Apad M70003 MIDI

Hi all. Just finished ordering this tablet that is currently running cupcake. Would love to root it and install a custom ROM. Any info on how I can achieve this?
Thanks in advance

offtopic... does the apad run any good? is it smooth?

Why is it off topic. It is a tablet that runs android. Do not have it yet so can't comment on how good or bad it runs.

i was asking an off topic question (i.e. not related to your question). guess i phrased my sentence wrongly. do post here on how well this device seems to perform.

I will. Thanks for your intrest.

You should of waited for the Notion's ADAM

I only paid $100.00 US for my tablet. This one is considerably more.

hey could you pm me the site where you purchased it from?

could you update your main post with the specs that you ordered from? Apparently there are Apad clones with crappy processors instead of the rockchip processors

Dealextreme has it for cheap

dealextreme is the crap version. the proper apad is the one with rockchip in it. and i found out that the cheapest apad with rockchip is ~150usd

i have one of those too.
with the rockchip which actually is not to bad of a processor. nowhere near the A4 but ok to work with.
it's an ARM derivative and consists of a cpu and dsp(gpu).
i would also like to know if anybody has played with it yet.
i followed the android instructions of building a development envirnment and have the tablet actually show up in eclipse but where to go from here?
sorry for threadjacking a bit
i would first of all like to be able to upgrade android. if possible 2.2 or at least to 1.6.
the device has the upgrade locked.
the are also language option conflicts were suggestive text and some keyboard keys still show up in (i guess) Chinese.

It'll most likely be impossible to upgrade the apad to 2.1/2.2 as rockchip dsp isn't actually a gpu, its a video processor for videos only.
on another note i have decided to pass up on the apad as it doesn't seem that "future-proof" most likely will get this http://www.wiipad.us/product.php?id_product=11 unless better options come out in the next 1 month or so

does android 2.x require a specialized dedicated gpu?
the dsp is essentially a gpu, it is capable of playing 720p video.
it should be plenty for android 2.x to get around
so i can move files from the device to the pc.
i copied the data and system folder.
what to do now?

The wiipad seems to be a very nice tablet. But till they receive a proper review, for the money, I'll stick to my Apad.

Yeah but it decodes videos only, a gpu actually pumps out the graphics which is an intergral part of 2.1 onwards (also in the rockchip's specs i saw somewhere this chip does not support 2.1) The wiipad neno has a cortex a8 core which is similar to the ipad's processor so it is running on 2.1.

yeah notion ink is awesome but it's been delayed so long that it is not worth much with the impending competition. (unless they make it unbelievably cheaper)

ok i see
any hope for 1.6 at least? maybe 2.0?

[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 ??

extrange
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

MTK6577 phones?

Hi All,
Been seeing a lot of china phones running the MTK6577 + SGX531 and was wondering if anyone had any real performance figures on any of these devices, particularly those with screen resolutions greater than 800x480.
There are a lot of knock-off phones running this however there are some china-branded phones sporting them as well.
Ive seen some threads surrounding haipai devices that are running this SoC, however they only seem to have 512MB RAM and WVGA screens (albeit the screens are quite large physically).
I was wondering if there were any phones running MTK6577 with 1GB RAM and a 960x540 or better yet a 1280x720 screen?
I understand that they are cheap and would like to know if they represent 'bang-for-buck' at all?

Well depends who makes it ...xiaomi is great got the mi-1 going to get the two ... look at fastcardtech.com for xiaomi mi-2

I have the Haipai x710d MTK6577, And so far i love it, Rooted with a custom rom, Super fast and lots of features 2gb of usable space, With the custom rom it fixes the SD card problem so you are able to save all your data and app on it now. very speedy, great screen color yeah its not a super amoled or anything but it looks great to me, It depends on opinion about the screen resolution and the way it looks. Games play great. Battery life is awesome. Camera is awesome. ICS 4.0.9, For me and this is my first second Chinese phone, And so far i love it. recommend to anyone.

I am interested in knowing the basics:
How is the phone signal, volume and clarity?
How is the GPS lock? Is it fast enough (under 10 seconds)? Is it usable for google navigation?
How is the camera? Fast enough with good pictures?

I have been looking at the HaiPai however the low screen resolution is a bit unfortunate.
Was wondering if you had run Antutu on it at all?

we need an a chinese phone section.
Just got my Amoi n820, trying to figure out how to root it.
Anyway Antutu score is about 5400+ ? its actually a pretty decent performer

It appears that there is an S3 knock-off that has a 1GB RAM and a 1280x720 screen which is pretty decent.
I have also found a "Hero H9500+" which is essentially a Zopo ZP900 but with only 512MB RAM and a 5.0MP camera (8.0MP would be better but ahh well).
Still for less than $200 it has a 5.3" QHD 960x540 screen. Havent been able to find any video demonstrations of it however.
It would be awesome to have a 5"+ phone with 1GB RAM and a 1280x720 screen. I think we will see them soonish.
I understand that MediaTek are bringing out a quad-core (i think its MTK6585?) later this year which should see quad-core china phones boom. The GPU is supposed to be the SGX544 which is used in TI OMAP 4 amongst other things.

You can root it using TSsparky

Can some one please tell me which is the better processor b/w MTK6575 and MTK6577? Thanks.

MTK6575 - single core
MTK6577 - dual core
The MTK6577 is better.

how can i root this Hero H9500+?

Try getting the HDC Galaxy S3 Original, Plus, or Pro. They are almost perfect Samsung Galaxy S3 copies and I believe they have a 1.2ghz dual core processor in there and an 8 megapixel camera. I just don't know if there is a way to root it or install custom ROMs on it.

Be very careful. Many shops advertise 1,2 Ghz but they do send you a 1.0 Ghz phone. Afaik there is no 1.2 Ghz variant around.
I own one of the "1.2ghz" MTK 6577 and the fact that they have a sticker with "quadcore CPU" on it should tell you something about how the chinese advertise their products.
That being said i knew that i am buying a 1.0 GHZ dualcore phone and i am very happy with it. It's really fast and powerful enough to do some gaming if one likes to.
It's the Tinji I9300 S3 clone 4,7 inch. It's getting sold under all sorts of names aparrently.

Could you post some screenshots of the home screen and app drawer?

TW is TouchWiz (from Samsung Galaxy phones, look a screenshot of the home screen up on Google.) and AOSP is Android Open Source Project, and the design of that is found on the Galaxy Nexus (stock Android, no changes made to any icons.)

Which is better?

The MTK6575 or MTK6577?
Would it be as the model number follows, higher up it goes the better it gets? So the MTK6577?

I assume you're referring to the Mediatek MT6575 and MT6577 chipsets? The MT6577 is dual-core, the 6575 is single-core. Other than that they seem pretty similar so the MT6577 is probably better. This link has some useful comparison between the two.

Yea I've been debating on getting this http://china-made-wholesale.com/i9977.html Dapeng i9977, I thought from what I gathered is it's not true dual-core, or only consider dual-core causes theres one cpu at 1Ghz and a gpu at 400Mhz, eitherway, I'm gunna pick this up until I can afford a Galaxy Note 2 it'll be interested to do a side-by-side comparison to the Dell Streak (Mini) 5 I have and see which out performs which, I know the Dapeng i9977 has a A9 Cortex cpu and it's nothing to laugh at and is a pretty powerful one. Plus for $179 shipped you really can't beat it considering it's going else for up to $225. I think I found a good way to root it, only thing that will suck is no custom rom's but I don't really hop, jump and skip around rom's too much I find a good one flash it and stay with it.

[Q] ZOPO ZP980? Anyone?

Hello everyone.
I was surfing the web yesterday and I discovered pretty weird android phone and wanted to share it with you guy. I don't know if you have heard about the phone ZOPO ZP980. If yes, please can you provide with more info, because i couldn't find any benchmarks or additional info.
So, the phone is 5 inch, Full HD, 13.1MP + 5MP front camera.
It has some kind of 4core CPU: MTK MT65891.2GHz, Cortex-A7 quad-core
GPU: Power VR SGX544
It looks pretty handsome and I kind of like it
It comes with 4/16GB ROM and 1GB RAM + sdCard support.
The best part is that it costs only 250$
So, everything looks like a high end expensive spartphone. But sounds too good to be true, so whats the problem with it?
I don't know what to expect from that phone as it is made in china. But sounds pretty cool.
Here's the official website link: http://www.zopomobileshop.com/en/10...d-13-mp-camera-mt6589-android-smartphone.html
Do you know about this phone? May be anyone owns it? Can you provide more info?

Zopo 980 is actually a really good device for those looking to switch from iPhone. It's obviously physically similar - making it easier to adjust versus typical phablet type devices.
Try the Official Zopo 980 Product Page for more details.

I was in the market too for this phone, but in the end I decided otherwise. I've ordered the UMi X2T.
Here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtEzLsxd178 you have some extra info.

Been using the Zopo C2 (1Gb Ram 4Gb ROM) for the last 2 weeks. Frankly love the phone. The display is just amazing. 441 PPI.My colleagues have HTC One n Butterfly n Samsung S4 the display is just as good if not better viewing angles are amazing too. I've been playing Subway surfers n temple run with out any lag. Heavy games like Contract killer2 which gets stuck on my S3, works seamlessly on this. Antutu benchmark is a little under 12k. For the price $220 its much more than worth its price.
