KKMOD is ROM for the 8" imx515 tablet(1 or 2 speakers model) users based on the following original image (http://www.hiapad.com/bbs/viewthread...extra=page%3D1)
Note that there seem to be 1 known model which seem to use a realtek wifi hardware. This rom will not have a working wifi for this model. There are also 1 to 2 users who have trouble flashing the new rom so try it at your own risk.
Hightlights:

1. Download KKMod Romkit v1.2 and burn to CD/DVD
2. Bootup RomKit
3. Bootup tablet and connect usb cable to PC and Tablet

Additional Information:
G-sensor configuration:
The sensor is expected to work out of the box for single speaker model. If you should however encountered inverted/side inverted issue, you can tune the sensor position using build.prop.
ro.sf.gsensor.position(value can be 0,1,2,3) and ro.sf.gsensor.xy(value can be 0,1). Try around different combination of position and xy.
Default is 0 for both if you did not add the parameter.
Known working config:
- Default work for single speaker model
- ro.sf.gsensor.xy=1, ro.sf.gsensor.position=2 (confirm working for a few users on dual speakers model)
Setting Date/Time:
Only the setting the time will save the date/time into the right hardware clock. If you want to change the date only, you will still need to set the time.
Factory Reset:
It is recommended to do a one time factory reset when you first flash the ROM especially if you are upgrading from 2.2
Settings->Privacy->Factory Reset
If after upgrading the rom, you get into a bootloop and is unable to do factory reset. Connect to ADB while in bootloop and run "adb shell wipe data". Thanks alistassio for sharing
Possible Improvement Plan:
- Improve touchscreen driver
- Add battery calibration?
- Build and hacked kernel image from freescale source
- Add "build.prop" management in settings(such as sensors hw orientation/date correction)
- Replace text-based calibration to graphical?
Known Issues
- One reported case of consistent tablet hung when changing date
** fixed in v.2.3.3.r02**
- One reported case of unable to wakeup from standby
** known issue with freescale code that after 10+ times of going to standby. Tablet may not be able to resume. Make sure to shtudown tablet when not in use**
- internal /sdcard get un-mounted when usb drive is connected
- menu/back soft button work intermittently
** fixed **
- bluetooth will not turn on if you connect bluetooth after you boot up due to permission isuse. It will also not work if you connect/disconnect/connect as the bluetooth device id get changed.
- 3g data will not work as Phone.apk will caused status bar to crashed
** this is due to updateDataIcon() which need to be fixed **
