If you have an MSI windpad 7 or 10 and want to update its firmware, here is the link to the latest : http://event.msi.com/nb/enjoy/enjoy7.html#/?div=Firmware
Fair warning : This 2.3 gingerbread update doesn't improve performance much, it looks better than android 2.2 but people report different bugs that I didn't experience myself.
A bug I am experiencing with it is that its bluetooth and wifi are going crazy, not detecting devices like they used to do on android 2.2. be warned if you use this tablet with your car's bluetooth, it probably will stop connecting to it after the 2.3 update.
IMPORTANT MESSAGE : if anyone just bought this tablet and still has android 2.2 on it, please be cool and catch an image of it to share with us who updated to the buggy firmware. MSI customer support sucks, they don't keep old firmware on their website!
Here's how you can make an "image" of your firmware : http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...nandroid-backup-and-clockworkmod-rom-manager/
You should end up with a .img file that you can reinstall later if you find out the update is buggy for you.
Don't hesitate to post or PM me if you need help.
Hi adilator, just found this post via a google search. I have a windpad 7 that I havent updated yet. Am happy to do an image of it when I get home later.
Was hoping to find a way to get Skype video working on the damn thing but guessing this firmware update doesnt help so wont put myself through it
Hi leemako.
The normal skype you download from android play (market) doesn't work on this tablet, you need to use the one bundled with its original firmware. if you updated skype and it's not working, you can easily revert the update and go back to the original installation by going to the applications management page and click on "unistall updates".
is your tab on android 2.2 or did it come with 2.3 preinstalled?
I'd really appreciate your help if you can share the img with us.
Btw, if you must root the tab, don't do the root img available on a thread in this forum, it will install a new version of the firmware with the bug I'm trying to avoid. You should test the various froyo root tools available such as Z4root or gingerbreak, look here : http://www.itsmyiphoneworld.com/android-device/howtorootandroidversionfroyo222
ah sorry, I just checked and it was bundled with 2.3.1.
Hey it's ok leemako.
For anyone landing on this page after a search, if you're looking for the best custom rom for this tablet, here's where you should look : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668786
It's a great rom based on the latest official rom but with an ICS skin that makes it look a million times better.
Hi. I'm using an X-TIGI_JOY10 tablet. My android version is 5.1 and the tablet does not have an update android software option. I have checked the list of ROMs available but I do not have X-TIGI JOY10 as an option, but I want to experience the newer android versions. I would be very pleased if you added up ROMs that could support my device, looking at its specifications. Either I have X-TIGI's own or any other which is tailored to match my device's specs.
You can reply with the link(s) so that i can get them easily. THANK YOU.

I also have this device unfortunately I haven't been able to find any updates. But there is currently a rom in the manufacturer's website it's bundled with Baidu software which is in Chinese. If you manage to download I would be glad to know the details

Do these ROMs have the slight but constant micro-stuttering that the stock ROM has?
I guess all these ROMs are loaded with Google's stuff?
With the exception of Play Store I'd like to be free of the Google fleet of useless apps.
It's great that you've been able to port these ROMs. I hope a lot of people use them. I just have different needs! Tx.

Yes, all of them. You can "freeze" or delete unwanted Google apps. Do it manually or try to find scripts which can do this automatically.
Hi, I was thinking to buy this tablet.
Can these ROMs fix the issue of too high brightness even at the lowest level?
If not can you recommend a free application to solve the problem?
Better this or teclast m89 pro? Thanks.

To solved this brightness issue I use the sFilter app or any other blue light filter app.
But to tell the truth, I wouldn't recommend to buy any Teclast tablet. I have a problem where he doesn't accept the installation of Instagram or Facebook app. I saw that many people have the same problem.
Anyone else with this problem or know how to solve?

I added solution, check it and let me know if it works for u
It's possible to change brightness limits manually by editing firmware files, If there's a big problem for u and other users I can change its' range sometime. Just let me know what firmware u are using.
Hello dev!
Are you still working on this device firmware? I bought it this month and not even on official site could find updates for, so I don't know if there is any firmware that I should update before using these that you made...
I'm using Pixel Experience and found it great. But I had problems with the initial setup, which always had trouble trying to recover the configuration of another device. When I checked to set up as a new device it work fine.
I could not open Magisk too, but i wanted to disable it and remove, but always shows error when trying. I'll try MIUI in sequence to see if I can.
Another question: The modified Stock has gapps included? (and can I remove root?)
Thank you so much for your work, I was happy to know that have other firmware for this tablet.
PS.: sorry for the "google translator english", my english is poor. lol

I used the modified rom too and liked a lot, but I couldn't install some apps through the playstore and had problems to remove root (Magisk). So I installed ASUS ROM and it is very stable and everything is working great. I'll leave it and see what happens!
Thanks!

Hello!
1) There is no more firmwares to port for our device. Also I don't know much about modding firmwares, so Pixel was my first successful experiment.
2) Latest official firmware for our device is TOS v2.1 which can be found in appropriative thread here. Seems no more updates will be released for our device.
3) Restoring function is bad idea esp on custom ROM. You should always make clean installation.
4) Custom ROMs can only boot with root access (e.g. Magisk). You cant uninstall it. In other case your device wont boot (Android 7.0 classical issue). P.S Magisk is not like "classic" root, so you can "hide" it for apps that don't work on rooted device.
5) Of course stock ROM includes Gapps. All made changes are listed in topic. Root can'f be removed on any custom ROM (see p.4).

Thank you!
I gave the tablet to my son, the Stock ROM that came on it is'nt good and so I put the ASUS ZenUI ROM. (After testing all others)
I hide Magisk and the ROM is working perfectly.
Thank you so much for the great work.
Happy 2020.

Your device is old, even if ROMs were built for that device at someone point, those ROMs would have been built years ago and probably would not be available anymore because the download locations/links have not been maintained, no one keeps stuff around that long.
First, to flash custom ROMs, you need a custom recovery.
I suggest you do a Google search for:
"TWRP for (your specific model number)"
If it exists" that will find it, if it doesn't exist, you'll have to give up the idea of using ROMs or you can build TWRP for yourself.
If you find or build TWRP, then so some Google searches for:
"Custom ROMs for (your specific model number here)"
Or
"Kit Kat for (your specific model number)"
Or
"Lollipop for (your specific model number)"
Or
"Marshmallow for (your specific model number)
If those searches don't find anything, that means there is nothing for your device. If you still want some kind of ROM, you'll have to build it yourself.

I just bought a Motorola Moto E22 and want to install a custom ROM to get rid of google stuff.
It seems Lineage does not support this phone yet, but I found this LineageOS22 guide which I have no idea it is reliable or if it has anything to do with the official Lineage project.
Any clarification or suggestions for alternative privacy respecting ROMs that work on Moto E22 would be much appreciated.
First of all, don't do these before completing 1 year of buying. You will lose warranty for unlocking bootloader.
Second thing is, if any official rom is not supported, you can definitely use unofficial version from xda. Developers try their best to fix issues with unofficial roms. If you don’t know if it’s reliable or not, read the comments to learn about bugs, issues and positive sides.
Don't be afraid of trying roms built for your model. Because by chance if you don’t find the rom good, you can revert back to stock rom using rescue & smart assistant tool (official software from lenovo/moto)
And before getting started, take note of your model number. Also you have to install device info hw app & click on system there. There you have to find what is your device called in developments. The name will be written beside "device" title (not sure). For example, my moto e5 is called nora in development.
N.B. Dont use any unofficial rom from outside of xda!

Thanks for the quick response.
Privacy is a greater concern than warranty, so much so that I would have got the PinePhone if I could, but the best I can do is try to mitigate the damage made by stock android spyware and Motorola bloatware.
I'm more than willing to test unofficial roms, the problem is that there doesn't seem to be any available for my model here on xda, not even an official thread yet.
The LineageOS20 for Moto E22 link I found does seems a bit suspicious as there is nothing about it here on the forum.
