G Tablet model 320 - G Tablet General

Does anyone have any additional information about the model 320?
Any pictures or other leaked information on it?
Having an extra 512 mb memory chip on it might be important.
One of the reasons a "cruz" cannot be upgraded to a later version of android (it is on android 2.0) is that the newer versions of android wont fit on the "Cruz's" 128 mb ram memory chip.
Will the 1 gig chip on the new G Tablet Model 320 allow it to install the android 2.3 OS and maybe the new Honeycomb version due out next year?
Any word if it will take the place of the Model 300? Is it being held up from distribution to allow time for the older model 300 stock to be sold out?
Edit: how much room on the 512 mb chip does the android 2.2 app use? Or another way of asking is: What is the file size of the android 2.2 OS and what is the file size of the android 2.3 OS?

My understanding is that 1gb version would not run most of the software posted here on xda, so it would be pointless.

Tmk, only a small number of 320's made it to the States, and I only know one XDA user who owns one.
It's basically a v2 Malata device, like the v2 zPads. Because of this. support is questionable because all the devs and modders here have 300's. I know from my zPad contact that the v2 zPads have a completely different boot.img and their newer kernels are not compatible with our device, so it's a double-edged sword. We have no idea it they will even show up in th States in the future, let alone replace the GTab we currently own.

[Official] i-mobile i858 / Landmark L43-W (tn1t1) / General Mobile Touchstone

UPDATE 2011-07-05
Android 2.1 Eclair ROM has been "officially" released for this phone. No working Froyo or Gingerbread ROMs have been seen.
The most recent build is r2599, download here: http://dl.dbank.com/c0awjsvwhj
Rooted, hybrid, and bloat-free mods of the 'official' roms, made by user jboxer can be found at www.androidicecream.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=17
Older builds of the 'official' ROM are available if you want to try them:
2.1 r969 http://bit.ly/aX4nVh
2.1 r1069 http://bit.ly/b3esau
2.1 r1129 (Unoffical, make by user jboxer, thanks!) http://www.mediafire.com/?11t1har8q7d126q
2.1 r1632 http://bit.ly/9PGr5G
2.1 r1863 http://bit.ly/b0Dy6k
2.1 r1991 http://bit.ly/cvENHp
2.1 r2187 http://www.mediafire.com/?h1i6iaxldx935vy
2.1 r2230 http://www.mediafire.com/?cfacb7lrxxnk7es
If your i858 is still running Android 1.6 'Donut' you need to modify the "update-validate-script" in the ROM zip file and change "touchstone" to "cosmos" for the update to work correctly. If you have a version of Android 2.1 'Eclair' on the phone already then you can just apply the update directly.
Rename the download ROM to 'update.zip', copy to your SD card in a folder called /update, power off then power on while holding the MENU key, follow the instructions on-screen.
Live wallpapers were left out because there is no graphics accelerator in this phone and they run VERY slowly.
If you want to try the live wallpapers anyway you can install the following add-on AFTER installing eclair:
http://bit.ly/9qS8mU
Adobe Flash Lite add-on http://bit.ly/9Iomfx - this is a rar archive that contains files (app and lib) that need to be installed to the /system folder.
[Original Post]
On a recent trip to Thailand I picked up the i-mobile i858. This is a rebranded version of the General Mobile Touchstone.
See:
http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/17/general-mobiles-touch-stone-how-can-something-so-wrong-be-so-r/
http://cn.engadget.com/2010/07/05/4-3-android-phone/
And the i-mobile product page at:
http://www.i-mobilephone.com/form/t...aspx?brand_id=10&series_id=17&id=1162&lang=en
So it's a 4.3" WVGA Android phone with an underpowered processor running donut. What do you expect for $300 unlocked and SIM free!
So if there's any questions about this phone please feel free to ask.
If anyone has any idea where the updates for this device might be found please let me know.

I-Mobile claims update coming out soon
I live in Thailand and the i858 was just put on promotion for 9,900 Thai Baht with three months free 3G service (2,000MB). I think I am going to go get one tomorrow. I called I-Mobile customer service in Thailand and they claim the update is in the works and will release soon. They said their service center will update it for me when it is ready. But there is a pretty active Android community in Thailand (albeit in the Thai language) and I am pretty confident those guys will post the update online. Some of them claim they have been given pre-releases from developers and it looks about 90% complete and are told it will be ready soon for release. I think the update will be 2.1.
I got one as well. For this price it's a very good phone imo. Yeah, probably you cannot play 3D games smoothly on it but I don't really know why you should do that with a phone. And as far as I know, there is no other phone that has as many functions (including TV) as this for this price.
I was told in the i-mobile center that the final 2.1 upgrade will be released this month (august) but they could upgrade my unit with the beta or pre-release but I would lose the warranty.
Great news! please post here when you get the update I'm really looking forward to getting eclair or froyo on this device

Hey guys good to know that the processor can minimum 624 mhz and Max. 1000mhz. So one day some one find out how to root we can overclock it

R133 ROM for i858 - Android 1.6
For those of you who bought the devices in Thailand check the rom version in about phone. The first ones sold had rom 107. They are now selling them with rom 133. Here is a file you can download, put on an SD card, and use the recovery method to flash the new rom. Also it looks like the upgrade to 2.1 is going to be by cable at I-Mobile shops only. It appears that they are going to change the bootloader as well as update the phone to 2.1. When I go to do mine, hopefully soon, I will see if the tech will copy the program and files to a usb key for me.

Hey Jboxer if you can do that for us to get rom 2.1 i buy you a beer if you come down to samui
For all people there want buy the device i858 that cost now 8900 baht in i-mobile shop you just bring any old phone with charger to the shop and you get that for 8900 baht
Charger
Can I use any USB charger with the i858 or do I have to use the one that came with the phone? I want to be sure first so I don't damage the device.
sure you can use any USB charger output must be 5Volt and minimum 300ma but better 1000ma than is quick charging.

Will.i.am iAm+ Puls loading another ROM

Hey,
I recently acquired a Will.i.am iAm+ Puls, and want to see if I can load full android on it (it's currently running a forked version of 4.1). It's an awful product, but heck figured it might be fun to try to load full android on it or even android wear and see what I can do. Problem is, it does not look like it has any USB connectivity, so would need some suggestion on how to load a ROM on it otherwise as I'm unfamiliar with how to do it.
If anyone could provide any guidance that would be great
For the curious here's some specs:
1.7-inch PMOLED Display
dual core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon
1GB RAM
16GB of storage
GSM 3G
WiFi
Bluetooth 4.0
GPS
pedometer (not actually sure if it has it.. isn't surfaced in UI)
accelerometer (not actually sure if it has it.. isn't surfaced in UI)
Sorry.. I'm new, but should this have actually been posted in Q&A?

Rooting & Custom ROMming a VFD501 (or Vodafone Smart Turbo 7 in New Zealand)

Now that Google are trying to break this phone I've had only a year I want to mess with it and lock them out whilst still get updates for apps like Minecraft.
I've tried narrowing down which custom ROM I'd need but I can't find a manufacturers codename needed, or even if it's possible to root in the first place. I'd rather not risk bricking it without the proper method as I'd not be able to replace it.
All the various names I CAN find are listed in the title, here are some specs from the official data sheet on it -
1GHz Quad Core.
1Gb RAM.
8Gb Internal Memory.
32Gb External Memory (maximum), installed.
854 x 480 FWVGA (5 inch) Display using 16 million colours.
If anyone CAN find the information I need and knows what method I need to use, PLEASE let me know.
Thanks for reading.

Hi,
It's really unlikely to find a ROM for not popular device, so this unbranded tablet have very little chance to have a custom ROM. Developers usually buy phone they enjoy because of the experience the phone offers, those are usually flagship or at least phones from known brand like Motorola , Google , OnePlus,...
So even if you find the name, I doubt you'll find anything...
Edit #1:
Providing the link from where you bought it would be very helpful to identify the device, please provide it
Hope you still have a good day lol

Hi, I have the same Tablet with the same so called specs but in fact it is not. I can't install many apps because of the low version of android 4.4 api level 19. I have asked for help if it is possible to upgrade or Root so it can accept the new apps.
Can you help in here?
Thanks

No, what you have is a device that is "hacked" together with whatever they could use. This means you will not find anything to make the device function any better. Most importantly, the device has old hardware that wouldn't be able to use newer software even if you did find a way to install something newer.
For future reference, don't waste your money on cheap tablets, you get what you pay for......complete junk. Buy branded tablets only and even then, don't buy the cheap chinese brands.

Ok, sorry for not being that aware about scams. I bought it from here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/10-1-8G-51...hash=item48e58f80b0:m:mApkEvL0mPOieHk9wvI4EVA
And i paid extra 37$ for transportation to my country, so if this you consider it cheap around 117$ as a total payment as i thought it was a good deal.
Now if i am asking for help in XDA because there are many engineers and experienced people who may have the solution for this.
I hope they can read me..

The point I was making is, no one can do anything for or with your device. There are many reasons why I say this, but, I'm not going to list those reasons. Just take my word for it, I've been a member of this website for years and I've seen many unbranded cloned devices that didn't have what they were listed as when they were bought. These devices do not have stock source code available to the public, this means that custom ROMs can not be built for the device because stock source code is required to build them. They also do not have stock firmware available to the public, which means you can't port a ROM or firmware from a similar device because your stock firmware is required to port a ROM or firmware.
On top of that, even if the stock source and stock firmware were available, you wouldn't find anyone to build anything for you unless you donated one of these tablets to them in order to use it to build and test what they build. Also, no developer would have any interest in trying to build anything for this device.
Even if you did find a way of updating the device to something newer, it would be very slow, it would have poor performance, it would be glitchy, buggy and possibly even freeze or randomly reboot.
Like I said, a complete waste of time. Get a better tablet if you want to use anything from XDA.
Just accept it, there is nothing you can do with this tablet to make it better.

Fine i got the message, but browse on ebay and you will see many suppliers are selling such fake Tablets. I have been buying many items from ebay and never have i been scammed as i am now. I thought ebay is a reputable company and does not allow fake sellers. I have reported to ebay this scam hopefully they will react and forbid such suppliers to croock the buyers like me and others. In my opinion and since XDA is known for its qualifications in softwares and hardwares, they should get ready to find solutions for these unbranded tablets since they are increasing in sales and many have fallen into them. It's just my opinion.

Lol, XDA should get ready? You think it is XDA's "responsibility" to offer software for devices like this? Your opinion is incorrect and way off the mark.
You don't understand what XDA is, that isn't how it works here. XDA itself is not who comes up with the software here, this is just the place where it gets posted. The individual members and developers here are the ones that create the software that you find here, then they post it here for others to share and they only build for the devices they personally own. Developers have no interest in owning or building for devices like yours, people with that kind of knowledge and skill do not buy those kinds of devices. This is not an end-user software support forum, this is a DEVELOPMENT forum. Everyone here are just volunteers, it is not a job, the developers here are just members like you and I, the difference is, they are members that have knowledge of how to modify android software and they share what they create here. There is not a team of people here sitting around creating software for every device on the market. This website started out as a "developer only" website where developers could share their works and resources with each other or discuss aspects of development, at some point, they decided to allow the public to have access to the forum. They didn't "have" to do this, they "chose" to do this. This place is about sharing development, not creating solutions for everybody that needs a solution. If you see a cheap off brand device here that has ROMs, it is because a user that owned one could not find anything here and decided to take it upon themselves to learn how to build a ROM for their device, then they shared it here, it is not done by a "developer", it is done by a "member" that chose to learn how to develop for their own device. You would sooner find a solution by following their example than you would by "expecting" XDA to do it for you.
You actually thought you were going to get a tablet with specs like that for less than $100? You can't get a decent tablet with specs like that for $400, much less $100.
Don't buy anything that ships from China on eBay, everything from there is a "knock-off", I mean everything, not just electronics, anyone familiar with eBay knows that and don't buy from AliExpress or Wish either. Don't buy anything that has a Mediatek CPU, the specs listed for your tablet say its CPU is MT6582/MT6797, that is MTxxxx CPU=Mediatek. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. You know the old saying "buyer beware". Take it as a lesson learned.

Apparently you are being ironic and sarcastic in terms of trying to be wise and criticizing me by purchasing this tablet and not knowing who i am and to whom you are talking to. It is not because i am asking for help i need to read this patronizing and insignificant comments of yours. Don't be in your own box, think out of it because this might happen to your friend or relatives.
Now i was writing to members who have the same issues and not to you. So give your philosophical comments to someone else.

No, I was telling you how things actually work around here, because what I posted is how this site functions and what its purpose is. None of it was to be rude, it was to be informative in a matter-of-fact manner.

Developers usually buy phone they enjoy because of the experience the phone offers, those are usually flagship or at least phones from known brand like Motorola , Google , OnePlus,...
So even if you find the name, I doubt you'll find anything...
Edit #1:
Providing the link from where you bought it would be very helpful to identify the device, please provide it
Hope you still have a good day lol

I also have the same tablet. I bought it on Aliexpress.
All properties mentioned in seller's description are fake. as it is android 4.4 not android 9 and ram is 1GB not 8 and rom is 16 or 32 and not 128.

That isn't very helpful because those specs are faked.

First thank you for your replay and can you tell me what will be helpful to get a rom for this tablet?
I have finished reading a thread on XDA with 46 pages continue for one year about another model of same tablet but runs on mt6582. In your opinion is this rom posted in last page of that thread can be matched with my tablet. I did not try.

No, you need to verify exactly which CPU series you have, I wouldn't trust what the software is saying it is. I would open the device to physically look at the CPU to see what series it is. Once you establish which processor you have, then you can try finding a firmware for another device that has the same CPU. But, there is more to it than just having the same CPU, the devices need to have the same screen resolution, the same size internal storage, the same RAM, same camera, etc... If any of the hardware components are different, the firmware probably won't work. To be honest, I really don't think you will find anything to work and if you do find something that somewhat works, you will probably have to make modifications to the firmware to get everything to work like it is supposed to.
To all of you asking/looking for a firmware from another device to use on this one, to put it in perspective, realistically, you all have about a 10% chance of finding something that works. That is a 90%(or more) chance of failing.
My point is, it isn't worth the time or the effort because even if you do find something to flash, it probably won't be exactly correct. There will be features and functions that don't work correctly, the device will probably be glitchy/sluggish and many other probable issues.
This device just is not worth it, in the end, you will have put in a lot of time, effort, headaches and hair-pulling into trying to improve the device only to not be satisfied with the results.

Android > 5.0.2 for Samsung Galaxy Tab A (SM-T357)

I have an old Samsung Galaxy Tab A (specific model in the title), and sadly, T-Mobile/Samsung updated Android up to 5.0.2. It is also a very slow tablet, given its hw.
Does anyone know about any Android/Linux Distro that could run in this tablet? LineageOS?
Device has a 1.2 GHz quad-core CPU and only 1.5 GB RAM. Changing device's Android OS doesn't make it faster run.

I partially agree.
As you know, many manufacturers' Android distros come bloated, so a Vanilla one, with no vendor's "extra services" may help.
There is also the factor that most applications are no longer supported in it due to the Android version. For example, I'm a fan of termux, and I use it extensively in my phone, but the only way to install the latest versions is via F-Droid, and either F-Droid, or its version of termux (I don´t remember which one at this time), don´t work with Android 5.0.2.
I'm just trying to breath a little more life to this old tablet, so I can donate it to anyone that needs it. If I can't I will just throw it away.
