Flash Firmware via Livesuit


Here is the instruction from Futeko.com that I used.  (Download link at the bottom)
  • Please note that the update wipes the tablet's internal storage and starts from scratch. So you will lose all downloaded Apps and data. If neccesary back up your data first!
  • Firmware must be flashed using a Windows application called Livesuit. Download it from the link to the left.
  • Once downloaded, and before attaching your tablet to your PC, run the file 'LiveSuitPack_v1.07.exe' from within the Livesuit folder. This should install a new device on your system (VID_1f3a_PID_efe8). This device may show with an exclamation mark in Windows Device Manager, this doesn't matter and can be ignored.
  • Now download the firmware image you want to install. Firmwares are linked to in the downloads section to the left. After decompressing the archive you will end up with a .img file (e.g. 'sun4i_crane_t01a_0.8.1_20120224.img'). This is the firmware/ROM image that you are going to flash (or copy) to the tablet.
  • Without attaching your tablet to your PC run 'LiveSuit.exe' from within the Livesuit folder. You should get an application with 6 icons.
  • You will be asked if you want to be guided through the process, select no.
  • Click on the leftmost icon (a cube), browse to your downloaded firmware image, and select it.
  • Turn the tablet completely off. The tablet should be off throughout the update process.
  • Now attach your tablet to your PC by USB cable whilst holding down the volume+ button on the top. Straight after attaching the cable, and whilst still holding down the volume+ button, start pressing the tablet power button repeatedly (approx 1 press per second for 10 seconds is enough). This procedure puts the tablet into update mode.
  • After a few seconds a window will pop up on your PC asking if you want to perform a forced firmware update. You can release volume+ at this point. Select yes. You will be asked if you're sure. Select yes.
  • The update will start and will take take approx 3 minutes to complete. You will see a % complete progress bar during the process and will get a dialog saying OK when it's done.
  • Turn your tablet on and you will have the new firmware.

  2. Helped me out to save my friend's ONN M3... just edited a few things in the build.prop and it bootlooped forever. With the help of this I could install Livesuit, download the firmware from onnchina.com and install! Thanks a lot!

  11. Hi!

    I'm looking for the firmware for my Ambrane Ac-7 tablet. I found a file which has the same build number as my build number on my tablet, but only a later date (20130302) here: http://www.4shared.com/file/FRXvd8Pn/A13_86VM_M702VM_20130302.htm?showComments=true#firstC
    Now I'm not sure if this firmware is meant for the Ambrane AC-7 but can I try installing this using Live Suit and if the file is unsafe or harmful can I return back to the original firmware that I had?

    1. However, I should add that none of the 4 m9000 firmware images worked for my unit (which had no serial number). I had to use the m9100f image file, and that worked perfectly.

  27. Dit is een interessante website. Leuke content ook. Ik was net op een website genaamd natuursteen-werkblad.be waar ze werkbladen en aanrechtbladen verkopen. Het is juist een heel witte website wat je niet vaak ziet volgens mij in de natuursteen sector. Schitterend om te zien hoe websites er steeds beter uit gaan zien.
