Rooting is basically flashing your phone for more customizations, faster speeds, basically making your phone "YOUR PHONE" if that makes sense....lol Im new to this but thats what i get out of it. I rooted my Epic 4g lastnite for the 1st time.

I have been reading a lot of blogs/forums for the Wonder Media WM8650 Tablet ....I know that there are 4-5 diffrrnt tablets like this with the same specs...some have branded names on the back...some don't...some have blue LED lights on boot up and some don't...some also vibrate on boot up and some don't

No guarantees, but try SuperOneClick. You can get it at the 'Easy Root' link in my signature! If it doesn't work, it won't hurt your phone

This is the newest version on uberdroid, i have a older version installed, but i plan on trying this one myself whenever i get my tablet back (I accidentally left it at a cabin by the lake) it looks like they have added alot since the old versions.

Tried this one yesterday...Touchscreen is now very responsive. Haven't tested the tablet thoroughly but 1 negative I noticed is the sound became softer. I had to use a headset to hear the music i was listening to.

2.3? If the sources are available, maybe...
The roms sited on technow are still 2.2, but themed to look like 2.3. I haven't seen anything that indicates gingerbread will run on this as of yet...
Although I'm still trying to get the touchscreen working on it. May be a while I've tried 5 "option" numbers so far...

This may help!
I installed Modroid V011 lite from HERE in a 7" Wondermedia 8650 green led, and it works great, the only issue I have is the battery icon that always shows 100%, but it doesn't bother me

this site has roms i have tried just about them all. on my wm8650 10" green led vibrates at start.
from what i have seen and experienced with thees wm8650 is you need to know led color and if it vibrates at start + screen size. these are easy to flash roms to.

2.2 can upgrade to [email protected]@
so amazing

Yet another iteration of this device

Looks like our friends over in Italy will soon be flooding the site looking to replace the stock ui, and roms.
Hopefully Olivetti will release a higher version of android than 2.2 (crossing fingers for 3.0), but by the video it had that same tnt ui we all hate.
Olivetti Olipad 100 gets unboxed and handled in italiano (video)
Noticed they had flash as they were using youtube, so why dont we have ours yet, its the same tablet isnt it, so if there one has it, why has our one not been released ?
I bought an tablet Olipad 100but its not working very weeland i don`t like the interface. Can anyone indicate me with a few links on how to root and what custom rom it`s working on my tablet ?

There you go good luck!
The Olipad might need a sub-forum - it's not 100% the same as a GTAB. Its more like a zPad T2.

If you notice on the video is seem to have a SIM slot on the bottom. Having Data (maybe cellular) ability would allow it to be Google certified, I guess.

The application installs and starts but no movies can be played. Not sure which features DO work. It looks awesome though!
Just tried it and it works. Open my queue and played a movie. Finally...
Gets further than any other netflix release but just a black screen when playing. I'm sure it's not far off. DX liberty. 5

Well, I'm sure tegra2 devices won't be too far behind. All of the devices that are supported have similar processors. The tegra2 is much better, but different. I'm sure netflix is just making sure that there is a quality user experience before releasing it.

It plays on the TF101? Strange. It told me it's not compatible with my device... Maybe it's the firewall at work that keeps messing it up? But others also reported it's only a black screen. Why the differences? I'm rooted and running PRIME! 1.2
Who if the author? I'm looking through the market and i see netflix but they don't seem real... Where is the official application

The way I understand is this is a hardware issue. When they initially announced it for Android, they claimed to only be working with Qualcomm in order to prevent piracy of content. I haven't checked to see if they've expanded beyond that just yet though...so this could be entirely invalid and be a mere software thing
If this is the same app that was leaked off an LG phone a couple of monts ago, the problem is DRM. The app i looking for a DRM file that's not located on the device.

NEW Android ICS 5" Tablet/Portable console, the Droid X360

Found on Wololo's blog today, http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...tendo-Sony-PS1-game-G-sensor-wholesalers.html
Its an tablet/gaming console for 110$ that has amazing specs and actual hardware gaming controlls, dual cameras and all of that android goodiness !
Sure its a chinese ripoff with design taken from the PS Vita and name taken from the XBox360
What do you guys think? I mean it's an android device with great specs for the prize and is made for portable gaming! I'm seriously considering skipping the nexus 7 and buying this instead (want the nexus 7 just because its a nexus device )
oh yeah. its even pre-rooted when you get it

Took the plunge. Just ordered. I'll let you know once it arrives.
sweet! be sure to report back on such as build quality and how well it went when ordering from aliexpress, when i bought something from there once it took about 2 weeks to get it :/
I ordered one as well, the ordering process was easy and they have really quick customer service. Now I just gotta wait for it to show up lol
I ordered mine from Willgoo and I highly recommend them. Excellent customer service and delivered to my door in 4 business days. As for the actual device, initial impressions aren't great. This video review from qbertaddict1 just about sums it up. However I'm still quietly confident that with a bit of work, this can be a great device. Working on figuring out whether the control issue is software, hardware or a combination of both. This things been on my desk in a million pieces all day. More to come...
Droid is a Verizon trademark. Just Saying
Sent from my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 4G LTE
I just received mine today (from http://www.wholesaleonepiece.com/dr...lwinner-a10-android-40-ics-8g-hdmi_p4536.html, shipped from China via DHL). this is actually kind of cool. Definitely KiRF - it even came preloaded with a number of ROMs for each of the emulators, which is cool. Also came with come pictures of some random Chinese guy who must have been testing the camera for QC purposes (front and rear cameras both work great). Emulators run pretty well.
are the reviews true that this is worthless for playing games because the controls don't work correctly?
Here's a 4-part review of the system by Wololo: http://wololo.net/2012/08/07/droid-x360-review/
I just got mine this morning. The controls seem to be working fine for me. The analog sticks are a bit stiff but its not that bad. Other than that there is nothing wrong with it.
My SanDisk Ultra 64GB MicroSDXC card works like a champ in my Droid X360. Video playback performance is surprisingly good, as are the stereo speakers. Some of my ABXY buttons rotated(!) after a lot of use, but it was fairly easy to tear it apart and fix.
I read the review by wololo and it seems to be a decent device and an exellent product for being a chinese knockoff and i bet that if more ppl start buying these, we'll see that a talented dev fixes most of the issues, as most of em were software related, atleast I got that impression from wololo
Video Review
Rest assured, a very untalented developer (myself lol) is on the case. I've been developing a script (eventually will be a rom) specifically for this device. Check out the video review here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6G4Ouq7Yj0
Anyone who's interested, the script currently lives here:
http://boards.dingoonity.org/androi...cript-various-tweaks-fixes/msg46443/#msg46443
Just got mine and after spending a few days with the device i gotta say i do like it alot. its replaced my psp (selling) as my portable emulator machine but its definitely got its quirks. Some Emus i kept and some i replaced with market versions. HDMI works awesome! it won't recognize my wired 360 controller using the OTG cable adapter though. if we had a clockworkmod and could flash CM9 i think it would be a pretty solid device. Since they already have CM9 out for the Allwinner A10 CPUs would there be alot more work in porting it over to the DX360???
Crucible, is there anyway to backup my current rom setup now with livesuite?
I know you said (and i saw in the video) your DX360 runs perfectly at 1200mhz (600min), mine almost instantly reboots at anything over 1157mhz(600min), i've tried setCPU and no frills CPU. i've tried different governors and no dice. oh well no use crying over 53mhz just thought i'd let you know.
i obviously have zero developer skills but um i'm down to do whatever i can to help.

Unfortunatly, there is currently no way to use CWM on this device due to the fact that the physical controls are not mapped directly to use the menus within CWM. Yes there has been a lot of work done to port CM9 to Allwinner 10 however I would need to create a custom rom to flash with livesuit rather than the standard method of installing via CWM (for the reason stated above). It's something I plan to look into at some stage.

Yeah cheaper CPUs tend to vary pretty significantly from chip to chip. Its worth keeping in mind when using any cheaper device.

Best thing you could do then is try out my script and report back with any bugs. However be aware that you will need to wipe and restore your device as part of the process.
Hi Crucible,
thank you for your efforts!
I'm using your mod and found a strange thing.
In some games that use the accelerometer in landscape mode (Asfalt 5, Labirinth ) the axes are switched so that up is left, right is down and so on.
Before the superscript Asfalt was playing correctly if I remember well so I think there is something to be set to adjust the accelerometer.
Do you know how to fix this?

I have never used no frills cpu, but I would assume it works the same as setcpu in that it doesn't modify hardware, therefore after a hard reset or firmware flash, the device should revert back to normal. Are you sure you flashed firmware correctly?

Hi,
I have a zoostorm 3305 that I want to get an external 3g dongle working on. After googling I believe i need to root it first, but I'm new to rooting, and not sure what software/drivers i need and where to get them. I would love some help if you have any on offer.
Cheers

how good are these ?
speed in general
Speed of keyboard popping up when in chrome ?
viewing angles (I totally hate poor viewing angles)
updates
I am more than happy with the speed. Keyboard delay pop-up can sometimes be slow.(its usually when emails are being synced). I improved the touchscreen response by using an app to recalibrate it. I think its hindered by the supplied screen protector.
The only thing I can't do is mobile 3g internet. I think I need to root.
I'm. Awaiting I bit of help from the guru's on this forum.

I don't think they are bad. I don't really watch TV or movies on it. It doesn't seem any worse than my Samsung so phone.
Not sure if this helps you much. I would recommend one if you don't have the finances for the Samsung Tablets or the ipads.

sounds good
I did have the Gemini JoyTab 9.7 Duo
I RMA'd it cause as soon as you tilted it slightly right the whole right side washed out
it was so bad that even flat direct ahead you could see the start of the right side polarize wash out with what must be only a few degrees off centre
fine all 3 others ways, I though mine my have been faulty till I went in to a staples and checked their display model, exact same issue.

I sent you a PM via YouTube (Sorry), couldn't post on here for some reason but sorted now.
I have never rooted Android (very new to it) and can't find anything solid about rooting Zoostorm Playtab 10" Tablet. I really don't want to brick it.
I was wondering if you may be able to help me as it sounds like you have rooted the Playtab successfully?
Do you have any links to or name of the guide / firmware you used for the root?
Has the root improved the overall performance of you Zoostorm Playtab as mine can often freeze or delay mid use with the stock firmware?
Cheers mate.

I'm new to Tablets so not sure how useful this can be because i havn't used many others but...
speed in general is quite good however it seemed to run faster when it was new and "fresh" but now having since installed more apps, it seems to temporarily freeze mid-use e.g. going through settings tabs, launching apps etc. I often get a "not responding" message and choice to wait or quit. Waiting seems to work but as this is happening more and more, it's a concern and hence why i'm looking to root.
There is sometimes a 1 or 2 sec delay with keyboard popping up (not sure in Chrome, i'm talking general use). Its not a problem for me.
Viewing angles are reasonable to me but you can see it wash out when looking from the sides but I tend to look at it straight on anyway.
To be honest you get what you pay for (currently £114-£120 on Amazon UK / eBuyer) and it's not bad at all, especially if I can figure this freeze issue.
Hope this helps.

I still haven't managed it. Anyone?
Please let me know if you have any luck with it.
Cheers.
i managed to get CWM on it, but there was no ROMs for it, so i flashed another ROM for another tablet which uses the same internals.... guess what... i bricked it lol

Not sure if you sorted it but these tablets are pretty unbrickable as are most RK3066 based tablets, I've done more wipes & reflashes on this tablet than I care to remember.
You can try to flash the original ROM from here - http://downloads.zoostorm.com/drivers/android/PlayTab/
I did manage to flash a build of CyanogenMod 10 based on another RK3066 tablet on this tablet but it wasn't really what you would call stable, it had screen rotation bugs, random reboots plus Wifi wasn't working at all & as I'm not a developer I soon reverted back to stock, for the most part the tablet runs pretty well with it's stock ROM, 3G works well with the PPP Widget app etc.
It was either this one - http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/39750-romgenerickmod-jb41cwmzip-for-pipo-u1max-m11/
Or this one - http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/41777-romcyanogen-10-for-rk3066-wip/
I'm just glad it has a working CWM Recovery & is easy to root

I'm really digging mine too. Most times when opening Dolphin browser or other browsers it will hang for 5-8 secs sometimes. You guys get that? only think that pees me off really.
If we could get it a tad snappier, would be great too!
How do I get flash on this thing?
I've also got the freezing issue occasionally, not sure what causes that.
My main issue at the moment is I can't use "OpenVPN for Android". It claims it can't access /dev/tun so it doesn't work (ticking the box to fix this in CM doesn't work as it's not rooted). Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Freezing is caused by software trying to access root imho. Avoid software that needs root access.

make sure you view hidden updates in the os update manager and even if it finds some keep doing it as for some reason myself and loads of others never got notified of updates. The device however since doing them has had no lockups and runs much better
Is there a way to root this awesome thing? any news?

Hi. Could you tell me what version you are currently at so I can check I have the latest updates? I too would really like root. Mainly to get Autorun manager working and fully remove some stock apps.

Hmm. Well that's the version I have. I still have the issue where the wireless stops working - even though the status is convinced it isn't! I was hoping there was an update I didn't have that would fix it!

Have you made sure the router is facing the direction that your devices are located? firmware update the router? even though other devices may work fine they could have much bigger antennas that compensate better.. does it happen anywhere else?

The direction cannot have anything to do with it. Routers transmit in a bubble 360 degrees around themselves, although some spots may have less signal the tablet has never dropped below 4 bars when the issue has happened and it can connect at the full 150mb most of the time. I have a very high quality router that has no issues with range/transmit power/direction and has the latest firmware update available to it. It will even work outside the house to some distance. The issue with the wireless dropping but not appearing happens at different times and at different locations in my house - even when a metre in front of the router. I've tried changing the channel of the router and going through the settings to see if I can find a reason for it not working. I have not had this issue with any of the other wiireless devices I have including several that also have run android 4.3. I'm using WPA2, but I refuse to turn this off. It has been around much longer than android and should not be the source of the issue. Turning the wifi off and on again on the tablet fixes the issue, it's not the router. The issue to has been documented with this tablet on a few different locations around the net so I'm not along.
No news?
