Model number: VU100

Android version: 4.4.2

Kernel version: 3.4.0+ peterguo@sz205 #1 Tue Jun 3 15:19:44 HKT 2014

Build number: VU100-user 4.4.2 KOT49H eng.peterguo.20140623.202513 release-keys​

At first, I had trouble getting my Windows 7 machine to recognize the device other than a storage device? I ended up have to install some generic usb drivers to get Kingo root to recognize my device.

I used Kingo Root 1.4.1 to root the tablet, and had no problem doing this. It showed up as VU100 model.

I downloaded Rom manager and tried to create a CWM Recovery, but the device was not supported. Something happened at this time, although I don't quite remember. So, I used Kingo Root again, and this time the device showed up as 86v_HD. So at this time I did a little Google search and found this.

That link shows all of the hardware and software parameters for 86v_HD. This made me think that Wildgame Innovations had someone/some company in China to take one tablet and basically restructure it the way they needed it to be. The list shows that the tablet is an Actions Aventura and I, for the life of me, cannot find anything about these tablets!

NOW

Once I figured out that the device was not supported by CWM or TWRP, I decided to create a Nandroid backup (which I have on my desktop).

That night I started messing around with the build.prop trying to get rid of the screenshot/screen record and volume buttons from the bottom taskbar. I never could get it to work. So everything I edited, I undid since I figured out that it didn't help me any. Then I found the screen rotation. This tablet would not lock rotation in portrait mode. So I decided to edit two lines from =0 to =180 (Really should have been 90 :silly: ). Once I rebooted, I got stuck in a bootloop!!!

Before this, I had developer options on, debugging mode was on, and i was able to connect to the device via adb.

Once the bootloop started, I immediately went into recovery and selected wipe data/factory reset. This did not help, I think it made it worse. My computer then did not recognize my tablet as an Android ADB device anymore and windows said there were no drivers for it. ADB states that the device is not authorized.

I only have the stock android system recovery <3e>. I have tried to install a 4.4.4 update via external sd card to no avail.

I have wiped cache partition and media partition and get some sort of error during everything.
