This is a touch recovery, recovery source is from carliv. This is his recovery I compiled it for intel x86, more specifically for Dell Venue 8 (3830), This is a cwm 6.0.5.1 recovery.

Below link is to carliv's thread, this link explains about the recovery, so rather than just copy and paste I linked to his thread. [emoji14][emoji14]

adb works just fine for me also, adb has worked on all your recoveries including the tethered version.
I think @joanthanmajh uses windows and doesn't have his drivers installed for recovery. When I used windows I had to install drivers while in recovery mode to get adb to work in recovery.

Hey Vamp, thanks for this recovery, I just pulled this from your github to compare with mine, compiles and works correctly.

What font do you use? Mine seems too big. Also do you know of any other unlocked Intel tablets?

I will have to look when I get home, next one above default, I can't remember what default is, I want to say I used 10 x 30, see if default is 10 x 24, if it is then I used 10 x 30.

I only have two Intel tablets, dell version same as your, unlocked, other is iview and it is locked, I don't know of any other device first hand that is unlocked.

I think @social-design-concepts posted he was working on one, as for me a week ago, I would have said no, complete waste of my time. But if Alexander Weggerle (Intel) keeps his word, then yes I will do what I can to build, compile, port a rom.

@vampirefo
Have you considered compiling a ROM?

Well still no word from Alex, I did go ahead and download aosp. It's way behind cm, wouldn't compile on my crunch machine, so I booted into old mint, it's a year since I used it, downgraded java on it now all ok as far as compiling, I am compiling now, on this old os will take a while.

I still wait for Alex to post his info, I can then add his changes to my build.

Well it appears to have completed. I got things to do now, but will test later, I guess many things wont work, might not even boot, lol.
It's a start and with Alex's info if he does follow through, the rom should work correctly.

I have

Just doing some quick research, if the Dell venue 8 3830 is intel atom z2580 and the 3730 is z2560, it looks as though that is the only difference (exempt obvious screen size difference).

That being said, shouldn't the same method be used to unlock Dell venue 7 as well ?

I don't have a Dell venue 7, if I did I would have already tried it, you may try if you like, of course if it fails you are on your own.

I'm very tempted, what should I investigate prior to doing this ? ... I don't expect a step by step tutorial but if you can give me the jist I'll do some research.

If I can always get back into the bootlauncher I can recover stock roms again using the toolkit, if there's a chance it'll brick I want to do some serious digging and cross referencing. Am I on the right track in thinking I need to extract some things and compare how the partitions are mapped between the 2 devices?

Appreciate your guidance!

It works but you'll have no display until the device goes to sleep and you wake it up they're are a number of other stability issues as well. Over mounting mmc emmc sleep of death.

The chips being different is a big deal in and of its self now through in gpio and touch controllers screen controllers.

Then through in the fact that there are different versions of the 2560 and 2580 chips depending on features of the soc and pin out.

Way more diff under the hood than just the screen and chip.

But yes the basic process for unlocking is the same if we only had the needed ifwi file.

If you didn't know I have the 3730 so I've already explored this over and over again.

If you use this option be sure your familiar with the xfstk downloader and the unbricking process I have the files in the myKIT_BATCH thread

@vampirefo sorry my post was non related to the touch recovery care if I test it in the tethered environment
