You have stopped loading an unnamed Chinese tablet on Android. It starts loading, reaches the animated loading image, and then stops and does not load further. Or it goes into an endless cycle of power on and reboot. What to do? How to get him out of this state?
Necessary
- - Android tablet;
- - microSD memory card with a volume of at least 512 MB;
- - a computer with an internet connection.
Instructions
Step 1
Usually, this kind of malfunction is solved in one way - by replacing the tablet software or flashing it. And here it would seem that everything is simple, but we know little about the tablet. That is why it is nameless, that it is impossible to find any information on its name. Therefore, the first step is to determine which processor this device is running on. To do this, you have to climb inside the tablet.
The designs of tablets can be very different, so here you can limit yourself only to general recommendations on how to open your particular model.
Look carefully around the perimeter, along the side edges of the tablet for screws. If there are any, unscrew them. If there are any plastic pads or inserts, try to separate them by picking them up with something sharp but not hard (a plastic knife, for example). Next, try to pick up the back cover and walk around the perimeter, separating it from the front. It is convenient to do this with an unnecessary plastic card - it does not scratch the case and at the same time is hard enough to open it.
Step 2
When the tablet case is opened, we determine the processor model. The processor is most often the largest chip on the motherboard of a tablet computer. For example, in this photo the processor model is WM8850 (position 1). This is a fairly common inexpensive chip in Chinese tablets.
You may need a touchscreen controller model as sometimes after installation it may turn out that the tablet boots up and works, but the touchscreen does not. In the photo, the controller (position 2) is called EKTF2127. This is also a fairly common microcircuit. Typically, the touchscreen controller is located near the loop that connects the touchscreen to the motherboard.
Also look at the large, unrelated markings on the motherboard (position 3). Perhaps it will be the board version, its number, or even the manufacturer's name. This information will make it easier for you to find the correct firmware.
Step 3
Android tablets support several flashing options: via the network, from a computer and from a microSD card. The most suitable option in our case is updating using a bootable microSD card. To do this, you need to find a suitable firmware, load it onto a memory card, reboot the tablet and wait until the installation of the operating system is complete. Therefore, the next step is to find a suitable firmware. The performance or malfunction of the tablet depends on how successfully you can find it.
Step 4
Type in a search engine a query with all the data that you found for your tablet. For example, for the case under consideration, the request may be as follows: w70 WM8850 firmware. And the very first links in the Yandex search results lead us to the desired result.
Read these sites, look for what works best for your Chinese tablet. Typically, such thematic forums provide detailed sequential descriptions of the process of updating the software of various devices and provide links to firmware, both official (factory) and unofficial (developed by enthusiasts).
