Hello everyone, I'm new here, and noticed no topics on developing roms for the android based SiriusXM Lynx, From what I understand, it runs on Froyo. For those of you unaware, it is a Satellite/wifi/bluetooth radio, but has android under it. A friend of mine discovered the recovery menu on his Radio today, and posted some pics.
(I would post these pics here, but I am unable to right now since I am new)
Anyone think this thing can get a custom Rom on this to run a regular version of android, or any neat tricks to play on this little device? my aplolgies if this is not the right place to put this thread, just wanted to know if anyone knew anything about this? thanks again guys

Hi!
Im just chugging this question out there if anyone knows the answer im gonna be gland and also the devs of Plex as this regards.
I bought plex the other day witch is a video streaming app x-platform witch is good and all, but it has problems with the new gingerbread release i only get a blackscreen when viewing videos and need to resort to a workaround witch is explaind in another post here on xda. The thing is it does work on the old firmware ie android 2.1. My question is what has changed in between the two releases that can affect this? is it DRMs or videodrivers. Im a total noob in the area of coding and such but i want to forward this to the plex devs since the X10 is not the only device with this problem.
here is one of the threads over at plexapp.com forums.plexapp .com/index. php/topic/24581-sound-but-no-video-newest-versions-of-pms-and-android-app/
I just picked up a Wintec Filemate Identity 7 inch tablet with Froyo 2.2 installed on it. I have rooted the device using Z4root. I am now trying to figure out if there are any Gingerbread roms that I could install on this tablet. Any information you guys/gals may have would be great, if you could share.
I have searched all over the Internet trying to find any roms, including all over XDA-Developers, and I am not finding to much at all.
Would this tablet be the same as the Z9 Blade? I know its the same as the Enspert Identity tablet. The version I have is not the Light, its the regular model with the full Arm Cortex A8 1 ghz processor.
Thanks,
Bryan
Any body got any ideas on this?
I'm looking for the same thing. I'm also rooted with z4root and haven't been able to find a single piece of anything as far as development on this device. I'll favorite this thread and post any info i find. If you find anything post it here. I'm sure there are plenty of others out there looking for the same thing. This is a really nice device and i got it from Walmart for less than $200. I hope some of my favorite devs pic this one up. Have you figured out anything as far as a custom recovery for this device?

Everywhere i look it says it's a Samsung capacitive based tablet. Does this mean you can flash clockworkmod recovery in ROM manager under Samsung capacitive? I'm scared to try it. Let me know if you do.

I've got a Wintec Filemate coming for the wife and would be interested to know the same thing. This tablet is probably not popular enough for someone to write a ROM for it.
I hope it grows in popularity. It should, it's incredibly smooth and such good quality for the price. I've had quite a few tablets from Walmart and took them all back because of lag and freezing issues. I was really surprised when i got this one and it functioned so well. We need someone to donate one to one of these good devs on here. I wish i had them means to do it.

Thanks for the root guide. Are there any ROMs that can be loaded on this device?
Just poking in to say that I, as well, own this device and am curious if there's a Gingerbread rom somewhere out there for it. The device is advertised as being "2.3 ready" so if anybody knows exactly how to make that happen, I and the other people and the thread would be very grateful.
RE: Roms
I searched high and low and no roms or even recovery is available for the Filemate Identity tab.
These e201u tablets are actually made by Enspert out of Korea. Wintec just puts a sticker over the Enspert name and resells them at a higher price. I bought 4 of them as xmas gifts for a steal at $129 each (on black Friday) from dynamism.com. Not a bad tablet at all once it's rooted. Nice to see others feel the same way. It would be sweet if a new rom could be made as they are running Froyo 2.2. The identitytab.com site has the kernel.tar and e201.img file available if that would help anyone out there.
nothing yet anyone??

enspert e301
hello there....
may i ask if my espernt identity tab e301 can upgared to android 4.x.x/3.x.x/gingerbread
can you help me to upgrade it??
thanks in advance,,
newbie here,.,.,.,
Wondering if there has been any advancement on this as there isn't much on this site as of late.. Got one of the playbooks for $199..great deal.. it's decent but NEEDS Android badely..have only found a few hacks to allow Marketplace to be installed and apparently run Android apps on it...is this true? if so..is it done well and worth it? but more importantly is there anyway to hack the os to install Android and not just the app marketplace?
This question has been asked days ago in question and answer as well.
The thread said : someone has successfully rooted it, and a custom rom is coming soon.

(Hey: this forum has a search feature )
Hi!
I am overseas and my girl sent me a gtablet for me since I needed something portable and light..She got it off ebay for cheap...now I know why lol.. Anyway I am a total noob on doing a rom install. I have way too little time and a spotty internet access where I am so I need just to ask the forum gurus here my question and hope that someone will be kind enough to answer and ppoint me in right direction Thanks in advance
I want a rom that will give me access to google play, allow flash, and netflix and hulu to run(when I am in northern Africa the internet availibilty should be better lol so I can use these features.. Those are my main concerns for the rom. Can someone point me to a solid rom that will do what I mentioned before? And could someone please tell me what in addition to the rom I need to download and install to make work? I am using tapui 1.2-5699 build frf91 if that helps..
Again I apologize for being a noon and if I had constant signal I would look thru the mounds of pages here to find what i am looking for..sadly I do not have the access here to do reliably and we have to share what time we get here..so if someone here could take pity and ofer me a good solid rom choice that does what I ask of it and what ever other files I need to download(maybe even a ezy noob guide to walk me thru it) I would be forever in this sites debt.. It is lonely in this part of Africa and she thought this would be helpful..anyway..thanks for your help mates!
For what you are describing, I recommend Frankentab. It is fast, stable, and does everything you listed well. I also recommend that you visit viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com . It has easy to follow instructions and files you need to make the switch. Good luck.

Which 1.2 version is it. They just did the 1.2.5699? upgrade via Viewsonic. It has some issues with rom installation, however if you still have the original 1.2 root version then Frankentab works great. Of course if your using the 1.1 build then you can take a look at HC 3.3. It has been discontinued but will fire up your gtablet just great. Super east to install with CWM and there are multiple video's on installation.
Hi all
I recently signed up on XDA.Don't get me wrong,I'm an intermediate android user.
Anyhow,I'm using nobles smooth bean ROM,and when I run certain apps,there's a black static screen,continuous audio and then I have to close the app.I NEED a solution by Thursday,as I need the gtab good for a project ( App I'm using has the problem.)
Thanks in advance

You're going to need to tell us what the app is.
Secondly, putting deadlines on devs isn't going to help your case. If you need to do real work, get a fully supported device. Such is the nature of hacking - it's an imperfect art. If you can use an older rom, I would suggest doing that instead, as they are more stable.

Im using the base MX Media player and Quickoffice. (Side note,FIFA 12 experiences the issues too)
Welcome to the forums. First things first, questions go in the Q&A forum, I am sure a mod will move it but remember next time so you get faster response.
Same problem as yours:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1966774
which leads me to 2nd point, SEARCH first. Not trying to be rude, trying to keep the mods from having to school you, and trying to help. when threads get clogged its harder to find good info. Please dont take any of this the wrong way, we really try to help around here.
I searched for my problem already and came up with that thread. Our problems arnt similar.His slows then cuts to a pitch black.Mine gives static then occasionally reboots.Yet sound isnt affected.I tried noble's advice and it didnt work,same problems,which lead me to post here.
I would suggest reinstalling from scratch, and by the book. I would also add the step of formatting /system just in case. I found that without that, my /system folder was maxed out, though it shouldn't be... don't know why that happened the first time.

Smoothbean 11-15-12 Release
I want to thank Nobe for his work. For the first time since Froyo (and in two years of using Android) I have an advanced version of Android on my Gtab that really works smoothly. I have been running it for nearly a week and have only seen one, maybe two slowdowns and they both cleared after a moment or two on their own.
Everything appears to work. While I haven't tried Bluetooth, I have no reason to believe I'll have issues.
Again, Nobe, thanks, I will click the "Thank You" button today.
