Want to make your tablet run better, faster and get the REAL ANDROID MARKET?
I have done many of these tablets and. I have enclosed my instructions below
and the link to the files from my website.
Follow these directions exactly:
Make sure your tablet is off.
Remove the SD Card.
Download the V9 Final ROM file to your PC from my site. Make sure you know
where to find it after it downloads:
save it to your desktop and get winrar to unpack the zip file at
http://rarlab.com/rar/wrar41b4.exe
Insert the SD Card into the media reader on your desktop PC.
The SD Card will now show up as a drive letter on your PC's File Manager,
just like C:\ except with a different letter assigned.
Every computer will be different. Let's just say that on your PC it is G:\.
Right click the drive letter of the SD Card (G:\). A pop-up menu appears.
Select "format" and format the card to Fat32.
Now, using a program like winzip or winrar, extract the ROM file that you
downloaded to your PC earlier to a new folder on your desktop
.
After it has extracted, it will have these folders:
firmwareinstall
Changer_files
and these 3 files on it:
changer.bat
wmt_scriptcmd
Universal_Uberoid_WM8650_v9.1.2.txt
Using your PC mouse, double click the "changer.bat" file. A pop up screen
appears.
Type in RT3070 and hit "enter" (this enables WiFi support)
Select the option number that corresponds to your tablet and press enter. ( I found option 27 to work on most wundermedia wm8650 ) if that dont work
run it again and choose option 2 (if that dont work,keep trying differnt options until you get the right one) if that one hangs on the option
you selected, you will just have to keep running the changer and selecting a
different option number until you get it right. Make sure that after it does
boot that the touchsreen does in fact work.
(Please, if you are trying multiple options, just remember to try options
only for the size tablet you have. For instance, if you have a 7 inch tablet, try only options 1,2,7,8,9,11,12,13,16,20,21,23,25,26,27,28,29,30,3 1, and 32.
After you select your option number and hit enter, the changer.bat will ask
you if you want to install the ROM on your SD Card hit y (yes) and if you
want your SD Card formatted. Answer "NO" since you already formatted it
earlier, let the program finish running completly and it will tell you when
its done.
Now safely remove the SD Card from the PC media reader.
Insert the SD Card back into your tablet and turn it on.
it will show a progress bar on the botton, when it's done it will tell you
to remove the sd card , (don't remove card until it says to) when you do
the tablet will reboot
.
Select the wmtlauncher when it comes to options screen and set as the
default and thats all there is to it.
This should only take a few minutes to boot the first time. Make sure that after the tablet is up and running , that you reformat the sd card in a computer again before you put it back in your tablet for storage.

OK I have been trying to get my new WM8650 flashed mainly because well the market on it sucks and it was slow. I tried the suggestions you had about using number 27, which worked except the touch screen did not function. I tried a few others with no luck. However, using option 10 seemed to work just fine. Even had the Honeycomb startup animation. One quick thing to add, once you have your ROM flashed, Calibrate your screen. Otherwise you have hit a few issues trying to use it right away.

i have the wm8650 wondermedia 7 inch screen bought from a happy deal in china, it is for my boyfriend i so want to update everything but i am scared that i will ruin it as it is his christmas present, can i unzip it with winzip and is it easy to download and install or should i pay some one, want skype as well is this possible and how do you increase memory
hi i downloaded your rom extracted and followed all the instructions, when i got to changer.bat and double clicked this and got the green screen come up on the pc before putting it on an sd card i entered RT3070 to enable wifi it read after i pressed enter uberoid supported then when i went to enter a number for example 27 you said worked for you it kept going back to the config or quit screen where i first entered RT3070, do i need to just enter one of the numbers for my 7 inch wm8650 which is M009G with 256mb cpu via8650 800mhz
Your ROM option #15 with RT3070 option worked fantastic on this inexpensive tablet I picked up from Craigslist here in Phoenix, AZ! I tried about 8-other ROMS but your instructions were easily the clearest for a first time Android tablet user.
I need a bit more help. I had 2 Amazon (UK) secured tablets which I upgraded through the process above.
I tablet now is fine and dandy, the second freezes after a few minutes (no touch screen response)
Any ideas?

Have you tried re-running the process - just in case you missed a step the first time? In the last few days I have run the process 5 or 6 times trying different things - it doesn't create any problems.
Thanks. This is great. Before I try it, will someone let me know if Gapps works. I.e. can I get my google contacts, google calendar etc synced? Or is there something else I have to do as a follow up
Hey, did all the stes and now on the very last step the tablet is frozen it woun't let me select the wmtlauncher...can anyone help?thanks,Joe
This suggests to me that you have selected the wrong option number.
I had the same problem when I tried #8
I re did the process using #27 and it was fine.
You need to get the right option for your tablet - the batch file does list the various tablets and the correct option but you may need to use trial and error.
I am a newbee to all of this. I am tired of being frustrated, I don't have a extra sd card right now can I use a usb storage,I have a 4g . This grandma never even used the usb storage. My computer is 10+ old . Btw I have a 7.4 tablet, it's a generic-eng 2.2 froyo verisio 1.5.5 20110920.013830
Thank you NyRaised. Have been trying to do it all day following other people trying to be helpful, but there's always been a missing detail here and there. (Like Fat32, or option 27 which worked for me.) Brilliant! I have now just downloaded Omar Sharif Bridge from the Android market, which was all the stupid thing was bought for.
I tried the link and it comes up about blank please help...
I have uploaded the rom to my own website and it should
download very quick for you. Here is the link to the ROM from my site

New to the device and the forum. I eagerly anticipate trying this upgrade with the SD readt to go. But a couple of questions before I brick it:
About reports:
WonderMedia WM8650 (but it's a 10" iPad looking version)
Android version 2.2
Kernel version 2.6.32.9-default
Build number generic-eng2.2 Froyo Ver1.5.5-20110920.043830
So is this one that will take this ROM upgrade and would I still seelct number 27?
Is there an option for a later Android version?
Will this allow this to be seen as "compatible"? Some apps seem to need to comply with a compatibility statement like Chase mobile bank, wundergound app for weather, etc. I would expect that as openware it's all at your own risk.
Hi, I am new to this forum and also to this device, I got it during Christmass and I am upset that it is kinda slow and that market does not work. So I am really glad, that I have found this threat.
I would like to make this flashing/rooting/uprading of my device but I am scared doing it due to some reponses in which people describe that their device stopped working after this acction.
My device specs are:
Model Number : WonderMedia WM8650
Android Version : 2.2
Kernel Version : 2.6.32.9-default
Build Number : generic-eng2.2 Froyo Ver1.5.5-20110920.103830
So I would like to know, If someone with same or simmiliar device done this action with succes and if you had probloms.

Hi, I managed to get my Android Market work again so I did not flashed at all. Need to say that flashing is just for lazy people who do not want to do things for themselves so they just download this file as the easiest way of fixing their tablet.
I suggest to you browsing teh internetz to find out some bugs/errors of your tablet.
Has anybody experienced a senario where the root works perfectly but wireless network cannot be connected to (after using RT3070 flag)? It can detect my network and I can see from my router logs its accepted. But when attempting to connect, the tablet just says failed (after attempting to obtain IP address).
On pre-rooted android wireless could be connected to. I modified various router settings such as AES/TKIP, WPA/WPA2 etc but nothing worked.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I went through all of uberdroid options and found 26,27,28,30,31 worked but had this same problem.
I have just bought a mini laptop running android 2.2, and it has the WM 8650 CPU. So I was wondering if this rom also works on a non-tablet device, because it hasn't got a touchscreen. Has anybody already tried this?

I suggest you keep trying and trying to connect, mine will connect to the internet but it is very hit and miss - and it very rarely connects immediately.
It is very frustrating but it does indicate that my configuration is correct.
I'm guessing there is some clash with other devices hooking up to the wireless network.
If I get anywhere with it I will post back...
My wi-fi is horrendous on this tablet, will only stay connected for 2 mins max, then you have to disable and reconnect even when right next to the router. I have tried a range of channels to no avail. Any advice?

As I mentioned in a previous post, I have trouble getting the connection but once it connects it stays connected. I did install the App 'Wifi Fixer' which gets praised in other threads/forums. I was able to upload it onto my PC and then transfer it to the tablet using the USB attachment.
I don't know if it makes any difference but it may help you.
Did the Rom flash to my wm8650 wondermedia 10 inch screen bought from a happy deal in China. The system boots up but it freezes at the UBEROID screen. Does anyone know what number I should select?
Hi, thanks for the wonderful instructions. I managed to get my tab to work on the #7. One little problem - the battery widget is always 100%! I have tried many battery widget, the same problem! Pleae help. Thanks

hi,
u have to check for the sku label on the back, if it is uu00015 you have a mid M009G you have to use the option number 59 on the selector.
I also believe that I have an 8" model, and installing this firmware creates a strange visual duplication problem, where I can see the top bar twice, and touch doesn't respond at all. Any ideas?
Edit: Installed an 8" version, and now the touch screen simply won't respond -.-

Mine is basically a brick now despite following the directions at the top exactly. Saw the Android guy pop up and then went away, no progress bar, nothing. Left for a while
and zip. Any ideas?
When it worked, about reports:

Android version 2.2
