INTRODUCTION:

Thanks to Oma7144's great work on the RK30 Odys Genio, and otyg for confirming this ROM works on the Pipo S1...

CURRENT POST STATUS:

DRAFT. Requires feedback. Works for me, your mileage may vary.

WARNINGS:

1. Read the entire post and decide if you can do everything before you begin.

2. I am not the ROM developer.

2. Read the development thread yourself to ensure I'm not telling lies.

3. Following in my footsteps might destroy your data, device or marriage.

RESOURCES:

Downloadables: Crew RKTablets and Downloads.

Developer topic: RK3066 Tab Genio by Oma rocks !.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Where am I up to? Looks like a lot of steps, but I've really spelt it out. Take your time.

1. Perform a recovery backup or manually Backup your data. I backup app data using Helium to external SD.

NOTE: Recovery backup might not work cleanly between versions of recovery.

2. Download the CM10.1 files from here:

- Odys Genio Beta v1.3.2

- format_NAND_fix

- Pipo S1 kernel

- 3.0.36+ CWM

3. Extract 'CrewRKTablets_RK30_Genio by Oma_CM10.1_v1.3.2.7z'

4. Delete the 'kernel.img' and 'recovery.img' files from /rockdev/image folder (Odys Genio Kernel/recovery is not compatible with Pipo S1)

5. Extract 'RK3-_kernel_308_s1_pipo2.7z' and 'Oma_RK30_3.0.36+_CWM_6.0.3.1.7z' archives to the /rockdev/image folder

6. Copy the 'Oma RK30 CM10.1 Format NAND.zip' archive to the external microSD card

7. Hard-off the tablet by long pressing the power button (4+ seconds)

8. Insert microSD card

9. Hold down the VOL- button while inserting microUSB cable to enter download mode

10. Start the 'RKAndroidTool.exe' found in the 'RKDevelopTool_v1.35' folder (right-click, run as administrator)

NOTE: The tool should say 'Found RKAndroid Loader Rock Usb'.

11. Hit 'EraseIDB' and wait for success (Clears partition table)

12. Hit 'Run'

Once 'INFO: Run OK', Pipo S1 will boot into recovery

**RECOVERY SHOULD BE v6.0.3.1**

13. Wipe cache

14. Wipe data/factory reset

15. Install zip from external card: Oma RK30 CM10.1 Format NAND.zip

16. Reboot.

17. Wait 5 minutes.

18. Once the tablet starts, select your prefered launcher, hit 'immer' (always).

19. Set the language to English:

- Hit the setting icon, 'Systemeinstellungen',

- Scroll down to 'Sprache & Einabe',

- Set 'Sprache' to your desired language.

20. Turn on and set up WiFi:

- In WiFi, toggle 'on'

- Hit the setting icon

- Select advanced

- Set keep WiFi on during sleep to Never (or Only when plugged in at least) to save battery

22. Fix landscape menu buttons not appearing

- Go to play store, sign in.

- Install Textdroider DPI from play store

- Set DPI to 120.

- Apply.

- Reboot.

Unresolved Issues:

- Wifi takes a few seconds to connect from sleep

- camera (front facing only) is upside down

- display artifacts on screen rotation

Troubleshooting:

Problem: If you get stuck with installs the loop you back to recovery constantly, you probably have CWM-based Recovery v6.0.1.5. This recovery does not work with the original Pipo S1 kernel.

Solution: Use recovery 6.0.3.1 with kernel RK3-_kernel_308_s1_pipo

Problem: You find yourself stuck in recovery with no way to power off

Solution: Select a menu item, highlight ++++Go Back++++, when you press the power button, do not let go until tablet powers off.

Hopefully this helps others with a Pipo S1 get Oma's CM10.1 v1.3.2 installed.
