I've got an X89 Kindow with Android 4.4 on it, and I was wondering if there was any way to bump it up to something more recent. I thought I'd found an updater, but it turned out to be nothing but an ad-spam app that only seemed to exist to show me advertisements.
Any advice?
Advice is don't use it. It comes with spyware installed. There are some tutorials around to delete the Android partitions and just use the space for Windows. Sorry dude, I have the same tablet.

i have a dopo (double power) d7015, the about tablet says the model is d7018. i've messed it up and didn't make a backup... does anyone have ANY info on these tablets? like if it is a rebranded other model? or any roms i can flash to it? i've tried putting 2 different roms on through the built in recovery, but it fails and says no more space on device.
originally i played with the advanced install of busybox installer, and that started problems... first thing i noticed was the 0 total internal space... i restored to factory settings, but the problem persisted and it wouldn't obtain an ip address, so i input it manually and could use the browser... but it was all pretty moot because of the messed up internal storage. i tried to adb shell into it, and was told that /system/bin/sh didn't exist... i found a binary online and pushed it, then could open a shell...
then i noticed that busybox was still in xbin, and i read in a forum that busybox being in /system/xbin could cause mount issues, and recommended to copy the binary into /system/bin. after that the internal storage showed properly, but wifi wouldn't even turn on.
i've tried reversing the process but can't get wifi to turn on at all... from what i've gathered in forums, most people upon getting into this situation flashed and all was well... but i can't find a stock rom for the tablet, or any other rom that's worked in my efforts...
i guess the main things i had in mind are either a stock rom i can use with the recovery that came on it, or another rom and a little help getting it on there... last flashing experience i really had was with my neo freerunner a while back...
but ANY help would be appreciated greatly!
thank you in advance!
still nothing? gonna try digging around for something again... if i find anything i'll update. i finally got my tablet going, but with pretty regular problems. now it seems like there's bad sectors in either the cache or data partitions because after i get so far into getting all my apps on there (from store) gplay services and account management and all types of other stuff starts force closing constantly... it's pretty maddening. i've had the most luck only installing a bare minimum of apps and only using it for browsing reddit and other small stuff, but before all the trouble i could do so much more!
totally given up on the dopo tablet... if anyone find something please post here!

Wow... Still nothing. ive found a way to build the images for the tablets like these... But I don't even have an x86 arc comp to build it with! Only chrome book and raspberry pis .
Ok, so I'm an amateur Android root hacker and I was trying to install a DL'd Android file (volt) to swap external SD to internal phone staorage. I messed up. Now the tablet will not boot, as it gets stuck in the logo screen. I have tried ALL reset methods including recovery mode. When I try to select recovery mode, it only gives "NO" as as an option to factory reset. I have read online that I may be able to boot Android from an Micro SD card but this is where I get stumped. Can I use ANY 4.2.2 build, or is it device specific? If so, how do i find my build on a generic tablet such as mine? Here is what I can tell you about my tablet. It is a Tagital 9" A23 running 4.2.2. Here is title to the exact tablet on Amazon that may include some useful information. I can;t post the direct link because of my NEWB status.
Tagital® 9" Android 4.2.2 A23 Dual Core Dual Camera Tablet PC Play Store Pre-installed (Enhanced Version of A13)
As you can see, I'm only into the device for $75, but I would not only enjoy a working tablet, but also a solution to the original issue of partioned internal storage being all out of whack (502mb for device storage and then 4.8gb available, partitioned internal storage, not being used).
I apologize in advance if this is not the correct area to post, but I am a newbie. Please help!
Yikes. Sounds like you made a brick. I'd recommend looking for support via the manufacturer web site some have stock Roms for devices. Did you see if anyone had a thread here for that device? Good luck.

Yeah, that's what I was afraid of...I just bought a duplicate tablet today, having it shipped overnight, do you think I can mount a recovery image from the new tablet and install on the first?

just wondering...
i'm kinda stumped.. but if you can get into recovery I believe you may be able to either download a compatible rom several that sound like they would work on your device(search via Google) or maybe backup the new one you just bought and push those file to it(Maybe via adb)/ make a flashable zip and reinstall via sd... speculating ovi cause I don't have that style of tab...
I have this fake china tablet, running android 4.0.3, but I would like to get an android version above 4.2.0, by any means, custom ROMs included, anything.
The tab looks like this: <electroniaychinas.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/new-q88-font-b-atm7013-b-font-have-hdmi-best-cheapest-7-inch-font-b-tablet.jpg>
So far, I managed to find its' firmware: <4shared.com/rar/-PVB60wZba/GS701B_ATM7013_Q8.html>
I found out how to root it, using MTK droid tools and this tutorial, including the files inside it (su, busybox, superuser.apk): <4shared.com/rar/_jWoAVtBce/gs701b-root.html>
My only purpose to this tablet is getting an app named "The World Of Magic" to work on it. @ <play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.com2us.imo.normal.freefull.google.global.android.common&hl=en>
The problem I'm getting with this game(The World Of Magic):
It installs correctly, from both the market and as an APK from the SD card.
The moment I try to run this application, it brings me to an uninstall prompt to this same application, which leaves me the only option to uninstall it.
Sometimes, if I agree to uninstall it, the tablet shows me a booting animation, as if I just turned it on (That could be a low battery issue, though).
Older versions of this application seem to load up, but not the newest, and the servers won't let me log in if I have an old version.
If anybody can only help me address this "uninstall" issue when starting the TWOM app, there won't be any need for looking for any updates for the android. I know, I should have messaged the developers of this game, and I did! Still waiting for a reply from them . I don't expect them to do anything, Com2us is famous for blocking their applications from being ran on computers, but I didn't expect older android versions not to be included in their game development.
Thanks in advance, but I guess I won't get much of a reply, because this device is old as hell. At least, I might have helped if anybody is looking for the firmware or how to root this thing.
Hi, I would be grateful if someone could help me root and install a custom rom on this device. Please refer to the 3 images showing detailed information about my tablet.
Thank you very much for your help.
hey did you ever get this rooted?
Hi guys. I am also very much interested in root for this device. If we manage root on this it will become extremely useful. Please lets keep the thread active. II havent been in this forum for a while now as I didnt have an android device since I sold my Note 5.
I suggest we contact any of the forum members who are advanced in these matters to assist us with the root for Overdyve.
I'm Interested as Well
I'm going to try to dive in and see if I can figure out rooting my Overdryve. Since they don't seem to sell too many of these, I think we'll have to figure out how to do this without a nifty app. If anyone has any thoughts/pointers/useful articles, perhaps they'd share them.

I agree with you 100%. We really need to stick together on this and help each other out noting that these devices are very few. In the event we are unable to root the device is there any other way of enabling Google Play Services without requiring root? If I can get support for the Google services I will be good to go. Currently most of Google apps are not supported. Thankfully Google Maps works as I absolutely needed this to work as the Rand navigation software is not located in my country. I bought this to use away from USA and so far the most disappointing issue is that Rand disabled support for Google apps.
I will read widely and support you where I can.
I bought the Overdryve 7 a few days ago and there is literally NOTHING out there to help Root it, install a custom recovery, or how to install Google Play Services. I have tried rooting it with KingoRoot and King Root but to no avail. I haven't resorted to such generic methods to root anything since Towel root. This is why TWRP is essential to have.
Bump :fingers-crossed:
Edit: Please delete. Wrong thread.
Still nothing new
I have the Overdryve 7, and 8 Pro... hoping that someone out there much smarter than I has been working on this. Eager to make these thing earn their cost back.

overdryve 8 pro, been rooted for a while now, but Id like to get the OTA updates that ive missed over the last year, and i keep hitting a snag on the OTA verifier...
/system/bin/install-recovery.sh has ben modified... sha1 doesnt match...
there was another file too, but when I rooted, SU made a backup of the other file so i just switched it and it passed SHA1 check.... but SU didnt take a copy of this file for back up...
any ideas? ive tried changing it to a .bak but then fails becuase file is missing....
anyone have a stock 8 pro, unrooted ever, that they can turn on just USB debugging and try to copy the file original file out for me thru ADB debug if possible?
Or anyone know the ile contents for that file on Android 5.1.1 build LMY49I/N8_1_0_170516_275
I wanted up load more detailed specs.... I also have the new OTA update zip, like I said it just goes too error tho because the install-recovery.sh file sha1 doesn't match because I have rooted, and SU remove root and factory reset do not return the original file
Oops file is here

Has anyone figured out how to install Google play services and play store. I got as far as getting an early version of Google store to work without crashing but now it says it can't connect to the Google servers. Oh well something's gotta work.

Anyone able too get into Fastboot on this?
I can see the option and select it from the Engineering Menu, but the decice just sits on the RM logo then reboots normally.
There must be a key combo like too enter the Recovery Menu, but I cant figure it out.
Anyone?
Would someone be able to upload the stock launcher, please? I managed to root and build a custom recovery for my TND740, wanted to try it out.
ji have the OD7C was hoping xda had it all sorted out lol
Hi guys,
I got this chineese phone meitu t8 running Nougat and it is a great selfie phone but the thing is it has push notification problem. Whatsapp, messenger and instagram's push notification only works when they are running in the background for a brief time, the OS running is very strict in keeping memory clean and kills apps in background.
So, I have been thinking to maybe root the device and fix it by making those apps into system apps.
I tried kingroot it didn't work. I am thinking to try rootkhp, but is it going to be safe?
Please let me know. This is my first post here hope i am posting this in the right place

Ok so I have found a method but haven't tried.
For those who are looking to root their Meitu
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-root-mt6735-medion-life-p5006-t3713947
And google search "root mt67xx" you will find many methods.
If anyone tries let me know here.
Were you able to achieve root on this device? I was able to use "mtk-su" at least. But haven't tried to install anything afraid of bricking the device. So far I haven't found a way to flash anything on this device.
