good chance the crane is similar to mine

I am working on a polaroid pmid701c running onda vx610w ics firmware. There seem to be several of these popping up based on a crane motherboard, only big differences seems to be how much ram and flash they have onboard. The next thing has been finding a way into recovery with hardware keys, not sure if there is a way at the moment since it looks like all keys make it boot to fel inthe a10. I will find a way though, and CWM is good for more than just recovery.

Note there is a gingerbread rom there too, but I am looking more at the ics

hi all!

o.k i have momo9c with the latest GB rom from ployer and i tried to install the CWM recovery. Before installing the recovery i copied all the files to the root of the sd card and tested the reboot-recovery.sh and it sucessfully rebooted to the stock recovery. I then finally rebooted and run install-recovery.sh double checking that i had recovery.cpio on root of my sd card not the ex-sd. The script ran sucessfully giving the message

11675 blocks

done

#

I took a breath and run the reboot-recovery.sh and it rebooted.

Result: i got a blank black screen with no indication if my tablet is on or off.

Investigation: I pluged in my USB cable and checked adb devices and it showed device in recovery mode.

Help required: I am stuck please please tell me what did i missed! my tablet boots normally but where is the recovery ? why the screen is balnk. i tried it twice but the result is same.

can i get my stock recovery back :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
I guess kernel modules to show display was not loaded. sorry, currently I'm working for ICS ROM and I don't have time for GB ROM.

please flash stock recovery image, or flash whole ROM image.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sabercatpuck:
Oh, and a few requested files

Here are the dumps you requested in the first post. Needed a minute with ADB to get em
[Miscellaneous Android Development] esyne:
thanks to fan_,it's also working on my Ployer Momo8 business edition(Momo8A)

and now just installed it and backup my rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kriaz:
I searched a lot but could't find the stock recovery for momo9c. Plz con you share the link.

what about kernel modules for display..any settings/tweaks/hack that i can do to load these modules..

I am disapointed with ICS and want to stick with GB but i need CWM or any other recovery with backup option

Hi, I have an all winner a10 tablet, but not one on the list. At this moment I am just interested in installing cwm on it for the moment . Can I do that safely by using the first part of the instructions?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
I don't know about your tablet so I can't answer your question.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
I guess you have latest GB rom from ployer.

as I said, I don't have enough time to do something for GB rom now

(and no progress for ICS rom...)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Misterjokerboy:
I guess that actually answers the question, I was basically asking if it was possible to brick a tablet just by trying to install cwm the way you described. Your answer suggests that it is, so thanks :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 79bass:
So.. do you mean that your CWM recovery and CM9 will work on my D90W?

Thanks for your work!

I was thinking to compile CWM for my D90W, but I cant find how... and I don't know if I screw the recovery partition I still can flash afterwards (with the LiveSuit crap...)

thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Syke42:
I won't say you can't brick your tablet, but A10 tablets are extremely hard to brick. Usually you just need the original firmware .img file and you can use LiveSuit to put it back on the tablet.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Misterjokerboy:
That's good to know. Have the files already on my pc at home, so might give it a go. Thanks :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Syke42:
Personally, I've loaded every firmware I can find onto my tablet. It's no surprise that some work very very badly. But I have always been able to get it back to factory using LiveSuit. The key is to make sure to power off the tablet. Once it's powered off, LiveSuit can do its magic.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Misterjokerboy:
Lol, don't say that, I won't stop messing around with it :D

You can tell me know software is used for modify clockworkmod's source? I'm new member and want to learn about android, hope you will help me.

Thanks :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 79bass:
:( maybe.. but it runs only on windows.. and I haven't any windows in years, I just used it from a friends computer.

I have to setup a virtual machine just for that if I don't find an alternative...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vampirefo:
This is the only downside of the app, I use it often, I have bricked my tablet 3 times on purpose to see if Livesuite was able to fix it, and every time the app fixes the tablet.

I am a Linux only user, except for needing windows for this one app, to work on my tablet. XP is cheap I got a copy at flea market for 3 dollars, I just moved One of my Linux OS to another partition and installed XP then rerun Grub so the MBR is correct.

I use this recovery on my Ployer MOMO8, works perfectly,.

Thanks fun_ for all your work on this recovery, much appreciated.

Black screen in recovery

Hi all,

I had installed the GB recovery.cpio on a previous Scroll Excel and it went fine. Using menu+power I was able to boot to recovery and all was well. However that Excel suffered from a row of dead pixels and went back.

I recently got a replacement and repeated the install. It all appeared to work however when booting into recovery I get a back screen.

If I use adb devices with a USB lead attached I get:

List of devices attached
20080411	recovery

I can "adb shell" and view the running processes including /sbin/recovery.

# adb shell ps
PID USER VSZ STAT COMMAND
1 root 292 S /init
...
70 root 4800 S /sbin/recovery
71 root 3412 S /sbin/adbd recovery
...
84 root 1824 S /sbin/sh -c ps
85 root 1828 R ps

Is it an issue with a screen driver or backlight? I have attached the output of dmesg once recovery has booted, gathered via adb. The device works fine in "Normal Boot" mode.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Cheers

I don't know what I own...

I haven't a clue what tablet I've bought, but it runs gingerbread 2.3.4, calls itself a 97FC and was bought as a 'NATPC M009s' from Amazon.

Here's the specs:

Display	7.0 inch, Resolution: 800*480. Capacitive Touch Screen, 5 point touch

CPU/Chipset: ALLWINNER A10 1.2GHz

Memory: DDR3	512 MB

Storage:	Build-in 4GB (8GB Optional ), TF card extendable 1GB-32GB

PC Interface:	mini USB * 1

System:	Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread

Flash	Support: Yes, Adobe Flash 10.3

Internet Access:	Built-in Wifi IEEE 802.11b/g 11Mbps to 54Mbps

3G External

Camera:	1.3 MP camera in the front

Battery:	Built-in Lithium Battery: 3600 mAh (working time: 4~5 hours).

Dimensions: 197mm*121mm*11mm

Net Weight:	350g

I've read on Amazon that it is also known as the LYF1, but there is also a lot of confusion over who bought what, as a lot of the tablets seem to be slightly different.

Help would be much appreciated :)

Liam
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fonix232:
By the specs, it seems to be an LY-F1. If you have three capacitive buttons on the right side of the screen, and a status LED in the upper right corner (in landscape view), then it's defo an Aurora Pioneer (LY-F1's manufacturing name).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] liamhyde:
Thanks for the reply! I emailed the seller on amazon and was given this link !!www . asianfonesforum . com/showthread . php?2599-NATPC-M009S-Capacitive-useful-apps-and-Firmware!!

It has all the instruction and firmwares. To all those who have the NATPC M009S, or the 97FC, follow the above without spaces!

:D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
I think so.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ptbw:
Any ideas where I should start looking?

BTW I did find this useful patch to allow command line nandroid backups to be taken. (Add back the https)

github.com/dweinstein/android_bootable_recovery/commit/3fdb0a9b9a08aa8e436e7b0449d0941d8a926465

So I can at least take a backup in recovery now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
sorry, I don't have time for everything and especially for GB rom.

please replace drivers with proper one.

if you are using adb shell to make backup, then you may use tar or something to make backup without patch.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ptbw:
Thanks anyway. I did replace the recovery drivers with those from the system partition and recovery appears to be working successfully.

For the record this is a Scroll Excel build 97F2-D1-H1-H01-1748.20120307 and it appears to have different display and camera modules from previous Excel tabs.

Cheers
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samtruman:
Please can you tell me what version of recovery did you use?

The aurora/elf, Advanced or Advanced II ? Thank you
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
thank you for your information.

I heard old(?) excel was 97F1. I can understand inet makes several 97F1/97F2 models and SO sells different models w/o notification...

I guess your tablet has 1.3M or 2M pix camera. I'm not sure display is different.

CWM problem on your tablet is software compatibility problem. my CWM for GB ROM uses files from ainol's last GB ROM, released last December. I guess it may not work with newer GB ROM.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ahmish:
is the dev still making updates for allwinners?

hey guys. new to this thread. are there any updates on CM9? am using ainol novo advanced II, and from what i experienced this unit has few to non developers. very sad to say

anyway if only you have free time
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kriaz:
thanks

i reflashed stock rom and tried again. Finally i got the CWM running.

conclusion: CWM runs on stock roms.

need to know: what display updates doesn't allow CWM and how to change them to be able to work CWM on latest GB roms

---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ----------

How did you replaced the recovery drivers. can you post step by step guide.

one more thing the log that you attached showed a lot of info about bluetooth.!

does your tablet have builtin bluetooth?

Icoo D80 compatible?

I was able to get the output for dmesg and getevent.

However with the find command it said it was not found.

I have attached them. Please let me know if you think CWM and CM9 will be compatible.

Thanks,
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
thank you for your information.

generally speaking, CWM/CM9 for other tablets is not compatible for your tablet. you need to use CWM/CM9 for your tablet.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
CWM/CM9 can run on Aurora. it's confirmed by some person several weeks ago.

all I need is time to finish my work...

XdxH62,

thank you for your assistance!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
I made CM7 (for Adv1) very beginning in this thread, then I switched to make CM9. no plan to make CM7, sorry.

I don't use stock ICS roms. I don't know how sucks. I don't know any relation to my CM9 about it.

I don't think my CM9 is perfect. I recommend you should not expect perfectness to my outputs.

this thread is CM9 dev thread, not "find out/give me best rom" thread.

thank you for your cooperation.

cwm on ICOO D90W

After pondering the risk I gived a try to CWM to my D90W.

After checking the various /dev/block/nand* dumps of the ICOO D90W we can state that have the recovery in /dev/block/nandg, as the ainol models.

after decompressing the dumped img from nandg I didn't detect any major difference in the default.prop and in the key configuration of the cwm recovery.img (I can tell only few differences on the fstab)

So I just run the install recovery, accepting the risk, that's all.

I can't find the key combination to boot directly on recovery (that's an hassle...)

however reboot-recovery runs well.

The CWM run smootly, the only thing it's swapped upside down, but it's fine.

Vol+/- is up/down (not sure about which is which now), back button is back and power is select.

First thing I've tried to mount /sdcard, which is the external sd, not the internal partition.

then I made a backup of the current system (it worked) to the internal disk, that's the big partition /dev/block/nandi (~12 Gb).

I felt confident and I've intalled the a10_update.zip for the ainol.. but that's not working. no touchscreen basically, and still the upside down problem.

Also I've noticed that the g-sensor is probably not working...

I've compile a kernel 3.3.something fom my d90w from hno github repository... I might give it a try if I have time...

Anyway CM9 does not work as it is.

Logged in with adb shell, and rebooted to recovery with the built-in reboot-recovery.sh (cant' find out how to hw reboot).

restored from the internal disk... truble are over, my previously ics is restored now.

Overall was a good experience, my tablet have at least cwm now.

Thanks fun_!!!

I've attached the files you need (those you said in the 1st page)

First thing I have to fint how to boot directly to cwm, otherwise weird experiments (like no booting kernels) will force me to install windows somewhere...

Thanks again!! I hope to help if I'm able to/have the time
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fun_:
thank you for your information.

but sorry, please understand why I wrote "DO NOT USE..." on my page/post#1.

all my files are free, please use freely at your own risk. but I hope my file will not be distributed *for other purpose*. I felt trouble when someone distribute my CWM for NOVO7 Advanced as for NOVO7 Aurora. I had to say "please use correct one on my site" when I got reports like "hey fun it doesn't work fine". it's just a waste of time.

and I need to ask you... when/where you collect your information? on stock rom? which version?

or on my CM9 for other tablet? then it must be wrong information.

I can guess, but it may not be correct.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 79bass:
I've take the infotmation from runnig D90W firmware 4.0.311 1.0.... the most recent for my tablet I know.

About the recovery boot... I mounted the fat partition nanda, and i've niticed is using u-boot. Also there is only linux/linux.ini and none linux/recovery.ini (i don't know if it does any difference).. I'm not able to find the hardware button triggering the recv...(I've even checked on the board if it was marked on it :P).

Sorry I know you said everywere do not try for othr device..but I felt confident :)... also I backed up all the partitions before attempting anything. And I've checked really carefully before try it... I don't want to push people to try this as well..sorry

If you decompile a LiveSuit .img, one of the files is sys_config1.fex. At the end of the file I found this:

[recovery_key]
key_min	=4
key_max	=6

My guess is those need to be adjusted to enable booting into recovery on a bootup keypress. I think to tweak that file you need to rebuild the LiveSuit .img file.

Default good chance the crane is similar to mine

I am working on a polaroid pmid701c running onda vx610w ics firmware. There seem to be several of these popping up based on a crane motherboard, only big differences seems to be how much ram and flash they have onboard. The next thing has been finding a way into recovery with hardware keys, not sure if there is a way at the moment since it looks like all keys make it boot to fel inthe a10. I will find a way though, and CWM is good for more than just recovery.

http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.p...r-the-PMID701C

Note there is a gingerbread rom there too, but I am looking more at the ics

Since then there have been several stock ROM's made and Polaroid finally released their version the other day. There are at least 3 platforms now that we know of, though the big difference between 2 of them is just that the screen rotation is different. The third looks like it is running an A13 instead of the A10. I included the dumps you were looking for too.

(specifically posts 471 and 474)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 79bass:
Wow that's interesting. My guessing was that the boot.im is not "recovery enabled". I had a look to the boot fat partition and I saw a couple of thing I didn't saw on http://rhombus-tech.net/allwinner_a10/a10_boot_process/ or http://elinux.org/Hack_A10_devices.

The D90W is using u-boot to boot the partition, normally the process sould involve linux.ini to boot linux and recovery.ini to boot into recovery... I'm missing recovery.ini in my partition (for those with "recoverable" can be easy to check if they have linux/u-boot.img and linux/recovery.ini in the nanda partition). I'm not expert on u-boot at all, I don't know if it accept some sort of argument to decide which partition to boot.

Probably I'm just over-thinking, the u-boot is evidently able somehow to boot into recovery, the problem is the "pre-boot" phase... So you are saying I might tweak the original .img firmware in order to change the hw behavior in "turn-it-on" phase?.

Any ideas how to create/recreate a livesuite image? The risk is that I'm going to screw-up the hardware key configuration for good and I would not even able to use livesuite anymore...

I don't understand really much.. the livesuite process is triggered from the RECV pin and the USB host communication. But.. is the RECV pin also responsible for the boot into recovery? In the D90W that's Vol+ plus Power (pressed 5 or 9 times for 1 or 2 seconds)
