You can root the stock rom if you want and then copy from my rom for example the google framework and google apps, in this way you will be able to add more functions to your tablet.

if you use a gapps pack and you want to perform after a factory reset, the gapps will mess up the tablet interface

Thanks, found a gapps pack. Gmail works but market crashes upon startup - ...stopped unexpectedly. Tried clear data but no joy. I found the pack on another site. How might I find the right google files within your ROM?

this is the first gapps pack that i used
http://www.mediafire.com/?c95iicwc6d7uwas
the only problem with it was the fact that when you trie to perform a factory reset the main menu dissapears, if you can cope with this, you can try to use it.
my advice, look in to my rom, and search for the same files that you see in this gapps pack, any other files that are nor present in my rom but are present in the gapps pack can be ignored (gmail can be downloaded from market)

DONT FORGET TO SET THE PERMISIONS FOR EACH FILE THAT YOU COPPY (use file expert from this topic http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum/arnova-7c-g2-android-firmware-development/useful-stuff/ which is the version free that still had the mounting option.)

your screen myght not work anymore
to get in the fastboot mode reset the tablet, connect it to the pc, wait till you see the flashing light or continuos, and then press the power and volume key minus, in the same time, if you don`t get any result, that means that the tablet is dead.

Chances are your battery has moved slightly and dragged the screen's ribbon cable slightly out of its socket. I suggest you might take the tablet to bits and reseat 4 connections - the screen ribbon, the bottom panels connection to the motherboard, and the 2 white plugs. There is another thread about taking it to bits. If you need more info let me know. I have 2 of these devices in bits right now so I have built up expertise around disassembly etc.

cheers , stripped it down and it was the ribbon, taped each one down as i put it back together, crap design really..

was fairly easy stripping it down once i realised it had 2 screws in the end under the little round rubbers Cool ..doh..lol

was easy to unclip the other ribbbons and unhook the black cable to insert the lcd ribbon then tape it all as i stuck it back

big thanks

Re 46 - after so many tries to get it into safeboot on my home PC, I set up the SDK on my works laptop, gave it a try and the 7CG2 went straight into fastboot! Luckily I had a copy of your testv3 ROM with me - loaded up recovery image, reset cache, installed the rom off the SD - works a treat!

I'm happy with the V3 rom, especially with the subsequent GPS improvements. I don't really need more, but worth an ask - was the V3 your last rom or do you plan to release a final version?

i don`t know yet, i will try to compile a new version with some little additions, but at the moment i am not in the mood to start testing 😀
i also will receive this day`s the 7c g3 and i hope to make a port for the g2
i am quite limitted also because of the system partition which is limited to 120 mb, and i can`t build bigger rom`s than 120 mb
