Please send me the link to the rooted Cube T7

Would like the link. I'm just about to buy a new T7 with the root included, that would be a waste of money.
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
Careful on that one, as if they DO add the root in home it may save you a bricking, or the same problem I had with the modem...

DeathByArmadillo,

I just sent email to www.51cube.com (found it in section "contact us") about magnetometer problem.

I advice you to do the same. The more people write them the more chances they will fix it in new firmware.

I still think it is firmware problem. Email is 13410011035@163.com
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
Great idea, I will, and might put in a slight dig on how lollipop would really use the 64 bit architecture...

EDIT : That was a while ago, still no answer, or even an acknowledgement. And Im lurking in a few other threads, but it seems dead as a dodo.

Root

Hi,

No News for Root methods?

I have Sometimes error message in Google Play because the memory is full so I need to M over somes apllication to internal memory. It's strange this method of gestion memory.

The 16go are divided in 2? Internal and phone memory?
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
I am using my T7 at the moment as my main phone, and with the earlier issues I've been really careful, I'd rather not have to buy a third...

Still monitoring a few threads, but nothing really popped up.

As for the partition, yes, only 2Gb for apps, and the rest for general data (not to mention, as unrooted kitkat the SD is pretty useless)
[Device Reviews and Information] biofx80:
Ok it's weird to use memory like that in 2015....

Perhaps if we can root it somedays the sd cards will be useful...

Mine works fine but sometimes it loose Internet connexion and I need to reboot it.

And in Google maps or any GPS it had no compass in it?

I have also a chuwi x3 7', wich works also very good but only in 3g but the manufactory is poor I have a lot of dirt inside the screen... I think a bug can find a way too.....;)

So let's wait for t7 root....
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
Yeah, it's ridiculous. There is a russian rooted rom doing the rounds, that changes the partition table to 4Gb for apps... Some folks on another thread said it was working fine, but it killed my modem (not sure what happened, might have been an IMEI loss), so not quite sold.

Best thing really would be that Riley (of rileyroms) turned his attentions to it (he's alreasy done one on the t9, close platform)

re: Colorfly

Hi Dvalin

I know you were going to give a report on the other phablet you were going to try. Just to let you know that I ended up purchasing the Colorfly G808 like my friend did and it is AMAZING! I have been using it for over a month now and I have had no problems.

There is a company that is selling it less than half the price that I paid for it - http://www.zolday.com/index.php?gOo=goods_details.dwt&goodsid=320&productname=

It is only US$65 (AUD$84)!!! I paid just over AUD$200 for mine!!!

This is what you get for your US$65......

8 inch Colorfly G808 Android 5.1 4G Phablet MTK6735 64bit Quad Core 1.3GHz WXGA IPS Screen 3GB RAM 32GB ROM WiFi GPS Bluetooth 4.0

BTW.....I had NO problem using this as a regular mobile phone here in Australia. Just whacked in a SIM card from Optus and off I went!!! Awesome!!! The one I'm using also picks up 4G no problem!!!

Anyway, just thought that I should let you know.
[Device Reviews and Information] echineon:
Have you purchased from this site? I'm from Aus too but I'm not sure if I wanna go ahead with this mob since there's no review and no first hand experience dealing with them. Dropping 200 on a Huawei X2 is good but whether it rocks up and dealing with getting my money back in case it doesn't is a different story...
[Device Reviews and Information] SoniTheEchidna:
Hi Echineon

Nope, I didn't purchase off that website because I already have mine. However, my friend is purchasing two of them from that website. He told me that he is using NAB to purchase the Colorfly from them just in case it is a dodgy website. He said that he had purchased an item off a dodgy website previously and used NAB and he got his $$$ back with no problem.

I don't know, but it is an amazing price!

Is there any news regarding a the CUBE T7 android upgrade (5.0 or 6.0)?

Might there be a way to completely replace the OS with a stock aindroid 5.0 or 6.0?

(even if it means I will loose the GPS/Phone/. . . functionalilty . . .)

I looked into windows OS or other stock android ROM possibilities but could not find anything.

The cube t7 company seems to keep it's sphincter tightly closed regarding updates for their products.

I really regret getting this tablet, not because the specs but because of not getting upgrades.
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
Sadly not, seems pretty much gave up on it. Which is a shame, cracking piece of kit. Certainly the last cube product I buy.
[Device Reviews and Information] Dvalin21:
I haven't heard anything, and the lack of updates and loyalty to customers is why I won't by from Cube ever again
[Device Reviews and Information] Synman:
The GPS on my T7 recently started acting very flakey so I set out to find a replacement and landed on the Lenovo Tab3. As I was moving things over I was once again faced with the question of enabling boot on charge (or disabling power off charge however you want to look at it).

Anyway, after a little bit of snooping I came across an interesting fastboot setting that did the trick on my Lenovo. On a whim I tried it on my T7 and was successful.

So, with no further ado I present how to enable auto-boot on detection of USB charge (a nice companion for people using this tablet in their car):

fastboot oem off-mode-charge 0

I added a request for a cyanogenmod port here:

https://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/110767-request-port-for-cube-t7-mtk-8752-64bit-soc/

I know it's a hail mary (and late), but it never hurts to ask(?)

Anyway, if more requests are made in that thread then maybe the device could get a cyanogenmod port...
[Device Reviews and Information] Dvalin21:
I for one will request it

---------- Post added at 06:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:37 AM ----------

Another idea is to get those from the other forums to jump on this as well. Maybe it will build steam that way?
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
Put in a request, and yes, it would be nice to get the folk on here to do the same, but I'm not that hopeful, I'd assume that most have moved on. (I know that my poor T7 is in a drawer, with the rest of the tech that didn't quite make it)
[Device Reviews and Information] Dvalin21:
I saw another seven inch phone tablet that might interest you by the way

Teca LTE 840
[Device Reviews and Information] r0nr:
My T7 would not turn on after not being used for several months.

I tried charging it up for 2 hours but it would not turn on. (The device did not gave off any heat when connected to the charger, this lead me to believe that the device was not charging at all).

I think I fixed it.... I opened up the T7 and de-solderd 3 wires and then resoldered them back.

This is done to unfreeze the powerbutton and "blank" the T7 from it's charge settings.

It was a hail mary, but I think it worked.

Created a quick tutorial:

Trouble rooting

I am reflashing my device using the 4G ROM scatterfile and now need to root the device but it keeps failing.

The method I used was first root using Iroot (usb debugging and allow from other sources are checked).

After Iroot is done, I use SuperSume to replace Iroot.

Is there another way (through TWRP?) to root the device?
[Device Reviews and Information] Dazmatic:
If you've used the 1.7 file from needrom, then you simply need to flash the TWRP that was included with the rom package, boot into recovery, flash supersu, restart and load supersu, then it should root from there.

bear in mind however, using the 4gb scatterfile, you need to backup your nvram because I believe it needs to format the flash. That'll erase your nvram and you'll loose your IMEI number and wifi MAC.

I did just that and luckily managed to contact my provider (three UK) to get my imei number back as it wasn't on the box. You can't use any of the prescribed methods either to recover the imei through the engineer mode or the various Maui programs or whatever, doesn't work. Only way to get it to work is to create a new nvram file using your imei number.

You can get the wifi mac to set through the engineer mode though.

Annnnnd we have root. I found on a chinese forum a post about romaster working on t7. I dled it, ran it from pc, and after a bit of a fiddle (google translate via cam as it's all in Chinese ), it dled the database, and then I rooted it (the anchor icon). It does install a SU manager of its own, but so far not been a problem. Ran write to sd, and the main issue with the tab is now gone ...

Sorry just excited as t7 is my daughter's tab, more space would be a god send
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
Sure, can't find the original link, but I uploaded the version that worked. What happened is that after install/first run, I got a window with a phone and an arrow alternating pics, and a dl bar, I believe it's the phones database loading. After that, it tells you to connect, and go through the usual "authorise debug from xxxxxx address", make it permanent (2 screens side by side). After that you get a screen mirroring of your t7 to the left, and tons of icons (clicked on a few, seemed like an app repository and it started sideloading stuff to my phone, about three apps before I found the root program (the installed apps were a straight remove, and after the whole process I ran every reputable AV and nothing poppedup).

The blue round bit with the anchor is the root app you want, click that, and you should have two buttons, one is abort, so fiddle and you should go to a progress bar. Reboot, android is updating, and tadaaaaaa.

Of course, it worked on mine, but the usual provisos apply, if it sets yours on fire don't blame me :P

SPFlashTool trouble

Need help to flash back stock firmware on my cube t7. I am using SPFlashTool v5.1436 and downloaded firmware from needrom, I unpacked everything and opened spflashtool and when I tried to load the scatter file from the dowmloaded firmware, its giving me an error like invalid file or check to make sure the scatter is legal. Can someone help me I have downloaded the 2 firmware on needrom for the cube t7 but both of them are doing the same thing
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
I d/led the 1.3 on needrom a while ago and reflashed it, it did go through the scatter thing without a problem. I'd say re download it, but as it's a RAR it would not decompress if faulty.... Do you see any names in chinese in there? As there was a problem with the scatter if not translated on another ROM. Apart from that, bit stumped

Rooting app

I used iRoot (previously vRoot) to root the Cube T7 without problem.

http://irootdownload.com/

(use "PC" version because the "Android" (apk) version does not work)

iRoot installs its own version of Superuser into the tablet which seems to work just as well as the usual Superuser or SuperSU.

After installating iRoot into Windows, you connect the tablet / phone via USB. The program detects it and then many error messages pops up saying something like "There is no disk in Drive ..." - you just have to keep pressing [Cancel] or [Continue] until it goes away temporarily, and the program will continuem then press some more to continue etc. Eventually you see a green [root] button that you press, then after many "There is no disk ..." error messages which you reemove by pressing [cancel] or [continue] many times, the program will eventually install root. Use something like Root Checker from Google Play store to check root access afterwards. I did not have to reboot the tablet for root to work.

When an app requests root, a message box will pop up. It is mostly in English but make sure you check the small box (with Chinese writing means something like "Remember this in the future") to the bottom left of the message.

After successful installation, I open the Superuser app on the tablet -> Menu (three dot top right) -> Settings to (1) disable Auto-update and (2) check "grant to request the root permission". Just in case the Superuser app sneak installs something without acknowledgement.

iRoot did not install any junk programs into Windows or add any spam extensions to Firefox, IE and Chrome browsers. It only installed something called "Supercleaner" (a RAM cleaner / booster) into the tablet, which can easily be uninstalled.
[Device Reviews and Information] DeathByArmadillo:
You can install super su (make sure you install and allow root perm for it) then uninstall the chinese app, works like a charm afterwards

[Device Reviews and Information] Dvalin21:
So I just received mine in the mail the other day and made an amazing discovery today. When doing a search for network I notice i was able to pick up Verizon 4G. Went the distance to test it out on a Verizon micro sim. It wouldn't register on the network. Of course I didn't try any tweaks or anything like that so I dont know if I could get it to. However, since the phone doesnt have a esn number I would imagine this is why. However, working perfect on T-Mobile 4G LTE Oklahoma City.
