Viwoods

[Gormagon]

In another thread I asked: "Maybe we should start a Viwoods thread?"

Well, here it is.

And to have some content to begin with I just quote myself again from the same post in the other thread:

I've bought [the Viwoods AIPaper Reader] last year and really like it. For the AI button I disabled the opening of the AI feature, tough. I've clicked it too often by accident.
With the Keymapper app I was then able to refresh the screen with one click and go to Settings with a double click.
Pay attention to the firmware. Viwoods made changes which diabled the remapping of the buttons in firmware 1.3.4 although it works again in 1.3.8. Also adb commands weren't working in 1.3.4 anymore. For 1.3.8 you need a special software from Viwoods to make changes via adb on the Reader. This software is available for Windows, Linux and Apple.
I've contacted Viwoods multiple times via e-mail and they usually responded quite quick and also sent a download link for the mentioned software.

To add something new: I also bought a generic cover for the device from Shantime, which is quite nice for the ~12 Euro I paid. I added a small magnet on the right place and now the Reader goes off when I close the cover and wakes up when I open it. The Folio cover Viwoods offers is in my opinion much to expensive, after all it's just plastic.

I presume that what they did to ADB was to make it a bit non-standard somehow.
I can think of a few ways that they could do this.
If what they do for Windows uses an .inf file please post or PM it.
