Few tips:
If you know exactly model of device, first search forum for section with this model and then read post abput rooting.
If you cant find model/models of tablet which you wanna learn to root or wanna ask that describe you procedure then change title to:" Need help to root this xxx(<--type here tablet model) "

Ok... so anyone up for rooting a chinese tablet? Got a Colortab-MID that according to the android system app is manufactured by WonderMedia and has an ARMv7 chip. PC at first recognized as Samsung S but after downloading android apk for 4.0.3 it connects with adb. Superoneclik said it was roted but somehow I cannot get superuser on. Went into the shell with adb and cannot change to su nor can I ask to "remount" the system as rw.
Any ideas?

Well I doubt its rooted then. Can you do a "adb remount"? Without any extra tags.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Nope. Got a "remount failed: operation not permitted" error message
Installed from play store link2sd, superuser and root explorer. Of course root explorer does not mount rw so surely not rooted.
To append more information. I've already tried:
Unlock Root ver 3.0 - says failed to get shell root
DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su - basically says the same thing, it even asks if already root
Cube Root for ICS 4.0.3 - experimented for the heck of it with this script but no gain
185_root_script - Found that this is for GB apparently
SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse - this version is apparently the latest but again no gain
It seems that all find that shell root cannot be obtained or that adb remount does not happen

Ok, got the 10" tablet rooted
So. After crawling around for about 3 days with google, and in XDA and flashmyandroid forums I found something that works with my chinese tablet. Bloody thing doesn´t let me put links so I´ll tell you what and how I found the needed file.
The file I used is named "Android_Root_1.0.zip" and I found it by plugging in "root" "tablet" and "generic" in XDA forum search. There is a forum by the name "[Q] Obtaining root on generic tablet" in which post #25 has a link for the file.
Just make sure of the following:
1) That the tablet is charged, has off-market apps allowed and USB debugging selected
2) When the tablet connects you use the USB drivers supplied in the Android SDK (I used ver 20.0.1). How to use such drivers is especially important for these "generic" tablets, just follow the instructions in other posts for changing the drivers. My tablet was recognized as a Samsung Galaxy S by Win7, which of course it is not.
3) Download, extract the archive and double click on the *.bat file
**Make sure you always wait for the tablet to reboot before pressing keys as instructed**
4) Voilá, if all goes well you should have a rooted tablet.
Information of use to all crawlers:
Manufacturer: WonderMedia
Country: China
Model: ColorTab-MID (10" screen)
Processor: ARMv7 rev(0)
Android: 4.0.3
Bought in Mexico from a SuperFin sale (similar to a cyberMonday in the USA)
P.s. now I'm going to try with my wife's... same mfgr but with a 7" screen. Need to check the processor though.
Hey guys, I just bought a new model of a 7inch Genesis Tablet. The model is GT-7240. Do you think the method that is used to root another 7inch model of same brand would work for my GT-7240 without bricking risks?
Thanks in advance! I'm really looking forward to having my tablet rooted.

The process I described for rooting my 10" generic chinese tablet I followed exactly for my wife's 7" tablet and it worked. I think my wife's is a wm8950 based tablet that is arm cortex a8 while mine is a wm8850 which is arm cortex a9. Mind, the ICS is somewhat different in each one but both "rooted" correctly without much fuss.

Ok here goes what I remember of how it goes. You need to be able to access the tablet from your computer and being that it is a chinese one that means that you will need the Android SDK because it has the USB driver. First off you need to go to java (at their website) and download and install the JDK (java development kit which you can find at www dot oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html). Once that installation is finished you need to download the Android SDK (you can find it at developer.android.com/sdk/index.html) which is in zip format. Unzip and take note of the folder. Navigate to that folder and double click on the SDK manager file. When the window opens make sure that all Android 4.0.3 boxes are selected (under Android 4.0.3 section) as well as the boxes from Android SDK Tools, Android SDK Platform-tools Under tools section) and the Google USB driver (under extras). Once the software is downloaded and installed restart your pc (just to make sure that all is well).
On your tablet make sure that USB debugging is selected (under settings) and connect your tablet to the PC. Regardless of what happens you will need to change the drivers the PC uses to connect to those in what you downloaded. Go to control panel, hardware then hardware manager and look for the tablet... it either will have incorrectly assigned drivers (mine were Nexus S drivers) or it will have a ! meaning that no appropriate drivers were found. Right click on the assigned name and then click on update drivers. Follow prompts to update from disk and navigate to the USB folder you created under the Android SDK installation folder.
Once that is done then download the file I mentioned in the link above. It will come in a zip file so unzip and take note of the folder. Navigate to the folder and double click on the **.bat file. It might happen that you have a DOS error which says that it did not find ADB. You will have to add the ***\tools folder of the Android SDK installation folder to the system path in the environmental variables (if you don´t know how just follow the instructions in java.com/en/download/help/path.xml).
Be carefull to always wait for the tablet to restart and be "seen" by windows after each key press once you double clicked on the **.bat file. You can leave the Hardware Manager box open and keep on eye on the tablet appearing there.
So... were these pointers enough? LOL being a bit sarcastic. Have fun.

[Q] BlueBo B3000 Android 4.0.4 kernel and fleshing problem

Hello,
I have problem with using RAM Expander, it shows me error message that my kernel does not support using swapp file..
So I contacted Developer and he told me that I should switch to cyanogenmod, well I have B3000 (chinese phone), and for this device there is no support.. If I install this mod I will loose my application for Analog TV tuner (and I can not find that one anywhere to download), and I have double SIM, So I also think that I will be able to use just one SIM card after I flesh my phone, (if I install ROM for some other device , if that is possible)..
Anyway, if anyone have any suggestion I will be very grateful!
Regards,
Emrah.

[Q] Need some answers about Ubuntu on N8000

Hi everyone,
I'm new to this community (as well as these activities i.e. flashing, modding etc..), but i have been following up on threads and topics for about 2 months..
i was obsessed with changing my N8000's OS, and I've found here a lot of Mods and stuff like Cyanogen Mod and OmniRom and others
but i decided to try out Ubuntu.
So far, i have found 2 main topics about installing Ubuntu on N8000, first one by mamenyaka about Ubuntu touch, and the other is X-Stranger's about Ubuntu (the PC version I Guess..),
However, i have a bunch of questions regarding installation and features, so please be patient with my n00bness! and Thanks in Advance...
(if this thread gets solved, I think it can perhaps be used as a "newbie FAQs")
1st of all i have a note 10.1 N8000 running stock JB , and I have about 3.5 GB free
These Questions are based upon procedures and infos in mamenyanka's thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168999
1- Should i upgrade to 4.4.x KK or should i keep JB? (recommendations?)
2- Do i have to have Cyanogen Mod installed on My device in order to install Ubuntu?
3- Do i have to Root the Device?
4- Can i Dual Boot this or install on SD?
5- Sound doesnt Work? u mean speakers aint detected? can it be usable if i plug the headphones?
6- Cellular Radio doesnt work? u mean no Calls/SMS?
7- What about Play store and its Apps?
8- Does this Ubuntu support WINE?
9- Does this Ubuntu detect other devices like BT keyboard or USB Flashes?
10- What is the best Tool for Backing up? (my device is untouched since buying i.e. didnt do any kind of Modding)
11- Does the backup save my entire data (Apps,games,savegames,notes,contacts,gallery,sounds etc.)
12- What is the chance of my device getting bricked?
And these questions are based upon X-Stranger's Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2554959
1- What kind of ubuntu is this?
2- Should i upgrade to 4.4.x KK or should i keep JB? (recommendations?)
3- Can i DualBoot this or install on SD?
4- Does the sound work here?
5- 3G doesnt work? u mean no Calls/SMS?
6- What about Play store and its Apps?
7- Does this Ubuntu support WINE?
8- Does this Ubuntu detect other devices like BT keyboard or USB Flashes?
9- What is the recovery.img file, what is the custom and the native recovery.img, and what does the "menus" stand for?
10- What is the chance of my device getting bricked?
A Yes/No answer would be enough for most of these questions..
Thanks Again

How to identify real device (Clone phone)?

Hi everybody,
not sure whether I can post this within the clone phone threads since I do not know the processor nor the manufacturer.
Phone is a pseudo iPhone which runs some kind of Android which is disguised as iOS (really bad quality).
Unfortunately this Android is really instable and phone does not work reliably.
Now I am trying to find out whether there might be another Android version which I could flash instead. Already identified Needrom as possible source but need the real device manufacturer and processor before.
Any idea how I could proceed here? Just still trying to avoid to connect to PlayStore on this phone since the Chinese ones are known for their spyware.
Recoveryis accessible.
From backside: A1660FCCID;BCG-E3085AIC59C-E3085A
From About: Modell: MNRJ2CH/A
Which other information do I need to provide/identify the phone and how do I get it?
Any help highly appreciated.
Bye
First things I identified are that it seems to be a Lenovo using MT65xx - at least this was shown during driver installation when phone was connected to Win PC.
After connecting to Win10 Laptop YunOS ACB Interface has been installed. MTKTools tells about the already known fake and says its an MT6582.
So how can I provide a suitable stock ROM onto it?

Hey Renth,
I am afraid I got one of those too. It looks like an iphone with 250GB memory, but in eality it only has less than 50 MB.
Model: A1660 FCCID BCG E3085A IC579C E3085A
I a wondering also if I can wipe out whatever it has installed.
Sorry for the late reply. I also raised that topic within China Devices Forum back then. There I documented all my activities (hopefully did not forget anything).
Do not know whether cross referencing is allowed, so just send me a PM then I can provide you the link. Alternativly you can ask google for "How to identify real device (Clone phone)?" and then follow the link with the same topic at Chine Devices forum.

Help needed updating Mediawave MW22-A32 from 4.4.4 to OS6.0+

Hi all! Android noob looking for suggestions.
Manufacturer: Mediawave PC (now Techland PC)
Hardware Model: MW22-A32
Current OS: 4.4.4
Chipset: Rockchip RK3288 (supposedly capable of Android 8.1)
Rooted with SuperSU
Purchased this 22" touch display off eBay and wanted to load an app that requires Android 6 or higher. The manufacturer does not offer an update package for this device and indicated what I have was a special build for a single project that is now likely being refreshed and hardware liquidated. Tech Support indicated I needed to simply buy a NEW device that already has the OS updated.
I would like to think we can update to a newer version of OS, but I have no idea where to start. I checked a few online videos, but they seemed to point to pre-packaged OS bundles from tech enthusiasts for specific mass market tablet models.
Is an upgrade like this possible without having device specific files/firmware? If so, can you point me to a guide or walkthrough for how to do this as an Android novice? Thank you!
In order to upgrade existing Android OS as 1st thing of all things you need to find a
1. Custom Recovery
2. Custom ROM
both suitable to the mentioned device.

Using the 'Official TWRP App', I created a copy of both the boot and recovery image.
For the next step, if the device manufacturer will not supply an updated ROM, can you use the hardware profile help find a close custom rom that may work here? if so, do you have any suggestions on next steps? I installed the 'Droid Info' app to view hardware info, but it was not as detailed as I had hoped.
Can't answer your questions because I never compiled TWRP at my own.
Were you ever able to update this device? I have one that i want to update as well.
I also bought one of these off of ebay and would like to know if you figure out how to upgrade to Android 8.1.

I purchased one of these recently and the OS is Android 4.4.4
Do you know where I can download the ROM, Recovery image file?
I believe that I saw that your website stated the OS to be Android 7.1.
Is it supposedly capable of Android 8.1?
<and thank you very much>
Yet another question...
The unit I purchased seems to have only 1GB DRAM?!?
Any way to increase this? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

I did not attempt. TechlandPC did respond and said that this model maxed out at 4.4.4. I was not convinced that the updated firmware will work with this device and could not find anyone specifically doing it to this device - and did not want to brick it. I was able to delete some large system apps and free up some space with OAndBackupX (Andorid 4+)- https://f-droid.org/en/packages/dk.jens.backup/
Interested in this aswell.
I know the topic is a few months old but I’m currently looking at possibly purchasing the 22” or 15” in models and wanted to see if there were any further updates? What is everyone using them for? I hope to use them with home assistant and fully kiosk…anyone know if it’s possible? Seems like there is enough interest, maybe we can get this tablet upgraded?

I purchased the 22" for my 83yr mother. I created a desktop stand for her to use it to view her gmail, facebook, etc. Its fairly limited because of the small space on the device, So I found a way to move many of the apps to an external usb. It also does not have a camera - which would have been nice for her to be able to use to make videochats, but I could not get an external usb camera to work (tried 4 different makes/models). I never did attempt to flash and upgrade it.
Oh wow Don…good on you for getting your grandmother up and going with it. I’m a little scared to take the plunge not knowing if it can run what I need…how good is the browser (is the system sluggish?) They two I’m looking at say they have built in cameras (I too was hoping to use it) but I bet it will be a no go :/

If it says in the description that it comes with a camera - you may be ok. Mine clearly stated that it did not have a camera.
It is responsive and works well. I did do something to make it sluggish but I do not remember specifically... it may have been that I came very close to maxing out the storage which caused the issue.
The other thing that I was really disappointed in is that it does not have an HDMI in. So I could not push video to it. It does have an HDMI port, but I havent tested if it does push video to another device since I didnt have a need to do that.
It’s good to hear it’s responsive (or was lol) maybe I should just bite the bullet and get it…if I can just get it to run Home assistant it will be golden…if you think of anything else or figure anything out let me know!
