Apr 29, 2012 - THIS FIX DID NOT WORK - BusyBox doesnt seem to be comunicating with Superuser and Root Explorer Try to download the app 'BusyBox Installer'. The Coby Kyros 7015 was mentioned, but the 7015A was not officially mentioned anywhere on the thread so I started looking elsewhere for information. Eventually I came across two forums, the 'Android Tablet Zone' and their sister site dedicated entirely to the 7015/7015A 'Kyros Tablet Zone'.

Coby Kyros bricked tablet
A while ago I bought a Koby Kyros Mid 9742, and rooted it by using LiveSuitePack, but then I started getting problems with the screen like red flashes if I moved it in a certain way (Kind of like screen tears) So I got it replaced. And they have given me a new tablet. But this time it is a different model number 'A37LG' - They said this makes no differance at all it is just something to do with manufacturing, it all looked and felt the same when it was turned on.
But then I tried to root it, it said it did it perfectly, but when they Splash screens dissapere at the boot, nothing happens it just stays black. I think it is bricked? But I cannot find a way to go back to default settings - using recovery mode didn't work for me and just does the same thing (Black screen on boot). I've also tried using another IMG on an SD card to reformat and reset it to that firmware.. but still with no luck, I'm wondering if anyone on Reddit can help me?
Things I have tried: Rebooting many, many times. Restoring to an old firmware - didnt work. Factory resetting - didnt work. Trying to re-root it - didnt work.

So my aunt bought a tablet that has android on it, but no play store. Anything I could do about it?
She bought a Coby Kyros that has android 4.0.1 on it. The tablet has most functions that come with Android, it doesn't however have a play store. It has something called GetJar that let's download apps, but it is very slow, and has very bad apps. Is there anyway I can do anything to fix it? I am able to log in to Google play through the browser but it wont let me download anything. I already downloaded the play store .apk but it wont read it. It doesn't even have an option to install from unknown sources. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
