Fantastic....Now how about the 4.0.4 ROM for TB1082B FID:HN?????
Good news I guess
I did follow the instruction and did get Android 4.0.4 on my Zeki TB782B tablet. I don't see much difference at the moment but maybe using it for a little bet maybe I will see what the difference is...just using it for a couple of minutes it does seem maybe a little smoother perhaps.
Now that I've installed it, the volume buttons along the bottom of the screen disappear and reappear every so often, but that's minor. Everything else seems to be working fine.
I did find out that my directv app does not seem to work on the 4.0.4 version.

Works!
Works great! Thanks!
Dear team.
good afternoon.
I bought a ZEKI TB1082B tablet FID:HN, and i tried to install google apps, by using this method showed
Just after i tried, my deviced got "bricked" its stock in white screem,
i realized the method but didnt know it only worked for FID:BN Models.
I am asking for your help, hoping maybe you could provide a clean firmware compatible with my device or some update.zip for my device, so i could be able to install it via recovery.
i would really appreciate any help or answer that you could provide.
Thanks in advance..

Try to press the Vol+ and the power switch to see if you can go to the recovery page.
If yes, it can be unbricked. Otherwise you need to reflash the ROM.

Rooting
Download the utoo-root-signed.zip from here and copy it to a microSD card (do NOT extract it)
Charge up the battery in your Karbonn ST-8_version2, Power Off and remove the charger cable.
Insert the microSD card into your tablet
Get into Recovery mode( Power+volume down ) .
In the recovery you can move with the Volume down button, you can select with Power or Volume up
Select the apply update from EXT option
Select the utoo-root-signed.zip, this will install the package
Wait for the update to finish
Select reboot system now
This is a tried and tested method and has worked for everyone till now.

Lag-free Tweak
Install SetCPU app
Download the file Setcpu.txt from here
Paste it into the root of your SD Card
Open SetCPU, first change the governor from "conservative" to "performance2"(This is the most important thing)
Click on options button(three dots) and then click Device Selection
Select Custom Frequencies
Now Set Min frequency to 48 MHz and Max frequency to anything according to your preference(Now you'll have the choice of setting the frequency upto 1.5 GHz)
Note:
When you wan't to conserve more battery lower the Max Frequency(while browsing or listening to music maybe) and when playing HD games up the Max Frequency(Most games will run perfectly with even 1200 MHz)
48MHz of Min frequency will give more battery in in standby mode.
Try not to Clock the CPU above 1.2 GHz for a long time as it could cause heat issues. The governor itself should speedup everything for you.
Low Internal Memory
The fact that our devices have only 1.51 GB of Internal Storage limits the capabilities of our devices. Especially with HD Games.
I recommend using GL2SD for games at the moment.
Get used to using the app, its pretty easy..

Ok guys,This the first and last time I am posting this....
To unbrick ur tab......
1. Post what u did
2. What is wrong with the tablet according to your understanding
If you want to be helped the above two points really matter........
3. See this link
4. All info about unbricking various types of bricks can be found on the thread....
5. Also i would suggest you go through the thread fully and understand every detail
6. Another alternative for you guys would be Karbonn service center, But I feel it is useless as they take minimum 30-45 days to repair things
7. The method i mentioned is the first one,sdcard one
At this moment we have an experimental unbrick package with us thanks to developer @fuser-invent
This package is to be used in the STEP 3 of SOFT BRICK UNBRICK SDCARD method
Step 3
This only works if the first method completed far enough to allow you into the Stock Recovery or if the Alternative Methods worked and you now need to install the correct firmware.
0. Restore your SD card back to normal capacity with the SD Formatter software. This can take a long time, be patient. Choose the following options:
- FORMAT TYPE -> FULL (Overwrite)
- FORMAT SIZE ADJUSTMENT -> ON
1. Get THIS firmware package
2. Download the above zip extract the above zip to the root of an empty sdcard( less than 2gb ). It should look like this all four files should be in the root of the sdcard.
3. Just FYI, the zip folder among those four files is the stock rom ( it has boot.img,bootloder.img,system,recovery.img,aml_logo.img,logo.img )
Also this package is a recovery package for soft bricks....
4. Put the sdcard in your tablet
5. Hold down the Power and Vol - buttons to enter the Stock Recovery
6. Flash your firmware package and reboot the tablet.
7. If it worked, either plug your tablet into the computer and use USB mode or shut down your tablet and remove the SD card, then remove the "u-boot.bin" and "uImage_recovery" files from your SD card.
8. Boot back into recovery and make sure that the firmware package correctly installed the Stock Recovery on your device.
Your tablet is now back to it's original Factory Settings.
6. For furthur assistance see this link
7. If you are successful plz report back...........it will help others

As 2012katas said, it's very important to go to the thread he links in #6. Yes, it is a HUGE thread, but it is detailed for a reason. 99% of your questions will be answered in that thread.
For example, the thread clearly says to use the ELF2 rescue image and the USB image tool to prepare your card first, then delete the ELF2 files from it and replace them with the files for your tablet. It also says that if that doesn't work you can try the SD Formatter software with my suggested settings to try and prep your card. I have no idea if the package will work until someone tries it the correct way and reports back.
On another note. If it doesn't work the first time, try to delete the u-boot.bin file only and then try again. Also mentioned in the thread, some people need to press and hold the power and vol- buttons and then when the tablet starts lighting up, start pressing the power button repeatedly, but that is rare.
As for the people with deep bricked tablets (showing the M3/M6 chip), you don't have anything to loose at this point so you best bet is to download the ST10_20121129.zip package, remove the patch.zip and update.zip, put the ST8 v2 firmware package zip I made in that folder, edit the config_progress.xml so the firmware package name is correct and no longer called update.zip, delete the part for the patch.zip, renumber the remaining steps, zip the whole thing back up and load it into the AML USB Burning software.
That might work or it might not work. You have to intelligently experiment because there is no official release for the tablet. Also you will notice that in the unbricking thread I say that if you can get the tablet showing some signs of life after the M3/M6 chip deep brick, you can then move to the SD card method. So if the usb_spl.bin and u-boot-orig.bin for the ST10 work with the ST8 to at least get the tablet out of M3/M6 mode then you could use the SD card method.
Lastly, to 2012katas, I'm rarely on XDA so if you have more questions, I see them more often on DragonDevs. You seem into this Dev stuff and smart, so feel free to get in touch to troubleshoot more.
Awesome TAB
I love this tab...
Runs Asphalt 8 flawless on 1.5ghz OC'ed.............totally awesome no lags..
btw OC'ed for battery=100% to battery=6%
tablet heats up a little on back side...........but okay for gaming........
Hi All,
I accidentally flashed TWRP recovery before routing. On Karbon Smart tab 8 Ver 2
Now, I can't do any thing...
I tried factory reset it not working.
Also failed to get into fastboot mode...
Need help to go back and flash stock recovery..
if anyone have all he junks that is pre-installed in the tab, please upload.
The manufacture for my tablet an irulu x7 running 4.4.2 posted an update that is a zip file containing PhoenixCard & and img file with instructions on how to use it to format the sd card. I followed all of the directions and it says that it finished. The SD card still appears to have no files in windows, when I put the sd card into my tablet and boot up it is supposed to automatically start the install of the new rom (don't have to go into recovery). Of course it does nothing and just boots up normally.
So is there something else I can do another program to get the img onto the SD card they way it should be, or another way to install the img file to the tablet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you still have the rom for this tablet may I have it The tablet my family owns was rooted by me and one of them uninstalled system apps to free up space wihtout knowledge of what they were doing.
I can go online, but cannot use google play or my volume buttons or even open my downloads app, let alone the errors googleplay and googleplay services keep popping up every 5 seconds and my keyboard has to be re-installed every time I boot up.
I also get a com.google.gms as well as google.gapps error every opnce in a while. I am hoping this rom if you have it will fix it.

The link below is a quick guide anyone with an iRulu tablet that is stuck. Please pay it toward. It took me a month to figure out this shizzel.

Chiseled brail into stone translated via N5
CAT has not yet managed to put official stock images or the kernel source code available - even for their oldest phones (even though they are required to)... so here's at least a beginning.
Every firmware archive contains the four partitions UBOOT, BOOTIMG, RECOVERY and ANDROID (/system). These are flashable using spFlashTool, a howto is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/howto-firmware-flashing-cat-b15q-t2989627.
Please note that these firmware files were dumped from an EMEA B15Q, dual-sim - there are reports of other models being available under the B15Q model name. In doubt, always make a full backup using spFlashTool's readback mode before flashing one of these. (You should be doing these anyway before every firmware upgrade, CAT doesn't test stuff like compatibility with root!)
Credits for the scatter file go to bigal1337. Credits for spFlashTool and the driver package go to Russian website mtk2000.ucoz.ru.

spFlashTool: http://mtk2000.ucoz.ru/down12/SP_Flash_Tool_exe_windows_v5.1420.00.rar
Do note that the drivers appear to be modified Google drivers and thus have no digital signature; you will need a 32-bit system to use them.
Flash mode needed for spFlashTool is achieved by removing the battery, starting the flash/readback in spFlashTool and then plugging in the USB cable. You may put in the battery afterwards.
The recovery, fastboot and factory test methods are entered by shutting down the phone and then:
recovery mode: press power + volup for 2 seconds, then release power, release volup as soon as recovery has booted
fastboot mode: press power + center for 2 seconds, then release power, release volup as soon as recovery has booted
test mode: press power + voldn for 2 seconds, then release power, release volup as soon as recovery has booted
In case that a B15Q or general CAT board is opened (for the B15, B15Q and the flagship S50), I request that this thread is moved into its rightful place. And in case anyone wants to help me with a CyanogenMod port, please PM me.
CWM Recovery
Using mtkdroidtools, I have built a CWM Recovery image to be flashed with spflashtool, all based on 1.022 firmware. There are two variants:
using stock Mediatek USB IDs: https://mega.co.nz/#!FRxxiRSC!EN5gORcYPtFONlH3V8-Yco3_w9RGhE8jevicedlT2kI
using Samsung USB IDs: https://mega.co.nz/#!8MowBZCJ!fhs-mXpGZR36g9JJh3IONIlOKBHIktFBDIrpynlK84M
The difference between them is that recovery #1 uses the same Mediatek USB id's as the stock image (and thus requires the Mediatek drivers in Windows, which sucks because these are not signed), and recovery #2 uses the USB IDs from a Samsung tablet - so you need the Samsung ADB driver instead, which is digitally signed and far more stable than the Mediatek.
Samsung USB ID fix
See above for the reason; the boot.img with Samsung USB IDs is at:
1.022: https://mega.co.nz/#!gcREQJKD!FCrxl9-PWSWM0_2Nh9D1KeA-zFV4nS9dmd6zjVnqPLc
Hybrid SD Card
And the CWM Recovery + boot.img for those who want to try out the "hybrid SD card" from http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/howto-external-sd-card-internal-storage-t2989650, the two images of 1.022 are here:

Great to hear someone was crazy enough to replicate my hack But I strongly advise you to keep off OTA updates with the hack enabled.

With or without the SD hack? Try putting the SD card into a Windows machine, chkdsk the fat32 partition. Then plug it into a linux machine and run e2fsck on the data partition.

I tried the sd hack. There was a problem with my sd card partitions... but i reformated it with partition magic and now it works like a charm. No lag or anything.
Better than i was thinking
Greatings!
after one week
OKAY,
after one week of usage my phone became laggy and unstable.
Maybe this is because of my sd card but.... its 10class, i dont know
So i reflashed with the original partitions and now its fast and stable
Custom Rom
Will there be any possibility to create a Lollipop rom for this device?
proximity sensor problem
Do someone have the problem with the proximity seonsor that i have? There is a screen turning on immediately after turning of when the phone is placed next to my head when i am calling. This leads to a lot of changes in settings and everything that my face is changed durring the phone call.
I tried a lot of apps from play store that "fix" the problem but... they work not on 100% proper.
The sensor is working at 100% i have checked it already.
Please give me suggestions because its very annoing!!

I had the same problem. CAT support told me to reset the phone to factory. I tried a lot of other things but only the factory reset helped me. My sensor was also working correctly, I also tried several Apps to chack this.
Give it a try. I know it's a lot of work, but it was (in my case) worth it. I changed the time an date settings with my face which lead to missed alarms and oversleeping

CAT B15 help
Hi guys, i'm sorry i have to ask this in this forum but i've been asking for a couple of months now, and got no answer. I have a CAT B15 (not the B15Q). It is single sim version (IMEI write on the back) and i managed to do plenty of things in it. I swapped memory and worked fine, and even i installed a Dual Sim android rom and i managed to use the secondary Sim bay in it (that was tapped with a plastic fake sim) and used the phone with 2 sims for like 2 weeks. Then i started to play with deodex and build.prop and softbricked the phone, but it was piece of cake since it is easy to unbrick. The problem was that i wrongly flashed the phone with scatter file, and flashed all partitions in it, EBR1, MBR, UBOOT, etc, etc. The result was a non-working dual SIM phone. Everything works, but the SIMS, it does not detect any SIMs in it, in any of the SIM bays, and the IMEIs are wrong numbered. I did no buckup of the phone so i'm pretty screwed. I've been asking for someone to upload the EMEA_SS or US_SS ROM for the CAT B15, but nobody responded. I thaught maybe the CAT B15Q has a similar software/bands flashing partitions, but that i leave to you for answer. Anyway, if any of you has the possibility of taking the images of a single sim CAT B15 it would save me this awesome phone for me. I'm also willing to give a 20GB account of ownCloud server for 1-year free of charge if storage space is needed, no problem. This are the links i've been searching and asking.

Hallo my friend,
i had the same problem and that was so anoyng... so i went back to the shop where i bought my phone and told them about the problem.
After one week they called me and my phone was with changed whole display with everything inside and now i have working proximity sensor
So... i suggest you to go back to the store and tell them about your problem !
All the best!!
you can root with A5C customizer R02
include original recovery package
you can recover original partition with `a5c_original_6.01.04.B5` (qfil in edl mode)
and apply TF package (hisense SD card updater)
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=19DB5749F1E9151C!5935&authkey=!AJ5IfzAYRv4ZAts&e=0ihAAA
system version should same (version is folder name) or bricked.
install method same and gapps can download below link.
[a5 root & gapps ]
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/hisense-a5-root-gapps-customizer-t4097951
So this works just as easy as with the A5?
Just curious because I've done it on the A5 and am thinking of getting an A5C seeing no luck with getting Google on the Pro or Pro CC yet.
So I got the A5C. Can confirm this works.
Are there newer versions around @joygram?
I bricked the A5C. Anyone knows how can I get the ROM to flash without a Chinese number from the hinsensfans forums thread with this title?

I upload the Stock ROM with OneDrive, but I can't post the link (XDA policy, I'm new on xda).
I use it to upgrade an Hisense A5 (b/w) in an Hisense A5C (color).
Hardware model is the same: HLTE202N.
Also I think it's possible to use this software to do a factory reset on a smartphone that is already an A5C.

Here the Upgrade method:
Use T card to upgrade.
(1) precautions for upgrade:
1. The upgrade operation will clear all non-factory preset user information in the mobile phone. Please transfer important information in advance.
2. Be sure to ensure that the battery is sufficient. It is recommended that the battery should have at least 50% of the battery to avoid power interruption during the upgrade process, resulting in upgrade failure.
(2) preparation before upgrading T card:
1. Prepare a TF card, first format the TF card into FAT format;
2. Decompress the downloaded software version (generally a compressed package, which is divided into multiple compressed subpackages), and copy the obtained folder named "HLTE202N_TF" to the root directory of the TF card;
3. Put the TF card into the mobile phone and put the battery into the mobile phone. Confirm that the battery power is more than 50%, if the battery power is low, please charge first;
(3) T-card upgrade process
1. Press and hold the "volume +" and "volume-" side keys at the same time, and then press the power-on key. The mobile phone will automatically enter the T-card upgrade mode to upgrade. If the mobile phone does not enter the T-card upgrade mode, repeat this operation after shutdown.
2. Wait about 5 minutes for the upgrade to end. A message indicating successful upgrade will be displayed.
3. Restart according to the prompt after the upgrade is successful. If there is no such prompt, press the power-on key for more than 20 seconds to restart the machine. After the upgrade, it takes a long time to restart the machine for the first time, which is several times of the normal startup time, please wait patiently.
Ok. After getting my hands on the file from the upper link, and after a flawless flash through a micro sd card (8gb at least) i made a torrent file for the file. At the momment only my computer is seeding it so slow download, but if others care to download and seed, the file can be reachable easily.
Here is a small dropbox link to the torrent file, so you can download using a torrent client from my pc directly.
HLTE202N_L1657.6.01.04.B5.zip.torrent

After flashing this rom, the software would find some upgrades (maybe two or three upgrades, one after another) so you will get to a higher version with more control on the e-ink refresh rate.
I accidentally updated Magisk on my A5C and it's bricked.
With TF card method the phone show me a black screen with these chinese and english message:

Please long press the power button to restart)

I updated Magisk and it works fine.
Can I trouble you for a new version that functions with 6.07.02 firmware? The updated screen controls in the new firmware are really useful and it's a shame that I have to choose between gapps and the new software.
Can someone help me?
I am not able to flash the TF Card update to restore my Hisense A5C. I always get failed to parse bin head.

I already tried different SD Cards. I have a working Google Version Rom which I can flash with MiFlash. But when I flash the "Original" vbmeta and boot from the root package and then try TF Card update. I always get this error.
