I have a Chinese Android Netbook (Model: HL-PC1088) that I would like to wipe and try to resell. It runs Android Jellybean 4.2.1. I would like to wipe all of the data currently on the device by performing a factory reset, but I'm having trouble finding any tutorials or resources on how to do so for this device. If someone could point me in the right direction, or has any advice in general preparing a device for resale, I would greatly appreciate it! If you need any more information, either about the device or anything else, please ask!

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist. On most Android devices, there is an option, usually under a "Backup and Reset" menu, to perform a factory reset but there is no forum specifically for the HL-PC1088 at this time and I was unable to find any reference to that device. I suggest that you ask your question with all relevant details in the friendly general Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help. That's a good place to start where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you.
Good luck!

Well I think that pretty much explains it... Except for why the hell half the system apps were deleted when I factory reset, even the home launcher. So I really need the firmware or another solution that'll get a decent working ROM on this tablet. Any help would be much appreciated.
Hi,
I suggest asking about your issue in this thread dedicated to your device,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-pad-10/general/dev-thread-lg-g-pad-7-0-8-0-10-1-t2838995
Good luck!
I suggested that maybe you look at that thread a little closer, or at all maybe... There's nothing about the stock firmware and the thread is "dedicated" to 3 devices of varying specs. There's nothing about a stock KDZ for v410 in that thread or anywhere else that I've looked.
If you read my reply, I suggested you ask about it in that thread, because I found nothing else relevant on XDA for your device.
If you'd rather not then, you will need to ask in this section...

Hi all
Just got myself an Asus TF103C and have been looking at other posts here like http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/asus-transformer-pad-tf103c-tablet-root-t2802995/page5
which helped me to root it.
However I have been reading elsewhere that perhaps a custom Lollipop ROM would help things work a bit smoother.
I have found a couple of pages which claim to outline a method taken from the pages of XDA (although I am so far unable to find it on here) and linking to file downloads that seem a bit suspect:
http://www.rom-lollipop.org/mp3-0/asus-transformer-pad-tf103c-6409.html
and here:
http://lollipop500.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/upgradeupdate-transformer-pad-tf103c-to.html
Can anyone please advise me if these are likely to be legitimate or otherwise?
Many Thanks!
Hi,
I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device and Lollipop. You can ask about it here,
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
I won't comment on files you found on other sites, other than saying flashing anything is always a risk that will be on your shoulders , on XDA or other sites.... And no one will take responsibility for your device. Flash at your own risk. If it makes you uncomfortable, then don't do it. That's all I can say. ?
Good luck!

Many thanks for the advice!
I will repost in your suggested section.
Cheers!
I flashed my alcatel 4030d. Unfortunately most likely the modem and the radio for the custom rom is not tailored for my region. Therefore I must restore the old modem.img in order to have 3g. However I don't know how to flash the stock rom modem.img. Any advice?
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Unfortunately it looks as though you've gone against the great advice you were given by one of my experienced colleagues in this thread, and now you're stuck in a situation where you may not be able to recover fully. I'm not sure why you'd do that, you came to XDA Assist looking for the advice of experts, and you were warned about what might happen.
There is no dedicated device section for this phone so coming across the stock modem is going to be difficult to say the least. I'd suggest you do your darndest to search for what you need, but your chances are pretty slim. You could always ask your question in the general q&a section if your searching doesn't prove to be fruitful.

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
Custom ROM's are specially tailored to the device, so you will need to find a developer who has the same one. However, I couldn't find anything of that make and model.
At any rate, create an account, so you can post in the rest of the site. Particularly, you will want to the [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly thread of the > General discussion > Questions and Answers forum. Be sure the share the same specs of the device as you did here, so they know what they are working with.
Hope this helps, and good luck!

Hello.
I would try the above links first. You may find others with the same tablet. Otherwise (and this has been done for other devices, even popular ones), you may need to give a device (same make and model) to an interested developer (as they don't like to build blindly).
Not a whole lot of options, but that is something you can tease out (if there are more) on the General Q&A forum.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Glad you are interested in helping out!
The > Android Development and Hacking > Android Apps and Games forum contains many apps, and a few questions regarding apps. But really, (it seems) most app questions will go through to the > Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum (the one I linked before - sort of a catch-all question forum for rare devices and not particular to a device at all).
With regards to the tablet, one with similar specs (read....chipset) can help a developer out as a starting point, but the ROM will still need to be customized for that device to avoid bootloop.
Time to release you out into the world! The Purpose of XDA Assist is to point those who need assistance in the right direction, not to be a helpdesk (which I am fine with providing a little extra information, like the above paragraph ). With the forums mentioned in this thread in hand, you should be off to a great start with XDA. Take care.
Hello everyone... grrreat idea of an area where one... newbie?, can ask questions & directions:
where can I go for an exhaustive guide, or even glossary/dictionary to mobile terms, acronyms, etc. There's lot of info in the wild, but a lot of confusion too
QUESTION 101: What can I use to copy the entire system from one phone, to dump on exact same, and what needs to be copied, system wise
QUESTION 202: Got phone somehow locked with cloudy, if try to factory reset get error "can't access"... meanwhile I downloaded a copy of system, but pc has mtp drivers issue.
ANY HELP or INSIGHT WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED
