Install Android from scratch

Suppose that your device has never been running Android, and you always wanted to work with just such a system. This is also quite feasible. Installing Android on a tablet from scratch will be a more difficult task than the previous one, however, the result justifies the effort.

Consider the scheme of how to install a new Android on a tablet:

• First you need to connect the tablet to your computer. We will 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 dubious programs - it is better to download everything from the manufacturers' official website.

• As with flashing, it is better to keep the tablet fully charged, as the device may “sit down” during the boot process, which can cause serious problems. The best solution is to put the tablet on charge for as long as the download is in progress.
• Just in case, create a backup. If something suddenly goes wrong, with this copy you can return everything to its original state.
• Next, use the FAT32 program to format the flash card. Now create the SCRIPT directory, transferring all the files downloaded for firmware there.

Important! All these manipulations need to be done on your computer, not on your tablet.

• Now turn off the tablet, insert the USB flash drive with the firmware files into it. Once enabled, the update process will start automatically. This can take quite some time. After the installation is completed, the device will turn off by itself.
• After that, remove the flash drive and turn on the tablet again.
• Now check if all functions are working properly. If something works “crookedly”, it is better to immediately return everything to the initial settings and repeat the operation again.
