What all do you want to use it for? For all you know the 7" version is the one you should be buying. Basic usage includes?

Have to considered the Google Nexus 7? It's become really cheap. 32 GB version is for less than Rs. 20,000 on eBay now.

Tried the 7" inchers, too small for Dad's eyes.
 
hey guys i wanted to ask this from a long time but tried out googling things ... and resulted in no output.

i have bought an celkon ct2 tab and its pre rooted on stock rom. now my question is that is it possible to install micromax jelly bean rom on my tab as speciments are similar ....

but i have a sim tab so what about call and sms feature???
 
My FUNBOOK won't start. I don't know what happened.

One fine day, it decided not to work anymore. Stuck on CYANOGENMOD boot animation.

Then it runs out of charge. Been trying to CHARGE it since 3 DAYS. FAILED. I'm UNABLE to CHARGE the tablet to use it.

Did I just lose my tablet?
 
@YKW

Yep. Now tried charging 12 hours straight.

REFUSES TO CHARGE.

Same as before, V3 Cyanbook Jelly Bean.

This happened after I tried booting into recovery using HARDWARE BUTTONS, i.e. Vol up + Power

Didn't work. And now this!

Dunno if it's right to do it but try this -
1. Connect your Charger into the socket(don't connect the charging pin to the tablet yet)
2. Now turn the Switch On
3. Finally connect the charging pin into the Tablet.
After charging for a while see if the Tablet switches on.

Do it at your own risk :P
 
Got nothing to lose. I believe it's dead.

But the stock charger is HORRIBLE. It doesn't JUST WORK!

I'll go home and try with the IPAD charger.
 
Have you tried Stack Charging like in Playbook?
Try flashing Stock ROM and stack charging, hope if gets fixed!

Sorry for the OT, but does this really work on the Playbook? I know that there are more than several instances of it working for many users on Crackberry, but has it personally worked for you? I'm asking this because my brother's Playbook recently died and I tried stack charging it for over an hour and then simply gave up.

Would really be of help as I'm trying to sell off the tablet.

^allwinner is unbrickable.
connect it to the computer after performing the emergency recovery option. something like pressing home button 10 times while holding the power and volume up button. after this sequence, when you connect the tablet to computer. it will show up a device. after that just flash a new rom.

Though the screen would be blank and the tablet wont boot up, it will show a usb device in your computer when connected.

I'm not able to do the EMERGENCY RECOVERY OPTION.

Nothing is happening except display shows BATTERY EMPTY!
