[Q] Problems updating Hyundai T7s tablet to jelly bean 4.2 (official rom) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I'm encountering some problems when i'm trying to update my Hyundai T7S tablet to the official jelly bean 4.2 ROM.
I've the update from the Hyundai website (hyundai-digital .cn). This download comes in a .rar file. I knew it would be impossible, but tried anyway to flash this file from the SD-card. But to make it work this way, the update should be a .zip-file.
In the .rar file are 15 files, some of them are .bin and .img files. And I've not the knowledge what I can do with these files. Unfortunately the support guide of Hyundai can not be opened and two hours googling didn't help me out. So here's my question:
Is it possible to convert the .rar file into a .zip file and flesh this file? Or can I flash the rar-file in some way?
Thanks!
ps. i had the full links copied in my message, but since this is my first post, i cannot post links. Sorry for that!

Extract all files in zip to SD card (ext.). Power OFF. Press Volume - and Power and update will start. Looks like you use Volume + not - witch takes you to recovery mode. When done tablet will turn OFF. Power ON and you should have new firmware.
You are talking about "HYUNDAI T7S-20130318" ?....if yes it is not 4.2 is still 4.0.4; If you found a most recent one (4.2), can you email me with download link please ?....I can't find 4.2 for T7(S). Thank you !

I think 4.2 is not yet aivailable at all.

Here is some link: http://www.hyundai-digital.cn/Download.asp?ClassID=1
In the section HYUNDAI T7S-20130318, there is something about Android 4.2
Can someone confirm this? If it is 4.2 I am buying this tablet right now .)

I believe it is, but I only got mine yesterday, not even rooted it yet.
Google translation:
The latest firmware of modern flat panel HYUNDAI T7S-20130318
HYUNDAI T7S firmware instructions
1 running memory 2GB storage memory 16GB
2 rear camera front 300,000 5,000,000 with flash
3 the system Android4.0.4 behind will update Android4.2 system (do please look forward)

The website says it is 4.0.4, and will update to 4.2 in the future.
Can anyone tell me know to root this device? I tried Exynos abuse, it does not work.

exactly. even though some sites advertise it as a 4.2 device, the latest available stable fw is still the 4.0.4 from the 18th of March.
I just tried exynos abuse 1.4 about 2 hours ago on my t7s and it worked like a charm.

Waiting for 4.2 too
Another T7S user here, waiting for 4.2, too. Is there something wrong with the website? When I visit http://www.hyundai-digital.cn/ it tells me:
bad requesta (invalid hostname)
I copy/pasted it, and yes, it's "requesta". I don't know what's going on with that D:

from what i've read (some weeks ago): the main hyundai company has told that branch producing the tablets not to manufacture devices to be exported from china, so they're cutting the rest of the world off their official site --> you'll be able to reach the webpage via a chinese proxy (as if you're browsing from china).
about the update for which we're all waiting for: last time it was told to be released in 2013 june, so i still haven't given up yet. anyway: just search for "slatedroid" on the internet if you'd like to get updates about the tablet in english

Another possibility could be porting CyanogenMod OR buying a tablet to a developer. We already have CM for the same SoC, so I think about xplodwild or codeworkx, the two main i9300 maintainers

That would be great!
This tablet will literally fly with CM.
How can I ask to a developer to port to this device? Is it there a specific forum? Or just pm them?

Well that'd then be the reason why the 4.2 ROM for the rest of the world is now available to download through MediaFire rather than an official Hyundai page.
For those who haven't found it yet, this post on the GeekBuying blog details the download and installation of the 4.2.2 upgrade.
I'm in the process of downloading the 222Mb archive now; going rather slow which is nothing new for MediaFire.

[Q] Any ROMs for U8500 ?

hello my firends! Im a new android user, bought first android phone just week ago. I have Huawei U8500 and i think it's very new model and there are very few people who have it. There's no official 2.2 or 2.3 version so im looking for ROM. I think there is no ROMs for this model yet ? But can i use ROMs which was created for other phones ? im really really hoping that someone will make 2.2 or 2.3 for this model. Thanks for answers.
i was searching for few days... i understand russian a little bit so i found 2.2 version made by russian guy, i didn't tried it yet becouse i don't how to instal that so i dont know if it's with russian language or not, but fact is that there is 2.2 version for U8500 ! Few russians tried that and it's working fine for them !
it's link for the 2.2 narod.ru/disk/4575221001/%D0%9F%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%88%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%BA%D0%B02.2_2901.rar.html
Im also trying when i have spare time to locate a u8500 rom . im a extremly novice user tho so prolly wont find much .
Tried to get that russian rom but seems the link is dead or just blocked .
Is anyone working on a eng realease for this phone ?

To install it:
1. Unrar it to your computer, and find a folder named "dload" with the biggest size.
2. Copy that "dload" folder to root of your SD card
3. turn off phone
4. Hold volume up key + end call (red) key and the press power key. Wait for it to load, it will say something like "Updating system" Wait for it to finish, if it says fail, just try again
5. After it says "Update complete" or "Update successful" just restart your phone and you'll have the new beta firmware.
6. Reboot can take about 5 minutes. Be patient.
Do it always while charging.
Highly recommend to back up the original firmware before installing new ROM's
On your own risk. You can brick your phone and you void your phones warranty.

Hi, to load phone in recovery mode and to fulfill wipe date and a cache. I apologize for the bad English
How did you guys download this?
The only way i can see the link to proceed to download is via google translate. And when i click it i get a 404.
/Peter
You cant use google translate when clicking! Under the android guy pic, click where it says сюда, you then come to another site, just now click on a link on the page, that will take you to another page (the sponsor page), then you will se that it will start ticking the time in the top of the window, then after that you can click again and actually start the download....

Just wanted to say that this rom works awesome on my u8300.
It requires some tweaking. Change of lcd density etc. And the screen calibration isn't perfekt. But it's much faster than the stock rom so i'll stick with it.
Definetly worth a shot.
But according to a user on another forum there might be problems when you downgrade from a 8500 rom to the stock 8300. I haven't tested, so i can't really comment on that...

[Q] Available roms for the Cube U39GT?

I am planning to buy one of these tablets to tinker with. After some searching, I found the following rom alternatives:
http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum...-firmware-version-1-04-test-version-20130723/
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/91121-tempestu39gt-roms-v0001/
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/89434-custom-firmware-from-4pda-based-on-stock-104/
Do you know of any other worthwhile rom to try out, or are these three all that's available?
Anyone?

thanks for sharing, gonna try the TempestU39GT
There's also 1.05 multiwindow rom that some say is better than stock 1.04, download is here :

Do not buy the Cube U39GT-3G version of this tablet, I ordered one from http://www.cube-tablet.com and it came with a wrong IMEI number. I cannot use any SIM data card because of this with this tablet.
I bought the Wifi version, so I am not in danger. Thanks for the warning though, it certainly speaks of extremely crappy QA.
racht: anytime, and thank you for the link to 1.5.
It seems like another rom might be on the works:
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?8204-Are-there-any-worthwhile-roms-for-the-Cube-U39GT
Apparently it will be based on stock 1.04 instead of 1.05, but if it comes to completion it might be worth it to try it out.

ROM has been uploaded yesterday but the dev doesn't own a U39GT. So anyone willing to test can do it now
I can't believe that slipped by me. Thanks for the heads-up. :good:
http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum...2-custom-root-firmware-version-1-06-20131123/
This looks promising as well with 1.06 Cube firmware update and AOSP launcher.
New original Cube firmware 1.06 is downloadabl from official cube site.
http://www.51cube.com/ch/DownShow.asp?ID=205
I can recommend Google for translating the chinese, you can download the ROM from baidu which could take a few hours.
Awesome, thanks for the heads-up.
They require registration to access the downloads? Dammit, I refuse to create an account just to go and download something. Do you have an account there, locutus2000? If so, would you be willing to mirror it somewhere?
I was able to fix the IMEI issue, so it is safe to buy, again. The support from the vendor was not helpful, the wrong IMEI number is not only wrong for me but for all of the sold models. They all have 111111111111111 as IMEI number, no big deal with the MTK Droid Tools I was able to load a new IMEI, that was generated from an internet site. It works with the SIM cards now.
Important to know: the Cube 9 Talk with the 3G SIM card uses MediaTek MTK8389T CPU whereas the Cube 9 without the SIM card 3G feature uses a RockChip RK3188 CPU. The ROMs are not interchangeable.
So whatever issues you may have, it may be a completely different story for the person that owns the other chipset. Strange enough that Cube built two similar products with completely different hardware.
The Cube U39GT 3G ROM Version 1.03 for the 3G version can be found here:
http://www.51cube.com/ch/DownShow.asp?ID=206
If you have donwloaded and unpacked the firmware, you may end up with chinese folder names. Flash tool did not accept the scatter file when I tried to select it using these folder names.
To resolve this: Simply create a new folder name and copy/paste the ROM of the Cube to the new folder, the update should then work with the Flashtool. I have used Version 3.1328.0.183. The update takes a while so be patient. Worked with mine.

Thank you for important info, I have 3G version too. And how did you succeed root, can you give me any advice?

i guess its 4.2.2

Discontinued.. the rom seems to be of i8558 and not i8552...thanks for all those who tested it..
A guy on facebook pasted a link and was asking if v could c if its really 4.2.2 ... currently i cant download such a big file so can any1 of u can just check if its 4.2.2:laugh::good:
>>>Credits for link---- Jesus Jake Estadilla
i am downloading and will report on this, dont know if ill flash it though.
ps, googling "CHM-I8552ZMUAMK1" sent me in to some pages reporting it to be for GT-I8558, which officially has 4.2
EDIT: CHM-I8552ZMUAMK1 seems from China Mobile, where as there is another 4.2.2 version from India, which is INS-I8552XXANA5, downloading both now, will mirror in mega probably.
If possible plz upload to pcloud...
Sent from my GT-I8552 using XDA Free mobile app
I am uploading three packages right now, the two suspicious 4.2.2 and the latest 4.1.2 (just in case, havent seen mirrors around)

INS-I8552XXANA5-4.2.2 - One Package
I8552XXANA5_I8552ODDANB3_I8552DDAMI1_HOME.tar.md5
the indian one package seems way too fishy, searching the name strings shows a similar name release for JB 4.1.2...dont kill me for that, just downloaded and repackaged everything from the baidu stuff in china.
EDIT: how similar is 8558 with 8552? anyone knows this?
Porting of Android 4.2.2 from different carrier.
Unfortunately it's the same 4.1.2 build.
Here is the sammy link check out:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=33961
And as we are talking about the i8558 is already based on android 4.2.2. I think any of the developers could port it for having the same hardware and even the specifications.
Here is the link for its latest build :
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=32288
Good thinking, i tried to get the 8558 in samsung-updates.com but it didnt show up.
I'll download MG1 as well, seems newer then the leaked one, and as you can see on the MK1 multi package file names, they all have 8558 in the naming conventions.
is there any report for the phones having cross compatible roms? cause my phones name is Galaxy Win Duos (not quattro), but it shows 8552.
EDIT: here's the mirror of your first initial link you've posted. I'll try to find a link for MG1 as well, i cant see the link in sammobile.
I8552ZMUAMK1
and latest JB 4.1.2 in case anyone wants it:
I8552XXANH4
Galaxy Win Duos is an alternative name for Galaxy Grand Quattro. It depends of the country.
And about the rom: it was tested? I will flash it later to see if it is 4.2.2.

not sure if it'll work though, i've just found another thread like this in our Win/Quattro community...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2680287
most of the devs seem CM or kernel oriented, i doubt we will ever see any port of this if it doesnt work out of the box.
anyway, im am downloading MG1, so dont bother flashing MK1, i will upload it ASAP at pcloud.
EDIT: no company can confuse the sh!t out of ur soul then sammy...
it is so hard to tell which one is the latest now, while replying the above posts, i've noticed that MK1 should be way above MG1, yet MG1 has a newer build date then MK1, where as the first firmware ever released was MI1, which means highest PDA value. WTF??? Check the attachment for the ROM order in sammobile.

According to Sammobile, MG1 is newer then MK1. Alphabetically it shouldnt, but MG1 is 2014 where as MK1 is 2013.
Here's the mirror for MG1 as well, this one is a single package:

That's because it is, actually, NG1, not MG1. So it goes later.
I am downloading right now, soon I will flash it.
EDIT 1: Odin refuses to flash the package of first post's link. The progress meter don't increase. I am downloading now an package of Sammobile to try again.
EDIT 2: The package of Sammobile was refused too. A CWM-flashable zip may work.
If someone create a flashable zip, I test. I don't know how to make one from stock rom.
Oh, it is NG1, thanks for noting that, i wouldve never noticed it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2149123
Juat found this Odin to Zip guide...
I will try this, but I am not sure if it works. Android Kitchen can create a flashable zip, but it needs to be configured for our device and I don't know how to do it.
Anyway, I will try the link.
I used this link to do some changes on the script:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/grand-quattro/development/info-win-grand-quattro-partition-t2792496
I changed the /system partition to mmcblk0p21.
EDIT 1: I just prepared the zip, I'm going to flash it right now.
EDIT 2: Flashed it successfully, but didn't boot. I'm going to change the kernel to see if it works.
EDIT 3: Doesn't boot. The rom need to be ported.
made an inquiry myself Here, but i looks like u got all the info needed.
too bad , both sammy and community seem to ignore this device pretty well
Newest i8558 rom. http://pan.baidu.com/s/1i3l5YxZ
Baidu links outside china are useless. Besides, ur link seems to have only Odin and a couple of other tools, no rom there.
I'd advise everyone to ignore this thread, ofc except devs who could port this since it's 99% our phone.
nope
the GT-I8552 is still on 4.1.2 JB !!!!
When i did live chat with samsung guys, they said there would be update to 4.4.2 but there is no official date yet.

[Q] Honor/Mediapad X1 - Android 5 Lollipop

Hi,
Do you have any info about Android 5.0 (Lollipop) for our Honor/Mediapad X1 ?
I kinda would also love to know about Huawei updates, in my case for MediaPad M1. But wer are dealing with Huawei here (my first Android device ever was U8880...) and the X1 been only out since april 2014 and M1 since may 2014, making these devices barely 6 months old, i think tho, if we are not seeing official updates once the devices are ~1 year old, we aint gettin anything. As of now, my device has the stock firmware, that's Android 4.2.2 with EMUI 2.0 and not a single update available, at this point, even update to 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 with EMUI 2.3 or 3 would be friggin marvelous.

I came across one site that claims to have lollipop ROM.

99% a hoax.
Few things gave it away:
1) It claimed to be from xda-developers, now I don't see any lollipop rom for X1 here, do u?
2) I don't think any rom for lollipop will be as small as 128MB, and in these days, I don't think any uploader will be splitting a 128MB file into 3 parts, unless ..
3) .. all he/she wants is for the potential downloader to complete as many surveys as possible! Any download that require one to complete a survey beforehand is usually shady.
Proceed with caution if you still wish to find out for yourself.

Please note that sometime ago Huawei declared a list of devices that would get Lollipop update. Mediapad X1 was not listed. So don't expect any upgrade to Lollipop for our device from the manufacturer.
August is promising
Huawei official, moderator of X1 community on the chinese EMUI website
He said they will start development on August to finish bu the end of September
Hope they finish it fast :good:

Dear even if Huawei provide lollipop rom upgrade to x1, it is not going to make any difference. Have you watched videos of x2? There is no difference in the UI of X1 with Kitkat or X2 with Lollipop, as both have EMUI 3.x. IMHO the real joy of having Lollipop is with the stock experience and with tweaks added from CM.

MediaPad M5 Pro - How can I update to Android 9/10?

Hello,
I have a MatePad M5 Pro that is stuck on Android 8.
Model: CMR-W19
I don't care if it's official ROM or custom ROM. I would like to maintain the WidevineL1 and mpen and keyboard support.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Try downloading HiSense software onto a PC, then connect your Mediapad to the PC and it will check for updates, even if checking for updates on your Mediapad itself doesn't find any.
This worked for mine. I was stuck on 8 too, until HiSense found an update and did the update on my Mediapad, then the Mediapad was able to find further incremental updates itself.

Any idea which to use? There are a lot of different Android 9 builds.
And how do I sideload on this device? Sorry if that's a noob question. haven't had to do this for a number of years.
When you click on a version to download, it gives you full instructions on how to install.
You are best going up in stages.
Find the same version that you have currently installed, then download the next version number up.
They're all for the same device, but that is a list of every update that's been released.
So install the next version up from yours, then try searching for the next update manually on your device to see if it then triggers it to keep updating itself. If need, just keep running the updates by SD card method.

Thanks! Im guessing I just can't install the latest update first?
I'm not sure.
Mine did incremental (about 6 in total), even though the latest one was newest.
To be sure, you're best off going up in order.
Because it's fully stock and you're doing in the correct way, it will scan first, so any issues and it won't install - so nothing to lose.
Hi all,
Had a read through this thread to see if there was any chance of an Android Update for my device but from the answers given, I can't seem to find anything.
I'm using an M5 Pro 10.8 (CMR-L09 - Cellular) on 8.0.0.203 and the Huawei Updater site doesn't seem to have anything above this for my model.
If I was to look at installing an OTA for the likes of the CMR-W19, would this harm my device at all?
They're both Cellular, both 10.8". Only thing I can really see different is that they are 64GB and I'm 32GB.
Also, as a side question, I don't have a PC, what's the best way to download and install an update using the device itself?
I look forward to a reply!

In regards to the part of if it would be bad..
CMR-W19 is not an LTE model. So if you do successfully flash the ROM, not sure if you would have issues with LTE.
Ahhh, glad I checked! Thanks for the reply!

Would I use the OTA-MF or FULLOTA-MF?
CMR-AL19 (m5 Pro 64gb LTE) here. I'm on 8.0.0.199 Android 8.0 With July 19 Security patches. No Update available. Huawei support told me there is no newer version available for this Model.... I'm abit mad coz it's even the 'pro' Model..
