"Note: There are older versions of this hardware with no HOME/MENU/BACK buttons, running WinCE. These cannot be upgraded to Android as far as we know right now."

Hi i have x5 with wince Original; i succes upgrade to android.

If you can try to install android ( you can use micro switch ) you can show only bootscreen and Android logo, after the device is blocked.

For full function you can enter whit adb in you device ( use droidexplorer or similar) search /system/lib/egl.cfg .

The file contain video card configuration

......

0 0 android

0 1 mali

Remove line 0 1 mali , the tablet run.

(note. At moment the tablet has a problem whit color "solarize", film it's ok)

Best Regards
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Asure:
There is a more recent one, out in public, but it holds the same (older) kernel. I think the Android stuff is 'sold separate'.

it seems new firmware is available for X5A. it is no link but you can get here.

lk.rom is same as 0816. kernel build is #369.

USB 3G is added (just like HaiPad #370) and phone provider seems to be changed from "El Telco Loco" to "(No service)". I don't use Market so I don't know it affects Market.

... and factory reset(wipe) is functional now :)

just FYI

http://big5.amazepc.com/product/Netbook/am07t01.html

it seems to be Phecda P7.

firmware download link is broken. here is correct address.

http://download.amazepc.com/Telechipupdate123.rar

kernel build is #354. lk.rom and boot.img is different from X5A. system.img is almost same as X5A 0816.

I strongly discourage for flashing it to X5A.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] abarth01:
Did they perhaps fix some of the bugs? My unit came with #348 installed and suffers some annoying issues (love the device though).

- The speaker sometimes doesn't work after turning on the device. After a few sleeps/wake ups it's ok again (headphones keep working all the time though).

- Date & Time settings are not saved (reset to 01-01-1970 1:00AM on every boot), so I need to set those everytime I power on the device. Annoying!

- Sleep mode doesn't seem to work properly. Battery is draining just as fast in sleep mode as it does while using it. Green led light stays on while in sleep mode.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
rap_1978,

you said "press & hold screen" + power doesn't work on your X5A?

if it is true, you need to use internal switch to enter USB boot mode.

my X5A was #205 and initial bootloader doesn't support "press & hold screen" + power method.

But there is a HUGE BUT in Phecda 7P, company made theme declared the are 4Gb Nand and as it appeared they goes with 2Gb... They proudly wrote in Manual 4GB, that was fake for all devices(I haven't touch them free Space was ~800Mb MTD ~1Gb and was displayed wrong on old #268 build Device on other's displayed correctly)...

Is this Update Working for HSG X5A also? - If I try is it possible that I brake something? Thanks in advance,
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] darzanebor:
You can always try it, but If new firmware wont go on your devices, you must have firmware that works for you to roll back(old or original or tested)...

Nope, this devices, almost unbreakable, like all Telechips.... Even if you kill bootloader it would start from FWDN(Just add lk.rom to FWDN first)... The buttons for Phecda 7P is to Hold the Menu button + Power Button for a while...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
I heard "MENU + power" is to enter FWDN mode on P7. I heard internal switch to enter USB boot mode is missed(only land pattern) on P7.

if you kill bootloader or you flashed lk.rom for another tablet, only internal switch can be used. am I wrong?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] darzanebor:
I flashed wrong bootloader... It hasn't started(black screen on try to boot) so. I added lk.rom to FWDN, then held Menu+PowerButton after that it booted with lk.rom with no problems

:eek:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
I see. thanks.

I forgot one thing. on X5A, if bootloader killed completely (e.g. erase entire NAND), it goes USB boot mode automatically.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] darzanebor:
On any device with Telechips I think... I used this firmware on Phecda 7P.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dvb127:

Have you had any luck booting your own kernel yet?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Asure:
Is it a replacement for lk.rom or for boot.img ?

If it is for boot.img, make sure you properly packed it with the init and stuff.

Did you use mkbootimg ? Patched ?

You can try to send a link to your kernel and i'll whip it up in boot.img to see where that ends up at.. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] VeNoMouSNZ:
boot.img and yea with patches mkbootimg, i then flash_write boot with the new image.

3Gb internal storage, Factory rest & Root

Hey everybody,

I've just bought a X5A apad and when I got it they said it had 4 Gb internal storage.

When I checked it in the settings > SD card ~& device storage it only shows 262Mb not 4Gb.

So I connected the X5A to my desktop and mounted the internal storage and they in I find a folder called nand/DCIM/100ANDRO and they was the 3Gb not 4 but that is understandable most likely !Gb must be for the O/S.

My question is how do I get to install software on the 3Gb not the 262Mb?

How do you rest the unit to factory default I tried in setting > Privacy . Factory data rest but all i does is reboot the unit but software that I installed does not get deleted and the gmail account is not delete so it did not work.

I've tried to root the unit but the ADB does not see the unit how do yuou get the ADB to see the unit so I can root it?

Anybody can help me please please

Thanks

Now I am in trouble!

1) I try to reflash to Asure0.1b and got error.

2) I use "low format all memory" and got same error when.

3) I try to flash lk.rom, reset and flash NAND DATA and tcc8900_mtd - same error

Now i can load only in FWDN boot mode.

Looks like this ROM for 4G device only cause i have 2G model. Or where i am wrong?

Answer:

1) Flash lk.rom, reset

2) lk.rom + tcc8900_mtd, uncheck NAND Data.fai

3) click on NAND Data. Fill out name 'a' (without quotes) and add it.

4) flash

I got mine shipped today thanks to Androidtablets.net owners.

Mine came with #348. My only WinXP computer is a laptop with a busted LCD, so i didn't bother.

The touchscreen is really bad. I will try harder to calibrate, but this is why people hate resistive touchscreens. The Apad touchscreen (RK2808/TCC8902/S3C6410) form factor doesn't have a thick layer on top and is much more sensitive even though it a resistive touch screen. My touch buttons on the side are pretty bad as well.

With regards to development, I only briefly tried to repack framework-res.apk and failed using APKManager. I wanted ot optimize the PNGs.

Out of the box, #348 is usable, but I rooted right away to remove the useless market apps, put in Contacts, eliotstocker's music mod, and upgraded Google Maps since the one included is signed differently than the one in the market.

SetCPU didn't yield very good results. The device is not being slowed down by the CPU clock as much as the lack of RAM. So I installed AutoKiller and set it to 'moderate setting' on startup to tweak lowmemkiller.

I'm new to this thread so I'll try to update myself a little bit...

I am more of a ROM cook, but one cool thing I did for my Acer Liquid before the Froyo ROMs is compiling libwebcore to support animated gif files. If someone has a build environment up and running and want to share, by all means please do. V8 webkit as well. It's a RAM hog but maybe the platform can handle it. Should see performances increases in all webkit based applications. Compile for ARM11. This will also benefit PDN users.

hello,

first of all i must mention that i'm a nawbie and that i don't speak english very good.

hello,

I have an Haipad Mid 701 2.1-update1, 2.6.29 root@localhost#94 build MID 1.1 with HDMI and 3G sensor. I'm trying to flash it with the new drivers because i have problems. But each time i plug it i have this message that appears in a FWDN window "Device probing" :

"[ERROR] CFwdnPort::FWDN_Command:Fwnd Command Failure! (0/32)

[ERROR] CFwdnPort::Load_UBS:Cmd_Download_UBS Failure! (0/64)

[ERROR] CFwdnDownload::Load_UBS:Failure! (device=0)"

Let me tell you what i done : first i opened FWDN, then i plugged my phone -in mass storage mode- in, i see that FWDN window freeze, but nothing else -just a new window of my file explorer with files in my phone-. So i plugged the phone out, and the FWDN 's window freeze again but nothing else. Then i hold on the button of the upper right corner of the tablet, i put it in "on" position and i plugged it in and ... always the same message !

Could somebody help me, please ?

I am back again. reflashed and unbricked my device (again), but I seem to have a strange problem with my touchscreen now: the whole left part has become very unresponsive, means that pressing the letter "a" the letters "w" and "e" are confirmed/typed.

I tried to recalibrate about 100 times, but nothing changes. Find that very strange, 'cos I had a quite responsive and accurate touchscreen when I first got the device...

Hmm.. any ideas?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xaueious:
1) X5A with no g sensor or GPS

3) no clue. Supposedly it's not even in there.

4) Don't be flashing the main ROM, because the new ones use a different kernel than the X5As. You will at least lose multitouch, if not break other stuff. Use ADB using the modified drivers and flash recovery using flash_image recovery ___.img. Clockwork recovery might still be okay. If the recovery doesn't work, it needs a kernel repack.

5) adb push libwebcore.so to /system/lib to get fully animated GIFs
