Teclast X98 pro Working GREAT!

[Joel]

I thought since I would keep updating my fixes with the X98 Pro – I started a new Topic.  So now everything is in one TOPIC.

My first week’s impression with the X98 Pro…I have found that the WINDOWS 10 part of the tablet is really good.

Most important of all (especially before troubleshooting and problem that may come up) is to UPDATE the system with all Windows updates.  Then I made a backup of the entire drive (one backup automatically includes ANDROID and Windows) with Easeus from the window side of the tablet and now I am ready for some extreme mods.  I went through windows and:
1. Turned off windows animations.
2. Lowered IE’s cache to 50 MEGS.
3. Turned off Indexing.
4. Turned on SYSTEM RESTORE!
5.  Installed Double Driver and backed up all the drivers’ backup – with a copy into Microsoft One Drive cloud.
6. Installed ccleaner…and cleaned up Temp files and the Registry.
7.  Windows 10 had updated with a major system update – so after everything ran a few days, I deleted the first system as it took up too much disk space.
8. Just to try it out so I may save battery power, I installed ThrottleStop to play around with and TURN OFF TURBO MODE when not playing games.  I may eventually just turn off TURBO MODE in the BIOS and uninstall ThrottleStop.
9.  I ran Malwarebytes and found what one forum member thought were 3 viruses – but I think they aren’t viruses at all, just a way to initially clean up the system.
10.  I may perform the overheating mod…not sure yet.
11.  Turn off sync with Microsoft’s One Drive.
12.  Run Easeus backup again.

The ANDROID section of the computer is way too much Chinese and no Play Store.  But hey…if I can have a working FAST Windows 10 tablet…why go crazy maintaining the ANDROID section too – Windows is plenty good enough.  Now that I have a backup. I can fool around all I want. So I may install the Merck mod and see how Android works…but I think I would rather not root the tablet, I believe it’s better to leave it stock.

So – the Teclast X98 Pro – is very nice.  I read someone said the speakers are bad…I think the speakers are GREAT and loud, and nice fidelity!  The piano is ringing with frequency.  Better than my LG G3 phone…but not any better than my RIVA TURBO X bluetooth wonder.

Would I buy the tablet again?  Y E S !!!  It really is nice.  Windows is very stable.  ?

I had some problems running my 32G thumbdrive in the Teclast 98 Pro.  But I troubleshooted it to the white USB Adapter that was included with the tablet.  After I changed it, my thumbdrives – including thousand of files were read with no problem.  I am using a USB 4Port Hub with charger and the thumbdrive concurrently.

So I bet most problems with Thumbdrives reported here were because of the USB adapter.  Wiggle the Thumbdrive in the adapter plug and see if it will connect.  And it wouldn’t hurt to blow some air in the female USB adapter connector and maybe if required a cotton swab cleaning damp with alcohol.

Tablet in Windows 10 mode is really super.

I have ThrottleStop 8.1 installed and running with Option 4 (Max battery).  I clicked DISABLE TURBO.  I think it can be disabled in the BIOS too.  If so, I will probably do that.

But for now…the battery life has stabilized to a decent longevity.

I disabled Turbo in the bios.  It fine.  BUT – when Turbo is not enabled, little things like opening the bottom toolbar causes a hesitation…the Pro works much better with Turbo ENABLED.
