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.

First of all, I would like to thank in advance the guys who answer my questions.
1)I ve read some threads about Xoom and I see most of you are in 3.2 and in Europe we don't have even 3.1 . How can I make it to be a US version to get the updates? Is it safe or should I wait?
2)My first priority is to find a way to root my device. I saw a one-click root way but the files are offline from xda and it says that it has issues with EUR versions. Whats your advice? Can you help me with the steps because I dont have much android knowledge?
3)Whats your opinion about custom roms for Xoom and how can I flash from 3.01?
Thanks again, and if you have any suggestions on what apps you love using in your xoom it would be great
Apps go the apps section and read.
Changing to us version and flashing roms etc go to the development section and read.
You clearly don't like to chat m8, If I found a topic for EUR but the links are offline as I said before. There are people who like to share their knowledge thats why its a q/a thread and not app section or dev section.

Hi there, welcome to the Xoom family.
Like every family, some members like to talk and others don't.
It's true that the threads you want are mostly in the Development section.
Since you are on Wifi only it should be pretty easy for you to flash the US wifi image (you will actually find that in the 1st post in General) but you should read a bit just to make sure you know what steps to take. Also, language packs are available if you need a language other than English, French or Spanish, but there may be some complications.
I would advise you against using any type of one click rooting method. The Xoom is easy to unlock and root, but is more complicated than many phones. On the plus side, it's pretty hard to brick as long as you follow instructions. Prepare to use adb and you'll do fine. Once you've unlocked and flashed the US image, you will get the OTA updates as soon as you are on a wifi connection. This is where you need to see which rooting method will be best for you. You will need to install the Tiamat Clockwork Mod Recovery 3.2.0.0 (from solarnz's thread) so you can flash from the micro sdcard) There are ways to root from 3.0, 3.1 and from 3.2. Head over to the Development section and look for what you want. Once you are rooted, check out the Team Tiamat Xoom Rom 2.0 Manta Ray. It really rocks. You will have to wipe user data for many of these steps, so don't bother with setting up more than you have to until you are at you final destination, so to speak.
Good luck!
Hey all,
I purchased a UK WiFi Only Xoom today, its running 3.0.1 im wondering what the best way is and what method I should use to go up to the most stable 3.2 ROM that is overclocked?
If you have a link to the best guide to follow or any suggestions please post them.
Thanks!
Well if it were me, I'd firsts change the region to US that way you'll always be up to date.
Here's the URL (copy into browser): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166106
Looks like a decent guide and once you get done with this, you can start flashing up to date roms and whatnot.
Hope this helps
Well first off claim your free keyboard, best to do that now before you mess your xoom up changing regions. motorolaxoompromotion.co.uk . Then root and go with hammerhead from team tiamat, they really are the best for making one flashable update for everyone! If you are new to android search and read about all this first!
Excuse typos, I'm on my phone
Edit: and when I say mess your xoom up, I mean it has to be done from a stock UK zoom, I did it by changing user agents in Firefox, as outlined by another thread here, but to do it now would be easiest.
Sorry its possible that i missed something in my research but I have a new Coby Kyros tablet that I had a few questions about, but mainly is it rootable, does it have a custom recovery, and are there any custom roms available to be flashed, and if so where would i go about finding them??
could i follow similar instructions to the other kyros models?
i just dont want to end up with a big paperweight, im pretty much bored of my phone now, so im moving on to 'bigger' and better things.
thanks for any help

right now , no there is no clockwork to install for the 7025 , but i am understood there is one in the works
KTZ ( kryos tablet zone ) would be a very good place for more info on this
you can install google market on the device though , there is another hread on this
super one click will root the tablet for you , all you need to ensure is the telechips usb drivers for the tablet
hope this helps some
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.
Hey guys,
I recently bought the cheap, but pretty fast "Dragon Touch X10" from TabletExpress. However, I had some troubles with the Android 4.4 installed and I was thinking to give it a try with a custom ROM. I have to say, I have been reading here for some hours, but I am kind of lost. I realize that most of the tutorials here are speicifically adressing more well-known models like samsung etc.
I think, what I want is something like the "Kangapop", a ROM which is basically like the plain android stock version from google.
Can I find somewhere instructions of how to flash such an unknown model?
Unfortunately, I cannot post the link for this tablet as a new user... The brand is "TabletExpress" and the Model is Dragon Touch X10.
Thanks in advance!
Does anybody have at least a hint where I could read or learn to figure it out by myself? I am a bit overwhelmed with the information out there.
Thanks!

Hello dear,
ROMs is specific for every device model, that means that you can't use rom from other devices for yours. :/
Thank you
