For some reason after like two days my next 3 asked me to update automatically.ALl you have to do is connect a usb cord to the pc and then turn off usb and it will update on its own and go into recovery.

So great ..thank u

Greetings all!
I have made several attempts at installing Market on my Next3 tablet with varying failures. Here is what I've done (with some details for those who haven't gotten this far):
1. Downloaded update.img from the provided link onto my Windows 7 64 bit PC.(I assume update.img to be a compressed opsys file which the Nextbook's Linux opsys recognizes (by its name/extension) and automatically launches it.)
2. With the Next3 running, I connect the USB cord to my computer.
3. I copy the update.img to the root of my 4gig sdhc card. (root being NOT in a folder or directory but at the top of the dir tree i.e. ROOT)
4. from my PC, I click on Safely Remove Hardware icon (found in the system tray) and disconnect the Next3 Tablet.
5. As soon as the PC disconnects the Next3 Tablet, a bar pops up on the Next3 screen asking if I wish to install the newly found update.img. (I disconnect the USB cord prior to answering)
6. I tell Next3 to install.
7. The screen displays update.img's installation progress and then reboots.
8. After Next3 arrives at the HOME page, I access SETTINGS-> WIRELESS & NETWORKS and enable an internet connection
9. Then I access APPS (middle icon at the bottom of the screen) and tap MARKET.
10. I am then asked for a google login. I provide a GMAIL e-mail address
11. I am prompted to accept a license agreement (don't recall which came first #10 or 11)
12. After a few moments, there is the huge list of apps!!!
13. Have done this 3 times now. I have never been able to actually download an app. It always fails.
14. On the first occasion, I checked to clear the cache as mentioned in item #5 of the instructions on this page: Market Fix if not working
15. I found every time that I followed this step, the only item cache that was not grayed out was Market.
16. QUESTION! Exactly what means "Reboot Device"? (Item #6 of the instructions). Does it mean powering down (shutting off) the Next3 and then turning it back on or is it referring to the RESET button on the back of the Next3?
17. I powered it off and then turned it back on; still no luck downloading. Each and every time, it failed.
18. I then redid steps 2 thru 10. This time, the same google e-mail login (I believe) would not allow me to connect to the Market network.
19. I then redid steps 2 thru 10 AGAIN. This time, using a different Google gmail account. I was successful connecting to the Market Network.
20. and again, see #13
21. and again, see #15 - 17
So there you have it. Truly wish to get this installed. I welcome any suggestions!
Thank you!

can you post the link other than megaupload since they are shutdown now

Any one has that rooting file for nextbook3 please?
I heard about the ing file that worked for many people but I could not find it because Megaupload is shutdown. can someone give a substitute link or post the file here please.
Thanks in advance

Current update.img file location
Hello All,
I am new to the forum. I recently acquired the Next3 and wanted to install the the market. Was excited someone had worked on the image.
Can someone forward the file to me? The download location provided is no longer valid.
Your help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Luis

I too am looking for the download link (that works - - poor Megaupload) to mod a friend's Next3.
If I can't get root and the market on this thing for him, I will have to try to figure out how to tell him he bought a crap tablet.
Thank you for any help you can provide!!

I Fixed it
A few small things:
Intel should be intel.
Under CPU Optimization:
"Samsung’s CPU is set by default the run at 1gHz."
The should be to.
Sideloading:
"(don’t forget that after you install it from the market you still have to go to your app drawer and run busybox once so it installs)."
Should this be after you download it from the market?
ClockworkMod Recovery:
"ClockworkMod written for us by a developer that goes by the name of Koush"
Missing is.
"This gent puts a ton of work into helping us captivate owners out"
Replace puts with put and Capitalize Captivate.
Changing Your Messaging Ringtone:
"well the ones that matter anyway.."
Extra period.
Other than that, excellent guide. I'll definitely be using it when my Captivate arrives.

Hi,
Thanks for publishing this. It looks very useful, similar to Energy ROM.. But I am very new to Android phones (trying this on Samsung Captivate from AT&T, bought yesterday). I am running windows 7 ultimate 64bit and I exactly followed this guide. But somehow I am still not able to see the sd card. I tried placing the update.zip at Computer\SGH-I897\Phone and shut down the phone and tried restarting the phone by holding the up/down keys as well as power button. But after selecting reinstall packages it said could not find /sdcard/update.zip.. Pls held. Again very sorry if I did some mistake..

The SD card is simply the root directory of your phone. You do not need to open a folder, it is the highest folder you can place it in. Hope that helps
Somehow it was not able to find the sdcard root. Then I realized that you mentioned something called as Droid Explorer, I searched for it and installed it on my PC. But when I opened Droid Explorer, my device was not recognized, then I clicked on link on the explorer window, upon watching that video I enabled the USB Debugging, then I was able to see my device, then I selected connect to my device. After that I saw an explorer but it had empty root and I was not able to copy anything. There was a menu button at the top row named "Transfer to device or Copy to device" I selected that and selected update.zip file and tried to transfer. Something happened but still explorer was empty. Then from my phone Top slide down menu I selected mount USB storage and I started seeing windows explorer on my PC. Then apart from other folders I could see a folder sd in the root. Then I again put update.zip in the root.
Then followed the restart sequence, this time it found the file but exited after Signal 7. It was trying to asert something but could not find the correct model number I guess. My cell phone's model number is Samsung i897.
Please help

I did not write the PC instructions, so I can not help you (I only have a Mac). But the person who did can probably help you his username is systoxity.
Because not enough errors were found to make it worthwhile to update the PDF i will wait till tomorrow to fix the minor errors.
Good source of information
Thank you for putting this together. I am going to sticky this for the time being.
For installing the latest version of busy box, you should include that before the instructions for running titanium backup...the latest version of busybox installed from the market will work with titanium backup so theres no need to have to click the "problems" button...this way you wont have to do the busybox download step twice...should also save a few megs since titanium backup wont have its own copy of busybox installed BTW nice guide
You can also just mount the phone memory using windows explorer and move the file over. I was never able to get droid explorer to transfer the file. It always said it went but then was never there.
Anyway all I did was connected just as I was going to connect to kies but then when windows asked me what I wanted to do I clicked on open file view and dropped updated.zip on my phone.
Only issue that I had with rooting was I accidentally opened the file in windows(winrar). After I moved the file over it found it and attempted to install it but then exited with an error(do not remember exact error), but had to do with mounting. Anyway I re-downloaded file and saw file size was different. After I moved the file over again everything went great. I still haven't removed bloat-ware and such but thats next on the agenda.
Also I was on windows 7 64 bit, saw some other users in other threads saying they had issues connecting the phone. Everything so far has worked great for me
Thank you very much for this handy pdf file!
Somelinks aren't working
First of all I have to say very good guide for noobs!
1. when I downloaded the update.zip folder I didn't work I guess because the name of Samsung captivate is not in the folder or something. So I just downloaded the other file from the forums.
2. Link to CPU optimization doesn't work.
3. I downloaded the droid explorer. It connected to my phone but I was unable to transfer anything. So I just tapped on the USB connected in the notification bar and mounted the phone. This allowed me to use windows explorer to transfer files. I believe one can transfer files by selecting the option of Samsung Kies under USB settings.
I got all your feedback. It will all be corrected by tomorrow night.
Cool guide however the rumor is the GPS only gets turned on when pulling up an App that uses it, so that step in the "battery saving" section might not be necessary.
Also you may want to replace Market Enabler with Market Access. It's a rehash of Market Enabler but also has a Set on Boot option that keeps it persistent versus being reset each time.
You also Might want to add a Tips/Tricks Section..
Here You can put some cool tips like the one i found out about backlight control.

[How To] Install The New GOT Update On Milestone

Hello My Friends I've Heard You Are Having Troubler Installing The New Upgrade Or Understanding What Is Needed To Be Done.
Note: THIS IS A WINDOWS BASED HOW TO AND WILL WORK ON WINDOWS ONLY​
Before I Start I must Say, This Is a combination of process and I have not created any of those files or own the right to them so all the links are the same links found on other posts from where i got the info, so by downloading those files you are, supporting them not me i take no credit for this work
Well Here Is the quick Easy Guide In How To Do This
-Fist we Need To Get The Tools To Perform This Operation
pulled From This Tread we need
1. Motorola Drivers For Either 32 or 64 Bits
2. RSD Lite, witch is a tool for flashing your phone.
3. The GOT Open Recovery ToolUpdate: Added Latest version from G.O.T.'S Blog
4.The Firmware Files From Got

EDIT: G.O.T. Has Added the burnerable open recovery to these sfb files so no need to flash it latter
-Now That We Have The Stuff We Need We are going to do it, fist i must say that unlike other roms that are applied by a backup restore (corect me if im whrong) this is a full flash and its going to reset everything so no apps will remain no setting will remain and is highly recommended that you uninstall every app you have, don't back them up(except for apps some apps that have a create backup file, those seem to work) just uninstall them, and when we are done have them installed again, Here Is A Tool That Will Help You Get There Faster
1.ok you have everything uninstalled right? now time for some action
2.install the proper divers (32 or 64)
3.install the RSD Lite tool
4.unzip the 2.2.1 FIRMWARE FILES you downloaded and you will find a ".sbf" file
5.now connect your phone to USB cable and turn it off
6.boot it in boot-loader mode (press the D-PAD UP key while pressing the power button), some night need you to release the button after a minute, a black screen will be shown on your phone and you will see the divers being installed on your computer.
7.when drivers are done open the RSD Lite tool and your device should appear you can click on it to see details.
8.now click on the "..." buttons that are close to the start button and look for the ".sbf" file, after a couple of seconds it should be ready to start
9.press the start button and do not unplug the cable or let your computer show the screen saver or go to sleep, the posses must not be stopped while it has started .
10.when the posses is done the devise will restart and voala, you have 2.2
-As GOT stands there are some bugs on the firmware and they have developed a fix to them and get root and overclock, here is what you have to do.
1. unzip the got open recovery tool into the root of your SD card
2.check this quote
NOTE: On some devices, we have encountered that rooting directly after flashing without rebooting after the initial flash can bring some issues with RootExplorer not asking for root permissions. To be safe, reboot after flash so that the “welcome to milestone” menu comes up, set up the device in general, then reboot to recovery and root the device as well as apply our 2.2.1 tweaks with Launcher, Services.jar fix and Wireless Tethering app.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this means if the fist time your milestone got restarted and you saw "Welcome to Milestone" Message You are good an you can root.
but if you didn't then restart you phone and see if the message comes out, if not , a factory reset should have that scree message shown.
3. open the open recovery by pressing camera and power button at the same time while the device id off. you should see a scree with a "!" symbol on it then press fist volume rocker up button a leave it pressed then press camera button, some letter will pop out.
4. using the pad scroll down to "apply update.zip", after a couple of seconds the GOT menu should pop out (everything from now on uses the pad)
5.root your phone (why not)
6.go down to "Launch 2.2.1 Menu" Option.
7.Here you will see the "Fix Bugs They Are Talking About
One of the first things you should do is use the “Fix 2.2.1 bugs” selection in the new OR 2.2.1 menu after you flash the sbf file.
This tweak will fix some of the issues with the generic sbf build such as dual USB notifications, replacing some stock Motorola applications such as the old launcher/mediagallery and adding the Wireless Tethering application.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
8. there is the overclock too.
Now your device should have all the things you need to start playing with it,I encourage you to check on some tweaks the GOT team might have, and you might want.
I Hope This Was Helpful enjoy ^_^

something i don't get
I updated the firmware with RSD Lite, and used the one click tool, because:
whenever i try to hit update.zip i will get an errormessage, stating that these blocks couldn't be found -> ergo, the card not be mounted.
The HTC stuff i always managed, but this one is a mistery to me. Also, i did format fat32, pushed the stuff and then straight on bootup trying to hit the update.zip, without success.
I've read about how other people solved that problem, none of those approaches helped me.
Any hint is more than welcome.
2 bugs i've discovered so far: Battery drain like almost to be declared useless, some market apps "vanish" after installing them. I suppose those fixes would have done the job. I might attempt to use root explorer and execute the scripts like that, still I'd like to know why I'm unable to get the update.zip, resp. the G.O.T or any other "intelligent" boot menu installed.
Edit2: Even when installing the vulnerable sbf, i still get the error: E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 ....

Using a virtual machine (virtualizing WinXP) that has USB support (eg Oracle VM VirtuaBox, since VirtualBox OSE does not support USB forwarding) can do this pretty easy. So no worries when trying this via a VM.
i try to instal GOT and its succesfull.
but why i install the application not bring to SD card
but still bring to internal memory
many said 2.2 automatic have app2sd
can you help me?

Backflip follow up

IM POSTING THIS THREAD AS A FOLLOW UP FOR THOSE WHO USED MY ROOT PROCEDURE AND DOWNLOAD FOR THE BACKFLIP AND THIS WILL BE TELLING YOU WHICH FILE IS THE ROM MANAGER IN THE TOOLS DIRECTORY OF THE SDK I PROVIDED AND HOW TO INSTALL IT! and also a tethering app!
IF YOU JUST WANT TO TETHER WIFI SKIP THIS AND GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS THREAD. THIS ROM IS NOT NEEDED TO DO SO!
I AM ASSUMING YOU ALREADY KNOW AS I TOLD YOU IN THE 1ST THREAD YOU NEED TO BE IN USB DEBUGGING AND CHARGE ONLY WHILE USING SDK TOOLS CMD OR THE PUSHES OR INSTALLS WILL FAIL!
1st and foremost i HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU MAKE A BACKUP! go here~~> http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...nandroid-backup-and-clockworkmod-rom-manager/ (i take no credit for this backup tutorial all credit goes to Artem Russakovskii @ androidpolice
NOW IF YOU DID THAT IM ASSUMING YOU NOW HAVE THE ROM MANGER APP! if not you must be awfully confident! (and you still need ROM manager from the market...) i dont think u need the paid version to do this but just in case download the free version and in the tools directory of the sdk i provided, the pay version is there just open the command MAKE SURE YOUR CONNECTED (TYPE "ADB DEVICES" AGAIN NO QUOTES DUH!! AND MAKE SURE YOUR SERIAL NUMBER COMES UP ON DEVICE LIST)and simply copy and paste
adb install com.koushikdutta.rommanager.license.apk (YOU MUST ALREADY HAVE THE FREE VERSION!) NOW THIS APP IS INSTALLED ALREADY WITH NO PROMPTS!
NOW FOR THE ROM!
get it here~~> http://www.uploading.com/files/9d5m32fc/signed-j_r0dd.preclair.v1.0.2.zip/ (i take no credit for this ROM all thanks and credit go to J_r0dd @ modmymobile!) (DO NOT UNZIP)(there are other places to get this ROM but i forgot where exactly i got it so i just uploaded it myself!
I tried to push the ROM to my sd thru adb and for some reason couldnt ?!?!?! WHO KNOWS! maybe u know the codes better than me! BUT IF NOT NO WORRIES! just open your notification bar and assuming you havent unplgged your usb yet, select usb connected then select usb drive(or use a sd reader and transfer that way!)
now right click and copy the zip file and paste (DO NOT DRAG AND DROP WEATHER USING YOUR PHONE OR A READER) it onto your SD cards ROOT (not in any folder JUST DIRECTLY ON THE SD CARD!) it will take a few being that its 80+ Mb in size
With that done we will go back to the ROM manager and select Flash ROM from SD card. You will be prompted to "wipe data and cache" and "backup the system" Being that you have already backed up the system using the search info provided above (I HOPE FOR YOUR SAKE) just click wipe data and cache follow the prompts and the manager will do the rest! Your phone will shut down reboot and you will get the motorola screen twice like usual and then an android icon will draw its self out and flash green! (WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?) and this will stay for 1 to several minutes DONT BE ALARMED THIS IS OK! then your phone will load. Now you can put in your blur account info and whatever else you choose! any apps that you paid for prior to this will still be saved in the google cloud and will be available to reinstall from the market! YOU CAN NOW USE LIVE WALLPAPERS AND MANY MANY OTHER THINGS YOU COULDNT BEFORE ALL LISTED AT MODMYMOBILE Just look up J_r0dd's PRECLAIR and he has a list of the ups, downs, and all arounds! AND AGAIN ALL THANKS TO J_r0dd for the ROM and to Artem Russakovskii for the BACKUPS
NOW after this (not imporntant just really cool to have!) hook up your Phone through SDK (If you disconnected that is!)... type "adb install barnacle-24.apk" and for the last time NO QUOTES DUH! this app is in the SDK tools you downloaded from me already and AT&T has it blocked from the market! (your welcome again ) now in your app drawer you will find barnacle wifi tether open it click the button left of your home button (three hollow squares and a solid square also know as the settings button lol) check "skip wpa_supplicant" and hit the back button and you are ready to tether wifi to anything that accepts AD-HOC wifi EX. laptops PCs XBOX360 ect ect BUT unfortunately PS3 Wii DS... only run AOSS wifi

[Tutorial] Proscan PLT-7035-PL Root and install GAPPS

Rooting and installing Google Play on the Proscan PLT7035-PL ** UPDATED **
*** Disclaimer ***
I am not responsible for bricked tablets, voided warranties, crashed computers and/or global thermonuclear war! This is what worked for me if you are unsure of anything in the following steps STOP NOW! There is no factory rom released for this tablet. If you brick it your possibly stuck until if and when they release an update!
These instructions assume you are competent to do the folling: get files on and off of your device using the mass storage driver, able to edit and understand changes to inf files, use command prompt, edit system user files and have enough patence to read all of the steps without skipping any. There are a few gotcha's that if are skipped will leave you pulling your hair out. Also these instructions are written for Windows. If your using Linux you shouldn't need my help anyways ..​

This tutorial may also work on other Chinese generic tablets. You would only need get the hardware vendor and product ID's from the device info for step 2. For the purpose of this post I wont be getting into that but the information is out there.. GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND
Introduction
Its likely if you are reading you have recently visited Big Lots and scored a $69 7" tablet. Only to get home and find virtually NO information on rooting it or installing Google Play or GAPPs. I know I was in that boat but after a few hours of messing around I got it. I am writing this to hopefully help the hundreds of others I see out there asking for help on this.
Step 1 Download Stuff (Things to round up before you even think about starting)
Root with Restore by Bin4ry v15 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460 .** UPDATE ** I attached the version I used to this post
ADB Drivers - You have several options here, milage may very.** UPDATE ** I attached USB drivers to this post. I had to seperate the 64 and 32 bit drivers to get the files under the 8 mb limit for uploads
install android SDK http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r21-windows.zip and follow instructions to get the google usb drivers. Search XDA there are several guides, I couldn't find the one I used as of writing this article but there are many out there.
Search google and find a zip with just the ADB drivers.
Download Super One Click Root and use the drivers in the tools directory of the zip. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
Root Explorer - quick way to move and remount file systems rw with ease. I used v2.13.1. Google around and find an APK to install, just be careful there is another completely differnent package out there called "rooted explorer" it may work but I have not tried it. ** UPDATE ** I attached the version I used to this post
Google Apps for ICS - gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip is what I used from http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip ** Update ** I replaced the URL with a direct download link from goo.im enjoy!
**NOTE** SUPER ONE CLICK ROOT WILL NOT ROOT YOUR TABLET SO DON'T BOTHER TRYING!
Step 2 install and configure your ADB USB Drivers (Let the fun begin)
Extract your zip file containing the ADB USB drivers or Install the Android SDK and follow instructions on how to use the SDK manager to download the lastest drivers from google.
Once downloaded edit the inf file (usually named android_winusb.inf)
Add the following under the [Google.NTx86] heading and again under the [Google.NTamd64] heading: (one is for 32bit systems and the other is for 64 bit Systems)
Code:
;ProScan plt-7035
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2207&PID_0010
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2207&PID_0010&REV_0222&MI_01
After saving and exiting. Turn on USB Debugging on your tablet. It is under Settings => Developer Options and is the first option at the top make sure it has a check in the checkbox. Exit the developer screen by pressing back or the home key and plug in your tablet to a usb port on your computer using a micro-USB cable.
Device detection should at this point detect a few devices but at least 1 will fail without drivers. Possibly more on XP systems..
Under Device Manager => Other Devices you should have a device called "PLT7035-PL" use the usb drivers modifed above to install the ADB USB Drivers.
*** Important Note ***
At this point even with the ADB Driver installed ADB will not see the tablet. We have to create or edit the file c:\users\whatever your username is\.android\adb_usb.ini
If you have already run ADB at any time on your system the file and directory should already exist. If not you will need to create the directory and the file.
on a single line simply add this to a blank line in the file and save and exit:
0x2207
This tells ADB to look for that vendor code. (if you allready have ADB on your computer 'adb devices' should now show your tablet.
** UPDATE ** This is still necessary even if using the drivers attached to this post!​

Step 3 Root your Tablet!
*** Warning ***
I almost bricked my tablet on this step due to an error with a faulty PlayStore I had tried to install just using the APK. It kept the tablet from rebooting properly during the root process! I recommend erasing all user data before continuing YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Extract Root with Restore by Bin4ry v15 to the directory of your choosing.
From explorer on your pc double click the RunMe.bat and select option one.
This particular root uses the system restore function to gain root access. If everything goes right you should get a prompt on the table to restore an image.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Press restore ON THE TABLET without entering a password or changing anything else and after a minute or two (maybe more) it should reboot.. Do some more stuff then reboot one more time and you should now have a rooted tablet.
Step 4 Copy root explorer and gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip to the internal storage of the tablet.
Make sure the tablet is plugged into your computer and turn On USB Storage.
Copy rootexplorer.apk and gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip to the Downloads folder via windows explorer and the removeable drive from the tablet.
Step 5 Install root explorer
ON THE TABLET: to applications => explorer => Internal memory => Download => rootexplorer.apk
This should bring up the apk installer and ask for permission to install rootexplorer. Follow the prompts until rootexplorer is installed.
Open root explorer. The first time you open it if everything is right you should get a prompt from SU to allow root access, hit grant. After that you might get a message that you need to close and reopen root explorer again, this is completely normal.
Step 6 Remount File Systems r/w
Once root explorer is open and has root access you should be in the root directory of the device.At the top you should see a message that says "Mounted as r/o" and a button to the right of it that says "mount as r/w".
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click the button to mount / as rw.
The message at the top should change to "mounted as r/w" and the button should change to "mount as r/o"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Scroll to the system folder and open it.
At the top you should see a message that says "Mounted as r/o" and a button to the right of it that says "mount as r/w".
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click the button to mount /system as rw.
The message at the top should change to "mounted as r/w" and the button should change to "mount as r/o"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now click on the ../ Parent Folder icon on the top to go back to the root directory,
Step 7 Extract GAPPS
Scroll to and tap sdcard
Scroll to and tap Download
You should see the google apps file we copied earlier.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
tap and hold on gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip until the menu comes up and select "extract all" this will extract the zip file to /sdcard/extracted/gapps-ics-20120429-signed/
Step 8 Copy Google APPS to /system
Scroll to and TAP .. Parent folder at the top to go back a directory to /sdcard/
Scroll to and TAP extracted
Scroll to and TAP gapps-ics-20120429-signed
You should see 5 items, install-optional.sh, META-INF, optional, system and the ../ Parent Folder link.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
*** WARNING *** Do not click on the install-optional.sh bad things might happen!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
TAP and hold on the system folder until the menu comes up and select copy.
This will place a paste button on the bottom of the screen be careful not to hit it yet or you will have problems.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
TAP ../ Parent Folder until the directory at the top says / (you should have to go back 2 or 3 folders)
You should now see a bunch of folders in the root directory as well as the tablets system folder. There should NOT be a ".. Parent folder" visible.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now hit the paste button on the bottom left. You should get a warning massage saying "system already exist. Do you want to overwrite it?" hit yes
The file copy takes 1 to 2 minutes when it is done all that is left is to remount the / and /system folders r/o and reboot the tablet
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 9 Remount file systems r/o
At the top you should see a message that says "Mounted as r/w" and a button to the right of it that says "mount as r/o".
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click the button to mount / as ro.
The message at the top should change to "mounted as r/o" and the button should change to "mount as r/w"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Scroll to and TAP system
At the top you should see a message that says "Mounted as r/w" and a button to the right of it that says "mount as r/o".
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click the button to mount /system as ro.
click the back icon on the bottom left until you have exited root explorer.
Press the power button on the top of the tablet and turn it off and back on.
If everything went right you should now have a fully functioning rooted tablet with Google Playstore...

WASN'T THAT FUN!!?!?!
Ive tried this several times. It hasn't worked yet. Maybe I am doing it wrong, not sure. Ill keep trying but I am losing hope.
I am trying with a Proscan PLT7035-PL
worked ... Many thanks to amjtech ...
Here's how to do it:
Install Android SDK, then install Android SDK Tools, Android SDK Platform-Tools, Google USB Driver (download from google)
Install PdaNet for Android on PC.
Attach Proscan pad, check Settings->Developer options->USB debugging to on
XP install adb driver - if unsuccessful, need modify registry
regedit under HKLM/SYSTEM Permissions -> Advance, check replace permission entries on all child
(http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/252428-45-installation-failed-access-denied)
Install USBDeview, run to see usb device attached, get device ID of PROSCAN pad (0x2207)
Add device ID to file adb_usb.ini in c:\docume~1\<user>\.android, also add google's id:
0x2207
0x18d1
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1479311)
(http://androidforums.com/kindle-fir...k-how-get-adb-running-root-superoneclick.html)
Now device will show running
Install ICS Root Unlocker 1.0, run ... got rooted.
Download Root Explorer (2.21.1).apk, Google Play Store (3.8.16).apk, and gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip from 4shared

Unfortunately as stated above there is no factory rom available for these tablets yet... I am looking into using rkflash or rkflashtool to download my rom prerooted so I have a backup and also can post a rooted rom for everyone. Most likely later this week I should have some time to figure out the rkflashtool and get it dumped.
I will post it here once it is done.
I'm going to say this now. I have a very busy schedule so I cannot guarantee when I will get this accomplished.
Also if this works for you please hit the thanks button.

Confused as heck !!
OK, I am confused as heck here. I have the SDK installed. I have the USB Drivers installed. The PC sees the phone just fine, I can browse the internal storage and the external sd card with no problem. Windows XP Device Manager shows Android Phone, and under that the Android Composite ADB Interface.
PDANet works with the phone, no problem. However, adb devices never shows the device, and the Root program cannot find it either. At this point, I'm stumped. Any ideas what I need to do? I have put the android_usb.ini file in c:\Documents and Settings\myusername\Android with the necessary hex codes for the device and for Google. I'm going nuts here!
I know ADB is installed properly, because I can plug my phone into the PC and run adb devices, and it's detected just fine. It's just this tablet it can't find.
FIX: Not as obvious as it might have been, but here is the solution to my problem. I used the Search function to find the adb_usb.inf file - umm... it's in .android, not android. Once I added those ids, everything was fine.
No Market?
Achieved root, copied over the system folder from the zip, but no market. Did I miss something?
What about Recovery?
Just wondering if there is a recovery option as yet? That would be so helpful!

Yeah, this happened to me too. And for some reason, when you go to the \system folder and look in apps there is another apps folder in there. I think there is something really odd going on with root manager possibly. I don't know what the deal is, but none of the Google Apps are running.
I've tried several older 4.0.x versions of GAPPS, and I will be danged if I can get any of them to work. I'm rooted OK, but that's all that worked thus far.
Good instructions! But failure... and then success
The instructions were great above! The pointer to the version of google play was bad, but I found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1934441 and after using Root explorer to do the appropriate permissions at / and /system, and on the renamed file, it works!
---------- Post added at 06:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:06 AM ----------
Now that I got Google Play to work...
I am having an odd problem however - the installation of apps stalls at 0% for about 30 seconds, and then continues. And as the percentage is updated, I see app screens cycling. And little google play shopping bags start to stack up in my "task tray" area of the tablet.
Does anybody else have that problem? It's very annoying! It seems like the downloaded apps not only install but open, eating up precious memory.
Speaking of which, how is the flash memory used? (4 GB), and not having apps take up the 500 MB that's available?

It is 4GB shared. I haven't tried looking at the partition table.
There is only 2GB usable, it's on the TF card, I moved the apps there.
Not sure how to access the SD card to put apps there.

My GAPPS are working fine. I thought about killing that /system/system folder and manually placing the files via adb.
Try checking the permissions too, I think they need to be 644 or better.
I've put the Tablet away for now, I will tinker again later probably.

How do you move your apps there? I'm aware of the app called something like app2SD, but the TF card isn't an SD card.

You have to extract the zip file, remount the file systems as rw and copy the /system folder from the zip into the / of the device so that all the files goto their proper places... if you have /system/system it was not copied correctly...
as far as those not getting ADB to reconize the tablet.. a) make sure you have usb debugging turned on and b) you put the hardware id in the adb_usb.ini file.. See the ** important note ** in Step 2!
Unzipping Files
I have read and followed your directions to download the files, but, my unit keeps saying it can not open any zip files.
Do you have any idea why it may say this or how to get around this problem so I can continue as instructed?
unzip on your computer and transfer over, or use root explorer

You can unzip them on your computer and then transfer them over, or use root explorer on your tablet. You'll have to hold your finger on the .zip file for a few seconds and then the unzip option pops up.
Well, everyone be careful! When my Google Play would not install properly, I tried to clean the tablet up, ie, put it back to its original condition. Somehow, I managed to cause something to crash, and from then on, the tablet won't boot past the Android startup screen, although I can adb into it and it is still rooted, etc. What I've got now is a project tablet - HOW TO UNBRICK THE BRICK.

I hope you do so or some body find a way to unbrick this thing as for me i still have 26 days to return mine.i got to the part where I was about to paste the system I hit yes then everything locked up. I noticed before I hit yes it said do you want to merge and copy the files over not do you want to overwrite it but I still hit yes bad idea. can anybody tell me why I said merge and copy. well this is the second one I have bricks follow the steps perfect got all the way to the end and this is what happens so I took the first 1 back guess I'm going to take a second back also and try again until i figure out what I'm doing wrong.has anybody maked a rkimage or a .zip. update that will work to re cover this thing. I would be willing to try it out for you because I can.

try doing an ADB shell
then the following commands
su
wipe data
this will reset the user partition. I had something similar happen on mine.. BTW 'wipe all' will definitly brick your tablet so be carefull
If you still cannot get it I was almost in a car accident yesterday and my tablet went flying and broke the screen... If you confident with a soldering iron I now have a plt-7035 mainboard prerooted and playstore installed for sale for $25 including shipping.. it would involve soldering 6 wire and the wifi antenna if your up to it pm me,, I know its good as I was able to ADB into it and run su and wipe data to reset it..

[Q] Root Klu 7033

So I went bargain hunting and found this Klu 7033 ICS tablet. It's a decent tablet, I got it for my son. Contrary to some of the icons on the packaging, most of the g-apps don't come on the device and that includes Play Store. And since there is no Play Store, I have no way to put these g-apps on it. I was reading that it is possible to install the g-apps as the .zip from the bootloader. I have tried all the common button combinations to get into the bootloader but nothing ever happens; it simply boots into ICS. I have tried putting ROM Manager on it and reboot that way, but every time I try to install one of the downloaded .apk files it always says the package is corrupt.
So my end goal here is to install the g-apps on this tablet. If I don't have to root it I don't need to, but at this point in time that seems like the only option. I have tried to install the .apk for various versions of the Play Store and it always crashes as soon as its UI comes up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I have tried all the common button combinations to get into the bootloader but nothing ever happens; it simply boots into ICS. I have tried putting ROM Manager on it and reboot that way, but every time I try to install one of the downloaded .apk files it always says the package is corrupt.
So my end goal here is to install the g-apps on this tablet. If I don't have to root it I don't need to, but at this point in time that seems like the only option. I have tried to install the .apk for various versions of the Play Store and it always crashes as soon as its UI comes up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Okay, got ROM Manager installed manually. Unfortunately I don't have a clockworkmod recovery that will work with it. I can't Flash Clockworkmod Recovery and can't Reboot into Recovery. When I backup, it says it does but I don't see any backups. ADB Devices lists nothing attached.
Resolution
I found all my answers here:
[cannot post link]
Okay, can't post a link. The resolution is over on androidForums.com. Search for "curtis klu lt7033" in the "General Tablet Talk" area. I got my Klu rooted and g-apps installed based on this thread.

I am using Windows 7 64 bit and the media drivers installed simply by plugging in the tablet to my computer. The drivers needed when USB debugging is installed are at the link I mentioned earlier in this thread. I can't post links yet or else I would send you directly there.
Can't find the thread on androidforums, can anyone post the link to that thread? Or post the root/gapps info here.

Here is the link. If you are trying to root from the beginning then start at post #104 on the 3rd page (although you are more than welcome to start at page one to get a feel for the process...and yes, it IS a process). Also, remember that when they say that you need to turn USB Mass Storage off, that it needs to be in the "Media Storage" setting. That caused me the biggest headache! HTH!

thanks i will try this out. My brother in law bought one over today but it is the LT7052 4.0.3 hopefully this works.
Use the step by step guide its more up to date.
Copy and paste the following into your search bar...
A Step by Step Guide to getting Amazon Appstore, & Google Play on a Curtis Klu LT7033 Android forums
(the guide will come up as the 1st or 2nd result using google, yahoo, or bing)
While it is true that post 104 listed above is where the original guide was born,
The step by step represents all the lessons learned to date.
The LT7052 requires a different ADB (android debug bridge) driver for your PC than the LT7033
There is a different guide at Android forums for the LT7052 entitled...
Getting Amazon Appstore & Google Play on Klu LT7052 Step by Step
See ya there;
SuperNoober
Are the Klu 7033 and the klu 7035 the same in any way?
