Do think this is something can be fixed by Teclast in the new batches? (same SOC, same PCB) The seller says in new batches (dual boot - C9J8) there wont be such issues.. should we believe them?

Windows Cleaner translated (EN)

Hi Guys,

i followed the topic a long time. Since Christmas i got a x98 Air 3G too. I made some work and translated the Windows Cleaner App from the Windows Development Post into English. Could

not translate everything

because i do not own the source code. The work has been done using a resource hacker tool. Might be useful for some of you guys out there.

Update:

I know i am a new user. It's your choice if you trust me or not.

Here is a screenshot and the virustotal scan. [IMG="Screen1"]http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.com/3/1/0/1/5/9/4/screenshot.jpg?key=JaoL2SZPO95g96jgRIPz8A&ts=1420571410[/IMG]

Everything is possible ...

Working thermal management SW could address the issue.

Proper thermal management materials will improve the situation.

And finally, any basic quality control and design verification will elimate dysfunctional crap entering the market.

All these things are in order with any reliable vendor ... And you can make your own conclusions on the rest.

[Teclast X98 Air 3G] agunghost:
Once I got the same problem with the same message as yours. I can't switch on the tablet.

But then after several minute of charging, It can be switched on again.

(I remember that I've just played some game and fallen a sleep.)

So, It could be the tablet need to be charged. It's running out of battery.

However, there could be another possibilities because (for me) this tablet is really "strange".

I look into Disk Management (while in windows) and there are too many small partition that I never see it before or I could imagine.

Tablet Screen Turned White

The screen on my tablet C6J6 that I received a few weeks ago suddenly turned white. Actually it was already showing signs of a fault developing. Sometimes the image will be a bit blurry but it always turned normal after a while of using it. But yesterday when I turned it on, the screen just remained white, almost like an inverted image but I can hardly see anything.

I read somewhere that it could be due to some loose connection of the boards touching each other. Can anyone advise me if this can be repaired and how can I safely open the tablet? Thank you very much!

Thanks to the advice on this thread I finally managed to root my X98 Air 3G. I see that there's an OTA update from Teclast and my question is if I will lose root if I do run the update? I really don't want to re-root...:)

Thanks!

Status update on game freezing fix.

Today, our boss told the apk will come soonner than our expectation, maybe in half a month. And it will reduce the

power dissipation to balance and solve the freezes. But it may not support all 3D games since every game is different requirements in resolution, storage, RAM. Just like iphone4 is hard to support IOS7 frequently. But please do not worry, most games will work. Let's wait patiently. :)

From Shenzhen OKQI Electronics Mall

Eagerly waiting for the vital clue to the freeze mystery - The BIOS
[MENTION=4769571]Sh1m3oN[/MENTION] We are waiting. Note the instructions given above.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] SUMMERBREEZE:
i just dont understand, how just an .apk file will solve the problem? it seems mostly a voltage issue and maybe a kernel and bios.. and what about windows? some people see freezes also in windows... and .apk is not a windows application file?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mnitstanley:
The BIOS of C9J8 shall throw some light to this mystery. It could be a Windows Binary to patch BIOS.

Otherwise it has to be an OTA update. They can't do much with an APK on unrooted devices. Especially the HW control Algorithms.

But what if it is a HW issue ? We all shall be doomed then :(

Can't support all 3D games ... and wait for another month ?:crying:

latest update failed!

My tablet is rooted, I saw the notification of the latest update, I tried to apply the update using the pre-loaded Teclast app and failed, the last line on the boot up screen says "update fail with status 1". Any one else has this problem? how to fix it? and how does the latest update improve the tablet? thanks.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mnitstanley:
Can someone try Root cloak(Xposed module) to fix this issue ?

I would suggest someone familiar with flashing roms to try it because there are instances when xposed leads to bootloop and since we have no custom recovery for Teclast, we can't disable it. So this may be risky to data.

Has anyone successfully installed xposed on x98 air ? If yes then it may be safe for anyone to try root cloak.

Hi,

download this :

You must be under Android and you have installed all driver to work with your pc because.

Connect tablet to pc and then there is already a batch file that make backup and send to your folder (in your pc) the bios.

After this, compress it and share ;) Thanks

P.S. : If you can, make a snapshot of your first page in your bios.

I just ordered my X10hd yesterday from Anna by sweden post. So i´m with Hendrickson, keeping my fingers crossed....
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mnitstanley:
All of them are the same BIOS.

It is kind of fishy when Teclast takes so much time to fix this issue when they already have an identical device with no issues.

Certainly looks like a bad SoC due to lack of proper quality checks.

Bad news guys. Even with a 'APK' fix, it is going to be a crippled system.

Better luck next time.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] ImJamIN:
No, it's the same of C9J7 (it's the last one t03). So the problem's solution could be in your android version.

Have you root ? If so, please go to /etc and take a look at thermal_throttling files (there are two files). Just for curiosity.

Thanks
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] SUMMERBREEZE:
yes, you will run it in your PC.. be sure your tablet recognized by PC well.. and then run the bat file.. the rest is up to you, follow the things you see on your screen..
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] ImJamIN:
I hope that it isn't' so. Bad SoC ? But I have seen that Soc have the same revision so, or Teclast have implemented a REAL dissipation or have optimized Android
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] SUMMERBREEZE:
if the bios exactly same with C8J7 and C9J7, then i am afraid that nothing changed positively. The only thing we are sure, [MENTION=4769571]Sh1m3oN[/MENTION] has got C9J8 and he doesnt have 3D issues.. but this is the only example and we can not be relaying on this, he can be just lucky.. (like some C6J6 and C8J7 owners..)

I am really bored of this and almost fed up.. and tomorrow there is a possibility to buy the dual boot version for 30 usd less but stll things are not clear.. a hard situation to be in :mad:
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mnitstanley:
Any special drivers to be installed ? ToolBox supports Win 8.1 ?

Let us be realistic here. The defect is physical on the SoC or on some other circuit component leading to overheating due to heat buildup.

Some members here also added some copper pads to dissipate heat and ended up getting a better stable experience.

And let us not forget, the issue is there in Windows also which suggests that the fault is beyond OS.

A bad batch of tablet is always around the corner when you don't put proper consistent quality checking procedures.

Lets move-on.

Problems C9J7 with WiFi under Win 8.1

Hello,

I realized install Windows 8.1 Pro on my Teclast X98 C9J7. I injected drivers for Teclast X98 into install.wim, removed Bing appx and install whole new OS.

Now I have problems with Wifi. When I am using Wifi, it is show "Connected". But on my Tethering hotspot show "Connected/Disconnected/Connected/Disconnected" still loop. I tried to install WiFi patch for C9J7 Windows (name is Dynamic ....), problem still persists, but it is better now then before.

Do somebody have any solution for this ?

For info only: what is size of original C9J7 partition with Windows 8.1 with Bing ? I am disappointed, how device works with free space, because I hade 10.3 GB free after installing systems, but after finishing Windows Updates it is only about 7 GB free space. Office 2013 Pro is installed on SD card.

Thanks

Anybody found any cases that woek well with the x98? Anybody tested the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Folio for Ipad air?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Hendrickson:
The Core M will be great, i5 4300U power but fanless, I don't imagine them being cheaper than $500 which is a big risk if you have problems. I'm also a bit suspicious of this OKQI $199 dual boot sale. It seems like Teclast gave OKQI a large batch for cheaper than normal, which makes me think are they are just clearing out the all fault soc X98 air 3g's for cheap? They will run fine until you game on them that is. Just look at how many 11.11 sale X98 Air's that were faulty....

Great :good: Welcome to the X10HD club I'll have mine in a few hours. I have to go out later so hopefully I will have time for an unboxing vid and first impressions. If not this evening.

I would say not good at all, at 100% brightness the screen in direct sunlight is very hard to make out. Also it varies from unit to unit a little, my first X98 Air 3G had a crazy bright screen. My current one is normal brightness, which is still good.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] smartchip:
The Logitech ones rely on magnets to hold the unit upright when open, no magnets in our Teclast (although it can be modded). Especially the ones with keyboard, too "slippery".

Try one without the keyboard. Works well for me and all ports and buttons are accessible. Except the camera is on the wrong side [emoji23]

[Teclast X98 Air 3G] zooster:
Guys the issue is probably hw. Pheraps they will release a software workaround to circumvent the problem, maybe not cost free in terms of performances (like turbo mode off).

Instead investigating on the software I would better dig into hw changes applied to C9J8.

Why don't we compare internals of C9J7 and C9J8?

[MENTION=4769571]Sh1m3oN[/MENTION] can you open your tablet and take pictures of internals with macro focus? Maybe they applied new heat dissipation or something similar.

Earlier photos had an aluminum shield over the SOC and memory, but not quite enough thermal transfer pads and lacks contact with the back cover.

In typical Chinese fashion, they simply slapped a big thermal transfer pad over the chips in later versions, although I'm not sure the silicone pad had enough contact with the back cover.

I'm interested to see if they have improved the interior thermal management.

[Teclast X98 Air 3G] BigBoppa:
Always remember that these thermal pads have not the best thermal conductivity. They are better than air, not because they are so good but because air is a good thermal isolator! Next in line is thermal grease, a little better than pads. Best would be metal with good (thin grease) contact, so a alumina or copper plate to contact the intel soc with the alumina backplate should be best and worth a try.
