[Completed] Coby kyros mid8048 - brick. - XDA Assist

Hello i've been digging around this forum all morning, and nothing so far.
so i have this coby kyros mid8048 tablet.
i went to this page to root the tablet.
w w w.androidtablets.net/threads/coby-8048-recovery-custom-rom.51742
it has vampirefo's recovery, root, and stock rom zips.
i grabbed all of them. wasn't sure what order to proceed, because he said the roms/zips were signed and could be installed from the builtin recovery consoles.
so i took the big one. stock_8048_root_gapps_signed.zip
renamed it update.zip
went to settings>about>update>install
and ran it.
the tablet rebooted and installed his 150MB package, and now my tablet is stuck on the boot screen with only the word COBY sitting there. it doesn't progress or complete the boot process. so it's kinda bricked now.
i then installed his recovery zip and then rebooted, pulled up his recovery console, and tried reinstalling the other zips one after the other to see if one would make my tablet bootable again. NO DICE. his zip bricked my tablet.
i read in the comments that others had gotten it to work, but no word on any that got bricked.
so i need help fixing this tablet. i have some kind of cwm recovery console running on it that works.
CWM-Based Recovery v6.0.1.1 for Coby 8048 by Vampirefo. -and it has all the usual recovery options.
So what do i need to do to fix it, and where can i find the items necessary to fix it?? vis-a-vis: stock rom, recovery rom, updates, etc....
i can't seem to find any other zips for coby 8048. funny thing is there's billions of posts about this thing, and they seem to have sold quite a large number of them, but i can't find a plain old stock rom. if anyone can upload a stock rom i'd be very greatful in getting this tablet running again.
i also noticed that vampirefo's stock zip doesn't have an IMG file in it, i thought that was necessary when flashing tablets?? -but that's not importat as simply finding the original stock rom.
please help. -MTRX

Help with Coby Kyros Internet Tablet MID 7005-4G

I am currently unable to boot my tablet. I had been trying some modifications designed for other tablets, and it messed up my tablet something good. What I need most of all is the framework.jar file located within the /system/framework folder on the tablet device. I have tried the framework.jar file from a Coby Kyros MID 7015 model tablet, but that does not seem to work for this tablet.
If you would like to help an need instructions, please reply and I will give you any instructions you need. Thanks to anyone willing to assist.

Hello,
I am wondering if you could help me out if you have any idea how to fix my coby kryos 7005. I reset my tablet due to instructions given by cobyusa.com because of my appslib not working so they suggested to reset the device. I did what they said and after I reset it the device wont boot anymore and just stuck in Coby logo and turns off after 2min. I downloaded the update.zip from cobyusa.com and placed it on my sdcard and apply the update by pushing the power button and the home softkey at the same time and I did the procedure. After the update I restarted the device and still the same thing stuck in Coby logo. Any help will appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
Thanks for the help, infinityhombre. Unfortunately, I've went ahead with ANOTHER attempted update and I think I've completely bricked it this time. Before, the adb commands would work and the computer would recognize it, but not anymore. Now when I plug it in the computer asks for a driver and I can't find one that works. I can't even boot into recovery anymore. I've heard that FWDN (or was it PWDN?) was the software I needed and that it should have the driver I require, but I can't seem to find the software. Does anyone know of a download link for it?
coldjava, if I could help you, I would. I have yet to do any recovery or update that has actually worked at all.
If you accidentally used the mid7015 update.zip, you will probably have to ask coby to send you a full copy of the stock rom to fix it. Good luck with that.
Well, a 64 bit driver to use with the FWDN flashing software would help too.
Huzzah! I had found a download for a 64 bit version of the FWDN driver, and I was able to get my tablet flashed with a working OS. I found the driver on slatedroid, and I would include a direct download for it, but this message board won't let me post it. You just need to do a search for 'vtcdrv for x64 windows' on that message board if you need to find it. Everything else you need for it is included with the download for the rom for it.
could you point me in the direction of the rom you used...I'v found lots for the x5a just looking for one that is confirmed to work with coby 7005, does the rom include root and google market?
I am looking for the Coby 7005 rom also.. I'm also trying to figure out specifically which files need to be flashed for it. Does anyone have a screenshot?
I've given up looking, I have root, clockwork recovery, and market and feel more comfortable in the android environment now

I just bought one of these tablets for really cheap on ebay. The previous owner lost the password to it and I just planned on doing a factory reset on it. Unfortunately, the only support I can find from Coby is for the 7015, leaving the 7005 owners high and dry. If I could get a copy of the stock firmware, even just a dump directly from someone else's working 7005 that would be great. I bought this tablet specifically for my kids, so I just need to be able to run Angry Birds and watch movies on it.
Yes, the X5A-G works
Hey, I just got one of these (the 7005) which I will be returning to the seller since the battery doesn't charge but I can confirm that the CWM recovery image for the X5A-G does in fact work, as does the X5A-G Cyanogenmod ROM. No, by default it does not have the market, but grabbing the GAPPS zip from the cyanogenmod github (or practically anywhere else on this forum) will in fact install the market.

clockwork recovery for mid7014

Ok so I rooted my friends coby kyros mid7014 and have spent the last 2 hours scouring the web looking for a Clockwork Recovery and Custom ROM for this tablet. Sorry it's here I can't post in the development section. I haven't had enough posts because I usually search until I find an answer because there's usually a solution somewhere. I would assume this has been asked before and someone has tried to figure this out but I can't find an answer for the life of me...
Thanks in advance!
And your question is...?
For custom ROMs for your tablet go to Google and look for: Kyros Tablet Zone KTZ
That's a website specialized for all Coby Kyros tablets. You won't find custom ROMs for those tablets here.
Looking for nandroid restore files for 7014
I just messed up flashing a custom rom to my gf's mothers 7014. My backups aren't working so i was wondering if anyone had stock backup or restores i could have. I ended up trying to use nandroid img files from a 7012 and got the tablet to boot but I can't get the touch screen to work.

[Completed] [Q] Unable to flash a custom Recovery image for Jiayu G2F

Hi, I recently purchased a new Jiayu-G2F and am having difficulties replacing the current stock ROM. I suspect this is a result of not being able to replace the stock Recovery (currently 3e).
I am using MobileUncle and several alternative .img files (by CWM) I found on the internet, in addition to .img files of Recoveries known to be working on identical G2F devices of friends. But whenever I ask MobileUncle to replace the Recovery and boot into it, the phone will only boot into the Stock Recovery (by 3e). It seems as if something is blocking me from installing a different Recovery image, although I get no error message indicating there was a problem with the new Recovery. The phone simply goes through the process and lands back into 3e's recovery. I'd appreciate it if someone could share his insights from similar cases.
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. I think the best place for you to ask this is in this thread:
Jiayu G2S - "unofficial forum"
It looks like it's a central location for fellow Jiayu G2F owners to get together and help each other out.
Good luck!
Thread closed, thanks.

[Completed] Arnova 10cG3 softbricked, dont know how to recover

I have been searching for answer over 10 days, but still can't figure out how to resolve this. I don't how exactly it bricked, it just couldn't start anymore. I can get into recovery menu, but there isn't any option to recover android. It was rooted before, and worked normally. I cant find any other way to flash any rom on it. I appreciate any help on this matter, tnx in advance!

Hello, and welcome to XDA Assist!
Please register for an account so you can post to the rest oif the site. The [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly] thread of the > Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting will provide a good start to resolve your issue.
What seems confusing is that there may be some Arnova's made by Archos. Archos has a forum, but sadly, Arnova does not (not finding much about your device either).
At any rate, try the thread/forum above, and be patient with regard to a response. This seems to be a rare device, so it would be harder to get the attention you need.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
The other way
I understood that the complete system is wiped out. I can use adb while its in recovery menu. I used it to transfer official system image onto it, but in its options i cant find it. I transferred it to multiple locations, all of them can be seen in recovery menu but all are empty. I wonder if there is a way to flash some other android version on it? Or some ROM like CWM, but apparently there are no official releases. And since i am not very good at this i wonder how to make sure that kernel is OK? Can such thing be done? It has Android system recovery <3e>

CWM is a recovery, not a ROM, but can be used to flash ROMs.
With 3e, you should be able to flash the stock ROM for the device via adb (called side loading). So that may work for you.
Hope this helps.

[Completed] cubot x17 custom ROM help. ( stock ROM is full of bloatware/malware)

Hello all
I don't want to be that guy that makes one post and runs for the hills I actually want to be part of the community, unfortunately this current situation is driving me nuts, to the point where I just have to post.
You see I own a cubit x17 that features quite a lot of bloatware and malware that needs removing.
I have rooted my device using kingroot and even gone as far as to install TWRP. I have downloaded a custom ROM for my phone that is saved in my downloads.
The problem is I just can't figure out how to install it...... I've tried everything from using TWRP to manual booting (there's not a single install option on the manual boot screen) and as far as I know no SD card in the phone and I cant seem to find the download folder from the boot screen.
Please can somebody help before I pull the remaining hair I have left out.
Hello and thanks for using XDA Assist,
Your device does not have a device specific forum here on XDA, Please create a thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help. Experts there should be able to help you.
Always read carefully before proceeding.
Good luck,
