I am really satisfied with the tablet overall. If Onda releases KitKat, this tab will be a killer regarding the price. The predecessor, the normal 975 has already official 4.4 update from onda. I think it is only a matter of time before they bring it to our device.

***Update***

Root is not permanent. It seems to disappear after a few reboots. :(

---------- Post added at 05:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:51 AM ----------

My 64GB card works fine but the 32GB one unmounts whenever I lock my screen. I've read that the solution is to reformat the card in the tablet. I'll try it out later after I backup the card.

***Update***

Had to format my 32GB card in my Galaxy Note 3 as there no option to do it in the V975m.

Tested my newly formatted card in the Tablet, but the problem still persists. :(

I have installed "Viral" from Market and YouTube works just fine. Video up to 720p. 1080p option is available, but not working for me.
[Device Reviews and Information] RbrtV:
HDMI Switcher control

I had similar problem, until I used HDMI v1.4 ( high speed ) adapter and cable. Adapter listed on ebay ( item # 281226188546 ) this was described as 3 pack HDMI v1.4 high speed ROHS with Ethernet, trimmed 1/4 inch ( semi-hard plastic jacket ) from male end,.

Connected to ( Acer ) HDMI monitor(s) for initial tests.

Once physical connection is made and target external device port is open ( viewable / selected source on the external device ), Requires the HDMI Switcher app / launcher and select 720 or 1080 as the connection setting.

* If v975m did not confirm active external device connection, HDMI Switcher window closed and only tablet is viewable.

If external device is " blank " confirm signal processing out from tablet - through HDMI Switcher app / launcher.

Worked with other HDMI input devices, audio also worked with HDMI v1.4. ( Video and Audio, single cable transfer ) designed devices

Using HDMI different v1.3 cables had differing results with connections to the same devices

Don't forget tablet battery demand use increases

As noted in other forums / sites - there exists an issue between tablet size screen format ratio and T.V. / input device format size resolution.

* Aspect Ratio mis-match :Tablet near 4:3 ratio vs. device(s) default Wide Screen 16:9 / 16:10 etc. ratios

Some devices may require you to re- initiate ( run set up program ) for that device connection to sync devices

Well, I got my Onda V975M today and it's the best tablet i've ever used. I compared it to my Dad's iPad Air and it had no chance. Updated to V1.0.6 and rooted. Onda's launcher is very laggy, I really want to use Espier Launcher 7 butthe screen seems to bug out and make the launcher look twice as big. Might have to try out Nova Launcher, just hope Onda release a stable version soon. At least now i have something to play Heroes of Order and Chaos on, well, without any lag and a beautiful display. Oh and I can confirm my Mali-450 MP6 is octacore, just to clear that up!

Are you running AntutuX or Antutu ?

Thank you!
[Device Reviews and Information] Morgz159:
So from the pictures I provided you figured that out, if so, perfect! (I know about the whole vertices and pixel processor thing and that's what I was hoping for, just needed someone to confirm it on my device, got a bit worried)

I am running v1.0.6 and I just used plain Antutu, got 30,287.

The tablet runs my games perfectly (Minecraft on full settings, Heroes of Order and Chaos on full settings, Modern Combat 4 with full settings. Pretty much any graphicly intensive game runs as smooth as butter)
[Device Reviews and Information] spifey:
Think how much it would be if we got a custom rom/kernel and even Pi****u for our device.

I'm guessing upward in the 40-45k range.

Let's just hope some developers decide to do some work on these.

But as any Chinese released devices go. We can only dream.

Haven't they released the source for our device already?

card issue

This seems to be continuing issue.

1.08 seems to improve card recognition and accessibility.

If you use Quick Boot feature, turn off and see if your experience differs.Waiting a "boot" minute and my mSD is actuated properly in seconds, without the notification bar repeated messages instilling fear of absolute device failure.

Quick Boot enabled exaggerates both mSD and WiFi problems among other device related issues.

With Quick boot Dis-Abled, I have not experienced mSD card actuation / initiation problem or device " freeze " issues when using apps, movies, etc stored or installed on card. I use both 16 GB and 64 GB cards - 1.08 seems to have settled many issues, with quick boot turned off

v975m com has a dedicated forum for the v975m device.

---------- Post added at 11:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 AM ----------

That is the v1 still a good price. Other sites listing Bluetooth model v3 listing around 259 - 269 USD range

with 1.08 ROM

Battery so far ( 30 hrs installed ) 5.5 - 7.25 hrs dependent on use with Quick Boot turned off (internet, mSD .avi HD movies )

Battery with quick boot enabled - I was lucky to get 5.5 hrs = 14% charge available with wi-fi constant enabled

Others reporting 3.5 - 7 hrs those specifying quick boot use vs. quick boot disabled avg. 20-50% fluctuations in battery life dependent on the specific uses
[Device Reviews and Information] dwg_priest:
...and how do we disable quick boot?
[Device Reviews and Information] RbrtV:
At shut down, Un-check Quick start box ... Above the confirm shut down button. OR settings area ... Also disable wireless in the Display - if you do not use WiDi for TV etc.
[Device Reviews and Information] vgiozo:
The difference between the two options comes up when used, i.e. when you power off and select the quick boot checkbox

Just turning off the option in settings while not actually using the "quick boot" power off mode, yields no advantage.

You might want to research and try " SD Card Maker " a special recovery type tool for

v975m devices only.

V975M com - forums - ROMS and FirmWares - SD Card Maker, explains a simple overview and provides links that offer detailed instruction with highlighted pics. Several other sites / forums recommend SDcardMaker ( last resort ) and refer to same sites / forums. Most other sites have not described the overall process quite so simply.
