I checked the link... and based on the "comparison" there... the Ramos W6HD seems to be the clear winner vs. the Ainol Novo 7 Paladin.
The Ramos does cost a little more, but you get dual cameras and an Anti-Glare screen.
The only benefit to the Ainol appears to be a slightly larger battery.

It's a pitty that Paladin doesn't have any camera. News said that local Chinese manufacturers will launch more Android 4.0 tablets, the popularity of ICS is already on the way. Maybe we can wait a little longer for more less-costly ones.

Does anyone have Ramos W6HD?
Market work?

Speak better-worse, based on third-party tests incorrectly. I ordered myself. Comes describe in comparison with C8. Happy new year!

No market at this time, but you can install the Amazon Market.
Hopefully a firmware update will come out soon and fix the market issue.

Hello Tasselhof,

First of all, Thanks for your help !

But let me ask you something, in your "[FAQ] - Ramos W6HD - Commonly Asked Questions " thread , you say that´s possible to enable "Full Market", but I´m confuse since it´s doesnt have Market.
Could you please clarify ?

And regaring root, the root process in the FAQ works ?

My last question, do you think we will get the firware source code any time ? I bought a DROPAD A8x... it´s no longer supported by the Manafucter, and we don~t have the source, so, it´s dead :-/...
I would appreciate your advice.

[nsourtgr]

I bought it... I am waiting to receive it....
I am hoping to have it in a couple of days...

Congrats, hope to share experiences. While my on the road...

[mcauduro]

the source code for ainol novo 7 is released - http://developer.mips.com/ - anyone nows if we do have the source code for Ramos W6HD ?
Ramos is a very cool device... if we could get the source to change ours, it would be very cool

I have not seen an updated firmware yet. In regards to Flash. I manually installed Flash 10.3 and the Opera browser. I can report that flash content was playing normally at a website called flashmo D com.

That would be the Camcorder light. Yes there is a battery indicator... I haven't really tested it playing straight video but from general use I would estimate at least 2 to 3 hours of solid video playing. Battery is not removable. eInk will always win out in reading unless you are in a dark room with no lights and in particular if you read for hours at a time, but the text is crisp and clear along the anti-glare helps with outside sunlight.

Hi MrTasselhof,

I will receive my RAmos W6HD in a few days and I would like to know if there's a way to install the Android Market on it?

Thanks

Sign me up too. I've just bought it from merimobiles, I will receive it in few weeks.

Hello everyone,

I've just bought this tablet from meri, can't wait to receive it! (I've also bought a Onda VX610W so the first thing I'll do is to compare them).
I've chosen this tablet mostly for the anti glare screen, I read a lot of techical ebooks and my ebook reader can't quite handle them because they have a lot of figures / diagrams etc.
I'm also an android software developer so feel free to ask me for a custom app that we may need for those two tablets

[nsourtgr]

I just got Ramos W6HD.... and I downloaded the latest android market. apk....
I installed it but as I expected ... it crashed...

I installed SlideME Market... but it's not what I expected (not friendly GUI, not must of apps to find, etc) ...

Is there any other alternative solution??

TIA

[dokkk]

@ nsourtgr

Dear, you can read more about "I downloaded the latest android market. Apk ....


I installed it but as I expected ... it crashed ...". And do not try tried to install the apk of the other 4.0 firmware?

Very informative post. The link is very much useful information. When my w6HD come gladly take it. PS: the latest official firmware 20120109W6HD. On the official site yet.
Thank you.

I have received my W6hd . It's my first Android. I did the firmware upgrade to 201128 and it worked. I can't get a picture in Netflix? sound and the rest work, just no picture. Leo's Flight Sim won't start. Barcode Scanner (from Amazon Market) doesn't work, just closes. Tried the Android Marketplace 3.4.4 but it just crashes. Most apps from GetJar don't Download, just sit at 0% forever. Any Idea how to root this Tablet? The screen is nice inside, but a bit reflective and dim outside. The speakers are pretty low in volume. overall I like it so far, just want to get more apps that work.
