Hello
I made this video to explain with a unboxing review of this Fake or imitation Apple iPad which is known as aPad or ePad 7" Touch MID Android USB Ethernet VIA iRobot device bought cheap from China for $135 on eBay. Warning with this device, it is not recommended to upgrade the Firmware doing so can kill the device like I did. The device had many issues, bugs, faulty apps, scratches, even pics from the last owner who must have returned it too...
OMG
I got it
It worked
but not very well
so I tried to fix it
I tired the firmware updates online and they broke it
I tried all of them for like 8 hours
now the device will not even try to boot
as per advise on the other forums it seems dead bricked
like this 38.99.171.104/~slatedr1/showthread.php/2875-prepare-update-files-upgrade-problem!!!!!!!!!!?highlight=epad+firmware%26quot;
anyway yep so I just wasted $135 on a piece of junk that I screwed in only a few hours
I did record a unbox video, not a very complete one, and yeah what to do? I might see if I can return it for a refund? lol
I never went to sleep, I been up all night trying to fix it. I was too faced on fixing it to look at anything else online
now I give up
I pulled it apart to look inside see if any way to reset it maybe with a small batt or unplug the main battery but nope and now iv kinda damaged it physically to the point i cannot return it and expect my money back
I think if i sent it back Id just loose it and they might refuse
Well at least after this experience I can say that you would be safe with buying a Apple iPad with regards to knowing the quality and support of the product is decent. Unlike these eBay sellers...
OMG well that is the worst example of eBay gone bad I have seen yet, and it makes me feel better... lol
The guy I got this from has refused to just refund it, they said i can send it back but if they think its not their fault i wont get the refund, and thats unexceptionable to me. since I will not loose more money by paying to send it back and then not to get the refund because of the fact I tried to FIX it myself.
I have logged a complaint with PayPal but they closed it off... I could escalate it as a final attempt....
