I recently purchased a mid tablet off of amazon that shipped to me from china. It came with the goolge play store but it looks like it has been limited. when I open the play store it does not appear with any of the books movies or music that it usually has on other devices. I'm running 4.0.3 but some apps like chrome show up as "not compatible with this device", and there are many more like that. Some wont even show up in the search. I thought it might be a different version of the play store so I tried installing a different apk that I found, and that did nothing. I also tried going to the browser to use the store but the device is blacked out. Then I figured I would try to root the tablet, however I can't seem to find any drivers for it. I have read that changing the device name in build.prop folder can fix this but with being able to get root access I can't even try this.
Can someone help me find the drivers for this? It is a parkly rk2906.
Or maybe a different way to to get root.
Am I on the right track trying to change the device name or is there some thing else I should try?
I tried posting a link to amazon here but I'm new to the forum so they won't let me. If u would like it let me know and ill pm it to u.
I know a bit about android but I'm still pretty much a noob thanks in advance for ur help.
same issue

I am having the EXACT same issue. Chinese tablet (Ainol Novo 7 Advanced - II) with ICS 4.0.3 but Google Play wont let me download ICS apps because it thinks my device is incompatible.
There's a modded play store on the forum somewhere that has country restrictions removed.

I think I used the pda net driver to enable my tablet to connect to my pc. And it works. Try it.

P.s. where is the modded market app?

OK I figured it out mostly. I used this to get root at the end of page 1 there is a .PDF with a step by step.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673161
Then I tried this to get the market but I couldn't get it to work maybe someone else can figure it out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690085
So after that didn't work I use LCD density modder to get the market. Now the market works but I still don't have the music, movies, or books. Now I can seem to undo it to try a different mod.

I have seen several posts that have the Miui music player APK for Android that require you to download the apk and then be rooted to install it. What many of us are wondering if is it is possible to get a different apk where you can just install it normally and dont require root access. Is that possible because i love the music application so much?
yeah, look around on the forums a bit. I got it from here and installed.
If it's a signed apk then I don't see why you'd have to be rooted to install it. .zip is the extension for roots (I could be mistaken about all of this, but I've never had trouble with and apk's).
the player is cool for 1 minute. Too many shortcomings. Maybe you'll still enjoy it. Good luck.

My question is a simple one, having searched on usenet, torrentsites and here, I have not been able to conjure up any CFW's for this device. The android app market is not available on this device which just is an odd thing to do.
Any help on this one friends?

Well, I've managed to get a trade in. Now I've got a Creative Zen Touch2.

Ok I am new to this all. so I am going to go ahead and say that do not get mad if I do not understand something.
anyhow, I am wanting to watch hulu.com on my asus tf101. the builder number is 8.6.5.13.the android version is 3.2.1
I have heard people say to root it, but I am unsure how to do it. I tried a couple of sites, but they seemed old and I would find myself half way through with a link not working.
so all I have is what came on it. I just purchased it today. if you know what will make it work best to watch hulu.com thank you so much. I'll be watching this thread so please ask away if you need any more information.
also I do not paying for anything as long as it works. hence I purchased hulu plus. BUT it did not carry all the shows like it does online.
thank you,
Jonathan Mashburn

on your TF .
Do the allow unknown apps permission first.
Just click on apk and it will load
Once you are rooted Do the following
go to market get superuser load
go to market get OTA rootkeeper then load
If you are strugglng with this I recommend you do not go any further (ie roms kernels)
I'am almost sure razorclaw will not work because it is based on 8.6.5.19.
It checks the version and also needs (fixed) asus-backup which was delivered with 8.6.5.19.
You can try it, but it will fail.
easy to upgrade from 13 to 19. harder to get back. But based on difficulty with simple Nachoroot poster asking questions should stick with stock.
only luck I've had so far is with www.playon.tv . I'm on their 2 week free trial right now but considering the upgrade.
E-Fun's latest Android tablet is now on the shelf at BigLots. It's a $99 budget device running 4.0 ICS.
I tried to install Android Market (the easy way) and the app crashes. I take that means this tablet will require a little more work. Has anyone hacked it yet?
I am also interested in knowing how to get Gapps to work on this as well...just purchased mine on the 27th at Big Lots too for the $89.99 special, been trying all apk's with no luck..keeps on crashing when clicking it.
When I sent a note to E Fun asking if there were any plans to update and add Google support, the response was:
This is not an issue we can change. Like the majority of tablets on the market Google will not grant a licenses to use their app market. The tablets are designed to work with third party Android apps sites where you can still download Android apps, the only difference is it's from a different website.
Of course I sent them a list of bunches of budget tablets that come with access...
I don't have the technical savvy to create the necessary mods -- but if anybody out there is interested, and there's anything I can do to assist, please let me know! With access to the google apps, this would be one sweet little tablet for the price!
I found this but it is for the next7 ...shouldn't be much different, or so I'd think...I will give it a try I suppose.

I'm pretty sure that was written for Gingerbread, not ICS. The last couple of posts kind of imply that it didn't work on the Next7S.
Your right...besides not finding the USB drives anywhere (as I cannot get the sdk's to work on it) I tried to uploading the files then install and cannot get some of the apks to install, like the GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk, GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk & GoogleServicesFramework.apk all others installed fine. With no luck on keeping the market from crashing boo! I am sure someone will be able to come up with something in due time, I hope.
Look at freaktab.com - Finless Bob has cooked a rooted rom with Google app,Super user and /system mounted r/w.
The download includes all neccessary instructions, files and utility - including driver - for Next7s. There is one clarification that I think will help... To get into the download / flash mode you need to hold down on volume rocker so that BOTH (volume up | down)switches are activated.
Thanks SO MUCH Moonpie! This has worked! With no problems and coming from me I always flub up something but the directions were very nicely typed out.
Try this blissb2599, only problem I am having is quiet a bit of apps are not compatible like my banking ... facebook, but I have an apk for facebook, old version but works lol...
Great to here reddtessa! Sorry to hear about apps not working. Maybe there will be some tweaks in future.

It's days like this that I feel somewhat challenged... I'm not seeing the Next7S ROM. Would one of you kind people point me in the right direction? I'm sure it's staring me in the face, but I'm just not seeing it...
EDIT: Yup, it was right in front of my face. Got it, installed it. Loving it!
Glad you found it..took me a min as well to find.

In case anybody else is having a hard time it's here: http://www.freaktab.com/showthread....Cream-Sandwich-Finless-ROM-1-2-Root-and-Gplay
Thanks for the link. I just picked up a 7s for my kid yesterday after the Next5 we got him originally quit working. I DLed the Play store APK and was like OMG-WTH every time it kicked us out. The Next5 came rooted (out of a sealed box) and had no issues with Google Play from a standard APK. If you guys have this working on the Next7s (YF031 serial) then I'll flash it.
One thing I find hysterical is on the box it states it is a Capacitive Screen, but my kid used his generic plastic stylus (intended for an older Nintendo DS) and it worked! I even tried a pencil eraser and it worked too. Does that make this a hybrid Capacitive/Resistive screen then?
****Update, I got clarification in the other thread on the two different versions of the rom. All is well, the tablet is now rooted, and is running Google Play on the Finless Rom. Very happy with how quick it was to do as well. Thanks again for the link!
Please help!

I did a search really didnt come up with anything that I'm looking for, and I seen that there is no section in the forums for it. Sorry if this is the wrong spot. Anyways I already put google play on it, everything works great, games, apps, themes, and etc. The only thing I'm having trouble with is Netflix, i downloaded it, installed it, and it comes up fine. When i go to choose a movie or show to watch, its like the screen is unresponsive. I've done google search after google search and I haven't been able to find anything. If anybody has any info, links or anything that could help me i would appreciate it so much.
