Hello all. I've Googled and read for hours and found different topics here and there, but I'm not 100% sure how or if this can even be done. I've downloaded a few roms from some Chinese site and I've even seen screen shots with the Malata Zpad UI with English writing, so I know it's out there somewhere. I would like to install this UI on my Viewsonic G Tablet. What do I have to download? And will it install the same as any other rom or is there a few extra steps I would have to take to make this happen? I've read through my searching that these are basically the same hardware wise and that the software is able to be ran on the VS, I just can't find the right directions to get this done. I know we have Zpad Clean Rom, but that doesn't have the Malata UI. Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help me.

In the Zpad thread there are some links to the most recent raw zpad images. You can flash the system image from one of those with the zpad ROM boot image or just pull the apks out of their ROM and add to zpad.

Sorry if there is a post like this somewhere, but I have searched everywhere. I have already rooted my Coby 7015 now I just need a rom to use because the factory rom freezes and is kinda slow. I'm not a complete noob, but I also don't want to brick my tablet trying to install a rom that isn't intended for my tablet.
Please advise of a rom I can install. Thanks in advance.

This may be a late reply, but for future reference (hello people from the future!) you can load a version of CyanogenMod 6 on the Coby MID7015. See here:

is this worth going to? Does it improve much?

Compared to stock out-of-the box Coby tablet? Yes. But compared to a rooted w/ market stock ROM, not really.
I love CyanogenMod, and I've been running it on my Droid for quite some time now. But the CyanogenMod ROM for the Coby tablet doesn't really improve much, and it actually hurts functionality in a few areas. I believe it is slightly faster than the stock ROM, and you gain a few custom features, but you pretty much lose all video playback including Youtube.
I'd recommend just rooting it and adding the market as explained in the "Getting the most out of Eclair" thread.
Need Help with Coby 7015a
Can somebody help me ! I have the Coby 7015a model. I downloaded the update from Coby and I don't know if it was the old update or the new update ! I completed all the directions from newbie friendly guide for rooting and google market install on windows. I got to the part where the "su" is entered and the $ is suppose to change to #. Didn't happen ! I get the message about superuser, but the symbol is still $. If I type in the flash_image info, it comes back with flash_image: permission denied. I very frustrated and this is my first exprience with one of these so I am definitly a "newbie" ! My sister bought this for my 90 year old mom who loves to read but is starting to have trouble seeing. She can read with this but I haven't be able to download any books ! Any advice will be greatly appreciated !
What it boils down to is that Coby made it slightly more difficult to root this latest version. Your best bet is probably to go over to the Androidtablets.net forum and read through the sticky posts at the top of the Coby forum. Especially the post titled "New update.zip from Coby (build MID7015A 1.6a 1/26/11)". It should have all the details for you.
After hearing there will be another new 10K gtablet owners, some of them may want to install custom ROMs on it. There are plenty of instructions and help all over the gtablet forums. However, I am one of those people who do not like to read a lot... So.. here you go..
Good Luck and thanks Roebeet, ehunyadi, Zentath, evocre8r and pensacolacomps.

The step is very similar to install TNT lite. Instead of using the TNT lite.zip file, replace it with the vegan.5.1.zip file.
The key is make sure you get the correct version of clockworkmod.

there are updated version of clockworkmod but the one we recommend is ClockworkMod 0.8. please take a look at the first page of this thread and it includes the correct version of clockworkdmod.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
I would suggest to read through the instructions and watch the how-to videos few times before flashing a new ROM. Good luck!

Well XDA, we don't have a dedicated section for the Toshiba Thrive 10.1 inch Tablet. What the hell?? lol. Anyways, got this bad boy yesterday, it's a beast.
Uploaded the system dump here.
Mirrors (from multiupload): http://www.multiupload.com/FV7V27MCMP
Has a few cool things. The bootscreen is pretty impressive, if you haven't seen it already.
If this has been helpful to you, take just a second and press the thanks button below!
Also tried rooting it, no go yet. Only tried Gingerbreak and the Gingerbreak apk. Gingerbreak apk just crashed on open, and Gingerbreak via SuperOneClick just say there on "Running."
Edit: Root Tutorial here.

Toshiba Thrive 10.1" Honeycomb 3.1 Tablet - System Dump
Uploading is done! Check first post for link!
Thanks for this, I soft-bricked my recovery and needed an image to reflash
is this pre-OTA or post-OTA? Thanks for the up!
Does it have a recovery.img? I'm trying to restore mine from a soft-brick and don't see it, or is recovery-from-boot.p the image?

Honeycomb 3.1, so I guess post-ota? I didn't know they had an OTA already to be honest.

Hmm... Any idea where I would find the recovery.img for you? Or how I would compile it.
nevermind, the recovery-on-boot.p restored my stock recovery its all good
I triedflashing all of the tablet CWmod recoveries and none of them worked. E-mailed Koush to see if I can help out with make one for the thrive but I'm not really a porgrammer...
Hello,
can you also post a kernel dump?
I am one of the cyanogenmod developers of the Folio 100 tablet and would like to check if the devices are compatible to each other.
Thank you, Artem

Check out thriveforums for that stuff. XDA took too long to get this board up(over a month) so development had to establish itself somewhere else.
I would like to see everything here. after awhile those indi sites just kind of dry up. not to mention it a pita.
DerArtem,
hope you can do something with CM and the thrive, getting tired of the same stock based rom

I've been reading this "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101094&page=183" post for a long time where they public a CyanogenMod that can be installed on certain models of tablets. I realize that there are two kinds of Coby Kyros MID 7015, One that comes with GB and other that don't.
I have the non-GB tablet, allready rooted and using a watery rom but i think that CyanogenMod will work a better, so...
In that forum they said that there's a rom for the non-GB tablet, but i was unable to find it. I would like if anyone could help me telling me where's the file or where to search.
If there's any procedure besides to install CWM on a rooted table, so please let me know.
Thanks for answering.
