Yes. It was soldered. I bought one of these:

No clue if it will work and even solve my problem. However, it’s not that expensive and worth a try.
But replacing the soldered eMMC demands quiet good soldering skills and the right tools…

I found that its eMMC is got broken. I removed the chip and wait for a new one via AliExpress. But I cannot recommend this method. It’s a pain to properly replace a eMMC chip.
The only thing that will probably work for you as well is to boot from a USB drive. But thats quiet slow. So, in the end it’s just a brick you can try to sell on eBay and learn to never buy a Chuwi device again. Quiet a bad build quality. Oh yes, and forget about Teclast. They are even worse.

I already tried the default BIOS settings, including a fresh BIOS flash. Nothing helped so far, not even Linux lists up the drive. Neither the SDCARD nor the eMMC. I guess the SDIO unit is broken.

Bad quality. And definitely bad support by Chuwi. I cannot recommend them.

After my experiences with 3 chinese tablets: no, avoid at least Chuwi and Teclast. Both are crap. And when it comes to processors: Avoid Intel Atom CPUs. They seem to have serious sleep problems under Windows 10.

My Hi12 is also affected of this spyware.

No need for a restart. Just open the device manager, select the Realtek driver, then disabler and afterwards enable it. I experience the same with the bluetooth driver.

This firmware update hasn’t solved anything for me. I did that update some weeks ago because of a hint in the original chinese teclast forum.

Anyway, I cannot use my card reader anymore, because the spring inside somehow broke (while the sd-card still inserted, of course).

Sure it’s subject of the 1 years warranty. But as the shipping will cost me around 100$ I will probably life with that issue.

[CrazyCookie]

No. Not happy at all. After some reboots the card is not recognized at all. Android will not even boot if the card is still inserted.

However, I found this link here:

http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/asus-transformer-book-t100-general-discussions/41275-useful-interesting-bay-trail-bug-list-possible-wifi-sd-card-issues-known.html

Seems like a serious bug Intel built into the chip.

I’m currently running a 128GB class 10 card I ordered via Wish. That one was originally formated with FAT32 and didn’t work at all under Android. Windows had no problem with that card, but I reformated it with NTFS anyway.

Guess what, Android is now not only able to read it, but also to write onto it. Quiet odd, but I’m happy now.

@Acidjazs

Make sure you use:

1. 2 USB drives: one with a copy of the WinPE installation (the one you have to select in the boot menu) and one with the copy of the extracted “images” folder. Also make sure the names of the drives are correct (WINPE and images).
2. Use a powered USB HUB and connect both USB flash drives. It doesn’t work if you try to first boot WinPE and then exchange that one with “images”.

@Georgos:

Sure you can, as long as you do not mess with the bootloader. But the default system restore needs to be done with 2 USB flash drives, at least with the default installation scripts delivered by Teclast.

Maybe, I’ll find some time to create a single drive installation. I cannot really see why you should use 2 drives.

[CrazyCookie]

Anyone else having the same problem? Or is it just my keyboard behaving as described above?

[CrazyCookie]

I experienced the same as I tried first. The thing is you have to make sure you created 2 USB flash drives, and name the second one exactly as described in the document.

During the installation you have to insert both USB flash drives as the batch installation tries to look for the second one to read the install.wim.

Hi folks.

I tried to install Ubuntu 16.04 on my TBook 11, but could not partition and format the eMMC-drive. I’m getting an error message of the GPT driver about the block size being 2048 byte instead of 512 byte.

I installed just Android on the machine and wanted to use the remaining partition for Linux.

Anyone else experiencing this kind of error?

[CrazyCookie]

Thanks Chris. And sorry for the double post.
