OK...So I must be missing something here with installing these ROMs to my 7024. And yes... I've looked at the Coby PDF for the official process as well.
Basically I download any of the custom ROMs ... unzip the contents to the root of my external SD Card (so it's not a single folder but rather multiple folders and files). I put the external SD card into the external SD slot of my 7024. Power-on the tablet holding the HOME+Power button until I see the words "Update System Activated" ... and then I get the error message "Can not find update image. Press Menu/Up to init ... blah blah blah." So I press Menu/Up and the recovery process kicks off with Making Partitions... shuts down ... and then reboots back to the default ROM (not a custom ROM). And of course it wipes everything out and I have to go through the whole process of calibrating the screen.
So it's doing a factory restore rather than looking to the external SD card for the update. So I guess the question is (and that is not stated in the Coby instructions) ... do I have to crack open the case and put the SD card in the "internal" SD slot on the motherboard ... or should this work in the "external" slot and I'm just missing something.
Oh ... and yes my tablet is rooted already. Thanks.
