TRY GOING TO SETTINGS THAN GO TO SOFTWARE UPDATE SEE IF THERE IS ANY FOR IT THAT MIGHT HELP PLUS YOU NEED A PASSWORD TO CONNECT YOUR PHONE TO THE WIFI

If you dont have the phone (SIM) in the tablet and Android 2.2 it probably is impossible to register the thing with Google and therefore you cannot usr the market place.

SI!

As posted to another person, download this .apk file and install it on your A70 (It must be running 2.2 froyo firmware to work, if running 2.1 you need different .apk).
It'll give you Google Market, where you can download Adobe Flash Player that updates itself... i've had 2 updates from flash since Dec 25th upon getting this.


Link: With Archos 70 Internet Tablet, you need to download a specific version of Adobe Flash Player from Google Market since it runs Android OS. And A70 doesn't come with GMarket, rather Appslib, which doesn't quite cut it.

Luckily someone has made a neat little .apk file thath as Google Market, which lets you download GMarket and download/install all its apps/games/etc on your A70.

Just download the following .apk file and install it on your A70, afterwards download Adobe Flash Player from Google Market. However, this hack ONLY works on 2.2 froyo android OS, so make sure your A70 firmware is up to date.

I'd also recommend installing Dolphin Browser HD as it seems to provide a more refined flash browsing experience coupled with the Adobe Flash Player.

Do you have Android 2.2 on the tablet as this and above are the only versions that allow for Flash player in a browser. As you donot have a market app you will need to install a workaround such as the one below.

If the battery has been charged, and you've tried turning it on with the power supply attached, it is dead. Send it back.

Use a pin to press the reset pinhole on the back

could you tell me the android release you are using?

It's usually loaded as a pdf on the phone for you to access via a computer when the phone is plugged in via USB

Sounds like you will need to reset the Archos back to it's factory settings. When you do this any data/apps etc will be wiped from the system - Remove any external devices you have attached - Remove if applicable the external SD card - Press and hold the power button until the ARCHOS banner is displayed and then release it. - Press the power button twice (like a mouse double-click) while the banner is still displaying. - A white Recovery screen should appear within a couple of seconds. - To move from one option to another, press the power button. To select the highlighted item, hold down on the power button. You'll want to select the Format System option.
