I'm going on a huge mess.
I tried to downgrade to Dingo, following the instructions written below.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Download the Golden Update file for edge or pocket edge.
eDGe 2.0 http://www.entourageedge.com/support...ate.golden.zip
Pocket http://www.entourageedge.com/support...ate.golden.zip
2. Rename the file to "update.zip"
3. Place this file in the root (not a subdirectory) of a USB stick
4. Verify your edge/pocket is OFF.
5. Insert the USB stick into a USB port on the device.
6. While holding down the MENU and ROTATE buttons on the LCD side of the device, press the power key.
7. Continue to hold the MENU and ROTATE keys down for 10 seconds. 8. After 1-2 minutes you should see an "Updating software" splash screen. Because we are downgrading versions of Android in this procedure, there is a catch. The procedure above will not be able to completely update, and we will need to run the update procedure twice.
9. After the "Updating Software" splash screen has been displayed for MORE than 20 minutes, press the reset button with a paper clip on the pocket. On the eDGe, remove the battery and AC.
10. Once the eDGe/pocket is off, leave the USB stick inserted and while holding down the MENU and ROTATE buttons on the LCD side of the device, press the power key.
11. Continue to hold the MENU and ROTATE keys for 10 seconds.
12. After 1-2 minutes you should see an "Updating software" splash screen.
13. After ~15 minutes the device will reboot and will be running the latest Donut (Dingo) build.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I came regularly to the point 9.
But when I rebooted with the USB stick inserted and press the power button and the buttons and rotate down menu does not start.
Turns on the device, but is frozen with the first ball of the process and should not be illuminated later on. The blue ball of the trackball is lit, the reader e-book is written at the start page with the READ / WRITE / SURF.

Now I do not know what to do.
Someone can tell me how to fix or provide a link in the forum?

Thank you.
