/!\ ATTENTION, installing Android will erase all partitions and their contents, including
those related to Windows /!
Prepare the installation USB drive:
Format the USB key of at least 2GB to FAT32.
Paste all the Android firmware files (+ "[Link]") at the root of the USB key,
for those who also wish to have root access).
- Optional: to keep only Android and thus benefit from more space, add to the root
from the USB key the file "[Link]" downloaded in section I).
3) Installer:
The tablet restarts from the key, and the installation of Android proceeds automatically.
During the process (about 7 minutes), the tablet restarts several times, a little
a droid appears stealthily, an application optimization message is displayed and the system
finally launches.
Enjoy!
/!\ ATTENTION: Android rooting seems only possible when Windows is not
installed /!\
/!\ ATTENTION: unlocking the bootloader erases user data /!\
/!\ ATTENTION: if you do not know what root access is, do not attempt these operations /!\
1) Allow unlocking via Android:
Go to the system settings of the tablet under Android via the Settings icon (or
follow the procedure above).
Enter the "Developer Options" menu whose icon is a double curly brace "{}".
bottom right.
Make sure that the 'USB Debugging' and 'OEM Unlocking' options are enabled.
(click on "Activate" if confirmation is needed).
Turn off the tablet and then turn it back on while pressing the "volume -" button.
The tablet is in 'Fastboot mode', an Android with its belly open and visible, along with a few
information lines.
8) Install SuperSU :
Select the 'Install' menu.
Go up a level in the displayed hierarchy (first entry at the top), then
scroll down to the bottom of the folder list to select the folder 'OTG-USB'.
- In this folder, select "[Link]" (normally at the root of the USB drive, like
specified in step I)), then slide with the mouse to confirm the installation.
Once it's finished, restart the tablet using the 'Reboot' button.
After a few seconds during which the screen may display a droid or 'optimization
of applications", the system starts and presents a new icon "SuperSU".
There you go, your Android is rooted. Don't forget to change the language (section III).
To gain root access, go to the system settings and enable 'USB Debugging' and 'OEM Unlocking' in Developer Options. Then, restart the tablet in Fastboot mode and connect it to a PC. Install the necessary drivers and use command prompts to modify 'boot.img' and unlock the EOM lock. Flash the modified boot image and reboot the tablet into Fastboot mode again. Access custom recovery TWRP, mount the USB in TWRP, and install SuperSU from the USB using TWRP .
To change the language settings, access the system settings, open the list of parameters, identify the globe-shaped icon, select it to open the language menu, choose the preferred language, and restart the tablet. This might be necessary after installation since the system defaults to a language that may not be recognized by the user .
Using a USB hub is significant because it allows multiple peripherals like a USB key and keyboard to be connected simultaneously to the tablet's micro-USB port, facilitating the installation process .
To flash the boot sector, connect the tablet in Fastboot mode to a PC, and in the command prompt, type 'fastboot flash boot "boot.img"'. The process is confirmed by a 'Flash done' message. Subsequently, unlock the EOM lock using 'fastboot oem unlock', indicated by an 'Erase done' message, with 'Lock State' showing 'unlocked' .
Before attempting to gain root access, ensure that you understand what rooting is, as the process may erase user data and is only possible when Windows is not installed. Also, unlocking the bootloader will erase user data .
The installation of Android erases all existing partitions and their contents on the tablet, including those related to Windows .
To prepare the USB key, format it to NTFS and launch the UltraISO software. Find and open 'WIN10X64_PE_14393.iso', select 'Write Disk Image', ensure 'Hide Boot Partition' is set, and write to the USB key. Copy Windows firmware files to the USB root, excluding unnecessary files. These preparations support installing Windows on a dual-boot tablet .
Administrator rights are necessary to perform tasks requiring system-level permissions, such as executing 'adb' commands, modifying system files, and flashing system images needed during rooting .
The prerequisites for installing Android on a tablet include having a tablet charged to 100%, an internet connection, a laptop, a 2GB USB key (and/or one of 16GB), a USB hub, a USB keyboard, time, and patience .
Unsuccessful detection of the tablet by a PC could result from incorrect driver installation, improper USB connection, or the tablet not being in Fastboot mode .
