i have this FWTool in my menu it says something about updating firmware but i dont know if i should try it.

DO NOT USE FWTOOL TO INSTALL RECOVERY!

i'll try cyanogen next when i have time

if anyone need the kernel message log (rooted and after factory reset), let me know

if you can, please try to install recovery.zip from *stock recovery*. it should work, and if it works, it's easy way to install clockworkmod.

cyanogenmod is just for someone who really like cm. not for daily use, e.g. hw codecs don't work ;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunnlan:
sure

1. get this file :Telepad7C_M708_Telechip8803_Root_Recovery

search for it, i can't post any url yet (need at least 8 post)

2. install the motorola driver

3. there's a how to in the file, but i didn't follow it

instead i just do adb remount, shell and copy the new su and then install superuser from market. done.

will do .. ill post how it goes

the hardware it self is what you get for the price

it's decent enough to use for browsing, reading and media player, even gaming if you like

the battery is bad, standby of ~8h and ~3-4h for continuous usage

the screen is dark and have limited view angle, but bear in mind it's not samsung galaxy's amoled :lol:

it's good for daily use and if you dont expect much for the money you spend

it's bad because kogan tells a lot of crap! if you follow the story from their first ad you will know what i mean :mad:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wlee2:
mm was not quite the step by step i wanted more so interested where to download those files quick get your 8 post =P

i agree mostly with what you said Re Kogan tablet battery life is bad it wont survive a full day at work with constant use.

i dont mine the screen all so much it runs angry birds quite well i personally see the view angle thing as a Plus since most people put up privacy screens to stop people from looking in on what we are doing the kogan one does it straight out of the box lOL..

i got the first batch from kogan was a lOng wait but i am glad it was upgraded a bit after the Wait i still think if you bought 2 or 3 of them in one shipping and 3 friends needing it at the cheapest live price at $139 its worth it for a sub 200 tablet

for your 120 bucks more you can try to find a samsung galaxy tab in aus but its pretty hard find now i managed to get hold of one ..

Ok Hi im new to this.

Just bought a tablet from china. It should be very fast but im not even able to watch a movieclip trough the browser without any stuttering.

I want to try a custom rom. I do see jrocks talk about a tablet with the same specs as my tablet has, but in the end it has a different name.

Several asian companies are naming this model: mid070T3

It´s a telechips evalution board m801

Hi blackheartxix

I guess you're from china. Are you able to find the eeprom/fw for the touchscreen if it has an capacitive screen.. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fun_:
it seems your EM73 has 4k pagesize NAND. probably EM73 2.3.3 ROM will work... but please don't do it soon.

you need to update bootloader(lk.rom file) because of partition size difference. but bootloader is most important software on your tablet.

if new lk.rom file in 2.3.3 rom doesn't work on your EM73 by some reason, your tablet will be bricked. if you don't have lk.rom for your current rom, you can't back to 2.2.1 rom after 2.3.3 flashed. even if 2.3.3 rom works, some part of your hardware may not work if your EM73 isn't 100% same as 2.3.3 EM73.

I recommend you to backup current rom, but it may be unusable if you can't back to 2.2.1 rom.

can you accept these risks?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackheartxix:
i understand the risk for i have x5a before and able to upgrade from Android 2.1 to 2.2 on that device before i sold it..

now on this device..ill back up all the data first..1.)data.img 2.)system.img3.)boot.img.. before proceeding to upgrade to 2.3.3..

although the device is exactly the same as EM73..but Device Info shows a different version..this is not as easy as my former x5a before..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fun_:
I see. if you want, I don't stop flashing 2.3.3 rom without backup ;)

to make complete backup, please dump recovery partition 1st and send it to me. then I'll make clockworkmod to dump other partitions.

you need adb or terminal app like connectbot to use shell. on shell, run below command

dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd6 of=/sdcard/recovery.img

you need to insert sdcard but do not mount it from PC.

you'll get 10MB recovery.img on sdcard. please check.

Did anyone else try Skype? I've installed sync updater for contacts which allows contacts to work (sort of). It's possible that Skype crashes because it looks for this.

Contacts.apk does not work for me, even though replacement contact programs do work. Skype will crash if I ask it to pull my devices contacts, I'm guessing it's because Contacts.apk does not work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doortodoorsalesman:
Go to settings, wireless&Network,

Turn off WiFi

Plug in 3g dongle

Go into mobile networks, network operators, select network and or select automatic.

Go back to wireless networks and turn on 3g

Once your dongle has fired up you should see signal bars at the top of your screen and a 3g symbol.

Go into mobile networks, access point names.

Press menu button and select reset to factory.

Or you can select add APN, then put in your networks Apn details.

If you google APN settings you should find lots of sites that list all the settings for different networks.

It's not an exact science it still takes me a while to get it working, sometimes I will restart the tablet with the 3g dongle plugged in.

If you use dolphin browser you can set it to desktop so when browsing you see pages in desktop view not mobile view, as some websites will only give you the mobile view if you use the standard browser.

Hello,

One thing to try for those of you who can't get Skype working is a simple build prop mod. This may or may not work for you but does work on X5AG and 7015 models so it is worth a try. Find the line in your build prop that says: ro.kernel.android.checkjni=1 Using a text editor make it say: ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0 Save this mod before exiting and reboot. Try loging into Skype now, you might be plesently suprised.
