In this days I've intention to try to install Android on my Aura HD but I've some questions:

Installing Android on SD Card there is no danger to brick the device, right?
It is possible to use a real graphical bootloader in the future similar to "Kobo Start Menu for example" with two options: 1 Boot to Nickel 2. Boot to Android
What is the better image for my Aura HD all are done by angor00 but one has a new kernel but is in Russian (these Russian what hackers ) that should not be a problem as there are instructions to return to English...
There is a list of compatible apps? I imagine, for obvious reasons, that games as Angry Birds doesn't work right? Firefox works? In general browsers works better that the Kobo browser that is pretty much unusable ?
How is the hardware support? The light works? And the could be set using OSD? The WI-FI is OK? The Battery usage? Deep Standby works (only the ook cover is shown but the device is totally dead as typical for an E-book)?
There is a battery 5% off notification? Using CoolReader is the thing I miss more! I'm reading a book then put the device on standby return to it after a day and the device doesn't start... I'm hating it

Thanks!
