Pipo M9 Max RileyROM 2.1

And please, keep old pcb owners in mind

If this ROM tests out as a good one, I'll port the drivers for Old PCB for you. Stay tuned.

Randy, I' sorry. under which menu is the battery data erase thingy?all I can find is wipe dalvik cache and factory reset...

Sometimes when you change kernels, the battery reporting data gets corrupted. If you go into CWM Recovery and erase the battery data this might solve the problem.

Also, If you flash the entire ROM with the stock kernel first...then go back and flash the OC kernel, you might have better results.

That's two things you might try.

Another thing is to try flashing a stock firmware (the older the better) and let your battery charge to 100 percent...then flash the custom ROM. That seems to help some people having battery problems.

It should be under the advanced menu.

flashing stock rom from clockwordmod

Can anyone tell me how to flash stock m9 rom from clockworkmod. When I try install from sd card it aborts every time (signature verification failed)

I try to cwm recovery, but always stucks on kernel

cwm version 6 0 3 1 modified androtab version

You must flash the ROM with a PC using the RKBatchTool.

The reason is that parameter files change between ROM's, and the partition sizes for system and kernel have to accommodate the space needed. That's especially true if you have used an alternate parameter file for increased user app space.

You can use CWM to flash the SAME ROM back to your tablet if you have a problem, because there is no need to change the partitions..unless you want to increase the user app space...which again, requires a PC to flash.

Another reason that CWM isn't a real solution is that many stock ROM's aren't set up to flash using CWM...there's a special template that is required (which include in my ROM kit).

Hope that helps.

BTW, has anyone tried v2.2? Any feedback? I'm getting ready to make a final version and post a new thread.

[boreus]

Tnx for the info man. I asked about cwm installation because it's only thing i have left really. Flashing, or recovery from rockchip firmware.com didn't work, and now i can only boot to cwm.

I used your template, copied files into root of the zip installed from sdcard, factory reset i did it before and i did it after flashing alternatively. It finishes ok but it still loads to cwm no matter what i do. Maybe I have wrong version of cwm I have one downloaded from androtab.info.

Could you describe steps in short please i missed something it seems.

Also is it posibble for pc to recognize tablet in such CWM mode as m9? PC can see sd cards when i use storage mount in cwm, but not recognizes device as M9,but as rk30sdk (something).




if i could try some other drivers that would make pc recognize the tablet so i could reboot to flash with propper windows tools.

This is for the M9 with new PCB.

I just finished the Old PCB version, but waiting for it to upload.

This is NOT for the M9 Pro.

I'm talking about v2.2 which will have a new thread started as soon as I get both versions uploaded.

M9 is what i was talking about

The tablet actually belongs to my colleague who purchased it before me, its M9 prurchased about 2 months ago, right now i flashed fine and booted with the M9 Max 2.0 but the touch screen does not work.

How can i check the pcb version?

[P.A]

I'm talking about v2.2 which will have a new thread started as soon as I get both versions uploaded.

Please ask dnkn he has some new improved kernels that we are testing now, He also plan to release them tomorrow. Maybe you could include them. They contains fix for battery charging, better battery usage prediction and most optimal voltage and frequencies level for most users for battery efficient usage while increased performance, also new governors like hotplug and fix for 3G modems.

[rrileypm]

Sounds good. I'll just post the ROM and let Dnkn share his kernels on the new thread when he gets time.

ryleyrom 2.2

what the difference on 2.2 ??? thanks

[rrileypm]

v.2.2 is based on a firmware dated 10-29-13.

I don't get change logs with ANY Pipo firmware releases...so I'm not aware of specific changes...sorry.

Theoretically, it would include a fix to a problem they encountered with their previous firmware. The file name indicates it is a "pure" firmware...meaning that Pipo did not include any extra apps or bloatware, including absence of the Pipo Launcher apps. It's just a straight, clean firmware.

What I did was to remove more of the usual Chinese widget apps and Chinese Store/Communication apps to clean it up just a little bit more.

I have not tested it, because I don't have an M9.

It's still uploading............................

P.A., that's excellent news. Would it be possible to flash those kernels in version 2.1? Also, can we flash them using the finless tool or is a different software required?

Randy, I'm afraid there's no battery data erase option under any menu. I've checked and double checked...
