I suggest you load barsuk_CWMRecovery first, its down in the 2nd post..and do the usual wipes that you should do before flashing a rom..
Just a quick note, hopefully will save others some time too..
I think if you just went ahead and flashed the zip from the sdcard..
and now got 'android' loading with blinking cursor and no further..
For the hell of it, I did the same and got the same result..
The download is not a flash-able zip straight from the sdcard..
read further down for instructions
Then I went ahead and used the USB method..

No drama.. flashed and working fine.. just no camera at the moment.. I might play with some of the uboot's to see if it makes a difference.. but for now if you want your pad back.. I suggest go the USB route..
if you need a cable.. I use the same cable that comes with the usb cooling fans,
that power the cooling boards that people use under laptops.. Make sure you load the drivers or your computer will not recognize the pad.
Follow SmaRkieS thread and you should be fine..
If you cant burn the main android image using USB method.
You can try the MicroSD card method, but this is only applicable if your tablet will display the right uboot versions under the InfoTMIC start up logo.
@dyfren What does file zSYS.img?
I would say this is recovery.. I flashed it into this section..
hope this helps..
Will play over the weekend with it..
but at this stage running real smooth..

i had a go following the guide and it was fine until i got to flashing the actual Android image, (number 19 in the Guide). PC does its bit, then tablet comes up with "flashing/updating linux" (first bit tablet does) or something like that but the progress bar always stays empty, left it for 10-15 mins and still hadnt moved. tried the version in the guide and the version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1067746
also tried SD card method, comes up with "Updating image hRamdisk" and a dead progress bar.
Which version of Android did you use at step 19?
Thanks for your help so far, seems to be getting there

Yes.. I recommend it.. makes it feel just that bit more snappy..
Once I get time this weekend will try the root methods..then load in the V6 scripts and see how it goes..
sent from yet another MikG HTC Evo
which u-boot are you using?
mines still getting stuck at "Updating image linux-2.6.32.9"
MS
mine is Uboot - V 0.6.1.2(587)
Try the usual.. plug unplug and reboot computer..
as IUW can be a bit painful..
anybody test this FW ? i wanna try that new 4325 .
rooting
Working root using universal androot 1.6.2beta5
@hunterx: 4325 is working very fast. IT won't shutdown when in standby but drains battery faster.
Someone can explain how to modify the firmware to support the 3G _Barsuk_ as he had done?
Thanks for the new ROM, just installed USB method, works fine.
Generaly looks very "snappy" for a Pad with only 256mb of RAM.
Camera "force closes"; Youtube works fine, and Wifi also.
I'll keep posting as long as i play with it.
Sheers
anyone got USB1 or USB2 readable?
when I plug them in I am getting "preparing memory device" then "memory device ready for remove"
To me, this is saying that it see's it.. but for some reason is calling to unmount it straight away..
I would say it is fixable as we had a similar problem on other Roms.. its just setting up the right command..
I have loaded a mix of drivers in to the system/lib/modules...but no success..
Then tried to use terminal but not getting access in to the root..
I kinda need to learn a few more commands in terminal..
(Back to DOS days..)
is there a cheat sheet around for the basic commands?
was playing with the aps2sd.. got the sdcard formatted with a sd2ext
But its a no go at the moment.. as even with TB backup
This Rom is not mounting into it..
As said before, I can't even get script manager to load up so can't load V6 scripts..
Maybe someone will have better luck then me..

question about the flash
Last time I flashed is a while ago so dont know if im doing things right.
So ive got a few questions before I will flash
On startup my pad shows 0.6.1.2. (587) at the right bottom
So can I skip the uboot part of the SMarkies guide?
The folder of 4325 contains more files than mentioned in the guide if i'm correct I only have to use : Kernal, user, system and ramdisk? Please confirm?
Do i have to use ramdisk in 4325 folder or the one mentioned in the Smarkies guide?
Your advice please have to use my pad on christmastrip for my kids so I cant risk to brick it
It's not a problem with this Rom, I also faced the same with previous versions and stock Rom, any of you guys face accelerometer axels inverted when playing games like Raging Thunder or Labyrinth? When bending down turns right and bending up turns left.
Strange, it happens with all games and still can’t find a solution.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Try this patched lib.
View attachment libreference_ril.Universal.zip
Is new solution for 3g. It is much easier. Who want may create update.zip for CWM.
Just replace original lib and set permissions to 644 (owner root).
EDIT
Some patched binaries and libs: View attachment patched_binaries.zip
Include wpa_supplicant with ad-hoc (not tested), vold with ntfs support (need to load kernel module first), ril libs with disabled check for modem model (for gsm only, not for cdma).

Flash all the files as per no:18 of the guide.. but use the ramdisk that comes with this package - dont use sMarkies at this stage - I flashed it to see if any difference but it only was for reading of the USBports.. the one with this package is stable enough
Your advice please have to use my pad on christmastrip for my kids so I cant risk to brick it

If you follow the guide, you should be right.
as usually people only brick on the U-boot flashing.
just take your time.
make sure you got the right files setup in IUW before you boot the pad..
then...boot-connect-flash...
best rom so far 4325
I am posting from this right now.
problems:
Wifi not starting on boot
Rotation/accelo messed up. Calibration makes it worse
Cell standby - fixed by renaming phone.apk
Market included but is missing skype and others
Camera working with 612 587 uboot
Anyone have advice on overclocking?
Thanks for the rom it is bad-ass.

This guide is for:
SuperPad / Flytouch2 / WWE10 Tablets
Make sure you've got the right device.
- Infotmic 10.2" Flytouch2 SuperPAD
- It has 256MB RAM
- It has 2GB Internal Storage
- Android OS 2.1
- Have 2 MicroSD Card Slots
- 1024x600 Screen Resolution
- Infotmic X210 Processor
This ROM is NOT for you if your device is SuperPad 2 / Flytouch 3
- Infotmic 10.2" Flytouch2 SuperPAD
- It has 512MB RAM
- It has 4GB Internal Storage
- Android OS 2.2
- Have 1 MicroSD Card Slots
- 1024x600 Screen Resolution
- Infotmic X220 Processor
-------------------------------------------
Warning: Follow these steps. All of them. If you do, it will work. If you misread or miss a step or skip a step because you are hurrying through the process, it WILL brick your tablet. Flashing is a relatively simple process but it requires patience. If you don't have the time to read all of the directions and follow them, YOU DO NOT HAVE TIME TO FLASH, and stick with your old firmware.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT THIS ROM HAS CAUSED. FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK! SINCE THERE ARE SO MANY CLONES OF THIS TABLET, DON'T EXPECT IT WILL WORK PERFECTLY.
-------------------------------------------
Note: I'm not so good in English and grammar, so bear with me. The images is not so clear co'z im using webcam for fast capture and focusing.
If I made mistakes, corrections are welcome.

This guide is for Windows XP, I'm windows7 user before but I downgrade because I want to use my other old softwares for flashing. If you get the idea you can do this also on windows7.
------------------------------
NOTE:
- For windows7 user Run As Administrator the IUW application.
- 64bit Operating System may not work with IUW application.
------------------------------
NOTE: If your tablet showing version 6.1.5 (559[or higher]) or 0.6.1.2(587) Then you can skip some part of the guide. Scroll down directly to the "Alternative Solution" using MicroSD burning. You still need to download the Android 2.2 Froyo Main Firmware.
------------------------------
:: Preparing the Male to Male USB Cable :: (if you have one skip this)
Ok let's start, what you need is a male to male USB cable, if you don't have one you can make your own male to male cable.
Tools
- 2 USB Cable
- Scissor or Cutter
- Electrical Tape or anything to cover the exposed wire
- Solder Lead (Optional)
- Soldering Iron (Optional)
1. Cut each USB to the nearest tip of the female, to make your USB cable longer.
2. Cut each end of the USB to expose the wires and copper wires.
3. Now you can connect each end of the USB, and twist each wires, you can solder it if you like.
4. Now you can tape each wires, and tape all the wires.
This is the finish product.
:: Preparation for Files and Flashing Procedures ::
*Note: Please PM me if there are missing links.

Download Firmware V2852
Download Uboot - V 0.6.1.2(587) working camera
Download Main Android 2.2 Froyo ROM with Flash 10.1
Download New Ramdisk image to change the path of save files to SDCard1

- then reboot.
Remove all microSD so that it will not start burning if you have firmware on your microSD.
Visit this link how to clean the data for your tablet.
------------------------------------------------------------
:: Let's Start ::
1. Make a Folder on your desktop for fast track of your files, I named it Froyo 2.2 and save all your downloaded files here.
2. Download IUW Flashing tool, and save it inside the folder of your desktop.
3. After download, unpack it inside the folder.
NOTE: Your tablet should be full charged, and connect the charger while flashing, just to make sure it will not drain much power on your tablet. Don't forget also to remove all your MicroSD cards from the tablet.
4. Since your done making your USB Cable, your tablet should be off and plug the other end USB to the PC and plug the other end on your tablet USB Port between the headphone jack and SDCard Slot 1.
5. Open the IUW application, select Link USB on the left side. And on the Link information the DV (driver) is greyed, because it's not detecting the tablet with driver.
6. Power up the tablet with this combination Power + Menu button for few seconds until you see the message on your tablet "Communicating with PC..."
7. A New Hardware notification will pop up on your PC Screen.
(you have 2 minutes to setup this or the tablet will boot normally)
Select Advance, Next.
Browse the driver from your desktop inside the folder "otg_driver"
Then it will install the driver.
The flasher will turn to green.
:: FLASHING V2852 ::
This rom will only run on tablets which display a version number in the bottom-right "Infotmic" screen when first turned on.. If yours doesn't display a number there, you will need to flash firmware v2852 first.
8. 'Choose a wrapped image' press the "..." button Select the IUS file "WWE10B_Android_393477-v9full.ius"
9. Click 'burn' to flash the tablet.
This picture is flashing the tablet.
10. After burning finishes, plug out the USB cable and press Reset, then restart the device.
:: Flashing UBOOT ::
11. Open UIW application, and connect your tablet USB to PC.
12. Select "Link USB" on "USB Mode:" select "Expert Mode" Uncheck all except "UO".
13. Browse the "u-boot-nand.bin" the one with working camera.
14. After flashing this is the result.
15. Your screen with start to flicker, it will start to initialize.
16. I will take time to load up, until you are in display calibration.
:: Flashing IMAGES ::
17. Power off your tablet, and prepare again the UIW to flash the main android 2.2 firmware.
18. Click Link USB, and select Expert burn.
NOTE: Use the other Ramdisk.img fix you download, not from the flash10.1-android2.2 folder.
19. Power up the tablet with this combination Power + Menu button for few seconds until you see the message on your tablet "Communicating with PC...", if the Dv is green your ready and click the burn button.
20. I will take time to load up, until you are in display calibration and your Done!
:: Alternative Solution ::
If you cant burn the main android image using USB method. You can try the MicroSD card method, but this is only applicable if your tablet will display the version under the InfoTMIC start up logo.
Lets make a bootable MicroSD, to convert the file size to 700~705MB, you need a MicroSD at least 1GB.
Download WinHex with MicroSD Clone Image.
1. Open your WinHex
2. Click Tools->Disk Tools->Clone Disk->
3. On Source Raw Image: click the file button.
locate the "aben.start sector" file, click open.
4. On Destination Medium: click the drive button.
locate the Physical Media of your card reader/MicroSD, ok.
5. Fill in the Start Sector with 0 (zero).
6. Click OK, and WinHex pop up will appear, click OK and it will start cloning the image file to your MicroSD.
7. A notepad will pop up that you are done cloning the image, close and press OK on the pop up message.
8. Close WinHex, and safely remove the card reader/MicroSD.
9. Plug the card reader/MicroSD again, and do a quick format.
10. If you successfully formated the MicroSD to 700~705MB then create an "android" folder, and copy all the main image files on the folder. And your Done! :: If you fail there are some other reason, some card reader is not working properly, try to find another card reader, if your phone has MicroSD Slot and able to communicate and serve as card reader, you can use this also.
- ramdisk (use the other ramdisk you download)
- system
- uImage
- userdata
some optional or skipped file.
- u-boot-nand (android v2.2)
- zSYS (Flytouch Official Image 3245)
This is what's inside the MicroSD on android folder.
12. After copying the files plug the MicroSD at the top most/Slot 1 between the 2 USB port.
13. And Power On your Tablet, and it will start Flashing just like here on the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47kf4-Vbba8#t=3
You can also use this MicroSD to downgrade back to 3245 firmware.
Thank you.
Don't forget to click the Thank You button

I made some mistakes on my post, please post some corrections and suggestions are welcome also.
Thank u for your instructions. Its the first time I manually try to flash my pad so I had to flash to 2852 rom first and it does but when i restart and check my version build it is still on build 1561 (flashing with usb cable).

Can you see the version under the InfoTMIC start up logo?
If you can see it then you are ready to update using MicroSD method.
@smarkies
no there is no version number
first time I connected to pc it said found new hardware but no driver. There I selected the otg driver in the package.
Burntool does connect and goes up from 0 to 100 procent (very quick about 7 secs.) when i burn but when i check im still on my previous build.
After that I tried to update to other firmware using update.zip on winhexed sd card. This did work so now I am on 1623 build.
after that I tried again using burntool but still didnt work out.
In the folder containing the 2852 rom there are also two folders
0.6.1.2_1.4.587_OV2655 and
0.6.1.5_1.4.587_GT2005
both contain uboot and uboot nand files is there something I have to do with them before I can flash?
Any advice?
Other thing I noticed: in recovery menu there is a line saying:
e:can't open / cache / recovery / command
It didnt stop me from update with update zip but could it be the reason burntool isnt working for me?

dont touch any file inside the folder of 0.6.1.2_1.4.587_OV2655 and 0.6.1.5_1.4.587_GT2005.
Try to burn the UO first, u-boot-nand.bin the one with working camera, if not try this another u-boot-nand.
Then burn the Main Image Android Rom.
Thanks for the quick repy to be sure I wont Brick my Pad
for the uo file I use Uboot - V 0.6.1.2(587) or uboot - 0.6.1.5 (587)
and for the ROM files I only use files from the 20110416-v1001 folder?
If so I will burn right away

I abused my pad flashing many times, and still it is alive, It will brick if your USB cable is poorly made, or overpowered that will fry the motherboard of your tablet, just like what happen to other people.
the safest way to flash is microSD, but it is tricky with this froyo update that's why I risk on flashing using USB.
V 0.6.1.2(587) this one has working camera. But you can try both uboot to display the version under the InfoTMIC logo. But I use V 0.6.1.2(587) coz I want the camera to work fine.
Yes the files inside the 20110416-v1001 folder except for the u-boot-nand inside.
If the USB flashing doesnt work you can try the alternative, using the microSD.
Thank u very very much worked like a chime.
camera and wifi are working I used uo V 0.6.1.2(587)
will play with it tonight to see what else it can do now

This is my screen now.
with new virtual keyboard.
I also try swapper2, they say it can improve the performance. This is my Terminal Emulator.
IUW does not work with 64 bit
Please add in the OP that some on other forum sites have confirmed that IUW does NOT work with any 64 bit operating system.
I will link to reference if I come across it again...
For Development USB debugging options for Z4Root, you may also want to link to my post HERE.
quick tip for windows 7 users, picture 6 will not happen, at least it didn't for me, you need to navigate to devices and printers, find the unknown device, and manually install the otg driver
Works as advertised.
I bricked my tab first, but got it up and running again with your step by step guide. Many thanks!
I followed your instruction for SD card and it worked perfectly. I now have the 3925 version on my Superpad and it seems to be working well. Definite improvement on Angry Birds(which I play way too much) and Home Run Battle 3D. WiFI works fine, don't know about GPS or camera as I don't really use them, but I will check just for curiosity sake Seems to be faster and I have had no random lockups that I had with the v5 I had on previously. I will report back as I use it. Thanks for all the great work!

Yes, that's why I made it with Windows XP, and we are aware that 64bit OS is so choosy in terms of software compatibility.
About the USB Debugging, I already made a guide after the Flashing/Burning guide.

Yes, It is self understanding, there is a note above I use windows XP, but the idea is still there.
If you like to contribute for a guide in windows 7 is welcomed.

[Real DEV][ROM][Port][Updated: 19-Aug-2011]GB MIUI for Milestone2 All-in-one update.zip Thanks to r2beta0 !
Now dangpzanco has set up a project base on MIUI/CM7 on github, anyone who interst in it can contact with him or come here !.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have any problem in using CM7/MIUI, before question, you may take a look at this thread.
Im not a DEV, so any tutorial and help is very welcomed. If someone can develop for it, that would be very thankful !
Any defy CM7 based/cooked/moded ROM include MIUI can use this method to boot.
Thanks to dangpzanco and r2beta0 for their great effort. And walter79 for the great idea.
Known compatible kernels:
It seems only 2.6.32.9-********[email protected]**lnxdroid**#* series kernels are supported.
2.2.2-CH include 2.10.0 / 2.6.0 / 2.5.0
2.2.1-CH 1.10.0 / 0.24.0
Known incompatible kernels:
2.3.4-CH leak
2.2.2-UK/DE,AT,CH/Argentina/HongKong/Italy
2.2.1-Mexico
2.2-Brazil/France/UK/Australia
Unknown kernels:
2.2.2-France
2.2.1-Argentina
2.2-Argentina/DE, AT, CH
This is my nandroid backup with some fix but not all, you could choose one or not.
[Recommend!]1. Based on MIUI 1.8.12 moded by Wajk, download: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1RF2A3JC
2. Based on a cooked CM7 ROM(thanks to VIPFXY): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NOWVXJAK
3. Based on cm7-110813-2132-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip http://www.megaupload.com/?d=17RERZSM
Patch for CM7/MIUI ( It should work on all defy CM7/MIUI based/cooked/moded ROM ):
This patch fix the following:
1.GSM problem, you may still need to use baseband switcher to change your baseband (If you still have no signal, take a look at this,theoretically it 100% works! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182050 )
Thanks to i7ovehope and dangpzanco
2.Keyboard mapping issue ( except ALT-LOCK, however you can double press ALT instead ) Thanks to 19900828xy
3.fix CWM issues related to /data Thanks to r2beta0
4.When you are charing, you will have your LED turn yellow to tell you, instead of nothing (Charger light still not work)
5. Gravity-sensor/light-sensor are working again Thanks to walter79 and dangpzanco
6. GPS should works
7. compass should works
And the patch does NOT include the following fix, you will need to do it yourself:
[Both CM7 and MIUI]0. Keyboard backlight fix ( Thanks to r2beta0 for fixing. Thanks to nanox_06 from grupoandroid.com. Thanks to layoroa and Motodoido and julianlatasa for telling me ):
Make sure you have apply fix_for_cm7_miui.zip from my attachment ! AND, if you have tried the earlier method (replacing framework-res.apk ), you SHOULD restore the original apk before trying this method !
[CM7]open setting>CM setting>Displayer Setting>(on)Automatic brightness>Advance mode>(on) custom>Edit other levels...
[MIUI]open setting>Displayer Setting>(on)Automatic brightness>Advance mode>(on) custom>Edit other levels...
[Wajk/r2beta0`s MIUI]r2beta0 has uploaded a moded framework-res.apk in #203, you can download it from there and replace the one under /system/framework/ . Don`t forget to set the permission to rw-r--r--. Reboot and Done !
then you will see a mass of squares. Find keyboard row and change the first 2 value from 0 to 255. Save setting. OK, done! Pull out your keyboard and you will find backlight work again.(Be sure you are in dark environment)
Tips: After turning off automatic brightness, your backlight will still work.

1. camera upside down ( Thanks to walter79 )
comment the line:
ro.media.capture.flip=horizontalandvertical
in /system/build.prop, make sure it is
#ro.media.capture.flip=horizontalandvertical
2. The camera noise after system booting, which exist in MIUI moded by Wajk
freeze talk.apk under /system/app
if you still need to use gtalk, try to install it from apk (not test if this will bring back the noise )
3. Stock soft-keyboard too small
Use 3rd-party keyboard app to replace it
4. Phone version shows MB525
Edit the line:
ro.product.model=MB525
in /system/build.prop to
ro.product.model=A953 //or anything you want
5. The default baseband of my nandroid backup is CH2.6.0/2.5.0
If you have no signal, please use baseband switcher to change to a suitable one or take a look at this (theoretically 100% works ) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182050
6. If you think your flash light is a little dim compared to before. (Thanks to walter79 and below is what he said )
Be careful with that. Chinese pepole killed it with fixed-sbf for Europe Defy and in past europe people killed led with china fixed-sbf. It is related to devtree. But if your flashlight works more than 2x then you can edit your build.prop and del this:
- ro.media.capture.flashIntensity=41
- ro.media.capture.torchIntensity=25
7. SD card can NOT be mounted in recovery
In recovery, open advance, select start adbd and then kill adbd. Go back to try, and you should find your sd card has been mounted correctly. Next time if the issue appears again, just re-do it again.
8. If you have USB connection problem. Thanks to r2beta0
[MIUI] Please go to #211 for framework-res.apk. Replace the one under /system/framework/ with it.
[CM7] This is the manual solution r2beta0 post in #213
You must download apk_manager and use it to decompile framework-res.apk. Then you edit bools.xml that is inside res/values folder. The variable you must change is called config_enableUsbModeSelection, it is a user friendly name. Change from false to true. Then you use apk_manager to recompile it but don't sign. Set compression to zero.
The known issues which can NOT be solved till now:
1.Video hardware decoding is dead mostly, only .mp4 survival (need someone to fix that soon!)
[DEV] I upload these 2 patch which is used to port rmvb/mkv HW Decoding to froyo. It should help with porting HW to CM7/MIUI.

2.ALT-LOCK not working ( double press ALT instead )
3.USB mass storage mode issue ( except MIUI moded by Wajk )
You will find that you can NOT mount your SD card to PC.
Softwate Solution[Recommend]: Install Protocol-X Dual Mount SD Widget, you can download it from Android Market.
Manual Solution: Every time you connect to PC. Make sure connection manager appears in your notification bar, if not, enable/disable USB debug. Once it shows, first choose NONE, and then choose USB mass storage. By all this, you will see your SD card mounted in PC.
4. Charger light still not work
Seems lights.jordan.so under /system/lib/hw is related to it in some way. I replace it with the one from new leaked GB, then the LED became the charger light
Tutorial:
1. reboot to CWM and then restore nandroid backup (if you want to flash defy_cm7/miui.zip, make sure your CWM is 3.0+)
2. enable bootloader mode, flash fixed sbf via RSD ( fixed sbf is in firmware.7z )
3. Its recommend to make double wipes in stock recovery
4. reboot
5. CM7/Miui running.

Gsm radio not working is expected, need custom fixes for cm7.
Just try to fix the led/lights
Good lord, this week is beeing the best for the milestone 2 community! Thanks for your efforts guys!

Have you tried all the baseband fixes we have? chinese fix, defy baseband changer, milestone 2 baseband app...
Anyway, if none of them work, maybe baseband needs to be adapted to cm7.

The biggest porblem: I cannot connect my SD card to PC !
Maybe you can push the files via ADB to your SDCard/Internal memory?
U should get a microSD usb reader. I have one, maybe I could test stuff out for u.
Or you can use a sd card reader
Lets wait for experienced people, I think sd is not working just because it behaves differently than defy storage, it wont be hard to fix it.
I have no minisdcard reader and now time here is 0:30 am, so it`s impossible to buy one.

Im on Gingerbread at the moment, do i need to go back to froyo before flashing?
PLEASE BE ADVISED: THE AUTHOR OF THIS POST NO LONGER PROVIDES SUPPORT FOR THIS THREAD. HOWEVER YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOMED TO CONTINUE USING THE FILES AND METHODS AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION. GOOD LUCK!!
INTRO: For all those searching the internet trying to find answers as to how to gain root on your Nextbook8 Premium and also gain access to the wonderful android market from which we were greatly deprived (as is the case with many low-priced tablets these days), the wait is over thanks to a certain someone who goes by the name of DEVMONKEY. Of course I take absolutely NO CREDIT for this and only took the liberty to re-write it thus adding a little more detail to the process. Enjoy!!!
DISCLAIMER***I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS PARTICULAR ROM WITH MY N8 WHEN I HAD IT BUT AS THE PROCEDURE TO FLASH IS STILL THE SAME ALL SHOULD GO WELL. HOWEVER, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT MAY OR MAY NOT HAPPEN IF YOU USE THIS AND DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE. PLEASE FOLLOW ALL STEPS CAREFULLY***
[HOW TO] Root and install Market on your Nextbook8 Premium
UPDATE: This is post has been updated with a new rom to replace old one. Method of flashing is still the same so no worries. All those who want to upgrade to this rom from the one I previously posted in this guide when I first wrote it can just repeat the steps over again with the new rom package.
This rom is based on Samhain's release: SamDroid v1.13
Modifications (mostly GUI / cosmetic tweaks):
1.) cifs.ko / slow-work.ko / nls_utf8.ko are in /system/lib/modules and can be loaded using Mount Manager app from the market. This will let you mount CIFS/SMB shares to the device.
2.) Honeycomb-like launcher and updated GUI icons. (you can change it to any Launcher you want)
A couple of things to note once you have installed the rom:
- It starts up in Italian, so open Android settings "Impostazioni" and go to the "Lingua e tastiera" setting, and change the "Seleziona lingua" to your preffered language.
- I've put a few wallpapers in /system/media that you can set full screen by going into Live Wallpapers and using the "Multipicture Live Wallpaper" set them to the screen.
- There are a few things (widgets) on the homescreen that don't work after initial boot, just remove them and add back whatever you want to the homescreen.
- Sleep of death issues seem to be fixed, and the camera works (Camera app works, but Skype and Fring don't work yet...).
- You can also grab Adobe Flash 11 from the market and it'll work correctly.
- This release boots MUCH faster, and is even more responsive than before.
- There is a cell standby issue that drains the battery more in theory so if you feel like that is happening with you just delete the Phone.apk and TelephonyProvider.apk from /system/app. You can use ADB or you can use Root Explorer to do so. You will likely have to force a reboot because you'll start getting repetitive force closes once you do so, but it won't hurt anything. Once you reboot, all is well.
VERY IMPORTANT: After installing custom roms that also flash a custom recovery your N8 may reboot into the custom recovery. If this happens hit reboot system and only reboot system.
Download new rom from HERE and extract (using winRAR preferably) to your desktop or anywhere you choose. Location doesn't really matter for this guide to work.
NOTE: If you have anything you care about (like apps, notes etc.) on your N8 make sure you back it up now.
Step 1: Turn your N8 off.
Step 2: Press both Volume buttons down and plug the USB cord into the N8.
NOTE: On your screen you should see a bubble pop up in the lower-right corner saying "Installing drivers". Most likely it will say it can't find the drivers. This is normal. Continue following the steps to install the missing drivers.
Step 3: Open the Device manager by typing mmc devmgmt.msc into your "Run" box on XP or search box in start menu on Windows 7 and hitting enter (you can also find Device Manager in your Control Panel options in Windows 7).
Step 4: With your N8 still in an off state and plugged in via USB you should see a yellow exclamation symbol somewhere next to "Unknown Device" in the list of devices in the Device Manager. Right click on it and select "Update driver software".
Step 5: Now it will prompt you to choose how you want to search for it. Select "Browse my computer for driver software" and it will bring up a window for you to navigate manually to the driver location which is in the "drivers" sub-folder in the NEXTBOOK8ROOT folder. Select which ever system you have (32bit or 64bit) and then hit "OK". You might go thru one or two prompts before it actually installs. Just "OK" everything and you should be fine.
Step 6: Once the drivers are installed you are ready to flash. Go into the root of the NEXTBOOK8ROOT folder and select RK29update.exe (right-click for Win7 users and Run as Admin).
Step 7: Now you should be at the interface of the program and at the bottom in bold words it should say "FOUND RKAndroid rock usb" (if it doesn't then it mean the drivers probably weren't installed correctly). This part is VERY IMPORTANT!! Make sure all of the boxes on the left are checked (should look like the pic below). The one at top is the one usually missing a check and would need to be checked by you.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Step 8: Once all boxes on the left are checked you are going to click on "EraseIDB" at the bottom and let it complete. Once that finishes click on "Run" and you will see a series of commands running in the right window pane (see pics below). Give it some time as it will probably take a few minutes. When it's done it should look like the second pic below.
Once the process is finished your NEXTBOOK should reboot into the recovery and reflash the OS. Congratulations!!! You now have an affordable rooted tablet with access to the Android Market!!
OTHER ROMS YOU CAN FLASH INSTEAD OF THE ONE IN THE ABOVE GUIDE:
Pisteone - [SDK 2.1] EXT4 Bluetooth 3G Root [Basic FW 1.0.21] ICS Style - LINK
Fintadroid - [FULL ROOT & EXT4] [BT & 3G] [FW.1.0.21 PRESTIGE] - LINK
ALL ROMS FOR NEXTBOOK8 - LINK (Be very careful and read before you flash)
Thanks! worked great.
I signed up, so i can say thank you. this worked perfectly.. i was skeptical and scared i'd ruin this tablet, as i got it as a gift, and was obviously disappointed to see no market on it, but this worked. thank you.
How about Nextbook Premium 7?
Thank you!
This worked great, I was able to get the android market installed and working.
Android version?
What version of Android does this install?
Cheers, Greg.
It's work, your are wonderful,thank you Sunnyboy167
Great job! Good to have root and Market working. But anyone else get FC when opening Camera app?
Perfect! I have rooted many Android devices and this is one of the easiest ones. Just read the directions carefully and you'll do fine.
Hopefully someone will release an ICS update for this device soon..after using my Galaxy Nexus, Gingerbread seems so...obsolete.
I'm glad you enjoyed this info just as much as i did
To everyone YOU ARE WELCOME but please....the best way to thank me is by hitting the thank button at the bottom right of my post. Thanks!
@xxProphecyxx - here is a link for the nextbook7 http://gunnersbarn.wordpress.com/2011/11/04/how-to-install-android-market-to-nextbook-premium-7/ I don't see any root method listed on the site but im sure there is one out there if you want to root it too. Or you can even take a chance if youre brave and use a one click root based on the android version you have.
@ghi07 - All this method does is re-install the OS (which is Gingerbread to answer your question) with market and superuser.
@dalerious - I'm sorry but I don't have a Nextbook anymore but if I did I would definitely try my best to help you. Try doing the entire process over and see if that works. Good luck!
THANK YOU!!!!
I was about to throw this tablet out the window!!! Followed the instructions and it works perfectly!!!! Thanks SO SO much!!!
Thanks to you I had a very Merry Christmas haha thank button has been pushed repeatedly!

So I recently bought a Protab 3XXL from vendor Point of View, and I noticed there wasn't much information to find on the internet for this tablet. So I had to figure out by myself how to get things done, and as an android beginner, that wasn't very easy. That's why I wanna create this guide for all you people who bought the same tablet and want to do the following things with it:
1. Upgrade to new firmware release
2. Root the tablet so you can uninstall bloatware and install some advanced apps
3. Save battery, make the tablet go faster and smoother.
This guide will probably work on other RK3066 devices as well. I'm in no way responsible if you brick your device by not following every exact step!
1. Upgrade the tablet to new firmware release
When I initially bought the tablet, the firmware that was installed was buggy as hell, so the first thing I did was install the new updated firmware from the Point of View download site. This made my tablet go a bit faster and save a bit more battery life. The manual on the site though doesn't give a great explanation on how to install new firmware. Here's how to do it easily:
Beware: upgrading your tablet will result in loosing all your data! Make sure you took backups before continuing! Also, make sure you got over 50% of battery life so the tablet doesn't die in the middle of the upgrading process.
Go to http://ow.ly/lSuza and download the latest firmware release (get the one with the latest date in the filename, do not install v1.1 as wifi doesn't work on that one, don't know why) and extract it.
For upgrading your tablet to a new release, you need your tablet to boot into flash mode. This is done by switching off your tablet, wait a few seconds, press the VOLUME UP button and (while still pressing that button) connecting your tablet to your pc. Windows will tell you it failed to install the drivers as none were found, that's because you have to manually point windows where to find the drivers. To install the drivers, follow the steps written in the manual (page 2-6) found on the same site as the firmware update.
Open up rkbatchtool.exe which is in the extracted folder from step 1. If all went well, you should see a green rectangle which means your tablet is correctly connected in flash mode. If this rectangle is pink or no color at all, connect your tablet again holding the volume up button.
Once you got the green light on rkbatchtool.exe, you're good to go and you can follow the steps written in the manual!
I tested this procedure on Windows 7, but I guess it should be about the same on any other Windows version. Just use the appropriate drivers as described in the manual That should be about it, if you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
2. Rooting the tablet
Rooting the tablet is even easier than upgrading it! Here's how to do it:
Go to www.moborobo.com. Download and install moborobo as this app will automatically search for the right drivers (other ones than the ones used to upgrade the device) when you connnect your tablet to your pc.
Make sure you got USB debugging enabled on your tablet (settings -> developers options -> usb debugging)
Open up Moborobo, connect your tablet the normal way (so without pushing the volume button) and let moborobo do the rest. If Moborobo doesn't do anything when connecting the device, click on 'refresh devices'. Installing the drivers may take a long time so be patiently (it took about 15 minutes on my laptop).
When the correct drivers are installed, download the tool to root your device from here: http://ow.ly/lSZtT
Don't worry, it's malware free and safe
Extract the zip and fire up SuperOneClick.exe.
Click on 'root'. Everytime a dialog comes up, press 'yes' or 'ok' a few times untill it says your device is rooted.
Disconnect your tablet and check if superuser is installed, that's it
3. Some battery advice
All Android tablets last about a day and have to be plugged in by the evening, and the Protab is no exception for that! These are some tips to make your battery last longer (most tips are for rooted devices, so make sure you root your tablet first!)
Greenify is a great app to save some battery. Watch what it does and how to use it over here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW81YJME69U. This saved my battery a lot!Download it in the playstore!
Android tablets still have some leftovers from their sibling phones, and that's causing TONS of battery drain. To get rid of the phone functions and a better explanation head over to this guide (very easy to follow): http://ow.ly/lT0ZV
There are a bunch of better home screen launchers out there which are less battery-consuming than the stock android launcher (which the Protab has). My advice is Smart Launcher (or the pro version). This launcher is really smooth, fast and has a clean minimalistic look! Get it at the Playstore: http://ow.ly/lT1yX
Rom Toolbox by jrummy is a great app to execute some root tasks like uninstalling bloatware (software installed by Point of View like their useless keyboard). Head over to the Playstore to download it! Beware of what you're uninstalling, if you uninstall core android apps, it could mess up your system! If this happened, flash your device again as explained in the beginning of this thread.
I use my tablet a lot for reading pdf-files for school. As most pdf-readers have a white background, this drains a lot of battery (the lighter the colors on your screen, the more battery it drains). Moon Reader has an option to read pdf's in night mode (turns the background dark and the words white). This saves a lot of battery and is way easier to read! Head over to the playstore to download it.
As I already said in my previous tip: white colors drain a lot of battery. Therefore, use a dark wallpaper on your home screen!
Always use the lightest apps possible for a task. For example: Chrome browser for Android is a very heavy app which can be perfectly substituted by Boat Browser Mini (a lightweight browser that works blazingly fast). Try and google 'lightweight ........... for android' to see what the best alternatives for a heavy app are!
If someone has other tips for conserving some battery life, be sure to write it in the comments, I'll include it in this list!
If anyone has a better way of solving things or has anything to add to this guide, feel free to let me know

Searched everywhere, but couldn't find any specifically for this tablet. I found a site which stocks many custom roms for the same chip this tablet has (Rockchip RK3066), didn't test any though so I really don't know if they would work:
Code:
http://www.rockchipfirmware.com/firmware-downloads
If there would be enough demand, I could try and make one myself
Hello,
my mother owns a ProTab 3 XXL. Since yesterday the tablet is not starting any more. I tried the reset button and several combinations with the front buttons.
i also checked the voltages:
- charger: 5,2V
- battery when charger disconnected: 4,3V
- battery when charger connected: 4,3V
is there something wrong? How can i fix the tablet?
thank you very much,

Hi,
I need backup/dump for protab 3 xxl, v1.1 (I think any v1.x will do). It has cwm installed already, but user did not backup official rom before changing roms, so now its bootlooping, and no way to flash anything on it. I think last resort is restoring official rom dump. Or maybe some other ROMs if someone can provide dump of it. If size is problem, PM me, I can provide way to upload big files. Thanks in advance!!

Thank you very much. Downloaded already but have trouble entering cwm. What is correct procedure to enter cwm? Releasing power button and pressing and holding volume up and down when point of view logo appears? I tried almost every combination of keys and no way to enter it. Could be cwm got deleted when I tried to install some rk3066 rom for archos tablet. I dont believe it, but that would be logical explanation as to why I cannot enter it.
Last hope will be trying maskrom mode, by shorting nand chip and hoping it shows up in rkflash tool.
I am not using button combo, coz I have app for reboot to recovery. I will try it.

This thread intends to be a general thread for all things about the NuVision Tablet. The aim is to help other users of this tablet to be able to root their device, get a temporary recovery and to unbrick their device. I will add the guides for the following posts below in time. This would not have been possible without help from @andrei_kr.

Unbrick your Tab!
To unbrick your device all you simply have to do is go back to the CWM and restore your backup that you created earlier. If you don't have one, here is a copy of a working backup ---> Google Drive. Credits to @andrei_kr, say thanks!
How to fix touch!
If you unbricked your tablet and your touch isn't working, there is no need to worry. @andrei_kr has provided a guide on how to fix that touchscreen. Credits to him.
NOTE: If your touch is working then do not try this, it will mess up your touch!!
You probably got this touchscreen issue by flashing a different kernel with incorrect drivers.
Now your configuration is likely to differ from the native. You can view the konifig in command prompt or in the terminal :
Code:
cat /proc/gt9xx_config
(only mtk) or using the gtp_tools apk (it is in the attached file below).
It starts with the byte sequence: 0x41 0x1C 0x02 0xC0 0x03
0x41 - 65 version
0x1C 0x02 - 540 horizontal resolution
0xC0 0x03 - 960 vertical resolution
Touch must somehow work to press the button, if there is support otg, then it's easier, you can connect a mouse.
1. Install the gtp_tools_v2.6_20140126_special.apk
2. Go to the option Firmware update. Click refresh, see IC Version: 913_1020 then touch GT913 firmware and 1020.
3. Go to the option Config Settings, press read, the data were considered. Under Normal Config we have:
65 version
540 horizontal resolution
960 vertical resolution
4. Click browse, select click browse to the native config.
5. Native configuration take from your device, in the same paragraph, press the save (saves the backup config file). Native configuration for Fly IQ446 in the attached file. Press send.
6. If nothing has changed, look at the version you have and native config. Then change the version of the file in the native config in your hex.
Example: 0x41 = 65 home, a stranger 0x49 = 73 => replace the 0x41 to 0x49.

Thanks for report.
First want to say much thanks for this thread, it was getting frustrating trying to find a solution.
I have encountered a slight issue trying to unstuck 2 of these devices.
neither have been rooted and are stock devices.
i cant seem to get cwm to locate the backup that you supplied.
do i need to copy it to the cwm backup folder on my sd card?

NuVision TM101A510L
Will this method work with the NuVison TM101A510L. It seems like a lot of work to do if I'm not sure about this model. Also I have a problem with this model overheating and crashing when I play Pixel Gun 3d and it's pissing me off. I just fired off a curse filled missive to NuVision support. They don't even list this model on their registration page and it seems they have no faith in this model. I will never buy this brand again, in fact I would recommend against it to my customers. I've used Azpen tablets with no problem rooting or playing Pixel Gun 3d. I took a chance and I'm so damned sorry I did.
;angry
Thank you so much for this thread!!! I have been looking for a recovery for a few months now and cant believe I didn't find this until now...
ok so a minor problem... I cant seem to flash the recovery... Not sure if ive placed the recovery file on my sd card properly or not cause i locate a few backup files none of which have any effect. I gave up in frustration untill now. ( Currrently working on a few androids one rooting one imea changing so figured id take a crack at these devices again. THe layer of dust on these things are getting a bit thick.)

I think the models numbers are specific so I can't say for certain that this will work with your tab. Try the fastboot/rooting procedure first and then maybe you can just restore the system partition only not corrupting the boot/kernel.

You are using the fastboot method correct? If the recovery script says finished as in no errors show on the screen then it could be the device itself. What do you see?

ill let you know just as soon as i can get back to working on those devices... im prety sure if memory serves correctly, that I was getting some errors regarding unable to mound sd or ext sd. I could be wrong but thats what comes to mind.
Im up to my neck in jobs on other devices. (rooting galaxy S5, changing imei on another S5, IMEI change on a LG Stylo 2 plus, Galaxy Tab 2 system issues need to diagnose, and several screen and lcd replacments)
STUCK
ok so i have a little time to work on these....
When i run the launch.bat and get to fastboot, it goes through the instalation and everything checks ok till the very end where it says failed cause too many links.
included the screenshot so you can see.
At this point im unsure if i just need to try flashing the supersu zip like it instructs but having tried befor it had no luck.
can I not just flash twrp on this thing then su like with most root methods?
after ive flashed super su, when i go to restor the working backup i see a list of backups... including yours but when i select it i always get :
checking md5 sums...
md5 mismatch!
what now?
(i tried just flashing the boot but even that comes back with same error)
I know on other devices the recovery is an img file any the one you provide is a rar... i extracted to my desktop and was gonna try flashing with abd/fastboot but since its not an img file, im thinking it wont work...
any thoughts?
Im still unsure how to flash the recovery that u supply in the section for fixing bootloop....

The too many links error is common for this device. Touch doesn't work with TWRP on this device so CWM is out only go. You can root and using cwm like any other root method.
