Just looking for input on the tablet. - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

I have one i bought for grins to play with so I can understand Android better. here are the specs. things i have done is Rooted it, tried Set Cpu but it chokes on it. Just wondering if there is anything i can do to tweak it.. I am just looking to play with it as it was cheap and my fear of bricking is less than if i used my archos 101. Are there any firmwares out with 2.0, 2.1 or even 2.2 that would work on it? Believe me i do not want someone to do the work for me I just want to be pointed in the right direction.
i have read that there are firmwares that will run off the SD card for testing as well so you don't brick the tablet.
I know the 2.2 is BS it's 1.6
Memory = 256
Model = Generic
Firmware Version = Android 2.2
Kernel Version = 2.6.29-00236-g4f8dbbb-dirty
Build Number = WMT2.1.2

anyone have any input?

G Tablet model 320

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.

[Q] MTK Cpus

Can anybody built somenthig for this kind of CPU?
A lot of people we've chinese cell phones with Android and MTK cpu (I've MTK6515), and after rooted it, its impossible to overclock with any Overclocking aplication, or install a Recovery, or install a ROM.
I need your help, because I think we're many with China cell phones and china tablets who are in the same situation.
Thanks for all and your all developing work.
Anybody else?
Yeah , i have the same problem ( star a5000 with mtk6516 platform) . I rooted it with Z4root app and installed setcpu but i cant overclock it . Any ideas ?????
Usually overclocking requires a kernal which has been modified from stock. If you don't have a kernal with OC frequencies added in, then setcpu (or similar app) will not be able to access higher frequencies than the stock ones.
Hope this helps.

Thank you, but is there any option to improve that phone ?? Maybe wait and install custom ROM will help ??

i have an A5000 GBA emu runs great but NES, GBC & SNES emus run like crap, someone knows to solve it? also angry birds looks awful, the procesor isnt so slow at least reading the specs that said it has about 415 mhz, maybe the firmware was the cheap thing...
Me, me, me me too!
Well there is a LOT of people buying from china these days and I am one of them.
The MTK6515 in in my h7000 and Im starting to experiment with it, about to root it and so on, but lets face it this processor REALLY SUCKS bad time.
I belive there is some way to improve performance via OC but really doubt it will be much of a diference as some one said, it really strugles to run angry birds at its lowest resolution.
WE NEED SOME HELP jajaja but Im fairly hapy with my chinese HD7 jajaja
China phone ID500
Yeah!!!!
I also bought a phone with MTK6516 CPU running Android 2.2 then i rooted it by UniversalAndRoot, also installed Busybox and it works great but any mod ROM could be installed neither any OC performed. Also now I see newer phones on the web with same CPU running OS Android 2.3 so.... it's possible an upgrade!!!
The problem is how to do it?!?
Can someone of you skilled guys help us "china-droid" users???
Thanks in advance to everybody will improve this toys

@ianaxelbay:
Are you sure about the mtk6515 I googled the model of yours and always in specs mention about mtk6516.
I have ordered this phone:
http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...M-radio-3-5-Inch-Multi-touch-wholesalers.html
it has mtk 6515 clocked at 1ghz. Has anybody bought something similar to it? I am wondering about performance. Theoriticaly looks great but...
I have also same China QMobile A100 with Android 2.2 and Mtk6516 CPU with 415Mhz. I Really need to overclock it. Anyone can create a CUSTOM KERNEL for these Mtk6516. So that we could overclock our phones and enjoy games and much more. Please help and make this issue important!!
BEST OF LUCK!: good:
Here you guys, just go and get this one http://www.ahappydeal.com/product-124937.html

Kocaso M830W 8" Android tablet geeks.com

I hope this isn't the wrong place to post this so if it is, sorry to the mod who's in charge.
Anyone who's in the market for a decent, inexpensive, intro tablet should check this one out. I got mine at geeks.com a few days ago.
First off, and most importantly, it comes already rooted. One of the first things I did was to install Titanium Backup and Rom Manager. I was a little surprised to see that root was checked in Titanium Backup. Once Rom Manager was installed I easily installed Clockword Mod and was off trying out a few other roms.
The hardware is as follows:
CPU: ARMv7 (VFPv3, NEON) @ 1200MHz
GPU: Mali-400 MP (OpenGL ES 2.0)
Screen: 600x800 capacitive touch screen
Add'l items: microSDHC slot, mini HDMI out, mini USB, front facing camera & mic.
You can see the rest of the specs at geeks.com but for the money it's a pretty good little tablet, IMHO...plus comes rooted so no need to research anything or mess around with adb
If anyone has any questions, give me a shout.

kosaco 8"
I have been seeing a TON of ads about these different models of late all very reasonably priced but almost NO real information about them
for example your post is the 1st time I have seen someoen say its an ARM7 CPU.
That being said, I have been working on a GTAB for over a year so kind of lost touch on the different cpu classifications, how would that stack up against an ARM9 or CortexA10?
I've owned several tablets, everything from an Augen to a Pnandtech to 3 color nooks (still in action) to the GTAB that got run over last week.
So now Im in the market. I really prefer the 10" screens (had a Z180 before the GTAB), but the nook is growing on me.
The only 2 things that most ads seem to differentiate between kosaco models for example is the 730's and 760's seem to be 7" screen your 830 apparently is an 8" screen and then the version of android thats pre installed.
I have seen some w/ 2.2.3 and many w/ ICS (4)
Now that youve had a few more days to play can you give us a real breakdown on what your finding?
have you owbned any other tablets prev?
Thanks
J
any idea on how to get ICS or HC running on this tab? I bought it and it seems like a pretty aewsome budget tab but i was hoping to get a newer version of android running on it.
have you found the makers website?
you mite start there, since they are now selling them on amazon w/ 4 they may have an update
i dont own one yet
their website is a landing page with just an image and I don't really see any support info

Manual and support software right there.
I actually just bout a KOCASO MID-M760 7" Android 4.0 and love it!!!
My only problem is, because there's so little information about it on-line, other than sellers, I can't figure out what to use to root it to save my life.
Which is EXTREMELY frustrating because after I purchased it, I saw that the next model up comes pre-rooted out of the box.
Anybody know how to root this sucker!?
I'd love to drop CM7 on it like I have on my phone.
Thanks in advance to ANYBODY that can point me in the right direction!

Root kocaso m760
Hi, this works. Rooted a m760 no problems
androidtablets.net/forum/ice-cream-sandwich/44223-rooting-kocaso-m760
Can't post link as site admiri won't allow but hope you can work it out by adding the www at the start and HTML at the end of link
Also the m762 firmware on mymidpad.com has been confirmed by kocaso as the compatible firmware for this model, I can't figure out how to put it into recovery though to use the livesuite software. Pressing volume - and the power button 10 times does not work as per similar models!
ROMs for Kosaco M762
I have a Kosaco M762, what ROMs did you flash to your Kocaso??? And where did you find them?
Thanks

[Q] Is it possible for a WinCE MIPS Device to Load up a MIPS Android?

Let's see. I have a Casio E-750, an Old PocketPC which has a 200mhz NEC VR4131 MIPS Processor and has a 32mb of RAM and 32mb of ROM and could load almost any --big-- CF card (I actually tried loading up an 8GB CF card and it worked.) Around the year 2000-2003, I see sites rising up telling that you can actually Boot a Linux in your old PocketPC during those days, People made that possible using a bootloader. CyaCE. It's a boot loader almost similar to GRUB, i think. Though I'm not so sure if it actually erases your ROM and replaces it with the bootloader.
There's an Android System Image for MIPS floating around the Android SDK.
Around Year 2010 (correct me if i'm wrong) one of you guys made HARET and made Booting Android possible to all ARM based Windows Mobile Devices.
I came up with the idea of Using CyaCE (Since it's the only bootloader for MIPS) to use it as a bootloader for this little old thing I have and just put up the Android MIPS System Image on it.
Is it POSSIBLE for such a thing to happen that this Old.Old Thing here Could ever load Android?
Yes, probably the very much older versions that has less demanding hardware requirements, especially memory requirements.
http://www.netmite.com/android/mydroid/development/pdk/docs/system_requirements.html
http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...e-minimum-hardware-specifications-for-android
Your MIPS will probably work with the earlier versions of Android, but I think the performance will suffer, especially if you will be running it off the CF card.
Good luck with your experiment.
Sorry for reviving.
Found the good old files by internet wayback machine sites and all, Across some Japanese Websites back and forth.
After testing some few stuffs on it, Nah it fails at first attempt to launch the bootloader.
This thing aint compatible with the bootloader either way. Can't even ask those old dev's for it either.
Got no choice but to give it up then.
Either way, I got a new phone (HTC Inspire 4G). I've been installing ROM's on it and it's quite performing good. My Cassiopeia's Standing by on my desk these days. xD
Anyway, Thanks for the help.

Well in order to do that we would need the source code of the tablet, which is not available anywhere around for your tablet. I'm sorry to announce that you got scammed like every other people buying cheap chinese tablets. I know the price is quite interesting but you'll always end up losing your money with these sellers. So if you really want a tablet just go for verified brands, and do not buy from aliexpress or marketplaces like that.
