** Unable to Flash Pipo N7 (4032 error) Fix **

** As usual, I’m not responsible to any FURTHER damage you might do to your tablet or yourself, by trying to manipulate the system’s ROM or Li-Ion batteries **

Background

I’ve seen a lot of people trying to flash a different ROM on these tablets and resulting with a bricked device. Ironically the ROM that bricks the device comes directly from Pipo. I’ve been in touch with Pipo engineering and they told me that the ROM posted in their website is exclusive for Android 6.0 devices, and currently there is no 7.0 ROM in their website.

As with a lot of small Chinese technology manufacturers, their company lacks of some organization, which has lead to these type of confusion. That’s some of the risk that one takes when buying these brands.

Problem

You try to roll back to Android 6.0 for whatever reason you want: stability, speed, or simply that was the only ROM available for you to recover from an error or troubleshooting your tablet.

After installing VCOM drivers (won’t even talk about this, the whole web has info on this), and flashing the 6.0 ROM via SP Flash Tools, the tablet is bricked.

Behaviour

The tablet won’t power up and there is no access to recovery, adb sideload, etc. The only response is under DEVICE MANAGER, the port appears and disappears.

The only way to make the port “stop” reconnecting, is to open SP Flash Tools and select a command (i.e. download, format, readback, etc.). Only by doing this you will be able to stablish a link with the tablet, which is expecting now to receive a Preloader.

If you try to flash the ROM again, you will now get a fat S_FT_enable_dram_fail (4032) error. All of this was done WITH THE NEGATIVE BATTERY LEAD UNSOLDERED.

Solution

Drivers

If you were able to brick it with the wrong ROM, then you don’t need to troubleshoot driver issues, sounds logic right? Drivers discarded.

Battery

The battery is soldered, you have two options. Open the tablet with a credit card-->>[ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5ucwSLCVOQ ] all along the side to unlock the clips, and then unsolder the negative lead (protect is with some tape or something while working), or just use the RESET switch on top.

ROM

Attached is the working ROM for the following PipoN7 product (latest that has been shipped since Dec 2017)

https://www.4shared.com/rar/Znmpc-q-gm/N7_OEM_70.html

Procedure

Unpack the ROM (verify the path is not too long, or else you might get an Error on SP Flash Tools)

Open SP Flash Tools, select the scatter file, verify ALL FILES are checked and press download

Connect the tablet, if the process doesn’t start, press the Tablet’s reset button on top

If the reset button doesn’t work, you need to unsolder the battery and try again

When finished close Flash Tools, disconnect and leave the tablet charging (when bricked the battery usually discharges). When connected you should see the battery icon, indicating charge

With this ROM also, we can probably have Custom Builds in the future, to make improvements to this great nifty little tablet.

Good Luck!

so, can anyone who speaks spanish find the number and call www.todosmartphone.com and ask them to dump the rom from their sedna?

Initial release :

december security patch

come with Se linux enforced

reduced nav bar height from 48 to 34 ( it was so big )

I have no time to test encryption (and i don't use it) so if you want to test encryption be sure to backup your datas before.

The main lineage features i have noticed :

per apps : control wifi,lte

Display : Live Display (night display ) / Style ( pure black theme ) / Expended desktop / Ambient display gesture

Sound : Increasing ring volume ( start volume and ramp up time )

Security : "Trust" => Privacy Guard (you will notice a warning about public key signature, it's because it's an unofficial build)

System : Buttons / System profiles / Status bar / gesture

Dev Options : Advanced restart

I am unable to make it boot for me for some reason. Asks me for a password even after a factory reset. After entering the correct one, it says something along the lines of "Decryption failed. Your password is correct but the data is corrupted." It then asks me to perform a factory reset, to which I do. But after rebooting, it leads back to this problem again.

OK, there is no addison 16.0 in LinOS. What can I do. I think the sources are local. I attached new roomservice-file.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] fireclaw722:
Alberto's device tree is tailored to AOSP, not Lineage, so you could use

brunch aosp_addsion-userdebug

over

brunch addison

and it should work.

Alternatively, you could change the sources to fit Lineage, which doesn't require many changes to get a build running. That just requires renaming the aosp_addison.mk file to lineage_addison.mk, as well as changing the references to aosp_addison to lineage_addison in both the AndroidProducts.mk and new lineage_addison.mk file.

[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] fireclaw722:
Okay, so that actually doesn't work. Interesting... I just modified the files to fit LOS's build system and that worked for me (or at least started to).

Below should got a build running for me, before I ran into SELinux errors (but those could have just been because I'm messing with things).

Also, I noticed your roomservice file put hardware-moto-sensors under hardware/sensors, instead of hardware/moto-sensors. I wouldn't think it's hardcoded, but it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong.

I'm going to try a clean build later, but hopefully this helps.

Work around is going to installed applications & turning off optimisation for that app. I also had the same issue with Poweramp player. I did this & now it's fine. No impact on battery life.

---------- Post added at 05:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------

Quick tip: if you notice any sort of lag or stutter in this ROM, then just disable digital wellbeing. I disabled it & wow........no lag or stutter in anything. I play pubg on low settings but my fps is in extreme. I get 58-60fps on pubg without lag or stutters after disabling digital wellbeing. You won't notice the difference right away but trust me it works.

It's the same issue the pixel 3's are facing.

---------- Post added at 05:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

Oh ya & can anyone suggest me a good ROM for this z play?

Since the developer is done with this ROM, I wanna know if someone is going to continue updating this ROM or not.

If not then only option is to flash different ROM.

Can anyone suggest good ROM.

I would like it to be as close to this ROM as possible.

The is the 2nd ROM I've flashed on the z play & it's the best one so far. I'm really happy with this ROM.

I would prefer something with a true dark mode, unlike stock android 9.0 which is grey. Yuck....
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eskimos2000:
Maybe somebody will pick up this rom and continue PLEASE?

Such good stuff.

BTW How to disable digital wellbeing? Where is it?
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Adhik Deepak:
Go to installed apps & u will find digital well-being. Disable it like any other app.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eskimos2000:
Strange I do not have it there either.:confused:
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Adhik Deepak:
You will have digital well-being if you flash nanao gapps & above. Those who flashed Pico will not have digital well-being.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eskimos2000:
That's it, I used pico so all good. In general this rom perform very well for me.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Adhik Deepak:
Same here. But disabling digital well-being gives it an extra umph.

Like PUBG 60fps kinda umph.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Adhik Deepak:
See I've disabled it.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eskimos2000:
I am into into gaming so, but I am surprised that this phone still can play PUBG at 60fps, wow. I might try it just to see it believed it ;).
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Adhik Deepak:
Ya it can play PUBG at 60fps. But you will need to install GFX tool from play Store to enable it.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eskimos2000:
:good:

Thx I will try it later.

Cheers

but will continue to bring us the compilations of the month.
