Default 7015B?

Anyone have any info on the 7015B? It's running 2.3.3. I can't get it connected to my PC, because the driver isn't working, and I can't even get it to root because Z4 doesn't seem to work on it. Any ideas?

Managed to root it but dont have an SD card yet so I guess I cant install CWM yet. Are there any ROMs for this tablet?

I ordered a 32gb SD card, could that be used as "virtual RAM" to speed up the tablet?

same problem installing drivers
I followed these directions exact and it went smoothly thanks to KaiyoDroid

Congrats on the successful root Outlaw

I also managed to finally get around to rooting my 7015B; but I ended up going a slightly different route than what's been mentioned here. Turned out to be easy as pie, too.

First I tried the GingerBreak v1.2 .APK, but that didn't work. It loaded the app, I tapped the "Root" option; and it just remained stuck looping on the "exploit" screen.

Then, I used something called SuperOneClick v2.3.3; and that got the tablet rooted successfully with Super User installed on the very first try.

More info here: [APP]SuperOneClick v2.3.3 - Motorola Exploit Added! - xda-developers

I'm a complete newcomer to doing this type of stuff, so I'm not sure all these steps are necessary... but here's everything I did, nonetheless:

(Note: I'm on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit)

1 - Installed the Android SDK
2 - Loaded the SDK Manager (included with the Android SDK; make sure you right-click the icon and select Properties to run the SDK Manager as Administrator under the Compatibility Tab). Then go down to the "Extras" on the file tree, select the Google USB Driver Package and install that.
3 - Once the Driver Package was finished installing, I closed out the SDK Manager/Android SDK completely. I then hooked the Coby Kyros 7015B up via the USB cable to my PC and let Windows install the drivers (Make sure USB Debugging is set to ON in your tablet's settings under Settings -> Applications ->Development -> USB Debugging).

NOTE: Before beginning Step 4, make sure you do not have an SD Card inserted or mounted in the Kyros' SD Card slot. (I simply removed mine altogether just to be sure)

4 - Load SuperOneClick v2.3.3, select "zergrush" from the drop down menu marked "Exploit" on the right, then click the "Root" option.
5 - SuperOneClick prompted me that a necessary Gingerbread driver was missing and asked if I wanted it to download/install it for me. I clicked "Yes".
6 - Nothing else needs to be done and the entire rooting process is completely automated. Let SuperOneClick run it's course until you get the confirmation message that the tablet was successfully rooted. (It isn't necessary to run the test it prompts about after installation if you don't want to)

... And that was it.

The only thing that I had to deal with afterward, was the tablet went into a boot loop where it would just constantly loop the "android" logo start-up screen. Nothing I did would shut off the tablet and it wasn't responsive to any button presses at all. To be honest, I panicked a bit at first and thought I'd soft-bricked the tablet. Turns out, I was worried about nothing. The fix was to simply flip the tablet onto it's backside and use the tip of a ball point pen to push the small "Reset" button on the back of the device. Once that was done, it rebooted perfectly fine. As soon as the tablet was once again fully loaded up and running, I went in and checked, and sure enough Super User was installed and the tablet was successfully rooted.

On a side note, it was also a bit of a pain to find an actual download link for SuperOneClick v2.3.3. The name of the file is "SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse.zip" and can be found hosted on 4shared.com via a regular Google search.

SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse.zip - 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download

Haven't tried Clockwork Mod or getting the Android Market on there.... yet.

Now, I'm off to Kyros Tablet Zone to see if I can load any of the many custom Android 2.3.3 ROMS originally made for the Coby Kyros 7015/7015A models. Should work just fine now I imagine. I'll post back with my results!

Default cwm help

I have a MID7015, got it rooted but can't seem to get CWM to install, I also noticed that when I've tried to flash in recovery I get update aborted msg. Also noticed that there is folder named tflash in the root of my sd card, and that's where the flash_image and recovery file is, shouldn't they be in the root of the sd card/ Also I din't create the ftflash folder, it was done automatically.

hey guys, new to this, just got a MP720, not much firmware about for this one, not must of anything really,

I did however find this site with links to the to original firmware from MPMAN,

using google translate haha, it seems the two flavours of chipset for this taplet,

Hynix NAND firmware:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/29403117/MP...02.3_Hynix.rar
Micron NAND firmware:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/29403117/MP...2.3_Micron.rar
Flash Tool:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/29403117/up...troduction.rar

that said i have not tested these FW's and cant vouch for the safety of using them,

I'm not a developer but hopefully they could be usefull for making a cyanogenmod for it (fingers crossed haha) or some one who has bricked there tap,

Unhappy VERY strange list of problems trying to root/update Kyros 7015

OK, Here's the problem I'm having. I got the 7015 as a trade on Craigslist, and the first thing I wanted to do was root it and get rid of 2.1. I don't know if my getting it secondhand has something to do with it (I don't know how since he did a system reset on it), but I've been having problems doing anything with the tablet since I started the rooting process.

First, I attempted to download a file manager program from the appslib, only to have it force me to install an update. Once I did, I was told that appslib was not compatible with my device (?). I tried installing the update from Coby's site on the SD card, but no matter how many times I try, I cannot get it to the point where my model number says 7015A like they state it should. Moving on...

After a few frustrating hours I was finally able to glean a workaround by going to appslib.getjar.com (before I continue, I was able to download and install the getjar app from a link through the tab's browser, but when I tried downloading something, nothing happened...it would refresh the description page of the app I was attempting to download and that's it...going through the website above was the only way I was able to download the file manager). Once I got the file manager installed, lo and behold there was no way for me to access the 'sd card'...it just wasn't showing up. The only way I was able to install z4root was to email the apk to myself, then use the tablet browser to download the attachment and install. Surprisingly the z4root went off without a hitch...

After installing the sdk stuff on my pc, I went in to modify the driver in the device manager for "android eclair". I used to downloadable .inf file listed to make things what I hoped to be easier...yeah, right....After I double click the winusb.inf file, I get an error message saying "Windows found the driver, but was unable to install it due to the following reason"...underneath that it said something like "requested file not found"...didn't tell me WHAT file, just that it wasn't found. I even went so far as to hunt down a winusbcoinstaller.dll file and placed it in the same directory as the .inf file...no help whatsoever...same error. I'd be happy to screenshoot that error window and post a link if anyone is interested, but at this point I've finally reached a standstill. I can't think of any way to use a workaround for not being able to install the driver, and I obviously can't proceed any further without it. I'm not exactly a stranger to rooting/modding/jailbreaking....I've done a (I'm embarrassed to say) iPhreeze 3G, 3GS, and most recently my beloved Samsung Captivate, and I haven't had nearly the amount of problems nor spent nearly this amount of time(well over 4 hours so far) on a single device like this tablet. I refuse to believe I'm the only one who's had some if not all of these problems, and I'm really hoping someone can help me with this...thanks!
