I have read few threads and know I need to do the following sequences
0. viewpad 7 without root
1. ROOT the viewpad 7 (Done as read the previous thread)
2. Backup original ROM (fails via ROM manager as below)
3. flash a new ROM (or how should the right process should be ...)
Under step 1
1.2 I have created second fat32 partition and run link2SD
[Maybe next 32G SD card I will create a 2G ext3 second partition]
1.3 factory reset the viewpad and re-install all app via app2admin
[maybe I can restore faster via titanium backup under step 3.1?]
1.4 App2SD by Sam Lu to ensure those app moved to SD
So under step 2 there are few things I tried
2.1 I have tried ROM manager to backup
(But I being prompt to flash clockworkMod Recovery to be installed-
thats why I am confuse abt the sequence)
When I continue to "install"
I being prompt for confirm phone model
(After research I tried Spice M1700, Commtiva Link N700 and more
But is it correct ?)
Anyway I have failed to install
[Question - should I created another ext3 partition?]
I have tried other method
Clockwork Recovery For MI700/N700/Viewpad 7/.. - Android @ MoDaCo
Download:
2.2 Clockwork recovery 2.5.1.2
copy it to the root of your sdcard..( /sdcard/cwrecovery.img )
I used MyPhoneExplorer to copy the file over
Download:
2.3 flash_image.zip
unzip it and copy it to the root of your sdcard..( /sdcard/flash_image )
I used MyPhoneExplorer to copy the file over
2.4. Run Terminal Emulator
I have tried Terminal Emulator (a blue screen and keyboard not working)
and Android Terminal Emulator (I find the output very awkward to use)
[Question - what is the better terminal emulator that work for viewpad7]
[I used ADB shell but I may need more help on su command]
I can continue but I would like to seek others for advices to summarize the whole process specially for viewpad 7
3.1 Other than ROM manager, I saw Titanium backup was also needed
[Also what are the list of ROM available for viewpad 7 ?]
3.2 can viewpad be overclocked ?
4.0 How to recover to original ROM and reset to original factory setting
so that I can bring viewpad 7 for factory repair or sell to others ?
4.1 How to tried various ROM together with different SD cards
and boot into different ROM/OS
[Hope someone can write a better FAQ for the whole sequences]
Thanks and regards
