Just bought the coby kyros mid 7015 yesterday. Went to the Coby website and wached the "video help >> how to update MID7015 firmware" Downloaded the " firmware update for the MID7015 (update.zip) " to my computer... my apple macintosh macbook.
The video says to make sure not to unzip the file, but the mac automatically does... i try to compress it.. The file transfers, to the SD card... when I do the reboot i wipe the data as instructed, then apply SD card... I get a response E:signature verification failed ..... I tried calling Coby for support, they basically took a message and will call me back in 24 - 48 hours... very crappy.. also noticed in the paper quick start guide, it says to install the memory card with the metal contacts facing upwards towards the screen... WRONG, no wonder why people are having trouble with the SD slot, jamming the thing in the way they're told prolly... haha.. any way I need help! I dont know if the problem is from opening the zip and compressing it, or if its a problem with the tablet... The kyros is supposed to be "Compatible with MS Win XP, Vista, 7 or higher and Mac OS or Linux in mass storage mode" What is mass storage mode? Thanks for any help or input! I really want to like this thing... i'm off to a bad start
