Search Results for 'usb wifi'

Allright, I’ll look into it, thanks Chris. Have fun in NZ!

I haven’t really had a chance to play around with it a lot because I screwed up on the Windows install, but my first impression was pretty good, especially with that pricetag.

@antony-white Well, the way I restored the drivers was I just went to the device manager and updated them one by one (hooked up an USB hub via the OTG and used a USB keyboard because the touchscreen and wifi were not working at that point). But I guess using Double Driver is the better option.

Would be great if you could show a couple pictures of the inside, I’d appreciate that, especially upgrading the battery might be a worthy investment along the line.

I think I’ll wait another week or so and if there is no news I’ll be hard pressed not to cancel my Hi10 order and go with another tablet. Really do want STD USB ports as I want to run an extra USB wifi adapter for some “projects”.

Second that notion, I cannot believe i am not the only person in this boat! I have just received mine and didnt trust the standard install for fears of unwanted spyware/malware so out of the box i tried to do a restore………..long and short it bootlooped permanently. So I did fresh install  and cleared partitions, got it to install and now cant get ANY of the drivers to install. If you could tell me which drivers you used it would be massively appreciated. Thinking if i can at least get wifi can then get windows to search for them. FYI I am a bit of a tinkerer and had taken the back off this too, most notably because the usb on the device is TERRIBLE it is clearly a faulty connector but the cost of posting back  makes it prohibitive for me to claim under warranty.

Taking the back off revealed there is NO heatsink on this at all. There is a stick (yes a black sticker) with a small piece of wire foam doing a half hearted job of connecting to silver foil on the case. So do not be surprised to see massive throttling on the unit. If wanted happy to take picture and show inside. I have also de-soldered the battery and installed a 4000mAh variant. I had a quick look on ebay and fairly sure a 6000mAh would also fit in what is quite a large space.

It is the international version and coming with a multi language Windows 10 and Android 5.1 with all google services preinstalled. So I guess it is the international version. I am using a 128GB Slilicon Power Class 10 USH-I Micro sd card with it. Also tested Sandisk 64GB USB 3.0-OTG dual Flash drive and that worked fine without any issue. Although I have not put the tablet on much load, the experience is very nice and the Tablet is not getting much worm, even after long period of use, mainly browsing and YouTube 1080p streaming. However, noticing that WiFi speed is not that great with this, and it sometime gets disconnected when the Bluetooth is in use. Can you guys suggest a Keyboard, preferably a BT one, with touch pad with it.

Hi Chris and everyone! I bought my chuwi vi10, then i installed windows 10 via usb (erase everything). But now i have a driver issue. The ones you post didn’t worked for me. I think my hardware is different: first i have a broadcom wifi. My number is VI10Q32G22151000423. Only wifi is working (i have it from an other device) but the audio,  touchscreen doesn’t work. I don,’t have the intel graphic settings neither. I saw the drivers from chuwi’s website but how does they work? I have to extract them were?? I hope you will help me, for one week now i am struggling every day after school to make things work… Thanks!!

I haven’t mine opened up yet. How much space is there up top where the plastic space in case is ?

Thinking of installing a small  5 GHz WiFi module to this spare USB header.

You can get pretty small USB ones and if broken down to remove case and USB plug, i’m guessing the PCB in these would be tiny enough to slip in somewhere and wire directly to this header.

Inbuilt 2.4 GHz  basically renders Bluetooth useless due to interference, so WiFi at 5 GHz would be good mod if feasible.

But for best signal, it would be need to be up top in plastic section to get through shielded case.

Ordered the cube iwork8 ultimate through gearbest at US$79.99 and finally received it. Pictures below

hmmm, it has been opened.

Warranty card, manual, sticker, VIP card to extend warranty from 12 months to 14 months if you add them on wechat or something. The tablet comes with the screen protector on it which…started peeling from the side after some usage, fingerprint magnet too. Microusb cable and otg cable included as well.

Windows 10 Pro activated. It is non-laminating so the gap is very visible if you look out for it, otherwise, the screen is pretty great! Viewing angles are fantastic imo

Originally 18.7gb of space left but after fiddling with region and language settings, I was left with 17.7gb. Oops. 64gb Samsung Evo microsd works on it with no issue.

This shows the version of windows 10 installed. Windows updates is somehow disabled on the tablet.

There were complaints of lousy wifi on the chinese forums so I tested the wifi.

This is the wifi speed in my room with the door closed. Router is in the living room about 5 metres away. Comparison with note5 and ipad air 2.

Opening the door improves the wifi speed.

Tablet right over the router. Interestingly, I was able to hit 40mbps on download speed before it nosedives to 8mbps.

Yet to test the battery life as it came with 15% battery left. Tried connecting bluetooth keyboard and mouse to the tablet and only the mouse worked. The keyboard did work with android, windows 8.1.

Speed of Emmc speed followed by microsd

GeekBench 3 scores: 762 Single core and 2190 multi-core

Dear All,

I was wondering if you can solve some questions I have and I did not manage to get a clear idea from the forum. I have been looking this forum for a long time but it is the first time I write something.

I have to say that I am both impressed and disappointed by this tablet (my first experience with a tablet of my own), and I am trying to make the best out of it. I am focusing mostly on the Windows 10 side, I do not use Android much. My questions for my K9C6 model are,

1. What is the difference between doing a Windows factory reset and a clean install from a bootable USB? Which one would you suggest and what are the advantages/ disadvantages?
2. I am not having any problems with missing eMMC, nevertheless shall I update to the new BIOS or not? Will it make any difference in speed or power? Any improvements? Is there any way to update the BIOS without an external keyboard as I have none?
3. I am looking for a OTG charger, I know there is a forum with this but it is really confusing with all the answers and links to follow up if something works or not (a comment “it mostly works” doesn’t actually give me the idea if it really works or not). I would also like this OTG charger device to have an SD Card reader (not micro). Do you have anything to suggest?
4. When I add an extra language to the pop up touch screen keyboard, it seems that it breaks the “hold touch extra letters/ numbers pop up” function (or whatever you would call it when you touch a button and wait until you get the pop up with the extra characters). It works on the first letter/ number, it does not work on the immediate after that, but it works again the third time, not the forth but yes with the fifth etc. I have to select the extra character, press a random one, delete the random and then select the next extra character (I hope I am not confusing you).
5. Sometimes when it goes to sleep, it disconnects from the WiFi and when I turn on the tablet again, it will not connect unless I restart the tablet. Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
6. From time to time almost everything seem to go wrong (not lunching apps for example) and I need to restart the tablet which works fine until the next time… Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
7. If you have any further suggestions on drivers/ apps/ tweeks/ tricks/ etc, please let me know. I already followed all suggestions regarding battery and used the Surface 3 audio drivers, huge improvement.

Thank you all in advance!

For the price is great I bought as a “cheap” test to see if touch screen tablets with win10 could be used as a primary business laptop and it was a very nice surprise, now we are going to buy microsoft surfaces pro 4 , as cube screen ratio is not too good for office use.

Thanks for your impressions

Which US3.0 hub are you using?

Thanks

Thank you Daniel, the rooting app works perfectly!

All I did was installed Intel ADB driver for Android, enabled USB debugging in Developer’s options, hooked up tablet to Windows PC, ran X98_PRO_5.1.1root.exe, following the instruction in English, and I got root.

Updated SuperSU through wifi, no error message.

When I got first got this tablet, android was working fine but Windows 10 was flashing after signing in. Surprisingly, the slide down to turn off device still works, I can sign in wifi, and anything else you can do on the front page. I decided to go to BIOS and I think I activated DNX fastboot mode. Now, the usb otg doesn’t work, so I can use a keyboard to get into BIOS again to deactivate it. Now android is always on the “Android is starting” page optimizing apps… than reboot and does the same thing again.

Can anyone tell me if there is any way to revert the BIOS, way to get into BIOS, or do a clean wipe of the tablet and only installing Windows back on, preferably Windows 8 if possible. If I can revert the fastboot, can someone help me fix Windows? Drivers, faulty copy of Windows?

Hello, i’m currently indecisive which Core M i should buy:

Teclast X2 Pro

Cube i7 (non stylus)

Acer Aspire 11V

The Teclast should probably cost me about 390€, the Cube 420€. The Acer cost a bit more: 600€ but has also a Keyboard with full sized USB3 and Dualband WiFi which i can order directly from Amazon in my Country. Is it worth additional charge or should i buy one of the Chinese tablets?

[Frosty]

Ahhhhh … PROGRESS!!!

I spent quite a while re-reading in this thread:

http://techtablets.com/forums/topic/vi10-s165c-drivers-available-from-chuwi/

Noticed this download, where someone helpfully made available the Broadcom drivers from their working install:

http://techtablets.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/S165-19-10-2015-19-30-57.zip

Downloaded those drivers.  Copied the Broadcom folder over to the tablet (via my USB-Ethernet dongle).  Navigated into the driver folders via Windows Explorer and found the setup file (OEM22.INF), right-click, Install, ignore the warning.  Reboot.  Loaded up Device Manager and AT LAST I can see a functional WiFi Adapter in the Networking section of Device Manager.

RESULT:  after connecting and entering my password, I now have working WiFi at last.

Now I just need to find the magic sauce to get Touch drivers to be recognised.
