So your Flash tool v3 can make a BIOS backup, does it fix the BIOS too? If not is it possible to add such a feature in the next update?

Fixed BIOS 2.05c

Hi [MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION],

in my google drive is a "fixed" BIOS with the hex codes FFFF in address 4000. So it should be possible to flash it with all our devices. Can anyone with a programmer test it and let us know that it's allright or not?

I have no programmer so it is not testet!!

Could someone upload the bios file for x98 air 3g 64gig (C9J6), please? I'm not planning to use Windows so your Windows product key is safe (I'll hexedit it out anyways). I've tried pretty every bios I could find but none of them has worked so far (had to use an usb flasher since the tablet won't turn on).

Good news then!:victory:

But who is working on that Lollipop cameras bug, by the way?:confused:

And is the solution a BIOS update or a ROM update?:p
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] deepmenace:
hmmm..

trying to install v7 mirek. all previous versions have installed instantly - ran the .bat - chose the install method and it just worked.

with this one i am stuck on <waiting for device> - i've tried 4 different usb cables - different usb ports - now i've tried 2 different PCS ( laptop + desktop )

still its stuck on {waiting for device}

any ideas?

SOLVED : my fault - the tablet was booted in android mode - last time i did a rom upgrade it gave me the option to reboot in fastboot - had to do it manually in this one! oops

Hey,

its stuck there for five minutes or so now. Any advice for me?

You'll need to install the tools first and the start the bat file, depending on what ROM you are trying to flash.

[MENTION=2198172]mirek190[/MENTION], do you have any suggestions on my first step in preparing a baytrail android tablet to be converted to Windows. I'm asking because I'm working with a tablet this hasn't been done on yet so since I'm stepping into uncharted territory I'm not sure where to start, in researching various devices the conversion has been done on I'm assuming I need do some sort of partition setup before I start. I'll need a pretty small version of windows as the tablet is only 8GB internal.

I've got UEFI BIOS and some research shows that 32 bit OS won't boot UEFI?(unclear on that).

I've read guides for other devices but I'm unsure of what I need to do that isn't done in the guides or what I don't need to do that is done in the guides I've read. These tablets are all different which leads me to believe my process may be a little different.

Any ideas for a first step in preparing the device itself before starting? I've got the manufactures flash tool, I don't think my BIOS is updatable and the kinds of files I see in other guides do not exist for my tablet. I'm sure I've got to do more than just make a bootable USB and install windows. My problem is I don't know what processes in other guides are just for those devices and not for mine, I don't want to try a tool or process that isn't for me.

Edit: it seems that I can't alter the boot priority, no matter what I select it will not let me change the order.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Lordof9:
EDIT: Okay, sry i just have to read what the Flash tool wants me to do...

Successfully flashed 2.05b, 2.02 and again 2.05b... Had hope to get rid of this super long boot up my X98 has... no success. Still takes over 1 Minute from power up to the Dual Boot OS screen, super annoying.

I am wondering whats wrong with my divice. Its not the BIOS and not the Android part...

btw. the Flash Tool still says "FLASHER - v2.7" in the Bios tools menue. :)
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] hbeil:
Is that a dual boot tablet? If so, I found flashing the bios much easier from the windows side. Just start windows and execute the flasher file.

If the tablet stays in the dnx mode, then the adb drivers are not installed correctly, there are two files to install and they have to match!

It happen to me too and after re-installing the drivers submitted by the mirek ROMs, the tablet was recognized and the process started.

I was wondering if someone could advise the best course of action. I have the x98 3g 32gb with win10 (C: drive is about 13gb) and Mirek's Lollipop v5.

I would like to update to Mireks Lollipop v7 AND I would like to get more space for Win10 since now I can't even run the update on win10 because i don't have enough space on C:.

So do I have to install everything from zero with new partitions or is there an easier way?

Dear Spectator_0o,

I hope your issue is solved by now. If not, or for others of similar problem

I had the same problem when I tried to install Manufacturing Flash Tool in my system - Windows 10 pro 64 bit OS ... here is how I solved.

Uninstall any previous drivers.

Install "iSocUSB-Driver-Setup-1.2.0" first.

Then install "IntelAndroidDrvSetup1.5.0".

Finally run "ManufacturingFlashTool_Setup_6.0.43".

Note: Version numbers may change to latest

This order should work in most cases!

!!!One important thing: the saved original BIOS always be on the pendrive which you flashing BIOS in UEFI shell from!!!

In case of trouble, it can be flashed back, BUT before you do anyathing, have to change the 400Dh and 400Eh address datas from FEh to FFf !!!!!!!! After this copy the changed-fixed BIOS onto the pendrive.

Please help me. I do something wrong by trying installing a rom and when I open the tablet it's getting in Shell mode! What to do????? :(
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Mikha777:
Good Question ! ;)

When you flash a Firmware/Bios and the flash fail it's because some byte did not find their way from the Bios file through the Firmware Chip, it can be because of a cable of lower quality (if cable is involved), because of various programs scripts that run in the background conflict with the flash, because of the temperature of the hardware (Change in voltage) during the procedure, a bad timing with the transfer of the internal data during the procedure... Quality of the USB drive (if USB drive Involved)

So if you retry if the hardware is not faulty and the files are good it will eventually succeed. 90% of the time it work the first time but since the transfer need to be perfect it is bound to sometime fail... There is no integrity check of the data during the transfer of the data from the file to the firmware chip only at the end, that's why it must be perfect. :cowboy:

HELP!! I was installing the MIrek190_Rom v6.1 with the .bat file and i was at DnX mode but I had problems with the installing and i disconnect the usb wire! Anyway now what is the soloution??

I found this : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56172528 at second paragraph

I follow the instructions and i install Mirek190_Rom v7.0 and it's opened in Android but when I restart it goes again to shell mode and I must connect again the keyboard and type exit to get in to android! Also I was notice that he hard disc is 16 GB and not 24 GB! At the last line (second paragraph) it says :

"When go to the android you must change your bios with ifwiupdate and you can flash dualboot bios or new android bios from first post" What is the ifwiupdate ??
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] gthebest:
Well I fix it! It has changed from the bios the 1rst bios boot from OS to EFI Shell and when I started the tablet it was get in EFI Shell. I was changed to OS as 1st boot and now is started normally to android. Also i fixed and the hard disc. I install again a rom with repartition and select the right partition file the "DATA_25_GB_SYSTEM_1_GB_CACHE_100_MB".

Also I want to ask something about the problem I had when I couldn't install the bootable usb key. Should I have to choose, as I install the android rom, the suitable partition file? In the folder 'PARTITION TABLES" which one partition file I must choose so I can install the windows later? There are 18 files into the folder.

And something else : at the link http://justpaste.it/FlashBiosViaUEFI about "How Flash your BIOS via the UEFI shell" I can't easy find my USB drive when I type "map -r". Also when I type "ls FS1:" is says that there is not this commant. Should i write it differently?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Mikha777:
"map -r" is to list all available devices it could be any of those devices...

When you think you found the USB drive to confirm it you list the content of the device with:

"ls DeviceName:"

If DeviceName is FS1 you will write at the prompt:

"ls FS1:"

Also it is an "L" like Love not I like Ice ;)

It says :

"3D GAMES FREEZES FIX (thanks to Akitoyo and acc007)

You can download the patch from here: patch for 3D games freezes

Then follow these steps:

1. Copy the update.zip to the root path of internal storage

2. Click OTA icon, then choose local update

3. Choose update.zip file then apply it, system will reboot automatically

4. There will be a new icon "Fastmode" on the desktop, choose it before launching large 3D games.

You must click it again if you reboot the tablet then play 3D games

If you haven't Teclast OTA app you can download it from here: Teclast update tool

If you want can find the apk attached to this post (fastmode.apk).

If you don't want use apk, use adb shell and then su to become root.Then launch these commands:

Code:

echo 400 >/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/gt_min_freq_mhz

echo 400 >/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/gt_max_freq_mhz

If you want a persistent fix, also after reboot you can create new file install-recovery-2.sh file and put it in ./etc folder with these istructions:

Code:

#!/system/bin/sh

echo 400 >/sys/class/drm/card0/gt_min_freq_mhz

echo 400 >/sys/class/drm/card0/gt_max_freq_mhz

Remember remount /system as rw and chmod this neely created file to 755. You can then execute it or restart to have it automatically started."

The adb shell is an application running from the pc?

Teclast do provide 1 year warranty here so I will not use custom ROM as to void the warranty.

In the photos you can see the bios settings before and after. Does anyone knows what happen?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Mikha777:
Sorry for the late reply I did not see my private message...

I was thinking you had the Air II not the Air 3... it can explain some problem we have ;)

So I've done more research about the Air III...

Many users have converted it to Windows or even Dual Installation so it should not be a problem to do.

Also I use only Windows on my own X98 air II so for android I don't really know about it beside basic things but I know a lot about the X98 itself. :angel:

The problem you have is just that you don't seem able to boot from a USB drive & now that I understand that you have an Air III not the 2 I can help you better.

From my research some users seem to try to use the same Firmware as the Air II but some of them experience various problems booting with those firmware (bios). I've see that the firmware that have been successful for booting Windows are made especially for the Air III.

One Firmware that seem to be very successful has the version 1.00 so I'm pretty sure that the firmware 2.05 is what make booting from USB drive a problem.

Flash the firmware with UEFI and let me know after you should be able to boot from a USB drive.

http://sharetext.net/Wsb.html but use this firmware for flashing --->

Here's a link to the archive with the firmware 1.00

for the Air III that should boot Windows:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/tg8zrj2uykz8j1q/update_android.rar

Also the best way to make a clean install for Windows is to use the ISO file Windows 10 Home 32bit directly from Microsoft and to add the missing drivers after the installation. :cowboy:

For the link for the WinPe look at the bottom of this message in my signature, I've put link to various Guides/Tutorials and there is one involving WinPE it's very useful, there is even one tutorial about how to flash your Firmware from an UEFI prompt :fingers-crossed:
