[Completed] Recover data of Zif Tablet with damaged touchscreen - XDA Assist

Hello.
I hope someone can provide guidance with this problem.
First info about the problem:
1) Manfacturer: Zif
2) Model T722G
3) Android version: N/A
Problem description: The touchscreen is completely black an unresponsible after the tablet got water inside of it, already opened by some amateur so I don´t think it can be fixed.
Goal: Try to save the contents of the internal memory of the device (if possible), pictures, music, videos.
When the devices is plugged to PC it shows some activity, on the device manager, the device is recognized as Linux File-CD Gadget USB device, however no storage device is detected.
Additional details: Sometimes when connected it also shows MT6577 VCOM device for a brief period of time.
A couple of times it appeared as storage device (with a sort of camera logo I forgot the exact name) and two unit letters appeared on the storage manager, but it didn´t show on the file explorer. I tried a recomendation of uninstalling the driver, but then it never appeared again.
Any help would be appreciated.

[Completed] Retreive Files from Bootlooped ATM7029

A friend of mine that I gave a tablet to left it in a hot car and now it is bootlooping. She has a bunch of photos and documents that were written on the tablet that she would like to get back. The only trouble is that this tablet is one of those Chinese Action ATM7029 clones with little to no information on the internet about them. I figured out the combos to get into the stock recovery and do have access to SD cards to load recovery images onto it. ADB bridge / debugging was never turned on in the tablet so going into recovery does not create an ADB link. Here are the details:
Device: FastTouch 10" 8gb
Android: 4.2.2
Processor: ATM7029
Memory: 8gb flash / 1gb ram
ADB Enabled: No, USB Debugging was never turned on
Recovery: Accessible, but only stock version
SD Slot: yes, 8 and 32gb SD Cards are available to be used
Computers and Operating systems: I have a Mac with 10.8 with ADK 'installed', access to a windows 7 machine available
(Amazon link to the device: amazon_com/gp/product/B00ECKG0XK/)
Here is what I have done:
1) Got into recovery
2) Tried wiping cache and rebooting, still stuck
3) Tried ADB from a Mac machine, not recognized (ADB was not turned on in tablet)
4) Looked for any sort of recovery for the device. Sketchy possibles, no direct compatible found
5) Posted here.
Here is what I want to do:
1) Get the files off (if possible)
2) Get the device working, even if that requires wiping the files out (if possible)
Can anyone point me to a CWM or TWRP that would work with this device and let me form an ADB link to backup with? Even if the recovery ran out of ramdisk and didn't install that would be enough. I really want to get those files back out before doing dastardly things to the device. Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
Hi!
I can find nothing useful about that device on XDA. It is possible its suffered a hardware failure from the extreme heat and may be unrecoverable.
However, Please ask in the following general thread. Perhaps you will find some help.

Thanks for the advice. I wondered if I should post it there first. Will anyone be mad if I just copy paste that over?

[Completed] [Q] Nobis NB09 Root issues

First things first, I'm completely new to the world of android and tablets so please be gentle.
I bought 2 Nobis NB09, one for myself and one for my wife, we've had them for about 2 weeks now. We bought 32gb Ext. SD cards for them and away we went. A few days ago we started to realize that nothing was being saved to the ext sd cards and we were out of space on the tablets. So off to Google I go to find a solution. The only solution I could find was to root the tablets and here starts the problem. I tried the Kingo route, that didn't work saying no device was found, RootMaster the chinese program didnt work, VRoot has a Trojan virus attached so my antivirus wont allow me to install it, Framaroot also didn't work as my device is not compatible. The SDK route also doesn't work, as no device is found. Here is what I have observed, inbetween trying to not rip my hair out or bash my head against the wall. When I plugged my device into my laptop with USB debugging on, MTP USB device driver didn't install and neither did the Android driver. Trying to manually update Android in Device Manager it says i need to get the driver from the manufacturers website (which I cant find), I could not find the MTP USB device listed in my devices at all. I did find a site that has the drivers, supposedly, but I don't even know what I need exactly. So here are my questions:
Can I not root the tablets because these drivers are missing?
If I have to have these drivers does anyone know where I can find them, reliably?
Has anyone successfully rooted this tablet and if so how did you do it?
Tablet Info:
Model Num: NB09
Android Version: 4.1.1 (Jellybean)
Kernel Version: 3.0.8
Build Num: JR003C. 2013926. v003
Processor Speed: 1.50 GHz
Please help, all we want to be able to do is store stuff on the SD cards.

[Completed] CUBOT X6 dead screen, no USB debug enabled, Stock ROM, no root

Hi there.
I got my hands on this CUBOT X6 with broken screen. I can see the screen just fine BUT can't operate it from its bottom half approximately.
I would like to use this Android phone as a security camera to watch my garage, but without control, I'm stuck
What I'm trying to achieve here is to:
a) start up the phone and load a security app to it
b) control the phone via some "Android Control"-like app (without using the phone's broken screen)
c) set it up as a security camera and let it take pictures for me
Can anyone pls point me to some links here on the forum to solve my below listed problems ? ( and YES I've spend searching and reading this and few other forums for the last few hours and found just what is listed below)
So....
1. The phone was locked with swipe password with the posibility to control only the top three dots, the other ones are dead, NO USB Debugging available, Phone was set to CHARGE ONLY mode when connected to PC via USB - I managed to download stock ROM and Flashed it but....
2. It asks for a few details and requires you to click NEXT which is in the botom of the screen which is touch-dead. So i have searched and found this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2786395 But....
3. The phone is STOCK rom with absolutely no settings = no USB Debugging enabled and I do not know how to "modify the default.prop" http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...9&postcount=17 when the screen is dead and no usb debuging is enabled = Can't access the file system (or can I ? )
4. The phone is not detected by the Android Control app at all.
5. The recovery is in Chineese ! I tried translating it via Google Translate via pictures, but that did not shows/offers me the option for entering the command prompt (as advised in tread mentioned in point 3)
I'm too lame in this Android/Linux based sea, so if anyone is willing to help me here (if you think its possible to achive my goals a-c) please give me some step by step guide how to do that. (links to treads would be enough)
Thanks a lot !

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 and there is no forum specifically for the Cubot devices at this time but I see that you have already posted an identical message in the General Forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728355 which is a reasonable place to start where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you. I also see a number of references to your model from a site search at http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=cubot x6 which might be worth reviewing. Since your device is relatively uncommon, please be patient and give the experts there plenty of time to respond.
Good luck!

[Completed] Garmin usb mass storage not detetced

Hi
Can anyone please enlighten me on how to fix my Garmin 660 GPS
My issue started when I plugged the unit into the computer to perform a routine map update
I had been having some issues with a few of the media files that I play so I thought I would replace the MP3 files on the MicroSD card only this this I left it in the unit
I usually format the card and install new files separately from the unit but I formatted the card yet by some magical god like intervention the internal storage was also wiped.
I would suspect that Garmin would not make it this easy to delete important files as now the unit is not detected by any computer. The unit has deleted the maps.
It just starts and restarts over and over - I finally managed to get a hard reset to actually do something at all. Now and then it will bring up the software (no maps)and will Bluetooth but a hard reset every time to make this happen and does not always work - basically it a useless device.
None of the Garmin programs can see the GPS - I have backup of the device but no help - I have the factory software no help, the factory reset - partial but does not load the drivers - tried many Gamin driver update - took it back to supplier (GPS specialist) they said have to send to Garnin
I ride a bike and it is hard without the GPS to find my way around plus it include music and my phone plus it cost over $600
surely it is possible to access the root directory and replace what ever files it needs
My question is
How can I get the device to open a port to access the internal storage and load what ? to get the USB port functioning when it plugged into the computer.
I have basic computer knowledge - If anyone knows how to fix this issue please be kind enough to explain the method in easy to follow instructions and exactly what file or files I need and where I can obtain them and how to install them,
Can the port be forced to open -I tried a couple of methods from the net but didn't work for me
Please help if you can
Many thanks for reading and all suggestions would be much appreciated

[Completed] Tablet shows no commands, the usb depuration wasn't activated, pc won't recognize it

Well here I have a wonderful problem, I have two devices, according to the working one and cpu z:
4x ARM cortex A9 @1.42 ghz
revision r3p0
Rockchip RK3066
Model rk3188
Manufacturer Zowee
Android version 4.4.2
bootloader unknown
java vm Dalvik 1.6.0
kernel 3.0.36+ (eng.candy.20150403.110733)
The device that has the problem is the exact same model and all, however, after plugging it to the AC current, it tries to boot up but enters into recovery mode, none of the options work at all, looking into youtube I found out that I can extract the firmware, so far so good, but, I can't use that method because RKROMDUMPER and RKAndroid_v1.29 need the tablet to be plugged and there is the problem, the faulty tablet does not load in that mode while plugged to the computer.
So I was left with the option of getting into recovery mode and attempt to update from external storage, so far the only "Firmware" or "ROM" I've got is the one I extracted from the working tablet, I have, backup.img, boot.img, kernel.img and so on, the biggest one is the system.img which is near 6GB size.
I really don't know how to proceed from this point, do I have anything usable with those .img files? I have tried downloading a 4.4 Android rom, the recovery tried to load the files contained in the zip folder yet the loader showed messages such as, bad footer, or invalid image or always a denial message of whatever sort you may imagine.
So, I am stuck, reading further more I discovered that there are other methods or even other roms that can be loaded, but the Zowee guys have near to nothing to work with.
Could you please help me with this? Are the .img parts usable or in some way "joinable" like merge them into a single file or directory?
The device was not rooted, so I am left with only the chance of fresh installing from sd card and nothing else.
Thanks in advance.
