Hi all be patient with a noob.
I have a couple of ZTE phones which i have rooted and installed roms on so not totally clueless.
Now to the point I have unfortunately bought myself or should I say my wife 2 yes thats 2 Archos door stops.
One is a 101 IT G8 the other is a arnovatech 10 G2 (designed by archos).
The 10 G2 needs a power jack plug repair (nothing new there then) and I will looking elsewhere for advice on that one.
The 101 IT needs some work to make it easier for her to download her favorite games from google play, play store or whatever its called now.
So which do users feel is the best rom to use on this tablet based on stability, I know the most stable will be stock rom but this does not have google play?.
Hello
you can install google play with arctools (you find it in applibs)

yes had thought about doing that but still wondering which is one of the better roms to use.
some people says urukdroid, some says original rooted rom, some says gingerbread...
first install SDE on your archos then install all disponible rom (degu, urukdroid, ICS ) then try them
for me the best rom ist GB (degu version) but for a lot of people it's urukdroid

Thanks for that, with a lack of response i'll leave it as is and just put market on via arctools.
Only problem with that is flashplayer is not gonna work, so she wont be able to watch videos or play her facebook games until i can get the apk file sorted.
I have flash player installed on my archos, normally on the first page of applibs

Hello everyone, I´m new on the android word and just got myself an x10 mini, and would like to install a ROM. the real thing im after is the ability to save apps to SD, I tried installing App2sd, using a tutorial in these forums, but it completely broke android 3 times, getting stuck on an endless reboot cycle.
Now that that option is out of the window I am looking at ROMS.
My phone is flashed with an international firmware, with band M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015, Android 2.1. What would be the best ROM (given persona experience) fully working, of course?
Thank you,

hi im pretty new too, but found it quite easy, i installled 2.3.3, i havent got time right now to post the links il get back 2 you if you havnt sorted it, but you can get all links and software from this site, the easiest way i found was using superoneclick to root, just one click! then youl need xrecovery to backup (just incase) &restore then browse for the rom you want to use, if you have a look you'll find all these on here with n00bie instructions 4 us beginners, hope this helps some what.
Im going with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200675
Currently backing up with Xrecovery, but im not sure if I need to wipe user data and cache? the rom guide does not say anything

welcome 2 android
ROM's are of personal taste and as the camera problem of gingerbread is fixed,most of the ROM's are fully working.....as u r new to android, i would suggest you to go for MiniCM7 2.0.5 as the MiniCM is perfectly "tailored" for the mini's small screen estate...however, other ROM's like GingerDX, FroyoBread, MiniCM6, Andread etc are very stable alternatives too ..i am using "FRoyoBread" latest version because i find the battery consumption to be less than the Gingerbread builds
if you are after the ability of moving the apps to SD, most ROM's would suffice. But, i'll give u a caution, don't move apps with "Widget" support or "operational" apps to the SD card...many a time u will get a "problem loading widget" popup or your SD card won't show up on the computer.
try some ROM's until u find the one u would like the best...most of the ROM's are great because OUR DEVS ARE AWESOME
if i helped you, press the "THANKS" button

yes u NEED to format the user data and the cache for avoiding startup bootloops
Search before you ask
try this TUT http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194499
Thank you. Android is awesome!
I´m trying GingerDX, the only problem I have found is the keyboard. it was too big for the screen (Unmodified X8 port) but ThickButtons from the market fixed it. Loving Gingerbread so far. On a side note, my new phone, and thus Android, has put some stress between me and my wife, because ive been spending more time with the phone than with her! lol!
Indeed the devs are awesome. THANK YOU!!!!!

THx,
I already found out how to root and install honeycomb 3.0.1..
apparently to those who seek the same answer i use z4root to root the tablet.. then i install ROM MANAGER and choose advent vega
install clockworkmod from there and boot to recovery.
once into recovery, i installed the vegacomb now i have honeycomb
not sure if i'm on the right track there.. but it works for me
Ey, i have same tablet. Im trying to do same that you but i just restart with vegacomb beta 7, updated with beta 8 and it restarts ever. What versions did you use?
Do you know how could i kill this restart and restart and restart...
Regards.
I answer myself. I just done with Vegatools 4.0 and VegaModdedStock 1.10 v2 ^_^
At now i have an issue with screen touch... it doesn't recognize fine at all gestures and touches... :/
Wait you can run Vegan 3.2 on the Gtab?!
How?!
viewsonic viewpad with Honeycomb
I just installed Honeycomb (Android 3.2) on my viewsonic and it worked great.
go to the "code google android-x86 download list" site.
It is the first on on the List. This is a iso file so you need to convert it to run on a usb drive.
I also want to thank the tegav people.
This workd great!!!!!

Hey guys,
It's been some time since I have been here, I went out into the void of other phones when T-Mobile gave me a free G2 back in July. Anywho, I am here because I am trying to set my old Optimus T up for my boyfriend as his iPhone just fell out of his car and obliterated... Plus, he wants to give Android a whirl (I am so excited!)
Does anyone know the best gingerbread rom that is currently available, looking for something that can run things like angry birds, fruit ninja, maybe a gba emulator... OH! I also saw that there is FLASH available for this phone now, should I look for a rom with that built-in? Or should I flash it myself?
; Sorry for all of the questions! I really hope I don't seem too crazy. Haha.
There is a poll here. I'm running mik_os' CM7 6.6.1, and I've successfully installed Flash 10.1 with this ROM. You can download the Flash installer here.

Hello people im a noob i know, but ive searched the entire forum ive read the threads on developmente with [ROM], but i can never download a working rom, what m i doing rong, are you all hiding the roms.
P.s - After following several tutorials i have rooted and installed rom manager and clockworkmod on my viewpad7 so i just cant find any roms to test it, thank you in advance.
Anyone, really i can find the place to download them, i found a link to a paid website, and then it says private, other then that nothing.
Can anyone help me ??
Is that a big secret ?
Im still searching, can someone give me a reliable link ? PLEASE
Welcome, I'm not sure which specific custom ROM for the Vpad7 you are looking for, it would help if you can be spell it out ...
You are aware that newer ones are ITE (multi-touch screen) hardware/firmware based and older/generic/other name-branded ones are non-ITE, and the few Roms developed mostly in 2011 are distinct for each group.
Any and all files, including ROMS, patches and downloads housed on multiupload.com sites have been DOWN and unavailable as those servers have all been offline and shut - for good apparently, as in permanent. (Goggle for what happened, as you obviously are unaware as newbie around here ... as I won't go into details)
The EU V1.7b (ITE verison) is available via my dropbox as OP has been away & will have a new link up shortly - see below & perhaps you will better understood.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224825&page=31
Another recently posted ROM - KWBR V3.2 based on U.K. ROM (also for ITE) and is available for use, I successfully downloaded it & used it briefly.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386469
FlintFire_V1.0 zip download seemed to be available as it's also housed on a DropBox account
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236988
These should be adequate to get started - read, read & read first, then - backup before proceed at your own risk and speed with OP's instructions. Good luck !
Thank you so much for the answer, as for those websites being closed, yes i know whats happening, im not that newbie .
My viewpad is ITE, and i had it rooted and installed clockworkmod, so im not looking for any specific rom, i just want one that would increase the performance and mainly the speed of my vpad7, so what you recommend ?
Still cant really find any usefull link.
Thank you in advance.

I use EU V1.7b ITE ROM as my favorite ROM of choice, developer is back and one of the best around here for the Vpad7.
The CPU has practical limits and hardware cannot be overclocked at this point, performance is optimized AFAIK - YMMV.
Don't know what else to say about it ... Happy searching to you on "any usefull link"
Thank you for all, im finally getting some working links, sucessfully downloaded and still trying kwbr Viewpad 4.0.
Very strange, its installing without asking everything i had before even very old stuff that i had uninstalled long time ago, but i did erase all the cache before loading this ROM, is this normal ?
Never mind, fixed it , i just set everything to factory settings because i noticed the account was not syncing, now i have the ROM kwbr working with the account syncing, im installing whatever i want, everything working fine its even faster.
Greetings to All,
I have got this 7 inch tablet that goes by the name "karbonn smart tab 3 blade".
This has neuclear evb board with ingenic cross kernel.
It features ics 4.0.4. However I am looking for a way
to backup the stock rom and also looking for other compatible rom if there is any.
The reason is that the stock rom is incapable of using video and voice feature in google talk. I know there are other softwares capable
of doing that but the major pain is that the google plus app has stopped working. It started going in a never ending login loop and then
it simply crashed. This crash happened after I installed a non stock talk apk .
Any help with the backup process and compatible rom is highly appreciated.
