Hi porkupan, thanks for your effort, great work!
Just some notes, hope they are usefull: 1.) It's not bad to select "Home" as default action for home button. You'll still be able to access ADW via Bar Shortcuts: just tap the top bar et voila 2.) For European users there is no need for the Russian keyboard or dictionaries. I also removed Coolreader and ebookdroid. The dictionary folder can be simply deleted before running flash_reader. But for the apk packages the sdcard/tmp/checksums file has to be altered... 3.) There is a bug: when going to Settings/Accounts&sync, tapping "Add account" will crash the reader... Also, I managed to make ADW and latinkeyboard services stop working, not sure how, but hat to restore-set and re-root. Maybe it was because I disabled "Background data" in Accounts&sync, don't know... 4.) I disabled wallpaper, settings/animations and set white background for the Launcher. IMO this should be default for eInk devices. 5.) I'd like to set white background for menus, but don't know how yet. 6.) I removed Coolreader, but it is still present in Bar Shortcuts. When trying to remove it, Bar Shortcuts crashes. Cheers, Andi |

md5sum for all files in updates and tmp directories should be listed in tmp/checksums. If you remove a file from there, you need to remove its checksum. Quote:

I also installed Android Pit Market App which suggested to update Bar Shortcuts which I did, but it still crashes. Do you know the place where Bar Shortcuts stores its settings? The reason I removed Coolreader mainly was because it did not show any books / documents! All folders show are empty! So I reasoned that CR is simply too buggy... But I really like the fact that the T1 has Android The first app I installed is http://www.androidpit.com/en/android...oid-Chord-Book One of the reasons to buy the T1 is that I want to put music lead sheets on it... Next, I gotta find a way to install "ireal b" which unfortunately is available in Google Market only. Any ideas? Maybe buying it via emulator and then somehow transfer it to the T1? Gotta try this: http://www.slatedroid.com/wiki/index...ket_For_Slates Last edited by uboot; 11-09-2011 at 04:03 AM. |

Strange, for me the Bar Shortcuts has been crashing from the very first time. Every time the T1 boots, it tells me that, just after asking what Home action to do.

The two biggest issues I can see, however, are: 1. We're missing the kernel modules dm_crypt.ko, dm_mod.ko, twofish.ko, twofish_common.ko. These are all REQUIRED by ASEC. I've been trying to get this fixed, but so far have been having an absolute hell of a time getting a working 2.6.35.3 kernel development environment up and running (kernel modules need to be compiled specifically per device). 2. Init.rc has no declarations/mount points (or whatever) for ASEC. This can been seen pretty easily by comparing the init.rc of the prs-t1 to an init.rc of any ASEC enabled froyo device. This is an easy fix (but is still pointless without the kernel modules listed above). EDIT: Also, for those asking, the Google Account/Sync crash appears to be due to a missing GoogleServicesFramework.apk. The majority of the Google Apps in general are missing in the stock PRS-T1.

I found out why barshortcuts crashes!!! The /data/data/com.coinsoft.android.barshortcuts stuff belongs to root which makes it read only.
That folder gets preinstalled via minimal-root. I deleted that folder via RootExplorer and reinstalled barshortcuts et voila - belongs to a proper app user id now and does not crash anymore. Or well.... still crashes sometimes, but not _always_ when editing the shortcuts.... |

After some time with my rooted T1, I'm facing serious flaws that bother me:
After a full shutdown/reboot, things start getting buggy: Barshortcuts and ADW launcher refuse to start and some settings like those of Coolreader are gone. Pressing home, I was able to fire up ADW manually and it does work now, but Barshortcuts won't anymore and AndroidPit App as well. They just "stop unexpectedly". Is there a way to track this down? Error console? System log? Haven't found any. Please help!! |
