Arnova 10G2 with 8GB, Stock Firmware needed

[schrisis]

Hi everybody,
i'm new here and i hope somebody can help me with my problem.
I've bought an Arnova 10G2 Tablet with 8GB on ****. Yes it's
a 10G2 with 8GB and not a 10bG2 with 8GB. Stock Firmware is
Android 4.03 but this Firmware is not available on Arnova Web-
page. Does anyone have this stock firmware? I've flashed several
custom FW's but no one supports 8GB and the touch works also not
accurate.


Yes, i've dumped my pad, and i can reinstall my dump, but then the
touch doesn't work anymore. What goes wrong? Can anybody help?


Sorry for my bad english, hope you will understand my problem ;-)

we would need to see a copy of your firmware dump . to the best of my knowledge the 10g2 never came out with a stock ics firmware . if you can provide a link to your dump the we may be able to figure out whats going on .

Hello tattman65,

thanks for your reply. Yes, the initial version of the 10G2 was delivered with Android 2.3, was is mentioned on the box. But there is an additional sticker which says, that ICS is installed. I've linked some pictures of the original box here:


Also i've packed my dumped backup.img and uploaded it here:

Hope this is the right file.Chris

I made a test ROM to try. It's rooted.

One thing I had to do is extract the kernel out of the boot.img and sign it. Maybe that will help, but I'm not sure.

I didn't look to see if there were more apps to debloat from this ROM...I'm headed out the door pretty quick for a basketball game.

Hey Guys,

thanks for your effort. I gave it a quick try, but the pad doesn't come out of the boot screen.
Don't know why. I have checked out the parameters and there are differences in the offsets.
Here are the parameters i saved:

i've got a couple of 10g2's ,when i get home i'll give it a look and see whats going on.

[rrileypm]

OK, I let my kitchen make the parameters automatically. Let me do a manual parameter check and see what went wrong.

Which parameter file did you try?

[rrileypm]

OK, as I recall, there is only 4gb of NAND on the 10G2...correct?

If that's the case, we can only safely use a 2gb parameter setting, otherwise it won't leave room for the system, or any internal NAND storage.

So I edited this 2gb parameter to replace the one in the ROM kit. I just wasn't thinking about how much NAND was on it.

Here you go:

Randy my friend ,it's still just sitting here at the bootimage, 1gb par. did not help .

do you think maybe i could try an older flash tool ? like 1.29 if i recall there was some issues with different flash tools , or something . wow that was awhile back .
