Just bought ZEKI 7 inch dual core TBD753B witH jelly bean 4.1.1

$ 129.99 at Sears and Best Buy

Jelly Bean 4.1.1

Storage Capacity : 8GB

Be careful The Jelly Bean firmware has tons of bugs

especially not waking up after sleep / power off.

You need to hit reset button most of the time.

Its not rooted and cant be rooted through the ICS/JB Universal rooting available here at XDA.

I have exchanged it twice and it still has the same problems

After first set up it comes up with "update available" message.

The update is to repair the Update server connection and youtube.

However after update The connection to update server keep failing.

Been through so many factory reset through recovery (Vol - and Power) and the settings with Tech Support and nothing help with the problems.*

Tablet also has screen sensitivity issue

Landscape Top Left corner

Portrait Top Right corner

Until they provide fix do not buy.

Zeki Android 4.0.3 Tablet TB782B is much better than the TBD753B Jelly Bean brother.

UPDATE

For anyone who look for root

attach below

update.zip from Zeki tech support (also work for trio jelly bean tablet)

and Vending (google play store for jelly bean)

It is for Zeki TBD753B and TBDB763B (bluetooth version)

Build no 4.1.1 20121204

Root

Copy the update zip into sd card

Insert the card into the tablet.

Hold vol - and press power button to go to recovery.

Release the vol- button once you enter recovery

navigate with vol button , and power to select

select apply update from ext

Select the update zip you copy earlier

once its done reboot

Google Play Store

AUTOMATIC way without root (wont survive factory reset)

The tablet is google ready you can install Google play store without root by simply tapping the vending apk.

MANUAL WAY to install google play with root (this will survive factory reset)

use file explorer/manager ie.. ES file explorer, Root explorer etc

You can use any file manager that you want and

ITS A BASIC ANDROID KNOWLEDGE you need to mount the system folder into writable before copying or change permission.

copy the vending apk into system/app and change permission into RW R R

and important REBOOT.

UPDATE 2

Due too many emails

let me try to explain as basic as possible

ZEKI tablet already has Google Services Framework installed you dont need to re-install it again.

If you install Google Play store by flashing Gapps zip make sure it doesnt include Google Services Framework APK on the zip files.

Otherwise you will encounter too many FC later on. Dont ask me about GApps.zip since i dont use those methods.

In order for you to access, copy or modify into/on system folder

you need to enable or mount the system folder as writable and your phone/tablet need to be rooted

You can use any file manager apps you want

ie.. ES File Explorer, Root Explorer, Astro File Manager or etc

Below is example for ES file explorer

Tap options

tap settings

Scroll down and select Root Settings

Put a Check mark for Root explorer and mount file system

You have to figure out with the file manager apps you use how to mount the File System as writtable

I dont know every single apps there

Try to GOOGLE it.
