Hi everyone! Firts I want to thank you the good job you make and apologize for my bad english.
Yesterday I've bought a tablet BQ Galileo that it looks like BQ Kepler and I would know if it's possible to have temp root at leats or perm root were fantastic . It seems that z4root and SuperOneClick doesn't work.
I don't know that anyone has this tablet in this forum. Thank you very much and if I posted in a wrong section, sorry, please move this thread.
Hi forum,
First post , yeah !
i too have a bq kepler . Nice tablet!
After investigating a lot , i discovered that we cant root directly the tablet,because even if the exploits work , the /system filesystem is cramfs ...which is basically a zipped file. So ,read only .
And thats what we got if we check with checkroot or other root checking apps.
So , i guess that until someone cooks a rom directly for the kepler...we're ****ed.
So please devs, can we have a cooked rom for the kepler ? If you need something , i can assist you with my tablet for testing
Something like that I've read in a forum from my country, Spain.
I can't post the link still, sorry, but probably someone knows htcmania, in this community we follow xda to find new roms.
I know that the manufacturer is spanish but ¿is this tablet sold outside?
A user contacted to BQ and they said it's necessary to root the firmware directly. So that confirm what you said: We're ****ed
I'm spanish too
That's why i told that , if someone volunteers to cook a rom for the bq kepler , my tablet is available for testing
For BQ Kepler there's a valid method to obtain root with the upgrade that BQ have published. Perhaps when BQ public the upgrade for Galileo I can do the same.
ROOT
Hi Guys and also friends from Spain (like me)
There's a smart guy who found the way to do it.
I bought this tablet yesterday and tried to install nitrality to change resolution and several oftenly used apps and.. TACHAN, FC due to permissions..The way he made the root was unpacking the 2.3.1 version ROM and add root to cramfs file system that was compressed before, then pack it back at .img file.. smart!
Go to his blog, i made it and now it's root and also updated. Just backup all your apps and data and copy his .img file to BQ external storage, after disconnecting USB will ask you about installing a new firmware version found (TIP: Rename his file to update.img ,do it using PC before copying it, as BQ usually deliver at updating), click on Install and will restart from Zero but root installed (you'll see the application root at apps menu) It's very important to stay at least 80% battery level to not brick it.. DO IT

100% working, look at his last post, some screenshots are available.
Other issue.. Are u using Skype¿? i was unable to make it work, video is not working at videocalling, only voice and callback .. Step by Step!! I will appreciate if somebody knew about this.
Thanks and ENJOYYYYY ROOT!
Periferals
Since this is one of the only topics about BQ Kepler i ask here how to connect periferals like usb mouse ou keyboard to Kepler.
I´ve the adapter but it doesn´t seem to work. Any ideas please??
Thankx
Keyboard and Mouse
I have tried both and they work using a OTG adapter.
What i was not able to get to work was a Bluetooth dongle which would be greatly useful
Hi All,
After a recent OTA upgrade to 4.1.1 (DDBLL2) my Note 10.1 has stopped connecting to my office WIFI which uses Cisco LEAP.
A similar problem happened with my Note 2 and I was able to solve it by replacing the etc/wifi and etc/dhcpd folder from an earlier firmware version with help from another forum member. I want to try the same with my Note 10.1 too. Unfortunately I do not know how to extract files from a .tar.md5 file of the earlier firmware releases.
So request any of the forum members who are either currently on 4.0.4 (any English firmware US/UK/India) or those who know how to extract files from .tar.md5 to please share the etc/wifi and etc/dhcpd folders from the 4.0.4.
Would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
The Bone Collector
Same issue here
If anyone can help it will be great

I have currently gotten a ZTE Geek v975 with Intel atom z2580 and I would like to know if it is possible to install Windows 8 on it because it has a standard x86 processor. I have already saw and read tomshardware.com/forum/id-1825440/install-windows-intel-based-smartphone.html but it did not go in depth on how to do it so I am asking on this forums on a more in depth guide on how to do it. Thanks
Come on guys. Anybody? Somebody got to have the answer.
https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/ZTEGeekV975
You could try available Tizen Firmware... if you are brave enough...
Btw...
I need Infos about this handset...
1.
Firmware available?
Maybe Download Link?
Flash Tool ?
2.
Anyway to dump memory?
JTAG supported?
UART?
Thanx in advance. :angel:
About Windows...
I don't know ZTE, but I don't think they would sell it with Android, if W8 would be alternate OS...
So you need some nice Developer, who port W8 for ZTE...
BUT...
Best Regards
Edit 1.
Found Firmware + Tools in this Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49421032#post49421032
Maybe interesting for research about Bootloader, Partition, etc...
Thanks! I'll try it
As a Senior member would you happen to know any developer who would be willing to port it to windows 8?
Hi, recently i bought a Lenovo A316 from China.
I tried to find a custom ROM for this device, to flash with SP flash tool, but I cannot find it on all internet.
Only I have found the Stock ROM (With Chinese APPS and only English and China languages. I need Spanish).
The Stock ROM can be flashed without problems (I have made it and works)
There are a lot of upgrading ROMs in ZIP, but for this, is necessary to have CWM recovery installed.
The problem is that this device have a UBI file system and is not possible to install with MTK droid tools. (I tried but the program doesn't works with this type of file system)
The best solution will be If anybody have a custom rom (In spanish to flash with SP tools) or can port to this model other (I see there is customs ROMS of other models like A390). I also try to use the Android Kitchen but I'm newer and have not obtained any positive result.
I know that is more easy to give away this phone and buy another (my headache should cure) but I'm so pigheaded and never give up.
In this forum there are few questions about similar problems with this model but I don't see a solution at all.
Please, can somebody help me!!
Thanks
Hi,
I can find nothing relevant on XDA for your device. You will need to ask about that here,

Good luck!
I have a son who wants to create apps for Firefox OS however we don't have the money to buy another phone and I can't find any pre-built ROMs on the internet. We're not that good in tech and what I could do only (with my very basic knowledge) is to flash .zip files or .img files on the phone and my son only know HTML, CSS and Javascript and wants to use his own apps if we could port it on his phone. Anyone can help?
He's using an Android One phone manufactured by MyPhone Philippines. I will appreciate all the help...
