Installing Android from scratch

Let's say that your device never had an Android OS, and you always wanted to work with this system. This is also quite feasible. Installing Android on the tablet from scratch will be a more complex task than the previous one, however, the result justifies the effort expended.

Let's consider the scheme how to install a new Android on the tablet:

• First you need to connect the tablet to your computer. We also need a flash card with a capacity of 4 GB or more.
• Find information about the tablet model, and then find the desired firmware on the Internet.

Important! It is not recommended to download questionable programs - it's better to download everything from the official website of manufacturers.

• As with flashing, it is better to keep the tablet fully charged, since the device can "sit down" in the actual download process, which can cause serious problems. The optimal solution is to put the tablet on charge all the time while the download is in progress.
• Just in case, create a backup copy. If something suddenly goes wrong, this copy can restore everything to its original state.
• Next - use the FAT32 program to format the flash card. Now create a directory SCRIPT, throwing all downloaded files for the firmware.

Important! All these manipulations must be done on your computer, not on the tablet.

• Now turn off the tablet, insert into it a flash drive with firmware files. After enabling, the update process will start automatically. This can take quite some time. After the installation is complete, the device turns itself off.
• Then remove the flash drive and turn on the tablet again.
• Now check to see if all functions work properly. If something works "crooked", it's better to immediately return everything to the initial settings and repeat the operation again.

The entire installation process of Android on the tablet is not something complicated. In this you are now convinced. You have only to choose a more convenient method for yourself, and do everything as described in the instructions of this article.
