Hi everybody,

I recently bought the mini7 from focalprice, and was able to root it using the same tool used for the No.1 P7.

I was noticing some applications weren't available for the device on Google Play store, and decided to try changing the build.prop to use product.model=Nexus 7 and product.brand=google.... big mistake. When I rebooted, the tablet was in the android animated boot logo and would never end.

If I hold the power+volUP button, I get the dead android icon with "No Command" displaying on the screen. It looks like I might be in recovery mode. If I hit a few buttons, eventually the install zip/adb sideload/etc come up. I tried using the ADB commands, however it doesn't look like I am able to use this method.

I was wondering if someone can post their mini7's build.prop file. I am planning on making an update.zip file to flash it instead of using adb, since I can't get adb to work properly.


I actually made a backup of it prior to my changes, but I copied to to /sdcard (which it actually should have been /sdcard1). I don't want to open up the unit to get the internal sdcard if I don't have to...

On another note, excellent phablet! Very fast, good data speeds and very good build quality.

If you can boot into recovery and/or you're getting the dead Android, that's excellent news.

Have you tried [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]. You can flash it, or download it and extract the build.prop
Thanks Gizbeat. I haven't tried that rom yet.. I wanted to try the flashing of the build.prop so I wouldn't have to redo all my settings. How do you extract the build.prop out of a rom without flashing it?

One other concern I have is that the details on needrom indicate it is a 6589, whereas this is an MTK8389. (I believe they're pretty much the same)

This looks like one from the MTK8389.

What is the best way to extract the boot.prop from the system.img file? I've tried a few tutorials, but none seem to be able to open the system.img (Tried mounting in Linux, as well as a few ext4 file explorer tools).
