MID7127 Recovery.img's (Stock, CWM & KTZ)

the_kwa · May 14th, 2012, 11:03 PM

Here are all the Recovery.img's I know of for the MID7127.

Stock = Coby-Stock.img
CWM V4 = Coby-CWM-V4.img
CWM V5 = Coby-CWM-V5.img
KTZ = Coby-KTZ.rfs

All these can be tested in Fastboot mode:

Code:

fastboot boot "Recovery.img"

All these can be flashed in Fastboot mode:

Code:

fastboot flash recovery "Recovery.img"

"Recovery.img" = what ever the name of the .img file is.
(KTZ Recovery is NOT a .img, it's a .rfs)

Once you've flashed a new recovery, MAKE A BACKUP, IT WILL SAVE YOUR ASS!

Hi,

I've just acquired a mpman 827 aka Coby kyros MID8127 and I wonder if those recoveries should work ont it ?

Do you know how to boot in recovery without using an application ? Cause if the tablet doesn't boot anymore, it should be great to boot the recovery directly ^^

And last question, you link the KTZ recovery. Have you already tried one of their ROM ? I'm not afraid to pay for a ROM if it works great, but I can't find a lot of feedback about those ROMs...

Thanks !

yes, they should work

do you have android sdk up and running? "fastboot boot <recovery of your choice.img>" will work

i've tried them, sadly they are the only thing out there. They work, but i don't agree with him making people pay for his stuff. There's a ton of devs out there doing much, much better work and not asking for a dime. Just not on our tablet. He has zero competition so he can do what ever he wants...

thanks !

Hope that helps

Thanks for your very appreciated answers !

Yep, I have android sdk up and running, but I wonder if fastboot commands can be used at any time when the tablet is on or if it needs a correct initialisation.
So if the system doesn't boot anymore, fastboot commands are still working ?
Cause, if I'm not wrong, on my Desire I have to boot in fastboot mode to run fastboot command :/

on my 7127, volume up and power boot into fastboot mode

Kiiv · June 13th, 2012, 07:07 AM

Hum, I've already tried this combination with no success :/
Will try again tonight when I'll be at home. I've also read something about need of connecting power supply to enable it... But I don't know if it was for this model.

Thanks.

Ok, I've tried again last night and "power + vol-" works ! Don' know what I did first time...

Really nice video, it helps a lot to understand the entire process. Thanks a lot.

So, serious things begin ^^

Hi !

It's me again

Do you know if is it possible to get the last ClockworkMod version to work with our devices ?

Do we need to compile them from sources for our devices ?

the_kwa · July 1st, 2012, 11:26 PM

don't know for sure... i just found all the stuff to get mine working and compiled it all together so others wouldn't need to dig as hard as i did.

i'm not smart enough to write codes to make this stuff work lol

downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 3.211s]
booting...

Trying to get the stock recovery image. I had rooted and disabled some things, and somehow I did a factory reset without thinking, and some things are just gone. (such as, one video i watched said go under "about device" and click on "install from sd" . I no longer have that option under "about device". There are other things also. I am just trying to restore it to stock condition so that I can make a backup and start from scratch. Any help would be greatly appreciated. (btw, the links above for these are not working). Thank you!!
