I wouldn't dare, still reading and lurking, hopeful it can be replicated. Having the market would be fantastic.

Another observation on the androidID, after trying to login to gTalk on the IQ without success, I found that the android market on my PC emulator stopped working Anyone wants to run market on their emulator and advise?

I need to finish the laundry (I know, I know, back to normal life after all), but after that very unexciting work I'll be back to reading the PDN stuff I found at slatedroid and decide which FW I'll try. Here for those who are feeling bored right now and do not want to come over and do the laundry for me (you bunch of lazy dudes): http://="http://www.slatedroid.com/i...?topic=8993.0" Help me decide which version I should try.... I am undecided between Version 2 or 3, if at all. |

After pushing them all in my IQ, the internal memory is now almost full ! I have only something like 35 Mo free… After installing Aldiko 2.0, only 20 Mo… |

useless anyway. The IQ is name sensitive regarding the FW it accepts. It rejected the Pandigital FWs (the modified ones) as well as the OP ones.
(but if anything at all was proven today, then : I had the b...s ) Last edited by aceflor; 12-30-2010 at 11:57 AM. |

Even if you succeeded in flashing it, you would be stuck at the white screen at the beginning (Yes...I have tried that one as well! ). I would be a matter of setting the hardware properly. I think the PDN and IQ have some differences that prevent one's FW to work on the other.
But... here is another idea. I have used the stuff for the NookColor to make it work. However, I think you could use the google alpha experience stuff to make it work as well. All you would need to do is to push the files (Minis the Framework.jar) and copy the build.prop I have included in my zip. It could theorically work Feeling adventurous? After that, clear data of the market & download manager + the dalvik cache and reboot. |

Hehehe... that's the spirit! It takes young explorers to find out about the limits of the machine and boldly go where no one has gone before! Anyone else got the Pocketbook Widget crashing all the time since they installed apps? |

Once I kill it and the other PB Processes system performance improves noticeably. The Reader app works fine and so does the dictionary; the problem is the library indexing feature. It eats up resources as if it were running on a good OS. |

FWIW I got the Market to work by
1. Adding my Google account via signed_YouTube.apk 2. Inserting an andriodId borrowed from my phone Code:
adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.googleapps/databases/gls.db "update meta set intvalue='YOUR_NUMBER_HERE' where name='androidId'"; 3. Pushing a modified build.prop Code:
adb pull /system/build.prop sed '/nocheckin/d' build.prop > /tmp/build.prop echo "ro.config.nocheckin=no" >> /tmp/build.prop sed 's/^.*ro.build.fingerprint.*$/ro\.build\.fingerprint=verizon\/voles\/sholes\/sholes:2\.1-update1\/ESE81\/29593:user\/release-keys/' /tmp/build.prop > build.prop adb push build.prop /system Edit: Attention: Do not push package.xml as per the pre-edit instructions! The build.prop hacks were taken from the Nook Color Script. HTH Last edited by Coredump-EE; 01-03-2011 at 03:24 AM. |

Anyway, I have not done the GE thing yet, we had a lovely dinner out yesterday evening and a lazy but very nice day today, if it were not for the terrible news from Alexandria it would have been just a perfect day. I wish all of you a very happy year 2011, mostly lots of good health and lots of love, because those two things you really cannot buy, trade or force. I may try the fix later next week, but not before that, tonight I am watching the retransmission of the New Year Concert in La Fenice, then I will need my beauty sleep and tomorrow I am going to the New Year Concert here (so happy we managed to get the tickets, we were quite late this year) Gotta go, concert just began! |

The biggest problem so far was getting root to work for the applications. The provided su always began crashing after the initial setup. |

In the process of downloading the java stuff to give this market hack a go, you said you were looking for a way to 'improve' this? What's wrong with it?
I'm asking from the position of; if its working correctly and worth me pursuing this? |
