kind of lame

Well there goes that... I thought maybe someone on XDA would have had something, saw this and was like yes!!! I didn't waste my money on a Walmart purchase of a cheapo tablet. Well yeah.... *SIGH* All because the thank you button wasn't pushed enough? Maybe there are not that many people (owners of this tablet on XDA) yet to push the button?

I know I would have pushed it, but you won't find out now... :(

Also didn't realize that pushing the button made people this depressed? Wonder how we'll all survive the Zombocalypse if people don't start pushing the thank you button? Just saying.... :silly::eek:

Vampirefo, I really wish you had not killed this one. Yes, people are sh---ts. But not all you know. I for one appreciate all the work you have done on this tablet. Cheap with a lot of upside potential. And if you really brick it, you are only out $78! Any chance of your reconsidering re-posting the links and taking up the cause again?

The ARES should live!!!!

I for one think that YES there are MANY and MANY an asshole on the internet, But this Tablet does have some great potential., And now there is also the ARES 8L with has the EXACT same hardware as the ARES 8 but also has support for 4G LTE Data, through Verizon, I think,.... ANyway I would love to see more done with this Tablet., I myself have gotten into a Jam., I rooted my ARES removed the encryption and installed TWRP recovery., But I was playing around later, actually using an official NextBookusa.com flashing tool, (i know stupid idea) and I formatted the System partition., So now all I can do with the Tab is boot into TWRP or boot into the Bootloader... It sucks., I need a TWRP backup that I could download and place on my SD card., But it seems that there was a lot of excitement (or at least activity) about this tablet for a while and then it all just died away., I personally would LOVE to see it come back.,

-Eric

P.S. If anybody out there would be willing to upload a copy of their TWRP backup from an ARES 8 that would be awesome!! Please just PM me...

P.P.S If I knew how to make my own custom mod I would... My lack of knowledge in that area is almost criminal....

This is project is no longer supported, I have removed the links and killed this project.
Please reconsider your decision......

Or at least replace the links and just let everybody know that you will not be doing any future work on the project?

The ARES is the ONLY tablet I own, I don't have the budget to buy anything else and currently my ARES tablet has no OS installed at all., I NEED a ROM, or even just a TWRP backup of the original!!! Otherwise all I have is a paper weight and not even $78 in my wallet to buy another....

I implore you good sir, at least replace/ re-post some working links before you walk away from the project...

vampirefo I don't suppose you either still have this file or a bone stock boot and system img for the 5.1.1 firmware do you? This device was given to my roomie's daughter and the only way I could recover it was with your other rom. I mostly want the 5.1.1 image for updated blobs and build.prop, but having the images would help with other projects I'm considering.

I was interested in this. Damaged mine trying to use this and other techniques so left it sit to gather dust. I find that someone in another thread finally did it where I could understand it. It's a pity patience is in such short supply.

For anyone that comes across this needing a custom rom or needs to install a system after wiping there NXA8QC116 or NXA116QC164 my post should help anyone with either of these two devices, files that are need can be found searching google. I also plan to post link to the files I used as soon as I can. For now you can email me at [email protected]
