Polatab Elite Q9.7 ROM

[Mitch2k14]

Hi,

Does anyone know what ROM might work in this tablet.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cheapest-Android-Retina-Display-2048/dp/B00JAD1EQC

I'm not sure who the real maker is as I can find nothing about PolaTab on Internet, maybe just a white box OEM tablet.
I thought it was very similar to CEROS Revolution and tried to use the new KitKat 4.4.2 ROM, but now it doesn't boot. I can still get it into recovery mode and download new firmware, but am not sure what ROM to try.
Any ideas ?
Thanks,

Hi,

I used the RK Batch Tool v1.7
and restored this ROM image

http://www.mediafire.com/download/u19q118mq6bbred/q9s_422_netflix_update_20140524.img

Booted up and is now running fine.

There seems to be a lot of variation even amongst the same Tablet, maybe touch controller chip, LCD controller chip, Wifi etc

Hi,

Make sure the Tablet is charged up or just leave it plugged into power then hold down the button next to the power (back <-) on button, then press power on while holding down the back button for ~5 secs.
You might see screen flicker or very faint back light come on. This should put the Tablet into recovery mode.

Connect usb cable from PC to tablet. If tablet is in recovery mode Windows will search for a driver for the rockchipusb, this is included with RK Batch Tool.

You should then see the Tablet appear in Windows device manager "Class for rockusb devices" "Rockusb Device"
If you see it appear as an Android device then it's not in recovery mode and RK Batch Tool will not detect it, so try again.

You might need to try this a few times before it appears or use a paper clip to reset the tablet whilst holding down the back button. Seemed a bit hit and miss when I tried it but eventually you should see Windows detect a new device and search for the driver.
At this point you will need to point it at the correct Rockusb driver for the version of Windows you are using e.g. x86 x64, Win7 etc etc.
Then start RK batch tool and it should see the Tablet, a green square appears with "1" to indicate it has found the Tablet.
Now load the firmware image into RK Batch Tool and click the restore button.
It will now erase, flash and verify the firmware and Tablet should reboot into Android OS.

Theres a pdf included with some of the Riley ROMs that also explains how to install the Rockusb driver.

Good luck
