I'm trying to load all the ROM : prestegio, odys & you ROOTED room ... they all boot up and work with my Next 3 (only 2GB internal), but the ROM are for 4GB internal so all my boot screen are f$ckup, specifically the 1st boot screen but the next one are fine ... the LATEST ROM of all is the prestegio one and look like they have promised Froyo update ... hopeful Next 3 will release the Froyo one first, since there web page now has the Firmware update, but it end up at "comming soon" ... thanks donaldj83 for your hard work

Pmp3084b rooted with market

thanks bro oh and btw....... I GOT IT

Prestigio PMP3084B ROOTED WITH MARKET im uploading it now its the exact origional firmware just rooted with market if you wanna clean it up just use titanium backup to remove the system apps hey i have a question for all whos watching as i said b4 i dont like the boot screen think we can get it back to the origional android one i have no idea as to how to do that but ill google it later when i have time ill have the link here in about 10 mins

.....

ok heres the link http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K7273SCB
to install rename it to update.img move it to the device unplug the usb and itll promped you if you wish to install hit yes let it do its thing

i know i had to first use rkbatch update to origionaly do the first update to the prestegio rom from the nextbook rom but after i compiled it i didnt need too so first try just moving it over if that dosent work then use the rkbatch method when i have time ill play around with the Odys Genesis one but for now have at these 2 puppies

i gotta go deal with crazys now

Nice work. I was struggling on getting PMP3084B system.img data without downloading it directly from device - data is encrypted and sadly there are no tools to decrypt it.
Is it possible to update only system.img on device, without touching other partitions? I presume it should keep risk of bricking to the minimum.
By the way - there are some not used data in /fonts/adobefonts/.svn directory, removing it should free up a bit of space.

well...i havent ever done it that way but i do beleve there is a way of doing that as far as not being as much as a risk of bricking it goes i think its about the same bc the system.img is the main image file that it runs off of

diablow · May 16, 2011

And what steps are required to get Market running, without custom system.img? I suppose copying vending.apk won't work?

The easier way when you got it Rooted is to use Absolute Root and in there you can download Bootanime and change it on the fly ... don't know if android 2.1 use the same bootanime.bin those ...

hey that odys firmware how was that was it newer than the other 2 or is prestegio the newest basicly is it worth cracking or am i wasting my time

oh hey on the bootanamation on the newest prego, presto, somethin) rom i cooked up i removed it so after it goes threw its first screen it goes to the android default (much better) ill fiddel with the boot.img in the next few days to get rid of there other 2 screens (again i dont like it lol) as far as next3 going froyo there download page has been like that for months (trust me ive been hovering every day) i think we may have better luck with one of the other companys prego or odys but it dosent matter bc eather way well have to go threw this again to root and market and cleaning

...also...
theres still a few desktop icons left i donno how to get rid of them when making a new rom so just hold and drag them to the can itll make things look nice

...added tips....
also some sugested programs startup manager (the one that looks like a blue arrow wrapped around a clock) the only thing i keep running is android system, rockchip service, and calibration) and also find a task manager with a widget option set the security settings to low so u can see every thing once u hit kill all itll go black and then your desktop will popup with 140megs available any other tips ppl feel free to throw them out

Again, thank you for doing this! I am sure plenty of people appreciate your effort as roms for these devices were until now considered "unhackable" and plenty of people were trying to find a way of doing it. I am currently using the rom uploaded in the previous link (before "cleaning") and it is a major improvement: market works and the system is rooted. There is one issue though: I seem to be unable to deinstall/delete stock apps either through manually deleting them (using for example rootexplorer) or using 3rd party apps (including Titanium Backup). Could this be a problem on my device or is the rom still unable to support this? I am now going to install the "clean" version (great idea), and am looking forward to unlocking the potential of my Tablet. Cheers!

when you open titanium backup itll ask for root rights make shure you press YES then goto.... the center tab... think its backup any how once you have a list of apps press on the app you want to remove then youll see uninstall and other options thats how i did it also keep your eye on the market let me know if it stops on you i meen im seeing on mine (granted ive done a ton of stuff so its probably me) but any how see if it stops downloading for you like itll start downloading then disapeer like you didnt try to download any thing any thing

Concerning, Titanium Backup, the method you explained is exactly how I tried to do it, however, the apps are still here. I am currently looking at the clean version of your rom and its basically what I wanted to do so its fine now.

I'll be sure to report any problems with the market, however I doubt I will be using it too much, since I got used to applanet.

Just one question: do you know if the default ebook reader (now removed) was just a "repackaging" of another reader or custom software? I am trying to find a good reader which would be equally fluid and support the (only) two buttons the tablet has.

Hello everybody, I have the Prestigio model and I came here searching for a better rom solution, which it seems I've found

donaldj83 said:

First of all, thanks for fixing this rom!

Concerning the ebook reader, the program included is FBReader, and I'd recommend everybody to just get and install the latest version (it's a free and open source program). I don't know which version is included with this 2.1.2. update, but the original version had a very old version of FBReader (0.6.x), and it was not upgradeable (complaining the newer version was signed with a different key and needs uninstallation) nor uninstallable (being part of the system image) which drove me crazy...

I guess manual install of FBReader is a better solution...

p177 · May 17, 2011

Donald, the ebook reader apk doesn't work for some reason, unable to install it. (scratch that)

I tried FBReader and its OK, but lacks the hardware button compatibility. I find page fliping with tapping a bit problematic with the touchscreen being pretty unresponsive, and prefer buttons. Furthermore, the original Prestigio reader is much faster and responsive than FBR. FBR has plenty more options and capabilities though. Is there any way to edit FBR apk to make navigation with next3/prestigio multipad hardware buttons possible?
I am currently using moonreader+. It supports tablet hardware buttons, but has a bit clunky interface.

Update: I just installed the provided ebook reader. It seems it couldnt Install because I had newer version of FBR Installed. Thanks, donaldj83!

An issue Im having with the firmware is that it seems partially rooted, with NAND still locked. This means that I can't mount system dir as r/w. Do others have it like this?

Already tried to do it with rootexplorer, was unable. The terminal line doesn't seem to help either. Can anybody else confirm they have full r/w system access?

The market runs fine btw.
