TABEO E2: ROOT/INSTALL PLAY STORE

MUST BEFORE STARTING!!!

-I take no responsibility for the damages that may or could occur from following this guide. I posted this guide because it worked for two different Tabeo e2 devices that I currently own. I am not iffiliated with any of the softwares or apps you will use, nor do I take full credit for these instructions. A lot of trial and error from multiple users.

-Must have the File Explorer app that is included in the pre-installed apps on this device. If not, you may need to master reset the device and add them again. You can also add another profile to the device to have the apps installed all over again.

-Anytime you see a pop up asking for ROOT access for any of the apps that we run in this tutorial, select yes!

-Parental controls don't seem to work well with the Play Store. Recommend uninstalling it once your done with the tutorial using Titanium Backup from the Play Store. If you can't get to the play store because of the parental controls, force stop, wipe cache/data on the parental controls app and then access the play store again.

UPDATE: My computer crashed and I lost all of the files. Since there is very little to no support for this device I am not going to take the time to go find them again. Its not too hard to do some google searches

Step 1: Install Drivers

Go to PdaNet site: http://pdanet.co/a/

Download Version 4.12 installer (Windows 8/7/Vista/XP (both 32/64bit Users). Alternate instructions for MAC users.

Install PdaNet

Once finished run PDANet

On the device enable Developer Options

Slide down status bar>settings>about tablet>keep tapping on the build number at the bottom (fast) until developer options is enabled

Press the back arrow, developer options should be listed right above the About Tablet option. If not, reboot device and see if its there.

Once enabled, in developer options, enable Debugging.

Connect the device to the computer via USB cord

Follow the instructions on PdaNet.

Once completed, close the program and then Exit completely out of PdaNet. PdaNet should not be running at all before continuing.

Step 2: Import Files to Device

Download the zip file and place on your desktop

Unzip using 7zip or other programs. 7zip is free online and works great: 7zip: http://www.7-zip.org/download.html

This can be done by selecting the zip file, right click it and select Unzip Here.

Now open My Computer, and open the Tabeo which is now listed under Devices because you installed the drivers using PdaNet.

If you don't see your device, go back to Step 1 and start over.

Now, copy and paste the Tabeo Setup folder to the internal memory of the device.

Now, cut and paste the G.zip file from the Tabeo Setup Folder and move it a directory up in the internal memory. So you should see the Tabeo Setup folder next

Step 3: Root Device:

Run the Android_Root exe file inside the Tabeo Setup folder that is on your PC desktop. (AKA Kingoapp Software: http://www.kingoapp.com/)

Once it scans your device, press the ROOT DEVICE button.

The device should reboot when its done.

Congrats, you are rooted!

Step 4: Install Apps

Find and launch the file explorer app that was included with the pre-installed apps on this device.

Select Internal Memory > TABEO SETUP Folder

Select and Install:

-Busybox

Run Busybox > Press the Install.

Once done, swipe all he way to he far left screen "Applet Manager".

Press Install

Exit and reboot device.

Launch the File Explorer app.

Select and Install:

-FlashGordon

Flash Gordon Site: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2250555

Open Flash Gordon

Select "Browse for File"

Find and select the G.zip app you moved to the first directory of your internal memory.

The G.zip file is Googles Gapps 4.2.2 flashable zip, I changed the name because this app has issues with long zip file names.

Once you selected it, expect to wait awhile while the app unzips the file.

(If it flashed the Unzip message really fast or gave you a invalid error message, that means it didn't unzip right. Recommend reboot the device, and go through the Busybox process again.)

If Flash Gordon does in fact take awhile to unzip, select the checkboxes:

-Cache

-Dalvik

-Uncheck the SafeFlash

Press FLASH.

You will have to wait awhile, grab a drink! ;)

Once done, reboot the device.

Once the device reboots you will be prompted to go through the Google Gapps setup process like any other device. Setup your Gmail account and enjoy the Play Store!
