Hi,there!
in the first place ,I should give special thanks to webmaster,because I spent many time to register a member of here,but failed,he helped me to make it!thanks!
I bought a chinese tablet ,viewsonic n710,it has similar hardware to n7,maybe I should say ,it's a fake n7.
nvidia t3 cpu ,and 1g ram,8g rom!but its' android version is still 4.04!and unfortunately ,because of the manufacture's reason ,I can not get any big update from them,they just released some patch for this product!
at the begining ,its' recovery was android backup <3e>,as we know ,it can not backup the whole system to external disk,hence ,I spent 3~4 days to naturalize cm recovery to my device ,and finally ,I made it!at here ,I must give special thanks to the author!:good:
here comes my question ,can I update kernal by myself?the first way I thought ,may I replace the kernal by n7's zimage?you know its' kernal version is 4.21 now?and will it work with my n710?
if not ,can I compile the kernal by myself?because I am a newbie with android system,I have no experience on such a project.some documents said that the hardware drivers is included in the kernal,is it right?if it's right ,that's to say ,what I do is only waitting for the manufacture's update?
the second question , can I naturalize n7 rom to my n710? because the system kernal is different.to be honest,and I have no idea about the cause of android boot now.and if it may .please give me some suggestion to do it.because there are little helpful chinese article on learning such technology in china!
appreciated you guys any help and reply!!:highfive:
and finally ,I am so sorry for my poor english!
I highly doubt the nexus 7 ROM will work on your view sonic. There's a lot of differences even though they have the same hardware. I wouldn't try putting a n7 ROM on it. There's a chance you could fry it. I had a view sonic tegra 2 tablet and I know how you feel. They never update anything.
The place to start is by looking at partition/ directory structure.. Im guessing your device is unlocked as you have a custom recovery on it.. If the directory structure is STOCK ANDROID as in 4.0 4.1 . There is a chance with some kernel tweaking you can get it ported. There will NO DOUBT be hardware to not work .
There is not a yes or no answer. Because it Can very likely be ported . its just about how much time you want to spend .And resources available for the hardware in your tablet..
So i would start by looking at the device structure. And compare hardware differences between the device such as wifi sound bluetooth and other hardware .
Its likely will cost you more and frustrations .then just buying a nexus.. But xda is all about what your asking..
GOOD LUCK if you tackle the project...

thank you guys for your advice in the first place!!
although I think that it's very challenged for me,but I still want to have a try first,even I can guess that I will be frustrated in the end!
nowadays my ieda is that don't modify any things on zimage,just simply naturalize the n7 rom to viewsonic n710!!
I think that there's a little chance for me if I keep doing on it!you know ,I am just a newbie on android system ,so in the first place ,I may lost way,
but it's no matter to me if I can learn something from naturalization.so I have decided to make it even I know that I will fail!
good luck to me!
Hi!
Would you be kind to explain me a bit more, what do you want to make with your tablet? Do you want to install nexus7 firmware on it or what?
By the way, do you know how to root this device?

i am very interested in your topic, because i have N710 too!
And want to know which CWM RECOVERY version can be installed? just download a last version?
Can the CWM recovery work right? such as BACKUP?
After analysised the OTA zip, i got some information but not enough.
maybe we can study together you can talk to me in vsset
sorry ,guys,I really did not know that there's some thread with my post after I didn't care this topic anymore,untill one guy sent private message to me,so I thought that should have a look to review !!

all what I want to do is updating to my tablet,of course I have ever installed nexus7 to my device,but failed,it's out of my poor ability on android system!root this device is very simple now ,there's some ways to root it ,you can search it on internet ,especially care the chinese website!

the cwm recovery is 6.1.1.19 ,and the backup function is ok,but I havn't tested restore function till now!!because my tablet still havn't bricked :laugh:I also have a member in vsset,but it seems that few people have enthusiasm on doing something on N710!!
a good news ,I BRICKED THE VIEWSONIC N710 IN INTENDED WAY!!!and used restore function to repair it,it works!!
the cwm group really did a swell thing to android system!!!thanks a lot!
I may release the cwm recovery in public way ,but it depends ,partly because we still have customer service if you bricked your device in negligent way or intended way!!but the main reason is because nobody published rom for N710!!!if you use this device in normal way ,it's hard to brick this device!!right???if you think that with cwm recovery ,your tablet will never be die ,it's wrong!!

first of all ,I am no master!!
according to the reason I told above,I don't want to give viewsonic any reason to refuse repairing our n710 and update their rom with delay!
as we know, we still havn't perfect rom for n710,no matter 1.01 or 1.05,right?
if everyone has cwm recovery,when we blame the gps issue to them ,they may say "install 1.05",when we blame the power issue to them,"install 1.01,that's will be ok",what do you say then??
I think that you can understand it,right?of course I posted such a thread at here that isn't for boast,I really need others experience about naturalazing nexus 7 rom or cm10,you know, that's based on 4.1.x!
I also wish that I can make it ,and then I can do other things for myself,I really spent much time on n710 till now!!
if I knew that someone has made it,I will throw this project as soon as possible!
If you release the rom, we can try to transfer N7 rom to N710 together.

I am so happy that someone has the same thought with me!!
but because of my poor internet speed in china,I am afraid that I cann't!
the size of rom is about 850mb(if what I remember is right),it's a really big challenge for me to upload the rom!
my internet is wireless ,and the upload speed no more than 60k/s,and it's the common condition ,if the weather is bad ,the speed will be more bad!!
if you really want transfer N7 rom to N710,I think that you should not be messed by grabing rom from n710!!after all ,it's the first step you should do.right?
to my opinion ,to transfer n7 rom to n710 is not a good choice,though the hardwares look similar ,but in fact ,the touch pad,gps,camera and so on is totally different,I have ever flashed n7 rom to n710 directly ,but could not boot ,and it's the sure thing what I could image in the begining.and next ,I flashed modified rom which based on n7 rom to n710,still couldn't boot either!(of course,I may do many silly things on N7 rom modification,frankly,I am a newbie on android system) , but if you want n710 to have n7 operation interface(base on n7 rom but have n7 4.1.2 interface),just forget my words!I think that it's possible!
good luck if you really want to tackle it !guy!I also hope that someone can make it,because it can save my time.
and I am so surprised that foreign friends have interest on this device,because the device is not popular at all,even in china!

why don't you update your kernel from 2.2 to 2.3? And I think 4.1.2rom is not fluency for our defy . if you have the kernel 2.3,you may update to kitcat~
update your phone . you need pay attention to the following list .
1.Use the software named RSD,the file is sbf ,sbf will change your bl,so, you need to know what's your phone bl;
2.you need to now what's your defy's lens,it's red or green;
3.you need a rom which is .zip some rom don't need to think about the kernel but someone discriminate.
o it's the first time I reply in English,if I say something wrong or you can't understand.please forgive it . haha I have a bad English. and I think I need someone to fix my grammer error。and when i speek english I don't know what I said above。。。

some roms ignore the bl .but some like The official package need it.
G'Day everyone!
I would like to upgrade my ol' Huawei Ascend G740 to a newer firmware, but since Huawei doesnt release updates by themselfes, i thought about doing that by using custom recovery.
But i dont really want to use an official rom, i have Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and im not really happy with it. i prefer to have lightweight systems (like slim bean) without tons of Bloatware in it, so i started googeling. But i cant seem to find ANY roms for my smart phone, is the G740 that uncommon that nobody bothered to support that device? or is it possible to get roms for similar smartphones and install it on my (rooted) G740-L00? i dont know.
And if theres really no good custom rom for my G740 out there, i would like to update my phone to Andoird 4.4 anyways, even if that means to use official stock roms like KitKat or whatever, in that case, which one would you recommend?
I hope you guys can help me out!
Greeting,
- Manu

Hey, I am new to the website and I checked the G7 rom you linked but I noticed that there's also a CM12 rom: htcmania com/showthread.php?t=1069214
(fill the Space between htcmania and com with a dot). However, on the pictures it says the version is Android 5.1.1 and as far as I know this version has not come out. Can you explain?

It's a costum rom, but it haves a lot of bugs. I'm using right now on my Ascend G7-L01 and it works fine.
As far as I have heard then there will come an official lollipop rom out in this month, I'm so excited!!!
Huawei orange yumo G740-l00 rom backup
Huawei orange yumo G740-l00 rom backup :
please I need rom for my device, the right rom because i tried to flash rom like G740-L00_V100R001C109B146_Firmware_Spain_Orange_Android_4.1.2_EMUI_1.5_05011XXP ,but without any result.
my device is demaged ,i only access to recovery and fastboot ,recently i installed TWRP recovery ,
If someone have the same device please backup your rom and upload it on mediafire or any site else.
then I will try t restore it on my device using TWRP recovery,
Maybe it'll work
