Downloaded Advent rom from official site and their drivers but still cannot. Dunno if i am best placed to advice - as a just got my tab. It knows nothing about ADB and will treat the Vega as a USB Mass Storage device. Safely Root ADVENT Vega Easy Fast Secure. DOWNLOAD NOW. ADVENT How-To: Root ADVENT Vega. Using a standard USB cable. Most Advent Vega users chose to root their tablets. Rooting the Advent Vega brings numerous advantages and perks. Aside from getting a performance boost, rooting the Advent Vega also extends its battery life.
As we all know the Point Of View (POV) Mobii Tegra 10,1' is basically the same hardware as the Advent Vega. However, there is one very important difference when it comes to software - the USB-detection. If you update the POV to the newest FW 1.07.4, it will not be detected under Windows XP. FW-updating is still possible via USB (since the device has its own mode for that) but nothing else. Which means you will not be able to put Paul's awesome custom ROMs on your device! I tried several methods to solve this problem but to no avail.
With the original POV-FW this simply will not work. Thanks to the German Android-Hilfe-Forum (XN04113 pointed it out) and instructions found at Mario's TinyLab I can give you the following advice: - The original POV-FW does not support normal USB-operation. POV themselves said so. (English text in the box.) - To enable USB-support you have to flash on an Advent Vega FW. (Currently v1.08.) - Immediately after flashing the device Windows XP will recognize it properly.
(Other Windows versions I cannot confirm.) - Custom ROMs can now be flashed on the device as described in the appropriate threads. These instructions worked for me without any flaw. Reflashing the device in case of a warranty claim should also be no problem. Hope this will help some of you!:P.

Hope this will help some of you!:P You cannot use ADB with the Mobii ROM by default because it's in USB host mode. You could use the POV ROM then apply the USB mode switcher from here. ADDENDUM: After flashing the original Point of View FW back on the device and doing some more testing I can confirm the following: - Re-flashing is no problem! So in case of a warrantee issue you can reset the tablet to factory settings. The USB issue is not related to a flaw/bug of any kind but was obviously done deliberately by POV. (Read the statement in the link of my OP.) - The Advent Vega FW offers the same functionality - but including USB - and seems to be no better or worse than the POV FW in any other respect. Conclusion: For now there is no good reason to keep the Point Of View FW on your device.
What you could probably do is install ADB wireless and just use that to install clockwork mod. With clockwork mod on it is really easy to install custom roms and application along with all the other useful stuff like nandroid backups you can do with it. Just to quote this, I have run my vega in USB host mode since it was available and never had any problems applying Pauls mods due to use adb wireless. There is a simple (and free) app available in the market that allows all adb communication to be done over wi-fi rather than USB.

What I've done a couple of times:. Install POV firmware. Install VISIONary and apply TEMPROOT twice(!).
Install the USB switcher and switch to slave mode. Enable USB debugging and flash the MCR (Add-On) ADB wireless is another great option I've successfully used.
Easiest is to install the Advent firmware and go from there. From MCR r7 (and up) you can use clockworkmod, which works perfectly for me. So, there's actually a lot of options for a POV Mobii user:P.

Is my device in NVflash mode if 'APX' is shown in device manager tree? Hi mate, seems to me that your device has been recognized by OS the only thing you need to do is to install drivers. But just to clear in step by step: to enter the recovery mode you have to connect your charger to the tablet connect PC with tablet by USB cable. You need to shut down your tablet before doing procedure. Hold back key and press and hold power button.(tip.hold back key when you press power button) Done correct you will hear the sound that there is a device connected to windows. After that go to device and manager and right click on APX and install driver by using have disk option.(you need to unzip driver).
Go to support page and find USB driver there regarding of model you have.Hope I've helped you. Thank you my friend, I've manged to solve my problem. I found USB driver on some other site, cant remember which one, and point that APX to update driver and at first the system notified my that cant find proper driver at this location. After that i was really mad and second time pointed to driver path but this time only on head folder and BINGO, driver found and installed succesfully. I installed VegaBean ROM from XDA and it works great. I managed to get in NVFLASH mode but its really difficult because of holding buttons for exact time period.
Thanks again!
