Also, for reference...changing the Davlik VM heap size definetely increased the responsiveness of the device...i'm not sure why it was set to 128MB for stock, seems rather large. New settings: windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150 (should help with GUI navigation/redraw) dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m (definte performance gain) wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=160 (to help battery life) |

@LiKuiD, I am waiting for your tutorial (a new firmware would be better) on how to do the face lift of my PE . Looks like now the only obstacle is how to gain Android Market access without another device. |

WARNING BE CAREFUL! These offsets and sizes are from the update script but run at your own risk. Code:
flash_erase /dev/mtd5 0x00100000 48 nandwrite -s 0x00100000 -p /dev/mtd5 ramdisk.maint.gz.crc ramdisk.maint.gz.crc can be pulled from your update. You will need to get flash_erase and nandwrite on your device as they are only in the recovery. If you can't pull the binaries out of the new ramdisk let me know and I will pull them for you.

Here's the utilities.
http://kronarq.freehostingcloud.com/flash_erase http://kronarq.freehostingcloud.com//nandwrite and the maintenance ramdisk http://kronarq.freehostingcloud.com/...k.maint.gz.crc And now I am gonna get some sleep. I'll take a look at those other tablets roms and see if I have any ideas on the Market front tomorrow. Last edited by kronarq; 07-08-2011 at 01:13 PM. |

before I do this. I suppose the tools are android tools? where should I copy, under system? or anywhere on the sd card? can I do this over root adb or should i do it from busybox on the unit?
does the fact the partitions are mapped not going to bork my device even worst? |

Possible way to install custom dictionary
There were a few questions how to install custom dictionary, Lobotom1 comes to mind.
As you can see below dictionary oxc_dictionary_eng.db installed under /system/esi/etc/dictionaries There are a few ways to expand on that: - we can try simply add another one with the same structure: just one table Words - we can substitute stock one with new one - using adb and sqlite3 we can just (re-)populate this table with whatever info we want Is anybody willing to expand on that? C:\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb shell $ su su # cd system cd system # cd esi cd esi # cd etc cd etc # cd dictionaries cd dictionaries # ls ls oxc_dictionary_eng.db # sqlite3 oxc_dictionary_eng.db sqlite3 oxc_dictionary_eng.db SQLite version 3.6.22 Enter ".help" for instructions Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";" sqlite> .tables .tables Words android_metadata sqlite> select count(*) from Words; select count(*) from Words; 74115 sqlite> .schema Words .schema Words CREATE TABLE Words (_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, word TEXT NOT NULL, h omonym TEXT NULL, header TEXT NOT NULL, definition TEXT NOT NULL, phrases TEXT N ULL, phrasal_verbs TEXT NULL, derivatives TEXT NULL, usage_notes TEXT NULL); sqlite> select * from Words where word="yes"; select * from Words where word="yes"; 73694|yes||<b>yes</b> <arsp>/yes/</arsp> |▶<b>exclam.</b> <b>1. </b>used to give an affirmative response: <i>"Do you understand?" "Yes.� 34;</i> ■ expressing agreement with a positive statement just made: <i>� 34;That was a grand evening."

I got my pocket edge today from woot, installed this firmware and it went on fine, tried everything I could to get some sort of google app to work with no luck (not connecting to google servers).. tried rooting it with Z4Root as suggested and, wow, think I may have bricked this puppy to an extent, I can drop an update.zip onto the card and get it to do a software update (tried reinstalling this 2.2 update), but it just hangs on the final stage of bootup flashing POCKET EDGE with 4 loading dots.. anyone had a similar issue and have any suggestions of what I can try?
