The process of flashing Allwinner processor tablet on Android
As an example, I will describe the entire process using the Ross&Moor RMD-974R model.
To reflash tablets on the Allwinner processor, we need a file in the .img (IMAGEWTY) format, which can usually be found on the manufacturer's website or on special forums.
Also the program PhoenixSuit and a computer running Windows 7 or X

And we complete the installation by pressing (C)
After installation, a new shortcut will appear on your desktop.
- Launch the program and in the window that opens, click Firmware
- Click IMAGE and specify the location of our firmware
- Now turn off the tablet, hold down the volume button V+ and connect to the computer. Now press the power button 4-6 times until a window pops up asking you to format the built-in memory

A pop-up window will notify you that the process has completed successfully.
