What you mentioned here is one of the two methods, the other one, which is working for me, is to press and hold the reset button and power on the device while livsuit is ready to detect it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Staten:
Ooooo i didn't try that ! I'll edit post and let you know.

Edit: No good... Dam this tablet !
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Goes1967:
Are you sure you have livsuit running, an image is loaded and USB connected while trying?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] darrylh82:
Hey my issue with livesuite not recognizing it was I was using the wrong rom. I used a rom I found for an a13 and it recognized it right away after pressing the power a few times. None of the ly-f1 roms would work. I am stuck in the same boat as the other guys where my capacitive buttons or autorotate don't work but programs will rotate the screen if they need. So try that. I bet that is your issue.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JG:
I nevermind See post 237
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] darrylh82:
It's because of what just said we have an a13 processor in our stealth trios. Get a rom for an a13 and I bet livesuite will recognize it. Try it out.

Edit See post 237 for image i found that will work with this device!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] darrylh82:
Yea I don't know if I can post links yet but I do have a rom that will get it workable. As I said before the capacitive buttons on the face don't work and also the auto-rotate only works if an app needs it to. So I to am on the hunt for a better rom but at least its usable. I managed to install cm9 once but the touch screen was unresponsive so I thought it was because of the wrong compatibility file so I flashed a new one and bricked it. I am now on the hunt for a custom rom that will get it back fully functional and improve on the spotty at best wifi reception. I'm pretty new to this so if you let me know how to get you the rom I will be more than happy to do it for you.

okay i found a working firmware image that will work with livesuit it is here in live suit follow instructions and flash this image http://dorkfiles.com/momo-9-iii-a13-android-rom-december-2012/ everything works except for the 3 buttons on the face everything else seems to work search livesuite 1.09 if you dont have it.or maybe you can find it in the threads here this works on stealth pro trio 7 inch this is not mine so I am not responsible for anything that happens to your devices check it out ,I am not saying anything will happen ,but dont want to be blamed if you screw up!!! this is an image file for A13 which I found is the only kind working with this device the dpi is a little small but you might be able to find an app to tweak it if it is a bother ,wifi works,touchscreen works ,netflix works etc.. again this is installed using livesuite ...enjoy --I hope this saves you from a paperweight like it saved me!!

if link dosnt work anymore try thisit is link to developer and also has screenies with instructions!! http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...eneric-7-a13-android-4-0-4-hyper-edition.html

Thank you for the help but this does not work for me, I tried this IMG and trying all the key combos to get into the menu at start up but nothing still works.. I made a youtube video showing the tablet. http://youtu.be/y6ke2s9vqIo Can anyone else give this tablet a shot if they have it...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JG:
I ve seen the video .I am not sure what to think other than install live suite click on livesuit .exe say no to first screen select image then go to tablet press volume up which is pressing towards the power button and plug in usb to computer and while pressing volume up press power and hold it so holding volume up and power button plug in the usb to tablet imediately and keep holding buttons until you see a box pop up on the screen of pc..

I know the description might be confusing becasue I am typing while doing other things at the moment so hopefully this will make sense to you and if it doesnt work i am at a losssorry

Got 2 of these trio stealth pro 7. One for my daughter and one for the Wife. I'm mostly impressed. Got them at Fry's for $79.99USD each.

I may be exchanging them: They do NOT have the HDMI mini port as advertised. In looking at every website including the Triomp3 website, and the manual itself: it shows a HDMI mini port. Also, a small area around the front facing camera seems to be coming apart. (Kind of like bubbles under the screen under the camera.) This is on both units.

I am disappointed on the lack of customizations. i.e. Google Playstore and other trials and tribulations installing a custom ROM.

The appeal of Android is that it is open source. I don't know why it is so difficult? For me it is much easier to jailbreak an Iphone then to root Android. It is even easier to add a custom ROM to a Blackberry. I really like Android from a user experience; but the Open-source dealio is hype! I remember when Android first came out; they pitched it as easy upgradability to new versions. It's NOT the case! I'm sorry; Open-source is not supposed to be this hard!

I appreciate everyone's efforts and I'm trying from my end. I'm having the same results as everyone here. I'll keep trying to plug away, and will report any progress (and try not to rant!)

My daughter's is OEM with busybox 8.9.7 and superuser 3.1.3.

I installed "Adaway" and that has helped performance. Netflix runs flawlessly.

"Getjar" does not work for me.

This is the first time I've used the Amazon app store. I'm not impressed with the Amazon App. store. It is much inferior to the Google Play Store.

Someone's suggestion about bombarding with phone calls and emails to get drivers, codes and a way to get the Google play store or a working Gapps. Seems like a good idea. (I'll do my part with an email and a phone call tomorrow.)

Anyone tried a different launcher?

Missing Wifi

I had 2 Trio Stealth Pro (Trio7c) and it turns out they are the A13 models. I made the dumb mistake of flashing one without backing up the rom (thinking I could just backup the other). As it turns out, the one I flashed has a different WiFi card. Is it possible to configure it to use the other driver???

The flashed (unworking) one has an 8188eu WiFi card

The working one uses 8192cu WiFi.

Is it possible to configure the other one in adb to use 8188 instead of 8192???

P.S. I see 8188eu files in my /system/lib folder.

EDIT:

I was able to get wifi working just by inserting the kernel module:

insmod /vendor/modules/8188eu.ko
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Staten:
just ordered another one, also just bought the Samsung galaxy tablet 2 7.0. It's rooted and custom ROM ! love it. As for the Trio.. Very disappointed lol

SOLUTION FOR YOUR MACHSPEED TRIO 7INCH READ

I know what a piece O`sh@t,I had it for 10 minutes before I decided it needed Google Play so i imediately tried the procedure in the OP and BOOM semi -bricked and nothing worked until I tried an A13 image ,the OP states in it A10 which is understndable because that is what it says in the specs,but as soon as I installed the ROM and the compatibility file it crashed on me which sucked because it was a present for my kids and I had to put it under the tree not working,but After finding a bunch of images I narowed it down to 2 images for this device which work the best which is the F1 (A13) 4.0.4 firmware update to 20121129.1.1.1 at link http://www.lyxfsz.com/cn/downs_view.htm?id=63 which doesn't have the orientation correct (inverted-upside down ) but everything else works and last but least my final choice which everything works but not the greatest battery life which is called mom09 hyper edition Image file named - TRAGiC-A13-DEC2012-404-ICS.img which can be founde here with instructions at this link http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...eneric-7-a13-android-4-0-4-hyper-edition.html PLEASE NOTE that these come pre-installed with Google -play and I would recommend installing SuperSu,Root Browser Lite,SetCPU set minimum above 700 and leave maximum alone it appears that this CPU is already maxed out at its current maximum setting because it wont behave with any higher setting I have found out also use adaway to minimize the ads and maybe try battery calibrator app and memory booster. as I stated this one works the best however WiFi signal is a bit weak at times the fixed buttons on face don't work but are not needed and orientation works fine in all apps including Netflix as well..you will need Live-suite to flash this image and follow instructions from the link above if you don't know where to get live-suite I suggest Google it or check in this thread if the link from a previous post still works ..I would post Live Suite but I am not sure if it is considered WAREZ or not..I know I posted similar post with some of this info but this has more of final info ..Anyways I hope this helps Someone ,I know finding and researching is frustrating and if you don't know what you are looking for exactly you will never find what you need so Again I am posting this in an effort to help the community with a solution to get there MachSpeed Trio 7 back to a working state with Google-play etc..

EDIT LINK TO LIVE SUITE 1.09 HERE http://www.4shared.com/zip/u8bgCi3y/LiveSuitPack_v109.html

I would like to thank the original Devs and Contributors to these links I provided I am not sure who to thank ,but please know I apreciate your hard work and efforts..

Confirmed success on Trio + Tips

I have recently installed successfully the ROM mentioned in post #237 (Ployer/MOMO A13) on my Trio Stealth Pro 7c (A13). I can confirm that it boots fine and WiFi works on it.

Here are a few tips for the process:

1. The ROM download page requires a password, the page indicates that "The password is updated". You need to read that sentence literally: type the word "updated" into the password box...

2. The UI upon boot is in Chinese. to switch to English: launch the settings app, select the item with the icon that looks like an "A" (languages), then select the first item on the top. The next screen will be the list of languages (in English). select the desired language.

3. The keylayout files provided in this ROM map the volume-up and volume down buttons incorrectly. (volume up triggers volume down, volume down triggers "menu". To correct this follow CAREFULLY the following procedure:

- Download a file explorer app that can work in root mode (I use es file explorer, then turn on the root options in the settings menu)

- navigate to the following folder: /system/usr/keylayout

- find the file sun4i-keyboard.kl and edit it as TEXT

- find the line "key 139 MENU", replace it with "key 139 VOLUME_DOWN" (AFAIK this file is case sensitive!)

- find the line "key 114 VOLUME_DOWN" replace it with "key 114 VOLUME_UP" (AFAIK this file is case sensitive!)

- save the file

- reboot

A few additional notes:

- The 3 buttons on the front don't work. I didn't find them very useful anyway

- The camera works

- Google play works

- Video playback seems improved (I use dice player)

- accelerometer doesn't seem to be working, screen does not auto rotate (probably a driver missing, will try to find a solution next)

G-Play without installing new ROM

I followed these procedures and I was able to get google play installed without any problem. You might have to shop around for the most current version of google play, but it worked fine.

www . androidauthority . com/kindle-fire-hd-7-inch-install-google-play-store-123353/

Make sure you follow the part about copying the file to the /system/app/ and chaning the permission. I tried installing it from the download folder and it complained when you started google play and it crashed on open. Following these directions solved that.

I have not installed the ROM on my units. These were virgin units.

This seems to be a safer alternative.

Softkeys are a go!

Thank you so much man! I pulled ft5x_ts.kl and ft5x_ts.ko from the system folder of my stock image (which is all I've been working with trying to find a decent working kernel to match it to) and placed them in /system/usr/keylayout/ and /system/vendor/modules/ respectively. Side 3 buttons work now :) Working on getting sensors for rotation. After that I think we'll have a suitable working rom for this tablet. In your face Mach Speed. :good:

Diving into this one

Hey so going to be following the instructions posted above by Staten and otxa Tom. Afternoon at the office sorry i could do it for you guys sooner left the device at the office. Will be working on the buttons and following everything nice and proper will work with so friends see if maybe theres some Under volting that can be done to help with that battery issue also as far a finding a better kernel thats compatible a nicer governer and scheduler would really help this thing along as far as improving the Wifi quality i'm willing to help out with whom ever i can to work on that issue as alot of ppl were complaining it didnt work on some ROMs but does with this but of course it's gimpy. Thanks again to all you guys out there making this little 60$ Device more than just a portable inch moniter hahaha.....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Merknsissys:
So i did all of the following instruction and have the ROM up and running now for about a day the volume fix above worked fine as far a the Original image files to fix the 3 buttons does not work...If you follow those instructions it results in pressing the menu button and then the home button will force open your search and start pressing 3 on your keyboard.. any luck with this and any chance well see a AUTO-rotate feature that works anytime soon?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shizzel1211:
I jumped in to root on this as well. I didn't save a backup image. I flashed the reactor rom. My display is so bright it seems that the icons are burning into the lcd display. I can boot into recovery and when I do the display is fine. Other problem is the volume buttons do not work so I can't select anything from recovery. The tablet only lets me reboot as the power button is the only button functioning. I wrote a firmware image that I found of the net and this doesn't help either. Livesuite only recognizes the tablet some of the time. Any ideas? Thanks

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kevmodee:
Do you have the 8188eu.ko?

I have been stuck on the GB 234 with working wifi as my only option. All ICS's I have tried will not start the wifi and i think it is the 8192 vs 8188 issue.

If I had the 8188eu.ko that you used insmod on in your edit is that something that can be done on the tablet or are you using software on a PC to do that?

Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Meteshjj:
So, I'm fairly new to the modding and hacking of tablets, especially when there's no recovery to speak of by default. That being said, I have read the entire 27 pages up to this point, and I'm still stuck.

I bought a Trio Stealth Pro on Black Friday. My brother opened it on Christmas and immediately requested I start monkeying around with the firmware. After crapping my pants when I thought I bricked it, I discovered that his version was the MOMO9 (A13, distinguished by the lack of HDMI) clone, as opposed to the LY-F1 (A10, with the HDMI) clone. This was irritating, to say the least. So, I found TRAGiC's ROM and flashed it with Livesuit. Now it works again, but with all of the problems listed by people so far, namely the hard buttons being in disarray and the screen buttons not working. Those don't bother me. What does bother me is the lack of a fully English firmware. Even after changing the native languages all to English, some parts are still in Chinese. Does anyone know how to fix that? Did I miss a setting somewhere?

My idea was to buy another one, backup the original firmware in its entirety, and work on it fresh. This did not go so well. I bought a second one off of Amazon only to discover that it was the LY-F1 clone. This gave me mixed emotions. Still, I figured I might as well see what I can do with this one. Of course, the first thing I did (after a NANDroid backup) was find a Jellybean ROM for it. Right now, it has the official LY-F1 4.1.1 ROM, rooted, and it works great... Except the WiFi. This tablet would be amazing for what I plan to use it for, if it only had WiFi. The Reactor, Seby, and several other ROMs I tried didn't have WiFi, either. I assume it's because of the same problem everyone else is having. My question with this one is this: Is there any way to transfer the "drivers" (I don't know the term for Android) from my original system to a flashable ROM of ICS somewhere? I don't have a lot of experience with Android or Linux kernels, so I don't know how the linking and whatnot works.

Any help or suggestions you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated, and anything that I can do to help (uploading files, running diagnostics, etc.), just let me know. Even if I have to compile a new OS, I don't mind. Thanks again for all of the help you guys have given me so far.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shizzel1211:
K-Jack, I didn't back it up. went ahead and installed the reactor rom. So far I've had zero luck with livesuite and a13 roms. I'm completely stuck. Update, just found an a10 firmware that would write, Display is still burning. It's so bright that you cant read gmail.Also volume buttons are non functional. I mean the physical button on the side of the case.I'm downloading the latest a10 firmaware to see what that does for me.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JG:
It appears that this tablet was released with some haviving allwinner10 and some with allwinner13 .so the only thing I can say is try both and see which image you are able to flash a13 or a10
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shizzel1211:
K-Jacks, It's an a10. I started a thread to see if i could get people to share their factory image but no luck so far. I'm trying to get in touch with Trio to send it in for service but no luck. Thanks for all your help, i appreciate it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JG:
No problem....I appreciate the thanks. Just pressing the thanks button is thanks

enough. Good luck.let me know how it goes.. I just wish i made a dump or a backup of firmware before I started modding mine because now my whole touch screen is completely mirrored and inverted and it stays that way with any firmware I try....Not sure what happened.corrupted somehow I guess.
