[omid]

1-Download Oficial frimware:http://dl.apktools.ir/frimware/frimware%20Andorid%20Cube%20Air.rar
2-Extract the Firmware ROM and Replace the file gpt.bin by which I uploaded. Please decompress the rar.
3-Flash the ROM.
4-That’s it. Enjoy.

Note:
This solution will work on any 32 GB tablet. the trick is the gpt.bin file.
After the operation, be patient because the tablet will restart several times, then wait
Charge your tablet at least 60%
Note the responsibility and consequences of this is at your own risk

So far it did not work for me since my device isn´t showing in flashtool lite.

I set the tablet in dmx mode with both vol buttons but it is not detected of my pc.

Can you advice how you exactly used the flashtool and when it did get recogized ?

Also i downloaded the flashtool from intels official page, should i use another flashtool versioN ?

Hello dear friend, you must go to the bootloader.no dnx mode…
To do so, turn off the device, hold down the Volume Down and Power came when the logo and select Android release immediately hold Volume Down key to enter bootloader

I don´t have the android partitions to start from :/

I have successfully removed Windows 10 with following steps:

• set intel rules in /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules (Linux PC ) or install USB drivers (Windows PC – not tested)

# Intel vendor ID for ADB
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, ATTRS{idVendor}==”8087″, MODE=”0666″

#intel vendor ID for SOC device
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, ATTRS{idVendor}==”8086″, MODE=”0666″

(note perhaps only 8087 is needed)

• install adb (Android SDK) or sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot (Linux Ubuntu – have not tried)
• download Intel® Platform Flash Tool Lite for Linux (or Windows) https://software.intel.com/en-us/installing-firmware-with-flash-tool-linux
• boot to Android, enable Developer settings (clicking ‘Settings -> About tablet -> Build number’ several times) and USB Debugging (‘Settings -> Developer options -> USB debugging’)
• connect USB to tablet, let USB debugging to activate
• Go to bootloader – issue on your PC from command line  ‘adb reboot bootloader’
• Start Intel® Platform Flash Tool Lite  (on Linux PC start with command ‘platformflashtool’ or launcher Icon, on Windows start with launcher Icon)
• select ‘flash.json’ from Android only firmware (do not forget to change the gpt.bin before), configuration ‘blank’ (is automatically selected, no need to change)
• flash, after flash it will reboot, wait till Android starts (there is only Android to select during boot)
• switch language (to English) if needed
• free storage is 25 GB now  (thanks to omid)

After that I have installed TWRP (http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/377298-recovery-twrp-302-0-for-cube-iwork8-ultimate-iwork8-air/) and dm-verify and root (http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/377299-howto-disable-dm-verity-root-navigation-bar-mod-for-cube-iwork8-ultimate-iwork8-air/) by KonstaT (thanks)

The above worked great. However, I had to shorten the path of where the flash files are stored for it to work.

Thanks!

After a lot of sweat with Baidu’s cloud system I’m almost done in downloading the latest 8 GB package indicated in http://www.cube-tablet.com/download/ [Cube iWork8 Air (i1TF) Dual OS installation ROM 2016-06-29].
I will upload it on some “less uncomfortable place“, so to say, and eventually extract and upload an Android-only version.

So, here it is:

Cube iWork8 Air (i1TF) Dual OS installation ROM 2016-06-29 (7.57 GB) – https://goo.gl/bTGQt4

[Anonymous]

And finally, the Android only version. I tested it mysfelf on my fresh new iWork8 Air and everything went ok. Now I have and Android only tablet.

It includes the Intel Flash tool and USB drivers.
