Just run Philz Recovery. It works great! No problem at all installing either AOSP or CM11. The problem is, the older recoveries do not support selinux, which is pretty much required for 4.4.+ installs.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/4iljav9frsi6uzr/Philz-touch-6.0.4.7-selinux-flashable-sero7pro.zip
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
Same. Philz is great! I love all of the options in there- Philz must be why half the devs I know in person spend more time in recovery than in the OS. Philz is the PAC of CWM in terms of features :)
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] boonesmi:
im not fond of the interface for cwm or philz, i much prefer twrp.

also i don't really care about all the extra features. I only use the recovery to do a couple things, and i love the way twrp does those things.

youtube video

would somebody make a youtube video. From start to finish. Im new at this and I can not seem to load this rom. I did have a person saying they would make a video but im still waiting.

thanks

Look up Babbling Boolean on YouTube. He has rooting instructions. I'll make the ROM flashing portion.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
im rooted, heres the thing. I got rooted and loaded xboxexpert thing, thing and when I look at my about tablet it do not say CWM but I know I have it installed. I tried to put this mod on and I thought I bricked it, but was able to un-brick it. I tried goomanager, it shows this rom so I thought it would install easy, but nope didn't work. This is all new to me and I know with a video I can get this takitk rom installed. I did see the video you talking about, but I rooted using Vroot. Please use sound,,,just hate those videos with people typing. Im ready to get this mod on my tablet. I am surprised its not more videos on youtube for this tablet as it should become popular. It's in Walmart, which is everywhere and its fast and good price. Should have been 2 or 3 rooting and flashing videos with this tablet on there.

thanks

CWM does not show up in the About Tablet dialog. You have to power off the tablet, then power it back on while holding down the Power button and Volume minus.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
can you make the video installing Philz Recovery that you talked about than install the taktik rom?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
Same, typing is awful.

You're new do you don't know this but VRoot is thought to be malicious. Do it the proper way ASAP.

CWM won't show up in your "about tablet" screen. Access it by powering down then holding Volume Up and Power.

Found my Sero 7

Well, I found my tablet so I'll be able to test new builds.?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Gazoo119:
Except its volume down and power. Volume up and power takes you to fastboot. Just want to be clear to avoid any confusion as I was once confused by that. As always thanks for helping out.:)

---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 PM ----------

i did the dopa root and it says im rooted what is next? where is the files you have on yours?

also when i put the dopa on do it delete anything? because everything seems the same

Has it installed Clockworkmod? Shut down your tablet then hold Volume Down and Power until you see a green "RECOVERY" screen. When it loads if you see a green android you don't have Clockworkmod but if you see a gear with a hat on and an orange arrow you've got Clockworkmod.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
yes its installed ,,,hat and orange round arrow clockworkmod recovery v6.0.3.2 i was reading the rom your using do not have wifi
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
It's got WiFi but it's borked in the current version. I'm working on a fix.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
do i use the wipe data/factory reset now its loaded?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
You only need to factory reset if you flash a ROM. I would still do it periodically since Android benefits from a full wipe.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
just did new wipe, so do i try the taktik now?

---------- Post added at 12:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 AM ----------

the file from taktik say its goomanager if I download goomanager do i install this rom using goomanager?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
First go into the taktiK thread, and in the OP go under "recoveries". Download Clockworkmod 6.0.4.5. Then go into recovery mode and select "install zip". Go into sdcard0 then downloads, and flash the newer version of Clockworkmod that you downloaded. Then reboot your recovery. This version of Clockworkmod is mandatory to run the Kitkat ROMs.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
can I call you? or you call me? I hit the download and it comes back to same page. I downloaded files on computer and transfered to sd card as zip but I do not see the zip
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
Which folder did you transfer the zip file to?

If we can't get this working I'll PM you my Skype.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
i put zip on sd card was it suppose to be in downloads in android?

---------- Post added at 01:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 AM ----------

ok got it done i had to put in downloads on device not sd card,,,now am I good to go with taktik? do i put in the same place and flash?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
Does your clockworkmod say version 6.0.4.5? If so you're good to go.

Download taktiK.

Download GApps. These are needed to access most of Google's services. MAKE SURE you get some for 4.4.2, I use PA GApps Micro Modular.

Flash taktiK.

Wipe data/factory reset.

Wipe cache.

Go under advanced settings, and select "wipe dalvik cache".

Reboot and you should be granted with a red taktiK screen. It's buggy, so the animation will turn black. Ignore that, it will happen.

Complete the Setup Wizard.

Reboot back into recovery and flash GApps.

Enjoy taktiK :)

Follow the same instructions to flash other 4.4 ROMs such as Gummy, PAC or CM11, the only difference being that you flash GApps right after flashing the ROM.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] MrSimmonsSr:
Jerbear, you are a kind and patient soul.. :)
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Nomad692000:
Was thinking the samething.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
i got it started on taktik but it says setup wizard stop working,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, would that be gapps? i used 4.2.2 core version
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
Did you flash the GApps before going into taktiK for the first time? That normally causes the issue.

This time don't wipe anything and just flash taktiK, complete the setup wizard, and then flash the GApps. If that doesn't work try Gummy, AOSP, PAC, Carbon, or another 4.4 ROM. They don't have that issue.

EDIT: Just saw your edited post. This time get 4.4.2 GApps, not 4.2.2 GApps.

I don't know what to say to that... Thanks, guys! XDA is the best, I love this website :)
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
i also want to thank you for your time. I tried it and with gapps 4.4.2 standard, so I guess i need to try a different rom its saying setup wizard has stopped. I dont know which to try now, but i'll look

I loaded taktik first than gapps than reboot
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jerbear294:
PAC is the most customizable but the current build is unstable. If you want to try that one I'll give you an earlier stable version (Soon posting it in the PAC thread as well)

Gummy is very stable. Carbon is also a great option. By far the most stable would be AOSP 4.4.2, and I believe [MENTION=4434105]Bdadd34[/MENTION] is working on liquidsmooth. That ROM is butter.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] rookiefool:
I did not get the taktik to work.I tried and fail 2 more time,,,,,,, but I did get the AOSP v4.4.2_r1 rom loaded and its sweet nice and de-bloated.

thanks you again for all your time and helping me with how roms are loaded. I think you went out of your way to make sure I got my tablet up-graded. I was walking around in da dark and you took my hand and guided me to the light. Now I can see,,,,,lol

your 100 in my book :laugh::good::laugh:

FYI Last nights cm-11 nightly was really buggy. They made a bunch of changes today so I will make a build and see if it is any better. As for those wanting speed on my builds since 3/25 use Trickster MOD and change the cpuquiet governor to userspace. it will lock all high power cores on. That is the change I made, I changed the default from userspace to balance and in some runnable_threads. Both start cpu hot plugging on those 4 high power cores. Trying to maximize battery.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Gazoo119:
AOSP is great but the built in sound effects don't work and therefore no external equalizer will work either....including V4A. This also causes problems with some other apps. Also this means that anyone building off of the AOSP rom will have the same problem unless they have fixed it. Delorespark was working it but haven't heard anything about a fix yet from him. Other than that the rom is super stable....no wifi or bluetooth issues and no SOD.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] dolorespark:
I finally got that fixed last night - both the built-in soundfx and V4A work as they should. I'll do a new build and try to get it out in the next few days (I work weekends, so time is scarce).

BTW... this build will also include video-only WiFi Display (a.k.a. Miracast). Be forewarned: you will

not

be impressed. On my late-model Samsung TV, it takes 5 seconds for changes on the tablet's screen to appear on the TV.

Hey Dave. FYI, your latest 20140405 CM-11 nightly download does not have public access.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] davepmer:
Woops, ok I actually had it set for full web access. FYI might have problems overclocking, CM changed the ramdisk in the nightly's meaning I now have to make an overclock for the stables and another for the nightly's.. Going to try to fix the access rights.

Should have access. FYI 04062014 nightly that I am now testing has more kernel changes to it. (taken from the tf700t kernel) If it works reasonably well through church tomorrow I will upload it tomorrow afternoon (EDT)
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] lexridge:
I am running the stable 04-05 currently. Should, or can I use this newer kernel with it? I am really not liking the lag of this one (overclocked). I am thinking the cores are just not waking up fast enough, or something. Perhaps they are not waking up at all.

I am leaving for Vegas in the morning for NAB, but I will check often via tapatalk for your download post.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] davepmer:
I have not yet made a stable over clock with the kernel changes, so right now that's a no it won't work. However to test to see if locking the cores on will help the lagging, download trickster MOD go to tricksters last screen and change the cpuquiet governor to user space.

userspace will lock all cores on with the tablet awake

Balanced will try to evenly distribute the work on the 4 cores

Runnable threads will try to distribute the running threads on the 4 cores

Both balanced and runnable turn off unused cores.

If the changes seem stable I will try making a stable build with them.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] lexridge:
Doing that was really bad!!! The tablet is hardly usable because it is so lagged. I have lots of experience building kernels too. When I get back from Vegas, and time pending, I will try my hand at it. Can I also use SetCPU for this task? I already own that.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] davepmer:
Trickster is free. And yes something I or cm changed slowed down the system. In the afternoon I will undo my changes till I find what slows it down.

OK undid some changes, and got an overclocked score of 15572. I am going to reverse my idea and make the build overclocked and try having a zip to un overclock. See if that helps.

Good news. I tested the WiFi Display, and I found it more than acceptable. My impression is that the TV had about a 1/4th second delay. I tried YouTube and the video had the same 1/4th second delay, very acceptable. I had two problems, I keep loosing connection to the dongle, but I'm almost certain that is the dongle firmware issue as this dongle has the same issue on the Nexus 7 2013 and required a firmware update. The second issue is that the Sero 7 Pro restarted occasionally with WiFi Display enabled. I'll try to find a firmware update for the dongle before I do more testing, but it seems promising. Perhaps the 5 second delay is more to do with your TV.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] chopin_k:
Wondering if maybe only turning off up to 2 unused cores would provide high battery life gains while keeping the tablet reasonably responsive.

AOSP Patches Available

For the benefit of the developers among us, I've created a new repo at GitHub containing the patches I used to build AOSP 4.4.2_r1: android_patches_hisense_m470bsa. See the repo's readme for additional info.

Except for the Hisense-specific patches I've posted here (e.g. the A2DP fix), most of them are already incorporated into CM11's codebase. Among those which aren't are my two Miracast patches. You can find them in 'device/hisense/m470' and 'frameworks/av'. Note that these patches don't enable audio because it generates 2500 error messages per minute under AOSP. To find out if it works correctly under CM, see the diff for audio_policy.conf - it describes the trivial change needed to enable audio,

So far, I'm liking this rom. I used the Paranoid Android apps instead with the GEL launcher & camera. No noticeable problems.

One question, though: What is the easiest way to change the build. prop to a Nexus 7?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] davepmer:
Do you think your patches would work to build Paranoid Android? if so I might try to.

Also, I have ran into a weird problem. All the builds since 0325 act weird. The original build will get good scores, but if you flash a kernel to it, even the same kernel, the scores go way down. If you flash the entire build with only the kernel different the scores are good. HOW?

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] dolorespark:
Which ROM are you referring to? If it's my AOSP v1 ROM, I can whip up a CWM-installable build.prop file. I'll post it to that thread within the next day.

I don't know what that codebase looks like. You'd probably have to go through each patch to see if they've already fixed whatever problem the patch addresses. In general, I doubt that PA has so radically altered the C++ code these patches apply to that they'd be unusable.

That's definitely a head-scratcher. Are you sure you're keeping your kernel in sync with the files in /system/lib/modules?

I'm definitely unimpressed. Looks like the 2014 version of a "cheap Chinese tablet": Chinese SOC, crap cameras, and no GPS. It's more like the Sero 7 non-Pro than our tablet.

WiFi Display

[MENTION=5094650]dolorespark[/MENTION]

I have updated my Freelander AP20 using the CloudnetGO CR-M200S firmware 3.0.0-rc2 and your AOSP 4.4 DoPa ROM works reliably. No reboots on the tablet either. I do see the video lag you are talking about, but that mostly happens when there are a lot of apps open, or on some games when there is a lot of touch events. In YouTube videos in full screen, the display lag can't be detected when looking at the tablet and then looking at the TV. You have to hold the tablet in front of the TV to even see the small lag. Therefore, it seems like applications such as browsing, or playing videos, it's ideal, but for some highly interactive games with a lot of video changes, it's not so good. I primarily wanted it for videos anyway.

I know that audio may be tough to implement, but I would use WiFi Display on both my tables if audio worked. Once WiFi Display is enabled, you can easily connect as it puts another item in the same drop down menu as WiFi, Bluetooth, Brightness, etc.

It compiles so far . I have been peaking at some custom grouper kernels. It might be reasonable to start from there and throw sero 7 in rather than trying to add all these custom kernel changes from scratch. What do you think about that?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] randomblame:
meh probably want to just get a quick custom kernel out with some basic functionality then start work on moving sero changes to something like the grouper 3.2.x kernel or the tegra 3.4 kernel that'll take a lot of hair pulling and time

looking through it seems that they did in fact base it off the enterprise board files like I figured but they also added their mach types MACHINE_START(M470, "m470")

m470 MACH_M470 M470 4373

m470bsd MACH_M470BSD M470BSD 4375

m470bss MACH_M470BSS M470BSS 4376

Either the latest one (m470_v2_80032_gasgauge_defconfig) which was probably used for the most recent update or the previous one (m470_v2_defconfig). Do a diff to see what changed (some thermal & debug stuff).

Definitely don't use m470bsd* or m470bss* which contain board IDs for models sold in other countries (BSS is the Aussie version). While this may not have any effect on the kernel itself, it probably affects other stuff (like which OTA update you get).

Lol m470_v2_defconfig I already figured it out. Based on defconfig pulled from sero.

My kernel is strictly for cm support. I don't plan on adding all that custom that. I'll leave that up to randomblame. CM doesn't allow those type of kernels.
