Anyone know where I can find one? I see the older ones might not work with the new NT OS upgrade. I tried to look around for one but I am a bit of a novice and didnt want to brick my tab. Any advice?
ALso, I plan on using CM9 as my custom rom so one that might work with that as well? Thanks so much!

Hey guys, so I just ordered an Eris which I intend to use on MetroPCS.
I just want to make sure that I'm doing all this in the correct order..
So, fist thing is that I need to make sure that the phone has 2.1 on it in order to use the 1 click root solution(love )
-Though if my phone isn't 2.1..how do I upgrade without rooting so that I can root?
Next, I need to choose a rom to use. I found the read first sticky listing all the most current roms and radios and other info on how to actually install them.
-Though, since the thread is closed are they really all the latest?
Lastly, I need to Flash (not sure if that is actually the correct terminology) the phone's settings over to Metro using the file found here.
I think that's the basic direction that I need to take. Please let me know if I'm missing anything.
I am in the dark about a couple things, though I'm not sure I need to understand them.
I know the kernel is a central part of the OS, but doesn't it come with the rom you choose? Why would you need to flash the Kernel, is it just to update your rom without actually changing your rom?
Also, what's with recovery images and what's an RUU?
Finally, how do I pick a rom that's right for me!? There seem to be so many and I'm not sure which are the most recent/functional/fast..
Anyway, you guys are awesome for all you do and I hope that this thread can be useful to someone besides just me.
Thanks again!!

Probably once you get the phone it will already have the 2.1 official OS or you can update it through the Settings and have it check for updates. I would suggest that you try xtrSense. I have no clue on the Metro settings though but I would imagine once you get a good ROM flashed that all you have to do is to just install the settings.
Thanks, yeah..I think that link that I posted takes care of the metro settings..at least it says it does.
I didn't think I would be able to do an over the air update because I was assuming that it was DL'd from a verizon server. Does the update to 2.1 come from a typical internet source that can be accessed from any network?
Hi all,
Wondering if anyone in the community knows of a way to root this Tablet and if there are any custom roms,
It's running 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean)

Used SuperOneClick which says it has worked however none of the Root checkers say it is and the Super user apps can't update their binaries, anyone know how to properly root these tablets?
I too have purchased this tablet from ALDI, I am very happy with it. Would love to be able to root it... you know what I mean

I have successfully rooted it following the instructions from http://whrl.pl/RdvMXo
However I had to do some things a little different, (after reading the guide you'll understand my next bit)
after I clicked the restore data and it doing the restore it's meant to reboot the tablet although mine didn't so after trying this several times I rebooted it manually to which it actually worked.
My only anger towards this tablet is that it was advertised as 1.2GHz CPU when in fact it's 1GHz.
Champion! Worked for me, Only took 10min.
Now that the device is rooted, what would you suggest next?
Im not well versed on the apps, roms or other things to run on a tablet. So any ideas would be great.
My phone is rooted with Clockwork Mod and a custom rom, is this possible with the tablet?
And once again, thanks for the help
Fred

See now I haven't done anything ROM wise with my tablet as of yet because there are no ROMs that I can find for our little chinese made no name brand tablet, I'll be keeping my ears and eyes open for any ROMs I can find or ones that people have tested, I'm just not keen to test one of them myself and brick my tablet.
Hi, I need someone's help in testing a new version of my Online Nandroid script. It has built-in support for MTK based devices such as yours. If anyone would like to try the beta, please send me a PM.
Hello everyone, I just joined after installing 6.0 on my Asus tf201. I have flashed ROMs from hairybean up to 6.0 and back as well as bricked this poor tablet several times. I have also replaced android with various versions of Linux using other sites so I'm no stranger to playing with nvflash and fastboot. I can also do some how-tos if anyone wants, anyways I made this thread cause I have a weird issue, I downloaded Super SU twice and both times TWRP 2.8.1.5 (I might have the numbers wrong) just rebooted like it was a soft crash or something. I would post in the thread I got the ROM from but I don't have enough posts yet, would an older version work without issue or do I have to just deal with no root ATM?
The version of Super SU that I'm trying is 2.52 BETA as the post specified that one but doesn't say if an older will work. I look forward to having a great time here, and I welcome any and all feedback.
Thank you for your time.

Tiger,
I'd just update the recovery to the latest Area 51 version. It's got a few new features that are pretty slick. From there, grab one of the SU's from one of Taconikki's Rom's. They worked for me every time.

I can use a howto which is current if anyone has one for flashing from stock.

If you still need a how-to Ill get started on it, if you do I just need to know if you have done any backups or anything in case you brick the tablet. Mine is currently running android 7.1, I havent checked to see if 8 is available yet (presuming someone ports it of course) and Ill even cover how to go back to stock if you need that info as well.
Thanks! I finally did upgrade it to 7.x and am waiting to see if someone gets an oreo build

I keep checking every now and then, but my tf201 keeps randomly rebooting, so it hasnt seen much use as of late. I am currently working on porting ubports (formerly ubuntu touch) to my galaxy note 4 though. I might try and get it on my tf201 eventually cause when I tried it on there it was butter smooth and tank reliable. I switched it back to android cause there were no apps at the time and the build has been abandoned since then, so who knows.
Hi All,
I've got a gtab with a custom tnt rom,I would like to get gtab work with android >= 4.4 , I found some work done by borkata at tabletroms.com ..and he said that he attempted to get android 4.4 work on gtab but issue was in the kernel. and he doesn't have this device to try himself...
Point is that rom might be ready because Borkata is still developing some rom for adam notion ink (device very similar to gtab except the ram which is 1gb on adam instead of 512mb on gtab). I'm available to use my spare time to get it work, but I need some expert who can help me to explain what steps I need to do.... I've got computer science experience and I've already read some guide around here....What basically I need is a mentor who can assist me on this process.....
My first question is: Since we already have a kernel for gtablet, could I use it instead of that in the adam rom and try to flash it?
If not, how can I download the latest kernel and generate one for gtable? if so, any good guide around?
Same question for the rom, can I download the AOSP and create one for gtablet? if so, any good guide around?
Finally, for any issue over this work, would someone be available to help me to troubleshooting?
Thanks
Greetings everyone
I have this awesome tablet for my young son who loves to watch YouTube kids
The current FW which is an OFW will not permit the DL of YouTube kids I think due to compatibility issues etc.
I ask anyone to advise on how to load a CFW or something to allow me to run YTK and other items. Obviously I would need android 5 or higher.
Where could I find step by step instructions to do this? I am not sure of the detailed ways so I am needing patience from you.
I would appreciate all the help, so will my son
Thank you
Have you tried rooting it? What model is your tablet - 10.1?

Try the 7.1.2 Nougat Rom
I prefer Nougat without gapps and overclock the CPU to 1400 MHz.

Good luck
I have the 10.1 GT-P 7510 I had XDA root it for me through their 1 click root system because I didn't want to take the chance on messing anything up because you read so much online about people bricking devices trying to root them. I also have kind of the same question, I have an old version of Netflix on mine that runs perfect but would like to go to a newer version, and I would also like to install kodi or xbmc on this tablet so I can take it with me on trips and be able to watch movies. after extensive searching I was able to find out that supposedly kodi 14.2 helix will work on this tablet, but trying to find it is essentially impossible, and when you do find the file it always seems to be broken in some way and wont work, supposedly there is a program called SBMC which is a fork of kodi for this device, but can't find that one anywhere. so my question is this because I am so new to this rooting thing. My tablet is already rooted with Super SU and I would like to know where I could look to get instructions how to install the nougat 7.1 rom or even a different rom to be able to go to some newer apps at this point I have been a little timid about doing too much because at least Netflix is working, and the xda tech told me not to factory reset it update it and a few other things, and a few other things because then it won't be rooted. any help in this will be very much appreciated and please feel free to move this post if it is in the wrong area and I apologize it is my first time posting. I will say this though it was well worth the 40.00 to have xda root it for me because it can be a bigger process than people think depending on the device the guys are awesome.

I also have a 10.1 GT-P 7510(wifi) 32g. The P7500 and the P7510 are basically the same and use the same firmware. I've had mine rooted for a long time. I use Kingoroot because it's easily replaced with Supersu. As far as ROMs go I've had only difficulties. What I can tell you is that for myself this has been a little difficult up til possibly just recently. There are many ROMs available here at XDA, most of them were unstable. The 7.1 Nougat, https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-7-0-nougat-t3471350, looks promising but I haven't got CWM recovery to flash the zip without giving me a "No File_Contexts warning. If I could get a tar.md5 ROM I would use Odin3 in a heartbeat. Version 1.85 is the one I use most and thats just to undo the softbricks, by flashing in the original firmware. If you live in the US its this, https://www.androidlegend.com/update-samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-wi-fi-p7510-with-ics-4-0-4-uelpl/. Run that through Odin if you ever get stuck in bootloop crash the tab, pretty much anything but a hardbrick. The 8.0 Rom I'm waiting for the developers to complete.
