[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NamelessFragger:
I still don't trust KingoRoot after all the reports of stealing IMEIs and other such data. towelroot is proven, and I'll toss up a Dropbox link for you all if needed. It's actually taken from an archived version of the site anyway.

http://web.archive.org/web/20140616011907/http://towelroot.com/

Both of my cameras work, though neither are particularly good in the image quality department. Not sure what to say there regarding the camera app crashing.

Also, I apologize for being many months late to this, but ever since the Wacom forums went down and this thread got buried, I didn't think I'd get in contact with the CCH community at large again:

I tried v3, and it failed. v1 worked.

I've had no updates on the source code situation over these past few months, so consider that trigger pulled, even if they've lost the source.

Anyway, let me reiterate my findings, many of which are going to make development on this a pain:

-There is no fastboot mode. Seriously, I have yet to find a way to get it to work, because the usual adb commands don't work. It may not even be present. Because of this, I don't even know if the bootloader's locked or unlocked. We can only pray it's the latter.

-APX mode is present like you'd expect on a Tegra device (assuming ExpressKeys on left, hold the top two buttons down while powering on until the status LED flashes red), but without a proper image to use with Nvflash, it's of no use. I doubt Wacom has such a recovery image to give us in the first place.

-The stock recovery is the most useless stock recovery I've ever seen! Your only option is to hit the center rocker button or the power button to reboot normally, as there's no menu.

-Backing up the boot and recovery partitions is trivial with Flashify, or more recently, FlashFire once you're rooted. What ISN'T trivial is just unpacking and repacking them consistently, such that the repacked version with no change to the contents is identical to the original. Maybe I just haven't found the right tools yet.

-I have not tested any attempts to reflash the recovery partition yet. Compiling TWRP is a bit in over my head, especially for a device without proper kernel sources, and the CWM Builder site's long dead. TWRP has no equivalent. At least you don't have to worry about things like getting Cintiq mode working in recovery, which should simplify things should we have to resort to using generic Tegra 4 sources.

-NVIDIA's dropped software support for Tegra 4, so it doesn't have official kernel/driver/whatever code updates for Android Marshmallow onward. Porting the latest Nougat over may prove even more troublesome as a result, and it's already confirmed that the Remix Ultratablet (which uses the same SoC) won't be getting RemixOS 3.0 officially because of it.

The cards are stacked against us, but nevertheless, I still feel this is one piece of hardware that deserves some community support since Wacom let everyone down on updates.

The CCH express keys work great with Clover Paint. The app will let you assign them to in-app functions, also different stylus states such as touching the screen vs hover. I believe that TVpaint also uses the buttons.

Still hoping for a reliable root method, and maybe update to KitKat 4.4 at least...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duende101:
I successfully used Kingroot. I attempted root because mine is stuck in some bizarre 4.1.1 netherworld and nothing google works.

However, I have no idea how to make a back up from here. (no USB connection to PC issue) or what rom will work as my device is not listed as supported by any of them.

I am afraid to use the wrong custom rom as the cintiq mode, pen function like abilities may be disabled or rendered useless with just any android rom.

Any one know what version of CWM recovery to use?

Hi [MENTION=1958005]NamelessFragger[/MENTION]!

I am wondering if there is some progress in CCH OS updating. :)

From what I read till now here, I see that you're closer to achieve that than anyone else. I mean with Desktop Mode working and this kind of stuff.

Also, I've got a question if you'd consider creating 'noob-friendly' instrunctions of the process. :)

A lot of apps seem to be crashing quite often on the CCH with Android 4.x Desperately looking for some way to update Android on the Cintiq companion hybrid. Writing out the full name here in hopes that more people with the product searching for the same keep the thread alive and some Captain shows up to make it happen. Support from Wacom on this expensive tablet has been absolutely useless!!

Not even looking for root. I'll just take an update.. Anything to get this working better as a tablet. It's also really worrying that security on these outdated Android versions is questionable.. Please help! Anyone! Even the smallest of help here would still be tons more than what Wacom has offered so far on this product

Another CCH user here.. Bought a used one and hoped I could use the free version of TV-Paint Android on it,

only to find out that it only runs from OS 5 and upwards.

Now I found out that you are only able to download films in the netflix app from OS 4.2.2. on makes me want to sell it again.

Is there any hope on upgrading the CCH to Android 5 by preserving the ability to plug it into the computer and to use it

as a regular cintiq?

Thanks!

Edit: I found this: movenewblogreviews(dot)blogspot.com/2015/02/working-tutorial-how-to-updateupgrade_29(dot)html

For what it's worth, resurrecting this ancient thread to report that the latest Kingoroot from their website successfully roots the tablet, no problems whatsoever.

The touchscreen on my CCH died, so I was left with no option to use multi touch gestures like pinch. Had to root it finally so I could use the Assistive Zoom app, so tried Kingoroot and it just worked.

Hope this helps someone.

Cintiq owner

Hi. I am having a problem with my cintiq hybrid. Have not used it in a while.

It seems that my device attempted a frimware update, but the "package is damaged" and I cannot reset the device because the rocker keys and home button do not work in tablet mode.

When its plugged into my PC, it works just fine with the buttons. So its a solid Cintiq on PC, but a cintiq without those buttons in android.

I downloaded the latest firmware in a zip from a forum recently. Saw the same one linked here a couple pages back. I feel installing it will get my functionality back, but I do not know any other way of installing it. Without the rocker keys and buttons working, I cannot trigger the boot sequence.

Are there installers which can load the firmware on for me?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Behamut:
So I'm sure interest in this project is dead but I thought I'd thank those that put in some hard work on it anyway. With the root tool I was able to root though given that I've just now pulled the trigger on trying anything with this surprisingly expensive but amazing hardware I had to find old versions that work on the device. Someone complained about not being able to do anything beyond rooting and I say I did with installing Linux along side with Linux deploy. I'm exploring the options but there's a git hub Linuxwacom.github.io that has Kernel and Linux drivers that I will be trying to see if they can work within there. If so I lose nothing of the android capabilities and gain full featured Linux

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] chen1911:
Hi I just bought a new Kindle fire hdx , after root it. I am unable to access photo gallery and Kindle appStore:crying:. Would like to know , is anybody can provide 8.9" original rom of Kindle fire hdx 8.9". Thanks a lot.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] craigs_lv:
Missing here as well ...

By the way, awesome work all!!!

Like the OP, I too am missing my "Photo Gallery" post root from last night. My device is a kindle fire hdx 8.9 appears to have rooted ok but with a couple curiosities .... I will continue to try and fix what I can or at least get a better understanding of what went awry and share what I find. However, if any of you experts have some insight into these "issues" I would very much appreciate your constructive feedback / input.

The first issue is the missing "Photo Gallery". Oddly, no apps which rely on it for loading / saving image data are able to find it ... I see a partial folder structure in DCIM (a couple sub-folders are gone when browsing to the DCIM folder inside "internal storage" via my USB to PC connection through Windows explorer); however, when browsing to the DCIM folder located inside of "emulated/0" via ES Explorer local to the device, I see an apparently complete (or more complete) list of folders and files than those seen from Windows in "internal storage/DCIM/". I was thinking about copying data from "emulated/0" to the "internal storage" location to see if that makes any difference. But im not sure what's an actual folder and what's just a symbolic link to a folder some place else in storage... and would prefer to not further "Bork" the device if possible.

Also, I think the "Photo Gallery" app itself is completely gone from the device ... I was hoping to find a way to restore it or find an alternative solution that allows my other apps, which need the "missing" Photo Gallery for normal operations, to function again. The error messages I get from apps trying to access photo data or that need to save new data don't state that they can't locate or save files, they state that they can't locate "Photo Gallery".

Second issue, also post root from last night ... I was not successful in removing the advertisements which appeared on the lock screen pre root. The root tool / method I followed seemed to work without error but the option to remove the ads didnt effect any noticeable change. I was going to try some apps that modify wallpaper etc to see if that wgorks ... but again, any insight or assistance with getting this resolved would be most helpful too.

Many thanks in advance!

How did you do it? I have had zero issues & I can pretty well GARUNTEE I have had more bricks, bootloops & soft bricks than any other HDX owner.

Did you edit on desktop & just copy over? If you edit on desktop instead of the live build.prop, you need to move it to another folder first, then chown/chmod before using adb to cp it.

Otherwise with root explorer & a few other explorers, it works fine, all of the billion times I have done it. Once again, since we are dealing with a Linux-ish OS, even then I always check the permissions (chmod) & ownership (chown).

Either that, or like a few others, you grabbed the wrong build.prop.

[HTC EVO 3D] despotovski01:
Hello guys. So, here's the thing, the camera on my EVO 3D has stopped working approximately a month and a half ago. Sometimes it would just show up, and then freeze and crash. It's a hardware problem, as it happens both on the official and custom ROMs and AOSP builds. I think it happened when the phone fell once from my pocket when I was running. It was a nasty fall and the phone hit the ground hard back-faced. The protective glass of the camera is not broken though. Has anybody else had such a problem, and do you know how much will it cost to be repaired? My warranty has expired a long time ago.
[HTC EVO 3D] siljo22:
Maybe it's the cable that's connecting camera to mainboard got loose. If you can try dissembling phone and reconnecting cable. A friend of mine got similar issue and that helped him.
[HTC EVO 3D] despotovski01:
Thanks a lot for your reply. I have also thought of that, but wasn't 100% sure. Is it hard to disassemble this phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] siljo22:
Well I think it's easy you just need to remove couple of screws and take off back housing, then you'll see couple ribbon cables. Cable for the camera is at side where micro usb port is, the one closer to battery connector.

Before doing anything take look at THIS site where disassembly is explained with pictures

Hi so when I first got my nexus 7 2013 I unlocked the boot loader and rooted it, everything was fine until I got an ota update, I lost root and I just didn't bother to try rooting it again, I'm currently on 4.4.2 and I believe the boot loader is still unlocked as I have that little open lock when the device is turned on.

What should I do exactly to root my device again? I don't want to lose my data and I don't want to start again but from what I've read the only thing that requires the complete reset is the unlocking of the boot loader so rooting shouldnt effect my data at all?

If I install a CWM Recovery then flash a ROM do I void warranty?If yes is there anyway that I can make it so it's like I never flashed anything so the warranty will still last?

If yes what is the best rom I can install for LOCKED bootloader(I don't want to unlock it)?
