So Feiyu has made a jelly bean firmware and here is the link to it (its in Chinese but you can use Google chrome to auto translate it) there's a V2 and V3 patch
The Only Problem is i cant seem to download and when i can i get a 23kbs download speed which stops downloading after a few minutes
SO If anyone cAN Download it and then mirror the file on media fire or something it would be greatly appreciated.
Everything Works in this including 2160p video player and full HW Acceleration
Awesome firmware!. Installed on my Ainol Novo 7 Aurora V3, working fine.
Was a bit tricky to understand how are installed required patch for V3.
In fact, it's needed to put the device in recovery mode from where it can be selected desired ZIP file to install.
For those who don't know how to proceed:
1. Install firmware using LiveSuite.
2. Enter into recovery mode via ADB mode by running the BAT file (all included).
3. To enter recovery mode press back of the device when an exclamation mark be shown after rebooting.
3. In recovery mode select appropriate patch (previously installed in SDcard) en execute it.
After automatic reboot you'll have android version 4.1.1 working fine.
I was a bit scared due to the heating... just remember that this is normal in this slim device.
I'm trying to understand why Google Chrome is not compatible with the device.
Personal Opinion on 1216 Aurora version 1 (previously using feiyu_0429).
Con
The battery life really sucks with this release. As long you do not shut down your tablet completely, it will simply continue to drain the battery. Thus, leaving overnight on standby will result in 0% battery.
The touch is a little too sensitive especially during scrolling. For example, if you are scrolling through a list of files, everynow and then, it will click on a particular file and open it (though you are trying to scroll instead).
With new firmware, it seems to cause the orientation sensor to screw up. It took quite long and sometimes it doesn't to switch between landscape and portrait. Tire of that, I simply disable the orientation feature in the settings menu.
Pros
The surfing with dolphin browser is much faster and more stable than before. So far, I have not struck with "application not responding error" as well as unable to open a new link in another tab.
Hopefully, a better version comes along to address the above issue.
Has anyone got the market working properly? I used AllWinner mod to change the build, logged out off my Google account, cleared all data, I still seem to get that the app is not compatible with my device. The build has changed under properties, yet google play doesn't recognize it.
