Bluepanther Thunder 7" Marvell Tablet with GPS, Android 2.2

Well I'll assume you are asking if its a wise choice. The tablet Isn't bad at all. Works well as a car gps and it's great as an ebook reader. Video is good too (dough not so much out of the box , after doing the tweaks in this thread it runs really smooth ) . I also like that seems abit more sturdy than other android tablets and it doesn't over heat so much you can cook an egg on so thats a plus (probably due to the fact that it has a heat sync on the processor not like almost every other chinese tablet + the vent in shape on an android )
A down side of this tablet is the lack of gpu so no 3d games and also no flash 10.1 as its armv5.
Hopefully as soon as I can mount those damm ubifs images I can star work on a custom rom and maybe even android 2.3 .
 
I use google navigation. Didn't really need to try anything else.

Ok so I discovered the Leader webpage and am now trying to contact them about the latest rom. Apparently what I have isn't the g10 but rather the gm10. Haven't found out what the difference is.

Hi

I got one of these tablets and it seems to be bricked it wont turn on, I get green power light but screen is black. Any one know how to flash firmware on this tablet ? I got firmware and put on sd card power up but screen stays black any ideas?
 
Well did It come bricked or did something happen to cause this ?
Close the tablet and hold down volume button while u press power. If u get a blue screen then a screen saying google it means u can get into recovery mode.
Extract the rar file from this thread with the firmware and but all the files on the root of the sd card and then go to recovery mode.
 
I got it bricked or dead. I tried the sd card holding volume up or down and pressing power button screen stays black I'm thinking the screen could be broken as I have never seen anything on the display. As I have not warranty I did pop the case off and the ribbon cable is attache.
 
Oh yes ppcwarez is up. The bloody thing was down since I got the tablet. Got a warm fuzzy feeling inside.
 
Guys can you help me? I installed SDK but when I connect my tablet into a PC with USB cable, the windows XP installing the removal drive, but not the tablet. USB debugging switched on, but it seems my PC doesn't see my tablet, what can I do?
 
I have tried for hours to mount the ubifs. I passed the ubiattach error 22 by using, after loading nandsim module, ubiformat /dev/mtd0 -s 512.
That created /dev/ubi0 but not /dev/ubi0_0. Also a lot of errors from ubi showed up, snippet from /var/log/syslog.

For all the testing I used a virtual machine with kunbuntu 10.04 I used previously for something else.

:-( :-( :-(

Any ideas?
 
Forgot to say that the ubiattach seams successful on the terminal:

sudo ubiattach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 0
UBI device number 0, total 2048 LEBs (264241152 bytes, 252.0 MiB), available 2024 LEBs (261144576 bytes, 249.0 MiB), LEB size 129024 bytes (126.0 KiB)
