[ROM] Watery Kyros v1.2b Custom Firmware for MID7015

[mpass057]

You might try re-loading the ROM. Nand backup 1st. Be sure to wipe Dalvik and then do a factory reset. Then flash the ROM. I've installed 3 different ROMs. This is by far the fastest, most stable ROM available.

Good luck.

I have done this 3 times but I think I'll try again. That's one of the cool things about this is you can do this all you want.

have you tryed the latest honeycomb themed rom its alot better then it used to be and tipstir had been releasing updates almost weekly that just get faster and faster i run with 86mg free and with everything closed 97m free

I just installed the latest and the update and it's waayyy better than before. I don't want a rom built for a phone because this is a tablet and this has less phone apps than the others. It is now my favorite. I'll have to learn more about programming so I can troubleshoot Watery. Thanks for the Honeycomb suggestion.

What other ROMS are there available for the Kyros? You meantioned 3 others i see the CM is to much, i just want a file that i can tell my tablet to just flash not have to worry about terminal commands

does watery kyros work on mid 7015 1.6a? my kyros came with this update already installed.

I just wanted to point out that Watery has become the Mod that I consistently come back to. Excellent work, l_n. I do find, however, that the ClockworkMod found at http://teamtelechips.naobsd.org/experimental/20101212/recovery.COBY7015.img.zip to be a little more stable. I find that the version included with Watery freezes up from time to time. (The one I link to does have Home/Menu functions reversed from yours.)

Hi um... will this delete everything i have on my tablet? apps,videos, ETC

@Moussa: Yes, you have to back up with clockwork mod into an SD card.

Remember, Watery v1.2b has an issue w/ JIT. If you like l_n's excellent Watery ROMs, you may find v1.2a better, although it still will need Browser from v1.1 and a replacement for Gallery such as Quick Pic.
In either case you should use ClockworkMod to have a background of your current install and something like Titanium for back & restore of apps.
Goodluck

Hey guys, I believe i achieved the perfect combination for now with watery kyros, I installed the 1.2a version, applied the music+gallery patch, then the gpu fix, then, from the. zip file of the patch, I made a new one with the 1.2b browser (just replaced the files in /system/apps with the browser app) and then installed via clockwork. it works perfectly, no lockups happened and the the whole system is way faster and smoother than my previous stock/rooted one. Thans a lot!

Is this ROM still under development? Where can I find a 1.2a zip?

@sillas999 ... Do you have it up to download. Ive been running 1.1 Since for ever. I have tried the other roms versions but had issues so i just went back. thanks

 

[esarandon]

is there any way to mix this wonderful rom, with Faenza icons??

Is this ROM still under development? Where can I find a 1.2a zip?

I guess not? I don't see a 1.2a zip either. I just tried 1.2b but it started crashing/freezing far too much to be usable. Damn shame, it looked good. Guess I should try 1.1??? Any tips/updates here???

For 1.2a see
http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/coby-tablets/12891-where-find-watery-kyros-v1-2a.html
the second post's link still worked this morning

l_n's thread has 1.2b but with a little Firefox copy and paste you can find 1.2a at the same site as 1.2b:

Is this also a flashable version? or should I just keep searching?
