I have made a couple of purchases from this Vender. (ships from Hong Kong vs China...much faster)
The specs here differ from what you said. I have found that researching on forums is your best bet to get specs on Chinese Tabs)

Need help to identify a chinese 7" tablet

Hi,
i would like some help to see if the device i have has any other custom firmware,
i have attached a few pics of the device.
the discription that was provided by the vendor is as following
7" TFT screen, A9 core 1.5ghz, 512 ram ddr3, 8gb internal memory, andoroid 4.0, has GPS, TF card support upto 16gb, VGA front camera.
NO bluethooth,
the model no. assigned by the manufacturer / vendor is ET-6018 , being sold on egmemory.com...
to be honest i knew that the tablet will be slow... but its so slow that even opening a single menu takes ages...
i cant return it as the vendor is being very A**holic...
i was wondering since i cant use it or return it... mite as well flash it with a custom rom.
please help me to identify this tablet's common name and if any custom roms are availabel for such device.
many thanks
Try this link for more information possibly....I've been searching a while on your subject and it's extremely difficult to find an exact "common" name for your device

Some Info found
I managed to get a little further, and i hope the info helps? Im English but based in Aisa, and often have to source hard to find manufacturers. I couldnt read the model number in your last photo, but as it says on the back of the Tablet, it is made by a company called Easy Groups, who specifically manufacture Memory modules. The main website is egmemory.net
In the support section, they have manuals and firmware downloads, but i stopped there because i couldnt read the model number. The link to the support page is...... egmemory.net/download.php?lang=eng (add the 3 ww's in front)
The only ROMs i could see listed however, where Chinese ROMs but i would have thought there would be an English language option somewhere!
I hope this helps?

I also saw those firmware updates on that website and I clicked the one for the et-6018 and it took me to a dead page. The other links for the other models did the same
A little secret...;o)
If you do the non obvious and do a right click, then select open in new tab, it downloads the 'firmware' for the manual it opens a PDF in a new window.
Unfortunately the 'firmware' on offer is just a utility tool for upgrading and is 1MB in size called Phoenix Card and has a handful of DLL's with it. I did a little more digging and picked up hints to follow 2 models, CWM MK802 and CM10
I did find this though, i wonder if this would work, the author states its a slim custom ROM for the A9 but doesnt state its for any particular model...

Made in China?
Those made in Taiwan perhaps??....
Seriously though, these little tablets are quite addictive to play with! When im not at home in the UK, im in Indonesia for most of the year, there is a local market that sells second hand stuff, like a flea market. I often find broken or used tablets for as little as $10 I have about 15 of them now. One i have hacked to the extreme hardware wise, inside i fitted a 4 port hub, a second camera facing forward, a wifi mouse and keyboard dongle, a broadband dongle and a second USB port on the side, maybe i should post this as an instructable? Another i have used the insides as a controller for an amateur radio transmitter.

im looking at ZTE Nubia Z5S (NX503A) got some nice specs for 400$ price tag.
5.0 inches, Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 Quad-core 2.3 GHz Krait 400, 2GB ram, 16GB, 13MP camera, andriod 4.2.2 etc..
i have never used android phone before so im hoping u guys can help me. i did some googling and didnt find any roms or any other modifications usually go with a andriod device.
i would like to know if this is a worth buying since this phone only available in china.

Is this phone sold in country, or are you going to import it from china? Because if not, I would not recommend you a chinese phone. If it is defective you'll have a hard time returning it (if you can at all) etc.
Btw, if you come from iPhone, I strongly recommend you Google-listed devices (assume you live in the US, it would be HTC One, Nexus 5, SGS4) that come with the stock Android UI. They are updated as soon Google pushes out updates, which is closer what you experience on the iPhone.
Since chinese phones except for Huawei ones are rarely supported in XDA (they lack documentation, source etc) I would not recommend you a chinese phone if you want to try out new ROMs.
If you are ready to take the risks there you go. But as a first time Android user, no way I would go with that phone.
My recommendation for you is the Nexus 5. Hope this helps.
i have to import from china. im a symbian user im sorry i forgot to mentioned where i live. im from sri lanka and no play store available. no way to get a nexus 5. even if somehow managed get my hands on a nexus 5 it would costs me around 550-600$.

If it has to be a chinese phone then I suggest you the Xiaomi Mi3. Great User Interface (MIUI), great update support and best hardware for little money. Xiaomi is also highley popular, it is being regarded like Apple in china.
Go straight for Nubia, it has the best specs out there and far away the best price. I just order it btw.

Good question, in deed I just got a Nubia z5s 3 weeks ago.
(I used to be a Moto supporter, but got disappointed by Moto's sales policy - however, CDMA users can hardly have so many choices as others. forget HTC, bad quality.)
Somebody mentioned Xiaomi, I don't think it's a good option. Nubia's hardware spec is almost the same as Xiaomi, but Xiaomi's shipment and sales policy will drive you crazy. You have to attend to a luck draw first, then could have a chance to buy one!
Regarding the experience, herein I only talk about my experience.
1. BATTERY:
From 7am to 10pm, medium use, about 75% is consumed.
2. DISPLAY:
Much better than MOTO X :laugh: , 1080p. Also, the color is not so cold as Samsung.
3. VOICE&MESSAGE:
Fairly clear, however the location of Mic is just under USB port. sometimes your finger could swipe it when picking up.
As CM user, very delighted to see vibrate setup in "settings", SMS also designed with popup
4. CAMERA
I didn't test too much. However, the respond speed is satisfying.
5. SOFTWARE
a. I have to acknowledge that the UI design is lower than my expectation, especially the icons. Styles in default apps and system UI are not actually unique. But most Androider will change the launcher at soonest, am I right? (ps. I really hate Samsung's UI and the screen density!)
b. Furthermore, the system compatibility...there's no surprise, also no fetal bugs.
c. Seemed Nubia team learnt a lot from CM team. They just released source CODE on their website.
d. It can be ROOTED easily.
e. Some local team has ported CWM RECOVERY on it. Nice job!
f. It's said MIUI by local team is on the way. Also, some guy is working on its AOSP now.
6. AUDIO
Sorry but I never play songs via cell phone. Somebody has idea?
7. DESIGNING
I spent almost one week to get familiar with the weight - it's too light
8. NETWORK
GSM/TD/CDMA, not sure if it can be used in Verizon network?
In conclusion, it didn't disappoint me. I'd be delighted to see more improvements or 3rd party's works on ROMs in near future.
Guys, is this phone suitable for the dutch network and.if flashed with multi language you can use dutch language?

And do you have Play Store installed?
im still waiting for my phone to arrive, but i have seen CWM and Rooting on official Nubia forums. everything is in Chinese. if someone can translate and post here.
Google play works just install gapps 4.2.2 ( you need google framework )
For the Chinese forums use google translate thats how it works 4 me !
The kingnubia rom is recommended it got it all in 1 rom !

How do i know what Roms will go on my S7?

Hi guys, I'm looking for a custom rom to put on my mums phone, she bought one and i think its been a chinese import, she keeps getting all sorts of pop ups and stuff self installing itself so want to put a custom rom on it to prevent her getting annoyed with it, I am quite tech savvy with Pc's and other things but phones aren't really anything i mess about with too much, I have jailbroken iphones when it was a lot easier but dont think ive even done a full replacement of the OS, what info do i need to provide you with? and can you recommend a decent rom to use?, i looked on the roms page and there are tons to choose from?
the info in the hardware is here in this picture, if there is any other info i need to provide you with then let me know

Hi
The phone looks good is the international version, install an app like PhoneInfo
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo&hl=en
And will let you know if is original refurbish....
What you want to do , install a unbranded stock rom ?
here is a guide how to flash stock roms ( warranty safe)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3369431
Or a custom rom , for that you need to root and install a custom recovery. warranty will be lost ( knox bit 0 x 1) and you will not be able to use Samsung pay
There are a few good custom roms , almost stock , Superman rom is good , Omega is good , PheniX also good
Stock rom would be fine to be honest as its my mums phone and she isnt exactly a "poweruser", have just installed and ran phoneinfo but its not really giving me any country of origin or manufacture date information, it does say it has root existence and the android build date has numeric as well as chinese characters.

mate that does not look good , seem it is a fake , what the program says under HARDWARE / platform chip , it should say exynos 8890
If not you are stuck , there is no firmware for clones....
From what you wrote above, I think this is a fake S7, made in China with cheap MediaTek CPU instead of Exynos, and have very little amount of RAM. However, if you use software to view Hardware info, it will say Snap Dragon CPU and 4GB RAM (which should be 3.5GB on the real one), they are clever, but not enough...
There are many ways to distinguish between a real and a fake S7, you can watch is on Youtube, some of the most obvious are the fake one is slow and laggy when you do graphics and cpu intensive tasks (such as multitasking like 7 or 8 apps, or play heavy 3D games), and the fingerprint censor on the fake one works with every fingers, not just the one that you set.
Oh, one more thing, the fake S7 will score very poorly on Geekbench and Antutu Benchmark, since it has only 512Mb ram and crap CPU
edit: Nvm
Looks that way guys, says MT6580 under the platform/chip and a ARM mali-400MP, 4GB ram instead of 3.5gb, i did have my suspicions as she only payed £80 for it lol, its been a good phone in all fairness other than the annoying pop-ups, just a shame there isn't any support real support/roms for it

If it only cost her 80 pounds then it's not that bad. I thought she got scammed into paying full price for it.
The refund process can be really lengthy.

Yeah its not that bad, wouldn't have bought it off ebay if she wanted genuine, does anyone know if theres any way to stop the stuff on it self installing and stopping the pop-ups? thats all she really wants tbh, i just thought it would be easier to do a full wipe to a factory rom. tried running stuff like malwarebytes and avast but it come up with nothing, any tips would be appreciated

Hi
Try with apps like Package disabler ( i think there is a free version)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro
Or titanium backup
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup
They allow you to freeze services , apps and bloatware....... you just have to find out which one are popping up
