It looks like Coby Germany has released an ICS update for the 7022 | 1125 | 1126 | 8127 Kyros tablets from Coby.
Video:
Apparently I can't post links yet, being new here so here is the youtube code (just do a google search for the following, it should be the first video link) :
rBWeo_rEdcU
Coby Germany Link:
Again, I can't post links so just go to the main cobygermany site, it should be on the front page.
Let me preface this post by stating that I'm a bit of an android newb, so take everything I say here for what that's worth.
The update requires a serial number for the device, mine did not work so I tried the serial number trick (stepping up from the one shown in the above video. The original in the video is 101110010351 if any one is interested.) It wouldn't install until I completed a factory reset in Android 2.3. but ICS is now installed on my Mid1126.
Ok, now for the nitty gritty, HDMI is not working, and WIF is a bit flakey. Also, I can't get the Market to install using this ( youtube s2oXEhqCgcU ) method at least. Also, none of the standard Google apps seem to work, Gmail, Google +, etc. Using any of these I get an error message "Unfortunately, Google Services Framework has stopped"
Anyways, I just thought I'd share this with you all. Looks like Coby has a way to go yet before this version is actually ready for prime time (at least on my mid1126).
Is there a way to revert the device to the stock GB?
i have the same Q.
but there is one more problem, a bigger one. after installing ICS onto Kyros MID1125 I lost the possibility for 3g, for whom I have the hardware for. so how could i fix that, any possibility's for a downgrade via flashing with ODIN?
EDIT: to be more specific there is no option for APN or any kind of mobile network settings, just WiFi .

I install on MPMAN 827. It work very good.
I can give you files for this, I flash with CWM recovery.
I rooted and install Google Play.
Still waiting for an update...
Looks like Coby is dragging it's ass on the promised update... ready next week three weeks ago... Yet I still maintain hope. The current ICS is useable, but just barely.
The Coby German site says -
Tablets with Android 2.3 are now updated with the yet ready patches already included. If you updated your tablet earlier with an update file not containing the patches, you can downgrade to Android 2.3 and update to Android 4.0.3 again. Please contact our support for a description of the procedure. Alternatively the patches will be generally available in a few days.

This is a really confusing block of text... does this mean that 2.3 fixes somehow magically carry over into an ICS upgrade!!?? Would downgrading to 2.3 again and then upgrading to ICS fix everything..??!!
2.3
I reinstall 2.3 again
I don't like ICS, on my tablet is working good
Rooted and with Google Play is Ok.
I waiting the update from Coby Germany.....
Coby Updates
Ok, looks like somewhat good news... this is a Youtube comment response from the dude from Hotodi.tv (from the original 4.3 upgrade video on the Cobygermany.de site) Note: It's a German machine translation, he's not retarded.
----------------------------------------------
"Hello. Yes, even if it is "unfortunately" not currently looks from the outside, it moves very much at the moment. THe test images look very good out there will not be long that they can be published FINALLY.

So you flashed ICS update fom a zip via recovery, or did you follow the installation process from Coby Germany ?
And to go back to 2.3 have you just restored your nandroid backup or is it an other process ?
Thanks for your help.
EDIT @pixelpump : I can't find update page on coby's website anymore, where did you see this message ?

ICS Update (v1.1.0025) works fine
I have updated my sons MID7022 like it descripted on the german coby website.
The new Android 4.0.3 version (v1.1.0025) works really fine.
After updating the tablet I rooted it to install the gapps. Now my son is happy to use the play store, gmail etc.
Exclamation on Reboot
Does anyone know how to overcome the problem of the update stalling on reboot with the exclamation mark? I had read that it might be because of low disk space on the download but I did a factory reset and came up with the same problem...
How did you achieve this?
I googled a lot, but didn't find a good "how-to" or I was unable to download the necessary CWM. Do I really need to root to install gapps?
Thanks for your help!

Helpful for me was these thread at Android Tablets. Maybe you can use these description, the long way.
I'm using CWRM4, with version 5 it will not good work as you can read her.
Without root you can't install the gapps. Try these description.
Thank you very much, I'll try that.

And? Have you succes?
Unfortunately no.
CWM wouldn't work, although I have some experience with Android rooting (HTC Sensation). So I decided to return the tablet.
This was my second and last try on a cheapo tablet (first one was a Odys Vision, whos build qualitity was poor, would be a really long list ). I'm going to wait for the Google Nexus or perhaps the Windows 8 Tablets (as replacement for my Laptop).
But again thanks for your effort!

I just got back to my desk and had the notification that an update was available. I ran it and my GTablet is running noticibly faster.
Not sure what was all included, but it was a nice surprise...
I'm ripping it apart, now. 1800 on Quadrant, AB works (so they grabbed something from the new Tegra drivers), no Flash that I can see.

roebeet,
So this is apparently not the update (with Flash) that's suppose to be coming out mid-December (12/16?)?
Jim
well.....
well it would seem that the update really did fix some problems. Angery Birds now runs on the factory ROM (video driver improvement)
Fixed WPA Enterprise or EAP support?
the factory linked (G-market) seems to work now to.
(For TnT Lite users) I am underwhelmed -nothing I can see worth mentioning, yet. Not even a kernel update.
I'm going to release a TnT Lite 2.3.0 tomorrow most likely, but this is not the 3.0.0 I was hoping for. Maybe you can find a bug fix in there that I might have missed.
Hi,
On my new (just picked up) Gtab, settings=>About is showing:
Tap UI version: 1.0-2736
Kernel: 2.6.32.9-000000-10.8.2-dirty
Build: FRF91
Where is that on the revisions from Viewsonic (e.g., is it the original? Or an update?)?
The reason for the question is that I haven't configured WIFI yet, and am assuming that I'll get that notification when I do, and am trying to figure if I should do the new update or not?
Jim
Update failed.
After the update downloads and then reboots the gtablet, I get an andriod image with an exclamation mark. After power down the gtablet boots find and informs me that the update failed.
The only two customizations I have are:
Z4 Root
ClockworkMod
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do?

Even though this update means nothing to my gtab, it certainly does increase my respect for VS. At least they are somewhat following through with what they say.

It doesn't - you need standard recovery to use their update process. Or, just grab it from here: http://tapntap.http.internapcdn.net/tapntap/update-smb_a1002-3053-user.zip
and drop it somewhere and run cwm against it. It will work, but it will change cwm back to standard recovery.

Yes, except the user data which should be retained. This link is straight from TnT Inc. and it's what they've been pushing down to devices today.
Just ran update, and it removed GMail, Gtalk,Maps, and.... Market.
in ADW the icons are there, but they say not installed
Oh Superuser icon same thing.
Hi everyone, this is my first post and I recently bought my first Android device (yes, yes, I'm a 100% noob). BTW, I also did the search (google and xda) for this problem, without results.
This is the story:
- I few weeks ago I bought my new Samsung Galaxy Tab wifi (p1010), with Android 2.2 Froyo, and it is not rooted or flashed with some rom.
- Search on the market for an official version of Skype, but no, at this time there was no one.
- Then, I find one on getjar, works ok, but only audio.
- A few days ago I uninstalled the getjar version an install another one, version 2.0.0.45-signed, from villanrom, announced with video support, but at the moment of accepted a video-call the application always fails and closed.
- After that, I uninstalled it, and wait for a new and better one.
- Here is the problem: I have tried with another versions (villanrom 2.0.0.47sig, xda-Froyo-droidrx, the first one from getjar, and others, even the "official one" 2.0.0.47 from the market) but always I got the same error "Out of space: Skype could not be installed. Free up space and try again"
- I can instal other apps (apk and market) without any problem.
- My Summary is: Program 438MB/1.87GB, Personal data 10.00MB/69.77MB, Internal memory 4.38GB/12.74GB", with NO External SD card.
Please, I need some help to resolve this problem, before doing anything drastic, like an hard-reset
Best regards and thanks
Jerome
[note. sorry for my regular english... ]
Please. I need some expert help with this problem.

You can try to run Titanium Backup, to see whether there still is some kind of skype installation on your tablet. If Titanium Backup can find something, then try to uninstall/wipe data/force remove app (all in Titanium Backup).
Another thing u could try is to use Root Explorer, and browse to data/app/ and see if there is still some skype in there (com.skype.raider-1.apk?). If there is, delete it. Also go to data/data/ and see if there is still something from skype there (perhaps com.skype.raider?). If there is, delete it.
Finally you could try to clear your dalvik cache. Usually that's done in clockworkmod, but as I'm not sure if you have that on your tablet, check here.
If none of that helps, I would backup some important stuff and then do a factory reset. Or better yet, put a nice new rom on there (either official or unofficial, no idea what's out there for the galaxy tab). At least go to gingerbread (android 2.3.x), or honeycomb (android 3.x) if that's available for your tab.
good luck!
PS; as for skype, i would recommend to use droidrx's mod. He's making great progress and most likely very soon there will be some kind of "final" and bug-free version.
Many many thanks.
My tab it´s not rooted yet (I think if I do that then lose guaranty)... I will try to do a factory reset or firmware update first... Only if that fail, then I will apply the root solution... BTW, wich one it is the better method/app for root a g-tab (with the un-root option included)??
Best regards
Jerome
Just did a 5 minute research, and apparently for some people there is already an official gingerbread update available. I would rather do that then a factory reset at this point. Gingerbread is a much better version of android than you have at the moment.
Rooting your galaxy tab is dead easy apparently, read here.
If you're thinking about installing a custom rom, see the Galaxy tab android development section.
Yep, but the update it's not available for everyone... I got installed the lastest version of Kies (2.0.1.11053_99), and it's shows "Current fw version = Latest = PDA:KB4 / CSC:KB4 (CHO)".. May be because my country (Chile).
SuperOnceClick looks fine, but with this issue
Note:
I have tried unrooting the device and rooting it again and this is not working. so this is to let you know that you will have to reflash the firmware to root the device if you unroot it again using this software and try to root until some one finds a solution

Yea, that means that you can still get your tablet back to the factory state (including root), in case you wanna bring it back for warranty. Which is probably never going to happen anyway.
So my advice would be just to flash a gingerbread 2.3.4 rom, as i've noticed you don't even need to have root to do this. Who knows how long chile will wait with distributing a new android version?
no te preocupes!
EDIT: just be careful with one thing, i've noticed not all customs roms will work on your tablet since you have a wifi only tablet. keep that in mind when looking for a rom and make sure that the rom will be compatible.
Apparently I'm not the only one with this specific problem... It's look like some bad install/uninstall process with the "VillainRom" version on the GTab.
Google search:
villainrom Skype with Video Support for Various Devices... #55
(Sorry, but the system says that I'm too noob to publish external links.. )
Sadly, they have not released a solution yet
Best regards

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857334
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156569#15398287
OK, I´m not the first one with this specific problem, but some says even with root they can´t delete skype directory from system.
Jerome
Solution:
Run terminal and type:
"rm_-R_/data/data/ com.skype.raider" _ = space
i failed the oparation a few times until i got it..
After that i'v downloaded Skype again, but this time it installed successfully,
Im very disappointed with Skype team failing to fix the problem and having there paying customers to Root there devices !
Jerome,
I guess you are in the same boat i am.
I went to Chile in June and bought a P1010 at Falabella store. My FW is the same as yours and there's no ROM to upgrade (official or custom).
There's no development for it here. Also the video skype is for the GB not froyo.
The only tweaks i could do was the root (z4root) and the OCLF.
Sorry for this bad news... But at least i loved to visit your country. The Piscosawer, the "CONGRO" fish and the "Cafe con Piernas" 8))

Thanks to user Nefirim over at Android Tablets Coby has released a new firmware update to the Coby Kyros Mid8024. he notes that it fixes the white screen of death that some users have experience when flashing modified images for this device.

Edit : This post was about Coby Kyros 8024 , but recently Kernel Dev. NamKo over at slatedroid has pushed an alpha kernel that is for herotab c8 but happens to work slighty on Coby Kyros 1024.Using official source from urbetter..The kernel is not perfect but it allows us to use CM9 and ICS 4.04 on this tablet. There are many things not working but hoping to attract people with more knowledge to help out

mid8024 firmware
did anyone actually use this. my mid1024 was semi-bricked, so i decided to try this. the manual also specified 1024, so what the hell.
The process was pretty smooth, but upon boot the screen (logo) was all messed up, it made it to the desktop and all i could make out was the time.
tried several times, zipped, unzippped. it accepted the procedure, but for the worst.
pretty bad. device will be going back to where it came from anyhow.

Also the update only fix devices which were soft bricked and had white screen of death...They do not update the android os

Disclaimer. This is not my work. This is CM-9 ported by SMDKV210 with NAMKO's Kernel(4/22/2012)
Flash this at your own risk. I take NO Responsibility for Bricking Your Device.
This rom is a work in progress. There are numerous things not working, because the kernel is not directly made for Coby Tablets.
This thread is to post your findings and possibly to help get a Kernel thats made for our tablets.
To flash this rom. Prepare a clean fat 32 formatted sdcard.This will format your internal Sdcard and erase your tablet contents.
Press and hold Home center button and Power Button,simultaneously, release when you see mid upgrade in progress. Do not press any buttons or attempt to power off your tablet. Let it up grade your software and it will shutdown when its done.
TESTED ON 1024N board Not sure if this will work on any other device. This kernel did not boot on my 8024 but I haven't tried with the new OS.
On first boot (well every boot) Kernel panics right away(The black penguin) and sometimes the display is snowy or has a faded effect. Just wait and the bootanimation will start. After tablet boots up There you are CM-9 on Coby Kyros 1024.
I suggest you restart tablet after first boot. I am just an end user like most of you I will help in any way possible. I am not a developer I made this so that others would be able to see and help with the development.
Home button works. Soft buttons do not work and I haven't figured out how to kill the lights

Performance is fine
USB
Camera
Axis Rotation
Wifi Connection
HDMI ?
The kernel is made for a different device so things written on the kernel level are not communicated to the os.
You have to enter your wifi settigs manually to connect, turning off wifi shuts tablet down. Camera does not work but someone found sources so kernel dev maybe able to incorporate them soon.
I get over 10 hours of battery without use maybe 6 hours when I am using but there are no tweaks added other than reducing wifi scan in the build prop.
Vernox701 hello, is there any other site that I can follow the development step by step ROM compatible with Kyros 1024?

It installs, but when I'm on the desktop version of sites that have flash supported stuff, all I see is a little blue box with a question mark in it. I can't access the google market directly, so I downloaded the flash apk to my htc amaze from google play and tranferred it to my device like I do with all my apps but to no prevail. Also I have download flash from various sites and it still gives me the same problem... I know its only a coby tablet, but I'm running stock ics 4.0 so I know its capable of running flash. I've read there is flash support for ICS so I don't understand why I'm having problems. Any ideas... please... and some direct apk links to what may have worked for u would be great. Thanks
Have you enabled plugins in the browser settings?
Yes plugins enabled is set to "always on"....

It was worth asking. How about different browsers? It could just be the stock browser that's at fault.
I use the stock browser and have no problems with Flash, but it's on different a different device (SGS2). It doesn't work in Chrome however, so it may be worth trying a couple of different ones.
Ok I got it working.... I downloaded a more updated flash apk from 1mobile.com....
same problem
I Have a Coby MID8042 tablet that also has 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich I have tried and tried to install flash and keep getting the same problems. All I get is the little blue lego with the question mark in it.
I have downloaded the latest version from 1mobile even, still same problem. Mine browser is also set to always allow plug ins, what else can I do? What is a good alternative browser for me to try for someone who is not that computer savvy?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Who are all these tablet manufacturers shipping out tablets with ICS, but without Adobe Flash support or Android Market / Google Play pre-installed?
What were they thinking?

I started to do some work on that tabled, but stuck with kernel touchscreen configuration. See here.
Touch chip is Goodix GT911, screen size is 800x1280 px. I managed to get touch working but partialls. First aprox 1.2 inches of top of screen are not responsive to to touches. After that 1.5" touch works normally.
I'm pretty sure I'm sending wrong configuration data array to chip and thats why its not working as it should, but have no time at the moment to toy with it. If anyone experienced with Goodix chips, pm me with ideas...

Update: I started to toy with stock kernel and cm10.2 (my first CM ever, was working with AOSP based SoC manufacturers sources). Problem is that device uses separate partition for internal sdcard, so have to disable emulated storage.
Things done:
- recovery
- android is built against precompiled stock kernel
Status:
- after bootanim and starting apps screen android reboots and starts back with bootanim. This was one day tryout, will debug it later today. Thanx to TeamNostalgia's preparation for cm10.2 on Amlogic MX. I used their framework and device stuff, upgraded with latest amlogic version of sources. Because of SLA I have with Amlogic, I cannot put it online.
any news abouth root final this tablet?
thx for info

It is. I'm not CM guy really, but its possible. If anyone interested, TeamNostalgia's github does have decent tree for Amlogic MXS tablets. I did some CM10.2 work for that tablet, but ended up with bootloop and reboot eventually. Didn't had time do debug it.
Here 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=504411&view=findpost&p=29560411 is a customized firmware from Prestigio PMP3970B to work on Prestigio PMP5670C. But it does not run on PMP5670C, stands on the splash screen. Maybe someone will take to complete the firmware, it is better factory firmware for the tablet PMP5670C

I fixed U-Boot (wrote my own to support device tree kernel - 3.10.10) and fixed touch screen. I did not upload this fw, started to work yesterday on amlogic's 4.4 sources (they support both mx and m8 chipsets) (no, I cant share, I have SLA with them), I have boot, only left few things to test and then I'll upload 4.4.2.
Thank you for keep working! Waiting for rom)

Here's beta version of rom: http://www.stane1983.com/prestigio_pmp5670c/
Read install instructions, needs to be installed twice, uboot still not perfect. Waiting for feedback
Btw, it's 4.2.2 rom, KitKat doesn't work good (unstable) on MXS chip.
Installed today morning. Seems all good! Thank you very much

Rename uImage_recovery to recovery.img (when installing back stock firmware).

Now I successfully installed the 1.0.05 but there is a quite big issue: I can not able to install anything from Play, the Download Manager is acutally (lots of system apps too) 0.0kb

I'm really sorry for inconveniences. With 1.0.05 files on sdcard, delete factory_update_param.aml file and boot into recovery (as if you want to install firmware). From menu using vol +/- and power for select choose factory reset (data partition is not formatted using old partition layout, thats why you have 0kb). After that you also can reflash firmware if you want (just select zip from sdcard).

My daughter get this tablet from her grandfather on 03.05.2014 ( I guess she is lucky about that date ), and it was so slow and ugly and everything.
I installed your bety rom and everything is perfect. BUt after first reboot i get setup wizard again, but the first time after Install I only get FC ( just like I should ) but it didnt throw me back to setup wizard again.
Can I expect wizard setup every time I reboot or?
And Yes, thank you a lot for this awesome and fast work. The tablet is now so much more usable.
HVALA TI STANE MNOGO => THANK YOU STANE A LOT
@stane1983 I have the same problem as @babicsbalu. My pmp5670c is also stuck at black screen after rebooting and installing new stock firmware. I did both, renaming from uImage_recovery to recovery.img and deleting factory_update_param.aml and every time with the same result.
Please help me!
Or you can PM me (I'm from Croatia)
Hvala ti!
Well I also have prestigio tablet pmp5670C_BK_DUO and within a week it got bricked somehow. I guess that broken charging pin on cable had something to do with it - probably did a short circuit or something and boot loader got corrupt. Tabled was responding to connection of new charging cable, but only backlight turned on. There was no logo or anything.
I browsed several pages and nothing worked. I tried with official upgrade from SD card but it didn't work. It started to upgrade, android-upgrade logo came up, but after reboot nothing happened. Damaged bootloader was unable to start the tablet.
After a day or so I finally found a way how to unbrick it! Yeah.... So in attached file there is the detailed procedure, which I found on some Russian page.
Good luck!
Recovery.rar no longer available

I had a similar problem here and this method seems promising, but the recovery file indicated on the PDF is no longer available. Would you still have it lying around somewhere?
Thank you!!
