I doubt this would work as the device is not rooted. Besides, I'm returning the device, which ONYX had the audacity to say that "it doesn't have any problems", as if a crooked screen is not a problem! I'm definitely not trying another one as I don't believe that it will be any better and that's sad because Android ereaders are great and I love certain features of it (like Moon+ integration with Dropbox)

I'll probably be going with a Kindle or Kobo Aura HD / Kobo H2O unless a decent Android reader comes along.
