I have searched online for the ability to root this tablet (it's a Polish manufacturer), so all I found was info in Polish and for their latest model (9xxx) only.
The OS is Android 4.1. I would like root access for some apps and to delete others.
The tab is 10.1inch and was bought for my 19mth old child, who watches disney movies, cartoons etc on it, we load onto the tab or watch via youtube.
The need for root is we downloaded some childs games recently onto the tab and the majority are loaded with ads! Whilst not watching the child, he tends to click on the ads, which opens the browser, in all, its a nuisnace more than anything. I use adaway on my droid and want this on the tab.
I am unsure of a root guide for this tab (in English), yet I am willing to negotiate payment with a developer to show me.
Please let me know.

The device:
GT-P6210 v3.2
Kernal: 2.6.36-P6210UEKL1-CL583281 [email protected] #3
Build: HTJ85B.UEKL1 P6210UEKLI
The sitch:
I'm a US citizen with a US device (I bought through Amazon.com and had shipped to me through a third party). However, I am currently living in Japan on a military installation. When searching for an app on the Android Market, 95% of the time the return is: No results found--even if what I'm searching for is free. I'm assuming the 5% app result (even though it's never what I'm looking for) is because of a similar app posted on the Japanese market (I could be wrong). Using a median to get through to the market (GetJar, etc.), I am able to download free apps, but I cannot buy anything that costs money. I finally emailed the Android App Customer Service and was told it was because of my IP address.
The kicker:
First and foremost, how is it my IP when I have reset my device to factory default and used a US VPN before I logged into the market and was still unable to access apps? But even putting aside that point, here is some food for thought:
I have owned both a Nook Color and Kindle Fire and, after rooting them, was able to access the Android Market just fine. All within the IP address I am currently using.
I have friends here who own Android phones (bought here on the military base through a Japanese phone company) and an Android US tablet. On all three devices they are able to access the market without any problems. Additional info: Friend's devices are SIRIUS α IS06 [au.kddi.com/english/seihin/ichiran/smartphone/is06/index.html] x2, and a Toshiba Thrive 10”; none of friend's devices are rooted.
I had above friend log into my Android Market account on her phone and buy a few apps for me, and she was able to.
Another friend of mine here owns the same Galaxy Tab I do and can also not access the Android Market.
So what is going on? How, exactly, does the market determine your location. And how do I fix it? MarketEnabler and MarketUnlocker don’t work on WiFi only devices.
Not a fix, but have you tried accessing the market from a computer, and purchasing the apps through it? If the computer can access all the apps, you may be able to choose your tab as the device you wish to install them on. Not a fix, but maybe a temporary work-around.

Also, what are a couple of the apps? Could be that the market doesn't recognize them as compatible with the 7+ (due screen resolution, lack of telephony, etc.) List a couple apps, and i can see if i have access to them. Good luck!

Yes. I apparently have 3 devices on there and all 3 are always grayed out. It says "This item cannot be installed on your device."

The 3 latest apps I've tried are gReader Pro, HD Widgets, and Tabletbar Hider (root). My friend was able to buy the first 2 for me on my account with her phone, but Tabletbar Hider is incompitable so it doesn't show up. When trying to download it from my PC, my friend's newly added phone says "This item is not compatible with your device" while my tablet gives the above error. I've had the market issue with every single app I've tried.

Yep, I have access to all three from my 7+. Strange that the options for your devices are grayed out. Hopefully somewhere here will have more to offer.

I forgot to add that if I can get an outside link to the marketplace app, if it's free I can download it fine. I can even browse within the market and download free apps. I cannot search for apps (free or pay) and I cannot buy apps even with an outside link into the marketplace. <--this is all on my tablet. My PC can find apps, I just can't download/buy them because it says I have no compatible devices.
Update from The Galaxy Tab Forum:
Bart Laroc
ref 3. ask your friend to log into her android account on your Tab & see the outcome
check & compare your settings with your friends
on a PC goto Android Market, login with your account, scroll to bottom of the page
click "My Market Account", settings .......... check your Device/s
click on "Orders", click on "Trouble Downloading"

I logged into my friend's marketplace account and was unable to access the market properly. I don't know exactly what I'm supposed to be doing in Devices and Trouble Downloading. My device shows up, as well as an old Nook Color and Kindle Fire, along with my friend's newly added phone. I am now able to buy things from my PC on the marketplace using my friend's phone, but only if it's not tablet specific (which sucks, 'cause I own a tab). As far as trouble downloading, I can download things if they're free. Oddly enough, I can't search for free from my tab's market, but I can download free. If I need to search for something I have to use alternate means (GetJar, Browser, etc.). I can not buy anything, though. And that's especially frustrating since a few of the things I needed to buy are tablet only apps that couldn't be bought from PC market (using friend's phone as device).
Also, my friend tried using her Toshiba Thrive with my market account and was unable to. So I wrong, her tablet can't access the US market. Not even using her own account can she access it. So it seems to be a tablet specific issue. But only "real" tablets, because like I said in a prior post, after rooting a Nook Color and Kindle Fire I was able to download, install, and use the marketplace without issue.

Hello Forum Members...
I am Ex-pat living in Shanghai China & just 2 days back bought GT-P5110. Unfortunately, i did not investigate properly before buying & just within few minutes of usage i came to know that this Tablet is lacking Google Play, Google Map,, Google Talk, Photo Share to Picasa from Gallery & even S-Memo missing...!!! Its been shocking to me...as i am fan of Android devices because of these stock features only.
Without all these things, seems this tablet is nothing more than a Digital Photo Frame to me. I called Samsung Customer support in China, they simply says the Chinese Models are like this only.....they have some of their own Chinese replacements to cater all these features...so no Google niceness in this. My frustration turned more severe when i came to know that it does not support even Flash. I am unable to play any flash contents in stock browser also.
I tried following:
I transferred FileExpert apk file from my HTC Desire to Tab, installed it & luckily found there 1Mobile Apps. Now i at least start downloading some apps.
I downloaded Flash Player from 1Mobile Apps, installed it - but no use,
I downloaded then Google Chrome browser, Mobile Opera - None is able to run flash contents.
Even have Google Maps widget in stock widgets, but when i am moving it to home screen, its just not opening, no response at all...when tap, the screen black-out & then return to home screen.
I even downloaded Google Play apk file & installed it, this also can not open.
Reader Hub, Music Hub...all taking to Chinese contents....OMG...pls. save me.
All online ebooks need Flash player plug-in...so i am helpless on that front also.
I tried to select country Singapore, India, US etc. while opening Samsung Apps first time, but then while downloading any Apps from Samsung Apps, it just says your Samsung ID is not workable in this Country!! If i select country China, the all apps available there are in Chinese only & Samsung Apps interface also in Chinese!!!
Can some expert here advice me if there is some way out of this...? Rooting & clockworkmod will help? I actually dont want to do so at so early stage & me not to expert to do all these.
I really need Google Play Store, Google Maps, GTalk & is there any way to change the Inbuilt Reader & Music Hub contents to English, by changing the Location to some other country or some other trick?
How to link the Flash Player app with Stock or downloaded browsers?
Pls. help.....
either your tablet being modded by others or its duplicate coz i have same p5110 from china and its working great .....try doing factory reset it might solve the problem ...or if u know how to root and flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722099 its performing well for my tab .....all the best !!!
I experienced the same thing with the P3100 I purchased earlier this week (I live in Beijing). The issue is that the Chinese government and Google don't like each other very much so Chinese models take this into account. What I did was install ClockworkMod Recovery, and then installed a stock version from Singapore or anywhere non-China of ICS 4.0.4. Worked like a charm more or less, though I still have issues accessing some free and all paid apps in Google Play.
There's a How-To at the top of the Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Developmement forum that's helpful. Also search sammobile or elsewhere in this forum for the stock ICS 4.0.4.
YMMV.
Just wanted to put this out there somewhere maybe it will help someone.
I recently purchased an Ematic FunTab Pro from Walmart.com and was able to install Google Play store by simply loading an older market.apk file.
All of the other Google Framework was already on this tablet.
Unfortunately the tablet I received had a damaged screen so I had to return it but wanted to let everyone know that it should be very possible to add Google Play to this tablet.
how do you load google play?
Hello,

I just searched it on Google. Just type something like "Google play store apk". I've got it installed on my little brother's fun tab pro but I can't figure out how to get it to work. It keeps force closing whenever I open it or when I try to install an app with it. I heard the Google framework doesn't come with the tablet, how did that other guy have the framework already there? Any help would be appreciated but I'm going to try a few more things to see if I can get it to work too. Thanks.
Same problem here, I bought two of them for my boys. Tryin to figure it out. I'm able to side load app from random websits. I'm not a big fan of that though.
I'm just using the slideme market for now. Its better than the broken app stores preinstalled
These things are horrible, nothing works, apps crash. I consider myself an advanced android user and this is pathetic. Im getting a headache. Were returning them back to Walmart later.
My solution:
Download APK extractor and Wifi file transfer (wifi transfer app optional) with registered android device.
Download desired apps to registered Android device.
Use APK extractor to extract app (no root needed)
Either use wifi transfer (wireless and more convenient) or use PC to transfer APK files to FunTab. (Files can be found in the "APKextractor" folder from registered android device and move them to to the desired folder in the FunTab ) detach from computer.
Install APK on fun tab using stock file browser
Thank me and enjoy.
Amazon App Store
Try installing the amazon app store.
Ematic Funtab 7" tablet
My sister bought this tablet for my 2 year old son for christmas he loves it but it would be nice if I can install Netflix on his tab so he can watch SuperWhy and YoGABA GABA and all that kiddie stuff he likes.
I'm trying to install the Google Play APK and Netflix APK the apps try to launch but they don't open, and they crash.
I read somewhere that I would have to send the tab to Ematic and they have to remove a "lock" so I can install all this stuff. From my understanding Zoodles causes this "lock" and it tricks the tab into thinking the outsourced apps are outdated and cannot launch.
I imagine that this so-called "lock" is just having to root this device.
Has anyone tried rooting it? He just received it, yesterday, I would hate to send it to Ematic just so they can root it.
Help?:laugh:
Google Play Store
I have a Yuntab S4 running 4.2.1 Android which has BIG problem downloading Google Play & any other aps from this store...Do you have a URL for the mentioned "older market.apk" file? Thanks!
Fellow lonely, neglected SCH-i815 users,
I recently downloaded a Google Play movie to watch offline during a plane flight, and was greeted with:
"There was a problem while playing.Touch to retry."
There are other threads related to this, but they are not specific to the Galaxy Tab 7.7. They generally revolve around DRM and rooted devices. I don't think root is the crux of the problem with the much neglected GT 7.7. I have a Droid X running Liberty (basically a Gingerbread ROM) and it works fine, even without disabling root access.
Here's what I've found:
o Running Electron73's P10 ROM:
oo With root enabled: much whining/fail in logs about DRM
oo With root disabled: no more whining about DRM, but a ton of "media server died" errors.
Unfortunately, I did not save the logs in question, but trust me on this one.
o Running Electron73's P11 ROM (upgraded verbatim from P10 per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2111799 )
oo Google Play DRM'd movies work fine. But I DID still have to disable root vi SuperSU first.
There are probably less than 5 people on the planet who may be encountering this issue, but if this post helps one other GT 7.7 owner, I'm all good. At first, I thought it might be an issue with Clockwork and the device appearing as somehow "altered", but I don't think that's the case, Again, all I did was flash Electron73's P11 ROM and temporarily disable root, no changes were made to the bootloader.
I'm actually wondering if Verizon's stock P10 is busted "out of the box" via OTA.
Please contain any rants about DRM. It is what it is, and I believe in paying a reasonable price for music/movies, and I think Google is playing fair here, as witnessed by my 100% ability to download/watch Google Play DRM'd content on my bastardized Droid X running a LIberty (Gingerbread) ROM. Google was also more than cooperative in refunding my purchase price after a brief explanation.
I am looking for 4od version 1.1 and the latest version of bbc Iplayer, I think it is version 1.5
Does anyone know how to download geo restricted apps like these from google play from within the US?
I tried blackmart and it really made my phone (razr maxx HD 32gig model) run so slow and it became unusable
I tried aptoide and they do not have 4od 1.1
Rooting my phone is not an option but I really enjoy watching UK tv
Thank you for any help the great and wise members here can give me.
Try with tunnel bear, but use it on wifi, it makes you phone thinks it's on US, UK or Canada, i downloaded the Vudu app this way
When you say use it on wifi I am not sure what you mean, can you explain, if you mean use it when connected to WIFI that is what I have been doing. I have a VPN that I use called http://www.featvpn.com and doing a xmyip will say I am in the UK but it will still not allow me to download the app. Is tunnel bear different or is there a specific order I need to follow
no one?
