[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Very misleading info on their website then hope they update it....
[Android General] corduroy27:
Ohhh yes it is!!! Most times. That's why I said...

I'm sorry to learn that they haven't 64GB version in Stock.

Please inform us if you have any news about it...
[Android General] suspect008:
This is very confusing, if they dont have stocks, why would they list as there is adequate stock!! its still listed as that. has the operator lied to me? Im wondering. if any of you have the time, can you try contacting them to ask that do they have 64GB or not. Im also giving a second try. and they have not replied to my email yet.

update:

I ve contacted geekbuying again and this time a guy named ryan told me that, they do not have stock of 64GB however their warehouse does not acknowledge anything about 64GB version being stopped production. he said new stocks will be back by 4-6 days and to know for sure ask me to get into the live chat again on friday :(
[Android General] corduroy27:
Well, I think the truth is on Chat...

Supposed that they have "Real time" info when we do a conversation there. That's why I prefer it.

If the "Out of stock" status for 64GB version is true, it seams logic to me that many people who want this version, finally ordered from them.

May the "sold out" was somehow sudden and they have increased number of orders!!!

So, maybe they wait to see if there are canceled orders first and then update their page. I don't know...

For sure it's not a good idea to do this on purpose...

I think this is good news... :)

I hope everything will go well and you'll be able to acquire. ;)
[Android General] corduroy27:

[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Awesome Thanks?.........but be careful this is the same seller on aliexpress with the name double king industry co ltd and listed only 32gb over there....few of them even said in feed back that seller advertised one and sent other model completely like listed teclast x90hd 8.9" but sent teclast x80h 8" model...be careful.......So when are you gonna get yours?????
[Android General] corduroy27:
Well, I don't know about that, sorry.

I just see a guy from a Greek forum myphone.gr bought from them and I checked their page for availability...

I bought it from geekbuying (Shipping via Netherland Post) at 9 April. They send it at 14 April.

Right now is on the way from Netherland to Greece. I believe in the end of next week I'll have it, if everything goes well of course...
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Hi ils how are you? And hows the tab treating you?? Just wanted to know the steps for restore factory default....and does this procedure even restore windows to factory default???? Thank you

Regards,

Rakesh
[Android General] ils:
I used the Factory Data Reset in Android setting (in Backup and Reset)

and it only reset the Android part

I haven't explore more about this tab but from what I read in Chinese guide (using Google Translate), we can reinstall Windows partition like any other PC by accessing the BIOS and boot to USB with Windows installation file inside. or we can just copy the ROM we (can) Download from the link in my previous post (this ROM may contain both WIN and Android part too)

I also found a small problem with WiFi in Android

in my office using Cisco WiFi Access Point the connections is stable

but in my house where I use cheapest AP from each brand (TP Link, Dlink) , the connections sometimes not working (WiFi still connected but no data transfered, I need to disconnect and reconnect the WiFi)

the problem isn't happening in my phone, so I assume something wrong with the tablet

but maybe I'll try to buy better AP before blaming the tablet entirely :)

overall I'm still pleased with this tablet

although since I'm regularly playing games in Android with this tablet,

the CPU could use a better cooling :) (so far I got max 69C while playing FF Record Keeper)
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Thank you Ils......I saw a recovery partition of around 3.7gb and was wondering how to access that recovery option may be connect keyboard and use function keys like a conventional laptop to get into recovery mode.....

Even I was facing few minor issues under windows but all are software related like wifi in limited access even though other devices were connected (dlink 150 router) so I just deleted the access point and created again now no issues....at times when am charging under windows the tab simply crashes am thinking again OS issue.......

Clock resets if I switch OS from windows to android and back to windows..... haven't used it a lot under android but under windows while charging and browsing via internet explorer the temps are around 68c (summer here :p)haven't played any games but will try and report back...

Not able to navigate in boot menu via usb mouse think have to try with a keyboard

Also am trying to figure out how to configure the Q2S utility like OP suggested but think the seller disabled the option while setting language for me...
[Android General] suspect008:
Im little skeptical about DHgate site, of course i have no buying experience with them. but just Ive heard many complains about their suppliers specially regarding warranty claims. and here also rakesh said that its the same seller on aliexpress too. however I prefer buying 32GB version from respected aliexpress or geekbuying because of just in case of warranty or any other issues. but thank you for the info.

and glad to hear everyones having good time with this. as for the wifi issue, can we try newer or older driver? if it went more wrong, it can always be rollback right
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Hey buddy just confirmed with my seller on aliexpress SC Tech that chuwi has discontinued V89 version and released Vi10 which has full usb ports 2 and a hdmi its 10.6" 16:9 tab 1366x768 8000mah battery 32gb for now and powerful intel z3736 boost 2.16ghz priced lower than v89. Was wondering why couldn't have they given full usb, hdmi and powerfill processor with v89 its the perfect size still its a beauty.....
[Android General] suspect008:
God...seems i got to settle down with 32gb version or wait a little more to see what will be released. these things are meant to be tablets. A HANDHELD DEVICE!!!! how would someone watch a movie on the go holding a device weigh more than 500 600g :( and most of these tabs comes without a 3g connection. here for asian countries its a deal breaker. but with full usb ports I guess it wont matter much, but still its worth while on the go. I do not care about hdmi,full usb newer processor only which is more clockspeed and battery. what I more concerned is screen size, 3g connection and overall better software.
[Android General] ils:
well my WiFi problem in Android seems gone now

I flash my cheap router using latest OpenWRT and it stable now

so it's definitely problem with the router or compatibility between this tablet with the default firmware

I'm just glad I didn't have to buy new router :)

32GB definitely enough for "basic" Windows and Android app

I mostly install Windows app on MicroSD and prefer portable version of each app I use (TeamViewer, VNC, etc)
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Update: if you want to play games under windows you need to change few settings under intel graphic properties for maximum performance.... under 3d options select performance (defaulted to balance) similarly under power options disable display power saving (defaulted to enable and maximum battery saving) with these settings expect 20-30 fps improvement under native resolution.....wish there was max performance setting for processor aswell under power options...think have to use regedit to enable those settings... disabled by default for tabs...

This following trick is universal and can be used with any tablet or phone.....

If you want to connect a portable 2.5" external hard drive you need extra power as the tabs or phones micro usb is not able to provide enough power that is 5V DC and minimum 800ma for this you need a usb y cable see attached picture and a usb charger with 5V DC and anything above 800ma rating the one supplied with Chuwi V89 has 5V DC and 2A rating which can be comfortably used. Now connect the y cable which is for power to the charger and the data cable to the otg cable and the hard drive will be detected. For the hard drive to be detected in android format the hard drive to fat32 under windows you can use any format like ntfs....under fat32 few files have size restrictions....so take care... if the y cable is small get a male to female usb cable for about a dollar and you can extend the y cable. I have tested this method with both my 200gb and 1tb sata hard drives in an usb 2.0 enclosing with y cable....as I said this is a perfect laptop replacement......:):):)

Wi-Fi even mine solved after I just deleted my Ap and created new one....
[Android General] zk9:
can anyone confirm, that GPS setting in bios is set to disable? altough in windows, with GNSS Data Interface show me the GPS is on.

i would like to set this tablet as GPS with Garmin Mobile PC. but still no luck.
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Yes GPS in bios is disabled, but if I remember correctly this setting is classified under windows boot, and I thought that this has to do something with devices/drivers being loaded during boot....I might be wrong though. Also USB on the go is disabled....not sure whats that for....I really don't wanna take risk and change them enable as this is the only computing device that I have at the moment..... if you are adventurous enough might try to change the settings and let us know the effects maybe:):):) also do you or any one know how to get back Q2S configuration utility back??? Think the seller muted the utility... one nagging problem that I have is when go from windows to android and back to windows n when on charge my tab crashes.....any help in this regard would be appreciated....

Thank you...
[Android General] zk9:
Tanks for the response, i tried to change the GPS setting but it grey out. the only option i could change in Boot Configuration menu just Num lock option... the otg option for the Android... but since my v89 single os and in windows the flashdisk works fine.

about the q2s could you look in program files , may be the muted option just unpin the program from task bar. some program usually save saome .ini file as their setting i.e. VLC . or some registry value i.e IDM. soory if that not helped you..
[Android General] suspect008:
hello everyone,

at the moment,as I cant find anywhere a 64gb ones. so after some considerations I decided to wait but now after seeing this my cousin wanted a one. she wanted a 10inch tab so I suggested her Chuwi V10HD. can be bought for 180$ 32GB version. seems a good deal and after seeing everyone is happy with v89 I hope v10 would be in same quality. theres no to be seen using a one. so I ll be first to give thoughts :D but got to wait till aliexpress seller fetch it. they asked for 10days but not asked me to pay. :)
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Man didn't realize Chuwi V10HD is sooo cheap(maybe stock clearance price) else would have gone for that....black I love black.....but hey Chuwi V89 awesome aswell can get all my work done on it....con of V10HD is both the speakers are located on one side unlike Chuwi V89 which has speakers located on either side when held in landscape mode...true stereo I guess but most of the time am on headsets....let us know the device is......I think Chuwi overall has better QC than any other China brand of the same tire......so go ahead and place the order....I think SC TECH have that in stock...else try honesty team...
[Android General] suspect008:
yep compared with v89, that was the only downside I found, but I dont think these girls mind wheres the sound coming from unless theres no sound hehe:D

I went for seven eleven store in aliexpress , except for sichuang tech(they said it will be available by 20th may) these guys had the lowest price. wihout case its 173$ shipped. they asked for 10 days. Some store called CBT(HK) Ltd has it in stock for same price but their recent sales have negative feedback. but its mostly for delay shipping or no shipping. so I got suspicious and decided to wait. because when all other has no stock, they have it suddenly.

PS:I dont get any results from SC tech or honesty team. I think i have mentioned before that it seems ali is filtering results. I serached the store name on search bar still no result.
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Cool buddy you place the order as even V10HD production stopped they are pushing Vi10 .

Search for vi8 and the lowest will be honesty or sc tech then go to their store and see for v10hd

http://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesa...ice_asc&shipCountry=in&SearchText=chuwi+v10hd

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/10-1...C-Intel-Z3735F-Quad-Core-IPS/32215797202.html

Both sc tech different listing.....honesty no stock......
[Android General] suspect008:
yep I know, both v89 and v10 production being stopped. for v89 they clearly told they wont get it again. but v10 they said its possible to get some. is this SC tech means Shenzen Sichuang Technologies? 1st link of yours directed me to search result and 2nd link to sichuang tech. Yep they have the lowest price and they were the ones told me it will be available by 20th may. seven eleven asked for ten days. so I went with them. lets see. and theres not many options I can choose under 200$ which having built in 3g function.
[Android General] ayamgoreng:
obviously V10HD is cheaper because

- FULL HD while V10HD only HD

(on my home country price different between branded baytrail (acer/lenovo) with hd vs fhd is $90)

- 32gb vs 64gb, unless they release V10HD with 64gb.
[Android General] suspect008:
Nop, V10HD is also FHD, same as V89, 1920x1200. 32gb v89 costs 170 shipped where as v10HD is 180. both had 64gb versions earlier but not now. just I have read through 4pda v10hd thread and seems v10hd does not have much community support where as v89 has complete details on how to reinstall activationg 10 point touch etc etc...little confused what should I go for. v10hd seems more bang for buck :D
[Android General] corduroy27:
I have the tablet (CHUWI V89) from Wednesday and I'm really happy with it. :good::)

I will return in coming days for more...

I'm sorry to see that you can't find one!

Well, try here if you want. ;)

It's a known store.
[Android General] suspect008:
Hello everyone,

My hunt for tablet is still on, after some extensive reading, I see that every one of these have some kind of a problem. so here I have chose 4 models with their prices and I hope if you could suggest me what will be the best bang for buck. and aliexpress seven eleven store informed me that v10hd is in stock now.

I could get,

Chuwi v89 32gb - 163$ - which is by far seems best build to suit with some good community support and less of errors except for Cube i6.only thing is my sis prefer a little larger screen size. but yet if this is the best I would go for it.

Chuwi v10HD 32GB - 173$ - Screen size is perfect and good.russian 4pda forum guys rate it as average for sound quality and some are having wifi issue of being disconnected.

Cube i6 32GB - 186$ - as far as reviews goes best built quality tablet of 9.7inchers(compared to Onda v919,Teclast x98), everything seems to be in place.I trust cube QA as well. only downside is grainy screen.I cant seems to get how much this would affect the regular usage. but some reports not all the productions are affected by this. good community support.

Onda v919 and teclast x98 32GB - 190$ - Both devices loved by here in xda. but both have fair share of their issues. dont know how much they got resolved as of time now. just a consideration because good screen size battery 3g and gps.

Im mainly leaning towards Chuwi v10HD and Cube i6 and v89(not much issues affecting usability). if you can share your opinion on what would be best, its much appreciated.

---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:30 PM ----------

I already checked, they have listed it as out of stock for long time.
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
SC tech & Shenzen Sichuang Technologies are one and the same sorry for the mess up with the links. SC tech has two listing for all products if you visit their store you find both the listings. V10hd has lower ppi 224 as opposed to v89's 254 ppi due to its larger screen people say anything above 250ppi is good. If you need bigger screen size then I would suggest v10hd else v89 and between 16:10 vs 4:3 ask your sis what she likes... apple like or 4:3 ratio screen which is good for reading books and browsing or 16:10 which is good for movies and media consumption and overall aswell. One general rule is the less there is community support or threads in a forum the less issues the product has. As you said v10hd and v89 less issues/threads compared to teclast or onda or cube(grainy screen a big no no) any way you are taking a big risk in ordering tech from china which has no tech/warranty support near you so why get a tablet which you know already has issues and have to depend on lottery system to get a good device. I would say stick with chuwi. Overall good tablets with less or no issues. All that I had till now are all software related especially windows. Want help in recovering using recovery partition.

Awesome news buddy do keep us updated. Also did you get Q2S configuration utility in windows like what OP suggested. Just want to know how to get it back. And if any help regarding recovery to factory setting using recovery partition would be highly appreciated. Do keep us updated. Battery is awesome aswell now....one more thing if you guys want only Bluetooth keyboard for this tab official one and no case then its available for $13 free shipping on aliexpress. Sellers are fooling us by selling the keyboard along with case for minimum $27 few others selling it for $57.....
[Android General] corduroy27:
When I opened the tablet first time, (Windows in English US), no Q2S Config Utility with BIOS Bitmap Setting appeared!!!

Maybe the seller disable when checking! I don't know...

I'm looking to find a way to restore.

uncleabubear said:

So I think the solution is in InsydeQ2S folder or in Registry...

We must somehow Disable Mute Enable by changing somewhere [1] that is for Enable to [0] that is for Disable,

but I don't know where exactly to do this change...

I don't think that CHUWI really have an Official keyboard for this tablet anyway. May it's a general one...

But if you want, give as a link about this please. I can't find it in this price at AliExpress.
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Even I think it has something to do with registry entries. Scared to tinker with it....but will try sometime down the line.. any way to recover using recovery partition??? Think that way we can get it back as well. and OP seems to be away from this thread no posts from him.

Edit: Just checked the insyde folder in regedit, there are three entries defaultbitmap, quickconfig, showmsg, but for these entries its not simple 0/1 entries its quite complex forgot how to use binary system....think will have to get back to my books......but easier way will be to recover using recovery partition.....

Am really sorry buddy for not including the link. Here is the link....

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Univ...-Keyboard-for-Android-Windows/1900914621.html

Yes yes chuwi does not manufacture this they source it from OEM and bundle it with the tablet. Have compared this with the one listed along with tablet and its the same. There are few other models at less than $7 but am not sure about the quality or compatibility. This keyboard can be used with android, windows or ios like others. The cover has magnets have to get that individually but that's not possible I think as the cover and keyboard are bundled together.
[Android General] corduroy27:
Sorry, I don't know anything about Recovery Partition in CHUWI V89.

If I find something I'll come back...

Just to be clear. Do you mean a hidden Partition with stuff for Windows only Recovery or for all Dual Boot system?

As for the Bluetooth Keyboard, the USB cable that comes with, it's usefull to enter the BIOS, right?

Is there any other way for it? (to Enter BIOS) :rolleyes:
[Android General] RakeshReddy:
Yes check under windows disk management there is a healthy recovery partition of 3.32gb most probably for dual OS as they cant give recovery for just one OS or maybe they can....not sure am thinking dual OS also there is a dual OS rom available. Am not sure if you can enter bios with cable but its for charging the keyboard. If you want to enter bios you can hold down vol + button while powering (hold power and vol + together) up to enter bios (power and vol - gives another option but havenot been successful with that. I have been conventional usb keyboard to enter bios with esc key and you need keyboard to navigate around in bios. Mouse wont work either.....
[Android General] corduroy27:
Well, if I need a conventional USB keyboard to navigate in BIOS, I don't need a Bluetooth keyboard at all...

I'm OK with the internal touch keyboard of Windows in Split mode.

And you have right. The USB cable must be for charging...

Instead I'm thinking of buying a small Bluetooth mouse like this, to avoid OTG cable ;)
