[stanlawable]

Awesome!!! so simple, my g tab is Sweet!!!!!!!

[kiwithe3]

@bsguieb5

Format SD-card, if you want it to remain within the tablet. If not, all you'll have to do is, in CWM, delete userdata, cache and, under advanced, delete dalvik-cache.

[TheAfrothunders]

what is the web site that you got clockwork and TnTlite from

[bsguieb5]

I currently have TnT Lite 4.20 but I installed it like 5 months ago. Now, I am planning to give this tablet to my sister. How can I erase all the data or restore it like to factory setting or fresh tntlite 4.2 without my data. Should I just redo the install CWM and install tntlite 4.2? Appreciate your reply

[justinfroot]

there was like no noise

[justinfroot]

32,582 people fuck XOOM and bought the Gtablet

[svs94061]

This was very helpful, thank you. I decided to buy a gTablet based on this video.

[MasterB4]

when copying CWM to your tablet you said Root. Root of which, the SD card or the internal memory of the tab?

[Futbol20011]

i have question. Should i replace the update.zip file and recovery file. Because when i want to install them into the internal SD memory of the Gtablet it asks me if i want to replace it. All of it is done via USB connection.

Thanks

[MrZeros0000]

Any suggestion? please IM me on AIM if you can help me at yoshi8rice

[mikee286]

how do u get rid of the little phone icon in the right that came up with tnt lite? 

[baroknglv]

Hi.. I'm in the market to buy (my first tablet) this Viewsonic gTablet anytime soon. But after watching your very informative video to upgrade, It occurs to me if I should first install the Honeycomb 3.0 (Android 3.0) first or should I install as you've instructed on your video the ClockworkMod and TnT Lite 4.0... Appreciate your quick response and Thank You in advance. Good job on the video...

[gbelzer]

Two questions -- one- I tried to do this before downgrading from 4349 to 3588 and, after installing the file, could not progress further. I did some searching and saw that I needed to downgrade to 3588, so I removed the ClockworkMod file from the root, downloaded the downgrade to 3588, and attempted to install. Didn't work -- got the booting recovery kernal key image and nothing else.

Let's see I solve this problem. Would this work with CyanogenMod7? If not, what should I use?

[uswirelesss]

Man... At 14:03... There is no point to hide a password for "Edgenet" WEP encrypted access point. It takes about 5 to 10 minutes to hack WEP.

Other than that - good tutorial!

[squirrelc2001]

hey . ive been watching your video on how to get the clockworksmod to work on the g tablet and for some reason i do everthing u say to the t . But evertime im put it in recovery mode it stays on that screen and it also has a addittional line that says " Booting recovery kernel image " ive tried both ways to install it but nothing is working . Can u please help with a video or a message . I hope i added a good amount of info for u to help

[MJYebba]

@squirrelc2001 I'm having the exact same problem. Have you found a resove for this yet?

[whiteshark27]

Mine doesn't install clockworkmod. It shows Recovery Key detected then right below that it says Booting Recovery Kernel Image and never moves past the bird screen.

[squirrelc2001]

@whiteshark27 did u ever fix the issue cause im having the same problem

[whiteshark27]

@squirrelc2001 yes, I used nvflash to install a new "factory" image then the vegan instructions worked.

[squirrelc2001]

@whiteshark27 ok i used nvflash 1.1 and 1.2 after that i still didnt have clockworkmod .... what am i doing wrong now , i thought when i use the nvflash that would install clockworkmod

[squirrelc2001]

@whiteshark27 still not working for me ... so after u used nvflash what did u do next

[josefidias]

I NEED HELP. I followed your great video to install TNT lite, and everything worked until the las reset after TNT lite is uploaded. When the machine comes on again, I get a screen with a blueish honey comb that takes about a minute to bring the next screen ( with a lock on the side). How can I ma TNT lite to come on and get rid of the honey comb? PLEASE HELP!!! Jose

[Mr963258741963]

HELPP!! for some reason when i went into clockworkmod at the end and hit installzip thing it didnt istall tnt lite so what do i do

[4x4forlyfe]

When I tried to copy the update.zip and the recovery folder over, it said there was already an update.zip and recovery folder on the tablet. I've never rooted this before. What do I do?

[MISHAVASSER]

@4x4forlyfe - u need to edit the command file to remove comments "--"

[pacman81]

thanks pal



[tbounma]

Mine keeps reinstalling CWM update.zip! Why is that? Can anyone help? I've done this several times and its the same thing!

HELP!!!

[marlo916]

if there were widgets or apps already installed on the stock ROM will it all still be there when you boot up TNT?

[barackuse]

great video, I just wish you would have added links to where I can download the files.

thanks

[kuso24]

i'm trying to find out which rom is the best to install in the g tablet. you seem to have knowledge about these roms and how to install them. what one do you think is best. also do i get them at xda. thanks for any info

[Ryansc1000]

I did everything you said. it said tnt lite just like yours but it downloaded really fast but nothing happend??? what do i do?

[popeyester]

how did you root this tablet????

[ShrinkingNinja]

Don't appologize because we can see you. Kind of nice to have a face with the voice.

[olddawgsrule]

Thank you for this!

I was having some troubles and it was something basic.

You're video showed me where I went wrong.

[bleorgbot]

"yikes."

lol

Thanks for making this!!

[ncnsam]

worked great! thank you for posting this.

[Ihatefemme5]

can you send me the links please

[williamssm]

Thanks! Worked perfectly!

[Grandmasterjord]

Does this work the same for vegan?

[ehunyadi]

@Grandmasterjord yes. :)

[canman505]

Great video I just ordered my gtab! One question, Is it necessary to root the device with zroot before doing the steps in your video?

[ehunyadi]

@canman505 I didn't have to.

[leapyearjoy]

You should be getting a small percentage form every one of these sold. Great video, now I want to buy one.

[ehunyadi]

@leapyearjoy I wish! lol

[akhiljhaveri]

Fantastic Video - I got mine at Woot and had NO IDEA how to use it - THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

[ehunyadi]

@akhiljhaveri You're welcome! I love woot also!

[SodomGomorrahWaDC]

Thanks SO much for this. The online guide was confusing. You made it more clear!

[ehunyadi]

@SodomGomorrahWaDC I'm glad it helped!

[SodomGomorrahWaDC]

It's Phil Margera! Haha you look just like him.

[ehunyadi]

@SodomGomorrahWaDC I think I'm better looking... lol. But yeah, I get that sometimes. lol.

[OBSCENE1316]

Hey im having trouble getting tnt lite on my g tablet the file is not showing up when i download it' its not a zip its a file what do i do??

[ehunyadi]

@OBSCENE1316 Go to xdadevelopers and ask for help there. They will get you up and running.

[reynex90]

thank you very much best how to video i found so far!

[ehunyadi]

@reynex90 Awesome; thanks!

[agesmusic]

Dude worked like a charm! Def liking your vids and subscribing! lol

[ehunyadi]

@agesmusic Thanks!

[iammebane]

ok after i did download cwm... it did not reboot into recovery... it just boooted as normal,...... any suggestions

[ehunyadi]

@iammebane Sounds like CWM didn't install properly. Check out xdadevelopers for more info there.

[iammebane]

ok where can one get clockwokr mod for the g tablet

[ehunyadi]

@iammebane xdadevelopers 

[bvoeck]

Great Video. installed 4.4 and all is good.

[ehunyadi]

@bvoeck Glad to hear it!

[kingocto]

Just installed tnt 4.40 works the same way! :-) :-)

Thank you soooo much!

[jeffreymbarry6606]

I have run into an issue. Upon re-boot, I get the Recovery Key Detected message, but Clockwordmod does not open, the gTab just continues to boot as normal. Thoughts?

[keedom]

@jeffreymbarry6606 I had the same issue; I bought the gTablet off the Woot deal. Should have known better that Woot sells all refurbished items! Looks like my gTablet was pre-owned, there was already a "Recovery" folder and "update.zip" on the root folder. Update.zip was 138MB in size, so it certainly was not CWM. Anyways, I tried to copy the CWM files and for the 'Recovery' folder copying I let Windows "merge" the folder - big mistake. Delete and then copy - that will fix it

[cooter007]

You ROCK!!!!!

[battalionofone]

if you load clockworkmod .8 would it be redundant or dangerous to load clockworkmod recover from the rom manager? or is that two different things?

[drizzt5555]

WOOTERS UNITE!



[sirano71]

Hey thanks I just follow your video and is working like a champ, but tell me there is a update in lite so I just do everything all over agin to do the update.

[4x4forlyfe]

Does the TnT Lite just run on top of the stock OS, or what? And is TnT Lite your favorite OS to use vs VEGAn, Zpad Clean, and CyanogenMod? And thanks for these videos. They're seriously amazing.

[ronmchandler]

Ed, the GTab was on sale yesterday on Woot.com for $279. Many of us ordered one. Will you be posting another video soon on your current ROM configuration and tips? I've watched almost all of your others, but noticed you haven't posted anything in about a month. Please don't quit. We need your expertise. Hope you will still help us. Alot of us are wanting to know what your recommendation is for the current ROMs available. Thanks for your assistance.

[MrSample]

the TnT Lite 4.3 installation instructions on XDA recommends NOT using ClockWorkMod, yet it seemed to work fine here. I just ordered a gTab device and haven't even tried to flash yet, so I'm a total noob. Do you think the warning is unnecessary?

[281raza]

I am getting this message "Sorry The application Dashboard Home (process com.tapntap.homne) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"

I tried power + volume but it didnt help. I want to go through the whole clockmod and tnt 2.4 update but right now I am stuck. Can you please help. Should I just go ahead and follow this video or return it to Amazon and do the upgrade with the new one.

[fidju]

thank you very much for this video! my gtab is in the mail, and i will be following this guide as soon as i get it out of the box!

[warrior92ish]

great video,now how do you go back to stock ?

[rvdown11]

Where do you download Tnt 4.2 and later? I have 2.2 now but i can't seem to come across any later versions of the zip file.

[BOLOE562]

thanks for the vid. i just installed this rom on my gtab. however, i noticed that tnt lite 5.0 just came out lol and i was wondering if you are gonna put up a vid for that as well? it looks a bit tricker to do since you have to flash back to 3588 first. a video of this would be awesome thanks.

[rvdown11]

Thanks for the video. The GTab is in the mail and I'm excited/terrified. I've never really done something like this with a product but after reading the Amazon product reviews, I'm willing to give it the college try.

[bigbillh77]

I bought my gtab off ebay so it had been 'worked on'. It works fine but when I try to replace the rom as per all the articles I get nowhere.

I keep getting the following message after a power+volup key combo press upon booting.

"Booting Recovery Kernel Image"

I've restored the factory image via 'factory data reset'.

Everything I've read say the CWM should load, but it doesn't. I'm doing something wrong so if someone could give me an idea, I'd appreciate it.

Bill

[Simru12]

Followed along with you and worked great... until I turned it on the 2nd time. ENDLESS BOOT. Please help

[THESHOEKING]

where do I download clockwork and tnt from?

[THESHOEKING]

WHERE DO I GET THE RECOVERY AND UPDAT.ZIP FROM? (LOST)

[ballingforlife14]

So i tried downloading this, things didn't work the same way as you did it. Though when i turned it on these colorful lines were streaming then it cam up asking for a google(gmail info) so then i thought everything was good. So i contiued on to get the full market system. Now it is telling me that it is unstable so i need to parition the data..but i don't know how to fix that. is there a way i can start over or somthing?

[ronbethmiller]

Thanx.... I bought My G-Tab at 3pm .I opened it at 400 pm. I installed clockwork and TNT 4.20 and 4.24 no problem thanx to you.... WOO HOO

[mcgoofy57]

First I have to say thanks. Your videos are the reason I finally pulled the trigger on buying a G tab. It was a breeze following your steps to install clockwork, but I don't know what you did to install TnT 4.2.0. When I tried installing mine it looked different than yours. The screen in clockwork never displayed the TnT Lite logo and on reboot it didn't display the Android logo. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[post3144]

Im thinking of going to get a g tablet. I watch netflix and hulu the most. Do you know if there is any issues trying view either of those sites?

[ehunyadi]

@post3144 I haven't been able to get Netflix to work on it yet, although there is an Android app coming soon. As for Hulu, it is restricted.

[gypsyman1967]

Waiting for my G Tab. I already have downloaded clockworkmod and TnT lite 4.20 . Thank you for the great videos. I'm like a 44yr old kid waiting for Christmas. thanks again

[ehunyadi]

@gypsyman1967 You're welcome!

[ProjectZro]

have you ever had trouble signing into your google account. it was working for me 2 days ago then i went to back it up to change roms and recovery erased itself. i restored with VZFlash and now no matter what i load i cant get it to sign into my google account. :-C

[ehunyadi]

@ProjectZro No problems with Google account for me.

[ProjectZro]

@ehunyadi thanks for the response. i figured it out well not really, but it finally let me log in after turnign it off for 24 hours

[Digitafolio]

Hello Ed,

Thanks for the video series.Can't wait to see what the rom looks like once you have it loaded. I'm using tnt lite 4.1. What are the changes? Are they using their own custom interfaces for the fix? The upside is I have 7 homescreens that rotate in a cube with labels (launcher pro) for each on i.e. Web Quick launch for desktop bookmarks, productivity, Utilities & Tweaks, News & Resources, Communications, Entertainment and an Executive Assistant.

[ehunyadi]

@Digitafolio I prefer VEGAN-Tab because it seems to run better on my gTablet than TnT Lite did/does. I don't know why; it just works better for me. The nice part about Android is that we have choices, so YMMV. :)

[gwkdad]

Yeah but you didn't post any links for the files...  :-(

[ehunyadi]

@gwkdad Go to xda-developers and look for the FAQ in the gTablet Android Development section.

[mlinder1958]

This was an awesome help for me as a noob to mod my g tablet. Thanks a lot! My only problem now is app market doesn't work right. Very few apps in it. I tried fixing it through setting but it still doesn't work. Also, where do you get and install Titanium backup?

[ehunyadi]

@mlinder1958 There are fixes for the market available on xda-developers. I bought Titanium from the market.

[electroplasm]

I have noticed that your gtab has little or now lag when it comes to using your touchscreen. I am using Vegan1.00 beta5.1 and my touchscreen seems to operate kinda sketchy. Some items I can tap on with ease and other items like the drawer launcher seems to take a longer press before it responds. Kinda like you used to have to press down on a resistive screen. Is this a software bug? Thanks.

[ehunyadi]

@electroplasm I have no lag at all; Vegan 5.1 is amazing and super-fast!

[electroplasm]

@ehunyadi Thanks for getting back to me. I figured it out after scouring XDA. My touchscreen needed to be re-calibrated.

Solution: place an empty txt file named "calibrate.txt" on root of sdcard partition. place gtab on flat surface and restart. dont move gtab for a few minutes after restart to allow for calibration. After calibration is successfully completed and tested for accuracy...remove text file.

Thanks again. :)

[TinaToujoursDebout]

@ehunyadi I am new to this where do I get the clockworkmod file from? I also wanted to know would you recommend this to a first timer like myself?

[ehunyadi]

@TinaToujoursDebout go to xda-developers and search for gTablet and clockworkmod.

[WantAdrioid]

Hey, Good to see a new video post!! I was wondering if you quit making these awesome instructional videos. Glad you didn't!!! One thing that would be nice to see is, From stock to any custom ROM with data backup using CM and Titanium backup. Maybe just the bare minimum user data and apps? I have yet to take my tab from stock + enhanced because I have SOO much data I don't want to loose. I am a little unsure what I need to backup and how to restore those files....

Great work!

[ehunyadi]

@WantAdrioid Go with a custom ROM. You won't believe the increase in performance!

[pnndo2a]

What's the advantage of using clockwork to add these ROMs as opposed to just rooting and putting the update.zip file in the root and re-booting? Great videos!!!

[ehunyadi]

@pnndo2a The advantage is being able to backup and restore not only the ROM but your data and apps as well so you can try stuff and go back if you don't like what you tried.

[furalrage]

You have to root device first correct?

[GottaLoveAlberto]

I was contemplating on getting an Archos101 'cause of the price, but seeing as it's never in stock at the $300 price I was looking at the G-Tablet. I honestly thought I had to do some amazing haxorz on this thing to get the stock Tap'n'Tap UI out and a Custom ROM in. Thanks for showing me the light. I'm definitely getting this with my next paycheck! :D

[jeffreyparke]

you could have picked "mount USB storage" option in clockworkmod to transfer files... you were so close.

[pahammel]

Vegan vs TnT. I have seen you use them both. Which one are you having the most success with?

[ehunyadi]

@pahammel I have preferred VEGAn Tab for my gTablet, but my wife likes TnT Lite. I have had problems with the market on TnT Lite, so I'm sticking with VEGAn for now.

[cortiz360]

'm buying one of these babies tomorrow.

Thanks so much for taking time out of your Super Bowl weekend to make these great informative videos for us!

cheers

[ehunyadi]

@cortiz360 You're welcome; good luck with your gTablet!
