There are no known issues with this build, but that does not mean that there are no issues. I will not be held responsible for any bad things that happen if YOU install this on YOUR device.
All the builds are currently for the 8GB version. If you have a 2GB version take EXTRA caution and be sure you want to be the first to try this.
What this ROM does
This ROM is based on the latest Archos firmware, but adds the following:
- Google Apps
- To get Contacts Sync working, you will need to install googlecontactsprovider.apk after flashing the ROM
- Access to Google Market
- Roots the tablet
- This will give you complete control over your tablet, and will allow apps to run as superuser, the root user. This can play havoc on your device if you aren't VERY careful and pay attention to what apps are asking for what permission. To help fight illicit apps asking for su I included the superuser app in this build. This app will pop-up when ever an app asks for su permissions and you can allow or deny and there is also an option to always allow or always deny the app.
- ADB works
- It removes the additional apps provided by Archos to free up space (if you want them back, Appslib is still available so you can reinstall them)
