    iFive 2S RileyROM 1.0 KitKat

    This is my first ROM for the iFive 2S tablet. It is based on an official iFive firmware release dated 1/10/2014.

    The challenge with this ROM is that it introduced KitKat to this tablet. I don't have a Jellybean ROM for you to switch back to if you have problems...so make sure you have a Jellybean ROM to flash if you don't like KitKat.

    IMPORTANT FACTS
    You run the risk of bricking your tablet if you don't understand these important facts!!!!!! If you end up bricking because you weren't paying attention to this post, you can check the Pipo forums for possible solutions. It is very well documented...so do your homework before you post for help.

    1. You MUST flash the RK3188Loader(L)_V2.10.bin the first time you flash this ROM. KitKat requires this new loader to run. If you choose to go back to Jellybean...you MUST flash the loader for that ROM. The loaders aren't interchangeable.

    2. NONE of the files in a KitKat ROM are backward compatible with Jellybean files...so you can't use an OC kernel from my Jellybean ROM with this ROM, or you will not boot. I'm not sure if there are any OC kernels for this tablet, anyway.

    IF you are having trouble understanding the above two items, I've warned you about...please read this thread: KitKat ROM's
