Hi..good news happy_guy. I was finally sent another image which I loaded onto my resistive tablet. All the audio video files started working finally......but..the wifi and 3G stopped working. From this I gather that tablet is not faulty but it is just the correct software package is not supplied. I have also discovered that this inet tablet has few board revisions already. Pls note that all or any software will just not work straightaway. Your wifi and 3G cards must also match with the future images. I wish this forum allowed to put your signature at the bottom of your post so that we could include the gear we owned...or maybe I just do not know how to put it.

Hope this helps someone.

I have a tablet called Ingenium 2.3 bought from chinavasion.com.

It is a 7" capacitive screen without 3G and has a USB WiFi adaptor (see post #466 for photos)

Here is a link to the factory firmware (dated 6-sep-11):

(Think the upload is only valid for 30 days?)

My specs are:

The main board is labeled as:

iNet-1 1# Board

thanks. I'll make CM7 for some inet-tek tablets with realtek usb wifi (when I get enough time...)

btw inet-tek tcc8803 capacitive tablets have 5point multitouch?

this article says it's 5point: http://akiba-pc.watch.impress.co.jp/hotline/20110910/ni_cdawa.html
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonobnz:
Thanks fun_, CM mod would be greatly appreciated when you can find a bit of time.

My tablet is only a 2 point capacitive screen, but it sounds like there are a few variants of it around. There is a manufacturer szdream.com who claims to make the tablets. They call it a MID070T3.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
Hi. I've been reading many last pages of this thread before posting, but I got a little confused since this is for many tablets and better asking than bricking.

Yesterday I got my Ingenium 2.3 from Chinavasion. The battery level while charging stucks at 15% but when unplug, it goes to real level, so not a big deal.

However, Yesterday Wifi worked fine. Today, it never found a network. It turns on, yes, no Error, but says "Scanning..." sometimes. Sometimes not even "Scanning...". I'm freaking out and about to return it (chat-talked them yesterday but about battery thing). Tried everything, also some data restore (also from recovery) trying to fix it. No luck.

I found hope here, but I'd love if some of you with the Ingenium 2.3 could tell me the current status. Some fix for wifi, some firmware with it fixed, need to wait for a few days? I'm not an Android noob at all so you can ask me whichever info you need to get from it.

Thank you very much.

:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
Oh God... I did this and finally started flashing, but after a while (like 70% of progress bar), it showed full of red and something like MTD ERROR.

Now it only shows Welcome screen. Trying to boot into recovery willl just make a black screen, and the Back+Power to use FWDN won't work anymore.

Please, any help here? :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parastie:
That's not good. Telechips have a hardware way to force devices into FDWN mode, I'm not sure if it'll work on your tablet or not, but it does work on Emdoor based tablets (I tried it as described in a previous post). You have to short pins 7 and 8 on the NAND while the device is plugged in AND the battery is disconnected.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
This?

I take the tablet for lost , but the thing is: Now I've been redirected to vendor (Chinavasion) warranty FAQ and they say that flashing a firmware, even the oficial one, voids Chinavasion warranty :confused: , although in the tablet manual provided in the CD, it explains how to flash it :confused: (WTF?)

I can send it back, but my question is: will they be able to easily see if I tried to flash something? I've read something about a counter in Samsung devices or something. If so, if I send it back I'll lose even more money (just for sending it back, I'll lose 60$ (20 of original shipment + 40$ to send it back) + xxx$ if I have to pay the repair +ship again if they detect I voided the warranty... I want to burn the hell of a tablet... :( Unless I'm sure they won't be able to tell if I did that, I won't send it. I prefer having a 200$ black stone on the desk than a 400$ Chinese tablet :S

Can I do the NAND pins you said? :confused:

Thanks :)

Toch screen dead

Hi all,

I did exactly what Matt described. Flashing went fine but after reboot my touchscreen is dead. I tried to reflash several firmwares (matt's and _fun's). They all seem to work except for the touch screen...

My tablet:

Igenium, capacitive, 3G

EDIT:

YES! I found the solution: I flashed the 11A5-H1-H01-F304 firmware. Don't know what the difference is between this firmware and the others but it saved my day.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PulseM:
I do not want to imagine what Antonio must be going through. It has been my experience that a screen freezes when an incorrect image is used. I have a resistive screen and it always froze whenever I flashed it with a capacitive version. I 'think' I bricked it once but upon disconnecting the battery plug inside and launching the FWDN with original firmware on first boot afterwards did the trick...phew that was hair raising.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonobnz:
I bought mine back from being a brick a few times. I also found that one of my PC's wouldn't flash firmware correctly (would get RED box in FWDN and a CRC error) and the same firmware flashed from another PC would work ok.

I wouldnt give up just yet. I think the key is getting the right firmware for your tablet and getting a PC setup to flash correctly. (in my case i had a spare Windows Xp PC with a fresh install of XP SP2)

Good luck.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parastie:
Here's what I did:

1. Have FWDN setup FIRST: Up, loading you lk.rom and img file. I also had an .fai file that I had backed up before i started screwing with everything.

2. Short pin 7 and 8 on the NAND flash, and hold the power button.

3. WAIT while FWDN tool does its things. DO NOT let go of power or the short.

4. When FWDN shows the NAND flash info, then you can release power and short.

5. Click start, and away you go!

At least that's what I think I did..

ALSO!!

for anyone else out there using FWDN to flash firmwares, it's FAR FAR safer to flash just the .img file and skip flashing the lk.rom file. If you have flashed an incorrect lk.rom file, you'll end having to use the method above to force the tablet into FWDN mode. This works with EM73 emdoor tablets, I'm not sure about other builds.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
Will try right now. But I don't understand step 2. Does it involve opening the tablet wo the warranty is definitely gone?

In addition, I used this firmware, which uploaded jonobnz for my same tablet.

:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonobnz:
I never had to pop the white back off mine or short any pins!!

Try installing _fun's CM mod that he uploaded for Matt.

If that works, perhaps my upload is corrupt and in that case i can upload it again for you.

Jono.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
But I can't flash anything because it usuallly doesn't detect it. Sometimes just a second, then nothing, so the NAND pins looks like the probable way to make it flash (although I have no idea what the NAND pins are so I can't do it), no?

You will think I'm a coward or something, but I'm trying not to void the warranty (although maybe I already have...). I never used warranty for anything but the wifi failed just 24 hours after receiving it, so yeah I may try to get it unbricked as I have done with my other Androids, but if wifi isn't working and I voided warranty, I'm screwed up.

I'm waiting for your final answers here before definitely talk to Chinavasion to clear up the whole think. So what do you thing I should do:

1. Try to flash it with the NAND pins thing (which "probably" will boot it but may have wifi not working but I can't send it back because I voided warranty opening it).

2. Send it back (although I flashed that and maybe they will know I voided warranty so I have to pay more)? [I won't pay a cent more to those bastards. Until now they worked "fine" but I'm done with them]

3. Any other solution? (My dad says he will burn the thing if I lose too much time with that, heh)

Thank you very much, and I'm so sorry for looking like a noob in this thread... (usually I'm the asked one, not the asking one)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bruceakinson:
Just thought that I'd mention that my bricked touchscreen on the em73 is now fixed thanks to the 7022 lk.rom from androtab.info. Had to short nand to install after bad flash and everything wasn't working prior to flashing this lk.rom.

Just a note, you have to add and select the img and boot file in FDWNtool before it'll detect properly. You need to pop off the back (make sure the sd card is out) and cut the red batt wire. Touch the 7th and 8th pins on the nand with a pin (google for pic, some other forum posted details and close-up pics for nand short) then hold in the power button. After the device detects, it'll automatically flash a basic boot file so that you can see the nand, after it's finished (about 2-3 mini dialogs), you can let go of the power button and pin. Make sure you select format nand (I also created a nand.fai image, but don't think it's needed as you're erasing everything on the device). I have the sunsky em73 firmware if you want it, but use the androtab lk.rom. I also have the Win7 64x/WinXP 32x drivers and a working version of FDWNtool if you want them.

There is hope! Was out of my depth when I bricked it, and after a bit of research, it's now running better than ever! :D

Search google for info on opening the coby 7022, that's how I found the nand chip pics. REMOVE SD CARD BEFORE STARTING! I used a guitar pick to pry open the back, starting at the corners near the sd card slot. Be careful as you do this, the cam will be connected to the back, so don't just rip it off. After you finish the first two corners, it should pop off (with a little encouragement).

Good luck!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fun_:
there are many kind of EM73. people should carefully check which ROM need to be used.

under USB boot mode, lk.rom are loaded from PC to RAM on tablet via USB. so lk.rom need to be added to FWDN window before connecting tablet.

after lk.rom is loaded on RAM, you need to flash lk.rom into flash ROM. after flashing lk.rom, "short NAND pin" method is not needed anymore.

other files (mtd.img and nand.fai) can be flashed at same time.

I think your upload is not corrupted. there is many "very similar but different" tablets. don't think they are same even if you bought same chinese tablet from same shop at same time!

chinese factory often change hardware silently, so reseller may not know they are different.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
I would appreciate the drivers and the FDWN, thanks :)

I0m going to try on another computer to detect it... if not, I'll do the opening thing. I will be clear with Chinavasion, and ask them for the firmware out of warranty. I'm not sending this **** back to China, then wait for them to detect I ****ed it up and that they tell me I have to pay more... :'(

Since I still have the Wifi Error although I flashed 2 firmwares of the last pages of this thread for the Ingenium 2.3, I made the "ls /system/wifi" and I get wlan.ko (I can upload it if needed).

I also did a dmesg just after trying to turn wifi on (so it would appear), and this is what I get:

Hope it's useful. I'm stuck with the wifi thing. I also believe the resolution is smaller now, but the person who is going to use it doesn't actually care about that.

Thank you! :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fun_:
you should make things clear before flashing random files.

what kind of wifi chip your tablet uses, realtek? atheros?

what firmware you flashed? "2 firmwares of the last pages" is too unclear for me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
Of course, you are right. I'm sorry. I don't think they were random files, just the two Ingenium 2.3 firmwares two users posted. They actually work.

Last week I flashed this one:

But as I said, it bricked (x64 PC problem I guess). So yesterday I eventually tried the same process and firmware with my x86 netbook, and it worked. Not sure about screen resolution, which isn't important at all, but wifi still wouldn't work (I had wifi error with original firmware like 24 hours after receiving it, so not a flashing thing. I started flashing trying to fix wifi error).

So, without wifi, I flashed this one:

I can't actually tell which Wifi chip I have. I guess the screenshot of "dmesg" shows the driver, which may not coincide with the real chip. Should I open it so I can actually tell you the wifi chip specs?

Since the error came with original firmware, I guess it may be a hardware thing, no? I'll wait for your answer before asking for wifi chip replacement or alternatives.

Thank you very much fun_

:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fun_:
there is at least 2 kind of wifi chip. about "two Ingenium 2.3 firmwares" you flashed, matt's one is for atheros, jono's one is for realtek. they actually do NOT work on different wifi chip. it just booted.

your tablet may be 3rd one.

if you have backup of stock rom, please check or upload it.

otherwise, please post entire dmesg output after wifi on.

of course "open it" is fastest :)

realtek chip is placed on small board and connected to main board by wires. it may have chance to break wire/solder.

atheros chip is placed on main board. it should be hard to break it. but it's chinese cheap product, everything can be broken :)

if you have realtek one, and wire/soler is broken, then it's impossible to identify wifi chip from dmesg. because both are "not exist".
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
OK, So I just opened it have the same specs as jonobnz posted (Realtek):

and that's the firmware I flashed first after my wifi error.

I don't see anything clearly broken. I uploaded some pics:

Meanwhile, I will try to make sure everything is well connected and flash jonobnz firmware for Realtek.

EDIT: I touched the wires in a desperate action to see if they were ok, then flashed jonobzn firmware. Still Wifi error :S

Thank you very much! :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonobnz:
Yup looks like the same wifi chip as mine. Pity your WiFi isn't working, and it sounds like it broke early on, so maybe a faulty chip... The one thing going for this tablet is the strong wifi signal. I have another China tablet (Wits A91) and the WiFi range is junk, but the Ingenium 2.3 WiFi is as as good as my HTC cell phone.

Chinavasion.com has agreed to replace my unit under warranty, but don't know if I can be bothered. I will wait paitently for fun_ to find some time to create a CM7 mod for this WiFi chip ;)

Hi

I've been playing around with a MID720C from Yatay, (the firmware file they've given me is em73_2.3.3_SIS_HY30_V2_24ecc if that helps).

Now, I didn't read forums and such when I got this test unit so I'm one of those idiots using FwTool. I was actually trying to see if our customers could break the unit. SO in a sense I was successful :P

I've googled enough to know that it bricks the touch screen and there's currently no way to get it to work again.

BUT. since I'm in contact with Yatay I thought I might be helpful if any of you clever guys out there think any files or info might be helpful in actually getting the touchscreens to work again? What would IN THEORY make them work again? What stopped them from working in the first place?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parastie:
It would appear the recovery is missing from your tablet, and that your stock rom is also missing. Can you contact the company your purchased your tablet from and request the original ROM? Someone on the Kogan thread (which you posted to) might also be able to send it to you.

For the time being, you can use CM7 from Fun, I believe the Emdoor EM73 capacitive GC2M 8K works on the Kogan. The files are available here: http://androtab.info/telechips/firmwares on the bottom of the page.

Do you know how to use FWDN?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dream_my:
Thank you so much for your help Parastie.

I have been opening and refreshing this page whole day hoping get some answer. I have no idea of how to use FWDN. And if i get the original ROM, would it be easy to fix? I have emailed Kogan about the problem, but still waiting for their reply.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fun_:
best way is to reflash(install) original ROM. but generally factory reset doesn't kill android nor recovery. your kogan may be broken. asking about repair/exchange may be better way.

how to use FWDN is here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14237828&postcount=2

please don't flash files for other tablet.

I also think your kogan is EM73 GC2M 8K like as other kogans, but there are many variants, hard to identify it.

here is another rom(almost stock rom) for EM73 GC2M 8K: http://www.szltp.com/download/download43.html

Sorry if it sounds too naive, but how to reflash the tab to the rom? Do i need to use FWDN following the guide in the link http://xdaforums.com/show...28&postcount=2 ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fun_:
well, sorry, there is another way if you can use fastboot.

flash clockworkmod recovery with fastboot, boot into recovery, then restore (someone's) backup of kogan rom.

you also can flash new rom with fastboot instead of FWDN.

--

I forgot 1 thing in prev. post. in FWDN case, you should not flash lk.rom in rom not from kogan. I think lk.rom in Gpad702 rom will work fine, but at least boot splash will be replaced by chinese one.

lk.rom is bootloader, important part in rom. currently there is no way to backup from tablet. currently there is no lk.rom for kogan on the net. at this time you should not overwrite it.

if you can restore your kogan, enjoy with it enough time, and if you want to try custom rom, then you may try compatible and better lk.rom in Gpad702 rom.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parastie:
Exactly, you must use the FWDN tool to flash your device.
