RockChip 2906 tablet

I am having the same problem with an inexpensive tablet I bought on amazon. Tried multiple different USB drivers for MOMO9 and Allwinner tablets but the PC (either Win7 or XP) will only see tablet as USB mass storage. ADB Devices returns a blank list. I have asked the seller to see if they can provide USB drivers specific to the model they sent me but no reply as of yet. The specs for my tablet are below:

Model Number - RK702

Android Version - 4.0.4

Kernel Version - 3.0.8+ root@ubuntu64 #156

Build Number - Rockchip 2906

I am trying to root. Any help is appreciated.

Hi

i have bought an inexpensive tablet too. The Omega OT107.

I can already use adb on that mashine, but i have no luck to get root or even break the bootloader. ( if someone could help me , it would be great)

if you are interrested how to make adb working just drop me some lines and i will give you the details. You will need linux or ( if i find the link again than) windows 7

Add unknown device to adb

These are on Linux, so if you're using Windows, it sucks to be you :)

Add the device in udev like so (my vendor ID in a TP10A GBD is 18d1, My Ampe 10A is 2207), in the file

/etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18da", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2207", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev

restart udev: sudo udevadm control --reload-rule

Then add the VID in your $HOME/.android/adb_usb.ini like so:

0x18d1

0x2207

Then restart the server adb kill-server

adb start-server

Works for all the devices that don't show up with adb devices.

Cheers.

I have not moved or changed locations or anything but after updating the newest samsung firmware (on friday) my phone is now 100% of the time roaming. I've checked the network settings and it says Tmobile in there as it should (i'm on Tmobile in america with the i9300).

Is there something i did wrong? I updated it with Kies, what can i do to downgrade back to the old firmware if i get tired of this roaming business?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vegeta1:
try changing your modem
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red Wolf:
How did you be able to update your i9300 cause i am using i9300 and t-mobile as well. But no update for me at all. :(

I am located in NY btw so do you think I have to wait or not gonna get the update at all :eek:

Edit, Just updated mine via odin and working good
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electricview:
I am not sure, but its funny my friend has the BLUE i9300 bought 3 weeks after mine, and he was not getting a notification of the update via kies either, but it did give it to me and my phone the exact day it was out (uk firmware).

about changing the modem, will I need to root for that? i prefer to run stock for now..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] penfold:
that's bizarre but it probably has something to do with the phone being an internation model with a uk csc, but i've used my S1 from the uk several times in the u.s. with t-mobile and never had that problem .....can only assume it is a bug
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electricview:
Yea becuase when the phone arrived it worked great (even had a minor firmware upgrade the day i opened which was like june 15th ish or a few days later) and still worked great, no Roaming at all, then with last weeks update now it roams :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netarchy:
It's worth pointing out that changing the modem will not work as a valid solution in this case. If one uses a non-LFB modem with the LFB ROM, the mic doesn't get used. One would have to also go to an older rom in addition to a different modem.

Hi guys,

Didn`t find answer for my questions, so decided to link myself to similar topic.

Since the SW update I have done today my phone doesn`t lock to a network

When I go to settings to find a carrier manually, It takes about 2 minutes to find 4-5 networks available around, I am picking o2 UK (as I have a contract with them) and it says : Registering to o2 UK which takes about 4 minutes. After this it says : Emergency calls only and there is no status bars at all.

Master reset didn`t help.

What steps should I take ?

For you reference :

- Phone took from CPW in UK as sim free

- SIM Card used is from o2 UK (contract)

- I don`t want to flash anything, I would like to stay to stock ROM (if possible)

UPDATE : Chosen `Select Automaticly` allowed the phone to find signal, could make a call etc, but after 30 minutes lost signal again....

Hey guys,

any solution?

my phone is suffering from the same problem!

phone got from India,

however when i contacted T-mobile they said am not on roaming!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatekills:
U Using it in india? Which network u using?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javacody:
Any updates?

I did find out that the CSC that was applied by default was KOR. I went in and changed this to BTU using *#272*imei#, but still did not solve the issue.

Wondering if a repartition would help?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zodiaxe66:
If u do not wish to root then your only option is to take it back to the store, so they can fix, u bought the best smart phone available on the market and u can't make phone calls or browse internet(without wifi).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electricview:
To my understanding, still no resolution on this..

My friends phone after being updated (he just got his first update after having the phone a month) is now roaming as well.. So this is definately something either with our network (t-mobile) or the recent updates.

I've just started living with it, but it sucks becuase it does silly things like makes me click 'download image' when someone sends me a picture message in text...

with the few bugs could be ironed out of this phone kinda frustrating.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marshal:
I do have similar problems since I installed an update 2 weeks ago. at home the phone says it is roaming at work approx 6 miles away and with a different station I am connecting to it is fine.

t-mobile USA
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electricview:
Thats interesting, no matter where I go i get roaming. Though a few times I have gotten the 'roaming' warning popped up, so maybe i went out of roaming and didnt know it? I'll keep a closer eye on it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javacody:
It is very frustrating and annoying. I've called T-Mobile and they said they would open a case with Samsung. If you guys could call too, we might get a fix.

I really suspect it is something in the CSC. Maybe if we could get the T Mobile SIII CSC and apply it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javacody:
My suspicion is wrong. I pulled the TMB CSC from a T999 ROM and manually copied it to /system/csc/TMB, then used the CSC Selector App to change to TMB.

No dice. Still in Roaming.
[HTC One S] Hgaara:
I had this phone since it came out, and rooted and S-Off and I had tons of issues. Such as Wifi disconnecting and needing to restart the phone in order for it to work, also sometimes Wifi slowed down to a super crawl. Random reboots, etc. But this probably could of been credited to me dropping it all the time and messing up the internals.

I returned it and got a new one, updated to the latest and haven't rooted. Battery life is amazing, but too much bloatware!!!! Can I root and s-off the latest tmobile software? Cause I tried running the older RUU and that failed to install on my phone.
[HTC One S] xxquicksh0txx:
Um... S-off? The One S?

But yeah unlocking and rooting should be no problem, just use htcs unlock method...
[HTC One S] pvaldeben:
You are saying that HTC them selves provided a rooting guide? If so can you provide a link for HTC Unlock method.

Thanks in advance
[HTC One S] baseballfanz:
No HTC does not provide a rooting guide. They simply make it easy for you to unlock the bootloader using http://www.htcdev.com/

Once the bootloader is unlock you can root via a few method. There's plenty of sticky thread in the dev section.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Samsung hasn't included Dropbox to sit idly.

I recommend the following:

Titanium Backup to external Sd and Dropbox

Dropsync to sync your files during the night

Sms Backup+ to have a copy of Sms/Call log on Gmail

Sync contacts to Google

Of course a local Nas is better if you don't have a flatrate or a slow internet connection.

However then you'll add a further device where stuff can potentially go wrong.

I prefer offsite. At least when your house burns down and you loose everything you know that your party pictures noone cares about (including you) are safely stored away.

Yes, I just purchased a brand new Samsung Galaxy Nexuse 16GB for $400 here in my country (UAE) so yes now I am back with the sweetest revenge, for the best total pure android experience, was so darn close to becoming an iSheep few minutes ago!:laugh:

So my question is how will I update to 4.0.4 or even 4.1(is it official already)? I was using a SI9000 from before(legendary device btw) and was left at experiencing the beta ICS 4.0 Roms, Now I need refreshers LOL

Thanks!

more power XDA!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blankit:
It should come with 4.04. Already
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theshawty:
United Arab Emirates? Then the phone must be made out of pure gold with pieces of diamonds, diamond engravings and a hint of platinum and cost 400 thousand dollars :p

Just kidding. Welcome to the Galaxy Nexus world! :D

4.1 will be pushed via an OTA update if it is not already shipped with 4.1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcagara08:
Wow thanks all of you for the warm welcome..uhm the phone is still in 4.0.2 guys,

I tried to check the software updates in the about phone section but it says it is up to date? I quite have forgotten what to do? start with unlocking the bootloader and root this baby?

Unfortunately it is still plastic, maybe I would consider to pimp up this phone with diamonds and gold LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
You have a non-yakju or takju device (just firmware code names), meaning you're updated by Samsung, not Google. These updates are slower. You can switch to takju/yakju manually if you'd like, quite easily. You'll continue to be stock but just be on a different update path.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcagara08:
unfortunately my product model is yakjujp, is this a good info? or should I convert it to "yakju" alone product code? yes I have seen few threads or posts that I could be able to convert my device to these names.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Unlawful:
If you want only the latest builds then yes, it would be best to swap to yakju so you don't suffer horrible delays in receiving the latest and greatest.

i had yakjuxw, changed to yakju and got 4.0.4 straight away. do it mate. you'll get 4.1 first using this way. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aeoveu:
PS: yakju OR takju - there's no difference except for the inclusion of Google Wallet in takju - which won't work outside the US anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcagara08:
Wow thank you for all the replies guys, I have managed to convert my yakjujp device to the yakju=maguro product name via this very very helpful Galaxy Nexus Toolkit 7.0 program and luckily it was free for a noobie like me, I am really in state of shock after being away for a year from android, now all I need to have is this Toolkit that takes commands and do the essential tasks there in itself. What I did is I downloaded the drivers, the galaxy nexus toolkit, and the google factory image for 4.0.4 IMM76I and bam now I am in 4.0.4 with unlocked bootloader, root, cwm an ehem the apps and games. Can't wait for the OTA Jelly Bean update. Are the Custom ROMS (JB) now could be as daily drivers? My geeky and nerdy self have been awakened!

I had Foxhound 0.7 and upgraded to 0.8 using Foxhound updater with no problems at all. When update 0.9 it does not seem to register that I have updated. The update Rom is in the notification bar and when I download it I get md5 failed, so I went into cwm manually and installed 0.9 but even though I have 0.9 installed the updater says I have 0.8 and keeps putting the notification up. What am I doing wrong.

Just checked ebay and the lumia 900's value is just around the same as a Samsung focus, lol. I was looking to unload this one come the fall for a WP8 but it seems that I will have to keep it as my backup phone. Well, I found a useful way of killing time while I wait for WP8 to come around, Ive been engraving on the back of this bad boy. The polycarbonate is great for engraving. Got a nice superman logo done as well as a windows 8 logo. I'll post some pics when I clean the whole thing up.
[Nokia Lumia 900] efektos:
Dude, all cell-phones values are declining after a short while - those who are patient can buy a cell-phone in a price up to 50% lower than the phone's original launching price, I bet I'm not telling you anything new...
[Nokia Lumia 900] cubanaso:
Actually most high-end phones hold resell value very well. I sold my used titan for $350, a used focus after 6 months $400, and a used HD7 for $300. The lumia after two months? You can snag one on eBay for about $200. Yeah all phones depreciate in value. It just so happens that with their announcement about only getting 7.8 made it quicker. I've had 5 window phones and I love the platform but Microsoft sucks when it comes to marketing and revealing products. Why do you think apple announces their new phones only a few weeks before they sell them? Because they don't want their older models to take a huge hit on sales. Oh well, early adopters always get screwed.

It is funny that anyone who mentioned demand and value would drop after the WP8 announcement were called babies and ridiculed. Many talked about how it didnt matter to the masses and how they would sell the device for a decent price when WP8 came out. Maybe its just a coincidence the demand dropped? Lol
[Nokia Lumia 900] efektos:
That's ridiculous - of course the Lumia 900's value would drop after the WP8 announcement (it didn't drop THAT much, though - from 700$ for an unlocked device on eBay it dropped to 550$), as the Galaxy S2 price dropped when the S3 was announced...

Point is that they won't start giving those Lumia 900s for free - their price dropped, thats for sure - but they won't become obsolete.
[Nokia Lumia 900] jimski:
Well Nokia/AT&T paid me $1 for my L900 ($99 - $100 = $1-) so I have no complaints. When I get itch for a new WP8 next Spring I will apply the $199 I should have paid for this phone, another $199 for the phone, plus another $100 for my backup Surround, w/accessories when I sell it (just got over $100 for my Tilt2). $500 should get me a nice phone. And another upgrade in Jan 2014.

[Nokia Lumia 900] kalex:
happens all the time. look at iphones they also lost value not as bad as nokia but from what I've seen now 4s going rate is around $350-400 for 16gb model. Unlocked ones go for more. Happens all the time. Also one thing I noticed from iphones is that its better to keep the phone a bit longer and let the dust settle down when new phone comes out. Usually first week upgraders are lucky to snag new iphone and keep driving prices of previous version down in order to dump them fast. After a while it actually levels off and with release of unlock and jailbreak value goes up a bit.

Once ATT releases unlock codes for lumia 900s they will go up a price a bit as that opens up a different market. But overall all phones drop in price as time passes. early adapters move on to the next phones etc.

Guys just today I come to know a new phone i.e. "samsung galaxy chat" which is a very low specs ICS powered android smartphone.

http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-Galaxy-Chat_id7240

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_chat_b5330-4866.php

Samsung refused to give us ICS update because they think that our phone have low specs to handle ICS. But if samsung galaxy chat phone handle can have ICS then as compared to that phone our phone has superb high specs then why our phone cant handle ICS...???

Also we all know about 18 month google policy. It state that after release of phone till 18 months the company should provide latest android updates to all phone. Now a days sony is doing a great work by providing ICS to nearly all phone. Then why not samsung??? Really samsung is cheating with us by giving fake reasons.

Cant we have legal right to get ICS update by samsung??? Can we make a complaint in consumer.forum against samsung???
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] pratik_s:
i think samsung has not provided ics to many of its smartphones like galaxy i9000,i9003,i9001 so if we all get united(i.e the users of i9000,i9003,i9001) we could have more power and actually get more chances to get to our goal.and the reason they have specified for not giving ics to these smartphones is that they cannot port the touchwiz version of ics.i think it is bussiness policy from samsung bcoz if they update our smartphones to ics then there will be very minor diff between the new smartphones and most users will not buy it and there will be a decrease in their sale.therfore they r not providing ics.
