I would like to install 4..2 or better on a 7*tablet that currently has a locked down version of 4.2.2 on it so I must t side load. It hsa a rk3188 rockchip and I have a copy of an updatefie for the locked down Android version on there. With this info can someone point me in the right direction as to what firmware I should download? Do I need to post contents of build prop? Also can custom Rom be made from update file?

What all do you need to know?I can only get so much info from the tablet. I bought it from a pawn shop because it had a cool clear case and looked sturdy (it's for kids) but when I turned it on it had some crazy version of Android on it. The tablet has no name and pawn shop guy didn't know. I saw an update file, peeped in it, saw buildprop,etc. I just want a basic version of Android on it(jellybean I assume since buildprop says version on there is based on 4.2.2.). If i post buildprop is that enough? Or do I need to post the update file also along with board and chip specs?

Hi, I just bought a brand-less China-made Android phone with the words "4G LTE" on its back. It is dual SIM and a portable TV.
I would like to know if there is a better ROM while retaining the 2 features abovementioned?
Looking at the About Phone and Sysinfo, it says that it is a:
Processor: ARMv6-compatible processor rev 7 (v6l)
BogoMIPS: 668.46

What would you advise? Thanks!
check the techknow forum you will have all the china roms

Looking for the same thing, anyway somone could provide a link to techknow china roms? I tried google it brought up several entries. Can't get a bead on it.
h4300, is currently having problems with the screen getting out of sync (i think) starts to scramble and stuff like that.
The power button never worked out of the box, I had edited the key files to get functionality out of it, but I still cant turn it on. When its in the powered off state.
I am thinking this is just a rom issue. Since I am fairly new to the android scene, I cants say for sure.
Certainly, compiling my own rom is an option. Before I even attempt that I have to figure out how to get a recovery option going. I'm not even sure if its possible to get clockworkmod on this phone.
It's just so hard to find info on these mt65xx phones. If anyone has experience with mt65xx china phones, concerning backup, recovery, flashing. Please send me a PM.
What I need to figure out is how to backup the ROM on it, and flash new one. I guess I can live with finding / or compiling my own. However I would like to avoid building my own.
Thank you for you responses.

I want to note, that I would like to just (re)flash the original rom, as opposed flashing a custom one.
I am thinking something got corrupt during their flash process. Talking to china customer support about it isn't yielding any results. They just keep asking me to send it back, and shipping it back costs more then the cost of the actual phone.
If I could just find the correct tools to flash, and back up. It would be a step in the right direction.
Again thank for your responses, helpful or not.
Search google for a chinese htc hd2 clone someone did a port of cyanogen and recovery for it mate. Once i arrive home i will also try to search for the phone again

Hi, may I know:
Where is the "techknow" forum?
Can we have start a "China ROMs" section here on xda?
Thanks!
p/s. I just saw that this H4300 phone has a new 3D ROM!! (really wondering where I can get the ROM now~~)
http://www.dhgate.com/2gb-thunderbo...oid-2/p-ff80808133cfdacc0134131448f7623e.html
well decided to send it back (found a cheaper way) Got the new phone and working great except that the app HP Eprint$biz is not printing my pictures over cell data connection, all automatically print failure....
I dont get how it works on one and not on the other its the same phone. Am I missing something simple???
***EDIT** Ehh whatever went to an older version all is well. I can live with that.
I think I just found a cwm recovery....gotta test
Also another ROM ... will test both by end of week.
***edit sadly I was unable to get the other ROM I found working.....still testing with it***

Have you create a new scatter file for your phone?
The phone is a Hero H4300 using Mediatek chip MT6573. If you look for "H4300 Thunderbolt" on Youtube, you can see that the manufacturer has a new 3D ROM for it. It will be great if we can flash our devices with this new ROM. Thanks for your great job and I am looking forward to a custom ROM for this little wonder, because the stock Bluetooth does NOT work well, and Skype for Android has a problem with it too, apparently.

No I never did create a scatter file for the h4300 with the MT657x3 Flash Tool. I do know it can be done. The process was a little over my head at the time. Being pretty new to the android platform I just wanted a simple solution to do backups and recovery (quick and easy) which is why I was trying so hard to find a CWM recovery for it.
I did manage to get the recovery working using the scatter file that came with the original rom, I just clicked on the recovery file, and browsed to the (CWM Like)recovery and flashed. I got and error when done flashing it (but it works, tested nandroid backup and restore, but thats all I tested) Im not sure if this was the correct procedure....I doubt it was. But backups and recovery worked for me. I dont want to mess around with it too much if that functionality is working.

I am not responsible for any part of the creation of this. I merely translated the sites and found a recovery that worked.
Well I hope that someday we can have custom roms for this phone....
What cheaper way did you find ?

Hello,
i recently bought a smartphone from Ali.
It's a MPIE M15 with MTK6595 (CPU-z is agree). Here's the specs :
Android Version : 5.0.0
Baseband : MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V43, 2014/09/17 10:10
Kernel : 3.4.67 [email protected] #1
Build Number : A100-HYDY 20150627-155331
Custom Build Version : 1435391497
Hardware : mt6595
After test, it's already rooted, i can access to Android Recovery.
The problem is that the installed rom is a Chinese Android version.
i want to install the factory Android Lollipop, but i cant find any version for my phone.
CyanogenMod installation via recovery have a OTA error..
So with my specs, is that possible to run another rom, like the Official Android (5.1?) and how to do it?
Thanks for your answer
Update
I understand that i have to install a custom recovery, but now i have a new problem..
MTK Droid Tools says the hardware is fake in Kernel or Firmware rolleyes not corresponding to the phone..
How to format all the phone, i want the Android Official Firmware on it, how to do that please ?..
OK MTK Droid Tools recognize my phone now. I do the backup for a custom TWRP recovery. if anyone know a link the original image of android .zip, thank you to tell me..
i continue :cyclops:

Please write if you find the program Im interested in purchasing that phone, but don't want to learn chinese
By the way, how that phone looks like in real life? All options works normally?
Hello, after two days working on the phone, i'm almost there.
First, this phone is faking his own components.
It's sold for a MTK6595, in fact it's a MTK6572. Same for Android, it's KitKat, not Lollipop. Not sure about the RAM (maybe 2Go). 1 virus app (AVG). Chinese stuff installed. I bought it 85$ from Ali (i understand now^^). The Camera is sh**, really! (but photo is not a prob for me).
Im not an experimented dev, the phone seems to be block somewhere, it's very hard to launch a custom recovery. I extracted the Stock ROM with MTK Droid Tools.
Finally, I install a custom recovery after a day of search, the Carvil Touchscreen and make it stable for the mPie. Now i want to install a Custom Rom on it, after replace the boot.img from Stock to Port, i have to modify the kernel, i will see..
If i managed a custom rom to get worked, i will post a tuto, if someones are interested
i continue :cyclops:

I found a original custom rom for this on needrom, but the phone still faking his hardware.. The kernel is fake and i don't know what to do now.
It's not a Mpie M15 (fake), it's a Mpie Mp S-168, on KK.
If anybody got scammed with the Mpie M15, i backup my device 10 times, i have a stock rom for

Hello. I also bought the phone. now we have to change the firmware. if you have the opportunity to specify where to get the firmware for this phone?
I have a tablet which can't find the firmware, and trying to develop the mine.
I was reading tutorials and information that find and some well have some questions.
I downloaded a firmware with Android 4.4.2, "installed" and runs good, except that:
Don't works WiFi
Don't works Cameras
Don't have Phone app, i assume that no detect the "3g"
I do not know as they are known the "drivers", are obtained or how are modified.
Upon installation of the firmware, using a computer mechanism, successfully extracted, from the gadget unchanged, with Android 4.4.4, the files:
boot.img
bootloader.img
data.tgz
recovery.img
system.img
system.tgz
Any information that is useful to the case, do not hesitate to ask.
From already thanks and hope, apologize for the lack of appropriate language.
Dude You should first mention the name of your tablet
Like : Samsung TabS etc
Mention Tablet Name so that any one can help you
Sorry!

I Found many information looking "q10s a31s", that says in the board, but can't give with the firmware.
Also:
CPU: Allwinner A31S
RAM: 1 Gb.
WiFi: AP6210
Res.: 1280X800
Cam.: 0.3/2.0 Mp.

I have a Aida64 done with the original firmware running inform too.
Howdy. I got a sweet replacement for my Acer Iconia A500 recently, after 5 yrs it finally bit the bit_bucket in the sky>
Attached a screen shot of system page
MODEL : Prime10ES
processor : UltraOcta-A83
Android : 5.1.1
Firmware : v2.1rc3
Kernel ver : 3.4.39 [email protected]#40
build # : LMY48B.20150813
Anyone have any idea on the following:
a) A custom rom for this system
b) the actual maker of the tablet
c) whether it can simply be rooted?
d) any other assistance (like maybe a forurm??)
This was a tablet purchased at Target for $120.
I ask because at minimum putting this into a forum would have helped me when I searched before buying to see if I could root it.

Not bad, runs much faster then the iconia, but need to still get rid of junkware.
cheers to all and to all a happy New year!
Did you get any help? I got one two with 6.0.1 still can't find a way to root

wasn;t happy about it, but installed a root-program, need to boot up and see what it was, will PM you.
It does root it, but still not great. but at least it's rooted.
Did you ever fine out the root program I have some apps if Im able to root this thing...it came encrypted by default because of Marshmallow update... There a kernel manager that requires root I use it on my note 3 the to speed up the processor that might help
I have an android box that was bought a couple of years ago, probably sometime in 2015. Similar to the picture attached: <sorry, apparently I can't post any links until I have 10 posts on this forum>
The new kodi doesn't work on it anymore, and I can't figure out how to update the firmware from 4.4.2 to 5.1. Did some search on the internet, but some people say it works, some say it doesn't, and the consensus seems to be that no one knows which file works with which m8s+ box.
So I'm considering buying a new box. Want a decent box that's easy to update unlike the one I'm holding. But before that, I thought I'd ask for some help here, if someone can help me through the process (I'm not exactly a techy).
Thanks a lot. And apologies if this is not posted in the write forum.
