Actually, I gotta correct you on that. I just plugged this tablet in (I bought 2 for my kids for birthdays earlier this month) to my cell charger, and it charges just fine. For that matter, it also charges from a USB port on my netbook.... or even from the micro USB port on my Xoom when a USB/microUSB adapter is used. I found that last bit to be a bit odd, but hey, it works lol

Power

If you had not already found out ... did you know that you could recharge using only the USB port!

I have tried following the instructions from your posting and I am lost... and I have rooted other Android devices on an older 32bit Vista computer but ABD could not find my device on my current 64bit Windows 7 system.

[General Questions and Answers] DVD2955:
Yea! :D

FYI.. After spending most of Thanksgiving on this project... I finally got my device Root'ed ...and a 'Gapps Package' pushed onto my device.

I used the universal package for 4.0.x from http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps

:D
[General Questions and Answers] KaoticEvil:
His did you get root? From what I could tell of the links above, they are only for installing gapps... which I managed to get pushed and installed to one of these that I bought...

I was planning on creating a whole HOW TO but got sick Friday PM and have not been near a computer till just now.. as soon as I get "BACK ON MY FEET" I will try writing something up.

:David

Update: The following is for your information I can not be held liable if you "Brick" your tablet as this worked for me, but try at your own risk!!

Read this page: Universal Root

Use this utility: Root_with_Restore

Then download the GAPPS from the above link and extract and find the folder "SYSTEM"

Open a dos command prompt window.

Now connect your tablet via USB and be sure that you have it set for USB DEBUGGING in the system / development

DO NOT TURN IN USB STORAGE.

Go to the folder where you extracted the download "Root_with_Restore" go to the folder 'STUFF' and from the command box type " adb device " you should see your tablet connected.

Run the "BAT" file from "Root_with_Restore" [I do not remember for sure but I know that "Other" did not work so I choose the option above it.]

Then find where you extracted the GAPPS system folder and type: adb push <if needed type in the full drive+folder listing>system /system : now wait.. you should see allot of screen messages. till you get a message saying complete.

Unplug the USB cable and turn off your tablet.

Turn on your tablet... this may take longer than in the past.. but you should have a working "GOOGLE PLAY STORE" once your system comes up.

Please post back if this works for you or if I need to try to expand the instructions.

I am sure that some real DOS/Android programmer could make a single .ZIP and .BAT file to take care of everything more cleanly.

Getting more on system storage.

It seems that the VIDEO and MUSIC player that comes with the device will search your external SD card for music and videos that you may load, so move these two folders to the external card... when I did that it freed up more than half my my systems storage space.

:good:
[General Questions and Answers] DVD2955:
HELLO.. HELLo. HELlo HEllo Hello hello .....

Kind of a dead silence here..

But here is a few question(s) for you all...

What is the browser that is install from factory.. as it is not "Chrome" [It almost looks like Dolphin], when I tried to do a regular .apk install of "Chrome" from the Google store it dies which almost tells me that it need to be pushed into the device.

Does anybody know of a "Photo Frame" (a random photo displaying) program which will search and read a photo directory from the external SD card? Most I have tried seem to only read from the photo DCIM folder and I would like to move these off the devices built in memory.

[General Questions and Answers] kildennyn:
Drivers?

When you guys did this, did you need device drivers for the tablet? If so, where'd you find them? I've completely failed....
[General Questions and Answers] DVD2955:
What version of Windows are you running?

Vista or newer should not need drivers?

Do you see the tablet as a USB storage device when you plug it in your computer?

Do you have your tablet turned on?

You did have USB storage turned off and DeBugging turned on?

Im running 64bit win7 and it loaded a bunch of drivers but did not load the "android" driver for

the tablet and Im guessing thats the one the other poster is talking about.

Any help would be excellent

EDIT: I fixed it I had to update the adroid sdk than went to device manager and updated the

"android" driver pointing it to my c: drive after that everything went great.

Hey guys,

I just bought the new GT-7240 - a really good tab just like the Genesis GT-7220S in therms of hardware but with a better GPU (A10 cortex), and display resolution (something like 1024x600). The problem is I'm really afraid of bricking it, and don't know if the procedures used to other models would work for this one. Could anyone encourage me? hahahaha

Does this procedure listed above works in my little 7ínch droid?

Thankkssssss

---------- Post added at 01:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 PM ----------

This is very very strange, since I've got a Genesis (new model: GT-7240), and it comes with full access of Google Play (and NO restrictions on some apps like usually happens with Chinese tabs). Actually, the Genesis brand is very good, they are from Korea and have some factories in PY. The community of Genesis users is growing fast in Brazil owing to the low prices and the proximity of Paraguai (what makes us able to go for it without paying high custom taxes), and we have a forum specialized in it. For those who would like to visit the forum and count with 'Google Tradutor' help, just google "Forum Genesis Series"

[General Questions and Answers] PrO...:
When I type adb device in the command prompt it says it is not recognised as an internal or external command... What am I doing wrong?
[General Questions and Answers] maminx:
Problem solved Rooting and Google Framework (google play, gmail, google maps, sync, etc., etc.)

1) Connect the tablet with a USB cable and let the driver installation fail.

2) Open the Windows device manager and look up the device ID for the tablet.

a. In the device manager, my tablet showed up as Android Tablet or Android Phone

b. Right-click on it and open the Properties window.

c. In the Details tab of the Properties window, change the Property to “Hardware Ids”.

d. Make a note of these Ids for later (I only needed one of them, see the code I added below).

3) Eject the tablet (safely remove the hardware).

4) Download and install the Android SDK

5) I installed SDK tools (required), Android 4.0.3 API 15 (for my tablet), and the Google USB Driver (in the extras section). You can see what version of ICS is running in the tablet by looking in the tablet settings.

6) Once all of the packages are installed, navigate to the file android_winusb.

a. My android_winusb file was located in the following folder: /my_user_account/Local/Android/android-sdk/extras/google/usb_driver

At this point you have to manually add an entry to the android_winusb file for the eGlide XL PRO 2 using the device ID found in step 2. (There are two sections in the android_winusb file, one for 32-bit Windows ([Google.NTx86]) and one for 64-bit Windows ([Google.NTamd64]). Since I am running 32-bit XP, I only added an entry for my tablet to the 32-bit section.)

7) Open android_winusb in a text editor and add an entry in the section relevant to your system using the following syntax (insert your device id where indicated):

;eGlide Steal

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, YOUR_DEVICE_ID_HERE

For my tablet, I added the following entry to the file:

;eGlide Steal

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0003&REV_0230&MI_01

Two device ID numbers were given in the properties window of the device manager. I used the longer one.

8) Save the changes and close the file.

9) When I connected my tablet with a USB cable again, Windows managed to find the driver automatically, but you might have to let the driver installation fail again so that you can point Windows to the location of the driver manually (see step 6a for the location).

10) Search for the app RootBurner_v0.2 (that is the one I used for the serveral ematic tablest (pros, and no pro, blue one and pink one) and follow the simple steps indicated on the app.

11) The app will run, it may say that your tablet where not rooted (on pro version), but don't worry it will be rooted.

12) Download the gapps from rootzwiki page, depending on your android version.

a. Unzip your gapps in your pc, and create a new .tar file with only "system" folder, I created a file "system.tar"

b. Push your "system.tar" with adb into your tablet.

c. Type: su [hit enter]

d. Type: busybox mount -o rw,remount /system

e. untar your system.tar and overwrite your current /system (Do not delte your current /system, overwrite it!!!)

12) Reboot your tablet and enjoy!!!

there is something called universal root tool. not sure, never used it. but if I needed to root my device, i'd be all over inet to find the way to do it.

now I wanna know how to push CWM or TWRP to my tablets. This is the only thing missed. I do wanna nandroid backup.

otherwise, they are stellar. video is smooth, sound is great, book reader is excellent. for the price I paid /$30 for each/, can't beat this.

First of all thank you for the great guide and help on getting this tablet rooted and gapps loaded.

Going on a couple hours of trying to get gapps on this thing. I do have it rooted and have gotten adb able to recognize my device. But when I go to push the \system folder to /system. It is telling my there is no space left on the device which is not true.

I pushed the whole gapps-ics-20120429-signed folder to the ematic and haven't gotten the no space left on device error, only when trying to transfer just the system folder. I have also tried moving just this folder to other locations on my computer and still no luck.

I have rooted many devices and this was has been more frustrated then other other device I have worked with please help!

Other root option

I got a eMatic egs004 for my two youngest. Tablets came with 4.1.1 installed, used the driver that was posted earlier with the editing of the inf file to match the tablet so ADB would work. Used motochoper to root and install SU. Worked both time first time with no issues at all.

Tried the other root methods with no success, so as a other option used motochoper and it worked with out any problems at all in under 4 minutes.

But this is with my experiance with these tablets. I like motochoper used it to root my D4, TF700T, both of the Razr M we got and these two tablets.
[General Questions and Answers] Crazy1m:
partial success

:confused::confused:

:confused:

Ematic EGM003BL

Root worked I think but don't know how to tell.

But failed to copy Gapps with the following:

From my folder where ADB is located I run this command in the CMD window:

adb push C:\gapps\system /system

it returns this:

Push: c:\gapps\system/addon.d/70-gapps.sh -> /system/addon.d/70-gapps.sh

failed to copy 'c:\gapps\system/addon.d/70-gapps.sh -> /system/addon.d/70-gapps.sh' : Read only file system.

Need clarification whether mounting the sysem folder and setting permissions to rw will correct the failure. I am not the expert and have only rooted and modded Coby Kyros, Craig and Pandigital tablets.

went to shell

(directory where unzipped desired root program) type 'adb shell'

type 'su'

type busybox mount -o rw, remount /system

turned tablet off and back on

Will take longer to boot back up

Perform your setup and tested.

Have all the google apps and they don't crash now. For the specs it works good and my wife is happy.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeanclaudevandamme:
When I had Gingerbread 2.3.3 I used Droidwall to block any apps that had adverts inside it.

Now in Jelly Bean blocking an app still doesn't stop adverts showing inside of it. I know it's something to do with some program being able to access the internet because in Flight Mode there is no adverts.

How can you beat Jelly Bean and block the program that is detecting whether your device has internet connection or not? (It's not market feedback agent / play store, tried those already)

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] komugi:
I use AdAway

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.adaway&hl=en

This blocks via host files, and generally any ads within any Apps as well, since it's a system-wide block. Some ad-based referral links may be interfered though.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeanclaudevandamme:
I tried something interesting. I set Droidwall to block ALL APPS, and the ads still show inside of apps lol. So I guess Jelly Bean has a different way of doing things, making it harder to block adverts.

Hmm I've downloaded Adfree, gets rid of some adverts in certain apps but not all. Might try AdAway in conjunction.
