I doubt it. I have the Vizio VTAB1008 tablet. It has a built in IR emitter and the App just functions like a basic universal remote control.

What purpose would be served by porting it over to be used with Wifi/BT if the devices it's meant to control only respond to IR signals? Which the EVO obviously lacks?

Just received my 7 Plus wifi. So far I like it, although there doesnt seem to be a lot of interest from xda or other forums. Since it was just released today, I suppose I need to be a bit patient. This is the closest forum so I am adding this post here.

I really need a root and adhoc fix so I can use it with my ET4G and sell my ipad!. Also I want to hide the status bar. I may dig into it attempting the 10.1 or 8.9 root, but I have a bit of reading to do on it first.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] BarryH_GEG:
What processor is in it? Exynos? Tegra? Qualcomm?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] msaraiva:
Hi there! Can you provide us with a system dump from your tablet? We can help with rooting. :)

Its not released yet! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Coentje44:
It is. Check Amazon.com
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] hoss_n2:
+1 on this , this question is asked allot without any answer :) and also the benifit of the infrared port , but @the OP are you sure it is the 7plus it is not released yet

I ordered it expecting it in about 10 more days or so. Lo and behold I got a shipping notice yesterday. :)

I have read that it uses the tegra2 processor, but I see no evidence of that. And now I attempt to find it on the web and it is nowhere to be seen.

I will definitely work on getting a system dump tonight after work. I might ask for some help onthis.

The main thing is that you are helping us to get ICS on SGS2, and I Thank you for that. I really hope that you will get us the system dump.:D

Very nice man.

Congrats on your purchase.

I want to sell my 10.1 but would like a bigger screen than the 7 plus but with Exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] volwrath:
Thanks, I like it, but I hope development catches on like the acer iconia a100. I would have liked to opt for the 7.7, but I read its not coming to the states and the pricetag will likely be heftier.

I bought it thinking it had a tegra2 but was elated to find it has the exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I think, if I weren't already awaiting the HD SAMOLED+ awesomeness of the 7.7" tab, I'd probably sell my 8.9 now and get a 7 Plus. I've been saying all along that the Exynos is a beast. Tegra2 is a huge disappointment for me...

P.S. I've seen preorders from Expansys and Mobile City of ~$600 - 700 for the 7.7 import. Have my 3G 7.7 preordered now from Expansys. Oh baby! Can't wait!

I have adb set up correctly and drivers installed. When I use command prompt on Windows 7 64 bit and type in "adb devices" it lists a string of letters/numbers and after that it says device. When I type in adb push rage /sdcard/ the command prompt moves the cursor to a new blank line and I can't type anything in. Is this normal? Phone is HTC EVO shift 4G running stock 2.3.3 and HTC sense 2.1. Again comp OS is Windows 7 64 bit. Yes the rage file is in the /platform-tools folder. Any ideas on if this is normal/alternative rooting methods (excluding ShiftRR and other comp programs. I checked them all. No apps either. They don't work, I've tried them all.) If it helps I'm following the guide at: wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Evo_Shift_4G:_Full_Update_Guide
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Indirect:
1) Rage doesnt work on 2.3.3, it was a froyo exploit. I suggest either using the script I made to automatically do it for you if you want or you can do it manually.

2) The auto root method that I created is located at the link --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1277793

3) Manual method is in general section.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 999Sam999:
Thanks bunches. I'm going to try your script next time I try. I'm usually kinda busy. And does your script need any additional files? This is gonna sound like a n00b question but it's because I AM a n00b. What the heck is RUU? It sounds like an EXE file I dl on my comp and run. Correct or not? Sorry if this has been asked anywhere else but I have been searching since August trying to find a rooting method and now that one is close I'm impatient.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Indirect:
It includes everything you need. Just extract everything to a single folder then run Fre3atlast.bat
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Indirect:
An RUU is an official way to "update" firmware on your phone in either PG06IMG.zip or .exe format so you were correct. The script even gives you a link to download the format of your choice.

No there is currently no one touch root tool for the shifts that are on 2.3.3 because you have to physically push an image to misc.partition, but once you get it downgraged then you can use like ShiftRR and let that root for you,hit up the stickie section for all the info needed

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Indirect:
1) until you can verify that you can root again after taking an OTA, you NEVER update. 2) Just try and run the script again, then try to downgrade.

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
Pre or post rooted? If your rooted you can use Titanium Backup (or Mybackup if your cheap) to back up apps. If your not rooted it's a whole process trying to backup apps. Your almost just better off making a list of your apps and downloading once you get root..also, all paid apps are tied to your google account and will be saved on the market. As far as contacts, sms and such there are plenty of apps on the market that will put a backup on your SD card.

Could I use this to chmod, say, system/bin and system/xbin and /data/local/tmp?

Sorry for all the questions but needing to hook my phone up to a computer when I want to temproot is a pain (haven't got a permroot method to work yet)

Even though no one looks here anymore, I tried flashing the engineering hboot, then I looked at the original, and at the file /dev/block/mmcblk0p18, and the second one didn't change to match the first. What's going on here?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
Here's your problem..

You HAVE to run the RUU. You cannot root Gingerbread, you must be on the older Hboot in order to root.

Maybe try a different pc or cord if you can't get the exe to work. Also you can use the zip to RUU. It's linked in the Hboot info thread. Throw on the root of your SD, boot into bootloader and let ot do its thing.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 999Sam999:
Thanks. I didn't want to use the .zip because that means formatting (thereby erasing) my sdcard. I guess i'll try the .zip next. Thanks. And another related ?. WHY doesn't the hboot flash? I mean, I know the hboot hasn't been downgraded, but what is wrong with the current one that won't allow it to be flashed?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
There's nothing wrong with the newer Hboot other than there's no root exploit.

If you haven't already you need to read this thread Hboot information and downgrading
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 999Sam999:
Thanks. And I read it, I was just wondering why the newer one can't be edited that's all. Thanks again. I just wish downgrading hboot didn't erase everything, and i'm trying to find a way around that.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
As of right now, there's no way around it. Your going to have to RUU in order to root. While temp rooted you can back everything up. There are apps that will back up almost everything.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 999Sam999:
OH MY GOSH! I got an alternate hboot to flash and stick (I'm not sure how I did It) but it wasn't s-off. Only difference is I used ES File Explorer to use root explorer and mount /system as rw (in settings), then deleted the mmcblk0p18 (yes, it disappeared, and no, it did NOT say that it couldn't be deleted). Then I used cat /data/local/hboot_engine.nb0 > /dev/block/mmcblk0p18 AND IT WORKED! Shame it wasn't s-off (idk y) so when I boot into hboot and it scans sdcard for PG06IMG.zip (idk if that is what it really says, can't remember) before anything else is scanned it says something about checking CE USB IN. I am NOT kidding.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Valde_Edius:
I've followed the post by xboarder56. My phone has an unlocked bootloader and is rooted. I did not receive any errors when running the command: Fastboot flash boot [boot.img path]. I attempted to use QuikSense and BeastMod. I am using windows, but have access to linux if necessary (would prefer to finish this in windows though).

I believe the problem might be that I do not have an sdcard. Also, I did not see any directions relating to copying files TO the phone, and as such did not. Does loading the boot.img load these files onto the phone or is this something that I need to be doing (also, how do you do that? Guessing I will need linux for that since I don't have an sdcard and will need to write to the device while windows can't read it).
[HTC Amaze 4G] HenryHdz0903:
You need a SD card, but xboarder is working on a recovery that doesn't require one
[HTC Amaze 4G] Valde_Edius:
I thought it might be as much. I ordered an sdcard and it should be here tomorrow. Do I need to perform any additional steps (such as copying files somewhere) or are the steps I am already performing going to be enough?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
xboarder said the new recovery works with internal memory as well so shouldn't be a card problem
[HTC Amaze 4G] Valde_Edius:
So I got my SD card and copied all the files to the root of it and performed the flash again. Still nothing. Where should I be copying the files to?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Let's backtrack.

What recovery do you have currently?

Stock, xboarders recovery (identifiable with the X in the background) or the CWM Recovery?

What files did you put and where did you put them?

Name the files you downloaded them and where you put them (external sdcard, internal sdcard, in a folder, etc)

Are you able to flash anything?

Did you format your sdcard from the phone?

So yeah... answer those for us please.

If the files are on the root of your INTERNAL SDCARD then you need xboarder's recovery.

If the files are on the root of your EXTERNAL SDCARD then you need the standard clockwork recovery (download from ROM Manager)

Maybe it is not the best 7" Android tablet, but you could find it with Rock-chip rk2918(Cortex A8 1.2GHz) process and 7“ TFT(1024 x 600).

The main feature of this tablet is that it provide the much thinner(Thickness only 9.4mm) tablet than others.

It's not really thin though is it? The iPad 2 (probably the most popular tablet) and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (probably the second most popular tablet) are both considerably thinner.
[Android General] donsh00tmesanta:
this is probably a lot cheaper....but where can I purchase these things?
[Android General] JavaKrypt:
You can find many more on their site too, they're all similar in specs. I can't post links, too few posts, but Google "Shenzhen Highkee Electronic Technology" and around the 3rd link down look for one with "highkee" in the URL. It has a menu on the side to find their android tablets. But judging from their business model, they may not sell direct, you'd have to go through another company - they sell in bulk unit orders (minumum appears to be 500).

Sure these might have been the kind I saw in street market stalls when I was on holiday last month, they seem to fit the bill. The M703 one looks quite nice but the screen quality is what always bothers me when buying new stuff.
