[General Questions and Answers] Catwiesel:
Hello,

I do hope my questions fit in here.

I recently bought the LC-Power MIRA-1 10.1" tablet. In google play it is called "unknown M105F"

the tablet has a 1,2 GHz A10 - ARM Cortex A8 CPU and a Mali 400MP GPU

i do have some experience with backup/root/uc&oc and even custom mods with my motorola defy phone (currently running cm7.2 stable)

when "playing" around with my defy i found it was sold in big numbers and is very well supported not only here but in any number of other communities. however, since my new tablet is pretty new to the market and no brand tablet, finding information on it is near impossible.

i do hope this will change in the future, especially since I really feel that my tablet is well suited for a number of tasks and with the price tag of ~150 EUR might even have a chance of finding its way in the hands of many people

anyway, even if the tablet is fine as it is now, it could be better. i am talking about modifications and this is what this thread is about.

1) BACKUP

in case i screw up, I really would love to have the possibility of resetting everything(!) back to factory defaults.

with my defy it is as easy as downloading the official sfb and flashing it with rsd lite

this wont work here for obvious reasons

is there a possibility to download the firmware to the pc (from the tablet) and later restoring it? probably not

so the only way left is nandroid backup?

easier said than done with a new device and without root...

also, i would very much prefer to have a backup without root / be sure to be able to remove all modifications i made like installing clockwork mod and rooting...

2) ROOT

for various reasons I'd like to have root. according to my information, rooting 4.0.4 is dependant on the device.

considering i have an unknown device, short of trying every possibility, what else could i do/try?

3) UNDERCLOCK/OVERCLOCK

I would LOVE to try to UC and OC the tablet. I know this might fail miserabely, but I could try.

IF i had root and any idea on how to find (again, short of trying every possible app) a working app.

any ideas?

4) GENERAL CUSTOMISATION

i learned that a well made custommod (like 7.2 for my defy) can make a huge difference in customisation and performance.

I would be willing to try a stable custommod but for now, I dont think that is viable since they usually are device specific.

So all I can do is use another launcher and hope for the best. I really like the performance, functions and especial the ability to customize the AWD Launcher that came with the cm7.2 for my phone.

According to google play the awd launcher is not compatible with my device. i cant imagine why, but there it is.

now, is there a way to still try it?

and what launcher comes closest to the performance, feel and customizability of the awd launcher (i do NOT care about special visual effects on which most launchers seem to concentrate)?

5) SIMILAR DEVICES

the best way to approach all those questions might be to find a (very) similar tablet and try to extrapolate answers from there onto my device.

however, I have no clue on how to figure out what chipset my tablet uses and what other information might be needed to try it that way

---

thats it for now

any and all help will be appreciated!

thank you for reading this
