Wonder if I have ask wrong qustion in a wrong place.
Do we need to root Android Apad? Or it already rooted.
How do we root it if not?
Thanks

what kind of your tablet?
and what procie that it have?
what type of OS, ROM, etc ???
gimme all specs.

I also have same device:
Specs:
- Android OS
- Version 1.7.4
- Kernel Version: 2.6.29.00236-g4f8dbbb-drity
My question is:
- where can i get an update for the OS (custom or official)
- how to update/upgrade?
Thanks

I believe the original poster is referring to this device:
(sorry, gotta break up the urls to post)
reviewguy.net /gadgets/apad-clone-is-ipad-android.html
I don't have one, but if what I've read is correct you get root access through ADB by default, so something like the local privilege escalation methods should work:

I'm back sorry MIA for few days, cause trying out on the Apad.
My Apad spec
Android 2.1 Update 1
Telechips TCC8902 800Mhz
256MB ram
4GB storage but only see 200mb++ ??
cirrus sound chips
single touch 800x480
not sure about others
Trying to customize the OS cause the OS comes with it is buggy, crashing, and slow.....
Thanks

I rooted my wammy desire 7 by following this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1987280
Though i faced problems with the driver. and another important thing is that I executed the command one by one mentioned in the ROOT.bat file. I dont know why running the batch didnt work for me. Also, the embeded adb only worked not the one with the android SDK.
I tried flashing CWM, but kind of soft bricked my TAB. I had to reflash stock firmware again to get my TAB back

Hi sharing site doesnt allow to download
I tried those mentioned in their blog post it says too many free users download at the moment
I tried alot but cudnt get to download
Also is their a CM ROM for this device ???
The reason I looking for the latest ROM is because I am getting a screen distoretion
and guys from wickedleak directed me to download a latest firmware
Also gettting some random freezes now and then
Please let me know if any ROM available it will be a great help

Thanks for pointing out the ROOT.bat I got the ROOT_icood70pro but ddnt realize the embedded adb is the only adb I never try and that is the working one with my RK3066. I am using Ployer Momo7 dual core.

How To Root + Enable ADB On Versus/CnM Touchpad 10.1DC (and other generic tablets)

Wasn't sure where to post this, so figured here was the safest option - just change it if it needs it!
I posted this guide for rooting the stated tablet recently and somebody suggested I post it on XDA so here it is. It works to root the Versus 10.1DC tablet, which was later rebranded to the CnM Touchpad 10.1DC, and also enables the use of ADB on this tablet. It's highly likely that this will also work for the other Versus/CnM Touchpads (and probably just generic tablets in general), but there are other options available for rooting those tablets so it's not as important.
Anyway, for the complete guide just check out my original post: http://blog.zackehh.com/how-to-enable-adb-and-root-cnm-touchpad-10-1dc/

Rockchip - CnM TouchPad 10.1DC
Hi, I have got this tablet Rockchip - CnM TouchPad 10.1DC. It has this Dual-Core 1.6 CPU ARM Cortex A9
and it seems to have Quad-GPU, but I can't find the name of this chip (Quad Core Mali-400 Graphics Processor maybe?)
Anyway. I have been using it for 1 week now. And it is on Jelly Bean 4.1.1 and it is kind of slow. Google Chrome is unusable on it.
Takes ages to load, keyboard pops up slowly, and it freezes when browsing from time to time. the same issue in Adobe Reader, it is way
to slow and freezes too.
My questions are:
1) Can I install Jelly Bean 4.2 on this device? (no official 4.2 from the maker)
2) Is there anything that can make this tablet faster?
Thanks.
Juris.

1). There are some unofficial CyanogenMod ports, there's probably a 4.2 version out there now.
2). Just removing all the bloat made mine fairly smooth

[Completed] [q] want to know basics of rooting and flashing of gionee m 2

GIONEE M2
Iam totally new & curious about cons. & pron.of rooting & flashing. I want to know which will help me to have required features in my phone with least risk either rooting or flashing------------
01. Some sites say that it supports full OTG (pen drive support) which is disabled in it. I don't know wether it is true or not. If it is true than how to unlock this feature.
02. Its original 4.2.2 along with bloatwares consumes about 550+ ram this makes a trouble to me for multi processing in it.
03. Is custom ROM for android phones are developed on basis on of hardware or is similar to windows for pc & laptops. Like using any windows OS and after that installing audio,video,graphics,connectivity,Bluetooth,etc drivers for it according to hardware.
04. In my phone bloatwares also asking for update thus going to increase my phone's RAM.

Mediatek MT8173 & MT8176 Development

Mediatek MT8173 & MT8176 development
Hi folks, after I've long been working on my device and only made little progress in building LineageOS for my Xiaomi Mi Pad 3 I decided to look for other developers with similar devices.
My Mi Pad 3 (codename: cappu) is a tablet based on a Mediatek MT8176 SoC. It was launched in April 2017. The tablet comes with a 7.9" display with a resolution of 2048 pixels by 1536 pixels at a PPI of 326 pixels per inch. It is powered by a 2.1GHz/1.7GHz Hexa Core processor ( 2 x 2.1GHz Cortex A72 + 4 x 1.7GHz Cortex A53 ) and it comes with 4GB of RAM. The tablet packs 64GB of internal storage that cannot be expanded. It was shipped out with Android 7.0 (Miui) and is still on this version).
Two months ago Xiaomi finally released Kernel Source Code for my device. It was broken, but I fixed most of the conflicts, streamed the kernel up to latest linux-stable and added some features. I also tried to build LineageOS & AOSP trees, but I have to admit, I'm starting to get desperate. For this specific SoC - even it's predecessor MT8173 - there is no activie development. And that is what I am looking for!
I collected some devices that either use MT8176 SoC, or the older MT8173 SoC. Some of them have Kernel Sources, which I listed and linked below.
All questions, requests for help, suggestions, ... are welcome. If you own any of the listed devices feel free to write and help. This thread is also on Reddit.

First thanks for your initiative! And I am very interested in obtaining a Custom ROM for my Teclast T10 E3C5 device with the aforementioned MTK8176 Chipset. I cannot help you with development but are open to test it and report bugs.

Hi Goayandi,
I'm not sure how many experienced ROM developers you will get. (I'm not one of them. I have compiled and modded existing ROMs, but never ported one.) I've heard several people say they will look into building a custom ROM for mt8163 or mt8173. But that's always as far as it gets. They never come back with any results. So I was just curious, what are you getting stuck on?
As far as I can tell, one major problem with porting to Mediatek is that they modify a lot of Google's OS code like frameworks and libraries. I do see that you already have some MTK customized repositories in your github library. You may have to do some reverse engineering of the stock ROM to confirm that the MTK changes are the same ones you have in your repos. Yes, that's a huge pain. It's also likely that MTK's patches for mt81xx and mt67xx, which is probably what you have, are pretty different.
One suggestion I want to make is to start out with a ROM that's as close to stock as possible. That means building a plain AOSP build NRD90M. This will reduce as many trouble-causing variables as possible. That's how I would do it. If you accomplish that, it will be easy to move on to higher Android versions or LineageOS, etc.
I would also use the prebuilt kernel for now. There is not much point to compiling your own for the same reason I just mentioned. A lot more variables would enter the equation. (Unless maybe you can test it independently with the stock FW.)

Any chances of giving TeamMAD access to one of these devices?

I have a Teclast T8 stuck in fastboot mode. No recovery, no system. adb cannot see the device. Is there a way to recover from that?

I tried that. That would work if recovery were bootlooping, and system were intact. In my case, my T8 cannot get to system. The Teclast Logo goes through its animation on startup, then gets stuck there. Holding volume up and power gives me 3 choices: recovery, fastboot, normal. Recovery and Normal are both broken. Fastboot is the only one I can do. How to recover from that?

You need to reflash firmware/rom with the sp flash tool.

You should flash stock firmware on your tablet with SPflash tools. Search for Mediatek SPflash + your device name in Google. Flash procedure should look like this:
FLASH Mediatek device
- Unpack FlashTools, and Click on Flash_tool.exe
- Select "scatter-Loading" and search MT8173_Android_scatter.txt in ROM
- Wait file to be added into Flash Tool
- Select "Download Only" or if upgrade "Firmware upgrade"
- Turn off your phone (and don't turn on the phone).
- Press “Download” button to start
- and connect your phone into the computer via USB data cable.
- The process will start and a red progress bar will appear after color purple, yellow.
- And green circles display
- Finish !
- You can now safely disconnect your phone and turn it on.
So you should look for your ROM/FIRMWARE and than flash it. Key step for you is to turn of the tablet, push download button in SPflash tools, and then connect USB to the tablet. Flash will then start!
But Google for instructions on how to use SPflash

Thank you, BiG_FooT and fastmix! Leaving it in power off state before SP flash was the missing step. I don't know how I missed that in previous Google searches. Fully working tablet now.
I now have two of these things. If you (or any others interested in developing this Mediatek) want me to use one of my Teclast T8s for testing for you, let me know.

Has anyone successfully flashed the firmware??
The system.img for all the ROMs is corrupt

Hi! I have an Alfawise Tab (rebranded JDTAB 01) with MT8173 chipset and android 6.0.
I managed to find the stock firmware and recovery, so i tried to port this TWRP recovery: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-pad/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-mi-pad-3-cappu-t3744185 unsuccessfully, maybe because of the different android versions(?)
I don't know....
Does anyone know how to port- build a custom recovery for these chipsets (mt8173-76)?
Or know if there is a working TWRP based on android 6.0 and these chipsets?

So, is there still any development? Where kernel-sources for Teclast devices can be found?

What an utter failure. Of both the manufacturers and the community.
It's fairly clear that the problem is hardware fragmentation. There is just too much diversity in Android hardware platforms, even too many different ARM-based CPUs, and too few users on many of those to justify a major development effort for any of them.
The moral of the story must be: if you want your tablet to remain useful for more than a couple of years, don't buy a cheap Chinese generic one made by a company that isn't a famous global brand. Stick to hardware that has sold in the millions.

What we really need to do is reverse engineer a few roms already built for these chipsets, then see what they all have in common. This will help us figure out what needs to be done to the kernel, and what firmware we need.

Any news? Has anyone tried to flash GPD firmware on one of the other tablets with the same chipset? I have a Chuwi Hi9 with MTK 8173 and I would love to be able to change the ROM, the default one sucks big time. I actually bought it because it had the same chipset as one of the GPD devices.

Where To Start??

Hi,
If I were you I would start by having a really good look through the MTK_X20_BASE_AOSP open source code here https://github.com/archermind/MTK_X20_BASE_AOSP
In that you will find all the required mtk binary's and documented associated google dependency's and stock mtk app's needed. Dig through all the make files and compare your project_confg which should be in your system/data/misc on 6.0 and vendor/data/misc 7.0 with the one in that source to see whats built.
Because it's mediatek it's messy and things are all over the place but after days of reading it you can kinda start follow the rabbit eventually :laugh:
Take what you need and assemble it into a nice logical fashion using a experienced dev's work as a example and try a AOSP build if that works then try Lineage.
When you have things stable follow others who have stepped up in firmware version.
Most things should work if you have a working kernel.
Best place to start would be HERE it's invaluable :good:
There are other places and make's for BT WiFi GPS etc etc so ensure to explore it well.
Obviosly get the blobs from your own device if poss else pinch them form that source and give them a try it's all trial and error.
If I ever find the time I may join you one day to build a rom for the Lenovo Tab2 mt8165 please note most of these mt8xxxx have a equivalent mt67xx/mt65xx see my sig below for a example.
Good Luck and Happy building :fingers-crossed:

Hello!
Do I have a chance to do this with my teclast T8 device if I don't have even kernel-source code? For now I've ported most of firmwares different from my stock ROM (MIUI, ZenUI etc). But I would like to upgrade android version ( Nougat to Oreo) if it possible. Since not so long new device ( alldocube X) was released on same chipset (mt8176) with installed android Oreo, maybe this may help some way?

Since not so long new device ( alldocube X) was released on same chipset (mt8176) with installed android Oreo, maybe this may help some way?

Hello To All
I have a Teclast M89 That I rooted with Magisk and have a working TWRP for backing up.
I am very interested in Testing Kernels and new Roms.I have already wiped and reflashed device a couple times -now Everything for testing,flashing, and booting has been verified.
