If you appreciate my work and would like to support me with a small donation you can click on button.
If every happy user of this rom would just donate a couple per month I could invest more time in all these Android projects, it'd cost you just like one coffee per month.

Instructions

* Unrar the "common" rar file and put "zt-update" folder to the root of a microsd.
* Put rom (cm-10.1-$DATE-UNOFFICIAL-c97.zip) and gapps (gapps-jb-$DATE-signed-ubifs.zip) files inside internal or external sdcard.
* Turn on the tablet keeping pressed VOL+ and POWER. Press VOL+ to confirm and you'll boot to CWM recovery.
* If this is your first install flash this file that will format /system, /data and /cache partitions and from "Wipe" menu erase "Android secure".
* Flash rom (cm-10.1-$DATE-UNOFFICIAL-c97.zip), gapps (gapps-jb-$DATE-signed-ubifs.zip) and, if you're using a different device, the required compatibility zip.
* Now select "Reboot system now".
* Enjoy CyanogenMod 10.1!

Changelog & download links

2013-05-18

* Updated upstream sources

Common 2013-03-03
ROM (md5sum)
Gapps 2013-03-01

Compatibility files for C93 H6 1F

Common 2013-03-03
Compatibility v1.1

Compatibility files for C93 H6 2F

TWRP recovery (create a folder named "zt-update" in your MicroSD and unzip there the recovery.img file; the bootloader will do the rest when you use the buttons trigger combination)
Compatibility v1.1

Note that if you're running the latest C93 stock firmware "ZT283_H6_2f_1GB_Android4.1_0202_V1.6" you will have to use this TWRP and this comp zip.
If you accidentaly used the previous files you'll see that partition's got fucked up and you'll have to flash the stock firmware to fix them

Issues

* Use another launcher (I suggest you "Nova" or "Apex") because Trebuchet screws the layout.
* Bluetooth stack has changed: USB bluetooth is not working right now; only devices with UART (internal) bluetooth works.
* If your device has only a front camera you won't have a camera launcher icon, but you can install this app

FAQs

* If you don't like Nexus 7 fingerprint and wanna use SGS-II instead flash this zip. Remember that changing fingerprint may screw Play Store, if it happens you'll have to perform a "wipe data / factory reset".
* WiFi now can stay enabled with display turned off. Note that if WiFi is enabled the tablet won't enter deep sleep so if you're more interestead in battery life instead of an always on WiFi change policy (on "Advanced" WiFi settings) from "Always" to "Never".
* Internal memory is mounted at /storage/sdcard0, external sdcard is mounted at /storage/sdcard1. If you wanna swap them (and make primary your real microsd) just flash this file after flashing rom's zip (you have to do it everytime you flash a new version of the rom)
* If you wanna format your internal memory (it's corrupted, filled of crap, etc.) just flash this file from recovery. If it fails try to unmount internal storage from "Mount" section.
* It's better if you don't change governor because the included "ondemand" has been customized to support "boostpulse" feature of jelly bean power hal. You can control min/max cpu frequency with display on/off editing these entries in /system/build.prop file (they're listed with their default value): "ro.sys.min_cpu_on=408000", "ro.sys.max_cpu_on=1200000", "ro.sys.min_cpu_off=96000", "ro.sys.max_cpu_off=1008000".

I had the same problem but I solved it. I installed first official jb then cm10.1. Maybe problem was from rom's partition, an ics.

I think I flashed it directly after having the jb from Zenithink, but I was also playing with omarahum's modified ICS ROM. Thanks, I will try it later and report back.

EDIT: It works now, no problem with factory reset or any wipe after flashing first the official Zenithink jb rom (4.1.1). CM10.1 starts now with no problems. Thanks.

Camera launcher app for the C93 (This is so you can launch your camera to video record or photo yourself). https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B-NNcfOVyQTBclotNXJZTndPOEE

Make sure you flash the camera fix zip. This is not needed for the C97.

It just means to place all the zips that you have downloaded onto your sdcard, the only file you need to extract/unrar is the Common one that has the zt-update folder in it, which is the folder you need to put on your (FAT32 formatted) sdcard to enter recovery (like with the stock ROMs), then from the recovery (I'm not sure of he is using CWM or TWRP recovery with this ROM), you flash the zips from wherever you put them (the root of the sdcard the the easiest place)...

C97 Camera fix.

Go into CWM or TWRP and flash this file. https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B-NNcfOVyQTBa3RuckJiRGxPb2c

If it doesn't work you need pull the build.prop file out of that zip file I just posted and download/install/open up notepad++ and change the following line 83:

ro.camera.orientation.back=180

You can change it to 0,90,180,270. Try them all to see which one works for you. Once you change it. With 7zip you can drag and drop that file back into the zip file.

In the last build back camera build prop entry is already set at 180

Hi, from Christian Troy here http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/39533-rom-aokp-update-1117/
If you don't like Nexus 7 fingerprint and wanna use SGS-II instead flash this zip. Remember that changing fingerprint may screw Play Store, if it happens you'll have to perform a "wipe data / factory reset".

So I don't like that Google plus think that have a Nexus 7 when I don't , but seems that is not easy replace it , and I have other question why Google play says Google earth , street view , angry birds are not compatible with C93 ? when they run pretty cool on it . Just use aptoide to install it.

Merry Christmas to all and happy new year !

I'm testing official rom of 14 Dez ( ZT283_H6_1f_1GB_Android4.1_1214_V1.6 ) and I'm happy because it seems all power management stuff [1] works well, like I said it seems, not for sure. But enters in deep sleep mode even with wifi on , I have Tablet with 2 days 1 hour without charging or power off , of course most of the time sleeping , but the important is that enter in sleep mode, very quickly on idle and when on sleep don't consume battery, also I notice that disable power of USB (when enter in sleep mode). Powering up, on power port works OK, for more info http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/42197-rom-zenithinks-official-20121214-jb-rom

This CyanogenMod custom roms have many interesting addons and features, but I need to see tablet without power management issues, understand how leds should work etc, and I may back to CyanogenMod.
Also I'd love participate on development of this custom roms, as a Linux expert I could help out.
