Android Tablet (x2) needing custom roms

Hey gang,
I have a unique request for a couple roms.
I ordered 2 android tablets and am currently waiting for them to arrive. Probably 2 weeks or so.
Google Android 7" Netbook Tablet PC UMPC MID 1.2GHZ
Google Android 7" notebook Netbook Tablet PC UMPC MID
I bought them to simply play with and will probably give them to family members once I am done tinkering around. They were pretty cheap so big loss if they totally suck. Once I receive them I will do a proper review on the full features of these two devices since most online reviews are sorta vague and lacking in the full specs department. Once received I will try to get to a bootloader screen and see if rooting and pushing new versions of Android is even possible. Both devices "say" they will have upgraded roms in the future, but we all know how that is . I just wanted to post here and see if any Devs wanted to try to root these things in hopes of making them more functional.
Below are the full specs that was listed for each device. Again, The specs listed are never consistent from site to site so there is no telling what each tablet will include internally.

Again, these two tablets are uber cheap. I expect them to be nothing more than what is listed above (at best). I am not expecting them to run like a unit with a Snapdragon processor ... more like a G1
All in fun ya know! Only way to learn.
If anyone is interested in having a 'remote' go at these via chat or something just shoot me an email or PM.
I will update this post when I actually receive the devices.
Later!

I wonder what the specific specs are on that 1.2ghz cpu, and if it can support flash 10.1 when it comes out or not.

On the model with the 1.2GHz CPU, the seller is actually a combining the MHz from both the "CPU600MHz+DSP600MHZ" to come up with the 1.2GHz.
It is really just a 600MHz processor :\
I will run some benchmark tests on both units though

WOOT!
Maybe you can provide a little review? ... Like benchmarking and stuff. Also, if you have the time, see if you can figure out different boot modes.
Different button combinations and stuff. I plan to do all this when I get mine. Just wanting to get a jump on things =)

check slatedroid.com for a community around these, including custom ROMs

I am watching this closely because I am interested in the aPad version

http://cgi.ebay.com/Apad-Super-Thin...md=ViewItem&pt=US_Tablets&hash=item3a5ae6bad5

I'm interested in picking on up too. It would pair good with my Hero, especially if I can't get my hands on a EVO 4G.
And the fact that it has slightly better specs than the Hero I don't see why it couldn't run 2.1 or even 2.2.

Will do! Good to know there are other communities out there that aren't just HTC based. (no disrespect to XDA of course)

I agree. I actually want the aPad version, but I decided to roll the dice and see what hardware the cheaper version has.
If it doesn't have the webcam, I will just sell it at my cost and get the aPad version
If I have to wait for the aPad, I'll still have the cheaper white one to play with to pass the time.
INTERESTING STUFF!

I just noticed the ePad version has 1.5 and the white one has 1.6

Correct.
The aPad (black one) has Android 1.5, but they state they will offer upgrades to the OS later because this tablet is only a few weeks old on the market.
The "Eken M001" (white one) comes stock with Android 1.6
Evidentially, there is already a ROM replacement at SlateDroid.com for the white model!
I REALLY can't wait to get both of them and do some massive testing!
FUN STUFF!

EKEN M001 off of ebay. Got 2
I just got 2 EKEN M001 for 30$ each off of ebay .. They have the same speks as the one listed here. There are many Chinese clones of the Ipad and they are at a realy good price. Now if only we can get a build of 2.2 with JIT working on them .. they will be realy great

NO KIDDING !!!
I gave $100 for mine shipped

on the slatedroid forum concerning the M001 (white version), users can not play videos, the internet is very slow and the WIFI is very weak and randomly drops the signal. Someone stated that the OS is not as refined as it appears from the videos (some sorry build of Android). I hope the reviews are better for the apad version.

Looks to me like they are a little light on memory with only 128 mb.

yea that's a problem with me, on Slatedroid forums they are trying to figure out a way to upgrade it.

Is it not possible to some how allocate some space from an SD or microsd card as ram, kind of how you can do it on a PC?

I don't think Android makes use of that. It sounds like a great app though =)

130 Dollar Android Laptop

Just came across this news that a laptop named Doel running Android has been produced in Bangladesh...and its running Android.
Here are the specs:
Doel 2102
10.0″ LCD Panel
(1024*600)
VIA 8650 800MHz
512 MB RAM
Integrated 0.3 MP
Webcam
WiFi 802.11b/g
2 USB 2.0
SD Slot for Max 32 GB
Google Android
Integrated
Price- $130
News Source: http://techspyre.com/doel-a-laptop-for-130-made-in-bangladesh/

Interesting, that price is about one month salary for the average worker. Compare that to here (USA) a computer is 3-4 days of an average workers salary. I great start to helping the 8th largest population to become digital

there are lots of those similar ones on deal extreme
all of those android "laptops" are more a Netbook than an actual laptop.

I hope they open it for the international market...may be at a higher price so that the government can further subsidize the local price and make it more affordable

But see it is something huge for a country like Bangladesh...

If it's any good and doesn't have any mjaor problems, i would buy one.

here's a semi decent one like the one OP mentioned
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/7-resi...c-with-wifi-tf-hdmi-white-arm-cortex-a9-67193
again only 512 RAM, froyo, ARM 9, 4GB internal, 7" screen, sd card slot, 3.5mm Audio,2 x USB 2.0, 1 x HDMI, Earphone, power adapter included
another one http://www.dealextreme.com/p/8-touc...d-2-2-tablet-pc-w-wifi-tf-arm-v9-800mhz-70508
8" instead

Getting one of these is something that I need to look into

i've been keeping my eyes on many of those
waiting for a dual core model to pop up

Screw it and get a decent tablet and a blue tooth keypad, I love my gtab and with all the development going on I can have anew device in a few mins .

IM looking for a cheap but rather reliable pad for a 10yo and occasionally a 4-5yo

I would buy one, thats a heck of a deal for the average user.

Resistive screens are terrible unfortunately otherwise it's pretty decent.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App

I think that is a good price for something like that. but what is the HD space? and you cant do much of anything major with 512MB ram but its probably a descent piece of harware

Again I'd like to stress that there are scores of such tabs already available, but it is something big and commendable for a developing nation like Bangladesh.

Buying A Tablet!!! Need Help!!!

So like most, im getting some cash back for taxes and instead of buying a new computer I think I NEED a tablet instead. I could go to best buy or target or where ever but i dont believe they know all of what the great memebers here at XDA know.
What im looking for:
WiFi
8gb + internal mem
Nice Screen
Fast
And of course i want to root and custimize it as well.
Im mainly going to use to surf the web and watch videos, and prob some games. So what does that leave me with?
Moto Zoom
Hp TouchPad
Samsung Galaxy
Ive never owned a tablet so descriptions only go so far, what peoples general feelings towards there tablets?

Transformer prime too expensive?

I own a Motorola Xoom that has what you need and please consider it also has a sim-card slot so you can connect everywhere with a 3G connection (you'll never know) and it also integrates a tegra2 GPU (so it's fast in games and You'll like it.. 1Ghz CPU is enough for the rest). The screen is very nice and bright. And last but not least, battery runs for like 3/4 days in "office" use.

How strong does the xoom feel to you? Do you think it would survive a fall inside the house(usually 3 ft or so)? Thanks for the info

I also own a xoom and like it.
Before you buy you might want to look into the developer thread (or verify there is a dev thread) for your proposed device and see if you like the level of action.
I don't know about this Ainol device... sheesh stay away from the cheapest of the cheap.

Is camera a must? If it's not I would recommend the Kindle Fire. If camera is a must I have an HTC Flyer and I am very pleased with it.

u know now a days kids they need to capture anything and everything
thats y asked for playbook or iball. btw doing a search and seems iball is pretty impressive .

You could place the Acer Iconia a100, a200, etc. (there are other variants) into consideration.

I saw on slickdeals yesterday that the HTC Flyer can be had for $149.

Blasphemy, but I would actually get him the iPad2 wifi only edition which iirc goes for 399 now that the iPad3 is out. The kids love the Apple stuff and all their friends have apple, etc etc. There is a South Park episode called the Human CentiPad which speaks to this issue.

how about hcl me x1 tab . as the range im looking for is 250$ or inr 14000
doing a lot of search and the iball slide rates better than BB,olive,hcl
so confusing

I'd go for an iPad 1 or 2.

I must say , if your kid play games alot , this tablet will be for him . It wouldn't be that bad . Running games such as 'Temple Run ' will be as of no lags for him . C:

i do have an Ipad 2 but now theres a war over it as that was bought for the elder one. so just to peace things , i want something but worth for the second.
games liked by kiddo are temple run( i too like it , angry birds , all action arcade games
thats why was wondering if hcl can handle it
@sky plz check iball slide too and let me know . will be obliged

@Kratos , it is another tablet similar , but it's better . Because this processor can play games even better than that processor . I think you should buy iBall Slide .

get him a gaming tablet
get him a gaming tablet. for 50 dollars to 200 dollars you can get one with a very decent resistive screen or a badass capactivive screen. I was going to buy one of these before I bought an icontrolpad for my samsung fascinate:
JXD601
dingoo-scene.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-videos-of-jxd-601-in-action.html
Ydpg16 from Yinlips:
willgoo.com/yinlips-ydpg16-android23-retro-handheld-wifi-preorder-p-196.html
These two are the base sub-$120 dollar models with resistive screens. There's tons of user forums and stuff for them and they run n64, ps1, all emulators and android games and they both come with a cortex a8 and 1 year old hardware.
There's an awesome $200 version of both of these that have capactivite screens. I'm 24 and if I had kids that played video games I would definitely introduce them into this field. There's a modding community for both devices if you want to stick with android.

thanks mate, it looks like a psp and i already have one

jxd.hk/products.asp?id=604&selectclassid=009006
that one has a capacitive screen, supports ics and has all the bells and whistles of the higher end chinese tabs. performance is similar to the galaxy s.
If you have a decent budget to work with and it seems like you do, I recommend the newest galaxy tablet or pretty much anything with a samsung screen

guys made up my mind for lenovo a1 16gb
whats ur take on this tab?

It seems interesting, indeed.

Yes looks good,the Antutu result looks impressive,wonder what price.

It's $120 for the 1gb ram/ 8gig storage.. and only $141 for the 2gb ram/ 16gig storage model.. I'm seriously thinking of getting this myself, you can't even buy the exynos developer board alone for that low of a price!

only wifi ... but they do sell the USB to RJ45 LAN Adapter
i wonder will that work

Ahhh no bluetooth. Wth. I'm not buying another ATV without Bluetooth. I miss having some additional controller options and wireless devices.
I like the 2 built in USB and separate power. One USB is used via AirMouse and an extra port is a plus. A microUSB/OTG cable can be a pain.
Sounds awesome though. My MK808 suffices just fine though and I swore I wouldn't get another unit unless it had bluetooth because they don't even play nice with USB-BT.
