Working on the tablet

Thanks for that, what program did you use to copy the flash_image, you need to use a file manager that asks for root, if not you will get permission denied....

Actually, just use terminal, use su and just type cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin/flash_image (i don't know why I didn't think of this before)

Pardon my ignorance, I am relatively new to the Android world have been a long time windows mobile user When you say Terminal what exactly do you mean?

Thanks for you time towards this!

is your tablet rooted?

if it is look for android terminal on the market, its by jack or jake something

 

[shanksv]

Not having luck. Now Terminal says cp not found. I used AndRootFile to copy flash_image. let me try a few more things and will let you know.

I got the recovery flashed and booted in to recovery. Sorry for the blurry image.

It appears there are 4 images that over-lap each other top to bottom. Also I am unable to make a nandroid backup as it says:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblkOp1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0#
#No such file or directory#
Can't mount /sdcard
E:Can't find MISC:

Rom Manager (Pro) appears to work correctly but rebooting to make a nandroid backup gives the same errors as above.

Also, using the Volume toggle for up/down in the list, it will jump from the top image to the bottom image alternately for each option.

Alright thanks, this is good news tho, I'll fix the mounting issues and post up a new recovery in a bit....


Edited: Does not have fixed display or button issue but should not have issues with making a backup or it might who knows

Also, you all need to check your PM box

Still getting the exact same error message as before.

Thanks so much, Razor! I will give it a try and let you know what happens.

 

[heystek]

I'm getting the Same error as justdroid

Here is another build to test
Download cwrecovery.img from Sendspace.com - send big files the easy way

I hadn't noticed that the tablet has no misc partition and hadn't build recovery to notice that, its possible that sdcard works fine now, if not I'll have to mount them.

btw, to make this thread a bit cleaner, I'll be updating the first post with newer recovery imgs from now on.

my mount give this:

$expot PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH
$mount
rootfs /rootfs ro 0 0
tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,mode=755 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw, mode=600 0 0
proc /proc proc rw 0 00
sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0
tmpfs /sqlite_stmt_jornals tmpfs rw, size=4096k 0 0

and more a couple of lines lol, anyone know a way to copy / past this ?

 

[razor950]

I need everyone with the tablet to run cat /proc/partitions in terminal and mount as well and paste both things together on here or on Nopaste and paste link.

I have an S7 and will help where I can. A little premature but would it be possible during ROM development to include the ability to have the S7 connect to ad-hoc networks? I have seen it done on a PanDigital tab with an Evo over at XDA. Keep up the good work!

Updated first post with latest recovery img as of right now.
Hopefully sdcard now mounts...

Edited: two recoveries on frontpage, please try second one first. (both will boot but you'll get sdcard missing on only one hopefully )
