Allmine universal update

A friend of mine got new full size edge and asked me to install latest upgrades on it. I decided to take this opportunity to update allmine to a single installer for both pocket and full edges. Here it is, attached to this post.

Improvements:
  • Works on both models producing normal update animation (without chilling video effects on full size edge)
  • Correctly sets up serial number on full size edge
  • Installs fix for frame buffer permissions to allow user applications (such as orion viewer) to display on eink
  • Correctly restarts device when installation is finished

Installation instructions from original pe-only version still apply. In brief, just install it right after installing ermine update. Installation itself takes about 3 minutes, but first restart after that takes longer than usual, maybe 5 minutes, do not panic.

It also shall be quite safe to install this on top of previously installed allmine just to fix frame buffer permissions without dealing with command line.

All usual disclaimers apply - your mileage may vary (wildly, depending on what you already have on your device).

Update 2013-03-12: Created new version that includes fix to allow applications to read input from hardware buttons on reader side, and input from wacom pen.

Additionally includes fix for native browser on EE to prevent crashing on javascript intensive sites as described in this post.

Version bumped to 0.5.
