Hi,

I'm trying this with my i-onik TP10.1-1500DC-metal. I downloaded the CrewRKTablets_RK30_Genio by Oma_CM10.1_v1.3.5.7z, unpacked that and replaced the kernel.img with the stock one from the file RK30_kernel_308_tp10.1_1500dc_metal_ionik.7z.

As I open RKAndroidTool c1.3.5 it says "Found RKAndroid MaskRom Rock Usb". I can also do the EraseIDB successfully, but when I click "Run" it downloads boot OK then proceeds to Test Device which is also OK. But then it says "Start to download IDB" and I get "Error: Download IDB failed" and "ERROR: Run failed".

Any pointers on what I can try next. The tablet is shaky, I can sometimes get it to show the android robot, but never boot into the os. Is it bricked completely?

Thanks

Hi hooky,

as far as I can tell, it really is a problem with your kernel.

If you replaced the kernel included with the CM 10.1 1.3.4 build with either the metal or darkgray metal versions of the tp10.1-1500, the black screen is likely caused by the wrong display driver(they use a 1280x800 panel, rather than the 1024x600 Panel from the keyboard version).

Regarding the pc connection problems, try to charge your tablet a bit, so it gets detected even without keyboard with it. If you get a driver installation notification, your good to go.( since it behaves as a new device in fastboot/download mode after formating its idb)

if it isn't recognized after recharging it, try reinstalling the drivers. After that, force shutdown the tablet(as it may or may not be in another boot state). While the Tablet is off, hold the Volume + button and plug in the usb cable while still holding volume+ wait until a device connection sound is played. Your Tablet should now appear in the flash tool.

To fix the kernel you just need to replace the kernel with the one you( hopefully) backed up before flashing. in your flash tool, you can uncheck anything but the kernel, otherwise the whole rom would be flashed again( it doesn't hurt though). No need to erase idb this time(unless you want to reflash the whole rom)

And while we are at it: If you did do a complete backup of the stock rom, could you provide me your system.img(the complete stock system.img is roughly 940 MB large)?

@hooky:

ouch that's a problem.

Your Keyboard will probably not work with this rom and the akku life is reduced by half, since the keyboard is softswitched. ( in the stock rom, namely in the fuelgauge package of the settings app, there is a function that switches the extra akku, including the whole keyboard dock, off)

I'll upload my kernel, as soon as I'm home, so you can try if this works for you.

@Oma7144:

the driver for the keyboard is compiled into the kernel, so you couldn't find it in the android sources. As stated above the keyboard is softswitched through the battery menu in the settings. It utilizes both an interface to JBSService.apk and libjbs, which interfaces with the Keyboard. The keyboard will cease any input, but the powerbutton, while it is switched off.

It seems that the keyboard is initialized some time during boot on compatible firmwares( stock rom and airis transbook tra01 stock rom, and possibly even the airis exilis N1300 stock roms). This step is missing in both AOSP 4.2 and CM10.1 roms, as they were built for a larger palette of Rockchip devices, which don't usually have hardware keyboards. I can provide you with the necessary files, as soon, as I'm home.

Yep. Downloaded the zip-File you provided and extracted it with 7zip to the rockdevimage- folder. I have the ionik TP10.1 1500DC KB with keyboard. I have a downloaded kernel of the ionik- hp. But the behaviour is the same...

Link: http://service.i-onik.de/TP10.1-1500DC%20KB/

 

Edit: I did a new try with the upper linked kernel. Tab was rebooting to CWM, formatted all date and stocks now in Bootmode with the 2 Linux pinguin and 2 shadows of them benind!? A new behaviour...

 

Edit: I used the stock recovery you provide on the hp crewrktablets!

I did a reboot by pressing OFF for 10 seconds. Booting was normal now, the two penguins for some seconds and now I got a yellwo screen with a lettering on the bottom of the tab. After that the system seems to be ready, but the screen doesn't react to anything and the screen width doesn't match   

Hay , may i have stock firmware for ionik TP10.1 1500DC KB with keyboard

Please help me to get it  It is so hard to find today
