How to enter flash mode
To use mtkclient, hold down the power button until it shuts off. It should then enter preloader mode within a few seconds.
For fastboot, hold down Volume Up + Power while the device is off and then select the fastboot option. You can also use adb reboot fastboot
.
Installation
Use pmbootstrap to build your own installation image.
$ pmbootstrap init
$ pmbootstrap install --fde
You can then use mtkclient to flash the boot.img:
$ pmbootstrap export
$ mtk w boot /tmp/postmarketOS-export/boot.img
Notes
- ↑ This is actually a pre-built kernel, as Walmart has not provided the kernel source tree as of writing this.
- ↑ There are multiple models of the Onn Tablet Gen 3 with different screen sizes and colors, but the hardware is the same.
- ↑ The CPU itself is 64-bit, but the stock android build is 32-bit. It might be possible to boot 64-bit postmarketOS with u-boot, however that has not been tested yet.
