@ijohnny could you share with us the steps you did to flash it? Does everything work? On Cube tablets there's an issue in restoring boot and kernel, is it the case here too?

Thanks in advance
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iJohnny:
I don't know if these issues are present here because I did not test it that much. I just flashed it to see if it can be done, but I plan to compile it for 5097cpro and then test to see how everything works.

I used wendal's tool to unpack update.img and then replace recovery.img in temp directory.

Then used the same tool to package it again to new update.img

Flashed it with tool from 1.06 that you can download from Prestigio website.

Tool that I used to unpack update.img

Rename 1.08 update to wendal.img and place it to the same directory as the tool you download, thn run: runme.bat and unpack it by choosing option (number) and pressing enter.

When you unpack it you will get:

boot.img

misc.img

recovery.img

system.img

in Temp directory of the tool that you are using to unpack update.img

Delete recovery.img and replace with recovery that you downloaded few posts back.

Name must be the same as the file you deleted.

Now run: runme.bat again and pack it. You get file called: wendal_new.img

This is the file that you flash to your tablet using the tool from 1.06 update that you download from prestigio.com

If this is hard I can upload it to dropbox.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uros0104:
I thought about doing that earlier, but gave up because they are not the same size (the recovery.img you get with wendal tool is about 10MB and to my knowledge contains the kernel also, while the one you posted is 1.5MB). I'm thinking of flashing it with RKTool (the one that allows separate partition flashing), but TBH I'm afraid of bricking my tablet. If you could compile it from source could you share it with us? I had problems with setting up a build environment, so I couldn't do it. And, would you mind doing a bit of testing with the one you flashed? Also, if you're interested, I can try my luck with ubuntu once again, and if I can manage to get everything working, maybe we can work together to port CWM to our device?

Cheers mate
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iJohnny:
And I was thinking that kernel was in boot.img while recovery.img is a separate img.

I am not an expert so maybe someone knows this.

As far as I know only way to brick this tablet is by flashing bad bootloader on it.

If you flash something and it does not work you can always use RKTool and flash update.img that is working for you.

ATM I am using Ubuntu 12.04 and there seams to be a problem with compiling on it, and I would need to install lower version of Ubuntu.

Maybe I will install Ubuntu for building on my portable hdd.

Now I am just having fun and making a ROM that fits my needs, ;) and CWM testing will come after that. I have also found another version of CWM that I will test.

It anyone working on CM for this tablet? I've tried to compile generic version and add to 1.0.6 rom but it didn't boot (I know it was kinda naive). But now I'm lost and I can't find any CM porting guide and at this point the device doesn't response to adb so I have no idea how to get logs to figure out what's wrong.

Jellybean: http://www.sendspace.com/file/1ht5f4

It's image made from files in RK2918 Tab Odys-Loox rocks with Jelly Bean ! thread with replaced bootanimation, bash and google now added.

The ugly bootanimations are fully removed, CWM is used as recovery (you can boot into it by holding UP+DOWN volume and press power). Contains busybox, 1.06GB for apps and it's of course rooted.

Kernel in this rom has bug (I'm waiting for recompiled fixed version). The battery status is not updating, it stucks on boot. So If you want to know your battery level, you need to reboot.

You should

backup your data

and flash it with RK29xxImageTools, which would probably mess up your userdata (internal sd) partition, which is not formated because of new recovery. So if you boot up without internal sd open terminal as root and type in: mkdosfs /dev/block/mtdblock9 and reboot
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwonko:
Hi. @Ficik Did you try some apps to monitor the batery status? Is everything other working on this rom?

Also have a question for all. In our Prestigio 5097C Pro there is a Rockchip RK2918 procesor and Vivante GC800 GPU. Many games on this GPU desnt work. Today I find some info about "Chainfire 3D" program. Is anybody trying to use it?

I would like to try this app but the root is needed. I've get my Prestigio few days ago from service so I'm a little confused about changing software...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ficik:
Everything else works and I will try to build fixed kernel. I didnt try any monitoring apps but since the bug is in kernel, i dont think they will work

---------- Post added at 09:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 PM ----------

Dont install chainfire, it doesnt work out of box and you will not boot up. It needs some modifications in rom. Its next thing in my agenda :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwonko:
Ok. So I'm waiting. Maybe chainfire will help our tablets to be more compatible with some games, which are not designed to our GPU...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uros0104:
On russian 1.08 rom it worked nicely...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwonko:
You mean that games works pretty well or the chainfire 3D works and the games works better? I only thinking about compatibility. All the games which I've installed and the run they are playable.

Also have question about root. Like I said I've get my MP5097PRO from service few days ago. Root removes warranty. But if I change my soft and the tablet broke up, is there posibility to back to normal soft? Service can check what soft i have before?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ficik:
To warranty issue: My opinion about this is that if the devices brokes and you can flash it, you can always flash stock rom and you're safe. If it brokes in way you can't even flash it, noone in service will spend hours to get it (maybe) working and checking if you're running custom rom. They'll will just trash it and send you new device (devices is cheaper then necessary human-hours). But this is my opinion and I'm not responsible for you're possible warranty loss.

Ok, folks, I could really need some help right now...

Concerning USB connect under Windows, I thought maybe the anti-theft software on the tab was messing with the access permissions on the device, so I uninstalled it. Now my5097 does not boot anymore. It is stuck in the Prestigio boot screen.

What I CAN do is access the CWM, but there's no update.img on the internal SD card, it seems to be deleted by accident. What is more, I cannot access the external SD, I get the error "Failed to mount external_SD", so I cannot go back to a stock ROM.

I can only access CWM and delete / wipe the partitions, reboot etc, but the device is not recognized by the PC, neither the external SD nor the internal one. Mount USB storage does not work either, message is something about a missing lum file.

However, when stuck in the boot screen, Windows makes a sound "Recognized USB device" and when I disconnect it makes the "usb device disconnected" sound - every time. But no device is showing up. I tried to re-install Heimdall and the USB drivers, but the device does not connect. I am stuck. I cannot access Fastboot or the download mode, or I am doing something wrong...

Any chance to save my device? I would really appreciate any help. There's CWM and a USB connection to the PC somehow in the background, and that's it. Can you help me?

Cheers.
