[Q] PLT-7223-G assistance.

Hi.
I got a Proscan PLT-7223-G tablet for really cheap (free.)
It's actually not bad (yeah, yeah...), and runs most things that I've tried fairly well (had some stuttering playing Tomba! but eh...)
Thing is... I want to be able to do a few things that I need root for.
So far, I have found nothing about this tab. It's running a RK2928, has JB 4.1.1, and that's it.
There are no hard keys, so I can't even use recovery mode (even though I can get to it through adb...)
Everything I have tried to do to root it has failed. Auto-rooting programs hang. Manual rooting gives me permission errors (probably the cause of failed everything else,) and I don't really know enough to figure this out on my own.
So... Anyone out here have any help for this mystery tab? Or at least be able to point me in some new direction? Or even just let me know how to use recovery without buttons?
Thanks in advance.

So, I've kept trying to figure things out to see if it's a clone of something else. It seems the same as the IPPO K7, but I don't know the GPU on mine since it just says "Super 3D GPU" on it. And the IPPO K7 root kit gives me errors about not being able to access folders..

PLT-7223G ADB Connection
Kurobei, I know its been two months since your post but I'm hoping you will reply. I also have a PLT-7223G tablet that I have been trying to connect to using ADB. I have stumbled through windows XP "New Hardware Found" and managed to get "Android ADB Interface" to load when I plug in the Tablet. But ADB DEVICES returns nothing. I have the latest ADB version of 1.0.31. I have added these lines to android_winusb.inf
;ProScan plt-7223g
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_16d5&PID_8005
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_16d5&PID_8005&REV_0222
under both [Google.NTx86] & [Google.NTamd64]
Do you have any tips?

Never mind. I found my error. In C:\Documents and Settings\User\.android\adb_usb.ini I was using an "o" instead of a"0" for the line "0x16d5".
All better

Perhaps this is late, but I got the same tablet two weeks ago. Look at this other post for info on rooting it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450480

So, a colleague has this tablet and I was looking for options to root and landed on this thread. Thanks for pointing us the right way.

I had pretty much given up on rooting this, and then, for whatever reason, decided to look at this thread...
I've all but given up and then you have to go and make me very happy with it.
Thanks a ton. I've now got the thing rooted and am no longer stuck with only 4gb of internal space, among other things!

Unlocking/Resetting PROSCAN PLT 7233G
Hello,
I am trying to fix a tablet (Proscan PLT 7223 G) for a friend of mine. They bought it off a television network and when they turned it on, it required a passcode (requires letter and/or numbers). I have tried MANY methods, from resestting it through the pinhole in the back of the device. Even trying various programs that can unlock the tablet via PC. I think the main issue is that the tablet's usb debugging setting is not on. And with that not being on, I can't do anything on command prompt. I really need some assistance on unlocking this tablet. I have been trying for days and even searching xda and google for any solutions that may come up. Didn't think this would be an issue but it has now. Would greatly appreciate any ideas or methods to unlocking the tablet OR activating USB debugging via PC command prompt with the tablet's password.
Thanks,
EzE601

[Q] AGPtEK TP704R Problems

Ok, here goes. I ordered a 7" tablet fromareseller on NewEgg. It's an AGPtEK TP704R. Out of the box, it didn't have Google Play Store. I tried installing it as an APK, and all it did was crash. Lo and behold, their support site had an update ready to solve the problem! I downloaded the appropriate firmware for my chipset (Rockchip 3066), fired up their updating software and...fail. Fail. FailFailFail. Yes, I tried five times, each time going over each step painstakingly so as not to miss a footnote. On the fifth attempt, the PC I had connected the tablet to bluescreened. Now all I get is the AGPtEK splash screen and NOTHING else. It isn't even recognized by Windows. I'm no stranger to modding, rooting, and flashing. I started out with my Incredible (running CM7 by the time I upgraded), and then continuing the trend with my Galaxy S3. I've had soft bricks before, nothing I couldn't boot into recovery to get myself out of...but the only button this thing has is a power button. Well, I guess it has a reset switch that seems to just shut it immediately off. Any suggestions?
TL;DR: New tablet bricked after manufacturer recommended firmware flash.:fingers-crossed:

Download version 1.7 of the Rockchip Batch Tool, that seems to have done the trick for me, there is a bundle of that plus the version 3.5 of the drivers for the usb floating around (not sure about policy for linking outside XDA) easy to find on google though.

[Q] I9000 Not working due software mess-up

Hey guys!
First off, i was searching through loads of forums and attempted different solutions. Anything to get it back working. This only made it worse
What happened was as follows:
After having CM 10.1 or some version of it (had the OS at 4.3 i believe), my phone was very slow, so slow in fact that i got so mad at it that i almost bit through it. So one day when i was in a tent at the foot of a mountain all alone (not that long ago) i decided to rollback the phone to its original state from backup i made some months ago before i upgraded the OS. At the same time just before this i backed up the current build just in case. Using ClockWorkMod 3pointsomething.
It went through everything and then asked me: Do you want to root this device? (or something in those lines). I, having no clue, clicked one of the million "no" on the screen.
After this it rebooted with errors saying "Can't detect this drive can't detect that drive". In other words, it couldn't detect niether Internal SD nor External SD. While having the Samsung logo being displayed without booting if i didn't go into "Volume Up, Menu Key and Start your tiny engines!".
I thought i could fix it and looked through tremendous amount of internets in attempt to fix it. Neither Odin nor Heimdall Frontend could detect the device even after installing the drivers and samsung kies and messing about with those two in between.
After a while i ended up with "Phone . . ! in a orange triangle . . PC" aka black screen of death, while the phone can go into download mode. Which in my hand is equally useless as no program can detect it still.
Now i just decided to start a new thread even though there is endless amount of other threads but none seem to cover exactly this as i haven't yet managed to fix it. Plus a response on progress is always pleasant as i personally don't know when i succeed unless phone works fully again.
How bad off am i?
Any input will be greatly appreciated! :victory:

Hoping not to have to spend money on a new one and as far as i've gathered this can be solved - Anybody can give me some tips on where to look or what i could try?

First you are posting in the wrong location as i9000 has its own forum here for Q&A and others too
second click on My Android Solutions (link below) and try methods to fix USB connection problems first after that get into download mode and use a rescue kit from MY Android Collections (link below) or follow this to flash a Gingerbread JVU stock ROM
Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.​

Minix X5 Boot Problem

First post but have been reading this forum for a long time. This be the first time I have ran across an issue that has not been covered already on this forum or really any other. So here's the issue(s):
I have a stock X5 that is stuck on the Minix boot screen. I've made no attempts at modifying this device. This happened after watching some shoddy torrents of Breaking Bad. I had been noticing significant lag with the device prior to the downloads. Nothing other than standard media, social networking and gaming apps installed......there is a task killer on the device, the name escapes me at the moment.
Here's what I've tried:
1. Unplug all external devices (keyboard, external hard drives and removed SD card) and power up. Boot issue remains.
2. Unplug (then replug) power supply and start. Boot issue remains.
3. Hold reset button with pin and power up. DROID laying down with red triangle and exclamation comes up for a minute or two then it goes to the indef boot screen.
4. Held in reset button, power button and had girlfriend plug in the device. (I had no delusions of this doing anything but it stopped the gf's nagging to get it fixed for a while. I'm an electronics tech.....apparently that is the same thing as a programmer in her eyes.)
5. I've left the boot screen on for about 48 hours. Obviously this didn't fix anything.
6. Hooking the device up to my Samsung 7.7 tab. It turns on Android debugging on my tab but I really had no idea where I was going to go once I connected the devices. I just now thought of this and am planning on exploring this option a bit more with some searches. I'm quite sure there are no guides for working with these two specific devices though.
Hooking up to a computer to deal with recovery is not an option for me. I am not in the US and access to computers (other than an Internet cafe) is not an easy task. I am going to bet this is the best fix for most though.
My tab is rooted running PAC ROM if that is worth anything. This is currently my only real option for hooking up to another device. Hope to get some ideas here.

Hmm, so no one has any ideas? If using a comp is the only way can someone post how to recover an X5?

In case you didn't know, there is an (un)official Minix forum. May be they can help. (link)
Also, SomeCoolTech in YouTube has done a video on how to flash Minix X7. That could also be helpful.

Thanks for the reply. I was able to find someone to let me borrow their computer. Flashed the Finless ROM and it got it running again. The thing is not running smoothly though.

I had all kinds of issues then sent it in for rma, new x5 works perfectly, that is likely your best option. could you elaborate on your specific issues I am curious?

Problems rescuing a flytouch superpad 7

Hello All.
So the other day I paid a visit to the local skip, as you do, and I found a Flytouch Superpad 7 in its' box, so I took it home.
Plugged it in and it started to boot up, first screen had "Tablet PC powered by...." then the next screen was of the Android Droid with its' arms folded, it usually freezes here. Sometimes it will go onto a screen with "Android" in the centre, but no further.
So I have tried various combination of pressing buttons to no avail. Cannot access a recovery anything.
I took it apart and found it is a Yones Top Tech BC1003, so have been searching and searching for information and roms etc for days.
What I would like to know is, do you think this tablet is saveable?
I have plugged it into my laptop but it doesn't recognise it, but wouldn't the tablet have to boot to be recognised?
I have read thread upon thread, but still do not understand how I could get a rom onto this tablet if it is not recognised by the laptop and it doesn't show a recovery section where I could boot from a SD Card.
Any advice gratefully accepted. Just trying to save something from the landfill.

Just an update to say I managed to get the tablet up and running.
I ended up going to a lot of foreign language website through Google Translate and found some firmware for this board at the Koncaso site. Burned the .img file and put it in the tablet, which now works again.
