Thanks for stopping to read this.
I wanted to know if this has been rooted yet, and also if I can load it up to honeycomb yet?
On a side note does anyone know if the snes and other emulators work well on it?

Hello,
Replacing with the firmware makes the device root. You have multiple to choose from. TNT lite. Vegan Etc..
I have not seen honeycomb firmware yet but the word is that the devs are looking in to in and will be available once it is fully tested.
I have seen the emulators work on the viewsonic so the question to that is YES..
Enjoy..
I think most of us bought this for the hardware knowing that Android developers will eventually bring us everything we want and more. If the tab can't do "it" now I am sure it will soon.

Thanks, it will be here tomorrow. I just needed to find the specs sheet on tiger and was sold. Can't believe it's a 150 dollars off right now, it's less then my cellphone was. Glad it is on sale, it can replace the crappy dual boot viewsonic tablet I got. Wish it had said on the site hey this isn't real android on here.
I was also reading, people say flashing a CFW is simple with the gtablet. Something about how there are no blocks or anything in the way to keep you from doing it which is great. So I will just look around in here for the how to flash unless it's as simple as CWM.
Yep, just CWM! Though, possibly a touch more than normal with a simple phone, like the Droid. You need to repartition it in CWM for best results, then wipe everything, then install the ROM. Depending on the ROM, you most likely will want to install GAPPS after. That's pretty much it! Most of the ROMs come with decent kernels, I've noticed.
Good thread to step through the process.

It is real android, they just their own "layer" on top of it. It is fairly easy to install another Rom on this thing, just make sure you read, understand, and follow the directions carefully.
Once you get it installed, unless you feel comfortable with possibly having to do a bit of work if you "mess it up", I would try not to fool around with it too much. I've installed Vegan-Tab 5.1.1, and a kernel, and it runs fine, so I try to just use it as is...
back it up with nvflash before you start rooting....that will prevent you from bricking your tab. I just got mine last week and its amazing how well it works . I am currently testing our different roms on it to see which one I like the best. Vegan 5.1.1 and TNT Lite 4.4 are pretty nice to start off with.

Always good to backup, I assume as long as you get that even if you totally mess up you can just reflash it and try again. It will be here tomorrow around 11ish, so once I get done at the office going to get a few ciders and attack this thing.

Depending on the package, it will be some of the missing Google stock apps. such as the Market.
One other thing - boot it and set up wireless so you can get any over the air updates before you put a new ROM on.

Thanks mate, I planned to try out the stock first just to see what they did with it.
Oh, one other thing. How is the screen on this? Nice and clear? I only ask cause on the viewpad 10 I bought some months back, well the screen looks awful unless you got it maxed brightness, it just always looks like there is dust on it.

I think it looks really good, as long as you are at the right angle. You probably heard that it has a narrow field of view if you tilt it up or down (while being held in landscape). But, when looking at a decent angle (tilted less than 45 degrees, maybe?) the screen itself is bright and clear.

That sounds about the same for the angles as the viewpad 10. My only problem was that it honestly always looks like a dusty. But I will know for sure in about 3 hours when I am done here. Don't most tablets have issues if you try to tilt them too much one way or another?

weird seems that link doesn't work.
EVEN WORSE, there is like 2 pixles that are red. Are they dead or just somehow locked?
Well not sure what exactly happened bc to my knowledge gameloft hasnt yet updated it, but however flashing jermaines newest rom i confirmed on the cornerstone and reg aokp roms that order and chaos is indeed running perfect with no mods at all, and throw in motleys new kernel its better than WoW. Everyone test this out as well see if its just me, or possibly just the rom
Roms tested:
Jermaine AOKP-(source of the backup I'm using to restore on other roms)
Jermaine AKOP cornerstone alpha
CM9 nightly (used data backup from TB and game runs good)
yeah, its working !!! and downloading data as well what about gameplay experiences ?
Please be true... I will leave work early today and isolate myself if this is true.
Wow, please be true. I want to play the game so badly with my Prime
Data is downloading on rooted/locked stock as well. Never did that before.
**edit**
Downloaded, launched, checked license, waited a bit then exited to desktop.

yes sir...not sure it means anything but in device info it's listed as Eepad...but when I hook up to comp....still shows tf201
Sounds like good news. I use to play this religiously on my Ipad. I might stay away from this. It was too much of a time consumer..lol.
I really wish they would finally just merge the Android and IOS servers together. If they did, I'd hop back online in a heartbeat. Then I would build my guild back up on IOS whispering island server called "HELLRAISERZ" . We were the official villain guild. Ah, the Memories of pvp wars in Vega before dungeons came around and ruined everything. All people wanted to do was dungeons and no one like to fight anymore..lmfao. Real PvP, not dueling, was my forte
Beware of me if I do hop back on this game, I'm a beast..lol. does buying the game for prime still give you 3 free months like on IOS?

Very simple, start by reading my posts....all of them i mention Jermaine and his amazing AOKP Rom, so far i have been testing all the prime roms out there and his is the only one that works flawlessly or at all for that matter....dont know what makes it different but ive tested it many times on his 1.12 and 1.2 Aokp roms and also his Cornerstone alpha even runs the dang game LOL. go figure
Just unlocked my prime for this. Will install AOKP then, although I just had a problem with the wifi. Will report back later!
Edit: With AOKP the app closes after verifying the app license. Not quite sure how to get this to work. My TF201 is German.
Yeah stock... just crashes.

Dang..it was THST serious? Lmao. To unlock your prime just for this game. All you had to do was look for the tf101 modified version that works on prime. No unlock needed. Just Google it. Can't link THST kind of info here.

Yea well if it was indeed possible to do that. I it would be awesome but unfortunately it doesn't exist for tf101 either hence why there is a zillion posts on ppl trying to find a fix
Yeah there isn't a tf101 mod for this game that doesn't crash at the character select screen.
And demandarin, it is THAT serious. I loved playing this game in my car during lunch while blasting music. I extended my data plan w/ T-mobile for my phone just to wifi tether to my prime for this game.
S/N difference?
Could this have something to do with the different versions of the TF201?
Perhaps you could write the beginning of your Serial Number, and we may be able to find out more?
This may seem like a dumb question but I am unsure about which root method or files I should be using to root my i717 that is currently running Jelly Bean 4.04 with kernel 3.0.8. I am thinking that I can just use the one shown in the general thread but that says for STOCK note.
Any information would be greatly appreciated. I would like to get out from under the TWLauncher umbrella so I can use things like the new google search feature.
Thanks!
This is what I used. Worked great

Now to try to find out which ROM I should use. Any recommendations? Im hoping to find one that has the new google voice search similar to siri. Thanks again for the help, it is much appreciated.

Glad that worked out for you, if you where looking for a custom rom, you could have skipped root in the first place and gone straight for custom recovery then a custom rom !
As for what your looking for, your looking for Google Search (Dubbed Google Now) on a Jelly Bean rom (unless you want to use a sideloaded possibly modified version for ICS) which is the parallel to siri (im trying to be neutral, IMHO Google Now crushes Siri six ways from sunday MOST of the time... situational use of course is the reason "most of the time" is said)

Actually a sideloaded modded version would be great. I am not really interested in much other than checking that out. I suppose I can just google for one unless of course you know of a working one. Thanks again for all the info.
Now is bundled into Google Search on JB. Hold the search button and it pops up. I'm using CM10 stable. Other roms have more options here and there but it's the most stable and smoothest I've used with the least random reboots ( A common JB problem)

Thats great and all, but from what I am understanding of what he said, hed rather not mess with it too much and stick on stock AT&T ICS 4.0.4 and just sideload Google Now...
I dont have a link handy, I read about it, but never cared because I have no issue with CM10 (but yea, google search should do the trick for you, just make sure you nab the latest version since it was only recently updated)!

I was able to find a working version of Google Now. Seems to work fairly well on my 4.0.4 build. I haven't yet decided if there is a real reason for me to try and change out the actual rom or not. There are so many that I really have no idea what I would be getting by doing one over the other.
Thanks again for the info.
This was originally an opinion post that turned in to more.. I am leaving the thread intact and the stock rooted rom dump can be found in post #20
Original text:
I picked up a couple of the 5" refurb players for my kids (ages 6&7) for christmas (both are YP-G70CW). I am actually quite impressed with this device, but thats not why i am here.
I plan on rooting them so i can do a hidden install of Cerebrus just in case they lose them or they get stolen. Anyway, since these will be going to my kids, i dont want to heavily mod them, i want them to be reliable.
This is where the opinions come in, do i leave the stock rom on there or is there another reliable rom that would be super kid friendly that has no problems?

i dont think that any anti theft is that helpful due to the lack of mobile data.
unless a thief is dumb enough to connect to their own wifi, there is no way for the galaxy player to report its location
I fully agree with the above comments.
I have a 5.0 for more than one year and now a Nexus 7. if I take at side the device speed (for heavy games) The 5.0 is in my view the best staple in today market. Especially in term of portabilty!
good choice

You can flash a cerebrus zip to the system and hide it from the app drawer. This also keeps it from being removed from a factory reset. If someone stole, or "found it" then they would have to be at least smart enough to flash different firmware, or manually remove it. I would rather have little protection than none at all. And if it fails me then i am only out the $140 per device that i spent.

I have N7, N4, HTC Vivid, an older LG Optimus, a few chinese android knock offs, etc... my kids love playing with my N7 but i wanted to get them something a little more portable that they could easily take back to their mom's house. I came across these refurbed players and knew immediately that it would be perfect for them.
Just like any big kid with a new toy, i couldn't wait to get them and try them out (well, i have to test them, they are refurbs)... And i have to say that i actually really like this device. I kinda want one for myself.
I use chip rom and everything works(its based on GB ) ..i use mine on 1.5 ghz with undervolted FQ and i tell you (at least on chip rom) most apps works faster then on nexus 7..i put side by side nexus 7 and GP5 and press buttons on same time ..in 90% SG5 would open faster or finish faster.

So i still didn't get this... I plugged the one in to my machine with windows booted up and Kies told me there was an update. So i figured i would grab the update and dump that, then also dump my other one without the update and give you guys both.......
Well this turned out to not be an easy process. Kies did something and F'd up the drivers. I spent a good hour (uninstalled/reinstalled drivers, hard reset phone, etc) with it trying to make it see the phone again to no avail. So this morning i booted linux and tried to get a dump and ran out of time. I am off work tomorrow so i should have more time.

But i followed the instructions and encountered no errors to achieve an Odin flashable TAR file, it was just over 300MB, It zipped down to 183. SO file size to me seems to be normal.

Hi all!
Could you be so kind and help me revert back to honeycomb stock?
I know it sounds crazy, but I cant stand anymore how slow and laggy CM 10.1 I currently use is on this device. I've tried a lot of things like factory reset, reflushing lates nightly etc. Still horribly slow and at times totally unresponsive.
My ultimate goal is return back to task650 rom.
However I cannot find any HC stock images. I do not think that I can simply flush HC rom in CM 6.0.3.1 recovery.
I was only able to find hc-3.2_touchwiz_ux-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip from pershoot.
Please advise! Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Not sure where to find an HC-image yet, but what about trying Omni-ROM 4.4.2 KitKat newest build (+ A1-Kernel)?
It still has got some quirks, like bluetooth-audio not working or slow Video-decoding, but the rest is quite good and fluid now.
Thanks for your reply! However we are talking about my wife tablet and she needs video/cameras and BT.
So, unfortunately KK is out consideration at this point.
By the way, is KK Omni really that better? Thought I guess anything is better then touching screen and seeing touch and then waiting a couple of seconds for an action to really happen. I do not know what Google changed in memory management, but it now doesn't hold a candle against older versions. At least for such old device as Tab 10.1 is.
If your wife doesn't need much features, go for Omni 4.3. Its very smooth and stable enough for daily use.

Camera works; Bluetooth works also, just not streaming audio to a bluetooth-audio-device; Videos also work. Lokally stored seem to be better than streamed (YouTube, gameone, etc.)

Then... What about JellyBean3 (Android 4.3.1)?
I think most if not all you need is already compatible on that and it is a lot better in any case, thought.

Even 4.1.2 cm10 was superior,... What do you think you can expect from a Kitkat-Build?
IMHO, yes it is, even with those little quirks...
...and not to be mean, but I really don't think any 4.2-build can be called stable... They all have heavy idle-times/"hangs" up to a minute, if you've got some CPU&IO-Load-Hungry apps installed and running...

Well... May be it is my bad luck... I do not remember any CM build of any version that was smooth as Task650 rom.
So, you suggest to try rollback to 4.1? I though they stopped development.
Wife use BT streaming... I just got her nice LG headphones.
I guess I softened the problem a little bit for now by removing all apps that create background services and account. FB, LinkIn etc.
It helped a little bit.

Nope. I think you should rather try a 4.3.x-based build.
