Flash with PhoenixSuite (tutorial)

After flashing the tablet, a Setup Wizard may appear on first boot to configure your network, regional settings, etc… If the wizard does not appear, just disconnect your USB cable from the tablet, make a short press on the power button to turn off the screen. After the screen is turned of, press the power button for a short time again to power the tablet, the Setup wizard should now be displayed.

Please report any problem with this firmware, I can't verify this custom firmware works as I don't have an Onda V818mini (v1) tablet to test the custom firmware.

Nice work admin.

I installed yesterday and all works fine, very smooth and fast. Antutu benckmark score is +20000.

This ROM is more efficient than the 3.2.1. I not tested the USB OTG feature yet and the battery life still same than the previous ROM. If i found problems i will inform you.

Thanks

ssunder, blodnje,

Please make sure your device is a V818 V1, there may be some hardware incompatibility if you are using this firmware on a different V818 version.

Cheers.

Thanks. I used to have Onda V972 V2 and there we could use V1 firmware - only(?) camera was not working. Is here the same issue? Anyway It shouldn't be danger to test, right ?

Don't bother with this version. Kitkat 4.4. is less buggy. I also managed to root it with Kingo root.
