X98 Plus (A5C8) – Dual System -Android5.1-V1.05 firmware version: first release;

[mooggle]

hi you all.

I own the A6C7 dual OS model. It has a 2mp camera instead of the 5mp camera on the rear. That’s the only difference I found so far.

I’ve noticed that they only release updates for the A5C8 model (as far as I read from topics). Any body knows why.? Or am I mistaken????

 

[Domi]

Teclast site for update
Just enter your model!

hello who see any improvements ? facebook and clash of clans working now ?

[Jacques]

I don’t understand: you are talking about “Android files v1.07 for A5C8”

Is this another distribution of Android 5.1, not the Mirek ?

Because I use “mirek190_v3_20160418”.

And you mention also “X98 Plus (A5C8) – Dual System -Android5.1-V1.05 firmware version: first release.”

Could you explain please ?

Thank you !

Anyone know how to root it?

[Verdeler]

@Jacques

This is an update for the 1.05 stock rom, if you flash it you will loose root access. I do not know what happens, if you update the Mirek rom, but I think its not a good idea.

@Zedaycee

• download adb fastboot tools
• download the attached SuperSU file
• download TWRP recovery for A5C8
• copy SuperSU file to your internal SD card
• start the Boot Loader mode
• use fastboot to flash the TWRP recovery ( if not done before 😉 )
• boot into TWRP Recovery mode
• install the SuperSU Zip file
• reboot system
• device should be rooted again

 

To download the required files please follow the links below.

PS: Maybe one of the admins can delete the attached files, since I was not able to upload all necessary files.

ADB+Recovery+SuperSU+Readme

But if we put the firmware file into the Mirek Folder? And we flah by PC,does  it will work?

[Koham]

Is it possible to obtain root permissions with this rom ?

Did anyone succeed flashing this on dual boot device, specifically with the latest Geekbuying firmware installed?

I can flash the Android update 1.05 of Geekbuying with Intel Flash Tool but not this update, storage layout related?

 

Edit: nevermind, I manually flashed system.img and boot.img with fastboot.

I succeeded updating my tablet with the v1.07 firmware manually.

If you like me don’t play with Android firmware flashing every day then after installing Intel Flash Tool or the Phone Flash Tool and the related drivers then try at first updating your Android system with the GUI tool (Intel Flash Tool or Phone Flash Tool), the setting USB debugging and USB MTP (enabled by default) will need to be enabled.

If it doesn’t work then you can manually flash the firmware with fastboot command (AFAIK it is installed with one of the mentioned tools above).

1. From the file Explorer on your Windows PC when hovering above v1.07 firmware folder use shift + right click to open the context menu and you’ll be able to choose to open command prompt at the folder path.

2. Now you can enter the command “adb reboot bootloader” to reboot the tablet and enter fastboot mode. When the tablet reboot just choose Android from the boot menu and it will go to fastboot mode. Also I believe it’s possible even without running this command to enter the fastboot mode by pressing power+vol up after choosing Android from the boot menu.

3. Now you can start flashing the image files to the tablet with fastboot, I believe the bare minimum are boot.img (kernel and ramdisk) and system.img (the Android OS) but I also flashed the bootloader. At least in comparison to v1.05 the only other different files are installer.efi and loader.efi which I haven’t figured what to do with and they are not part of the update procedure in installer.cmd.

3.a. To flash the system enter the command “fastboot flash system system.img”.

3.b. To flash boot enter the command “fastboot flash boot boot.img”.

3.c And finally to flash the bootloader enter the command “fastboot flash bootloader bootloader”.

4. Now you can boot the device by pressing the power button.

Be advised that this might only work if you have Android firmware v1.05 installed. If you’ve got another version then you might need to flash the other files also. I used diff to binary compare the other files.
