^- just replied to your post on FreakTab and see I got it wrong...

The tablet will still enter bootloader mode, so you may be doing it wrong. What you want to do is plug it in to the USB and hold Vol Down + Power for 15 seconds until the screen goes black and you will see the flash mode device connected to your PC.

For everyones info I had some luck with cyanogenmod on this device but nothing releasable. I had to get going with uni work though unfortunately!

If anyone would like me to do a write-up on my progress and instructions or such then I can do that.

The problem is that no matter what I do it just wont go into bootloader. The Rk tool just doesn't find the device, If I cant find a cement recovery backup for this device I might need to buy another one and take a backup of that. If you can help me save 100 pounds I had be more than happy. I am not joking, I actually am going to have to place another order.
[Gen9 Android Development] Gavin01:
I already replied to your pm..... Tell me what I need to do to help
[Gen9 Android Development] CookieMaker:
I have just replied to your message, thanks a lot.
[Gen9 Android Development] etoD:
Remember to use the rktool you need to modify the code and be running linux. And you may need to add the device to your udev rules.
[Gen9 Android Development] CookieMaker:
The tablet boots straight into clockwork recovery, there is no way I can get into bootloader, therefore rktool would never recognise/find the device.
[Gen9 Android Development] jobibear:
Hi, onekeeps saying of those days. Screen keeps going discoloured so i am going to try banging a custom rom on. However win7 keeps saying "Windows could not find driver software for your device", this despite me selecting it after the requisite downloadinging and extracting. Any suggestions please. Regards.

Hi, I'm having a bit of trouble rooting my Cobalt (Win7 Starter)

I run runme.bat and it sticks at "daemon started successfully"

I don't know whether I've installed the drivers properly. USB debugging is definitely enabled but when I plug it in to the USB port, it installs a few drivers automatically via Windows Update but I don't get any drivers for "ARCHOS" (yellow exclamation in device manager) and when I try to update the driver and navigate to the driver folder in archos_80_cobalt_root... nothing

I know I'm being super-retarded here but can somebody please help me out?
[Gen9 Android Development] daaabs:
Okay, I know how annoying it is when you google something like this and all you find is questions, so here's how I fixed it.

I found this post on archosfans, by bluesmanuk:

http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=99&t=67881

+++START QUOTE (in case it gets moved or deleted)+++

Whilst trying to diagnose the problem I looked at the android_winusb.inf file and under the [Google.NTx86] section there were the following lines:

;Archos 80 Cobalt

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0E79&PID_14A7

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0E79&PID_14A7&MI_01

Looking at the hardware details on his machine, it stated that is was VID_0E79&PID_14A5 the only difference being that there was a 5 at the end of the string instead of 7.

+++END QUOTE+++

Anyway, I just changed the last 7 to a 5 in each of the strings (4 instances in total - 2 for x86 and 2 for x64). I've been tearing my hair out over this and I would have never thought to edit the inf file. Many, many thanks to bluesmanuk (if he ever reads this)
[Gen9 Android Development] daaabs:
I'm a bit embarrassed to keep bumping this thread but I'm just checking for signs of life.

Also, I was wondering - I've figured out how to get to the recovery menu (recorded here for posterity):

(1) unplug everything

(2) power off

(3) hold power and vol(-) simultaneously

(4) let go of the power button at the boot screen (or it will turn off again) but keep holding vol(-) for 10-15 secs until the dead android appears

(5) press (not hold) power and vol(+) at almost the same time (press power a fraction of a second before vol(+))

I get the following options (navigable using vol(+) and vol(-), selectable using the power button):

reboot system now (self-explanatory)

apply update from external storage (I think this just means the external SD card and not anything connected viia a USB OTG cable)

wipe data/factory reset (doesn't actually wipe the /sdcard folder (pictures, downloads, etc) but does delete all your apps and settings)

wipe cache partition

apply update from cache

recovery system from backup

update rkimage from /sdcard (not the actual SD card, just the /sdcard folder of the internal memory, confusingly)

Anyway, I was wondering, is there any way to make a recovery image in case the Cobalt gets bricked again? One that I could just keep on the SD card in case of emergency?

I made a romdump of of my other Cobalt (I bought 2, luckily) and put it in a file called update.zip and then changed the extension to create update.img (I know it sounds stupid but I saw it on another forum for a similar tablet with the same processor and recovery menu) and put it in the root of an android-formatted SD card, inserted the SD card and tried option 2 (apply update from external storage). It let me navigate the folders of the SD card but it couldn't see update.img :(

I tried it with the files provided by the OP as well, but that didn't work either

But I think it would be really great to have a recovery image actually on the tablet itself (or the SD card) in case it bricks again and I'm away from a computer. I'm a total lummox when it comes to stuff like this so any help would be massively appreciated
[Gen9 Android Development] globula_neagra:
Your only way to unbrick it without using a pc, is to always keep the firmware on the internal storage. :)

Also the last firmware published by Archos, rooted and with some Market fixes (to see more apps) is available here

http://www.arctablet.com/blog/downl...lements/kasty-cobalt80-40-20130202-rooted.zip

It must be flashed with Rockchip Batch Tools

http://www.arctablet.com/blog/featured/flashing-arnova-g2-rockchip-2918-rockchip-flashing-tool/ using the restore option, not something else.
[Gen9 Android Development] :
Thanks for this, went as expected, no issues, pretty much worked the same for my other RK3066 device as well :)
[Gen9 Android Development] CookieMaker:
Guys, if any of you run into any issue and would like to restore your tablet then please use this backup which was provided by 900supersport:

[Gen9 Android Development] scoobyjenkins:
Thanks man, worked a treat! I was also trying to install CWM and like you, I plugged the usb in while device powered off, then held power and vol down, when my computer made the sound for device disconnected, I let go of power and continued to hold vol down for 10 seconds and was able to install the drivers for unknown device.
[Gen9 Android Development] adam7862:
Hi i bought the archos 80 and it had the supersport rom installed. I wanted to go back to stock so i followed the guide to go back to the stock from XDA. Problem now is the internal memory is not recognised. if i go into explorer and click internal memory it says it has been removed. Also in the norification area is says sd card is damaged and may need formatting.

Ive tried factory reset but it doesnt work. When i plug it into the computer i am unable to format or view anything in the internal storage. Any help please?

Thanks

Needed pl2303.ko for 80 cobalt for BU353 USB GPS

Hi there

[MENTION=222150]gavroche[/MENTION]

[MENTION=4726739]900supersport[/MENTION]

Very nice effert and tahnk you for rooting tut and ROMs.

I wondered if any of you could please build a pl2303.ko module for this tablet when you get soe free time.

I would like to use the USB GPS BU-353.

I have tried a few made for other tablets however they are not working. e.g

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15124810&postcount=22

and

http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/13293-pl2303-and-other-usb-to-serial-modules/ (pl2303.ko attached)

I have already installed TomTom on it just lacking the GPS now ;)

Help! – I’ve bricked my archos whilst trying to root it

I’m trying to recover using the guide in the first post but can’t get it to work.

Whilst holding down volume-down (and the power button as recommend in another post here) I plug the tablet into the usb cable. Under Device Manager under “Class for rockusb devices”, “RK30 Device” appears.

If I try to update the driver by searching for the folder (\cobalt_recovery\drivers\x64\win7) it says the device driver is already up to date.

If I try to update the driver by searching for the correct file (rockusb.inf) then I get the following errors:

“windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it”

“RK30 Device”

“The device cannot start. (Code 10).”

If I then run RKAndroidtool.exe and without checking or unchecking any options (all checked except cache and userdata), I click Flash ROM. The software writes and checks everything and “Run OK” appears. The archos reboots and the “Archos Entertainment” flash screen appears and then disappears and nothing else happens. (Should I unplug the USB cable at some point? I’ve tried after it reboots and doesn’t seem to help). If doesn’t automatically boot to the welcome wizard

In the device manager it now appears as “Other devices – ARCHOS” with a yellow exclamation mark.

Any help will be much appreciated!

I’m using windows 7 64 bit

Cheers, T
[Gen9 Android Development] tomaquet:
Just thought I'd reply to my own problem as the solution I found was to Erase NAND (using RKAndroidTool) before flashing. This wasnt mentioned in the guide on the first page.

I still cant root the tab though....

usb otg diasbled after root?

I'm not really sure if this is the correct place to post this but here I go anyway:

I currently have my Cobalt 80 set up as follows:

Rooted with 900supersport rom (February version).

Changed app space to 6gb.

Swapped internal sd for external sd (vold.fstab)

I’ve recently tried to use a usb memory stick using a USB OTG cable and it’s not recognised. I know the cable works because before implementing the above changes (ie on stock rom, non-rooted) I could use it with a PS3 controller on various games. I’ve tried various apps in the playstore to help mount various usb sticks (and the ps3 controller) but nothing recognises it.

Has something I’ve done disabled the OTG function of the table? How can I check? (it might just be the OTG cable has stopped working).

Cheers, T
[Gen9 Android Development] audinswfc:
Can anyone please tell me why I'm getting this error when trying to follow the root instructions please?

I'm using Windows 8.1 64 bit

I'm doing this with USB debugging enabled and the device switched on as this is the only way I can get the 'ARCHOS' device to show in Device Manager under 'Other Devices.

If I put the tablet in to download mode (power + vol down) I get a dead Android symbol with red exclamation, is this normal? However when I insert USB cable in to the device at this point my computer doesn't bring up the 'ARCHOS' device in Device Manager, all I get then is this:

What am I doing wrong? Trying to root the tablet so I can put CM10.1 on it

I flashed back to stock rom using the recovery in first post but device still appears to be rooted due to super user icon being there after factory reset. How can I unroot it please?
