I was enjoying my tablet, but something happened this morning.

I picked it up, after had it lying on the table for about an hour with screen off and noticed it was warm, but not hot.

Now i cant boot it up, i get the first Teclast logo, then just black screen.

Please give suggestions, or is it broken some how ????

I noticed that there is some vague screen difference, so i sort of can notice if its on or not. But i cant enter boot mode, as the screen shows nothing but the first logo i mentioned.
[Device Reviews and Information] leroys:
Have you tried leaving on charge for a couple of hours? maybe battery drained when left alone, sometimes you get boot logo but not enough charge to go further? Sorry if you have tried this already but worth a shot
[Device Reviews and Information] Marvido:
Had around 74% battery left, but Thanks for the suggestion.

Is there a way to solve this through re root id like to hear about it. Or boot up via pc maybe?

I bought USB OTG Charger HUB with 4 ports at the same time to use the mouse + keyboard and charge the tablet.

I am downloading the firmware from teclast site, dont know if it will do me any good. How do i proceed from here, unless some one got a solution to my previous post ?

I am pretty sure that it turns on, as i get the first logo, then screen is "dimmed" but i can see it is turned on. And the tablet gets warm, but i cant see anything on screen. Its hard to explain, but i hope you undestand what im trying to explain here.

Update : somehow I managed to get inside boot, and did a factory reset. It is working again, and kept the root. I don't know what caused it, just happy it's working again.

camera problem, after reflash to android

Hello,

I have a problem when flashed back to Android ( after installing Windows ).

I falshed v1.13 to fix touch screen problem, but after that i have problem with front camera - it was showing images upside down.

I thinks there is some problem with camera libraries in this version of ROM.

The workaround is to flash system.img from version 1.03 (Who can be downloaded from teclast website) .

After Download the ROM, extract the files, in one folder you will find drivers and intel flash tool - install them. In other folder is ROM itself, extract files somewhere you can access them easily ( c:\rom is a good place and I will use it for this example ).

Open your Intel flash tools installation folder in Windows explorer ( c:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Manufacturing Flash Tool or c:\Program Files\Intel\Manufacturing Flash Tool ).

Then hold Shift key on your keyboard and click with right button on empty space in the folder -> from menu choice Open command window here.

Turn off your device, then hold VOL+ and Power button -> bootloader must be loaded on the device. Then plug the tablet to the PC and in command prompt type this:

fastboot flash system c:\rom\system.img ( wait to finish. DO NOT UNPLUG OR TURN OFF THE TABLET OR CLOSE COMMAND PROMPT)

fastboot continue ( Now the tablet must load android as normal )

Thats all. I home it will help to someone.

Sorry for my bad English.

Cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] BobBro:
From my understanding we have 2 different versions of the tablet so far. HKC1 and HKC2 I don't know what the difference is between the two other than they take different software.

HKC1 uses 1.10 and 1.11 version of the rom for android and 1.12 and 1.13 versions for windows. When you go back to android from windows you also need to go back to version 1.10 or 1.11 of the Rom

HKC2 uses version 1.03 and 1.04 of the Rom I don't know much about these versions as I have one of the first HKC1's that came out and I am still waiting for a stable version of KitKat to come out and flash.

I hope that helps a bit
[Device Reviews and Information] borovaka:
Mine is HKC2, but right now it is working with HKC1 Kernel (boot.img) + HKC2 Android ( sistem.img ). I think they are the same hardware or the guys from Teclast are compiled kernel with modules for both devices.

Hi,

I have a weird problem. I want to flash Win 8.1. But whenever i flash firmware > 1.11, the touchscreen works side-inverted.

What I tried:

1.12 - touchscreen side-inverted

back to 1.10 - touchscreen normally

1.11 - touchscreen normally

1.12 - touchscreen side-inverted

1.13 - touchscreen side-inverted

back to 1.10 - touchscreen normally

I tried virtually anything ... even full wipe from Recovery didn't help.

Or is this the usual behaviour in the windows firmwares 1.12 and 1.13 ?
[Device Reviews and Information] chernorat:
Firmwares 1.12 and 1.13 are the ones to use when installing windows 8.1 and also to come back to Android from Windows. They make changes in the touch screen driver to make it work in windows.

If you plan to use android, it is better to stay in 1.11

When i try to do this step: "ManufacturingFlashTool→File→Open→navigate to the unzipped X98 3G安卓固件 folder then select flash.xml, then your X98 will be flashed the latest firmware"

How do you update with the update app? its in chinese by me. Can you update to android kitkat?

some chinese apps, I can't 'remove.

Also, I dont find any GPS app on it, or is it hidden?

ThX
[Device Reviews and Information] sportfreund:
Thats why I said "I want to flash Win 8.1" ...

So, on 1.12 and 1.13 the touchscreen in Android does not work properly (at least it does work).

When I install Windows, the touchscreen does not work any more. I installed using 1.13. Then, after it didnt work, I downgraded to 1.12 and installed Windows again. Still, the touchscreen doesnt work after all.

In the Device Manager I have an "!" next to the "I2C HID". "The device cannot start (Code 10)" and "Returned an invalid HID descriptor"... same as someone on some spanish website: http://www.forocoches.com/foro/showthread.php?t=3673120&page=5

Any ideas?
[Device Reviews and Information] Logseman:
There is a hot fix for the screen in the Hispatablets forum.
[Device Reviews and Information] chernorat:
The same happened to me when I installed windows 8.1 from 1.11 (I am that user in forocoches that wrote the post you mention :D).

I made the touch screen work by just going back to android using firmware 1.12 and then installing windows 8.1 again. Maybe you could try going directly to 1.12 and install windows from there, instead of downgrading from 1.13. I think 1.13 was created due to the complains for the touchscreen response made by the users that returned to android to 1.12. Is your tablet version HKC1 or HKC2?

Edit:

I have just seen that as Logseman says, one user fixed the same problem in hispatablets forum:

http://hispatablets.com/teclast-x98/windows-pro-teclast-x98-t1160-140.html
[Device Reviews and Information] sportfreund:
Hi,

i had the HKC2 version. After I installed the update-zip from the Thread in the hispatablets forum, it was a HKC1. Weird.

Still, the file did not work. I downgraded to 1.11, installed the update, upgraded to 1.12 - again, the touchscreen went side inverted. After installing windows, it didnt work.

BUT I found a solution.

I installed the toolbox X98 which can be found here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2EtzBgf13KZM2ctV0FocVlzbTQ/edit

There is an update option in the script (option "c").

It installs another update, i dont know which.

After that, the touchscreen in 1.11 didnt work anymore.

I upgraded to 1.12 and the touchscreen worked just fine, no more side invertion.

I have to wait a few hours for the battery to load, until I can try another installation of Windows.
[Device Reviews and Information] chernorat:
When I tried to go back to Android, in the Teclast chinese forum I found that it was mandatory to go back to 1.12, as the touch screen stops working in 1.11. In this case, they said that you have to go to 1.10, and then upgrade to 1.11 to have that firmware functional again. I am not sure if all these firmwares are valid in the HKC2 version.

I hope windows will work fine for you now, if you managed to fix 1.12. By the way, in windows I had to deactivate the quick startup as the tablet sometimes got blocked in blue error screen during the startup.

x98 3G GPS and root problem

I got my X98 3G (version HKC2) yesterday and I have a few issues.

I still haven't managed to root it, I try all programs listed in the forum with no success. For HKC2 owners, how did you root your device?

The other problem is that GPS doesn't lock to satellites. does anybody has similar problem? I don't have sim card in, I assumed from Teclast ads that GPS in X98 3G is standalone GPS not assisted A-GPS. Does anybody know if it is true? I bought x98 3G for GPS feature mostly. If not I would go with P98 Air (octa A80T chip) or with X98Air, both are lighter, it seems that they are in new more robust case (more metal)and I was really excited about A80T.

Thanks

Thank you so much r4zor92.

It worked like a charm. I rooted my device. This is really the simplest and easiest way to root it. I installed Vroot and all other recommended programs (probably got something extra too) but couldn't root it.

INCREASE BATTERY LIFE

pokazywarka.pl/2gd7yc/#zdjecie12621383

NO HDMI

but you can use

hdmi widi wireless

ETHERNET

You can use external dongle USB2Lan.

I tested dongle JP1082 works OK but you need download "Ethernet Droid" from Google Play Store

pokazywarka.pl/xjwhfp/#zdjecie12621401

and turn on ethernet.

ADOBE FLASH

Works OK in native browser.

GPS

It works better when rotated tablet in a vertical position.

LAUNCHER

Nova Launcher from Google Play Store is a good choice.

5GHz WIFI

You see 5GHZ in settings but don't work.

"Your device is not compatible with this app"

Sometimes you can download app from Google Play Store but you need change ID device.

Try "Market Helper".

codekiem.com/2013/02/13/market-helper/

XBMC

Works but you need download xbmc-13.2-Gotham-armeabi-v7a.apk (ARM version).

OpenVPN.

Download from Google Play Store:

(programmer Friedrich Schäuffelhut)

OpenVPN Installer

OpenVPN Settings

OpenVPN Connect

You need also openvpn folder and files inside:

(depends on the encryption method)

example:

ca.crt

client.crt

client.key

client.ovpn

-------------------

Few apps don't work.

In Google Play Store I don't see app on list OR if I try install I see error

"Your device is not compatible with this app"

If I download manualy app and I try install I see error "No shared library"

But for now I don't know WHY.

I have Google Maps on tablet but missing (not install) 2 files:

/system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.maps.xml

You can download from this site

mediafire.com/download/m9uhwv08u1r4hum/gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip

,extract 2 files and copy to folder etc and framework and REBOOT

Now if you go to Google Play Store you see more apps or not.

Sometimes you need change ID device using Market Helper.

Even if you do not see apps try download manually *.apk (to PC or another android device) copy to tablet and install manually.

HELP - stuck in boot logo (only fastboot working)

Hello everybody, hope someone can help me unbricking my device. I have my Teclast X98 some days and now wanted to try someting new - windows 8.1! After reading these 25 pages 3x, I have decided to use the Toolbox and automatically let it do the job. But after option "d) Flash a firmware" the tablet only booted into the intel boot logo and stuck there forever. ADB is not working, only fastboot is recognizing the tablet.

I have tried againg the Toolbox, but no reaction (daemon starting.....but nothing more). I also tried the intel Flash Tool and the new Phone flash tool from #241 to reflash android again, but both abort after several attempts (IFW flash dailed after 41 attempts).

I even tried to flash manually via fastboot (e.g. "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"). File sending was okay, but then "FAILED (remote failure)"...

Anybody can help me?
