Cant enter flash/fastboot mode

I have tried every way to enter fastboot on this thread volume up plus power, volume down plus power, both volumes and plugging in usb and no matter what the tablet won't enter fastboot, nor will rktools recognize it. what am I doing wrong? I even tried adb commands to enter fastboot and it didn't work


edit: the problem was windows 10. this tool does not work on windows 10 in any form. switched over to an old windows 7 laptop and worked first try.

I was encountering similar issues as you encountered. But doing the following gave me at least a rooted NX785QC8G Nextbook.
It is now: with 4 GB storage that can be used for app installation, Android 4.4.2.

What I did: using Windows 7 SP 1 64bit (Intel i5)and a USB 2.0 port! I think the 2.0 USB port (instead of 3.0 USB port) is the key aspect.

For other info: you can search for [ ROM ] Nextbook 8 Quad Core NX785QC8G Android 4.4.2 custom root firmware (2014/07/13)

Missing Nand Flash

Dear Oma,

First of all, thank you for the ROM.

After flashing the ROM, my NAND FLash Storage went missing. Internal storage is here with a total space of 3.94gb, sd card storage is 2.51gb, and nand flash is missing. How can i fix this? Thanks! :)

Hoping that this thread is still Alive.

Ok, here we go ;)

    Just picked one of these up from Walmart. So far, not a bad tablet for the price. Their website is reporting it will have a KitKat update on July 15, 2014.

    Rooting instructions for Nextbook 8 Quad Core (NX785QC8G).

    1. Connect to PC via USB, enable USB debugging on tablet, then use Cydia Impactor to create ADB device Driver. (USB>Driver Scan>Create Driver).
    2. While connected USB, use Kingo after device driver is installed to complete rooting.

    Please post any Rom/Mod information on this thread. There's really no other resource available currently for this tab on XDA.

    Gents,

    Found some time to do a quick update to bypass the 8 GB NAND bottleneck ;)

    Mount points are changed which will make up to 32 GB space available for apps and app data. The internal storage is now 4 GB.
    Also I touched the footprint of the build to make it wide compatible for apps in the Play Store.

    Please post any Rom/Mod information on this thread. There's really no other resource available currently for this tab on XDA.

    Ok, let us have a deeper look into the firmware.

    Download a Terminal Emulator from Play Store. Boot the tab fresh and type:

    Code:
    su
    dmesg >/mnt/sdcard/dmesg.txt
    cat proc/cmdline >/mnt/sdcard/cmdline.txt
    cat proc/mtd > /mnt/sdcard/mtd.txt
    dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd1 of=/sdcard/kernel.img bs=4096
    dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd2 of=/sdcard/boot.img bs=4096
    dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd3 of=/sdcard/recovery.img bs=4096
    dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd8 of=/sdcard/system.img bs=4096

    Zip the files, upload them to a file-hoster und post the link here.
