How do you accidentally flash a ROM?

The only backups I'm aware of that can be made without a custom recovery are partition images using dd which I had done before my flashing adventures, but you can't cat the dd images back in unless you find a ROM that has EXACTLY the same NAND partition sizes. Out of about a dozen different ROMs I had tried, none had the same partition sizes or even the same number of partitions. I did find one ROM that had the same size system partition, but even that couldn't be cat'd back in for some reason. My guess is because booting from NAND probably locks some files in the system partition so you need to devise a way to boot Linux from sdcard.

Case for Mach Speed 9.7 Tablet

I successfully rooted my Mach Speed 9.7 Tablet and I am able to download apps from google play thanks to this great Thread! Now I am in need of a case for the tablet. ManImCool mentioned he purchased one, but I could not find a follow up on if he recommends the case. Does anyone have more recommendations on cases?

Also, on a side note... I downloaded the Zillow app but it always needs to force close when I try it. Does anyone else have this problem or know why this might occur?

2nd tablet root help

Well WaltA,

Had time to root 2nd trio only to have google play installed but it won't let it install some of the app's ie:instagram. States "this version not compatible with this device". Any ideas why the 1st tablet has no concern while the 2nd tablet say "not compatible"?

Says"Your device not compatible with this version". Any idea why?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] WaltA:
I don't use Instagram (nor Facebook, Twitter, etc). So, I have no personal experience to share with it.

I just checked on Google Play, and for Instragram, I get "This app is compatible with your Trio Stealth Pro.". It shows that its a new version of Instagram, as of 1/11/2013 (don't know when you tried).

Just a guess, but does your 2nd tablet have all the same apps installed as the 1st? There could be a dependency.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] 808gmac:
Yup,used same files from 1st install, could something in tablet cause it to have issues? Is there a way to install app from 1st tablet to 2nd? To try and narrow down weather it's the tablet or app. Noticed "about tablet" info not identical.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] WaltA:
What's different?

There could always be a newer hardware version. :eek:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shane39:
Just bought this....

I just bought the MS Trio Stealth PRO 9.7". I had Root Checker PRO on an SDCard and I installed it. It said that the Tablet was already rooted. It is brand new in the box. Just to be certain, I did a factory reset. I reinstalled Root Checker PRO and sure enough it says "Congratulations You have root access!" SuperUser isn't installed. But, mine came pre-rooted I guess?

Remount failed

Hello,

I just bought the Trio for my sister, and i am trying to get Google Play on to the device.

I have been following the instructions on

theunlockr.com/2013/01/22/how-to-get-google-play-on-the-trio-stealth-pro-9-7/

I have rooted the device, it was pretty easy, once i got the drivers. Then i installed ADB like it said to and when i type ADB devices I do get the serial number of my device.

So I am at the last step, i got the phonesky.apk in the folder and i am ready to go.

So i open the command window and type adb remount

and i get

* daemon not running, starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

remount failed: Operation not permitted.

How can i get passed this, cant find anything useful on the internet on how to make it work so I wanted to ask you guys

Thanks for the help
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] WaltA:
Could be it wasn't really new, but the previous purchaser rooted it, and then returned it.

Could be that Trio bought a newer batch of tablets off of Allwinner. I am sure that Allwinner's tablet designs are constantly changing.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shane39:
Well, as it turns out. It was defective, it had corrupt firmware. I returned it and got another one. This one says the same thing. Root Checker PRO Results: Congratulations! You have root access! No SuperUSER. But BusyBox V1.18.3 is installed correctly! Near as I can tell both were made in December.

Does anybody know if this tablet is single or dual core processor? The box says multi core but I have seen a few people in this thread mention single core.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GnatGoSplat:
Single core, Allwinner A10.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] WaltA:
I think the "other" core, is the graphics processor.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ontheway:
I found this tablet at Kmart for $139.99, I was hoping this was an actual dual core processor. Looks like I will be taking it back and buying a different tablet that has dual core.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ontheway:
Before I decide to return it I want to see if netflix will work. I followed the instructions in the first post, I have the app superuser in the app drawer but no play or store icon. Does anybody know how to get google play?

EDIT: It has also has a red box around the screen when opening the app drawer the first time then it goes away, it also shows the red when I power down the device?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GnatGoSplat:
Can't say I've ever seen a red box. It could be a problem with the video hardware.

For $139.99, I think you'll be much happier if you just return it and pick up a second-hand HP TouchPad. It's a night and day difference how much better the TP's screen and performance are (when running CM10).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] WaltA:
You need to follow the instructions in the 8th post too, to add the App Store.

dump of Trio 9.7c

I believe that I've made a dump of my Trio 9.7c tablets firmware. I downloaded, google sdk and opened the command line, issued the adb shell command, it connected with my tablet with a "root@android:" prompt. I downloaded something called "dump" but it didn't work. So, I viewed the dump.bat file. I issued each command into the shell window, dumped and copied 4 files to my computer. Boot.img, bootloader.img, recovery.img, system.tgr. Could this be the firmware for this device that everyone is looking for? If so, where can I put it or what can I do to create a custom ROM? Like root, with google play or possibly update it to Jelly Bean? I've seen you guys do some amazing things with these things. :good:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GnatGoSplat:
A dump can be made using dd as well, but unfortunately, nothing can be done with a dump until either a 3rd party recovery is installed or the dump is packaged in a format that LiveSuite can flash.

When I don't sign in, I did as you said and found the "Trio-Stealth-Pro" forum between Onda - A10 CPU and Ployer MOMO - A10 CPU.

BUT, if I sign in (different tab) and click on the same links, it doesn't find it.

If I'm logged in, it won't find the forum.

If I'm not logged in, it will let me access the forum. But, NOT the ROM development or Firmware releases sections.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] smithmal:
Hmmm....

That is extremely odd. If I "sign out" of Slatedroid and then click on the link I get the same error. Within that error screen I have the option of signing in. When I do, it automatically takes me to whatever link I was trying to originally access within Slatedroids.

Since this seems to be an issue, below is the information linked in the Stealth thread on Slatedroid:

Great news. A Slatedroid member (thanks Dvalin21) has obtained the firmware for the Trio 4.3, 7B and 9.7. The links for each firmware are below:

Thanks! Unfortunately, that trick doesn't work for me. But I was able to download the firmware.

Do you happen to know if this is the same firmware, or newer firmware than what ships with the device?

My Trio 9.7 is currently bricked (it bricked itself actually... sits at the android logo forever when turning on). But, it seems to charge, and I do have a fully rooted recovery environment with root adb access... I am just missing the ability to flash zips from the recovery GUI as I haven't replaced the stock recovery yet, just modded the recovery image and added utilities. Luckily I hacked that together a couple weeks before this happened. Hopefully I'll be able to recover using that.

Anyone know the button combinations for the various modes on this device? Recovery, Master Reset, etc?

But i have a problem, i put slimbean onto root of my mobile then went into the screen where you can do factory data wipe and stuff like that but i only have the options you get before rooting my phone, i have superuser installed but i think i may be missing something else on my mobile to get the rom installed or am i just stupid....

Any help would be greatly appreciated, i also have usb debugging ticked if that helps

thanks peeps :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
which root method did you use. Auto CF root doesn't provide CWM any more. You might have to flash a custom recovery through odin. Stock recovery doesn't allow custom rom installation. You don't need debugging any more on TB either. You can uncheck it somewhere on TB settings so it doesn't keep asking you for one.

you can either decompile and edit your framework.res, recompile and overwrite or you can obtain a hacked framework.res for your rom version or you can install a custom rom as I am fairly certain all of the latest custom roms have the framework.res hack by default.
