[Completed] Archos 64 Xeon *root* - XDA Assist

Hi all,
Looking for some info on rooting this "Phablet".
I seem to remember that most MediaTek powered device's can easily rooted,is this true..?
MediaTek MT 6582 @1.3Ghz (Arm CPU Cortex-A7 architecture 28nm 4cores) Mali 400MP (Arm GPU)
Yes internal storage is a cheap 4GB...!! Hence need root access.
Not to concerned about bricking it as I would normally be, somehow I sense most at XDA have cracked it....
I've been using advice from here since
Froyo 2.xxx onwards *root* access granted on a GT-S5570.
Most grateful for advice on rooting this, I really need to shift apps and de-clutter " bloatware"...
Regards Angela

Hi!
Hopefully this will get you rooted. Read the opening post carefully before starting anything.
And any questions/issues/concerns... Its also a good thread to ask in,

Good luck! ?

Also, if backing up is an option before rooting....would be a good idea to.

I've used this tool to root my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460.
My phone has the same hardware of yours but with different branding. http://www.mixeshop.com/star-b92m-i...3000-3g-1280720-display-smartphone_p1683.html.
So if it worked for me, could work for you too.
Thanks for the reply, sounds amazing...
I will try this as soon as my phone hits the doorstep.

This phone is amazing!

i also want to root my s3 frnds plz any one know how to root s3
The only thing is that some time become laggy and the icons disappear. I think we will need a software update, or a custom ROM. I hope someone starts work on it.
I've also just purchased this phone. This is my first Chinese phone so I'm excited to try it out. I will root the system depending on the amount of bloatware. I'll make a youtube review once I get it.

Galaxy s3 i9300 and b92m are identical.
We really need a new ROM. The phone is unstable. Cm10 could be great. We need a developer!

Sorry, I didn't see your previous posts. Yours is a Star b92m. I never like Star or Tinji brand. I'm sure my HDC i9300 EX will have a different ROM. I will extract the ROM before I root it and maybe you can use it. I should receive it in a weeks time as my phone just shipped out.

I just got an email from fastcardtech support saying that there is a mistake. The EX only has 512mb ram instead of 1gb advertised. The sample piece from the factory has 1gb but the stock that came in only 512mb. How much ram have you got in the Star B92M. Is it 1gb?

[Q] Help me identify (and root/fix) this Spreadtrum "Samsung" tablet.

I recently got, as a gift, this fake 7'' "Samsung" tablet. It boots (well, booted, but we'll get to that later) with the Samsung intro screen, has a Samsung brand tag-thingie on the back, calls itself "Model: 6200" but it's obviously NOT a Samsung, because if it was I wouldn't be creating this thread now, would I?
I can actually find it for sale as an "aPad Spreadtrum 6508", and I'd link to a site that has it if I could, but I can't because rules. Thing is, there's no such thing as a Spreadtrum 6508 CPU as far as I could find out, and there's no other info around about it. Which brings me to my second issue: I actually found out a couple of things about it trying to root it, but I kinda sorta...bricked it. Ooops. So now I need your help to try and figure out what this thing actually is and how to fix it - please?
What I found out about the thing:
- It's definitely a Spreadtrum 7'' tablet. The specs, according to the tablet itself, are these:
Model Number: C6200
Android Version: android 4.0.3
CPU Model: ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v71)
Build Number: MocorDroid2.3.5.W12.20_P20.01
CPU Frequency: 1000MHz
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7, [email protected]#34
As you can see, it "lies" about what it is. The ARMm7 Processor, I'm assuming, is a Spreadtrum SC6820/8810. It's even branded Spreadtrum on the inside. I couldn't find ANYTHING about other Spreadtrum 7'' tablets tho. It seems like everything with those CPUs are 3.5'' or 5'' phones.
- It has no fastboot or recovery mode. It actually has a hard reset button on the top, which is weird. I couldn't adb it either, but I can access it with ResearchDownloader via ChannelServer, even after it's "bricked".
- It looks like the pic attached in this post.
Any help, from the specific brand/model of this thing, to a copy of its firmware, FDLs, even info about other Spreadtrum-based 7'' tablets would be very much appreciated. I'm not very much tech-savvy - I bricked my phone, duh - so I'm kinda at a loss here. Thanks in advance and if this is in the wrong place, please tell me.

Hi,
I can't find anything on XDA about your device, but one of the first 2 for methods in this directory may possibly work for you.... Use at your own risk of course,
XDA Root Directory
As far as a newer android version goes.... Unless someone stays development for your device, you will probably have to wait for the manufacturer to update you.... Assuming they do.
Good luck!

Hi, thanks for the answer.
That seems some what dangerous method to root :crying: , but I will see if it will work :fingers-crossed:
Unfortunately I think they wont update it to a later android version. I was thinking if I could update through an unofficial way?
The main reason is to use the apps mentioned in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2329080 , to remove the buggy touch buttoms, that sometimes when pressing back it also takes screenshots or and reduces the volume, also happens when Im just scrolling the setting menu or in some games, that is really annoying . And to reduce the resolution to see if I can get some better fps in games, though the gpu is a mali 400. But that requires 4.3 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nomone.resolution_changer
Rooting has nothing to do with updating... In a way.
Yes, developers can often create aosp roms for devices with Android versions higher than the devices official last version. But I can't find any for your device. And yes, you need root and a custom recovery for flashing roms. So those root methods probably won't help with that.
So it's up to the manufacturer to update you.... And they may have stopped updating your device, or just haven't yet. Updates can come very slow, if ever for less popular devices I'm afraid.
As far as Rooting being risky, yes it can be. Everything we do when altering our devices can be risky. It comes with the territory.
---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 AM ----------
If you want to avoid risk for now, I suggest asking for help in the 2nd link I gave you. ?

[Completed] [Q] TwinTAB T73GQ1 CPU (and GPU) overclock

General specs:
google "TwinTAB T73GQ1 specifications"
on the site and also on the retail box, the clock speed is @ 1.5 GHz
but Hardware Info reports:
Twin TAB T73GQ1
Android version 4.2.2
Kernel version - 3.4.5
MKT 8389, Quad core arm V7 processor max freq 1.2 GHz (cpu-z reports same max clock speed)
Gpu - POWER VR SGX 544 MP (this also mismatches with "Neon 3D" which is on the site in the GPU field; in specifications section)
See the issue yet? 1.2 GHz and 1.5 GHz has considerable effects in performance (in my opinion). That is the reason why i want to overclock my device to at least 1.5 GHz . . . . at least. I've rooted my phone, did some few noob level kernel tweaks( i still consider myself a noob ). I know that i need to flash a custom, open source kernel, to actually enable OC . . . . . . and that's where i need some help ,I don't know which kernel to flash. I am also aware of the CyanogenMod ; but guess what, my device is not on the supported list. I didn't take the risk to "install it anyway" or manually .
please help? :fingers-crossed:
Thanks!
excuse me if I sound weird or inappropriate by any means .. I'm new here in XDA and did't acheive a good grade in o'level English.
Hi,
I believe you created a Visitor question on this earlier? Either way, I can not find anything relevant on XDA for your device. Chances are the only way you'll see any development for this device is if you learn to develop yourself unfortunately.
You can ask here if anyone knows of anything at all,
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
And if Google search has nothing on this, then it likely means there's nothing. That's the pitfalls of more obscure devices unfortunately.
Good luck!
---------- Post added at 01:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------
Oh... And never install anything not made for your exact device, or you'll likely destroy it.
The answer to the visitor question seemed inadequate at first . . . hoped to find more as an xda member;and i did
Thanks Darth

[Completed] searching for custom rom / recovery for Diaotec cx-919

I bought a Diaotec CX-919 from amazon, and supposedly it is capable of more than it has done so far. I don't like playing with it without being able to install cwm or twrp so I am looking for any info on installing a recovery and alternate roms. The one that is on it is 4.4.2 which was a pain to root, and apparently the kernel won't let me OC to the advertised 1.6 - 1.8 GHZ, and the best Wifi connection it even detects is 802.11g. Supposedly it is capable of "n". I'm guessing most of the complaints I have about the device can be solved with changing / modifying software, but I haven't found much reference to it online. The closest I have found is generic info about similar devices using the RK3188 chip. Any help or pointing me in the right direction for help is appreciated.

And flashing anything not specifically made for your exact device model number could destroy it.
