t9 vs p4

Hi, i just to know if somebody can tell if the pipo P4 is better in performance than the pipo T9? what is the real antutu benchmark score of the 2 tablets? and someone has tested the cube talk 9x u65gt? does the cube have better performance and antutu score? And have you try the gps in the new pipo tablets?
Also, Thanks Randy for your roms, I own a pipo m7pro, and your roms makes it the best tablet I have, I wish there is a gps fix for the rr3.4, but thank's a lot

I have not done anything to enable exfat in the ROM. I don't think the kernel supports it.

Exfat support?

Hi to everyone! Is there exfat supported by the kernel with this rom? got the stock kitkat rooted on my t9 at the moment and tried to get exfat with stickmount but obviously i'm doing s.th. wrong

thx

This method work great ..... I've done it on my pipo T9
Flashed my imei with, then wipe data/factory reset and my imei was still there
So I'm 100% sure it work with T9 and all MTK chipset u just need the right baseband file

Now abt

Flashing KK with format all/DL option seem dangerous without make a backup of your nvram.bin
Since you can flash it back with sp flag tools by editing your scater.text, so it should be hard coded too

If you erase your nvram.bin without a backup, your T9 will have a dummy nvram.bin ..... I'm not sure ending with a dummy nvram.bin is good or not ....
But the first method will help you to flash hardcoded your own imei if you save if on paper since there no imei copy on t9 nor in t9 packaging
Your can generate your own imei, but in France list highly prohibed. That why I'm generally cautious with imei stuff

So my advice :
Write down your imei and made backup of your nvram.bin before play with your T9 and with MTK stuff

Thanks for the discovery....this will come in very handy.

This is all a learning process for all of us.

Please post any results you get from testing this method. If it works well, I think this deserves it's own thread so people can easily refer to it. I'll even make it a sticky thread.

all the method imei describe is not permanent ... if you wipe data imei is lost again

here is the method for hardcode imei

____/\_____ MAUI META by MediaTek....
.
finally managed to permanently fix the erasing problem of imei on flashing new ROM or factory resetting phone ....
.
mobile uncle tools or... engineering mode temporarily fixes the imei problem by pasting what's known as "Soft Imei" and which tends to get erased on formatting or flashing new ROM .
.
also in KitKat the security is so optimized that engineering mode doesn't accepts the imei
.
now this method I'm sharing with you permanently fixes the problem of accidentally formatting NVRAM using sp tools.

Try to root again using Root Genius it will solve the Lucky Patcher and Titanium
Backup problem. With SuperSu its like it is not rooted properly, I don't know why though.

About IMEI I used MTK droid tools to restore it.It is working fine now.

ok let try root genius ...
MTK droid tools u mean restore nvram.bin ?? i dont have my own backup


edit

ok root genius seem solve some problem
for MTK droid tools it seem u cant restore imei without backup of your own nvram.bin

i will try to flash back to JB rom, too much problem with KK rom for now

[digitron]

For me this ROM is fast but not stable

I have wifi problem.... Titanium backup is not working, and lucky patcher too ....

With imei problem now, i start to miss JB very stable ROM....

I start to hate Mtk device.... No more MTK device for me...... Time to resell this tablet very soon

Stick with it I had similar problems when moving to KitKat with previous tablets and its only early days yet. I think its a very good first rooted ROM and is more stable than some manufacturer retail ROMs try archos Tablets if you like to get frustrated I have no WiFi problems?

Just wondering my 12meg camera is out of focus with this new ROM is this a problem with the new ROM or my tablet as the 2meg facing camera is in focus?

Drivers

Just a heads up I find that the drivers will not work on Win 8.1 due to a Microsoft security change but will work on Win 7 with no problems. I also had the same problem the first time I tried to flash the new ROM.

With the PDAnet app closed, the flash tool should work.

Killed PDAnet.
Powered off the tablet.
Got a quick charging screen, then it flashed to the blue battery.
Then the screen goes off.
Nothing happens...
If I tap the power button, I can see the big blue battery icon [fully-ish charged].

Nothing happening with "Smart Phone Flash Tool"
Still have not hit "Stop".
Should I?

....
What version of windows did you use? also 64 or 86?
I'm on Windows 8.1 64
