    I also got the screen corruption.

    Does this mean I have to send it away for repair? Will a software battery calibration help?

      Do you have this screen problem in 4.2 ?

      Because I get this in 4.4, but everything is good in 4.2

      If you have this in 4.4, just wait for a new ROM version from Pipo

        Nope. Its fine in 4.2. I sold this tablet to a customer (with 4.2) and gave them a horrible experience. I'm trying to fix it.

        The customer said it would sometimes go flat after 1 hour. When I had this tablet, I was getting up to 14 hours of video playback.

        The thing is, I CANNOT use 4.2 as I get the sleep of death all the time and have to reset.

        I think it needs to be repaired. And I bought from dealsprime and am unsure of their service.

        This is not a lack of battery voltage problem as it shows 4.2V and this is idle with low brightness so the voltage isn't dipping. It must be the regulator then, not the battery itself.

          Well, don't know !

          For me in 4.2, I get a problem when I do reboot, sometimes, need to do reset.
          But When I do Power off and Power On : it's OK

          For deep Sleep, try to plug in the USB : this will normaly Wake up the screen

            I'd try to do following actions:
            Fully charge the tablet. Re-flash it to stock android 4.2.2 f/w to be sure that it is installed now fine.
            Root tablet and then recalibrate battery by "Battery Calibration" application following instruction shown on the screen.
            Remove root in SuperSU app.
            Check tablet's behavior until it is discharged. Fully charge again and do video playback for 2 hours.
            If steps from above didn't help, re-flash to stock f/w again to eliminate all rooting traces and then bring to service.

            upd: This tablet has 2 batteries inside with a separated regulator on motherboard. No regulators are built in the batteries.

              Hi to everyone!

              Still no news about M8HD and KitKat?

              It is really a pity, since the tablet itself is really good... I say this not only because I actually have one, but recently I have used some other tabs, even of more famous brands (and much more expensive), but still the M8HD with some customization and optimization really can hold its place and look and feel good, not cheap in many ways....

                I'm also very much looking forward to a stable KitKat ROM for this tablet.

                      v1.5 is released!!!!!!

                      Here is the new thread:



                      Sorry, no v1.5 available quite yet. This firmware doesn't work on the M8HD. I have taken the download link down.
