There are two sdcard storage on this device, so you must know it\u2019s at the internal sdcard or external sdcard. I prefer you to put this on external sdcard to avoid any difficulties.<\/li>\n<li>Boot into recovery mode. I believe there are no key shortcut from the power off state to enter recovery mode on this device, at least I cannot find it, \u2026 so, you can only reboot into recovery from the system, if you\u2019re using stock rom use the Reboot into Recovery from Settings -&gt; Backup&amp;Reset option menu.<\/li>\n<li>BACKUP your stock rom and data using BACKUP feature, make sure you use external storage as destination because this backup is relatively big.<\/li>\n<li>Choose <strong><em>Wipe Data \/ Factory reset<\/em><\/strong> and execute it.<\/li>\n<li>Choose <strong><em>Wipe cache partition<\/em><\/strong> and execute it<\/li>\n<li>Choose <strong><em>Wipe Dalvik Cache<\/em><\/strong> and execute it<\/li>\n<li>Go back to main menu, and choose <strong><em>Install<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<li>It will open a list of file on your sdcard, choose the custom rom zip file that you put on step 1 and flash it.<\/li>\n<li>After the installation completed, choose <em><strong>Reboot System<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Done<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here is the result after flash :<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ggd5-workspace.png\" rel=\"lightbox[4209]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4213 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ggd5-workspace-176x300.png\" alt=\"ggd5-workspace\" width=\"176\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ggd5-apps.png\" rel=\"lightbox[4209]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4214 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ggd5-apps-176x300.png\" alt=\"ggd5-apps\" width=\"176\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ggd5-about.png\" rel=\"lightbox[4209]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4215 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ggd5-about-176x300.png\" alt=\"ggd5-about\" width=\"176\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>UPDATE 04072014 :<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Here is the screenshots for 04072014 update :<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/device-2014-07-08-093931.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[4209]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4303 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/device-2014-07-08-093931-176x300.jpg\" alt=\"device-2014-07-08-093931\" width=\"176\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/device-2014-07-08-093949.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[4209]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4304 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/device-2014-07-08-093949-176x300.jpg\" alt=\"device-2014-07-08-093949\" width=\"176\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/device-2014-07-08-094013.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[4209]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4305 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/device-2014-07-08-094013-176x300.jpg\" alt=\"device-2014-07-08-094013\" width=\"176\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>&#8212; end of UPDATE 04072014 &#8212;<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Some other notes from me :<\/h4>\n<h3>How to use the Xposed Framework<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I create separate page to explain this, so i don\u2019t have to explain over and over again on each article, please Go <a title=\"How to use the Xposed Framework and Gravity box\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/?page_id=3397\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.\u00a0 For you who called customization junkies, this is a must have application.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy your PICOpad 7E GGD5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a custom rom 4.4.2 for the 7inch tablet PICOpad GGD5 model also known as PICOpad 7E that using Allwinner Dual core a23 chipset and had a 1024\u00d7600 px resolution.
