Hi all,

This is my ROM for Arnova 7G2 ( and only this )

Full Root
Full EXT4 File system
3G support for huawei internet key with usb host cable

kernel 3.0.8+ is able to support ext4 native and external ntfs disk, I've changed only boot.img recovery.img and system.img for to have a full ext4 system and good support for external ntfs disk.

I've hack the xml system for 3G support and chenge some parts for to use huawey internet key

This is 1.0 release, I'm working for add Bluetooth dogle support and only this.

Sorry but no have time for more implementation

After installation with RK29update don't forget to press back reset button on the tablet for 5 seconds or the tablet don't start

Download link

Bye

Hello Fenice,

Thanks for your update on the Arnova 7 G2, glad to see you are still active for this machine.

Also thanks for your method to properly implement full ext4 partitions on Rockchip based firmwares, I'll be using that on more of my custom firmwares Wink

Cheers.

This is an intermediate version before Bluetooth resolving problems

Replaced the software update with Rockchip Batch Tool v1.5

Insert ClockworkMod Recovery 5.5.0.4 Full Touch, tested backup and restore from internal memory or MicroSD and tested the system update from zip file

Added support for OpenVPN (tun.ko)

Added support CIFS (cifs.ko and md4.ko)

Add some apk:

Cpu tuner to handle CPU clock
RebootMenu to Reboot system in recovery mode
GScript Lite
Youtube

ROM Links

Is It possible chose Update option

On the first boot, will start the ClockworkMod Recovery

Wait 15 seconds to be able to use touch screen and them select system reboot

If you performed a reset, ignore the errors, the first time is correct.

If you chose Update no error appear

WARNING

If you performing Restore option with Rockchip Batch Tool, after initial setup you will need format userdata manually

At the right bottom you will see a sdcard icon , touch it and chose format.

If you run an Update will not need format internal memory

Ciao
