hello,hello...is there anybody in there?

I will look into making a CWM today. I seem to remember there was a problem making the CWM with the tool I normally use, so I may have to do some manual tweaking. Stay tuned.

I'm entering here every day,so i will watch for your work
Anyway,i don't thik that i will have the tablet in less than 2 weeks.
Also,from the posts here i don't really get it: v1.1 is working good or not?

As I've mentioned before in this thread, I'm unable to make a CWM Recovery for this tablet with the files I currently have. The MTK Droid Tools app has a way to make CWM Recovery from the files...or directly from the tablet connected via USB. Each time I use the app to make the CWM with the files, I get the same error posted earlier in this thread.

My suggestion is for someone with one of these tablets to attempt to make a CWM Recovery with MTK Droid Tools by using the USB method and see if you get the same error. There is something about the way recovery.img is configured that prevents the tool from extracting.

I'm able to unpack recovery.img manually...but I'm still trying to figure out how to manually make the CWM. Stay tuned.

@rrileypm:I tried today to open your rom,but i receive the error msg as u can see in the photo.
Unpacking the archive was ok and if i load from original rom all it's ok.
Any help will be apreciated.

[rrileypm]

Open the checksum.ini file and change the value to zero.

Working now,but if i press "download" it's asking me to load a download agent.What do i have to choose?
Also,i don't understand how do i do this point:
4. Select the desired EBR1 and EBR2 files for the user app space size you wish to create. They MUST MATCH.
I can't select a thing,everithing is loaded from scatter file.

[rrileypm]

When you load the scatter file, it populates all of the default files as if you are flashing the stock firmware.

If you want to select a custom EBR set, click in the "location" field on the EBR1 line a browse window will pop up in the RileyROM folder. Select the EBR1 file with the number associated with the desired user app space. Do the same thing with the EBR2 file making sure you select the EBR2 file with the same number.

ok,that part i get it.
And what about loading an DA?

[rrileypm]

I'm not sure what you mean by DA

[s@sed]

I'm not sure what you mean by DA

I think: Download Agent

[Klaus69]

I think: Download Agent

right

[Klaus69]

So, this is what i'm talking about.
After i load the scatter,if i press download,i receive this message.
I don't know what to add there.

[rrileypm]

That's interesting. The download agent usually loads by default when you start the tool. It has to be one of the files in the main folder. You might browse for it.

I'm mobile...and starting a 12 hour shift in the Emergency Room...so I can't trace it down for you...and I don't know off the top of my head which file it is.
