My Firmware 2.1.2 recognized only as 2.0.0 ?
Dear all,
I have a brand new IQ 701 which has from factory the latest --I think-- firmware existing for it (that is: D701.2.1.2.2...). But when I try to install any appk needing 2.1 or higher, it says that it is impossible to install because my device is running firmware 2.0.0 (?!). Can anyone tell me why? And how I can fix the problem? Thank you Pablo |

The version 2.1.2 is not equivalent to Android 2.1.2, but the firmware is 2.0 eclair, if you would install an apk who require 2.1 you must root your device and edit build.prop

So, the Pocketbook IQ 701 has no possibility at all to access the Android Market? Neither now nor in the future? I thought this issue was going to be solved... What a pity! Pablo |

If you're not comfortable with them, what remains is the alternate markets; Slideme, Amazon, etc. Or sites like FreewareLovers. Plenty of options out there, really. And the smarter app developers are the ones that *don't* limit themselves to Google's outlet. |
