Cube Talk 9x U65GT ROM based on Cube's V 1.8 firmware of 4 July 2014

[stuarts]

The external sdcard fix from cwm recovery works for me and I can backup to external sdcard.

Brian, there are so many logical paths to the external sd. Which one were you using?

I was trying to use /storage/sdcard1.

I notice there is also /mnt/sdcard2 and /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1.

Using adb sideload to flash rom?

Thanks for the reply concerning Windows 7 drivers. I have Windows 7 only at work.

I'm at home, where I have Linux (Mint Xfce).
I'm able to connect with adb when I activate adb sideload through recovery.
Or when I connect the tablet as MTP.
In adb sideload mode, I've tried this to flash Lepi's recovery:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_2700_LEPI_white.img
I get this:
sending 'recovery' (8226 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.470s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote:
partition 'recovery' not support flash)
finished. total time: 0.480s
And if I do this:
fastboot oem unlock
...
(bootloader) Start unlock flow

FAILED (remote:
Unlock failed - Err:0x7000
)
finished. total time: 15.638s

What can I do?
NB: My tablet is not rooted. I that the problem? How can I root it?
Thanks for your help!

Yes it should be possible to select both of those for EBR1 and EBR2 and flash via the flashtool.

No platform.xml is not included in the ROM.

Yes, I have already flash your firmware not waiting for an answer. Great job, Brian! Many thanks to you for modification.
In the ART mode AnTuTu test showed less than Dalvik mode. Strange.
I think that this test not objective.
File platform.xml I myself have been edited, wrote earlier. Now Titanium retains backup to external SD card.
Thank you.

I notice there is also /mnt/sdcard2 and /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1.

I'm using /storage/sdcard1/TitaniumBackup

I just created a TitaniumBackup folder on the sdcard then from tb selected preferences, backup folder location and then detect.

I'm also using tb pro, though I don't think this should make a difference.

I don't trust the antutu score at all. The mt9392 based phones all seem to score about 30k. I have a thl t11 that has similar performance, so I find the idea of the cube being 33% faster difficult to believe. I ran antutu side by side on my phone and tablet. The phone finished first but scored less.

Has anyone tried switching to ART runtime? Seems good to me.

I tried, and as someone pointed it out in the previous version thread, first boot after choosing art was normal, nothing happenned, and art is shown in dev settings.
On my phone when i set runtime to art on next reboot takes much linger than normal.

As i don't see any difference, how to know for sure we are actualy using art ?

[900supersport]

I wondering that too, I've tried

find / -name *.elf

and get no matches so suspect its not implemented.

U65GT_V1.8_20140704_900ss for recjvery

Respected,Brian, but you can make an option firmware U65GT_V1.8_20140704_900ss for SD card as update.zip to flash ROM via recovery? It's not difficult for such good masters as 900supersport?
Thank you.

[8140david]

That would be great!

Otherwise, in Linux, can I use this script to install the rom, once connected in recovery mode?

NB: The tab is not rooted (I don't know how to root it) and I don't have access to su in the shell of the tab (accessed through adb).

So this contains the official firmware, right?
Just to understand: why do you mention it? To have a potential back-up? Or for another reason?

[900supersport]

I suspect this version can update from recovery. Useful if you do not have access to an windows box with the correct drivers.

Thanks to both, then!
Does it mean one could replace parts of it with parts for your own, modified rom?
(As you must have guessed, I 'm not familiar wih all this.)
I have very limited access to Windows (only at work), and so indeed, it would be much easier for me if I could proceed on Linux (or in recovery mode, using a rom put on the SD card).

No, it is not necessary to update the firmware of Brian. She is self-sufficient and better official.
Firmware from Brian always better official (Stock).


I offered to official firmware for those who want to modify it yourself. This is another form update. If you do not have that option, I apologize for the information again.

No problem at all!!!
I just wanted to understand.
Thanks for all
