ICS 4.0.3 for Novo 7 Paladin

[BCK]

It may not be dangerous in terms of damaging the tablet but it is causing problems and people are obviously struggling then to return it to factory 4.0.1.....So im avoiding like the plague.

Exactly what I meant. I never said it would physically damage your tablet but it sure has been causing problems to the way it runs. I'll wait for the real deal also.

Well, the update broke wifi on my device - no way to turn it on. Back to 4.0.1. I wonder what the percentage is of people who have tried this update and it worked compared to those that tried it and it didn't work...?

People keep referring to this incorrectly as an update. It is not an update but somebody's hack. Ainol has not yet released the official 4.03 update for the Paladin Knight and probably won't be doing so for at least a few days as the Chinese New Year is on Monday.

With all the horror stories, I will refrain from updating the firmware. It seems more trouble then benefit.

Hi good morning,
I tried to load the rom 4.0.3 and I actually broke the WIFI.
I'm back behind ClockworkMod restoring a copy and still fails.
Do you fix down the original 4.0.1?
thanks

It worked perfect for me. Download the apropiate one (paladin rom, not basic rom). All works a little faster and Wifi is more stable (but with the same range). With 4.0.3 and MagicCode is not a bad tablet for the price.

Where can i find drivers for Windows 7 64 bit version?
in the ainol package there are only drivers for JZ740-JZ750-JZ760 and not JZ770 !!!
helpppppp

how? im tend to update to 4.0.3 but procedure still complicated for me. did you flash it through CWM or Original stock?

[fads]

if you flash it through CWM wifi will not work as clockwork is unable to flash the kernel properly,it is a simple procedure if you follow the steps in my thread Easy way to update to 4.03 with working wifi,market etc

And what do you think, who made this update? First of all, NONE of us, even the chinese guys, have the required BSP and kernel source code to build any ICS code. The last release by Ainol was for 2.3.5, and as such, we can only build that properly (many things changed in 4.0 from 2.3.5, including their mostly modified MIPS dalvik, and many many internal systems, also changed by Ainol, oh not to talk about kernel, our version was 2.6.36 if I recall right, but defo not 3.0.8). It is impossible this is a "custom build" of someone, but more likely a "leaked" release (Ainol pushed it on the forums, so they can have free testers of the firmware during the holidays, then when they get back, a few lil fixes and done, release ready, instead of long testings).

If this tablet was some random ARM one, I would say, possible. But as the official repos contain only a few mips supporting native parts, it's highly unlikely that someone spent time and money to get such a release out. And even less likely that this fictional guy re-coded all the libraries of the included apps to work on MIPS. I'm still saying, it must be an internal Ainol release what got leaked some way.
