Root [TUT] How to Unbrick Micromax Funbook Pro p500

[cool.gautam]

Hello guys first all of all just forthe info Allwinner A10 tablet cant be hard bricked! You can always flash a livesuit.img and restore your tab back! We dont have the original liveusit.img of the tab but i manage to get back on stock with few steps and this method is confirmed and tested!!

Requirements -
ADB Drivers ( ADB_Drivers.rar - 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download )
USB Mouse
Little Brain

Note : If you have CWM installed onyur tab you can simply Restore from your restored backup if you dont have one here it is

Step 1 : - Download the software called Livesuit you can easily google it and find it but here's treat for you!

Step 2 : - Download this image http://www.yarvik.com/userfiles/yarvikfirmware/TAB461EUK_A404.img

Step 3 : - Extract Livesuit software and open Livesuit.exe -- > Whataver pop-ups come just click no! -- > Click on select image and browse to the downloaded TAB461 .img and leave the software as it is

Step 4 : - Now connect your tablet ( make sure it is turned off not in recovery or something , you can do this by holding power button for long ) to the pc/laptop by holding back button! as soon as you attach usb , while holding back button press 'power' button 10 times repeatedly!
Wait and a pop up will come Click 'YES' 2 times it will take 2 mins to flash the image and u will soon boot up!

Step 5 :- Touch wont work on this image! So connect your wired mouse with OTG cable and install CWM and then the backup! as described below

Gautam - No window pop-up after repeated attempts and if I click sysupdate it says "No Device Found". Please help.

P.S: To land in this problem all I did was try to move the busybox from xbin to bin and used ADB to change install location. I had done this before and the tab was working fine until one fine day it reset itself and wiped clean (back to internal memory full)

thanks mate for this useful info.
I'm facing the same problem in my funbook talk p350. I can't find the exact firmware for it. So please help me to find out and to flash the tablet.
Anyways thanks!
