[Q] mid7016 - General Questions and Answers

is anyone working on a rom for 7016, been playing with it for a couple days trying to get it rooted and nand is locked and haven't found anything on how to unlock them, so i can use some of the root programs and install market on it, if anyone has an idea on a root that will work let me know and i will test it

The instructions for getting the Android Market on the 7015 works for this model as well - there is a youtube video that steps through it (search "How install android market on coby Kyros 7022" since I can't post outside links.
I'm having a couple of issues and am looking for a solution - will post in a new thread if I need to. 1) I was able to find the apk for Adobe Flash 10.3 but it doesn't seem to work in the native browser (can browse to you tube but then the videos pop open in another app but on other pages like blogs, etc the video graphic never appears). 2) I can't seem to get this thing to mount an SD card. I bought it primarily to let my son watch movies on it but the native 4GB isn't gonna get me very far. I've tried a 2GB that I had laying around and then went and picked up another SanDisk 8GB. Both are formatted FAT32 and can be read by Windows but as soon as I pop it in , I get the "SD card safe to remove" message.

Just wanted to point out that I stumbled on accessing the add-in flash card.
I reformatted the flash card using Windows, inserted in the device, and then had to power cycle the 7016. The way that they partition the internal memory creates an "SD Card" folder. When you insert an SD card you will get a TFlash folder as a sub directory of that. (not sure yet how you would access a USB flash drive if connected)

After days trying to find a way to root the Coby Kyros 7016, I've finally found a way to install the market!
Neither z4root nor gingerbreak worked with it. I don't think there's a way to root it, at least not now.
But you can install the market (which I guess is the main objective, at least mine was) in a very simple way.
Download the file using the following w w w . 4shared . com / file / 7tR6y6AB / Market . html.
Put them into your tablet.
Open APK Installer and install all of them in this order: OneTimeInitializer.apk, SetupWizard.apk, GoogleServicesFramework.apk and Vending.apk.
Turn your tablet off and turn it on again.
A window saying "Complete action using" will appear, mark "Use by default" and choose the "Launcher".
I hope it helps!
PS: I've heard it works also on the MID7020.

But until now rooting, nothing yet ! any sugestion ?

the final & best answer
after hard work and a lot of trials here is the solution ............... it is superoneclick 2.2 from shortfuse.org ..... and then make shell root then root and it will be rooted

Confirmed working! Just did it three different tabs!

Root confirmed on Coby Kyros MID7016
confirmed root, with SuperOneClick 2.3.3 on Windows 7.
allowed drivers to automatically install (all but the android gingerbread installed)
in superoneclick, check for drivers, and allow to force install driver for android gingerbread (check to see if recognized by adb via 'adb devices')
-at this point, i disconnected the kyros from my laptop, and then reconnected, and then checked in adb again.
then shell root.
then root.
done.
confirmed rooted, working, with superuser app.

[Q]

Hi all. I've been trying to install app2sd on my Xperia X10 mini pro. I've successfully rooted my device, using z4root 1.3. After I followed steps you provided on one of your threads. I've partitioned my SD card (16GB) and copied all necessary files. However instaed of running the proccess from my PC, I've downloaded terminal portal onto my phone and made it run from there. In the description it is said that after all steps, (which by the way were exactly the same had they been run from PC) the phone should restart itself, which unfortunatelly it did not. Worse of all all my apps and even Market icon dissapeared. I managed to find that the files were there, only system could not detect them. Pissed off about the whole situation I've decided to reboot my device using software installer by SE. Since then I can't even root my phone. I've tried all possible solutions including z4root, andro root, super one click, none of them succeeded. Please can anyone tell me what is going on. I would love to have app2sd as this really good phone is given with such a annoying flaw, as 200MB of memory. Thanks

[Q] How can I get the Android Marketplace on my Alldro device ?

Hi guys,
I bought a tablet from the guys over at Allview. The price was decent and the tablet is nice, but the douchy problem is that they did not include the android marketplace. I need it.
The device runs a eclair (android 2.1) update 1. Is there any way to install the marketplace without rooting the device ? and If not, can the device be rooted ? It has no phone capabilities (no sim, no gps, no camera) so I have 0 ideea what tool to use, especially because i really have no ideea what happends when rooting.
The little i got informationwise is that i'd probably need to root it > connect it to pc, use the andorid debugging console to "push" the app into the system folder. Tried to install whatever vendor.apks I could find but since the "host" os was uncertain, it's probably why they could not be installed. Alas, i may be wrong. Can you please help me out ?
if you need more infor google allview or Alldro
Thanks a lot !

Here ya go! just download it to your destop, transfer it to you device via usb, or download it to android device and run it from there!
thanks a huge lot !!! I will try this out. if it cannot install it means I will probably have to root the damn thing
thought as much. it won't install. I'm using ES explorer to install it (my device is not rooted yet, as I mentioned before) and no luck.
EDIT 1: Also tried copy=pasting it into the system/app folder. it says android marketplace blablabla copy failed. Is it possible that I am dealing with a NAND lock ?
could be that system is mounted read only.
Do you have root?
nope, not yet. I;m trying to root it as we speak... so far still going through the steps
EDIT: trying this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858952
so far i got to making the recovery image. for some idiotic reason however, I cannot do adb reboot recovery again ! it tells me error: protocol fault (no status)
my guess is that it doesn't like the recovery folder's name. else i don't get what's wrong ! I am going to rename the folder, and then attempt a second reboot-recovery. see if that works !
EDIT2: did not work. Could it be something else ?
ok i did it ! the problem was I had skipped rooting and forgot to add a few more params after doing the backup... whew ! that was a close call ! ffs !

Hi,
Is there such an app for the phone P2 from Allview?
Thank you in advance,
Poli
You will need to root your device to be able to push the vending apk into the system apps.
1. Root. its essential to do so.
2. Mount system partition r/w > google for adb commands on how to do that and adb in general
3. download the google apps provided above and either unzip and push vending apk to system/apps (not sure about the exact names, you'll have to see for yourself by using Root Explorer) . Restart phone > should work.

Viewsonix V350 Dual-Sim need Root

Hello,
I can`t root my V350.
Many Apps need Root.
I read that the Muchtel A2 and the Viewsonic V350 are the same...
I have tried:
z4root 1.3
superoneclick 2.2.1
Can everybody help me?
Thx
Timer
any news?interested
i've tried gingerbreak. without succes
success with SuperOneClick1.7,
Really?
SuperOneClick1.7 runs with the V350?
Where can I load them?
What Settings?
install driver that you find inside the phone after plug-in
set oneclick on rageagainstcage
is enough
Cool,
that is it!
The 1.7 SU client is not up to date.
I have delete tham an install SU over the Market.
If you update SU over the Market, you can`t update the SU Binary.
Now runs Titanium & Co.....
Thats beautiful.
yes it easier updating superuser by titanium dedicated key
I can confirm that SuperOneClick 1.7 works on the CSL MI350 which is exactly the same as the ViewSonic V350.
Thank you all for the information.
Next step is to remove all the "unwanted" applications.
How to unroot? If need to send phone to service?
btw. have your fm-radio awful? My v350 fm-radio is not powerful. Even outside there is problem to hear radio clearly.
Another problem is that after my battery is dead and phone shuts down it doesn't mount my sd-card anymore. Sd-card will not mount even I erased it, with computer it works perfectly. Another sd works fine in v350.
Need also lagfix for v350
EDIT: so there is unroot on version 1.7 but not success with root. SuperOneClick freezes after waiting device... What to do?!? Tried rageagainstcage.
install drivers that you find connecting v350, then look for that into device
Yeap, drivers are already installed and I can see into phone in my computer...?
into your phone click on setup, and now you install the proper drivers so superoneclick works.
Yes, I have already done that. Maybe I need to rerun that setup. Could there be a problem with Windows 7 64-bit?
my success with win 7 64x
After resetup (with adm-mode) it works Finally I got Titanium backup and I removed viewsonic 3D and other useless apps thanks
Resetup with adm-mod?
What is it?
I install it that I was loged in as administor
How much RAM and ROM you have? It think that there would be 512MB ram and 512MB rom.
Still I got error message that internal memory is full even I have not lots of apps installed.
Android system info (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.electricsheep.asi&feature=search_result) says that max 423MB ram is avaible and only max 157MB rom. So is there something wrong? Only about 20MB rom is avaible in normal use...
What are your max. and free in rom and ram?
I would like to find something other than SuperOneClick. SOC was written using a micro$oft-only language, and after struggling with C# hacks (mono + various libraries) it would not even launch on linux.
BTW, UniversalAndroot does not work for the v350, according to the v350 wiki page (which I'm blocked from posting the URL to).
Any other options?

just down load super one click it can force install the drivers and then it will root the device for you i just did it and it worked like a charm. all you have to do is plug it in and push root it will tell you you have no driver and ask if you want to force the driver installation say yes and the when it finishes unplug your device and plug it back in and it will root the device im sooooooo freakin happy i managed to get this thing rooted !!!!!

Noob Deleted System Apps - LG E720

I've been wanting to make my LG Optimus Chic E720 run a little smoother; today I tackled it. After rooting with z4root, I installed Root Explorer, and proceeded to move many system apps to my SD card, and deleted a few as well.. After moving ome.something app (im sorry I can't even see the name now), I started receiving force close messages for my messaging and phone apps. I managed to reboot, move everything back, and reboot again. Still doing it, so I did a factory reset.. Still doing it, so I did a hard reset.. and its still doing it.
Now, I no longer even have a file manager to install apks. Browser, messaging, phone, camera and android market don't work.. adb shell comes back with Device not found even though the phone is detected and pcsync app runs. I've been at this for like 5-6 hours reading and trying to fix it. I can't put a new rom on, because I can't install terminal emulator or use adb shell. I'm so frustrated, I feel sick to my stomach.. and I can't afford a new phone. Please help me?
This is what I was going to try installing to fix the problem, when I found out adb shell does not detect my phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1046135#13185924
I tried Android Injector to install Root Explorer again, no good. Also tried PdaNetA4013 to install usb drivers and it can't detect the phone either. I can still enable removable storage, and put files on, but then I can't access them on the phone.
Well, looks to be solved. After getting the phone to be properly detected (seemed to randomly work on the 100th time enabling/disabling mass storage), I followed the instructions in the link below. I used a different version of firmware than offered on the page. v10c_00.kdz downloaded from an xda developers application, original lg firmware its called. Can't believe its working again, I didn't get any responses but thanks to people like the ones who contribute here, my phone is saved.
I can't post a link but its lg-phones dot org --- how to flash lg optimus chic
Edit: Seems my phone has gone back to being network locked. Bummer.
