I just bought this tablet on ebay for $100 and figured I'd give it a shot. I am not sure if this thing is a Gen 1 or a Gen 2 device because it has an ARM6 clocked to 800Mhz but it does ship with Gingerbread. Coby doesn't even have it listed on their site. My end goal is to be able to get CM7 or some other AOSP based ROM on this thing and overclock it to 1Ghz to speed it up.
I tried using the z4root v1.3.0 method without success. It gets to the "Acquiring root shell" screen and crashes.
I tried to manually root it using adb in Linux but could not find a writeable partition to copy psneuter and busybox binaries to. I tried to push them to the /sdcard and /storage partitions and then execute then from there but then could not chmod them afterwards. Weird, right?
I don't have a Windows machine other than and XP install in VirtualBox but the problem is that the USB passthrough doesn't see the tablet so the SuperOneClick method won't work there either. Can someone with a 7120 and a Windows machine verify that this method even works on this tablet?
I did get the market installed but that's about it. Anyone have any ideas?
