Build number by me my own custom build number.This is the latest techniques and methods for those who use the older WM8505 or had Build 1.7.4, 1.8.2, or 1.9_88 would use this build. Also replaces the Xtreme, Xtreme Plus and Deluxe ROM.
Hi tipstir, I have seen that you are giving a great help to all of us who are having problems with the ePads running with Android. Thanks so much. Really appreciate. I recently bought a MID 7" ePad with VIA WM8505/533MHz, 256 MB RAM, 2 GB Flash. When I start it, it shows me WMT 2.1.2_105 in the boot screen. When I talk to my supplier, he said it is running Android 2.1. However when I go to "About Device" Menu it shows me following information. Firmware version: 1.6 Kernal version: 2.6.29-00236-g4f8dbbb-dirty Build number: WMT2.1.2_105 Can you kindly clarify me the following issues I have. 1. I'm confused with the Android version I'm running on this device. Is it 2.1 as supplier say or is it 1.6 ? 2. What is this build number? I have seen that you also discussed quit a lot on that. According to my current understanding, it is the ROM firmware. 3. Since I have WMT2.1.2_105, do you recommend me to update to further WMT versions such as WM2.2 you published today. 4. With my current WMT 2.1.2_105, is it possible for me to update to Android 2.1 or 2.2 (frodo) OS ? If so, could you kindly provide me some guidance. Thanks you very much in advance Sir! Best Regards, Neo
Don't get confuse, these are Android OS 1.6 (code name Donut) Only the builds number changes. Like your building something and you change only the build number. Same is the case here. But you can't use this custom build number. You need WMT2.1.2 I have about 4 of those but working on 100% rooted version. But once it gets tested then I'll release it. Again don't use this rom
Thanks for the reply. My supplier told me this is Android 2.1 (I'm really worried now). Can you please tell me whether it is possible to update the Firmware Version (i.e.: Android Version) to 2.1 or higher (I would love if it is 2.2 Frodo) ? Thanks in advance.

Hi NeoCambell, if you have tried the following firmware: 7inch_ebook_2.1_en 88_wmt2.1.1_wmt2.1.2_20110122-HcH Droid1.82 ECOTOX android 1.7 ECOTOX 1.0 ECOTOX 1.3.1 epad_script7f21110b Flytouch.1.9.99.v4c.256MB-HcH M002 Slatedroid Mercury RC (Logo Fixed) M002 Slatedroid Mercury RC Beta M009_new.rar M001_new.rar M002S_new.rar MID7_2188.rar rooted_wm212205_script Slatedroid v1.1 update software for the item CVUK-PC06-2GEN WMT 2.1.6_105_LF-C_v1.0b WMT2.50 WMT2.0.1_88 WMT2.1.2_105_M_V1.0_script WMT2.1.2_105_M3CSL_V1.0_script WMT2.1.6_LF-X_V1.0B6_script xFlytouch.1.9.88.v4 xFlytouch256.1.9.88.v4a and failed to load all of these. I got the same device maybe here, this device came in a box labeled "MID" in green letters. Doesn't vibrate when turned on and has a green power LED. It shows WMT2.1.2_105 when booting. Any WMT2.1.2_105 you try on this device won't work! (I've tried an awful lot, see the list above!) Lots of other firmware gets stuck on "Preparing software package" or on "UDisk Not found (/dev/sda)". However, based on WMT2.0_105 I've managed to create a workaround for this problem. So I've managed to make a custom rom: 105_wmt2.1.2_20110123-HcH * updated drivers to 2.1.6 * disabled / removed phone * change boottext * rooted * market * optimized windows loading * loads extra apps * loads extra games * deleted scn/tcn stuff * removed / disabled phone func * cleared dalvic cache * changed bootlogo * updated wallpapers * removed 6.5mb from launcher clearing ramspace * enabled adp * added more wallpapers incl thumbs Apps added: Advanced Task Killer Pro 195 Android VNC build 20100819 Androzip 104 App Monster pro 184 Battery Booster Beautiful widgets 3241 Cachemate for rootusers 263 Calculator2 Connectbot 400 All Dolphin Browser 250 Esfile Explorer Free Memory Lite 244 Hyreader Meridian Player 140 Quick Settings 197p2 Quick System Info Pro 152 Remote Desktop 190 Sticky Notes Games added: Air Attack Lite 306 Air Control 107 Bubble Burst Pro 211 Freecell 203 Grenades AS 113 Little Python 110 Robo Defense 120 Root Explorer 2124 Salvo 10 Solitaire 1111 Splat 13 Splat II 15 Tank Ace 1944 105 Tap and Furious 104 Throttle Copter Zen Table Tennis 102 Download this rom @ -=[HcH's TechKnow]=-
