Please report any problem with this firmware, I can't verify this custom firmware works as I don't have anymore a Cube U30GT2 tablet to test the custom firmware.

I've added an older keyboard in the firmware because the original funrom one had only Chinese keyboard included. There seems to be some incompatibility with the one I choose.
newbi, you added Google Keyboard from the PlayStore, is that correct ?
Not easy for me to check as I don't have a Cube tablet. If confirmed, I will probably correct this issue in another build.
Cheers.

any chance of leaving the weather app in?
If it's not posted, it's not done yet.
It should come shortly.
Cheers.

I have updated the firmware and the download link in post #1, it will hopefully fix the keyboard issue.
I'm sorry I can't test as I don't have a Cube U30GT2 tablet.
As for the weather app, it is still left out of the firmware, that is build to contain just a clean and minimal set of apps.
Cheers.

I can't select any other keyboard so can't type anything and can't even get my WIFI password set up:-(

Hmm so right now there is a persistent keyboard problem, and its rejecting the workaround.
Perhaps Admin needs to do another fundraising drive to get arctablet a Cube to work on. With 4.4.3 out and who knows probably 4.4.4 or maybe 5.0 in the future it would be good for us users to get a Cube in their hands or even DarthJabba's able hands.
If we can agree I'm willing to pony up the first $30 or $40 dollars to keep my cube going and up to date. What say you folks? And will Admin or Darth agree if we can come to a consensus on this? EBay has a few going for less than $250US. I saw one going for $219US.
I know the tab is going on two years now but frankly I just haven't seen another with these specs at the price its going for in the past and now. Yeah we can all upgrade to IPads or Surface or whatever, but personally I just haven't got that kind of money and my cube is in pristine condition. If I can keep the operating system up to date for a few more years I'm willing to invest in keeping it going!
Just a thought!

Count me in - I will add another $30 which is a snip considering the help I have had over the years.
ian, maikal,
Thanks you for the offer but I think we need to focus on the future with new RK3288 tablets coming out soon. Anyway, the biggest part of donations we receive just cover our servers costs and there isn't much left so far to help funding a new tablet
Still, we'll support the Cube U30GT2 and older tablets as long as possible, but it's difficult to promise Android 4.4.3 or later updates, unless the manufacturer builds one that we could tune. The great guys from Crew RKTablets might help rebuilding a firmware from scratch, I'll check with Oma.
About the keyboard issue on current custom firmware, it may just be a small issue in the custom build and I am sure it will be fixed shortly.
Cheers.
