HOW TO USE THE LIVESUIT PACK TO REPAIR OR UPDATE THE ROM YOUR ANDROID TABLET

[Note: The following instructions are generic. It may not apply to certain tablets that have their own methods of software update] 8) The first thing to do is to have installed the driver or controller of our tablet. Otherwise we can install reading another of our tutorials. 9) Then we locate the application LiveSuit.exe in the folder, and double-click it.


10) The program will begin with a warning message indicating that the update can be risky and you make a backup of your data before proceeding, and asks if we want to access a guided update. To continue the tutorial we will say we will no

11) Below is LiveSuit main screen with several buttons. In order to perform the flash need in our computer have downloaded an img file with Android ROM that works in our model of tablet (if you downloaded a compressed file, like zip or rar, need to extract the img file that comes in). So click on the button “Select Img” and after that choose the ROM you want to install




13) At this point we make the most important action: connect our tablet (that should be off) to computer via USB cable, and while doing this action must reset the tablet. Some tablets have a reset button that we press while making the USB connection, others do not have but can be reset by pressing a combination of buttons (eg: Vol+ and On). We will show both methods using the example tablet Woo Comet A10:

Method 1: Reset with the Vol+ and Power buttons

In this method we reset the tablet holding down a button while you connect the tablet to the PC with USB cable and press the power button repeatedly. That button keep pressed is normally the button “Volume +” (as in the tablet Woo Comet) but for tablets that do not bring volume buttons is used to reset the “Esc” or “Menu” (as Prolink tablet with MD-0696B). So before starting the procedure must be identified on the tablet buttons that we will use and the usb port by which we will connect it to the pc.



The tablet should be off. What we do right now is to press the Volume+ button (or Esc, or Menu, as appropriate), and while holding connect the tablet to the USB port of our computer and press repeatedly the power button until the program LiveSuit indicate on the computer screen the message in step 14 of this tutorial (usually takes 15 to 20 beats the power button, but can be less or maybe more, the reason is that if you press a certain pause will require less pulsations that if done quickly).

Method 2: Reset by pressing the Reset button

If our tablet has a “Reset” button and the previous method worked out or we find it difficult, then we can keep this one. But we need a needle or something similar with which we can push the reset button on the tablet. It should be noted that not all tablets come with the button, but if they bring is usually hidden in a small hole in the casing of the equipment (sometimes in one side, and sometimes on the back). In our example the Woo Comet has on the right side a small hole in which is hidden the reset button of our gadget:

At this point carefully insert the needle into the small hole until you hear a click that indicates that the reset button is pressed. Then, while pressing the reset button connect the tablet to the USB port of our computer, and we will show the message on to step 14 of this tutorial.

14) If the reset was successful a message appears asking if you want the PC to format the internal memory of the tablet (if not to do the procedure again). We will say yes because otherwise we will not flashing:
15) For security asks us if we are sure that we want to force formatting. We say yes:

1

6) Now the program starts the flashing process (or Android ROM installation) indicating the approximate time of the process:

  

17) Then get a message indicating that the update has completed successfully. You have to press OK to close the message.

  

18) Finally press the Exit button to quit the program and disconnect the tablet that already has the Android operating system ROM.

  

That’s it. It’s a simple procedure, all I can seem complicated is resetting the tablet when connected to the PC, but with a little dedication realize is achieved smoothly. See you later.
