crystal root doesn't work for anything...

Now I'm not knocking the validity of crystal root, i've just never gotten it to work. And to top it off never thought i'd have to acctually post in a forum...period. However, I too needed a zeki tablet rooted, as well as another obscure Chinese tablet i got from best buy. neither tablet worked with crystal root, nor the numerous others i'v gotten from around the web. The only thing i've personally gotten to work is a combination of libusb made divers and kingo root.

For anybody who doesn't know what these are libusb for windows is available on sourceforge, and kingo root from somewhere that i cant quite recall, google is really helpful. Just run libusb, select your tablet while its in debugging mode, and the program will work it's magic for the most part. I did manage to find one 4.3 inch tablet that had a 600 mhz a8 that didn't work with this method, but then agian i only paid like $30 so i didn't find it a problem, plays retro games really nice as it has a capacitive lcd with 16m colors, slow as dirt for anything else, so unless you need it for something like that, then libusb should be able to make drivers from almost nothing on your end.

Then just run kingo root, if the drivers are all fine and well, kingo root will ask you to verify the debugging permissions on the device, and afterwards will proceed to root it as normal.

Like i said, I've never gotten crystal root to verify the zip package, while kingo root has failed only once simply because the device in question had such obscure hardware. But because kingo root is closed source and classified as a linux based Trojan, it will almost always be flagged by an antivirus, so use it or don't.

If nothing else the zeki brand of tablets make better warming coasters for coffee or tea than anything else, so if you still cant root it then the 7" tablets like my TBDG734B are better used as a pocket hand warmer or thermos insulator than a computer device.

Edit:

forgot to apologize up front for the bump, but kingo root and others verify crystal root works means this thread probably needs to be closed. Thanks for the service provided on these forums. :)

1-2-2019 update. This tablet is a POS, but my mother in law was gifted it and from its 1st boot up has been stuck in Android loop boot screen. I've tried Crystal and motochopper from the SD root and they both say Installation Aborted. This post will most likely be read in 2020 when someone finds my tablet on sale at Walmart for $20, but incase someone has a working file please reply. Thanks and happy new year

Cant it be flashed using TWRP recovery?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] somerandomname1:
I flashed it with TWRP. Everything seemed ok. ROM seems pretty nice. Went back to CM though, didn't feel like setting everything up again lol.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] rudyo78427:
I flashed the ROM earlier with twrp. Flashed fine. The ROM seemed pretty smooth and stable, but did notice a few things. The camera feature for HDR wasn't stable. When active, the camera would seem to take 3 pics before finally saving the photo, which then came out blurry. Also the video camera feature had trouble focusing. Though once I rebooted and let the phone settle, the video seemed better, but the camera still had some issues. Also, I noticed my 4g signal was really low and would often switch to 3g. When I had wifi on, the signal was weak too. But overall a pretty good looking ROM. I went back to ViperLTE cause I wanted my 4g signal strenght back as well as a stronger wifi. Wonder if a firmware/radio firmware flash would do some good? I know there is not one out, but just a curious thought. :good:
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] TheGOAT232412:
I flashed the ROM yesterday and it runs great! Only real issues I was seeing were GPS not locking in Weebo and it would crash if I tried to have it search. Gonna give it another run once I get out of class and work for the day. Great work by the way, really appreciate the new ROM

Hey guys, I really enjoy using your avatar rom but since version 2.10b it hasn't been stable enough for me to use as a daily driver. I was wondering if you guys have any plans on basing it off the newer cm10.2? Some of the latest nightlies are pretty stable (for those who don't experience the screen flickering problem). I'm thankful that you've ported avatar to our device and I'm not asking for etas or anything, just wondering.

Find out about which apps can run in ART (Android Run Time), the easy way

A quick little post for something we have been working on lately.

Quite a few of you people would have heard about Android Kitkat and the bag of goodies that it brings along with it. One of those important changes though, is very much under the hood. It is called ART or Android Runtime. So what is it, and why is it important to us?

As described by Google, ART is a new Android runtime being introduced experimentally in the 4.4 release. This is a preview of work in progress in KitKat that can be turned on in Settings > developer options. Before this, all these days, every Android application used to run in its own process, with its own instance of the Dalvik virtual machine. Dalvik has been written so that a device can run multiple VMs efficiently. The Dalvik VM executed files in the Dalvik Executable (.dex) format which is optimized for minimal memory footprint. Now, with Android 4.4, Google has revealed that the Dalvik replacement, called Android Runtime (ART), should improve the performance of Android apps by a huge margin. The early version of ART in Android 4.4 already has been reported to have sped up apps by around 100%, though it is too early to know the whole truth. It might as well be a placebo till then.

ART straddles an interesting mid-ground between compiled and interpreted code, called ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation. Currently with Android apps, they are interpreted at runtime every time you open them up. This is slow. (iOS apps, by comparison, are compiled in native code, which is much faster.) With ART enabled, each Android app is compiled to native code when you install it. Then, when it’s time to run the app, it performs with all the speed and responsiveness of a native app.

Now, a lot of developers as well as enthusiasts will be really interested in this thing. It allows Android developers to continue writing the exact same code, and having their apps work across a wide range of hardware specs and form factors — but now their apps will now run significantly faster, feel more responsive, and your device’s battery life should improve.

And this is where our new website, www.androidruntime.com comes in. Right now, in these initial stages, people are still confused as to which apps can run in ART and which cannot. Our website solves this tiny issue by letting you search for any app, and see if ART supports it or not. Missing an app but you know the answer to the question? You can even contribute and add to the supported app list. We will do a quick verification and update the search results.

Now the website is still in its infancy, but we are sure that a lot of people might be interested in it. So spread the word and do what you guys really do best.

Oh, and have a great weekend!

Cartoon world theme release

Added Cartoon world theme in our collection. Check below screenshots. The same is available in our theme chooser(Avatar Themes -> Avatar Themes-> Cartoonish).
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] bippi79:
Explanations and facts. Our status as of now.

Lately there has been a lot of confusion as to our approach to AvatarROM and the support scenario for all the various devices. We have had a lot of negative, and must I say, important feedback, and we have also seen a slight wane in our download numbers.

First off the bat, let us lay it out there in front of you that AvatarROM is still up and running and very much alive. There have been a few problems lately, but more about that later. We would like to ensure to our users that our development pattern is still chugging like a well oiled machinery and soon things will be right back on track.

We received a lot of flak for the last 4.3 build that we came out with, which actually had a major flaw in the lockscreen, putting devices into continuous bootloops. Our immediate solution was to advice users not to upgrade at all, and to those who had, to downgrade to the previous build. Although we ended up promising users that we will soon release a new build, unfortunately it never ended up happening. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have not been able to push out a new build to our users, nor have we released any update for all those devices still on 4.2.2. The good news though, is that we will soon have a new build up and running. We are working on it and it should see the light of day soon.

The second problem, and in a way, a more grievous one was that a lot of older builds and in some cases, all the builds for specific device models got erased from our servers, as a result of which new users were never able to download our ROM. This lead to a lot of confusion, and in some cases, agitation that we might be wrapping up, which as we cleared up, is not the problem. We were trying to tweak the back- end servers and in the process, lost a lot of those older images. By the time we could salvage them, it was too late. Currently we are in the process of tweaking the servers (really carefully) and make sure that most of those missing builds are available.

So yes, in a nutshell, we really dropped the ball this time. We will like to thank all our users who stood valiantly alongside us, even though aware of the issues. We are looking into solving all these problems and should be able to alleviate them altogether in the coming days. So please be patient, just for a few more days.

Thanks

Just installed this ROm on my new phone and I really like it. Very smooth and stable. I do have two questions though:

1.) Can you use CM10 themes and/or Avatar themes or just Avatar themes?

2.) When I connect the phone to my PC, I do not get access to my external sd card, only the built in sd card. How do you enable access to the external sd card so I can copy things to it from my PC?

Thanks for any info.....
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] TheGOAT232412:
1.) Not 100% sure on this question here.

2.) Go to settings > storage > menu button (USB computer connection).

Which build are you running, the most recent 10/29?

Sent from the 36 chambers
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] flyinjoe13:
I'm running the Stable 3.0 version. I'll check the storage setting as you suggested. Thanks for the info.

EDIT: Your suggestion worked. Thanks again. I do have another question though concerning the camera. When I try to take pictures in a darker setting, the camera flash is too strong and the pictures come out all white like the flash is too strong. I have this same problem using the base CM10.1 ROM as well. The only ROM i've found that doesn't do this is the Tachyon ROM, but it has other problems that make it unusable (i.e., can't delete lockscreen shortcuts). Is this a common problem with the CM10.1 camera? Would a camera app from the market work better?

Thanks....

From what I can tell the camera is not functioning due to internal issues and is not app related. I too would like a fix if known.... It sucks having a camera that doesnt focus when trying to scan documents.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Pete02:
I believe the 5.0.2 version is kit kat. I don't think you can install it over a 4.2.2 rom. To go from jelly bean to kit kat you would need a clean install if I'm not mistaken.
