I have a MeBerry M8 tablet. TWRP does not show this device. How should I proceed to install TWRP?

What exactly do you mean?


1. Do you have the firmware
2. Is the bootloader unlocked
3. What is the chipset and Android version?

1. The only firmware I have available is on the tablet itself.
2. The developer settings has an OEM unlock which states "Allow the bootloader to be unlocked" -- I have set to on.
3. I assume you mean the processor/platform -- It is an MT8183 and the OS is Android 13
For the touch screen I see NVT-ts (i2c 1-004c)

Hope this is helpful.

Try to extract the firmware using this guide https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-46342.html
I don't know if your model has DAA/SLA so try mtk client

Thanks for the advice. I'm getting familiar with the process.

I haven't tried the extracting yet. However, I noticed the Wwr_MTK template with the chip set list does not have my MT8183 in it (don't know yet if I'd be using it). Also, I have Windows 11 pro on a virtual machine hosted on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS -- will that be a problem?

It shouldn't be a problem if USB connection is properly set up.
Try this command in mtk client

Code:

python mtk_gui.py

then connect the device while off and holding both volume buttons

Not sure what's taking place. Tried the mtk client in both gui and straight cmdline on the VM, but nothing worked. Borrowed my wife's pc (windows 11) and tried the gui -- It detected the tablet once but nothing happened. It's never detected the tablet since that first time. I've rebooted, reinstalled VCOM drivers and MTK Client. But nothing seems to work. ADB has no problem connecting.

Also should have said I tried all the combinations of up/down volume keys and power. My tablet has that single bar for volume up and down.

Try MTK Meta Utility or other tools to crash preloader to BROM

I can't get any of these utilities to work. I wonder if this particular tablet is not compatible with the current utilities.
I'm going to post a ton of info from an Android app called Device Info HW+. Let me know if this gives you any idea as to how to proceed.
