i think you're going well beyond generic android help here.


i've flashed and modded a dozen devices, and have no idea what you're talking about.
 
For thouse who CAN help...:I can't enter adb (device not recognized), can't flash using stock recovery (don't really know the steps and stuck at triage and dead android when in recovery),

IF you cannot enter ADB then your drivers are not working. Download the proper drivers for the device and do adb.exe devices to see if it shows anything

problem is from where, even for rooting I had to install mobobo (or somehitng like that) to get win usb and it is still installed it shows the device as adb composite and the adb is not recognizing, can you find the right friver for me , have been searching up and down for them and the rockchip ones are somehow not installing saying that there is no device selected for device information set or element and other times it is not even getting to there even...I'm also facing code 28, I'm on the verge of giving up!EDIT :SORRY NO CODE 28
 
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH,, FINALLY DID IT, my palms were sweaty, knees weak and arms were heavy when I was doing it.. but I DID IT!! YEAH just for info I did it by using the arc tools from here afte veryfing that the recovery was the one being distributed here I sacked up and flashed it... I was sucessful, and what do you think should I do a cmplete guide for rooting and cwm for lava tab huh?
 
Dude, no offense, but I check TPU at least 20 times a day, and your last few topics are...well....bizarre to say the least. I get it, that you were looking for some cheap tablet in India and then you wanted to flash it with newer android version, but really, why bother opening a thread at all when: 1.) you reply to every suggestion with: I LIVE IN INDIA MAN! (you could always fill in location in your profile and we will know with just one glance), and 2.) You give very little initial information when opening the thread. If I hadn't known about you previous purchase- this topic right now would be a mystery to me. You have more than decent English, and that's commendable. But what you write stays on the forum, that's your reputation/credibility, and when you open topics like that it makes me think whether I want to read your next thread :) I'd highly suggest when you make your guide about the Lava tablet - make a draft, wait for a few days and read it again to be sure you explained everything well enough- from the model of the tablet to what you did to it:) I am not being negative (at least I hope I am not :) ), it's just I feel you are making a bad rep for yourself :)

Nevermind: discard what I said. It's off topic and I could've written in PM. Sry about that.

Ohh Just wait a second, I have only wrote that my location is India about 2 times (well, I only really remember one time), and only that when the other guy suggest something from newegg or amazom.COM or ebay, secondly I didn't really knew how to fill in Country will do thanks for the tip, and yes you are right I give very less early info, well the problem with me is I seem to ask the question to myself first and then write it down, without really thinking about it okay...good tip..Well, okay I will make a guide for the tab along with a short review..thanks for the tips...

EDIT:here is the link to the guide http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/t...r-lava-etab-xtron-rk3066.199623/#post-3090794
