Hi!

First, please excuse my english... =S

I've bought this tablet: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/7-capa...-wifi-3d-acceleration-1-2ghz-ddr3-512mb-81644 and I tried a FW upgrade to solve some minor issues using this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98fGgLPRAt4&feature=player_embedded#

but now won't boot! I just see the fish and the bubbles but like in a 16 bits resolution, with colors all messed up, and doesn't do anything else (the screen looks like this one: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16608800&postcount=237). The whole procedure didn't report any issues but now I'm stuck with a "fail safe mode" or something like that.

I've been told that the problem is that I used a file (lk.rom) for 1024x600 instead of a 800x480 one, and I need to get correct ROM files for 800x480 model.

I tried with DX but they just avoid giving me what I need...

So the bottom line is: I'm loooking for the original files of this item. If anyone else bought it and has that rom backed up, or still using as it arrived, or maybe if someone has made a custom rom for this tablet (800x480), please contact me! Thanks!

Here's what I know about the tablet:

MID TCC8803 Cortex A8 with android 2.3.3, somewhere in the user manual says LY-F521, and in the chinese part of that manual also says EM72/EM73, surrounded by characters that I don't understand.

Has HDMI, Camera, capacitive touchscreen.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!

Here's some other stuff I took notes of before bricking it:

Thanks!

Hola Tengo la misma tableta y el mismo problema. ¿ conseguiste la rom ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deletes:
No, still no luck... =(

However, if you also bought it from DX, maybe you can start a complaint (I did) and see if between us both we can put some pressure on them, to make them send that FW to us...

Anyway, if something changes I'll let you know.

Saludos!

-------------------

Spanish:

No, todavía no hubo suerte... =(

Sin embargo, si también la compraste por DX, quizá podrías iniciar una queja (yo ya lo hice) y vemos si entre los dos podemos preisonarlos para que nos envíen el FW....

En cualquier caso, si algo cambia te haré saber.

Regards.

I also bought this tablet on DealExtreme, after much searching on google I found the manufacturer's website and has firmware update, the site is only in Chinese. The model of our tablet is the LY-F21:

And I also found a forum that explains how to ROOT and other things:

Similar MID Tablet

I purchased a couple of these:

They have very similar specs to the one you listed, and are manufactured by MID. Possibly the same except the outer housing? I'm happy to try and make a backup for you if you'd like to try it. I don't have a recovery rom on it however, so I'm not certain how to do the backup.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidwheaty:
i have the same as this (just re-branded) JDC touchtab2 (Google it not aloud to post links)

and flashed CM7 bad mistake as its rubbish:/ so i need back up because the one i did didn't work for some reason it says there's no MD5 checksum :/

i would be happy to help you set up recovery (if you havent already) if you could do me a backup??? PM it would be much appreciated :)

[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
Hi guys,

going to get a HTC Sensation today, played with it in a store and its basic functions appeal to me more than Galaxy S2.

Ok the S2 had that extra bit of "snappiness" about, the Sensation felt heavier both in physical weight and response :)

Anyway, couple of questions:

- can i remove any of the 7 homescreens?

- any guaranteed way to increase the snappiness/response on stock ROM?

- can i remove any apps i don't need (used system app remover on my old SGS1)?

THanks!
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
1. No. You can use a different launcher

2. Yes, custom ROMs and/or overclock

3. Yes, but you need root

¤Violets are red,

Roses are blue,

Wait, what?¤
[HTC Sensation] old_god:
In short: yes to all of the above.

You would mainly resort to install custom ROMs.

The first ROM I tried was Senseless 2.5 and the phone visibly flies. YMMV. Feel free to browse around!

Even if you don't want custom ROMs, you can still just root and remove the apps yourself (read a bit before removing apps that may break Sense)

edit: Sorry, misread the first question. As idavid_ said, to edit the homescreens just use a different launcher. If you want it to be fast and customizable, try ADW.Launcher
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
thanks for the replies!

senseless certainly seems quick probably because it doesn't have....sense? :)

but sense 3.0 is one of the main reasons i got the HTC and i would like to keep and use it...i'm not a fan of quadrant benchmarks and dont really care about numbers but if i can make the phone a bit quicker what ROM do you recommend?

i usually look first at the ROMs that have most replies/views and that seems to be Revolution HD...which theoretically means it has the largest user base right? :)

last but not least i'm waiting for it to charge above 35% so i can install the 2.3.4 OTA update...maybe that's a bit snappier than 2.3.3 it came with...

oh couple of things:

-can i just update weather without having to use location services all the time?

-the HTC unlock site seems to list the Sensation as supported for bootloader unlock...should i do it? would this make rooting & installing custom ROMs easier?

- does any of the custom ROMs include the new "enhanced" camera apk&profiles that allow up to 40mbps bitrates?
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
2.3.4 update is definitely faster than 2.3.3, so do it.

And answers:

1. Unless your city is on the list, then no

2. You have to unlock the bootloader if you want custom ROM. However, do it with Revolutionary (revolutionary.io). That way HTC won't know that you unlocked it and won't void warranty because you can reverse it (read the sticky in development)

3. Not sure about that, but you can get it in any ROM if you install/flash it

¤Violets are red,

Roses are blue,

Wait, what?

I have no idea what I'm saying,

But you lost the game¤
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
thanks man, will try more tomorrow!

got the 2.3.4 OTA, it feels a bit faster already...

also screenshot function now seems to work, it didn't before in 2.3.3

one thing i noticed after using it for couple of hours: it will really warm my pockets in winter!!!! :)

let's see how the battery is doing after a couple of charges....by the way, is a factory reset needed after installing 2.3.4 OTA?

[HTC EVO 3D] bslim11:
I just moved and the comcast guy came over to hook up my internet. I know he was messing around with my computer because he told me he was having problems with it. When he left I went and plugged my phone into the usb and didnt get the option to connect to the Mac. Has this ever happened to anyone and does anyone know how to fix it? Before he came I used my Sprint hotspot on the computer, could that cause a problem also? I want to flash roms again haha!!
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
I'm not familiar with Macs, other than FreeBSD OS X is based off of. Hot spot shouldn't have any impact on the connection.

I know its a basic step, but have you tried restarting both the phone and the computer? Sometimes both computer and phone can become finicky to auto detecting the USB connection.

If you've already restarted both and still have the issue, I don't think you need any drivers for the Mac OS X, should be able to use adb directly from the terminal?

Another place on the EVO 3D to check for settings, Settings -> Connect to PC. You can change the default behavior and also make sure its still toggled ON to prompt when connected to a PC (Mac, same thing).

Sorry the suggestions are very elementary, there really shouldn't be too much of an issue around this type of basic USB connection. Hope the suggestions help resolve the issue!

Lost my phone, waited around for a couple days and didn't get it back.. So I decided to file an insurance claim with Asurion for a lost phone and everything went smoothly. A couple hours later, a good samaritan found and returned my phone to me.. I am calling to cancel and they are being a huge hassle and saying I might not even get my deductible back. It's labor day weekend and my phone is supposed to come on Wednesday so they definitely havent shipped it out yet. If they are being a hassle and not wanting to cancel it can I just keep the refurbed phone they are sending and sell it? My old phone I have is working just fine.

It's a droid charge by the way.

Refuse delivery on package from UPS or FEDEX and call sprint care and have them release the ESN via the repassist chat. You will be good to go, Make sure the Sprint rep notates this so IF you have an issues later with the bill you will be able to use the memo ID from CARE

Ok,

Before people start complaining I should not post this: I have searched the forum and have not found a solution. Therefore please let me specifically describe my situation and please when responding, be accurate, exact, non-ambiguous, complete, and correct.

I have a Chinese TF101 with build HRI66.CN_epad-8.2.3.13-20110511 (I assume that translates to build 8.2.3.13)

I tried running the ROOT guide located in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17285912#post17285912

Followed by never ending silence and no Root.

Someone told me that this guide does not work on my build standard, and gave me links to windows/linux root guides.

These don't work because I have a Mac. I do not have windows and I do not have linux, I only have Mac, and I know no one with a PC that I can borrow for this exercise, so it has to be done from my Mac and not any other platform.

What I want is:

1) Root my TF101

2) get CWM on there

3) get the latest Prime ROM on there.

Can someone please explain to me what I need to do to get prime 1.8 installed on build 8.2.3.13 of a chinese TF101?

Sorry if I sound direct, but I know very little about this stuff and so far I have found nothing that works. Since I know nearly nothing other than how to follow accurate complete correct unambiguous instructions, I would love it if someone can actually provide me with those.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
That method only work for 8.2.3.9 or lower.

8.2.3.13 and up use NVFlash method.

Also since you're on 8.2.3.13 you have the option to downgrade to 8.2.3.9.

After which you can root and install an updated root rom

If you do something like using Titanium to backup the APK of the launcher, you should be able to unpack the apk on your computer and find the wallpaper file for it.

and sorry for my bad english. :D
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
First of all, it sounds as if your board isn't broken, if they say there is a software fix. Could it have run out of battery at a critical point when you were doing something, like flashing a ROM, or something else?

What were you doing or what had you done before it wouldn't wake up?

There's a Motorola Factory Cable that you can buy (or make if you are really enterprising) that can bring the Xoom back from a bricked state (at least most bricked states). Maybe that's what they're planning to use.

Here is the link to the Motorola Factory cable:

So you can't get the Motorola logo screen at all...it's fully charged but nothing happens no matter what buttons you press? If you know how to get to recovery, I'm just trying to confirm that you have tried all of that. And if that's the case, and it just won't do anything, are you interested in trying the factory cable? Or else I guess you can wait and get the firmware fix. That's better than nothing, but it's hard to understand what happened. One more question, did you encrypt the Xoom? I hear that sometimes that adds complexity to a recovery operation.

thanks for your helping i tried anything that you menioned i think they thinking that i bricked my xoom during the unlock process i'm the first one that came to repair this device although this is authorized motorola repair center now i want to send the device to us for the repair,yesterday i talked with motorola israel they want me to pay for the check a 30$$$ !!!! what should i do :mad:
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
I think you should get it repaired. If they will do it in Israel for a reasonable price, do it there but if US Motorola will fix it under warranty, that would be good too. You need to have your Xoom fixed so you can use it.
