Uberoid is a HoneyComb style Android operating system especially designed for budget Android tablets, the kind of tablets you can find on E-bay for $100 or so.
The HoneyCombMOD ROM has been stripped of all the bulk and unnecessary junk, which slows down the performance of your tablet, and enhances the overall user experience while giving a lovely looking Honeycomb UI.

Frequently Asked Questions:
My tablet is not listed, can I just try anything without the risk of bricking it
* Yes, if you have the factory firmware of your tablet you can reflash using that
Uberoid keeps flashing, but the tablet does not boot to Android
* Then you must try another model, this problem occurs for example when you use a green led script for a blue led device
I have a M009S Blue LED, option 2 works but I don’t have sound.
* Blue LED 1.2.3 uses another audiodriver, it’s option 7
I have a M009S Blue LED, option 2 works but I can’t use the touchscreen
* There seems to be models around that have a different TS driver, a uor_615, use the TS script fix version

- 1. Open the Market and press the home button to return
2. Go to Settings Applications Manage Running
3. Press “Market”
4. Press “Clear cache” (do not clear data)
5. Press “Force stop”
6. Return to “Settings Applications Manage Running”
7. Press “Google Services Framework”
8. Press “Clear Data”
9. Press “Force Stop”
10. Start Google Market, it must give an error
11. Reboot, once back Market should work, if it gives an error it could need another minute to work
12. Test the access, search Skype on the market, it should return 400+ results including the original Skype and google’s apps like maps / streetview / docs and skype

No idea, if you have the original OS give it a go and if not you can reinstall the old system if it doesn’t work
hey in uberoid i had to choose model 1 but i chose a different model, i chose 8, because that one didn’t work…is it safe to keep the other model number that worked even though it wasn’t for my maylong m250??? is it?
the loading screen worked and everything
Hi, eventually the HoneyCombMOD Uberoid worked for me to install, however I’m now getting stuck on the following screen:
Complete Action using, then there is 5 options:
ADWLauncher EX
GO Launcher EX
LauncherPro
VTL.Launcher
wmtLauncher
However the screen does not respond to any taps and the select button in the middle does not work either, PLEASE help on what I should do.
Thx
If this is happening, then it is the WRONG option. Should not get stuck. If touch screen is not working then it won’t work. I installed Uberoid 10.1 on a Maylong M-250. Supposed to work with option 1, but, through much trial and error, eventually worked with option 33! They change these tablet’s internals so often, it’s amazing that anything works at all. You can limit the process by only choosing options that are the exact screen measurement of your tablet. Pay close attention to the opening screen on the changer program. Took me forever to figure out that there are more than 11 options. Ha!
