Worst tablet ever. Att can't even get their software updates right. I can't use this as a phone because the stupid number sync software keep giving an error and no one at att knows how to fix it. I've tried different dialers and freezing them. Nothing works. Now I have com.android.phone is not responding and their is no firmware download anywhere to fix it. Now I have to factory reset the whole damn tablet lol. I'm going to sell the and get a Sprint unlocked version. What a shame. This tablet had potential too

You can Google "replace Kingroot with supersu". There is a 4 step method for replacing the temp Kingroot with chainfires SuperSu. Even if bootloader is locked. Just found one of these in Facebook marketplace for $50.

I think this tablet sucks, too. AT&T hoodwinked me into getting this thing, and now I'm stuck with it for 2 years. It's slow and choppy--I'd rather have an iPad. My "Next" contract is just about up, and I can't wait to dump their ass for another carrier.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab E  Questions & Answers] zerenia:
Agree. Hoodwink is exactly what they did. This tablet is SLOW and the bloatware is chewing up RAM. I'm about to dump it for something else. Was hoping to be able to root it so I could kill off some of the bloat, but no joy....

Hi, recently I bought a cheap AT&T Tab E. It has only 4GB internal storage instead of 16, weird? The tab is almost useless because it has almost no space for new files/apps. Anyone knows what's wrong with the tab? Thanks

Totally new to rooting in general, and researching isn't going well as I don't have any context/experience yet...and the vocabulary is new. I have (literally just bought a few days ago) this version of the Tab E...and I'm trying to root it so I can use it more effectively as a head unit in my 03 F150. I'm finding out I bought the wrong unit to do this reasonably easily.

Would you mind posting a quick walkthrough of how this works? Install KingRoot and then replace it with Supersu to get the tablet permarooted?

Thanks!

Remember, this is for you replacing "TEMP ROOT", not when a device is permanently rooted! This means being in the position of Kingroot barely getting temporary root that will be lost when device is rebooted!!! It involves using Flashify (by Chainfire as well) and authorizing it's root ability to flash.

[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DuskGolem:
Hello everyone!

First of all I want to tell you guys that I have searched each and every related forum regarding the topic but haven't got any desired info. I have also tried the SuperR Kitchen forum but it says it only supports N developer previews which leaves me suspicious of the fact that it supports 7.1.X Roms:confused:. So my question is, has any one successfully deodexed the latest firmware 32.4.A.0.160 on xperia z5 premium series? If yes, please tell me the method and tools used for the purpose. A tutorial would be preferred:p:p

[MENTION=8454813]fehung[/MENTION], brother the FULMICS DEODEXER is not working on the latest firmware on xperia z5 premium (atleast not for me):crying:. I would suggest you to use "BATCHAPKTOOL v3.6.6". I have succesfully deodexed the firmware and am using it for over 3 weeks or so without any problems. And i would like to suggest you to not sign the deodexed apks since you have just repackaged the apks by deodexing and haven't added or modified any thing which would otherwise require signing. I am not using any SuperuserMod of any kind to run the deodexed firmware without signing. Just deodex and zipaling and flash to your device.

Worked like a charm for me....

P.S: if you need a tutorial just reply and i will post it here or probably make another thread and post the link. :o

I recently purchased a kaiser (it isn't here yet). I've been searching all over the internet for information on the Kaiser that should help with the video driver issues. Here is what I found:

The die shots of the MSM6260 and the MSM7500 look identical, which implies that the MSM7500 does not include ATI Imageon technology in the same die. I could not find a decent die shot of the MSM7200, but I suspect it is similar to the MSM6260 and the MSM7500. This means that the video acceleration hardware is a separate chip on the same PCB as the MSM7200 processor. This theory is supported by an image of a dismantled HTC Trinity and a dismantled Hermes. This also means that hacking drivers together from another functional device with similar hardware should be possible.

The question now is: Does the Kaiser include an ATI Imageon Processor? According to many PDF documents it does, but which Imageon processor? I tried to find a picture of the internals of the Kaiser and failed. I really don't want to dismantle my new Kaiser (too expensive me to replace), but perhaps somebody here with a toast Kaiser can dismantle theirs and post pictures. If we find out exactly what Imageon chip is being used we can find drivers for it (this method of finding drivers works in both Windows and Linux). It only makes sense that ATI has drivers for each of their chips, it's just a matter of us getting them.

I've attached everything I've found to this message (in the event that documents suddenly disappear again).

Also, According to this post it appears that HTC is actually working on some drivers, maybe:

There is NO ATI chip on kaiser. It is a well known fact from the kaiser motherboard pictures

and confirmed by HTC. Get a better phone (himalaya?) if you need hardware video acceleration ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fusi:
afaik its ondie inside the main proc
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dinominant:
I've looked at the PDF (the one that mods the screen) and she did not photograph the actual IC's under the shielding like the person who dismantled the Hermes.

It doesn't make any sense that ATI would give Qualcomm their Imageon schematics so Qualcomm can fabricate a processor with on-die video acceloration hardware. What does make sense is that Qualcomm builds the MSM7200 so it can interface with an Imageon chip (this makes their processor modular, and more appealing) and HTC simply connects them with the PCB (motherboard).

If the Kaiser does not have an ATI Imageon chip on the PCB right next to the MSM7200 then it has no hardware acceleration and it will *never* perform better then the Hermes, with or without drivers. Even the Hermes had an Imageon chip. If you have pictures proving this then please post them because that would mean HTC will never release Imageon drivers.

Here you can see the MSM6260 is identical to the MSM7500, which would mean the MSM7200 is also the same.

And here is a dismantled Hermes, with a dedicated descrete Imageon processor:

The Kaiser should have a descrete ATI Imageon chip on the same board right next to the Qualcomm MSM7200 chip. If it doesn't then there is no chance of fixing the video issues. If it does, then the first step is to figure out which Imageon chip it has.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NuShrike:
Why would Qualcomm rebuild the same chip in 90nm after already going 65nm? That's a loss of power-efficiency, die space, etc unless they added other things on such as ram, or extra circuitry. Something is missing from in those pictures.

edit: do see a Xilinx chip.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dinominant:
Possibly because of power consumption. AMD was having huge power issues on the 65nm process last year (their 90nm parts scaled/overclocked better than their 65nm parts) and I bet Qualcomm was too. These are mobile chips and power consumption would be a big concern. Then again It could just be a typo or something else altogether.

Those are the exact pictures I got from the PDF documents on the Semiconductor Insight website (I had to sign up to get some of those documents -- signing up is free).

According to this article, Qualcomm is a fabless chip producer, so perhaps they just contracted a foundry with 90nm fabs for less money & less power consumption.

Should we be discouraged that there's no ATI chip in on the Kaiser board?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Hornet331:
i think you guys miss the fact, that the MSM7xxx is a highly integrated SoC.

The graphic core should be integrated on the die itself, so there will be no discreet graphicchip visible.

Infact it could be possible that the graphic core is on board of the die, but its just physicaly disabled, just like intel does with its cpus, disableing parts of the 2nd lvl cache or even one core of its dualcores.

Theres no way you can visually identify if the graphic core works or not (well when you have a electron microscope you could. :p )
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dinominant:
The Die shot of the MSM7500 is identical to the MSM6260 though and the MSM6260 does not have an integrated Imageon processor, it's a discrete chip on the motherboard. So either the MSM7xxx series has integrated Imageon technology (and so does the MSM6260 in addition the one included on the motherboard) or both require a discrete Imageon chip.

I can't see ATI handing over their Imageon schematics to Qualcomm so they can integrate it into their chips, then not use the integrated one in the MSM6260 and add an additional discrete Imageon chip and use that one instead.

It looks as though the Kaiser does not have Imageon technology at all (unless it's on the other side of that motherboard).

sorry but im now highly suspicious of dinominant - is he a htc imposter trying to cull the uprising for drivers from the inside by claiming its a moot request? (this is the only thread he has posted in since he has joined this forum - note post count)

gogo paranoid delusionals

p.s im fairly certain its ondie - its SoC - lots of different bits and peices all stuck together on one die - from many different companies (shock horror just imagine the potential plagarism!!!)! (before qualcomm removed the chips schematics off their webshite, there were pdf's on there clearly showing ati hardware was there - ive got a copy of the pdf's at home somewhere)

lies lies and htc spies

spot on m8 - do my eyes deceive me or does that say 'integrated ati 2d/3d hardware' - im not sure let me get my glasses...

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
Well, I'm standing ground I say its inside the big qualcomm chip.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gilsas:
Hi,

The diagram clearly shows that 2D/3D processing is hosted onto the same chip, the other chips in the chipset are there mostly for RF (radio frequency) functionnalities that can be harldy integrated together with processing due to technology reasons (digital processing is mostly CMOS whereas RF performs better in other technologies). Look closely at it, you'll see that almost everything on the MSM7200 relates to digital processing + converters whereas analog filters, amplifiers etc. are pushed to the 3 others chips.

As for the schematics story, mind that most of the microelectronics business is handled in the same manner: those additionnal cores (named IPs for Intellectual Property) are just bought from other vendors like ARM which provides the ARM11 & ARM9 processor. This is the only way such chips can be designed in reasonable time (it's called IP reuse) Then comes of course licensing fees, etc, etc. It's likely HTC has not gone for 2D/3D acceleration (and paid less) and therefore hardware is there but not the drivers. It then remains to be seen whether the hardware is physically disabled (the firmware can also do that) or that's just a lack of drivers...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] btbeeston:
The MSM7200 chipset datasheet quite clearly indicates that the part has dedicated hardware for 3d acceleration (although it doesn't specify the ATI part).

Blazing fast 3D graphics rivaling the best dedicated handheld gaming devices

• Advanced 2D/3D graphics support with up to 4 million 3D triangles

per second, and 133 million 3D textured pixels per second fill rate

• Q3Dimension™ rendering engine with OpenGL® ES-compliant 3D graphics

• Supported by leading third-party game titles

• Dedicated hardware accelerating the entire 3D rendering process

• Up to Video Graphics Array (VGA) resolution​

The only document I have seen that actually mentions the ATI part is the Brew 2007 Conference presentation linked to earlier in this thread. Is it possible that the MSM7200 has a different acceleration platform and therefore HTC's comment saying the devices "do not use ATi's Imageon video acceleration hardware" would be true (even if they meant 'have' not 'use').
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NuShrike:
I think you've missed the fact that the 6260 has built-in ARM-DSP3D hardware. Arguing your line, that implies the 7x00 has something similiar and we still need a driver.

If you still argue it's non-integrated and separate graphics chip is needed, then where's the ARM11 core? We know the 6260 is ARM9 and we know the 7x00 is asymmetric-core ARM9+ARM11 so where's the ARM11 logic circuits? Are we missing a discrete ARM11 chip? I think this breaks everything down as your die pictures are wrong, or missing a lot.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fusi:
youre first post on this glorious forum is to cast doubt? are you a spy too?

the msm7200 uses ati imageon hardware, it is crystal clear, no amount of confusing ramble from spies is going to change that fact

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] btbeeston:
Your first response to a first post is to accuse me of being a spy! Nice welcome, and I was beginning to wonder why I hadn't posted anything before!

No I have been around these forums reading for a couple of months, just never had anything to post before. Of course there is doubt, I have not seen any actual proof that the MSM7200 has the ATi hardware. I have been in the electronics industry long enough (I am an embedded software developer) to know that what is said in a conference presentation about a product doesn't always mean it actually ends up being in the final hardware, or variants of that hardware are not sometimes made that use different IP. I was just questioning where this proof is!

Most things I have seen points to there being hardware acceleration on the device, but little points towards it actually being the ATi Imageon part.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fusi:
heheh ok you might not be a spy :p on teh imageon stuff though - i went through all the stuff on their site before the kaiser was released - and i damn sure on there there were overview chip schematics which showed the ati bits clear as day - qualcomm have however taken them down since then prolly due to all this hoo haa witch burning psychoticness xD but at the end of the day that doesnt change the fact that other phones from other manufacturers who use the same chipset have hw acceleration so its aaaaall moot!

I think the question is fair. In the end, I am not sure whetehr the hardware being present or not affects the issue. Something was left out, whether it was hardware, firmware or software the end result is the same. I think it would be nice to get some clarification on this though, as these details may be important from a standpoint of getting the issue resolved.

At any rate, since you deal with these things as a professional, can you point us to where we could find industry stats on how often drivers are left out of consumer oriented computer systems?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Hornet331:
yep i also think the dieshot of the msm7xxx is wrong, or another possibility -> the 6260 allready had a arm11 core and it was just disabled. Just think of the P4s (northwood core), they had HT from the beginn and just enabled it later.

Thought this is only a theory. :p
