Viewsonic G Tablet Super Thread (w/Market, Gmail, and Maps)
I've tried this twice already with a factory reset in between each try, and it's worked both times!
Attached is a bunch of files you will need to make this work.
1. Download the attached Zip file and extrat the contents to your desktop
2. Mount your G and upload the "G Tablet" folder to your G's internal SD card
3. Using Root Explorer (sorry I can't post the APK here, google for it) or any other file manager that supports root access, mount as R/W, and copy the contents of G Tablet\permissions to System\etc\permissions.
4. Copy the contents of G Tablet\framework to System\Framework
5. Copy the contents of G Tablet\lib to System\lib
6. Copy all the APK's found inside G Tablet\APK into your system\APK folder.
7. Install them in this order:
1. GoogleServicesFramework.apk
2. OneTimeInitializer.apk
3. SetupWizard.apk
4. Talk.apk
5. Vending.apk
6. Gmail.apk
7. Maps.apk
8. Make sure you remount it as R/O when you're done!
9. Restart your G, Connect to Wifi, then launch Market.
10. Follow the standard Google Account setup procedure and enjoy your newly installed Marke
also
how to put it back into R/O
Try es file manager
i tried and i cant copy the files. also used ASTRO with the same results i cant copy the files
You're using a really old procedure, why not just install GApps v2? Gets you all those files and more, via an update.zip file.
can u send me a link please
downlod your fev boot animation file from google
or the one provided here in QVGA only
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=744893
unzip it in pc remove bootanimation.zip from it and copy to your SD card
1. Using any root explorer app, rename (or delete, just make sure you have a backup) the 'samsungani' file to located in /system/bin
2. Rename the file 'bootanimation' (also located in /system/bin) to 'samsungani'
3. Now put the bootanimation.zip of your choice in /system/media folder
In some cases the samsungani will not be available so replace with samsungloop
thanks, =) i replace with samsungloop.
by the way do you know how to flash a kernel in this phone? i tried with the boot.img but did not work.
Do we need to root or flash the phone for doing this ?? Please help i am a noob in android related stuffs
rooting is required to use root explorer
and root explorer is required to replace in system/media

You need to delete some of the apps first because the rom is too big..
Change the keyboard, install a new one and delete the old one..also delete the launcher & use a small size one..
delete ringtones from system/media (use link2sd+root explorer for that)
And install light gapps from here..
Read the thread again before posting...people there have mentioned how to flash gapps..

In system/app delete these:
CMWallpapers.apk
Development.apk
Email.apk
Exchange2.apk
Galaxy4.apk
HoloSpiralWallpaper.apk
LiveWallpapers.apk
LiveWallpapersPicker.apk
MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk
QuickSearchBox.apk
Rom Manager
SoundRecorder.apk
SpareParts.apk
VideoEditor.apk
In system/media/audo remove ringtones.
Some of these applications is not in the ROM, but I do not know which.
What's up, remove it and Add to archive with winrar or 7z and make .zip file.
Thanks for your reply..

Press the left button and in menu choose Manage Applications and you see how much free memory you have on the internal memory.
The space not enough in lib folder not in all internal memory!!

I do not know. I've not have such a case. The important thing is that before you paste the file in
Root Explorer to set the R / O instead of the R / W.
Yes before i paste the file in Root Explorer i set the R / O instead of the R / W.
I also tried to replace the lib folder already present in the internal memory with the folder that I downloaded from the post, but then I can't change the permissions of the file...

In Root Explorer copy file and go in data/data/flashe player and paste there. Copy from original place. From maps where is installation package for flashe player.
The original paack is zip file, i extract this and copy with root explorer but the file there isn't in lib folder!!

Hey guys,
Im having issues copying apk files to the system/app folder, I have tried three different file managers(root browser, root explorer, file explorer). I mount system set it to r/w and when i try to copy or move the apk file i get operation failed/ cannot copy file. I tried copying the same apk (motogallery) to my nexus 7 (android 5.0) it worked fine. However with my nexus 5 its a no go. I'm running stock lollipop rom with root.
Thanks
edit: figured it out had to copy apk to priv-app folder instead of system/app. Strange on the nexus 7 file was copied to system/app and worked just fine.
been searching for system/priv-app folder but can only find system/app. i'm using file explorer on a rooted galaxy tab 7.7.
1. can i install trebuchet.apk to system/app folder?
2. or can i create new folder - system/priv-app and place the apk there.
been searching for the forum but can't find no related topics. can a benevolent someone lead me to the right directions?
Yeah move it to sys/app, also set correct permissions 644 and owner/group to root..
