TWRP/Root for Walmart ONN Gen 3 8 inch? 100071483 - Walmart Onn Tablets General

Good Day Code Ninjas,
Has anyone figured out or began (and needs any assistance) attempting to root the Gen 3 Walmart ONN tabs? Specifically in my case the 8 inch with model # 100071483? I have that one as well as a 100011885 ONN 8 inch (currently stuck with the orange state boot screen that it wont go past...) I use Linux specifically Ubuntu 22.10, ParrotOS 5.1 and Linux Mint 21 but I also have access to Windows 11. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I am willing to help in any way I can though my knowledge and experience is no where near the caliber of that of anyone on here. Thanks in advance!

I just sent a friend request to you. Just in case mine is dilousmc#0637. finall figuring this out i feel so old and in the way when it comes to all this new stuff!

Can anyone help me with installing a stock ROM on my son's Onn 100071483 8"? He factory reset it, it's now FRP locked and he can't remember the 4 digit pin or Google account. I can access the ADB and fastboot and have had success with some of my tablets in the past but my first problem is finding the stock android 11 go ROM that this this was running. The second problem is that I am not aware of the exact steps but I know I need to run some commands though command prompt or the power shell? Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

I dont think you can flash it if you do even with root it will just reboot and fail to boot because of verity

Did anyone find a way to root this model?

I would like to see this as well just went outside to my car and saw my ASUS Transformer TF101 glass and lcd screen got destroyed, guess the last time the back seats were folded down it did not survive.
If anything (without me researching it yet) is there any known root method that will work currently?
*edit* supposedly framaroot works, but would be nice to have some dev support.
Looking into Lenovo first as we just got signed up as a dealer for them and I can get good deals because of that, otherwise may look into another ASUS or a Nexus.

There's no support for multi user as it's been removed from this build which is a pain because my lads love playing games on it
My sony tablet did have that feature and i'm missing that.
I've it was rooted, you could turn that "standard" jelly bean feature back on from what I've read
We ha another here who would love to see a yoga forum on xda. I just got this puppy for my wife tonight and I must say that I am very impressed for what Lenovo has done with this and for such a great price! I am afraid I may be selling my nexus 7 to get myself one of these bad boys. Please, if anyone starts seeing a fire start with this please post it here. I will subscribe to this thread and hope for the best. Maybe we can get a dev one and let the miracles begin. If we all put in 10 bucks it would only take 22 people to pitch in and we could buy a dev a tablet. Just a thought....

Procedure & Files for upgrading Mad Catz Mojo

Due to the recent price drop for the MCM there has been some renewed interest on fb in the MCM. It took many hours to collect the files and figure out how to get it going right so to save others some time I put an instruction PDF together along with all the files you need.
It's located in a public google drive folder located at:

Thnx Phoenix, yes i bought one today (wednesday delivery) and was surfing around clipping and downloading stuff. about the MOJO. This looks easy enough to use. Thank you for your work already done !
Still in doubt if i want android TV installed or CM as i bought also a android TV remote with it (not even sure if these work but i costs only $4). Love the shields laucher/desktop.
Got one also start play with it now .....look cool and fast.
thanks a lot OP. very helpful.
Excellent work and thanks, @Phoenix4848! Don't forget that there are alternative methods of flashing, and also other ROMs out there. I recommend setting up Fastboot just as a safety net; it can save your bacon if something goes wrong with Flashify. This XDA section is a gold mine of info on the MOJO, but you don't need that link, do you?

Thank you for the feedback. Yes I want to install Remix OS on a different mojo; I won't attempt that until I have Fastboot up.
I created the folder/link for a kodi box support group on fb. The procedure is simple enough for the average user and it's important mojo owners get rooted and SuperSU installed - there is a piece of ransomware that is targeting Android 4 devices. CM 12.1 is stable and user friendly - and it's android 5.1 which will run the newer versions of Kodi.
Adding it here was an afterthought.

Good thought, even if it was after. You don't need fastboot to install RemixOS, or any other one, but if your MOJO is soft-bricked and you can't get into TWRP recovery you can fastboot boot the recovery and flash from that. You can also fastboot flash the recovery. And BTW you do not necessarily need MoDaCo's fastboot, if you're set up for other Droids like I was you can use your existing fastboot setup. I find it easiest to do from Linux.
Yes, I like the Lollipop ROMs myself, a huge advance over KitKat (IMHO they shouldn't have bothered to release KK). And Marshmallow is even better, much to my amazement. I wish I had the extra time to learn to port ROMs myself, there'd be a MM ROM out for the MOJO about now!

Not a clue. But here's a couple things to try:
1) Call or e-mail Amazon tech support
2) Try a different ROM on the MOJO
Remix maybe?

Probably not a problem with the Mad Catz device probably a problem with the OS. Stock is Android 4.2, CM doesn't seem to work with every player. Remix works with more players but I don't know if it will work with Prime. I'll try later.

It really is isn't it? Once you get over the hurdle of flashing a decent ROM, you're set. Fantastic little gadget. I was very lucky to get it for £60 here in the UK. I don't think I've ever had emulation play so well on anything before.
thank you ...for reply and advice now I will try to flash the new ROM I have to read more instruction.... again thanks

OK I have chat with Amazon IT tech he said most game console can't play Amazon video that the end of it and I get $5 for the next purchase. I will install the new ROM next...wish me luck!
PS: I still have doubt some of us have Amazon prime member install the video app to see ..is he right? thanks

I'm a Prime member but it'll be a couple weeks before I get a real chance to fiddle with it, so if nothing more comes up to prevent it, maybe I'll try it on CM12.1 then. Too many irons in the fire now...
Last year, there was a workaround to play Prime videos via the Dolphin Browser with flash activated. However, ever since Amazon Prime Video dropped Flash support, it's no longer working.
Prime was the reason I bought my first MOJO, ended up selling it when the the workaround stopped working. As of now, I use the (second) MOJO for Kodi and the Youtube App only.
It's truly a shame we can't use it for a service we pay for, especially when they claim on their website that all android systems (>4.0) are supported.
I haven't tried any other custom ROMS since the stock meets my needs for now(minus Prime Video). But please do let us know if it works on the custom ROM you try.

I just got Amazon Video working on the Remix ROM. No tricks, it just works.
Additional note Xposed also works on that ROM. And Paragon should offer NTFS support. I like Remix - next step get a HDD working.

Oreo 8.1 rom Ok Google function.

Hi
As most of us all know that oreo roms are stable and giving good results.but all roms lack Ok Google feature when screen is off.and no one seems to fix it i wonder is it because its difficult or simply because people don't find it compelling enough.
What if i wanted to fix this issue? What would be a good start in the right direction?
Also if any one knows or has info that can help please share.
Thanks

Bro almost all nexus phones have this functionality to activate Ok Google from screen off. I do not know about other manufacturers though but i think it can be turned on in most phones via voice or assistant settings.

I don't know what you think who those devs are. I did the oreo bringup for shamu, but I am a hardware developer and my software skills are very limited.
Additionally all devs do it in their free time and for fun. If a feature is not implemented or not fixed then there is a high chance that nobody is interested or able to fix it.
If you want it working then you should learn to debug and to code.

Bro i meant no disrespect to any dev who do such work, i appreciate their hard work . I also realize that they take special time to do such work.I didn't knew much about how its all done. But since you explained, i thank you.
And i think as you mentioned i will look into it myself. :good:
Today i used nokia 6.1 with Android Oreo 8.1 , i checked its assistant and to my surprise it too did not supported ok Google function with screen off.
So my guess is that its more of an Android 8.1 change , they have limited this functionality to certain phones.
This means it is not a bug, and needs some custom coding or programming/modification to make it work again .
Well i think i am isolated but i shall continue to find what ever i can and post .
I read on Reddit post of this problem and a user posted build prop trick where one tricks the Nexus 6 into thinking its a pixel device.
I tried but it didn't worked and also camera app crashed too. Voice match remains greyd out , it did how ever at first showed sign that its working but nope upon real testing it failed.
I then tried switching name to nexus 6p and it enabled one option which was previously greyd out, it allowed me to record and voice and asked for pin to use voice match but then disabled 'use ok google from any screen' option. .... and camera was not working too..
Is it the right direction? perhaps..perhaps not.
Update:
This issue is definitely from Google's server side, the voice match issue is not present on nexus 5 and nexus 7 tablet. here is a thread of ongoing discussion.
https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/0GmbO8FgvQg;context-place=forum/nexus
I think Google decided to ditch ok Google screen off functionality altogether from Nexus 6. There tech team never responded to the complaints mad by users. So it's kinda dead now.

I've been looking for a solution to this. I spent a weekend last month flashing various 8.1 and 7.1.X roms and trying to renable it. Same story every time. Apparently Google's just decided we don't get to use this feature anymore. I'm gonna start playing with other assistants (Cortana, Alexa, Hound, Autovoice) and see if any work like we want Assistant to.

Has anyone tried this on a 100% stock, unrooted device? I got Google One for being a good Local Guide, and Google Customer Support says root may cause this. I'm going to try Magisk Hide and report back.

Somebody let a bear ( with a voracious appetite ) into our man cave ?

First off, I just want to say it's a woman's cave too. It's just that the 'turn of the phrase' was sounding so nice that I just had to go with it.

What am I talking about...
Amazon is selling our beloved device now with there assistant, Alexa baked into it.
.
What are we getting into ? I'm thinking about Amazon Fire Tablets where the tablet ( system ) is locked up like crazy. Are we going to be having a cell phone here now that's locked up like crazy to go along with the fire devices ? Hi Jeff.

I did now see that @bkrickles asked this very question in the 'whose getting it' thread.

Mine purchased from OnePlus directly has alexa hands-free installed in the pull-down icons. just tried it and it works. After the very latest update, it disappeared, but i had re-rooted with wrong magesk patche, but after using the right one, its back.
I wonder if OnePlus needed more units for their last sale, so they grabbed everything (Amazon had no inventory). Oh well.....

Request - Play Store - How to? - Gifting some tablets :) -- They are using LineageOS

Good afternoon,
I have some rooted HD 8's and HD 10's *Both using Lineage OS.
Is there a pretty decent guide on exactly what to download to get play store working?
I have some tablets I'd like to give to my parents after working this out.
Thank you in advance.
Its a late Mothers day gift and recent Fathers day gift.
@likwidchz I have strong doubts that playstore (Gapps) is working on anything else then on android.
I've flashed Ubuntu on a Fairphone and Playstore didn't work there.
So imho you gotta flash LineageOS to use it.

lineage-15.1-20220102-UNOFFICIAL-giza.zip
On the HD10's I have
lineage-16.0-20220506-UNOFFICIAL-suez.zip
If there is a later OS for either of those tablets please let me know and ill upgrade that.
What do I flash?? is that what OpenGapps is?

As I don't have your device you gotta check first if it's 32 or 64bit.
Then choose the appropriate file from here.
I usually take pico.
Thank you, after going back and forth a tad with it, I realized just that. I'll use pico as I think thats the only thing they will need.
Thank you again!

Allow me to lead your attention to the app Netguard-no-root by @M66B.
As I understood you want to give the tabs to your parents.
With that app you're able to block internet access for each app (even system apps) separately and these apps don't even notice that.
I've bought protocolling (useful for beginners when setting up) but it works free as well.
All games I use are blocked and half of the other apps as well.
I kind of realize now either one of two things.
The lineage OS latest june release uses lots of battery when powered off and just sitting.
or these tablets battery life I bought on ebay is just old.
How long should these things be able to sit on a desk and be off?

Imo there is no general answer to that.
I experienced that even the same LOS number behaves not the same on different devices. I think that the kernel chosen by the dev is the culprit.
As an example: one tablet on LOS18.1 can be off for days consuming nothing while one phone on same LOS uses around 10%/d even when off as well.
okay well crap, I guess thinking out loud, I wonder if it makes sense to put the stock amazon distro on it if there is one available to flash with twrp. That might be a bit less weird for them.
I just know if the battery dies, phone calls will be happening lol.
