I had the permission denied problem also, but what I found is that you have to copy the file from your SD card to the system\bin directory. The OS security will not allow you to move the file. Make sure you then chmod it so that you can execute it.

Search Youtube for "MID7015 Step by Step". I used it with the addition of the cp \sdcard\flash_image \system\bin\flash_image and chmod 777 \system\bin\flash_image commands, it worked perfectly.

I enter su (Coby Kyros MID7015 Utimate Guide)

Hi,

I like to thank Jason Andreas for all the work, it took to post (Coby Kyros MID7015 Ultimate Guide - Rooting, Android Market)

I'm using Android SDK updater Revision 10, Windows 7, Kyros MID7015 Android 2.1 (v1.6a).

In this version (Android SDK updater Revision 10) adb shell is in the platform-tools

directory it loads well, but after I enter su and press enter this is what comes up ('su' is not recognized as su internal or external command, operable program or batch file)

I do not want to continue since I’m not familiar with Android.

I will need some help.

Thank you

Eddie

Trying to get the USB driver to work makes this whole process not worth the trouble.

Where is "WdfCoInstaller01007.dll". It is probably the 3rd file so far that I had to force into my system, or try to find on the internet.

Also, would have been nice to know that rooting in Windows-7 is not possible.

Thanks for the post, but nothing seems to work unless there is some sort of update.

I now have to figure out how to undo the stuff I did, like Undo "Permanent Root". Any help is appreciated.

There is a thead in Android Tablets . net, they explain what to do about the flash_image issue, it is very easy to fix, just too new here to be able to post the link, pm me and I will send you the link. I fought adb so much trying to force the flash, but in the end the latest update 01/26/2011 update from Coby removed the flash_image file from the system/bin on the root folder, get it there and you're golden

I am rooted, and running Watery Kyros 1.2b, only issue is I have to terminal in to get Clockwork recovery mode as rom manager will not flash it due to I have no idea what device tell it I am using as Coby is not listed....

install z4Root, the root and unroot....but why would you want to????

It is worth the effort to learn the rooting and modding of Android, I am very proficient with phones, but tablets are a little trickier, not as much "know how " out there...

good luck,

Cheers
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rhemis:
Well, I just don't want to brick the thing.

The more I look into this "rooting", the more I am finding out that the software and techniques are obselete. Like the "adb shell" portion at the command prompt, is no longer working even in the new folder.

Maybe tomorrow I'll spend another 4 hours down the drain. I really would like to have more apps.

What a waste of an android pad (and all of its technology) if the only thing you can do is a bunch of lame apps, most of which are copies of each other by homebrew programmers.

I want some kick-ass apps, like the Google Sky map of the stars. Maybe even get my wireless printer to work too.

Coby is coming out with MID7024-4GB Tablet with android 2.2 , integrated front Cam 0.3 and A8 Cortex CPU 1Ghz , will this rooting process be the same??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rhemis:
I got the USB driver installed, but I have the following new drives in Windows File Manager:

Removable Disk (F:)

Removable Disk (G:)

Then when I click on one of those "USB" drives (F: or G:), and I get the following error:

"Please insert a disk into drive F:"

or

"Please insert a disk into drive G:"

I assume that either F and G is most likely my SD card and the tablet memory.

Is this normal, or should there be some DATA or files seen? I know I have files on my SD card.

Can't Load Driver

I've followed these instructions. However, the android developers kit is now a new version (not 7) and there is no usb_driver folder in the root of the installed sdk. I did find a folder by this name under .\extras\google. However, when I attempt to load the inf file (which I downloaded from your instructions), Windows will not load it properly. It says that it can't find a file.

Does anyone know how to overcome this? I've seen a couple of people throughout this thread complain about this problem. Both of them later claimed they had solved it, yet neither gave any information on *how* they solved it.

I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate.

If anyone has any info, I'd be very grateful!

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jeffdod:
Got It

Never mind...I figured it out.

I had to deviate from the instructions as follows:

a) adp.exe was in platform-tools folder

b) had to look carefully over .inf driver file and change file names to match .dll file names that came with my particular distribution version of the android sdk

c) had to locate the flash_image program separately (i.e. by doing google searches) as it was not to be found on my kyros device

I've never used any type of Android device before, so this was all new to me. However, I did get through it, and my device is working fine. I've been able to install the nook reader, access my nook library, and get set up with Kindle as well.

Thanks for all the instructions and information on this site. It was very helpful.

newbie question

I did the rooting process to my kyros. but i have a few questions of it. When i enter the market in the main page says "No matching content in Android Market." and no image below market is displayed (but i saw a few pics on the web where the images are displayed) I can still search & download apps normally. The original facebook placed in the (gapps-passion-EPE54B-signed) i can see the pics of profiles and albums but my profile doesn´t download. I dowloaded the facebook update but the pics of album and profiles are not displayed and i can see my profile.

Android Market

Dear Friends,

I might be asking a silly question but considering that I've already looked for answers on the internet and found nothing, I believe it's worth asking.

I've followed all the steps to root, instal clockwork mod recovery and the android market (gapps) using the terminal emulator (other tutorial). Everything went just fine. I have youtube, facebook, gmail, and everything else working great.

The installed Android Market has been automatically updated to the newer version (great!) but it wont download the apps I've choosen. The apps apears on "My Apps"as "downloading" and remains "downloading" forever.

I first thought I did something wrong, so I did a FULL factory restore and started all over again and, it still wont work.

So I thought my wi-fi settings could be blocking the market server access, but it does not. Apps Lib works just fine. And the Market has updated itself. So, I need help. Any idea? Solutions? Tips?

Thanks in advance.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yznhmr:
ok i figured it out.. it was the matter of which USB I mounted..

So how do i return it to unrooted and factory defaults to return..

well i know how to UNroot with z4m but how to i return it to factory defaults?

I see there is a newer one 7024 for $20 more with 2x the ram, and 1ghz processor.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hmbiohazard:
you need the terminal emulator

make sure to type su (space) then hit enter to go into super user mode

some side notes.

1. rooted my colby 7015, no problems, got google app market on no issues.

2. fixed the waking issue using all above mentioned fixes, works fine. had to get new keyboard. easy to do.

3. dont know if anyone else was having force close issues. i got the clockwork ROM manager..used the fix permissions utility and havent had an issue yet, this also fixed the white bars and images in angry birds for me WOOHOO....

Just wondering, does this custom rom work with the Coby Kyros MID8024? Because it seems useless for me to have Coby's stock rom, it doesn't do anything at all, worse, it doesn't have an Android Market. x(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lhcmacedo:
So, it seems that Coby has updated the firmware so this method no longer works.

After trying, I managed to install the gapps this way:

first of all, using a file manager from appslib install another file manager that has Super User access. This is the only free one I could find: Super Manager. Since I cannot post links, look for the apk file in the deltagsm or inovasi-mobiles site.

Using that, you should take the flash_image file and put in the system/bin folder on the root of the kyros. Download the flash_image from this youtube video: watch?v=clGKXHjY548. The download link for the flash_image is in the description

Also, after the update of the SDK tools, the adb stuff is no longer in the "Tools" folder, but in the "Platform-tools".

Thanks for the tuto and I hope I've helped you!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bullet358:
Okay, so I was having problems installing the drivers. It would come up ADB Sooner Composite Interface or something of that nature. I started looking through computer files and found Program Files (x86). In it i found another copy of the usb driver file under another file name (probably from my futile attempts as a noob downloading multiple copies of programs to find the right location for execution). I had not copied the necessary code into this android usb file. I deleted it and copied over the current files/program I had been using to that same location in Program Files (x86). Is this where my error was? I have yet to try it as it's still copying over. :confused:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] N00b-un-2:
To be completely honest, no. out of the box Coby tablets are crap. After you root, install clockwork mod, upgrade to Gingerbread, tweak your performance, remove the useless phone apks, and install a gapps pack for market access, then and ONLY then does the tablet become awesome.

No, try the method for 7024 I used this guide from this website http://www.lazytrap.com/?p=414. I had to run it twice because it failed the first time but I choose general device and it rooted my mid 8024 the second try. Becareful there is no recovery for this device so save your apps before deleting.

There is some type of system restore, but if you try to install clockwork mode following the instruction posted in most of the forums you will overwrite that with the wrong image for your device.

How long is the post backup reboot supposed to take?

I fear I may have bricked my 7015. I was following the rooting, clockqorkmod, and google market instructions and everything was going well until it came to rebooting after the clockwork backup. Everything appeared as expected and I selected the reboot option.

Now nothing. It's plugged in and it won't reboot. There was no indication on how long the reboot would take, but it's been over a half hour and I can't get any sign of life from it.

Any advice on how to get it back, or do I have a shiny new paperweight?

TIA!
