This ROM is based on an official Pipo firmware update dated 4/3/2014. Finally, an official KitKat release from Pipo for this great tablet. It's for both Wifi and 3G versions.
Since this IS the first KK version I'm releasing for this tablet, I need to say a few things about flashing a KK ROM.
First, you MUST keep the loader (first line of the flash tool) checked. KK won't run without it, and you WILL brick your tablet if you uncheck it!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, you MUST erase IDB before flashing. It's important to format the NAND to allow for a new metadata partition included in KitKat.
Now, if you want to go back to a Jellybean ROM after you have flashed this ROM, you must first erase IDB from this ROM. Then you can open the Flash Tool for the Jellybean ROM and follow the procedure as before, but MAKE SURE you check the loader...or you will brick your tablet.
There are some threads in the stickies of the main Pipo section that can assist you if you brick your tablet. HERE and HERE
