So I've been fiddling with some devices firmwares, and got to create this.
Download from: http://www.wuala.com/Novo7Advanced/Transformation%20Pack/
The MOMO9C-4-Kevin.img works smoother and seems stabler than the original firmware. Only thing missing is the front camera... but I haven't figured out how to fix that yet.
¿Is there any other A10 tablet similar to the N7A with ICS firmware available? So I can test.
(also, any info on how to repackage .img firmware files will be appreciated)
Enjoy
Code:
N7A Firmware Transformation Kit - v0.1<br />
--------------------------------------<br />
<br />
This script will put into any installed firmware on the Novo7Advanced the kernel, modules and<br />
some required libraries from the official 4.0.3 firmware.<br />
<br />
You can run it on top of almost any ICS firmware for an A10 device, and it will make<br />
most features work.<br />
<br />
Instructions<br />
------------<br />
Flash any firmware on the device as usual using Livesuit. Don't worry about bricking the tablet,<br />
as it always can be restored to Ainol's official firmware.<br />
<br />
When the tablet has already booted (it should show *something* on screen), plug it using the USB port<br />
and run the install.bat or install.sh script.<br />
<br />
Note that, if using Windows, you need to have the ADB drivers correctly installed, and if using Linux/Mac<br />
(yes, it will also work on them!) you need adb installed and in your $PATH.<br />
<br />
(If the scripts don't suit you, you can also copy the whole "updater" folder onto /data/ and execute<br />
/data/updater/run on the device itself).<br />
<br />
<br />
Features<br />
--------<br />
This will make almost everything work on the firmwares I tested so far, including the tactile buttons.<br />
There is one exception: I couldn't get the front camera to work, so the camera libraries or configuration<br />
aren't fixed.<br />
On the Momo firmwares, which are the ones I primarly tested this with, the back camera works out-of-the-box.<br />
<br />
I haven't tested the remote controller or HDMI. These might or might not work.<br />
Test them and report back!<br />
<br />
Tested firmwares<br />
----------------<br />
MOMO9C-4-Kevin.img (Momo9 MOD): Everything works as expected, the most stable and recommended.<br />
sun4i_crane_M701C_Punaier_1553.img (Momo9 official): Everything works.<br />
Onda VX610w firmware: No camera, touchscreen works but as trackpad, everything else works.<br />
