Yes, there's a thread in the MTK Phones forum for phone ROM requests.

[fran6]

Can one request ROM for mtk phones too?

If you have a request for one of our developers to create a custom ROM for your device, just make a post in this thread.

The ground rules are simple.

We need to know the Brand and Model of your device, and we require a link to the official factory firmware for your device. Some spec information would be nice like NAND Flash capacity, what MTK chip is in the device and the actual screen resolution.

So, here is the format you should post:

1. Brand Name
2. Model Name/Number
3. Which MTK chip is installed
4. Link to stock firmware or a ROM dump from your device
5. Total NAND flash capacity
6. Screen resolution

Please post your request in that format, and wait to ask until you have a link to the firmware because we can't possibly have access to every factory firmware on the planet without your help.

We may need to add some more rules as we go, but this is a start.

DigiLand DL1010Q 10.1 MT8127

My full dump is linked in this thread, I can't upload anything.

http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?23287-DigiLand-10-1-DL1010Q-MT8127

Hardware : MT8127
Model : DL1010Q
Build number : A1008L_V1.4.2
Build date UTC : 20150112-094502
Android v : 4.4.2
Baseband v: -----
Kernel v : 3.4.67 (lai@lai-To-be-filled-by-O-E-M) (gcc version 4.7 (GCC) ) #3 SMP Wed Jan 14 17:02:06 CST 2015
Uboot build v : -----
LCD Driver IC : 1-crk070b1_18a_017_lvds

Resolution is 1024x600

Calls itself a 16GB tablet but it's a little over 14GB visible through the OS - I can get you a more exact number if you need it.

[rrileypm]

I personally don't do them...but maybe another developer would be willing.

So, yes....you can post your request. It may or may not get fulfilled, though.

Cyanogenmod ports welcome?

Hello!
Are Cyanogenmod ports also welcome on this thread?

CUBE TALK79 Octa-Core

I'd like to expand my user app space, but I don't know well about the system.

1. Cube
2. Talk 79 Octa Core
3. MTK8392
4. Link to stock firmware(http://www.51cube.com/ch/DownShow.asp?ID=273)
5. 16GB
6. 2048X1536

Please, make custom rom for this model.

Seems you are right on the specs. It came with either the bluetooth or USB keyboard, and the 1.4 quad core chips is RK3188-T. That makes the 610 a rockchip device right? Which would mean the 610 is not an MTK device? Or am I wrong here?

That's correct, it's a Rockchip device.

If you can access factory firmware for it, send me a link and I can do a Rockchip ROM for you...but let's carry on further discussion in the Wish List thread for RK ROM's.

If there's no firmware available (which is typical for RCA products...they don't post firmware on their site for some reason )...you can attempt to provide a ROM dump from your tablet for me.

This is for RK only...but here is a ROM dump method...it works better if the tablet is rooted.

Open a terminal
Type su and enter to get the # prompt.

Then just dump using the DD command in busybox and dump to SDcard.

dd if=/dev/block/mtdblock1 of=/sdcard/kernel.img
dd if=/dev/block/mtdblock8 of=/sdcard/system.img
dd if=/dev/block/mtdblock2 of=/sdcard/boot.img
dd if=/dev/block/mtdblock3 of=/sdcard/recovery.img

Check your MTD blocks for the same number but most have been the same.

Also, each of my RK ROM's includes a ROM dumping tool...which may be a better choice...the instructions are provided. This will allow you to also dump the parameter file, which is another important part I need to make the ROM with.

However you do it...I need:

parameter
kernel.img
boot.img
recovery.img
system.img

If there is a resource.img...I need it too...but that's only for RK3288 devices.

Hard to say... they may have the RK3188-T in one version and an MTK in another... I'm not sure how many different model numbers there might be...

The build.prop file might offer some clues, or an app like cpu-z or cpu identifier should be able to identify the processor.

Interesting... that is the best description I've heard yet about the RCT6103W46...

Sounds like there are at least 4 versions of the RCA Pro 10 then... I am sure there was a cordless bluetooth keyboard version and corded usb version with a RK3188T...

You're probably correct about more internal differences between the 610 and 620... especially considering they have different charging ports...

What is it with all these chinese manufacturers making tablets with usb only charging and not enabling usb fast charging in the kernels!?!?

I think what I'd like to see for the 610 is enabling the fast charging, custom boot animation (can that be done in xPosed?), and maybe a few tweaks here and there. I've read that the 610 is not getting KitKat, and for what I use it for, I'm ok with that. If custom ROM's start cropping up for it that lead to KitKat and possibly Lollipop then I may jump on board with that.

More 610 info. It takes a lot longer to boot. You have to hold the power button for at least 5 seconds. My wife's 620 is closer to two. Booting into recovery also gives you different menus, but i think that has as much to do with the differences between JB and KK.

Enabling usb fast charging would require a custom kernel. I haven't had the time to learn kernel compiling... but maybe one of the kernel devs around here could do something...

The boot animation is in the system folder and can be changed on any rooted device. There are LOTS of Play Store apps that let you choose a boot animation and swap it for you... some of them even let you choose multiple ones and rotate them so it's different each boot...

Any logo splash screens before the animation are another story... The kernel can have a logo, the boot image can have another logo, and some devices have additional logos in special partitions... none of these can be changed by the average user... changing them requires learning pretty much everything about ROM development for the particular hardware type...

dunno, but i really like this tablet. would have preferred to get another 620, but the 610 isn't all bad. especially with xposed and gravity box. I've added greenify as well, and it runs super smooth after all permissions are granted.

[shaunmt]

The RCT6103W46 case isn't bluetooth. When you slide the tablet into the case is connects to the micro usb. under the keyboard on the right is another micro usb and on the keyboard is a toggle switch that changes from keyboard to media. This also allows the tablet to be charged via usb, but only when hooked to a computer. do not connect the usb to a wall unit.

The 610 has a crappy little wall charger, but it charges faster than the standard usb charger does on the 620. charging via my computer is very slow when the tablet is turned on.

The number of differences in the hardware itself makes me think that there is more of a difference between the two tablets than we think.

At this point, I'm not sure i even want a custom rom. xposed and gravity box give me most of what i need. I'd love an upgrade to KK, but honestly, this does pretty much all i need it to.

I used this method to root:

root w/o pc

I got the kingroot apk http://www.kingroot.net/down#master
Ran it rebooted ran rootchecker it verified I had # so I downloaded SuperSu (chain fires)
Let it update the binary rebooted again.
Then got cleanmaster and zaped all unwanted bloat.
Hopefully this helps ppl who can't get to a windows PC or just have problems with long tutz.

it installed a chinese app similar to Clean Master. I believe I can uninstall it, but want to be sure i can.
