I have flashed my cyclone voyager 2 9.7 tab with this and am now stuck at the pipos screen and wont go any further.I had originally flashed it with the 1.3a and thought this rom would work.My problem is the flashing software is no longer picking up the tablet.If i press volume+ and power my pc picks up the rock usb but the software does not pick up the tablet.Help please and thank you

version 1.3 was a Jellybean ROM.

In order to switch from Jellybean to KitKat, you must have the bootloader.bin (the first item on the flashing list) selected to flash.

If you did not flash the boot loader, chances are you have hard bricked your tablet.

There is a solution in this thread:

Did you press the reset button before attempting to manually get into flash mode? It must be done from an off state.

no dnt think i did crap think i rebooted in flash each time which is how i flashed 1.3a and now cant remember if i ticked the bootloader confused with what i did with 1.3a.Always thought if it bricked i would get a black screen.My pc picks up the tablet when i enter it in flash mode but the flashing software doesnt pick it up in either finneys or batch flash

Everyone is asking about Lollipop.

Here's the deal, Folks.....Lollipop on our older Pipo tablets is only a possibility if and when an SDK is made available to us. There might be an SDK floating around, but I haven't heard of one.

We simply don't know if these KitKat sources will allow us to tweak and adjust enough to make a Lollipop ROM. It's only been a few weeks since we received all of the sources from Pipo...and most of the DEV's are just getting started on their KK mods.

It's totally up to whether the kernel developers want to take their work to that level. Since I'm not a kernel developer, I really don't know what is involved, but I do know it would be a lot of work.

While it is a logical possibility...I can't speak for the kernel developers here. Lollipop isn't on our list of goals, but it would be a cool bonus if we could pull it off...someday.

Is there any sense with JB kernel Lollipop, like in this link:

I have not tried it to Pipo M6 Pro. Still using Jelly Bean because of maximum application compatibility.

[rrileypm]

It isn't true Lollipop...not with a JB kernel.

If you are happy with JB...there's no problem sticking with it. It's really all about the user experience, and what you want to run on your tablet.

[Ripmaster]

Ok thanks for the reply rrrileypm just curious about lollipop firmware didnt think tablet would be able to run it

[Ripmaster]

I have heard the sumvision cyclone voyager 2 is the m9 max is this true and what difference in the roms if i put the m9 max roms on instead of m6 pro.Also once again thank you in your help in unbricking my cyclone tablet

[dibnah]

The cyclone voyager 2 is an m6 pro WiFi, not an m9! It flashes exactly the same as an m6 pro.

We don't really know until someone tries it.

That will be up to our kernel developers to decide...after compiling KK kernels, it it's worth it for them to spend their time porting their code to the Lollipop SDK.
