Hi

I just wanted to share my experience here.

I am currentley messing about with 6 of these tabs. But im no Tech

I followed all the wipe instructions on 2 tabs and when i try to install 5/18 i get a fail. On the Tabs were i simply install from no wipes or resetts it installs no probs.

I have read heaps and recognise thst wiping is somehow an important part of updating but maybe one of these wipes causes this problem.

It doesnt bother me as 5/26 installs fine and apart from requiring the google search fix i think it is easily the best update available (as of 06/15) as i have had issues with every other one.

Anyway maybe you could explain why this is as your tutorial is very thourough but some may want 5/18

Cheers


Sorry this was meant as a response for Mightyjorbacks Post


Hi Iamkanga!

I'm using the 5/18 with patch.zip coz i'm having problems with the feiyu, it sometimes freezes and touchscreen does not work even after reboot. This is only for those who are having issues with feiyu 5/26. By the way, i used the 5/18 version with patch.zip (200Mb).

my stock firmware was 510, everything was fine but sometimes the internal sdcard not detected and i had to do factory reset everytime the problem occurred...i tried to update to 518 but failed with E: failed to verify whole-file signature...then i tried update to 601, the updates was successful...everything seems to be smooth except not able to run any version of play store and then facing the same wi-fi problem with iamkanga...

can someone help me with the E: failed to verify whole-file signature problem?i can't going back to any firmware version because of this problem... :(

Regarding the last step:

6). press and hold -Vol and power button together for 4 seconds. update process will continue. if any error occurs. Then you select 2nd option from it i forgot that name it is kind of select recovery file from memory card. then give path to that tornados_feiyu_mod(0526).rar and press home button to select it. in this way installation will continue.

I have the error and when I select the second option, it does not recognize the rar file... I have placed both the
tornados_feiyu_mod(0526).rar file and the extracted tornados_feiyu_mod(0526) folder in the root directory. It can recognize the folder but not the .rar file. When I select the folder, it takes me to the sub folders and I really don't know where to go from there...

I really need your help. Thank you.

Extract Feiyu.rar into the root of SD Card, make sure it is not extracted in a (sub)folder.

try without sd card mounted.
when prompted failure, navigate to update from sd card, insert sd card again and navigate to feiyu folder.
