It won't work with 1125. Search for other threads about restoring/fixing a 1125. You need a firmware made specifically for your model.
Thank you. I couldn't find the firmware for it anywhere. Do you happen to know any sites where I could find a copy of it?
Thank you!
a few comments/feedback about 1.5 EVO: (my installation is still vanilla EVO 1.5, just installed some games like Gun Bros, BFIA HD, Adrenaline 6HD and some puzzle games and Opera Browser)
-often "locks-up/hang" when I leave it on standby overnight or for extended periods of time
-sometimes screen has a feel of lag when you swipe
-Opera, when playing Flash Vidoes often locks-up the Tablet...I need to either press the RESET button or hold the power button for 10 seconds
-BIGGEST ISSUE is, WIFI. It opften forgets the WiFi NW even though it shows I am connected. I had to manullay "FORGET" the SSID, turn off the WIFI, turn it back on and re-scan. I then had to enter the WEP/WPA/WPA2 key again so that the tablet can regain access to the WiFi.

I have never had these lockup/freeze problems using mine. Have you replaced your internal card by one above 8GB by any means? If so, this can be the source of the lockups. Mines has a 8GB Class10 microSD now and works fine. These problems with WiFi are well known and happens in very ROM for any Kyros. One way to prevent or at least improve it is setting "WiFi Sleep Policy" to Never, i.e. WiFi will remain always on. If you wanna save battery, then I suggest that you use AirPlane mode.
Thanks lfom, I did not replace the internal card, still a 4GB card as I don;t dare open the tablet since it is still covered by warranty. Would you think a reflash is needed? I'll also follow your suggestion to set WiFi Sleep policy to NEVER.
Anyway, this EVO 1.5 was a far cry from the stock FW. It rocks! I have Market and can install a lot more apps. I can do almost anything with it now compared to the stock FW. This CFW did a lot and I now use my TAB more frequently compared to when it still was in stock FW condition.

Dunno, I know that these lockups while using the tablet are very rare with mine, but the first unit I got had the same problem and it turned out to be defective...
After lots of testing, including chaging WiFi inactivity to never and then back to "when screen is disabled", and reflashing, I have noted that WiFi consumes all the battery even with the screen of (standy mode). When I turn WiFi off before standby, all seams to be ok, even after 24 hours, the batery remains ok.

Ramlib, I was having lockups on my tablet for a couple releases. However, I noticed they went away when I stopped using other launchers. The default launcher hasn't locked up on me. The Go launcher locked up often so I haven't tried it again since v1.5.
I also had battery drain problems since release 1.3 but it got resolved by configuring the wifi settings and also running juice defender in normal mode.

EUREKA! I forgot to mention I installed GO Launcher. I removed it and voila...no more lock-ups! I also installed extended controls to control Wi-Fi on /off.
Sorry lfom for the trouble....turns to be a fault in GO Launcher (as far as I can see).

What kind of wifi configuration do you mean?
I already tried changing wifi sleep to "when connected" and "When screen is blank (dont know the name in english).
Thx in advance.

I went to WiFi Settings -> advanced, when screed is blank...etc as you mentioned. At about the same time, I also installed juice defender to shut off the wifi when my screen goes blank. I'm not sure which one fixed the problem but one of them did.
