does the unofficial CM 7 port work with M701 ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cristiano.orlando:
there is thread or other topic here that tells the way to fix the touchscreen (forgot, but i think its in the steps on this topic)

but usb debugging must be enabled

but as a workaround to turn on usb debugging

use an usb mouse in the tablet and its gonna work to unlock the screen and to to settings :cool:

and other thing, here i am using now 2.3 rom, and accelerometer is crazy as hell, is there a fix to that, or a way to make it softer.... i was playing asphalt and when i turned left or right the car moves too fast, because the accelerometer is crazy fast ehehehe

tks

Okay I am folowing your steps and I can't pull /data/softmac softmac. when i try to run the code it says "failed to pull /data/doftmac softmac: permission denied.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] eufouria:
Maybe try "su"?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] magnetboard:
I have. I actually got all the files but all of the touches on the screen go to the bottom. Any ideas to how to calibration?

i need a firmware for em71, can anyone upload for me thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stoned99:
That's what I did a week or 2 ago but wanted to find another procedure for other people so they don't need to restore their nandroid... oh well, let's not waste any other time on that. Thanks for the info.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
completely agree to avoid current procedure :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zone23:
So I've done some searching and can't seem to find what I'm looking for but is the stock ROM for this thing available somewhere? Can I just use the posted update.zip and just mod it? I want to make a ROM for this but can't find a good base to use. I'm not smart enough to make one from scratch.

Also I can't help but wonder if the CPU would be overclockable with a decent kernel.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
Yes, use update.zip as your stock ROM-- it is from the manufacturer, with a couple fixes. So far we have only managed to overclock this by 0% ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] qhtip:
Wonder if any of you gurus can help. I flashed the kyros with telechips_HSG-X5A_froyo_cm6_beta.zip, since the kyros specs are almost identical with X5A. I think I bricked my kyros for good. I can not get back to recovery mode with power/back button method. I can not access it with adb since it is not an eclair any more. If I reset, holding down home button, it will be staying at the fist screen with COBY and product in top left conner. Computer with recognize an USB device but has no driver and I can not access to it.

Any thought, idea to get restore the recovery process

Thanks

Qhtip
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kill-9:
so I got a problem too.

It seems that when formatting and all that I now can't restore ANYTHING. The message I get when formatting /data for example is :

E: Can't mount /dev/block/mtdblock5
(File exists)
Error mounting DATA:!

This started when I was installing cyanogen. I got lots of experience with ADB but apparently I ****ed something up.

So now, when I flash a recovery (anyone that I have, including my nandroid backups and this cyanogen one here) I get something similar, indicating that it can't mount /data cause the file exists... any ideas?

Also this probably means i lost the softmac file... and the sys file too... anyone have ones I could steal?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
X5a is fully compatible with 7005, not 7015. I did the same thing, I will dig up the command for you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
Ok, I dug up the info from a old post by "The Man" phygman.

Make sure your recovery.img is in the tools folder of the android sdk.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] qhtip:
Much appreciate the help. I manage to get the fwdn connect to the kyros but not sure which rom to flash it on. Just something to get back to eclair to use adb with.

Qhtip
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
Just use the recovery from the first post of this thread.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
It looks to me like you are having a permissions error of some sort. Have you tried flashing recovery in fastboot (most likely to allow you full access to the the partition).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] qhtip:
I think I am in deeper hole than I was. While I was flashing the recovery.img mid way through, the program crash to blue screen. Now the kyros can not be turned on. Nothing on the display. If I hold down the power button and press reset, xp detect an unknown usb device. If I try to install/update driver, it asks for android_winusb.inf. When I point to that, it complains that it does not contain any info about my hardware. I think, I killed it for sure. Will try to see if Dell offer an exchange.

Thanks for your help anyway, Adam;

Qhtip
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
What about Menu and reset?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] qhtip:
Nothing at all on the screen. I have to hold down the power button, press reset and xp recognized an unknown usb device. If I let go of the power button, xp will remove the unkonwn usb device. Can not install anything with it though. The installer will ask for android_winusb.inf but can not install anything. I think I really briked it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cbogiages:
Is there a way to get the files from eclair using a terminal emulator on the device rather than adb? I can't seem to get adb working and connecting from my Windows 7 machine to the Kyros. Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xconwayx:
adamdietrick, glad to see such an active member in this community come from the same great state! I live near Marshalltown, more famously close to the Meskwaki Casino, but I digress.

I followed the steps verbatim,

Code:

adb remount

adb push build.prop /system/

adb shell chmod 644 /system/build.prop

adb push calc_table /system/etc/

adb shell chmod 644 /system/etc/calc_table

adb push sensors.tcc92xx.so /system/lib/hw/

adb shell chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/sensors.tcc92xx.so

adb push softmac /data/softmac

adb shell chmod 644 /data/softmac

adb reboot

Minus I got the error, on the line adb push calc_table /system/etc/ that it was a directory so I modified it to adb push calc_table /system/etc/calc_table and it seemed to work. I went through the steps and everything booted fine into the OS. Now, my touch doesn't work properly. I see that if the steps were performed correctly that the touch screen will work. Any insight on what I could have done wrong?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
I remember going to Marshaltown often when I was a kid, but I too digress.

See step 3, where you would have pulled your calc_table from Eclair before starting the install.

Anyone have any ideas on overclocking or speeding up this thing?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TennisFreak007:
i installed the rom but there is a problem. my internal memory has gone down from 4gb to 261mb. the rest shows up under internal memory /mnt/nand. i dont know how to access this storage. i know this is happening cause the droid 1 has only 256mb internal and that is way cyanogen is based off of
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stoned99:
install quick system info and verify the space, I think that the rom doesn't display the sd card info because it's unusual to have internal memory
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TennisFreak007:
I installed quick sys info and it said internal memory was 261mb. I know before cyanogen I had 4gb, it even says it on the back of the coby mid7015 tablet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stoned99:
You don't have an external micro sd card also ?

It's weird cause I've got CyanogenMod and QuickSystem Info was seeing all my spaces. Are you sure you looked at the right place ? You installed the version 12-12 in the experimental folder of telechips ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TennisFreak007:

Titanium Backup with Coby mid 7015

Has any one done a backup using Titanium backup? I tried it but it does not put the backup in /sdcard. It puts it in /nand/TiataniumBackup. Maybe it does not see the card at all. i don't want to try to install Cymod with out nandroid and titanium backups working.

Coby Mid 7015

Quick question: Running system info, it states that my processor is an ARMv6-compatible, Telechips TCC89/91/92xx Demo Board running 720mhz. I thought this was an ARM1176 according to the box?

All I have done to it so far is root it and install marketplace, not that that would effect the proc type, or is this what it is supposed to say?

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stoned99:
Yep

If you go http://www.slatedroid.com you'll see that under Telechips, the Mid7015 is there (also known as EM71)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cobyhacker:
Thank you for the information, I was a bit concerned but after checking out the link, am good to go!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] timnaylor:
I ran into this same problem the first time I did it.

The missing step is to reboot your device before running this set of commands.

If it is still in the clockwork console, then the touch screen settings seem to get over ridden on it's first boot.

I ran these commands again with it booted into Cyanogen and it worked like a dream!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] timnaylor:
Wow

OK just wanted to say thanks! it is rare that an experimental build like the 20101212 cyanogen build actually runs better than the out of the box OS.

The screen resolution is better out of the box, the keyboard is better. The marketplace is great. The touchscreen works at least as well. The SDcard use with apps is better.

We already knew we were wating on Video

I also noticed that the mount internal/external (nand/sdcard) are not working but I can still easily push/pull with adb so it is not a problem, just noting it.

Finally I noticed that according to the battery usage it says that 75% of my battery usage is looking for a cell network even though this device is not capable. it would be nice if the airplane mode allowed wifi (especially since some planes now allow wifi) so that I could go to airplane mode with wifi on.

Great work guys, guide is very good.

Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yoopyoop:
Well, I don't know anything at all about these tablets (I'm thinking of purchasing one), but I have an Android phone running Cyanogenmod and Airplane Mode does indeed allow WiFi to work still. It will turn the WiFi off when you enter Airplane mode, but all you have to do is go into the menu and turn WiFi back on. In fact, I have both Airplane Mode and WiFi set up as easy toggles using the CyanogenMod version of the Power Control Widget. YMMV, but like I said, it works perfectly on the Droid phone.

Also, this thread from the Nook Color forum may be of interest: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=888216&highlight=cell+service
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kill-9:
Well I didn't do any of this work when booted. I assume you mean holding the big grey button on boot and going into the mod? yes thats the only way I can work with it. I don't think its permission, i think it can't find the mount
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] timnaylor:
Just found something else that doesn't seem to work. The external sound works but when I plug in headphones there is no sound...I will play a bit to see if I can make it work....is there a wiki page where we are logging working functionality? I would love to A) have a comprehensive set of tests we can run against each build and B) be able to share what we have working so people can make an informed decision about whether or not they want to switch.

Again I have to say great information on the tutorial and super painless install (Kudos).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] billquinn1:
Did you look to see where it saved the backup file? Maybe you have a newer version of Titanium. I will try updating and try again.

I renamed my CWM/CM images for COBY MID7015.

EM71.zip is now COBY7015.zip

recovery.EM71.img.zip is now recovery.COBY7015.img.zip

EM71-fixpack.zip is now COBY7015-fixpack.zip

I'll upload EM71 files tomorrow, it is for real Emdoor EM71 and Lonpad D7 users.

sorry for this inconvenience.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] timnaylor:
So do we have new builds to play with tomorrow?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
I'll make 20101212 for EM71/D7. sorry.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stoned99:
So the coby 7015 image is still the same as the previous 12-12-2010, you just renamed the file, right ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] timnaylor:
Wiki page for CyanogenMod

To consolidate a bit of this information pconwell has graciously allowed us to create a page for the kyros7015 on his wiki: http://pconwell.org/wiki/Coby_Kyros_MID7015

This is set up like the CyanogenMod wiki for supported devices. As we test and update builds I hope that this information can be used by everyone to make a simple walkthrough for updating this device.

I recovered back to eclair this morning to do a little work identifying the feature set. If there are things that you had working that don't this would be a great place to record that information.

I did make a few tweaks to the procedure, they have worked for me on a few of these now, so I am confident that they work. Please review them and let's get them right if I have made any errors. Also Thanks so much to everyone who has contributed here. I am amazed that this kind of hack is so painless...now if we can just get some of the telechips christmas present integrated and get CyanogenMod working fully!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] timnaylor:
Here is one that works on eclair but not on CyogenMod. I was never able to login and reply on CM.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
The links have been updated and tested. Thanks for letting us know about this!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mcalhoun:
I dunno here, been trying to get this working and running into probs. There is no "calc_table" file on my Kyros to begin with. For some reason I can do anything else I want to with adb but cannot get it to push the files I did manage to pull back to the tablet. Thus rendering a completely unresponsive unit after restoring Cyanogen. Anyone know what could be done to help me?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] billquinn1:
Enter

before you try to push or pull.

You have to get the calc_table before you restore the Cyanogen files. You'll need to restore back to eclaire pull the files then restore Cyanogen and push the files back.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mcalhoun:
That's the problem...There is no "calc_table" in the file.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stoned99:
Make sure your on Eclair when you try to get the cal_table and that you are connected. Type adb usb and make sure it says it's connected to your device
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mcalhoun:
OK, finally got my head wrapped around the instructions.

Instead of typing "adb shell" at the prompt (which I had been doing to no avail for 2 days) I just typed in "adb usb" at the prompt and then "adb pull...." Worked like a charm. Thank you for your patience with me, I can be a little thick sometimes. LMAO
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
No wonder it wasn't working-- why were you typing "adb shell"?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
thanks and sorry for delay.

I added EM71(Lonpad D7) and EM51 files. only recovery and boot image are different. system.img and fixpack are same. please test someone who has it. (may brick your device!)

--

EM51 has fastboot and use update.zip form updater. it seems COBY MID7015 is more similar than Lonpad D7 ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] straybits:
Worked well with EM71

I gave a try with my EM71, and it's working great. I think it is definitely more responsive than original Herotab G701 firmware my device came with, or lonpad D7 firmware I'm currently using.

Wifi works, and browsing experience is better than those stock roms. Higher response helps this ad-hoc resistive multi-touch very much, and makes it actually feasible to use it. It almost tempts me to ask the ETA for the final version :))

Out of curiosity, what was the difference between Coby Kyros MID7015 and EM 71 ? I have tried Kyros rom to my EM71, but touch screen did not work. Among firmware benders for this hardware, I think Coby is the most likely one to follow though longest, so I would like to know if there are any way to use Kyros firmware for my EM71.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
thank you for your report!

at least touch screen is different (as you know), but I don't know other difference...

talking about my CM images, only kernel (in boot.img) is different. possibly you can use Kyros firmware with EM71 kernel.

EM71(D7) uses tcc8900_mtd.img style firmware and FWDN tool officially, but I think custom update.zip (based on Kyros' + EM71 kernel) can be used on EM71.

to unpack/pack boot.img, I'm using split_bootimg.pl and mkbootimg. see http://sites.google.com/site/naobsd/android-tablet/hsg-x5a for these tools
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
updates?

i Have the mod installed and it works fine, any eta on updates or fixes for the mod, or any methods to work around these issues, my main one is the birds are really angry now.

Cuz I'm a creature of habit. LOL

I guess I just kept doing it instinctively instead of simply following the directions.

terminal emulator

can u use terminal emulator for this process
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] adamdietrick:
You aren't going to be able to push the calc_table without a pc. I think you could do the rest from a terminal emulator.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chito1202:
ohh , o.k

well i better get downloading
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xconwayx:
Quick question, I completely forgot about the functionality of the volume up and down buttons on the top part of the bar. Since doing the upgrades here on the forum they have gone missing. I have done a quick google search for a generic one, and also went through the settings seeing if something needed ticked. Even if there is not a viable solution to this how to you guys modify the volume while listening to music?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] darkstar702:
App Install Issues

I updated my Coby Kyros 7015 with the latest firmware found in this thread based on the links. The update process went fairly well, although I had to reboot the device a couple of times to do the ADB push commands.

The only problem I'm finding right now is that I can't seem to get apps to move to the SD Card, or to install there. I booted into ClockwordMod and partitioned the SD Card using the recovery menus. I formatted the card, and then attempted to move a couple of apps to the SD Card, but the move fails.

I'm also noting that when I try to install Borders e-reader the app fails to install (as do several other apps).

Now, on the upside - the tablet's responsiveness is *MUCH* better than the stock ROM, and the options are far better. The market works perfectly, and the execution of apps is much faster. Overall I'm impressed with this build!

Any suggestions on how to fix the SD Card app install issue?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] darkstar702:
Apps Install Issue Fixed

Okay, I was able to get the apps installation issue fixed by reselecting automatic destination in the CyanogenMod settings for app installation location. I had it set to the SD card, so I'm assuming its because the apps I installed don't support the SD Card storage.

Does anyone know if Apps2SD can be installed and used on Froyo?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mkw87:
You could download the Tasker app from the market and make widgets to change the volume. Just a suggestion....
