This CFW won't work in 8024 right ?
Since I reinstalled I haven't had any issues. The only thing I have noticed is with the HDMI my settings don;t save. When I set to 720P, enable HDMI audio on, it will all go back to the default settings at 180P, HDMI audio off. I have played around with other settings and these are the only ones that do that so far.

No, it will brick any other model unless one chanes many files, including u-boot. If you don't know what you're doing I suggest that you don't try to modify this one, and use a ROM made for 8024 instead.
You mean it goes back after a restart? If yes, I think it's by design. Other than this, I don't remember any issues when changing HMDI settings.
OK. Since this is my only Coby I was going by comparison to other tablets. Good to know. Thanks!
I've installed Handcent on my 1024, it installed properly. I was also surprised it was able to locate my contacts (I am not sure how) if it got it from my SIM via the 3G dongle or from my Google account. When I tried to send SMS, it just keeps saying "Sending"....the app does work but it cant seem to send SMS. Maybe I am a wishful thinker...but just maybe SMS might work.....

It won't work with 1125. Search for other threads about restoring/fixing a 1125. You need a firmware made specifically for your model.
Thank you. I couldn't find the firmware for it anywhere. Do you happen to know any sites where I could find a copy of it?
Thank you!
a few comments/feedback about 1.5 EVO: (my installation is still vanilla EVO 1.5, just installed some games like Gun Bros, BFIA HD, Adrenaline 6HD and some puzzle games and Opera Browser)
-often "locks-up/hang" when I leave it on standby overnight or for extended periods of time
-sometimes screen has a feel of lag when you swipe
-Opera, when playing Flash Vidoes often locks-up the Tablet...I need to either press the RESET button or hold the power button for 10 seconds
-BIGGEST ISSUE is, WIFI. It opften forgets the WiFi NW even though it shows I am connected. I had to manullay "FORGET" the SSID, turn off the WIFI, turn it back on and re-scan. I then had to enter the WEP/WPA/WPA2 key again so that the tablet can regain access to the WiFi.

I think you have already found them, but here it goes:

I have never had these lockup/freeze problems using mine. Have you replaced your internal card by one above 8GB by any means? If so, this can be the source of the lockups. Mines has a 8GB Class10 microSD now and works fine. These problems with WiFi are well known and happens in very ROM for any Kyros. One way to prevent or at least improve it is setting "WiFi Sleep Policy" to Never, i.e. WiFi will remain always on. If you wanna save battery, then I suggest that you use AirPlane mode.
Thanks lfom, I did not replace the internal card, still a 4GB card as I don;t dare open the tablet since it is still covered by warranty. Would you think a reflash is needed? I'll also follow your suggestion to set WiFi Sleep policy to NEVER.
Anyway, this EVO 1.5 was a far cry from the stock FW. It rocks! I have Market and can install a lot more apps. I can do almost anything with it now compared to the stock FW. This CFW did a lot and I now use my TAB more frequently compared to when it still was in stock FW condition.
