I am trying to find a how to root idea usa 7" tablet from fry's for $77.00. Their is a lot of rooting programs but I have not been able to find anything on this model.

Also what would be a good rom to flash it with? I tried finding out if uberoid or cyanogenmod would work but I could not find any info on this model.

Not to sure what model I have that I would be able to flashing this rom with, either uberoid, cm7/cm9 or miui? Help

Model: MID, sv7206 v1.4, kernel 2.6.35.7-infotm

processor armv6 rev5,

hardware imapx200,

android 2.3.3,

brand infotmic,

display gri40,

release codename REL

bootloader unknown

I don't know if this is the right model IDea USA IUMID-0071 because the spec's are off. Http ://ideausa.us/produects.html but similar. I am looking for rom that is more update/modern. any potters?

Does anyone have the original rom for this or know how to make a backup this rom?

Well I am thinking that is might be this model but not to sure wm8650,SV7206 v1.4 or IDea USA IUMID-0071.

The screen is very slow on this model. Unless you use a pen then is works better.

Also hoping to be able to flash this to ics 4

Just trying to get some clarification.

AirDroid is a fast, free app that lets you wirelessly manage & control your Android device from a web browser Over-The-Air. Just for anyone that wants to know.

I don't know if airdroid can copy all of your file to the desktop from your browser. But I don't know how the file system works for the android. So I wouldn't know if it can or is there a good place to read about the android file system? Wait I know I will google that. google is my friend. But I was hoping for a more advance person that could answer on this topic than me.

Rooting Idea USA Tablet

Oh my, what a mess...

This post is in regards to the Idea USA Tablet (Unable to Root)

My specs:

- Idea USA Tablet (Made in China)

- Model Number: MID (Unknown)

- Android Version: 2.3

- Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7

- Build Number: MID-userdebug 2.3 GRH55 (ENG)

Issues:

Whelp, I have tried the basics and I can't get this thing to root for anything. I was able to get it to hook into the PC through USB. There are 2 usb slots on the side of the tablet. I believe one is for HOST and the other usb is for OTG (Charging). Once I figured out the host port, then I had to download the drivers for this poorly made tablet...But, what drivers? You go to the Idea US website and you get no helpful information. So, there are no drivers made specifically for this $100 dollar generic tablet from FRY's. Ok... No big deal... So, I download the default "Android USB Drivers".

Peachy, it worked! Now, I can transfer files back and forth between the card(s). Wonderful, first step down, next step was to root. So, I read up on how to root with Super One Click.

Ok, so now, I set the tablet to "USB Storage" and "Host"...Then I download and run Super One Click.

Ok, I run the "Super One Click v.2.3.3"; by clicking the root button and then all I get is a frozen screen that reads:

Killing ADB Server.... Kill Server 0.11s
Starting ADB Server.... StartServer 4.09s * daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037* *daemon started successfully*

And then it just freezes the program. So, now I'm completely stuck. I mean I learned a great deal, that I can hook up a keyboard, mouse, etc to this thing, but, obviously Super One Click was not designed for these generic tablets. I have read other articles which have suggested that the .inf driver for the default "Android USB Drivers" needs to be edited for your specific tablet model and you must enter the specific CODE# for it to recognize for rooting with Super One Click... But, god forbid, I haven't found any useful information on where that might be. Also, someone suggested to install the Android SDK and edit those files along with the .inf files to make this work. But, that didn't work either. I did everything right. I turned off USB debugging and then I would wait for super one click to come up with waiting for device...but that never happened. I even tried it with USB debugging on... still nothing.

Has anyone created a generic batch program to root these types of devices? What am I doing wrong here?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AOD_Corwin:
Since every tablet is different with different boot mangment. Makes it hard to make a generic root kit.. and being a frys computer salesman I try very hard to talk people out of those things unless. They swear they are only us8ing it for facebook

Rooting Idea USA Tablet

Well, this took me all night to read and learn about how to root this basic tablet from Fry's.

First off, I tried many different things and it just didn't work. Using super one click is definitely out of the question for this particular tablet.

I read all night and thankfully found the forum article on how to solve this issue on xdadevelopers own forum.

As per quoted quotes below:

Thank you so much Pablo11. The idea is to download the APK for GingerBreak from online onto your IDEA USA tablet directly. The trick here is that the brand name is IDEA "USA", but the real workings behind the "MID" is "ViMicro". You will notice that displayed as you turn on your tablet. So, in order to find real information about your MID device, you have to search articles for vimicro.

Once you run gingerbreak, your tablet will go completely nuts. Nothing will run right. Things will break and it will be a complete mess. It will however, install superuser apk. However, it will not work. You can download the Root Checker from the market and you will notice it is NOT rooted. So...thanks to pablo11, you will want to download supermanager from the google play market. Install it.

Next go into the supermanager settings and click on ROOT. Make sure root is enabled and checked marked in the settings. When you enable root in the settings, it will prompt you with "allow root?" Click on Yes. This will give you the access you need.

But, your not done, once again as per Pablo11, go to the super managers file manager section. Get to the root directory by clicking up, and then find the folder "bin". Look for the file "SU" and rename this to "old".

Now, you will be able install busybox and any thing else thats root.

By the way, restart your tablet again, and I "personally" recommend that you go into your settings> Privacy> Check mark both (Backup my data and Automatic Restore) and then click on Factory data reset. Start the tablet from like it was brand new. Don't worry it will keep the root that you did intact. You will just have to re-register the tablet with your existing gmail that you originally used with that tablet.

Lastly, use the root checker from the market and you will see that it is successfully rooted.

Okay... Now, my next step. To crack open this tablet and put in a bigger SD Card as the 2G SDCARD is way too small, especially if you want to use new roms and install a linux operating system onto it....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shermysherm:
@njbsuperman story telling of Pablo11's method worked for me. I have a generic android 2.2 7 in. "MID" white box, picture of the tablet on each side all of that and it worked for me. Had to restart and run ginger break a couple times but I followed the directions and it worked.

Thanks for posting this, got this for my 6 yr old for his b-day and of course I gotta ****in tim allen it and I happened to stumble across your findings and your post you put up 2 days before the unwrap. Thanks...smoke blunts.

Using Unlock Root to Root IDeaUSA Tablet

I know that this thread is a few months old, but I thought that I'd share what I used to root my 7" IDeaUSA YG A777 Android Tablet. I used Unlock Root. It's a simple program that rooted my tablet in minutes with one click. This site won't let me insert links in posts (I'm new to this site), but you can find the program by typing "Unlock Root" into Google. It should be the first site that comes up.

Rooting IdeaUSA CT-702

I have the CT-702 with Android 4.0.3 and can't get past the USB connecting to the storage devices. I can manipulate the files on the internal and external cards but any attempts to use the unlockroot package (from unlockroot.com which is full of adware) or other packages (z4root, ICS Root Unlocker 1.0) do not detect the device. There is a payware unlockroot package at unlockroot.org. Is this the package that works? Is there a no computer apk like gingerbreak (which fails) available or a procedure to get past the USB business.

[MENTION=5234242]captinmudslide[/MENTION],

I'm in the same boat as you, in fact we must have bought them about the same time. I'm hoping that you are following this thread, and that you found something that works to root this beast. I 've been digging and trying any and everything I can find that works on other android devices. I was hoping that holding the power button and vol+ or vol- would get me somewhere. Vol+ at least gives me the dead robot, but can't do anything with it. Was hoping that if the adb server was running it would connect. Nope.

Anybody monitoring this thread, feel free to offer something that hasn't already been covered previously.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fallen_Ace:
Holy crap, I rooted the device.

If anyone needs this later, here's what I did:

Fist I pulled down SRS Root, Unlock Root, Gingerbreak and the generic Google USB drivers.

I went into the properties of the missing driver CT1006 and checked the hardware ID. I opened android_winusb.inf and added the lines:

;ProScan plt-7035

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2207&PID_0010

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2207&PID_0010&REV_0222&MI_01

under the headings of [Google.NTx86] and [Google.NTamd64].

I ran Gingerbreak a few times, per a thread I read, but the app would hang. I tried it 3 times.

Then, I went back to Device Manager and selected "Update Driver" and pointed to the .inf I edited earlier. I detached and reattached the device via USB to my PC and ran SRS Root, which still reported an error. Then I ran Unlock Root and the first time it said my device was already rooted, but I told it to root again. It did and my device rooted. I then looked in my apps and found SuperSU installed and was able to run Sixaxis Controller, which requires root to run, which confirmed root worked.

I don't know which step actually solved the issue, but hopefully if anyone has this issue in the future, they can figure that part out.

the newest CM7 Nightly or whatever its called, also he Hellfire mod. Yes i re did the APN's numerous times but nothing is working.

I remember my data refusing to work once in a while on CM7. Rebooting the phone always fixed the problem. Try that first.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Tried a bunch of times. Looked it up and i guess has to do with the kernal?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iArtisan:
Maybe. I guess you should flash a different kernel - faux123 does wonders. I'm currently running the MIUI/faux combo and it works great.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Ok i've seen that kernel floating around. I just reinstalled CM7 Nightly and no changes, i did a hard reboot so the APN's would populate...but nothing is working. At least with WIFI i can install all the google apks and get the phone set up correctly. I CAN make phone calls without the wifi present, so at least there is that, haha.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
So can i get simple mobile to work on my phone with CM7? None of the fixes for the APN are working. I've tried multiple ROMS from different developers.

This one by Faux123, its the 2.3.4 AOSP or something like that, right? I tried to download, but the host website isn't responding.

Is there a way to download the STOCK 2.3.3 kernel for the G2X?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Alright, this is weird. I noticed after a hard reboot that the APN's populating are the T-mobile, and one called SIMPLE, the SIMPLE APN has the same MMS settings and all that stuff but has a proxy server attached, along with some other fields.

This one works, for right now anyway, last night it wasnt. The APN setup provided on the G2X section of Simple Mobile's website isnt working for me anymore for whatever reason.

I'm not too worried about it, i guess. everything seems to be working, i even switched to the T-mobile APN then back to SIMPLE just to test it out.

Either way, I need to get off Simple Mobile.

Hey guys been reading for a bit...Actually about 2 days now lol

Anyone else have a hard transistion over?

A few things im excited about is the wifi calling and possibly tehtering.

Right now Im tring to accomplish getting a different theme and removing the bloatware and might just wait for ICS to come out before I start playing with roms I feel like I got the phone a bad time because soon we will be transitioning over.

So right now,

Get a theme where I can access and change my music with out opening the to the home screen...

Wifi calling

And possibly tether but I think I need to install a custom rom and freeze the tether option.

Other than that just figure things out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ghghg1123:
Firstly, you cant remove bloatware, truely, without rooting your phone. However, you can hide certain apps with a themer/launcher.

Root free, the most iphone-like launcher is Espier launcher 5.x . Espier also has a safari like browser called Espier Browser. Both of these apps can be found in the market place and will fool you into thinking you have an iphone.

The best iphone like lock screen is the miui lockscreen on the market.

Yea I don't know if I want to go iphone style theme I was looking at some other threads even tried a few widgetlocker I couldnt figure this one out find some nice ones on this site just couldn't get them to look like that one mine.

The other was lockbot its was a bit cheesy.

I will have to look into launcher(s)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RetroSA:
The girlfriend and I both really like golauncher and golocker, but you'll have to play with them and figure out which works best for you.

Give it a bit of time and you'll really like the phone I think. It takes a bit to get used to finding things. The OS has a ton more depth to it so it can be a bit overwhelming at first, but once you get the lay off the land you'll be able to enjoy it a lot more.

Both my girlfriend and I had iPhones before Android and couldn't go back. Unless you're really itching for some new feature you can only use by rooting the phone I'd just take some time to familiarize yourself with the phone and it's menus. New roms add a lot of flexibility and new features, but the new options/moved menus may just add to the frustration for now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GBGamer:
I would personally suggest WidgetLocker, as you can put a music player widget(I'd suggest pure music widget 4x2), and DX Home as the homescreen. It's just iphone-like enough to look really nice, but it has android where it counts.

Best launchers are Go Launcher EX, ADW Launcher, or Launcher Pro in my opinion. If you want an iphone-like experience, MIUI is a good way to go but i dont think its quite ready for prime time for our phone though theres a MIUI Launcher standalone available, which has many of the same features from a UI standpoint.

As for lock screen controls, apps like Poweramp have lock screen controls for music. There are also lock replacements like Go Locker and Widget Locker that have customizable lock screens.
