Coby Kyros MID8127

Hi guys,
I just bought a new Coby Kyros MID8127 tablet (A8, Android 2.3) for my friend.
Now, I want to flash a custom ROM with JB on it, but I just did not find any ROM, CWM or tutorial for that here at XDA (or elsewhere).
Is it possible, that there is no custom ROM for that tablet to have?
Thank you in advance.
Greetings,
sYCO

I have the same tablet and I bought a custom ROM from the people at KTZ, however, I could not install this ROM successfully, in order to install it I had to take the tablet to factory reset state and then delete a bunch of system applications to make room for the new ROM because the ROM does not allow you to install it from a formatted system partition (it's more like an upgrade). But when I finally installed the ROM it wuold not boot a second time; what that means is that, after installation the ROM boots normally but if I reboot it gets caught in a loop where I just see a blue disk spinning and it doesn't do anything else and the only way to get it out of that loop is to connect the USB cable and boot to recovery via adb and restore the backup that i did before flashing the new ROM. I tried to get help from the guy who makes these ROMs but he wasn't very helpful. I followed all his instructions and always got the same result.
I managed to install manually most of the components of this ROM through a long process of trial and error and left out the components that make the tablet misbehave and now I have a hybrid on my tablet which works pretty well with the exception of the wifi. The wifi works but at times is painfully slow.
I tried other ROMs from Android Tablet forums (check here). There is an ICS Rom there (or more than one, I don't remember) and also a JB ROM for the 8127 but I could not make them work on my tablet. The ICS ROM installed fine and runs very fast but it keeps freezing so I uninstalled. The Jelly Bean did not install properly and it was very hard to get the tablet to a working state after it bricked.
That was a while ago and I haven't checked lately if there is something else out there.

Hey Guys,
Just found this link. Maybe you can try it out and tell me if it works for you.

Sorry, I gave that tablet back and cannot test it anymore. I rather recommend to buy an Ainol Novo 7 Crystal. It is cheaper, better and ****ing fast with a nice custom ROM support like CM 10, CM 10.1, Paranoid 3.0, Crystal-Fuse, ...
Btw, KTZ sucks totally.

[Q] Pushing 4.1.1 ROM on 4.1.1

Hi,
I have Samsung Tab 2 7" P3100
Originally had 4.0.4 which worked great.
But got OTA update n upgraded to 4.1.1
& Now it started giving me trouble, Wifi Connection is very unstable.
Connected to Wifi Network keeps popping up every 5 mins.
I cant even install things properly without worrying of it will fail or success.
so i rooted the device and reset the whole thing (Rooted to make a Titatnium Backup n all)
Problem still persists, Still the Wifi Trouble.
Without a Proper Wifi its not even worth having a Tablet.
So my Question is: Can i Push a 4.1.1 ROM from Sammobile on my current 4.1.1 ??
or should i just downgrade it to 4.0.4 & than do a upgrade via Kies rather than OTA update.
( I am thinking something in OTA messed up, so a proper ROM from sammobile might help)

Yes, you can trying to download them from sammobile.com and start to installing from odin. Make sure you have backup for your ICS 4.0.4 before replace with JB 4.1.1
Good luck..

[Q] MZ601 upgrade to Jellybean help needed

Newbie with Motorola Xoom 3G MZ601 (Telstra).
I want to install Team EOS 3 stable ROM as I believe the official status is the MZ601 in Australia is NOT going to Jellybean.
Is there any step by step instructions for the whole procedure as I have not done it before.
I do have a USB cable and have installed the Motorola USB drivers on my Windows 8 Pro laptop.
Any advice would be much appreciated. I am aware of the two ZIP files that will be needed. One for the ROM and the other for Google apps.
None of my data is important on the Xoom so a factory reset is not a problem for me.

Got 4.1.2 working ok.
Tried 4.2.2 which seemed to work except for any Google Apps which all crashed. Other apps ran ok.
Back to 4.1.2 for moment
Is 4.2.2 supported on MZ601 3G?

[Q] back to stock acer iconia a1-810

I would like to get my acre iconia a1-810 android 4.2.2 tablet back to the way it was when I got it. I tried root, but it doesn't quite work completely and I hear acer is gonna be releasing an android 4.4 kitkat update for this tablet and a couple other tablets and you usually can't update if you're rooted. Does anyone have the stock firmware for this tablet? I would like it as a update.zip so I can flash it to my tablet using the recovery.
the image version is Acer_AV052_A1-810_RV26RC06_PA_CUS1 and its build number is Acer_AV052_A1-810_1.116.00_PA_CUS1

2.2 LTE update does not work ... weird

Hello dudes,
I bought a second hand nvidia shield (LTE version europe) yesterday, I've got a popup telling me the update 2.2 - LTE, so I tried to update it with no success, it downloads the package of 123 mb, reboots and I've got this screen :
I choose Yes, the tablet reboots and still the update to do, what does it mean ? has my tablet been rooted maybe before, that should explain why it does no work ?
Btw, I'm wondering, when my tablet reboots in "boot mode", it's upside down ...
Is there a way to get a tablet as out of the box ? I do not care about CWM, root or else ...
Thanks for your help

That is not the stock recovery so YES your tablet has been rooted before. I would search the forum for how to update it/flash stock recovery
