How to install Honeycomb A2.1 on Viewsonic G Tablet-Part 1

[achieveinmath]

Worked perfect, great explanation. In the 2nd Link the rar file has been updated so the name will not be the same. (as of 11/25/11)

These two vids rocked, man! My keyboard is so much more responsive now! I'm on whatever the latest versions were from your links. I'll be checking them again in a month or two to see if there are anymore updates! I love how thorough you were! Thanks again!

How do I get into recovery mode?

Also, I tried to continue the steps, but when trying to apply interanal update.zip a message in yellow appeared "E: can't open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory) Installation aborted. I presume this is bc I am not extracting it properly and therefore, it does not exist... Any help appreciated!!!

[allandavie]

Firstly, i'm new to this stuff and trying to follow step by step. After downloading the 2nd link from your instructions I'm having a problem extracting the update.zip file to root of g-tab. First of all, windows could not recognize the file, so I installed BitZipper to try and extract the RAR file? When I try to extract with bitzipper I only see "removable disk F" - I do not see internal SD or anything else... What is the root of internal memory? Disk f? Again, i'm new to this - please help! thx

Hello, I just wanted to.thank you so much for your video. My G tab is boss now.

Hey your video has helped me a bunch but i have run into one little difficulty. Your second link leads me to a link for alpha 6.0 not alpha 2.1. The 6.0 alpha doesnt seem to work, so i was wondering if you could direct me to the alpha 2.1 file perhaps?

[kenqui232]

@ethanwasham the newest alpha build does not require nvflash. If you have the custom recovery installed, then flash the newest build as you would with any rom available.

[kenqui232]

Respond to this video... go into recovery and wipe cache. Then reboot

[naenae48221]

when i reboot into recovery mode at the end, it wont go past the birds. what do i do???

[kenqui232]

Respond to this video... wipe cache in recovery and reboot.

Hey when you put Honeycomb on your g-tab does your camera or usb to computer connection work?

[MusicEqualsEmotion]

running bottle of smoke alpha 4.1 its the best!!

[diazkyubi]

you know u can do it without NVFlash right? and the build is A3.3 now

[kenqui232]

yes I know this. I got rid of my g tab a while ago and didn't get a chance to update my tutorial on the newest build. I am on xoom now@diazkyubi

[TheSkotter]

This would be a great video if I could see anything on your screen:-). Any chance you could re-record with a clear screen?

[kenqui232]

sorry I sold i t a long time ago and got a xoom. :-\ @TheSkotter

Geat tutorial, one question though, how do I know which one to use, 1.1-3588 or 1.2-4349 based image? I am using Calkulin's G-Tab v1.1 right now with CM Recovery v2.5.1.1-bekit-0.8. One more thing, on the second link it says after 2.2 no NVFLASH is needed. Does that mean I can just update from CM Recovery to Honeycomb?

[Djapatos2]

Thanks for the vid

I just have a question

I NVflashed before, which means i already have the NVflash folder ready with all the files, however that was a long time ago when there was no 1.2 based

so now my question, after i download and extract the 1.2based zip, do i just copy my old Nvflash files in the 1.2 based folder, and i am all set, or wat?

[kenqui232]

@Djapatos2 I would download all new just to be safe. wouldn't hurt at all.
