Anyone got this tab yet? I received my Auxus CoreX2 couple of days back. Trying to find ways to root the device. Currently stuck at finding USB drivers for the tab. When you connect the Tab to PC, it allows mounting storage as USB drive (which means no ADB access). If anyone has any inputs on things I should try, please share.
Update: Root successful. Apologies for the delay, but the tutorial is coming very soon. Stay tuned.
Update 2: Tutorial will go live on 1st February by the end of the day. In the meanwhile another rooting method posted by someone else seems to be working on both CoreX2 as well as CoreX4
Update 3: Firmware update instructions added
Update 4: Firmware update instructions for CoreX4 added
*******************************************************************************************************************************************************
Rooting Options:
Method 1: Courtesy user @Kudremukh. It seems to be working on CoreX4 as well (CoreX2 is confirmed).
Finally I am able to root my Auxus Core X2 3G Tab. For this I first checked the chipset details of tab. I found It is Rock Chip. After searching on net I found 2 links on the web on rooting rockchip based tab rooting

Procedure of rooting:-
1. go to first link and download the App ( it is a chinees app) mentioned in the link
2. Enable USB debug mode on your tab
3. Lauch the application you just downloaded and connect tab to pc
4. if your device not recognised when connected to PC, then you download and install "chinees android manager" application from the second link.
5. If your device recognised then click on " ROOT" button ( actually it is not button, it is a link with chinees language). You can see the image in the second link.
6. Thats it YOUR DEVICE IS NOW ROOTED.
7. In my case I tried twice the same procedure to get root acces.
8. sorry I forgot to mention that, after process is over a Supervu icon will be created in your tab.
9. click it and get access
10. I am not very fluent in english. So if there is any problems in my writing, please excuse

Method 2: Rooting using ADB
Posted by user skv_vlr_mech
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37410666
This is almost the same method I used for rooting. I can confirm that this will work 100%.
*******************************************************************************************************************************************************
Instructions to update firmware on CoreX2 3G (Tested on Windows 7, not working on Windows 8)
1. Switch-off the tablet and make sure the tablet sufficiently charged (I would suggest 50% charge as minimum)
2. Connect the USB cable to tablet (But don't connect it to PC)
3. Press and hold the HOME button (triangular) on the tablet and simultaneously connect the other end of USB cable to PC.
4. Your PC will show "Found new hardware" and it will search for driver. Drivers are located in the folder "Drivers". Let windows search for drivers in the "Drivers" folder and allow it is install drivers even if it complains about the drivers not being digitally signed.
5. If you don't get "new hardware" notification on your PC, try the following:
a. Shutdown the tablet by pressing and holding power button for 10 seconds.
b. Connect the USB cable to PC (don't connect the other end of the cable to tablet yet).
c. Press and Hold the Home button on tablet and simultaneously insert cable in the tablet.
d. You should now see "new hardware found" wizard on Windows.
4. Open the file "CoreX2-3G-Tool.exe". If the drivers were successfully installed, a green box will appear under "Connected Devices". If no green box comes up, restart your PC and follow the entire procedure to install drivers again.
6. Click "Upgrade" button and the process will start automatically.
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT press Cancel or Disconnect the Tablet from PC during the upgrade process as it will render your tablet un-bootable and useless.

CoreX4 upgrade instructions (courtesy shanmukha24)
"To reinstall the firmware, download the below file and copy the contents of the ZIP file to a formatted MircoSD card ( Note: you need to unzip the files and put only those files in the formatted MicroSd card but not the folder or zipped file).
http://www.iberry.asia/firmware/CoreX4-3G.zip
Turn-off your tablet PC, insert the MicroSD and then press and hold the 'Volume -' button and the power button to reinstall the firmware.
Once the firmware update is complete, the tablet PC will turn-OFF. Press and hold the power button to turn-ON your tablet PC and complete the firmware update." (courtesy: Iberry India technical support team)
So don't panic; simply, use this procedure and enjoy

Solution to CoreX4 stuck in boot-loop (courtesy: ajayap.hk)
Hello,
In your update 4 on first post, I noticed you have provide a quote as to how to correct if things go wrong. I request you to kindly add a line about how to turn the tab off.
I did the following,
1. Tried by inserting the sd card with the stock firmware and then pressing the hidden button b/w the sd card and sim card slots and the power and volume down ("V-") button simultaneously prompting it to re-install my firmware.
2. This was the only way by which I could re-install as you cant switch off this tab when its stuck in boot loop.

It is certainly not the most responsive touch panel but I don't have any problems you mentioned. Try updating the firmware that is available on iBerry website.
I will be posting tutorial on how to root very soon.

My Dad just bought a AUXUS CoreX4 3G. Am waiting eagerly to root it and also wanted to install JB. I see some other devices of iBerry have JB installed on them but this one has ICS. Also this device CoreX4 3G is having problems with the Phone/Mobile part of it. The calls are not audible when on speaker mode even on full volume. and if we donot switch on the Data access over mobile network, strangely it doesnot connect to the mobile network.
Hoping if i Install a JB of some custom rom it will help improve the touch sensitivity and mobile network access control.

Amazing, Thank you dude. I am able to root my corex4 with this method. Now I am waiting for any custom JB rom to flash.
Latest firmware
Iberry has uploaded firmware on their website, but when i check from my tab for update in settings it shows you have latest firmware. Is there any change or patch in firmware they uploaded in website or just the same copy.

It is CoreX4 right? I am going to try this method and I want to make sure it is not a spelling mistake.
BTW, I am having a strange problem with the tablet. If charging is being done, regardless of how, the screen behaves very strangely. It registers touch input at random places automatically. I tried the charger included with the tablet, usb power charging, usb system charging. All behave in the same manner. This only happens when you have the tablet flatly grounded on a surface. If you lift the tablet in your hands, the problem goes away.
Can somebody confirm? I want to know that is this an issue with only my tablet or is a problem found across the board.
Update:
I called iBerry customer care and the guy on the phone confirmed that this is indeed a problem plagueing these tablets. He was giving me all kind of lame reasons, like "the battery is huge, it needs more power", "it might be happening because of voltage fluctuations", "it has ips screen, so power surges while charging can cause the issue". I have a iPad2 too so I quelled all his excuses.
So it seems this issue is a known issue with the tablet. The only way to use your tablet while charging is to keep it in your hands. Otherwise the performance of the tablet is quite impressive.
Happy to know
FIRST SWITCH OFF AND ON YOUR DEVICE AND PLUG IN YOUR CHARGER TO electric socket and 2nd insert the charger pin into your female charging port on your tablet and check it it will slove your malfunction .

Maybe that your download is good, but could you be more clear, please.
In fact, you don't say nothing about this download zipfile.
We understand that something about usb drivers, but for which device (s).
Can you tell us more...
And we cannot use your download link which is useless
Thanks in advance

Hello,
So i noticed alot of people having trouble finding this ROM with the ZET6223/WTA drivers, here is a quick guide and a download link (had to remove the original on another topic as it was being shared on various forums with no link back) please if you share this link it back to xda!
**This guide asumes you know how to use adb and you have the correct usb drivers, also please note this is for the 9'inch version but may work on the 7, please reply to thread with details if it does**
GUIDE: Step.1: Once downloaded extract it to desktop, then open live suit (i personally used version 1.09), select option no on the update wizard, then click select image, locate the image extracted from the download, keep this live suit window open whilst you perform step 2.
Step.2: While you're tablet is powered off fully (there will be no lights) connect it to the usb port on you're laptop/desktop, the tablet will automatically attempt to start up, whilst still keeping the tablet connected via usb press and hold the power button on it for around 6 seconds until it powers off again, (you may see a red light to indicate its charging this is normal) now that the tablet is off press and hold the volume up key and quickly tap the power button 6 times, wait until you see a box popup on you're desktop/laptop on live suit saying to format the tablet, then release the volume button and proceed to pressing yes to format the tablet via the live suit window, it will then preform the flashing and should take anywhere from 2 to 6 minutes, once it has completed the tablet will boot up normally, disconnect the usb cable.
Hopefully if you followed this correctly and used the provided firmware you're tablet should function as intended. If you get stuck or require a talk through it including how to get adb/live suit ect feel free to skype me on id: chunk1189.

Hey guys at the moment the most stable ROM for A850 that can move apps to SD is S121 by linerty.
Please see the tutorial by me below. Hope it can help. Facing problem can PM me. I don't mind help as there's a saying "Sharing is caring"
Step on how to flash your Lenovo A850 to S121 ROM and to have external storage option so you can move your apps to SD. Please follow the steps accordingly. I'm not responsible if there's any damage to your phone during the flashing process.
Please download the files as below:
1) A850 S121 ROM that inudes with SP flashtool.exe:
http://www.mediafire.com/?dtmqugg4c1guf8k
2) USB driver:
http://www.mediafire.com/?kkj0jqu3b5wkm87
Here we go:
1) Power off your phone and dismantle your rear case to take out the battery.
2) Before you plug in your phone via USB please go to "Device Manager" by right click My Computer and click "Device Manager" tab.
3) Stay at the "Device Manager" page and this must be done real quick. Connect the USB to your phone and PC and you'll see a new device pop out by the name of "MTKxxxxx/Mediatekxxxx". Right click and click "Update driver".
4) Choose the driving according to your Windows version. Ex: Windows Vista. Click the file and click next to install. After you've successfully installed the USB driver, unplug the USB cable from the phone.
Flashing process:
1) Open the "SP Flashtool.exe" file.
2) Under the scatter loader tab click it and double click the "MTKxxx file"
3) Above that tick the DA LL
4) Press firmware upgrade and wait 5-10 seconds then plug in the phone.
5) The process will takes around 5minutes plus. Wait till a "green circle" appear that means you've successfully flash your device. Be patient and wait around 1 more minute.
6) Disconnect the USB cable, insert back the battery and the case.
7) Turn ON the unit and for first time load will be slightly longer than expected. Wait till a page pops out and you are ready to set your phone according to your Country and Language.
8) Before you download anything, go to storage setting and set the default write disk to "External Storage"
9) Your phone will restart and now it's the time for your to download whatever you want.
Enjoy and hope my tutorial helps.
Good morning. I wanted to know, please, if one of the languages of this ROM is the Italian and known bugs. Camera, GPS, Flash and other hardware works fine. thanks
As for now everything run smoothly.

a850 problem after flashing
kickurasss said:
Hey guys at the moment the most stable ROM for A850 that can move apps to SD is S121 by linerty.
Please see the tutorial by me below. Hope it can help. Facing problem can PM me. I don't mind help as there's a saying "Sharing is caring"
Step on how to flash your Lenovo A850 to S121 ROM and to have external storage option so you can move your apps to SD. Please follow the steps accordingly. I'm not responsible if there's any damage to your phone during the flashing process.
Please download the files as below:
1) A850 S121 ROM that inudes with SP flashtool.exe:
http://www.mediafire.com/?dtmqugg4c1guf8k
2) USB driver:
http://www.mediafire.com/?kkj0jqu3b5wkm87
Here we go:
1) Power off your phone and dismantle your rear case to take out the battery.
2) Before you plug in your phone via USB please go to "Device Manager" by right click My Computer and click "Device Manager" tab.
3) Stay at the "Device Manager" page and this must be done real quick. Connect the USB to your phone and PC and you'll see a new device pop out by the name of "MTKxxxxx/Mediatekxxxx". Right click and click "Update driver".
4) Choose the driving according to your Windows version. Ex: Windows Vista. Click the file and click next to install. After you've successfully installed the USB driver, unplug the USB cable from the phone.
Flashing process:
1) Open the "SP Flashtool.exe" file.
2) Under the scatter loader tab click it and double click the "MTKxxx file"
3) Above that tick the DA LL
4) Press firmware upgrade and wait 5-10 seconds then plug in the phone.
5) The process will takes around 5minutes plus. Wait till a "green circle" appear that means you've successfully flash your device. Be patient and wait around 1 more minute.
6) Disconnect the USB cable, insert back the battery and the case.
7) Turn ON the unit and for first time load will be slightly longer than expected. Wait till a page pops out and you are ready to set your phone according to your Country and Language.
8) Before you download anything, go to storage setting and set the default write disk to "External Storage"
9) Your phone will restart and now it's the time for your to download whatever you want.
Enjoy and hope my tutorial helps.

The best ROMs are "s123 from linerty" and the ported MIUI. You can find linerty's ROM in needrom.com and the MIUI in the MIUI forum.

Need preloader.bin file to unbrick my A850
Hello,
May I ask anyone here a favor please?, I just bricked my Lenovo A850 after flashing a ROM I download from needrom. and it was A850_S128_130929. Now my device is totally dead, can't power on, can't enter recovery / bootloader. But, fortunately, it still can communicate with PC as Mediatek Preloader, Mediatek DA
Thread here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/len...ashing-rom-t3322646/post65511563#post65511563
Thus, I would like to ask anyone who already download this S121 ROM can share the 'Preloader.bin' file located in ROM folders.:highfive: ( zip it > upload to your cloud storage > share the link )
*If this preloader.bin work with my device, I will download all the ROM files.
Found some info in several threads I googled, it won't turning power ON because a corrupted 'preloader.bin' been flashed. So I have to flash this single file using SP flash tools. Hope it will fix. :angel:
Many thanks!
Thank you ×1000 (very much) ??
how to update usb driver on windows xp? when i connect my phone to pc there is nothing up.. only usb not recognize.
Good day!
I am posting here in the hope it helps someone. If I am posting in the wrong place or doing something else wrong please do let me know.
I am going to post some links & some text instructions but will explain the outline first.
I own a Lenovo A8-5500-H tablet, lenovo H variants according to the internet are made with the same hardware as their HV varients but a different ROM. H's have 3g data & wifi but not voice calling, HV's have 3d data & wifi & voice calling. After some googling & translating from Russian I discovered the ROM for the H but not the HV, then a few days ago the HV was posted - with the most dreadful instructions in Russian that translated poorly & still involved some faffing around. Anywho I can confirm that you can load the HV rom onto the H and get the 3g calls and all the other pre installed lenovo stuff. The phone is not rooted. The only advantage is that the H is about £50 less than the HV to purchase.
I have permission of the author to share his program and the rom. My links are to the russian lenovo forum where you may have to register.
After the links I will put my own instructions (within this post) which are much easier to follow than russian ones. Again I hope this helps someone.
http://lenovo-forums.ru/files/file/582-lenovo-a8-a5500-a5500hv-a442-000-017-140709-row-call/ this is th a8-5500-hv rom.
http://lenovo-forums.ru/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_id=15372 this is the lenovo driver pack - you need to use this & not windows own.
http://lenovo-forums.ru/files/file/549-%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%88%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%BA%D0%B0-lenovo-a8-%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B4%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B8%D0%B4-442-a5500h-a442-000-013-140526-row/ this is the original ROM incase you make a mistake and need to start again.
NOT FOR USE ON THE -F VARIANT.
ENGLISH INSTRUCTIONS
This is not a direct translation. This provides directions for installing the Lenovo A8-5500-HV Rom onto a Lenovo A8-5500-H device for the perpose of making 3g calls. I have tested this function and method and verify that it works.
However I take no responsibility for you or you device.
Apparently with Lenovo wherever they have a H & HV variant the hardware is the same and the ROMs interchangeable. I have not verified this.
Lets go!
1. Don't Panic. If it doesn't work, you should not have bricked your device, just reload the original ROM.
2. Equipment needed - USB lead to attach device to PC / laptop, preferably the original but another powered lead will do the job ... Your tablet ... a laptop or PC ....
3. Files needed .. Original rom for if you go wrong, called A5500H_A442_000_013_140526_ROW at the time of writing. The new Rom called A5500HV_A442_000_017_140709_ROW, the drivers called LenovoUsbDriver_autorun_1.0.10
4. Time, less than an hour. Maybe half that time.
Apparently 99% of lenovo phones & tablets use the same driver. If yours doesn't I may be able to help but I may not.
(Potential problems:
Windows XP can get confused. You may need to install windows media player 11.)
5. On the PC / Laptop
Unzip the driver file and run it.
6.Unzip the new rom.
7. Have device manager open. You want the tablet to show as MediaTek Preloader USB VCOM port (COM44) or some variant of this. so on Windows 7 or 8 install the divers (without the tablet plugged in).
8. Ensure your tablet is TURNED OFF (seriously this is not a typo) and plug it in. If you the the meditek stuff all well and good. If not you have to be QUICK
9. In the 2 seconds that the device manager says unknown device, right click on it and update driver (pointing the to previously unzipped driver files).
10. Remove the tablet from the laptop / PC
11. Run Flash_tool.exe which is part of the unzipped rom.
12. Click on scatter loading.
13. Go to the folder target_bin and select the file MT6582_scatter_LVP5-3G-ROW-Voice.1.017.01
14. Tick the box called DA-DL with all Checksum (again dont panic if you forget - it just wont work & you have to try again)
15. Click button called Upgrade firmware.
16. Plug in the still powered off tablet. there will be some flashing. If not check the tablet to make sure it's not doing anything, unplug phone, wait a minute and start again.
17. When you see a bright green circle it is complete.
18. You may now unplug your tablet and turn it on.
If you are using the software with another lenovo device, if the battery is removable please do so before plugging into the PC / Laptop.
All ROM & software work was by Steaven on the Lenovo Forum. Google translate, common sense, guesswork and trial and error provided by MSU in order to provide English directions that make sense.

I got stuck at this point. But I know why. Win7 x64 bit system and I can only install signed drivers! None of these drivers have a digital signature.
I shall go dig out an old XP system I have and see how it goes.
Are we absolutely certain that regular windows drivers will not do for this process?
And has anyone rooted one of theses yet? And has anyone worked out how people can move application data (Maps for Navfree I am thinking of) from the internal memory to an SD Card?
Many thanks for your info on this.
Des. . .
If you go into the settings you can select 'allow unsigned drivers' , or go through the device manager and do the driver that way, or just click 'continue anyway' I have w7x64 and this worked fine....
I've not rooted it yet. But I don't need to now I have phone calls.
It lets me install to SD card as in the settings on the lab I selected sd card as my main storage point...there are a few apps however that wont flag up the option.
I hope some of the above helps.
Hi,
I did find This topic in my travels as it seemed that all the drivers in the download you mentioned were for "Lenovo" this or that.
For the moment I have that installed and the device flashes to a point and then seems to stop...
Or maybe I'm impatient..
Des. . .
Hi,
Ahhh... Sneaky tablet..
So, when plugging in the USB I noticed that it would "semi-start and show a power/charge indicator. This would disappear after a minute and all would go dark. So whilst I thought the tablet was off, it wasn't. I thought about this for a moment and then pressed and held the power button. That did turn it off for real.
I also noticed that the ROM updated also became much more agitated and active, with a light green bar at the bottom actually seeming to do the ROM update.
And yes, with the driver I linked to and really powering off once plugged in and then clicking the "Update ROM" button all was updated.
Can I just confirm, does your Lenovo have GPS as well?

That says "What month of the year the third in a row" according to google!
Bing is less cryptic: "What month in year third". So March should be the answer.
I managed to register, eventually. Do make sure to check the two last boxes, one is for Admin emails and the other is to accept the terms and conditions.

Hi Des
I am experiencing the same problem with powering the device completely off. Could you go step by step on how you are doing this? Like, at what stage are you pressing and holding the power button and for how long are you holding it for? When I tried it, the tablet just rebooted.
Thanks.
Norman
Hi,
1) Power off the tablet: no power or USB connected to the device.
2) Fire up the firmware update software on the PC, USB cable in and ready.
3) Select the ROM to update with in the software.
4) Plug in the USB cable to the tablet. At this point you should see the green battery charging image on the tablet.
5) Press power off for a couple of seconds (2-3). Tablet should now be turned off.
6) Fire up the software/ROM update on the PC.
If you see the updater flash through the first stages of the update and then seeming pause when doing the actual ROM update the tablet is on. Press power off again. You should then see the update actually loading onto the tablet. Should take about 5-10 minutes from there.
Luck...

Hi Des!
I follow your list and the tablet is rebooting every time! :crying:
I simply can't turn it off!
Any suggestion?
Thanks, Andrew
Hi,
Power it off first. When powered up press and hold the power button. Select Power off from the menu.
Get the laptop/PC ready with the image, plug the usb cable into the laptop/pc and then the tablet.
You should see the green battery icon on screen showing charge state.
When it has gone, press and hold the power again for about 2 seconds.
Then try the firmware update.
Des. . .
Hi,
Thanks for your help, but when I "press and hold the power again for about 2 second" the tablet is rebooting!
With a shorter power press i can switch the secreen on/off, but a longer press reboot it every time!
My battery icon is a big blue one, not a green one! Maybe i have a different version?
Model number: Lenovo A5500-H
Android: 4.4.2
Build number:A5500H_A442_00_025_141027_ROW
Hm?
Andrew
Hi,
All I can suggest is trial and error. It took me a a couple of goes to get it right.
But when you see that battery icon you know the device is on. Maybe a 1 second press? If I remember, you may feel a slight vibration to indicate that the tablet goes off. Soon as you feel that let go of the power button.
Mine was an A8-50 5500H but is now HV
