Tablet review (including disassembly)

[Alongwolf]

Order fed up with the Chinese superuser. If you delete it and set it to normal (SuperSU, for example) - no superuser rights are granted to anyone. When the return of the Chinese - everything is normal.
Some time ago, in the same way, I ran the DNS tablet E78 - there the VROOT program next to the Chinese put another superuser (KingUser), which is in English.
Here it is side by side with the Chinese works. Put it in the Tricolor - all requests were in English. lang!
I post it here, if anyone should:

Posted on 12/15/2014, 20:33:

By the way - anyone, maybe in the course - is there a progenitor counterpart for this tablet?
Here, for example, DNS E78 has a parent twin model Skyworth S71.
How about this one?

What is the battery capacity?
In the description, 2800, and the software shows 1000 mAh (CPU-Z and others)

[Alongwolf]

[email protected], 15:20

The software shows 1000 mAh

Not enough shows your software. The real work time with wi-fi enabled and playing on the Sony PS1 emulator is about 3.5-4 hours. At 1 Ah, he would not stand it.
I judge on my phone, which has 1.5 Ah and he, under equal conditions, died after 1.5-2 hours.
Accordingly, the manufacturer does not deceive.

The film with the inscriptions did not tear off and washed with liquid for nails. The result was a factory film. Logo is erased badly and letters at a time.

[s3648]

Hello! I have the same tablet. External reptile modems do not understand, but the mouse and flash drive through the adapter work. It was upset that bluevpn does not work in a fucking whale, but I wanted to release it via the old Nokia 3g ... Nobody knows the solution, maybe you can lower the version of the android, I'm in this noob ...

What for? Under this film factory film pasted.

When installing an SD card, applications are not installed on it, but in the built-in

"app2sd" to help you!
Or root and "Link to sd". A useful thing, by the way!

Interesting - no one has found a clone or a replica of our tablet from the Chinese?

[Hronos2t]

What is film on film? Like one.

Have you ever glued films on smartphones for example?
there is a 3-layer film.
1 layer - with a label (1) - is removed. The rest of the neatly pasted on the screen. In our case, this has already been done at the factory.
Layer 2 is the film that should remain.
Layer 3 - with a label (2) - is removed. Only the desired film remains on the screen.

In general, I didn’t stick anything onto the tablet, there is already a Tricolor glued with LOGO, which I washed because there is no place to buy another.
So there seems to be one screen behind it. Or not?

- Not this way.
Behind the first with logos is the second, transparent. This is clearly visible at the camera and can be seen at the edges of the glass.

Everywhere they write only about the fstab file, but it simply does not exist.

Here was reading?

As far as I understand, it is necessary to perform memory redefinition through the kernel. His image needs to be pulled out of the device, then reassembled with the necessary corrections and poured back.
The problem is that the chances of success are 50/50.

The only more or less reasonable solution (not a panacea, but still) is to installlink2sd.
I have already set myself. My SDcard0 remained at 300 MB, but the data of the applications I selected and sent out are on add. section of the removable card.
At least a little, but the device became easier in terms of busy memory.
I chose all heavy applications - Chrome, Navitel, etc. etc.

Yes you were right 2 films, divided by a needle.

Here is a link to the topic:Tyts.
Everything is chewed up there. If the patched program does not mount the partition, then it must be removed and placed from the market with advertising, mounted partition and then later patches lacquer patcher to kill the advertisement and make the program a full version.
This method has a drawback - if the card is of a low class, then the applications sent to it will slow down ...
It is better to create a section for referenced applications in the ext2 file system, since it is not logged, and, therefore, will not kill the card so quickly.

Navitel downloaded on a third-party resource. Hacked version. All questions in PM. I took the cards at Navitel's office through a friend's account. Write in a personal - I will drop on Google drive and give a link.

If there is a number of Linux on a computer, then on it through gparted everything is very easy to create without formatting the card, you can also create a swap section to expand the RAM.
I myself have not tried it on the tablet yet. On the phone, in which the RAM is only 512MB. has long been working swap. A good thing, if properly set up.

Installed. Only, she does not see the SDcard1. Writes "The second section is not found" and transfers to the internal memory. = (

[Alongwolf]

Hronos2t

And you created an extra. section on the card? It is better, of course, to make it ext2, ext3 or ext4, but the program in recent versions already understands fat32.
In short, you need to create an additional section on the card for installing applications (preferably on the Linux file system) in the link2sd thread there is a link to the program that creates partitions directly on the tablet without a computer.
Then we feed this new section to the program link2sd and it mounts it, reloads the tablet and you can already refer the applications to the SD card. Do not transfer, namely refer.
