I've got a issue with my Arnova 7G3! I did something stupid after installing BusyBox and then removing BusyBox it now shows full memory with no apps installed, and each time I go to do a reset, it goes to a picture of the Android with an exclamation mark.

Is it best for me to send this device off to ArnovaTech for repair or is there a way of re-installing the stock firmware?

Many thanks for any information, and any guides on how to are most welcome.....

Hi Globula_nebula,

Many thanks for the info, but after reading both links, I've decided due to health issues, I'm going to send it off for repair, unless as I've noticed in your signature, you do a re-flash service. Are you in the UK?

Well, it's thanks to @globula_neagra for helping me flash my trusty, well used AN7G3 on Monday!! He worked on it for a couple of hours remotely and it's now running as good, if not better than before!!

If there's one thing I've learnt from my mistake, that's not to uninstall BusyBox!! It's now back to playing with the Tablet and Linux for me, and find some more apps to fill this device up with.....
