Hi Gurus,
Does anyone have any information about the Versus touchtab 10.1 dual core with android 4.1? I have just ordered it and am waiting for delivery.
http://www.johnlewis.com/231888577/Product.aspx
It has a pretty decent spec including the RK3066 SoC and 1 GB ram with a IPS screen.
I was wondering if it is possible to root it or even better flash it with cyanogenmod??
I understand it is a generic Chinese tablet that has been rebranded as Versus and I think also CnM touchpad. Does anyone know the "master" tablet model number?
Thanks,

Hi,
Yea that'd be great. I really love the performance of this tablet for be the price but would love to get a custom rom on it. Have you noticed any issue with wifi when the screen has been off? Mine doesn't like to reconnect. I have to toggle airplane mode to get it connected again.
Thanks
Hey,
I just picked up the 10.1 touchtab from Maplins yesterday, I've also noticed the issue with the wifi not wanting (or taking a long time) to reconnect after the screen switches off, the wifi also seems to be considerably weaker than on my other devices!

Hi,
I don't notice an issue with wifi strength and but it often won't reconnect. I have sent them an email regarding this so if they come back to me with a solution I'll be let you know.
Thanks
Thanks, do keep me updated!
Just incase anybody is interested, I'm 99% sure the CnM 10.1 touchtab is the same as the versus touchtab so some useful downloads can be found here: www_kmscomponents_com/cnmlifestyle/products/touchPad10DC.htm#down
(apologies as I cant yet post links)
Nexus 10
I think the best 10" tablet is the Nexus 10, and it's not bad prized i think you should consider that option.
Granted the nexus 10 is a nice tablet but it's twice the price of this tablet which I already have so don't think I'll be buying that. I already have a galaxy nexus phone which does me nicely.
Ideally would like to root this tablet or flash custom rom. If I don't manage to get the wifi working properly though it might have to go back.
Hi.
Great thanks for the files. Hope you u make some progress with rooting it. I don't really know how to manually root these things. I generally just use tools other brain boxes have written Lol. Would really like to get a ROM like cm on it though
What is the sort of processes you'd normally follow to root something with no tool available?
On another note I still haven't heard back about my WiFi issue however I notice if you go into the advanced WiFi settings you can set it to never release WiFi when the screen is off which seems to have fixed the issue so far.
Cheers.
Hi guys,
I just had a reply from Versus (CnM) stating that upgrading the firmware should solve the wifi issue. I'll give this a go tonight (hopefully the flash tool likes windows 8) and see what happens :fingers-crossed:
Hi there,
There is a new firmware on our website www.versusuk.com if you follow the instructions to upgrade your tablet this will resolve your problem.
Kind Regards,

Quick Versus root tutorial
I just purchased (yesterday) a Versus 10.1 DC from Maplins to and want to use it as a media player when I go away. With so many films in MKV format being bigger than 4GB, the only way I could see films this big was to root it to be able to read NTFS drives.
I followed the same route to root (pun there ) as zoranuk [cheers for that] but started by follwing the guide to install the right drivers first as supplied by user154 [cheers for that too]
So here's what I did and it rooted 1st time:
Installed the correct drivers as per the Vesus Touchpad - USB Debugging Setup Guide.zip earlier in the thread by user154
I then looked at the link supplied by zoranuk
I downloaded the Chinese Android manager application as mentioned on the page above.
Now here's where it can become confusing as it is all in Chinese!
Do not connect Versus yet but have USB Debugging already selected on tablet
Run ZhuoDaShi on loading
it will bring up this window
View attachment 1796599
click where the arrow is pointing
that will bring up the next
View attachment 1796600
again onto
View attachment 1796601
now attach the usb, after a minute or so then click
View attachment 1796602
again click the link
View attachment 1796603
this will root your Versus
I am not taking any credit to this just putting it all in one place, and hopefully get others rooted
cheers
Ian
yes that rooting works great..thanks

I carried out the firmware update on the 8DC and now it won't. It just gets stuck during the root process. So unless anyone has any other advice, give the new firmware a miss if you want to stay rooted.
On another note, has anyone had their ZhuoDaShi update to a new version with a new icon automatically? It also installs some other rubbish as well if you let it!
Hi
I was a day away from buying this incredible phone and suddenly realized that it doesn't support dlna(so no streaming from other devices wirelessly)....this is a major setback as the beauty of any android is dlna as I have 6 devices which all go well with each other and if this my phone which is important of all refuses to not talk with my other devices then its basically dumb
So I want to know if there is any app which will work like dlna(client and host)
Also why did moto didn't this basic functionality???(you don't have to answer this)

DLNA works perfectly fine. You can use this if you want to use your phone as a server or this if you just want to play the contents off of another server.
Hello-
I have a bit of a situation that I am looking for help on.
I have a Nexus 7 and Nexus 6. I have the Nexus 7 mounted in my car and, I keep my Nexus 6 in my pocket.
I currently have the Nexus 6 synced via bluetooth to my car for phone calls, Pandora, etc. and have the wifi-hotspot turned on to allow for Maps to work on my Nexus 7.
What I would like to do is have everything go through the Nexus 7 (Phone calls, Pandora, everything).
Where my limitation seems to lie is the ability to send and receive calls through the Nexus 7. The reason is that I would like to be able to play video/music from the tablet and have it heard through the car speakers but I don't want to lose the ability to make and receive calls through said speakers. Is there a way to do this? Unfortunately, my car's bluetooth does not have the ability to simultaneously connect to two devices.
I do not want to use Google Voice, so that is out.
One thought (that I haven't been able to get to work yet) is that I can connect the Nexus 7 to the 6 via bluetooth and use the phone as an audio passthrough to the car.
I am lost for options. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,

Good Luck!
Hey there the Oh so wonderful XDA community. I recently purchased the Alcatel Idol 3 and Watch combo off of Amazon for my father as a replacement for his Note 2 and so far he has been loving it.. Except for one issue.
As the title says he's having some slight Bluetooth issues and is only able to connect to the watch itself and other phones. He generally used his phone to connect to his truck and as well as his Bose speakers but the Idol 3 is unable to do so. Any idea as to how to fix this issue or if it's a widespread thing?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I am experiencing problems with Sony Ericsson MW600 and Plantronics Explorer 50. I am unable to perform a call through BT even if I select it on the call screen. The only way is to reboot phone while device is still connected. After then everything works fine.
I am trying to get help with this tablet. I am lost for words after reading piles of comments on different sites on this device and not being too much of a techie I'm not quite sure where to turn.
Bought this for my wife for Xmas couple of years back and she lost interest in this really slow and buggy tablet and ended up in her bottom draw.
I dragged it out the other week and have been playing with it and I cant believe how slow it is and now have lost the virtual keyboard only getting the voice option. In settings I have unchecked the Google Voice Typing but the Dell Cast Keyboard option is greyed out. I am ready to toss it as I canteven type the ID and password to get on-line. Any suggestions please.....
As a note have read that when Dell went to 4.4.4 was one of the big problems and wondering if it possible to downgrade to 4.4.2? as I've heard that the predecessor to this model worked extremely well using 4.4.2. Just a thought.
Many thanks for any help......
Everyone is mute on this subject, rightfully so....
Any suggestions of a site that chats about Dell android tablets?
Thanks....
