of us got this tablet for an "T-Contract"
I don't have enough experience with customizing ROM-s, so I'm not much of a help, but here are two links which may help you disassemble original ROM.
[GUIDE] How to extract Huawei firmware (update.app)
[TOOL] Huawei Update Extractor [UPDATED: v0.9.8.0]
App on the second link is a believe easier to setup if you are on windows platform.
Btw.. you are probably on your own on this experiment, because I've search for some answers on the subject of this tablet, and got none (even nothing from Huawei!)... That is why a gave up trying.. Only thing I've seen new is open source stuff on Huawei pages.
I guess people (or even worse Huawei) are just not interested to create something better for this tablet.
At least some users on this forum and Freaktab.com, helped with rooting and TWRP custom recovery... I can only thank them for their effort

Yeah "T-Contract", as 80% of Croats, me included.
But you helped me a lot, you bring me things I didn't even known that are exist for this tablet.
If I make some success, I'll post about it.
And yes, Huawei have NO interest for it - They even removed S7-931w support from their site - SHAME.
It's a bad tablet, slow and as you said with messy firmware, that's probable reason why almost nobody works on it, or maybe nobody have enough courage to challenge Huawei MediaPad 7 Lite? Who knows
Some update, I used extractor to extract the firmware, after extraction I extracted system.img and under bin directory found guilty script:
modem_update
The problem is that this script is probably called by another, so how to stop that chain....
I have attached recovery log file from mine S7-931u model using SP19 firmware.
Maybe it can be helpful to you, because it contains some stuff near the end of the file related to modem installation and partitions (?!)
EDIT: I forgot to mention... as I understand (not excatly sure about details!) rild is command/daemon that helps communication between modem device and Android code (I believe there is something about that on Stackoverflow forum).. so maybe this may also be your point of interest.?
As I see by viewing the log you shared, it even creates special "modem" partition.
This maybe even complicates the things, maybe I could change creating modem partition.
As experimenting with Android partitions is never good idea, I need to be extremely careful as there is possibility of bricking device.
Do you maybe know where I can find script which handles installation process?
Sorry I haven't investigate Android very deep so I don't know what is the script in charge of installation procedure.
Maybe if you check init.rc and/or init.<machine_name>.rc scripts/service or maybe even updater_script... maybe you can find some more clues, about what is going on during boot procedure and/or installation.
Okay, I'll look into it when I got some time, and I'll keep updated.
Success!
After a while, I finally managed to get some time and will to work on our poor S7-931w, and I comming with a good news!
I finally managed to remove permanent "Failed to update modem" message.
Message is caused by system application HuaweiInit.apk which I found safe to remove after message appears, as after removal there is no annoying message nor bugs.
Also, now all telephony apps could be removed since S7-931w doesn't have any way to use it.
Now we can have S7-931u firmware on our S7-931w. For me, it seems that u firmware is more responsive.
Using S7-931u firmware also brings back USB Mass storage mode which was removed in latest S7-931w firmware.
However, it's still a lot of thing to done, there is annoying empty(gray) GSM signal icon next to the battery, and we should do something more serious with it like optimizing it.
Later I'll post brief tutorial, and maybe release modded S7-931u rom for S7-931w.

Android on tablet Trekstor Surftab Wintron 7.0

Hi everyone,
i have a Trekstor Surftab Wintron 7.0 which mounts an Intel Atom Z3735G and 1GB ram and runs Windows 10 Home 32bit. it works quite good for just 50€ that i spent to buy it, but i think that it can do more, specially because apps from the Microsoft Store are not so much, and using the tablet without the "tablet mode" is quite difficult because the screen is too small and buttons hard to press.
Standing at the specs I can see it has the same hardware of the Trekstor SurfTab xintron i 7.0, but it comes with Android on it.
What i want to do is to get the image of the internal flash of a Xintron and write it in my Wintron.
Thanks to xblax i have the following partitions img files in different files:
-boot
-bootloader
-fastboot
-oem
-recovery
-system
After many attemps i was able to boot the Ubuntu Live USB and using the DISK application, I formatted the disk according to the partition table always from xblax and i flashed the partitions IMG files.
Anyway now I am stuck because because the bootloadet.img seems to have a 64bit bootloader in it.
The Intel Atom Z3735G processor is 64bit, but I am pretty sure the UEFI is locked to boot only 32 bit systems.
any hint please?
Can anybody help me? I'm not a Linux expert, so I just want to know how to write an IMG partition taken from a device on another device (that is basically the same) and boot it.
I am pretty sure it could boot so i think i just need some basic info

i couldn't find it in Italy it seems to be available only in Germany, and my final objective is to have a dual boot Win10/Android
Have you tried Refind Boot manager?
Not yet, i'll give it a try and let you know
So, i tried the flashdrive IMG but in the boot menu I don't see any choice.
But after a few tries I found that if I rename the bootx64.efi file in bootia32.efi refind finds something

Yep!! I'm waiting for it!
Let's see if it will work!
Finally the Beta came, it looks great but... I am experiencing some hardware issues.
First of all the touchscreen. It works, but seems that it is not calibrated properly, making it impossible to use without a mouse. Than also the audio, Bluetooth, battery monitor and many other things are not working at all
I read that there should be the possibility to calibrate the touchscreen but I didn't find any solution...
Suggestions?
Hello Niddu,
I am also intersted in running android on the wintron 7.
Did yout get success in running the Xintron images on the Wintron, or have you got some other Solution?
Thanks and greetings from Germany.
Hi, unfortunately i had no clue because of my lack of knowledge in Linux.
Anyway I suggest you to spend some time on trying to make RemixOS Beta 32bit working.
I actually don't know how to compile a kernel, but if you can do it you can try to integrate the missing drivers.
With the official release the touch screen is working but is not calibrated properly and that's the main problem because without it you need to connect an external mouse/keyboard without the possibilty to keep the tablet in charge.
Anyway sound, bluetooth, battery management and power and volume keys are not working.
If somebody is able to make it work I'll be glad to help them!!
Now i had Success in running Android x86 4.4 on it.
The Touchscreen is working very well, but the three soft buttons for back home and recent are not working?
Bluetooth, adjust screen lightning and sound are not working
Great! Can you link the release are you using? If someone could explain how to add drivers to an existing android image that could be a good starting point!
I just tested the version that I guess you are using but I have the same result on the touch I had using remix OS.
I'll try to explain you better with images.
Keeping the tablet in portrait mode lets analyse first of all the Y axis.
Clicking on the upper part of the screen it results aligned on the 0 of the y axis.
But if I click in the lower part it not calibrated
Analysing the X, the left side of the screen is not really aligned
While on the right it is almost OK.
Last one is the "windows" key. When I press it, a touch is simulated on the screen in an area that is not covered by the touchscreen
Is there anyone able to guide me in the calibration of the screen?
Hello Niddu,
i used android-x86-4.4-r5 : ....android-x86.org/releases/releasenote-4-4-r5...
It themes that there are different Versions of the Tablet out there.
I have the ST70416-6 / Windows 10 Version.
When i start the Android Live image, the Calibration screen appeares automatically and after Calibration it workes like i saied befor.
I also have a ST70416-6 Win 10, but when i launch the live Image of the same version of your it does not ask me for touch calibration. Can you post me a picture of how this calibration is?
android on wintron 7.0
Hello guys, I also have a ST70416-6, trying to find a way to install android on it. Did u get lucky?
Thanks,

Trekstor Wintron 7 touchscreen driver
Hello everybody,
I had success building a touchscreen driver for the ST70416-6 version. The driver that is used in Android x86 is the gsl-firmware: github.com/onitake/gsl-firmware
I used the original driver from Trekstor (SileadTouch.fw) to build a Linux driver using the firmware tool:
./unscramble SileadTouch.fw firmware.fw
./fwtool -c firmware.fw -m 1680 -w 900 -h 600 -t 5 -f track silead_ts.fw.
After that I pasted the silead_ts.fw in system/lib/firmware in Android x86 that i have installed on my sdcard. Now the Touchscreen works quite good.
The Android x86 version I used is the latest android-x86_64-6.0-rc1.iso.
Unfortunately sound, battery, camera and bluetooth are still not working. The sound chip seems to be a ALC5642 which is still not supported by Linux.
The gyrosensor is working but the axis are inverted so that it is unusable. Has anyone an idea how to swap the axis of the gyro.
Link to firmware: dropbox.com/s/bce8bc6zu3gc0g4/silead_ts.fw?dl=0
Unfortunately I´m not allowed to post a link because I´m a new member , so you have to paste a http www before the two links.
Hello, im back
Sry for the long time, i got my second son and many, many positive trouble with family and so on
Sry nidu for not sharing that screenshots.
I tried Merlins guide to build an own driver and it is working.... thank you very much
I tried it with Android x86 6.0 rc and maybe with a very slow usb drive touch is working but all react very slow, i will try it with android 4.4 and other usb drive tomorrow.

Trojan on Gretel A9 smart phone

Hello, I have been having trouble for months with a Gretel A9 smart phone provided by my employer.
The thing seems to be infected by a Trojan which cannot be removed by Factory Restore, or any virus program I have been able to find. (Malwarebytes will detect and clear it, but it comes back straight away).
Here are the symptoms:
-Horrendous pop-ups advertising games
Such as "Grumpy Gorrilla", "Oh No", "99 Balls", and "Sticky Glue). These pop ups are difficult to remove and require scrolling on the advert to find the X to remove, which often leads to clicking on the pop up itself.
This ended up with the phone being subscribed to "Demon Games", running up a £50 phone bill with the network provider.
-Constant browser pop ups to a website called "Aiboo.cc" which I am sure has something to do with it.
-An app called "Magic" which comes up as a virus on malware bytes, and keeps reappearing on the phone, with a little picture of a blue Octopus.
-Constantly tells me I have a new Whatsapp message, but when clicked on, something called "H5 Games" comes up.
-Lake worth ISD is another dodgy app that keeps appearing.
The phone is running Android 6.0.1
Please, help me if you can. I have tried resetting numerous times, and I've researched everything I have found but there's no information online about any of these things.
If it's provided by your employer than return it to him and refuse to use it until fixed or received new one.
To remove any files from system you need a root access. You have to root your device first but you lose warranty
If I return it, they will only provide me with a tiny 'Alcatel Pixi' phone, which is just awful to use.
I think I may try to Root it, but I have no experience doing this

Please post a screenshot of 'About phone' and also run Anti-virus Dr.Web Light (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drweb&hl=en) and post the results. Feel free to post the results from Malwarebytes as well.

Ok, I will figure out how to get this done and post it tomorrow night (it's late here now and I need to figure out how to do it).
I will also keep a log of what appears on the phone during the day, as I get various messages and pop-ups.
Really do appreciate any help on this, as it has me and my work stumped. It would be a decent phone to use were it not for this terrible virus/trojan.
A quick scan on Malwarebytes came up with this:
2 Malware found
-Android/Trojan.Agent.ASH
(Installed Application - Settings) [I repeatedly get a fake application called Settings]
--------------
-Android/Trojan.Dropper.Agent.CKA
(Installed Application - Magic) [This is the app with the Octopus Icon which I mention earlier]
Tried wiping these off the phone numerous times, both manually and using Malware bytes and other virus apps, but they persistently come back.

Did my own research. A number of phones came pre-installed with the Triada malware/virus, which is a well-known case. Unfortunately, Gretel A9 was one of those.
I downloaded the stock rom 3.04 and 3.02 both are infected and the only solution I see is replacing the lib which is causing this and deleting the .apk that is also causing this (based on what I could tell). However, I need to know specifically which version you are running and also what the result of the Dr. Web scan is (please post a screenshot). We could try to repack the cleaned system.img and then you can flash that. However, there are no guarantees it'll work.
TWRP and a few custom roms are available for your phone + general discussion here: https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=807386.
I have posted a Dropbox link to a screenshot of my About Phone..

Currently running a full scan with Dr Web Lite and it has detected 20 threats so far, that's far more than malware bytes or any other virus scanner I have used.
Once that's done I will post the results

Sounds good! Did some more research, Alberto96 posted this in 2017 (huge thanks for providing both TWRP + the K10 and A9 firmware) https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77545922&postcount=7 and I've succesfully compared the firmware. My thinking here is - replace the clean files from the Oshiyama K10 stock firmware with the infected ones from the Gretel A9. Repack system.img and then you can try flashing the new system.img via SP Flash Tools. Alternatively, flash TWRP and we'll have to figure out how to create a new flashable system.img script.
I'm having a hard time getting it onto one screenshot despite trying to save it as a long shot, but here is some of the Dr Web diagnosis..

Just looked through this thread and I can confirm they were getting the exact same symptoms. Everything they described is what is happening with my phone.

Thanks. If you can pull the full detection list that would be great.
I need to know what some of the detections are associated with, so can you run 'adb shell' and then 'pm list packages –f' like this example:
Then copy the list and post it here as .txt preferably.
Currently decompiling the rest of the 3.04 firmware to see if they've hidden malware in the other partitions as well. If not, we're all set to have you flash a test cleaned test rom if you're up for it.

Sorry about the format, I'm not so tech savvy, I'm sure that's the lot. I'll now start working on the other instructions you gave me (abd)
Still trying to figure out how to use ABD.
I am following the instructions on here:
https://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/
I have download the SDK tools, and unzipped them to a new folder, but I do not see the SDK Manager EXE
I think that it would be easier to flash new rom from the link few posts above - xda site

The problem is, it won't boot. You need to flash the system.img only - but the K10 system.img needs to have the required libs from the A9, e.g. fingerprint, cam libs. Though there's no indication hereof, the K10 may pack malware as well. But like I said, I can repack the K10 system.img with the required A9 files and Huscarl can test it. This can likely be omitted, if we can repack the stock rom with the clean files from the K10 system.img. That's why I need to know what packages are linked to the Dr. Web detections aside from SecurityService and libandroid_runtime.so.
An alternative quick fix: flash TWRP, root the phone, run Dr. Web and let it remove the malware. However, as research indicates, the problem still persists for some users.

Android POS machine H10-1 made by Citaq? Can I reuse it for personal touch tablet?

Hey All
Its been a while since I got to play with anything these days but I recently found one of these POS 10in touchscreen units in the dumpster and it fires up into a menu running android. So I was hoping I could reflash this and use it like a tablet given it's also got a small thermal printer in it, so maybe try and save it from e-waste
I searched online for more details and came across this HERE which is identical to what I have so hoping I can root it and flash it with a clean android?
I would love to repurposed this to use as a touch screen tablet or similar, since it's got a GSM module and can take an SDCard too as I opened it up and took some pictures and I managed to get it in a recovery mode as well - from the PIX its using a rockchip RK3368

I am not sure if the mini usb port is a OTG port to try and use ADB but I have not been able to do much with it and hoping someone can guide me through to possibly a reflash or ways to unlook root and add in another bootloader/rom
I've downloaded the files from citaq website but so far not been successful to do much with it, has anyone played with these and turned them into something more practical for the home?
Here's hoping for some tips - Apology if this is in the wrong section, move as needed :good:

Device actually is running Android 5.1.1. It seems it has only 1GB RAM what is far too little to run a full fledged Android.
As long as you don't replace device's Stock Recovery by TWRP or similar recoveries, after a successful rooting don't install Magisk and/or Xposed Framework, you're on the safe side to play with, IMHO.
As 1st step check whether device is accessable by means of both ADB and Fastboot.

Hey, Thanks for chiming in!
So in order to get ADB and or Fastboot its suggested to enable USB debugging in the device system settings, but I am not sure on how to do this, would it be safe to assume this is already USB debug is already enabled?
Could I back up the original stock recovery
I'm a little green on the whole process hence looking thought I'd ask here, I don't think I even have an OTG cable handy
I will see if I can load ADB on a windows box and try and talk to this unit
Cheers
Kosti
@Kostiz
An OTG-cable isn't needed, because the recovery menu
doesn't give you the opportunity to load something from an USB-device
OK, some success!
I went back and connected a mini USB straight to the PC and ADB driver installed detected the android device.
Ran ADB in windows powershell
So whats the best method to backup the entire ROM, and recovery files in the event I stuff this up?
Do I use just ADB for this or someother tools?
I did try one tool here from the vendors website but stuck as not sure what the Chinese characters mean..
Is the fact that this is only 1G i couldn't run Android at all and needs to be stripped down?
Cheers
Kosti
@Kostiz
Android Oreo Go Edition is a lightweight distribution of Android that runs better than normal Android on devices with <= 1 GB of RAM
How to backup device's Stock ROM is eplained here.
Thanks again mate!
Seem I have to do a lot of reading and thankfully everything is here, just got to spend time to read and have a go!
BTW how do I go about using volume rockers and power button to move around the menu in recovery when there is none but only the two buttons as shown the reset and recovery buttons on the main board?
BTW, the current ROM installed boots into a special menu, all other settings are hidden, would there be a way to enable seeing all the items and when getting the the settings (gear icon) that pops up in the corner, only takes me to the standard wifi menu to choose a wifi, so it seems everything else is hidden, if by enabling these I could potentially not need to do anything other than stop the default application from starting up - if that makes any sense
Could I just get back into a adb shell and try
adb shell
su
pm enable applicationname
I have to read up on rooting first I assume before I do much more, this is getting exciting, LOL :good:

You use Android's HOME button to navigate within the Recovery menu, use POWER button to select option.
Hi, fellas! Please help me with one of these Citaq H10 POS. All we have is bootloop with some custom ROM showing vendor's logo.
Forcing it into recovery gives me some dead android screen with "No command" text.
Please guide me through this challenge, cause I have no other option but to ressurect it somehow.
Good news is that I have another one that is working fine, so we could try cloning it or something. Please help!
Yet I can't attach pics, cause of few posts, but if needed I can PM some.
citaq h10-2
I am also stuck with this machine citaq h10-2 , i did use a wireless kb to move up/down and not the 2 buttons on the motherboard , i can talk with it with ADB but all you can do is put it in sideload to upload new firmware and put it in fastboot but in fastboot you only get a black screen , what I have don is > opened up developer mode but you have no OEM UNLOCK tick box in side so running any bootloader unlock dose not work and i have run them all, if you google this machine for flashing new firmware you only get XDA this forum, unless any body knows another place to get the info from please let us know as i do think this would make a nice tablet with printer, the firmware is 5.1.1 and would love to put 6.0 or above on it but. i did download some firmware and used sideload to install it but it come up with error , i did try and make a backup but cannot do it ?, I think the firmware was from a galaxy s5 , I am not into all this firmware flashing so I am learning as I go along and if I brick it up well it was for free any way as the takeaway was shutting down and he gave it to me so no loss, if any body knows how we can get 6.0 or above on this machine please let us know.
A big thank you to all that can help put android 6.0 or above on this tablet.
Did you guys take a look at the solution here ? It worked for me ! All with a 2k ohm resistor...
Hola, alguien tiene la Rom de este dispositivo?
