Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Stoned99: Thanks for your help. However, when I run MUSIC it immediately scans SD Card and within a couple of seconds makes no finds. I press the menu button and it only shows the following selections:
1. Party Shuffle
2. Shuffle all
3. Play All
4. Save as Playlist

When I run Gallery it scans SD Card and does not find anything.

What is the purpose of the Micro SD Card if these two default apps provided as part of the Android OS 2.1, do not access the Micro SD Card?

I have email Coby asking for support in regards to this plus a couple other issues 2 days ago. Still have not received an answer.

Any suggestions?

Constant Wake Up

---

I still am playing with my MID7015 and discovered last night that if I Disable Lock Screen the unit constantly awakes without any action on my part. I read that some of you are having this problem. Maybe this is your problem and corrective action? Hope I have at least helps one of you.

Thanks so much for this guide

mmm... I guess maybe my music player was updated somehow when I installed the Gapps. Follow this guide to install them

The first thing you need to do is make sure you install all of the available packages in the SDK manager. One of those packages is called "Google USB driver package, revision 4". Once you install that package you will see a folder under C:\android-sdk-windows called "google-usb_driver". That is the folder that will contain the .inf file.

I have a similar issue. can't seem to install driver. the driver is there but there is error, ADB interface, system can't find the file specified.
any help appreciated...any one with similar issue?
13. Click "Have Disk" and browse to the c:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver folder. Double click on android_winusb.inf.

Intro Steps

1. Put your device in USB Debugging mode.
From the main menu, press Settings, Applications, make sure Unknown sources is checked.
Press Development,and make sure that USB Debugging is enabled.



2. Turn on your WIFI by going to Settings, Wireless & Networks, check WIFI,and then Wi-Fi settings.


Select your Wi-Fi access point.


3. Open AppsLib,press the search hour glass icon,and type File Manager and press Search. I like the File Manager by mmaapp. Install it. Close AppsLib




Rooting your Tablet

By rooting, what they mean is that you will have full control over all of the files and folders on your tablet. This is a good and a bad thing. It is good because we can add programs. It is also bad because you can delete files that you shouldn’t…meaning you could kill your tablet if you mess around.
1.

From your PC, download z4Root and copy it to your micro SD card. Z4Root can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953


2. Put the sd card in your Kyros, and open File Manager.


3. In File Manager, Press SD card, then press z4root.x.x.x.apk (x indicates the version number), and press install.


4. Press Open

5. Z4Root will open. Press Permanent Root. Once it is done rooting, it will reboot your Kyros.



Installing the Windows software and ADB drivers

1. Download and install The Java Development Kit 6here (you will need to register on their site first):

https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP...-CDS_Developer

2. Download and unzip the android-sdk-r07-windows.zip file to the C: drive on your computer.

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

3. Go to the android-sdk-windows folder that you unzipped


4. Launch SDKManager.exe


5. Under choose which package to install, click accept all. As a part of what it is downloading, it will download the Android USB drivers. This part will probably take like 30 minutes or more to complete.


6. Once the download is done, close the SDK Manager.


7. You should now see a folder called usb_driver. Open that folder.


8. You will see a file called android_winusb.inf. Open that file in notepad.

--- Alternatively you can just download an android_winusb.inf file with all of the modifications already done here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/43545116...oid_winusb.inf

--- You would then just copy over the original android_winusb.inf file in your \android-sdk-windows\usb_driver folder.
--- Once the file is over written, skip to step 12

9. Right underneath the section labeled [Google.NTx86] paste in the following:

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_DEED
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_DEED&MI_01
; Android Eclair
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C01
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C02&MI_01
%SingleBootLoaderInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0FFF



10. Right underneath the section labeled [Google.NTamd64] paste in the following:

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_DEED
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_DEED&MI_01

---- Note --- Thanks goes to phygman for the code here to get the ADB driver working in XP!

11. Save the changes in the android_winusb.inf file

12. Plug in your Kyros device. Windows will still not find the driver for the device, but go into the Device manager, and select AndroidEclair, and update driver, browse my computer, let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.


13. Click "Have Disk" and browse to the c:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver folder. Double click on android_winusb.inf.


14. Select Android ADB Interface.


15. It will then come up with some messages about this is unsigned or something, are you sure you want to do this, click yes or continue.

Then it will install the driver and detect the kyros.





Installing ClockworkMod Recovery to back up your Kyros.

1. On your pc, download recovery.img and place it on the root folder of your sd card (\)


Recovery.img can be found here: sendspace.com vkv6yz


2. Put the sd card back into the tablet and then plug the usb cable into the tablet, and then your pc. Make sure your tablet is powered on.


3. Open the Command Prompt in windows (cmd.exe)


4. Go to the android-sdk-windows\tools folder. Since I placed the android-sdk-windows folder on the root of my c drive, I typed cd\android-sdk-windows\tools and pressed enter.


5. Type adb shell and press enter.


6. Type su and press enter.


7. Type flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img and press enter.


8. Press and hold the CTRL button, then press C.


9. Type adb reboot recovery and press enter.


10. Your Kyros tablet will reboot. Clockwork Mod Recovery will then load.
When Navigating through ClockworkMod Recovery, here are the keys:

Home is down
Menu is select
Back is back

11. Press the Home button until backup and restore is highlighted and press Menu.


12. Backup should already be selected. Press Menu.


13. It will now do a complete system backup. This is ESSENTIAL as it is VERY easy to play around and break your Kyros to the point that it is useless.


14. It will say “Backup complete” once the backup is done.


15. Reboot system now should be highlighted. Press Menu to reboot.


Installing Google Marketplace

1. Remove your sd card and put it back in your pc. Download the file gapps-passion-EPE54B-signed.zip and place it on the root of your sd card (\).


The file can be downloaded here: mediafire.com mjmmfmm0jez


2. Connect the usb cable to the Kyros and the pc.


3. Put the sd card back into the tablet and then plug the usb cable into the tablet, and then your pc. Make sure your tablet is powered on.


4. Open the Command Prompt in windows (cmd.exe)


5. Go to the android-sdk-windows\tools folder. Since I placed the android-sdk-windows folder on the root of my c drive, I typed cd\android-sdk-windows\tools and pressed enter.


6. Type adb reboot recovery and press enter.


7. It will boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery menu.


8. Press Home until install zip from sd card is selected and press menu.


9. Press Home until choose zip from sd card is selected and press menu.


10. Press Home until gapps-passion-EPE54B-signed.zip is selected and press Menu.


11. Press Home until Yes – Install gapps-passion-EPE54B-signed.zip is selected and press Menu.


12. It will then install the Google Market.


13. Once the install is done, it will say Install from sd card complete.


14. Press the back button

15. Reboot system now should be highlighted. Press Menu.


16. It will reboot the Kyros. You will see a Wizard appear. Go through the Wizard


17. You now have the Android Marketplace installed on your Kyros.


I would also recommend installing the AppBrain app from the Google Market. It gives you the ability to install more apps then just the Google Market alone.

Enjoy!

I went and installed the update from coby first. I went and followed the instructions in your post here. I put the recovery img in the root of the sdcard. I still get the message flash image not found after putting in the commands. Please Help!!

The process becomes a bit more difficult if you install the Coby update first. You will need to get ahold of a copy of the file "flash_image" and push it to the tablet via ADB before you can use it to replace the stock recovery image.

theres any custom roms of 2.1??? ANYTHING?!?!

I rooted this tablet with visionary temproot then flashed clockwork it all went fine then attempted permroot now the device is off.

I did check adb devices and nothing shows, happens on both computers is this just a windows 7 thing.

Im hoping i dont have to wipe and install xp just to do this.

I'm having issues with window7 32 and 64 - solution to this was simple - download terminal emulator app from appslib and run clockwork recovery and from there you can install android market zip file from your sd
