"HELP"

Guys, please help me with this!

I want to add 4.4 KitKat or L 5.0 theme on my Asus Memo Pad HD 7 and totally do not know how to do, I find a great 4.4 theme .apk at Google Play, but that tablet does not have function of "select theme".

Can someone explain me how to get that function, or if thre are any real 4.4 or Lollipop (custom OS to install, and how to do?) I totally can't find any solution around, there are so much expired download links, no tutorials, nothing...
[General Questions and Answers] tomashokenberi:
You may try to install launcher that support themes. Like Go Launcher, or install some "kitkat launcher" from Google Play.

it's won't go any further and resume bootloop,

[General Questions and Answers] coolizard:
It seems you don't have a custom recovery. You can try flash the firmware again, but all the instructions were in a thread by superdragonpt that was closed (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2503668). You can try search here for a suitable solution starting here: http://www.modaco.com/topic/371237-romsrecoveries-list-of-roms-for-asus-memo-hd-7/. There are a russion forum and a archive of the closed thread and the files needed, I think.

Good luck.

Mediatek USB port - hard brick

PDox68 can you please help me on this. I tried every suggestion on net regarding this issue. I tried to unbrick the Pad with the method of writing on EMMC memory but im getting error in the flash tool. That is because in Device manager the pad is recognized as "Mediatek USB port (Number of port)" not as Preloader or DA VCOM. I tried your suggestion to remove battery for 2 minutes but that thing works if the pad is recognized as Mediatek DA not in my case as Mediatek USB port. No matter how many times i remove the battery and plug again the connector the Pad is in same state. Its not recognized without batetry, when i plug the battery is recognized only as Mediatek USB port. So in this state i cannot flash it or proceed with the Unbrick method, im stuck at the first point (write - EMMC). Can you please help me what should I do here. I did not mention the Pad is dead no charging no power nothing works.

Android 4.4 on Memo Pad HD7??

Hi, I have a Memo Pad Hd 7 and I am looking for installing kitkat on it. Is it possible? and is it stable? My goal is to do mirroring with chromecast. Is there any other way to do this?

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] kristakos:
There is no kitkat for memo...because no source.What is the case with Chromecast?
[General Questions and Answers] superdragonpt:
No Kitkat

Not even kernel sourcecode for the Asus Releases (JB 4.2.2)

The sources they provided on their official site, are general sources, and not specific for this device.

--> Kernel sourcecode is the first step to build an higher OS build.

--> I have an semi-working kernel (for JB) but its far from complete, there's a lot of missing stuff...

You could spam Asus support to release the proper kernel sourcecode (i did this already), maybe if several people request it, we can get it!

With that, i could build an higher kernel (3.4.67 for KitKAt) and compile KK for the device

Cheers
[General Questions and Answers] SysGhost:
Spamming ASUS about it won't do anything.

The device uses a Mediatek chipset, and the ultimate desicion to open up the needed kernel sources for the chipset lies with Mediatek.

ASUS have signed a NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) with Mediatek in order to be "allowed" to use Mediatek chips in their devices. In other words ASUS are not allowed to release anything under any circumstances. Even if it means breaking GPL or other open source license forms. ASUS hands are tied and they cannot do anything about it even if they want to.

As if that isn't enough bad news, even worse are that Mediatek are one of the worst companies to deal with wqhen it comes to releasing source code. They simply refuse. Mediatek are one black sheep in the open source community. They use open open source code in their products, but refuses to recognise the licenses.

I've said it before, and I say it again: Stay away from Mediatek-based devices. They may be cheap, but they will not be updated at all. That is how Mediatek wants it. They want to force their costumers to throw away their "old" devices to buy new ones despite that the device is perfectly capable and in working order. That way Mediatek can sell more chipsets, as costumers are forced to buy new devices a few times per year.

Closing down the source code, and force manufacturers to sing NDAs = Controlling the market.

Once again: Stay away from Mediatek no matter how cheap their devices may be.

http://www.gizchina.com/2014/03/24/mediatek-dont-share-source-code/
[General Questions and Answers] jellysheep:
What files are exactly missing? The vendor/config files are there and the source is without binary blobs and builds. Sorry for asking again.

Did you successfully boot a self-compiled kernel? Could you please share your .config file and possible changes you made to the sources? And maybe the boot.img to test on other devices (WW version etc).

So far I couln't boot self-compiled kernels, but loading modules does work (except the video driver, which seems to expect a wrong firmware version).

If everything is detectable and drivers installed, you are failing somewhere in flashtool, because you must properly format the Memo flash and then install the new ROM(stock).Take a look in superdragonpt thread for our tablet for instructions.This link is kinda useful.

Hi guys, maybe someone here could help.

i use the latest rom from superdragonpt, and my internal memory is full, because of too much games. i installed them on sd, but the android is on internal memory, like you know.

i tried directorybind in different variations but it wont work. its a know issue for asus and this andoridversion i read.

then i installed exposed framework and the xinternalsd module. this is working, all moved apps running fine, till i do a normal restart and the moved apps wont load anymore.

i figured out, if i open exposed framwork and use the "software restart" button, its asking for supersu permission, restarts and the apps are working again.

if i go to exposed framework and use hardware restart it wont work anymore till the next software restart. is that normal thats its always asking for su permission? would it maybe work if supersu get permanent permission, if there is any option?

could somebody help with that or had a better way for this tablet to move apps completly to sd card?

edit: ok, so i had to move the framework and modules from sd to internal, reassign the apps and it is working.

great!

ES2 Taiji Score

Hi All,

I have been using Chinese tablet from years including AMLogic & Rockchip based. Recently i switched to Asus Memo Pad HD 7, it seems to fine in this price but I observed very low performance in ES2 Taiji benchmark. on Rockchip based tablet I get nearly 45 score but I am getting 15 on HD7, Is this related to poor GPU drivers or something else ?

I also tested Epic Citadel, and the score is fantastic. Anyone who has used Chinese tablets and tested these benchmark would be puzzled that why HD7 gives low score on ES2 Taiji ?

[General Questions and Answers] LaizyJumper:
I am not that sure about the hardware at all.

Asus is running kernel for MT6589 on that device.

MT8125 should be 1.5 GHz but this one runs on 1.2 GHz (as MT6589).

Same about GPU speed. 286MHz instead of 300 MHz.

Either it is actually not the actual MT8125 or Asus has been too lazy to deploy correct kernel for it. And perhaps it just reports wrong amount of RAM.

Not sure about that software piece that reports 2GB RAM either. All other hardware information apps report less than 1GB. Those may use kernel information only of course. But how this app gets 2GB? No signs on chip type or anything... And, personally I do not believe that ASUS has put more RAM into the device than advertised. Usually it is opposite ;)

[General Questions and Answers] LaizyJumper:
Please search play store for "hardware info" and try those apps. All of those except the one reports less than 1GB. Also device kernel reports 1GB.

And I do not really understand why did you expect to get 2GB of RAM. I am not able to find a device specifications including such information. No reason to complain about that.
