i have so far collected $1 for all of my hard work here updated on 10/16/11

YES!!! thank you for trying, I'm afraid im nothing more than moral support brother. good luck.

So I just put the .img files onto the root of the internal memory? Then what?

How do I flash the img files? Tried Droid explorer, nada.

I've done the same... but my tablet rejects the updated.img file as invalid and offers its deletion

I think i got it going into recovery mode:
HOLD the Down arrow key and Press the Power button (connect it via usb to a computer prior to do this) now the screen is still black but the computer will try to install usb driver for it ... where is the usb driver ?? LOL

Hello, everybody!
I've been hunting for information about this tablet for some time and decided to stop leeching info and share what I got so far (not much but could be helpful). My primary goal isn't really a flashy ROM (no pun intended, neither about flashing nor adobe flash ), but a rooted device.
Here's what I know:
First of all, my tablet is sold by a different name, but is essentially the same device as next 3, probably a generic Chinese tablet. It is called Prestigio MultiPad PMP3084B:
XXX
All software should be completely compatible between these two devices, as far as I know.
As you can see, Prestigio has recently updated the firmware to 2.1.2. It still has a lot of bloatware (fring, facebook, etc) and cannot be rooted by usual tools, but includes SlideMe app market and an updated book reader (I have used it for a couple of days now and not much is changed from the previous build). If you nextbook users want to try a different firmware, you could try this one (or at least use it in future ROM cooking).
For some reason the links on the main Prestigio website don't work, so here are the links with working files:
XXX
The most useful thing for us should be the instructions and tools for flashing. The instructions given in the .doc files work 100%, both driver installation and flash procedure are fully explained, so be sure to check it out.
Another useful thing I found are the instructions for making a custom rooted ROM for rk2818 devices, found at XXX
I haven't had the time to try those out, but I found some info about people who made it work on various rk2818 devices.
Lets make this thread useful to others, share our experiences and try to unlock the bloody thing.
Edit: Unfortunately, the forum has a spam-preventing feature which doesn't allow me to post outside links before accumulating 8 posts. I will gladly send you the links through PM, just contact me. It would be nice if somebody with higher user privileges could then post them in this thread.

I'm glad to join your initiative, hopefully we can achieve something in this thread. Just one small correction: the screen is 8.4'', which is important as it makes this tablet stand out from generic 7'' tablets.

Hello I have a Prestigio PMP3084B whixh seems to be based on the same hardware as NextBook Next3. PMP3084B even has a secondary interface which looks exactly as the one on the Next3.
I'm trying to root my device, but had no luck yet. If this Next3 got rooted maybe there is a chance for me too. Any ideas?

But Prestigio has just release a newer Firmware Build than the Next3 ... i have saw the ROM on Odys Genesis and it's a better interface than the others two

[Q] Problem SDcard and Apps [XDAndroid FRX06]

Hello,
I have a HTC Touch Diamond 100 and I installed the "Froyo FRX06 XDandroid NEW system update" review in the post "[prj] [XDANDROID] [AOSP] [FroYo | GINGERBREAD] [31.03] System Update" and everything works fine except that it doesn't recognize SDcard applications.
There's no Error Message in the screen, is just that the system doesn't recognice anything in the SDcard. I put my apps in the folder: AndroidApps-> Other. I think it's not the common fault that I have read many people have "Waiting for SDCard error. For people who have problems with sdcard message, add this to your startupmsmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave" because for instance the phone let me save the pictures i've take with the camera phone or install and recognice any app from the market.
I 've Format the card with the HP tools after initial installation and then i had restore all the files in the internal storage.
P.S. Sorry for my possible spelling mistakes but English is not my native language

Keep in mind if you put the apk in anything other than the AndroidApps folder you will need to install them yourself. See THIS FAQ for further explanation. As far as the wating on sd card message you get when you are booting into Android, I get those all the time and have no problems with taking pictures. I would suggest that you use the full bundle from THIS post to ensure you have the latest. Unless you know what you are doing

Oh what A noob mistake xD I didn't know that apps in the "Other" folder doesn't follow the "typical rules" for instaling apps (i've come from previous releases of Android, Eclair specifically, and in that version it was only place in this folder to install apps).
I'm using froyo instead of gingerbread builts because HTC touch Diamond it's quite old and i don't know if the performance would be better or slower than froyo performace but if you recomend me to use that gingerbread bundle i would use it.
Thanks R^7Z.

Honestly, Gingerbread is "better" but it is alpha release at the moment. Yes, this means that there are quite a few more "improvements" to under-go! I only recommend it if you like the idea of Android. The latest releases for FroYo aren't bad but it seems there are a few hard instability hits it has taken since FRX03 (last time I really enjoyed running a FroYo build from the XDAndroid project). Since then, I've been playing around with a few things and builds to include but not limited to this new idea of CWM (clockwork mod/Gingercherry tutorial) which is posted in the neopeek forums. So, unless you've got an idea as to how neopeek variants work, it's suggested to stick with the XDAndroid builds...

I see what you say but honestly, right now, I'm looking for stability and performace, if you know that gingerbread build GBX0A have better performance (i supose that it's less stable because it's an alpha) than FRX06 i'll choose Ginger
Thanks again R^7Z.

[ROM]DocHoppyRom NEXTBOOK 7 Premium*updated DocHoppyRom Full On Rootv2.0*2/14/2012

I was working on a ICS based hoppy rom. Unfortunately I just had a catastrophic screen failure, apparently when my laptop bag fell last night, it landed with enough force to shatter the screen on my nextbook! Oh well. it may be a while before I can work on anything to further the version I was working on.
FYI- Due to work, my time is very limited for working on the next version of Hoppy Rom. I apologize in advance. The company I work for is
setting up new engine test cells in China, and my self and 2 other people are main points of support! again Sorry for anything new taking so long!
DOCHOPPY HAS BEEN SIGHTED (Other than on a DAYZ server...Stay tuned.
Ok I have decided to pass along what I have been working on.
Warning***
This is for the Nextbook 7 premium ONLY!

Major thanks to FINLESS BOB!!! GREAT HELPFUL GUY!
PRESENTING DOC HOPPY ROM
CRAMFS STYLE 3.0
AND
FULL ON ROOT v2.0
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for Bricked Tablets. This is known to work on tablet with SN starting with YF1011, and some YF1211.
First you will need to decide which version of the Rom you are going to load. The CRAMFS Style version has SU but you CANNOT write to the /system directory. This is a good all around Rom for those who may need SU but do not need to write to /system.
Full On Root is just that, you have full read write to the /system and can customize the Rom to your hreats content.
HOW TO INSTALL:
TO FLASH CRAMFS STYLE 3.0 Put the UPDATE.IMG file from the Cramfstyle Folder onto your SD card, while tablet is on and follow the on screen instructions.
After running the self extracting Zip file you will have a directory containing the following folders and files.
Drivers (folder)
CramfsStyle(folder)
FullonRoot(folder)
Log(folder)
Language(folder)
Readmefirst.txt
Rkusb.log
RkusbComm.dll
Setting.ini
RK29update.exe
TO FLASH CRAMFS STYLE 3.0 Put the UPDATE.IMG file from the Cramfstyle Folder onto your SD card, while tablet is on and follow the on screen instructions.
To flash Full On ROOT, Plug your nextbook into your PC via usb cable. Turn your nextbook over and with a safety pin or something of similar size, press and hold the reset button for 2 to 3 seconds.
Run the RK29update.exe
Select your Rom files via the boxes containing the .... And navigate to the correct directory for the rom you want to install.
Insert eache file in order according to the update tool.
Clear IDB. (this is like a lowlevel format for the Rom tool:
After the Tool says OK. Select Run. This will begin to load the Rom onto your tablet. It will go through loading and then checking the Rom install.
After the Rom loads and the tool comes back with an OK, patiently wait for the tablet to reboot, and load the new ROM. If the tablet is still connected to the pc via USB when the rom boots it will show the screen allowing you to select weather or not to turn on USB storage. Press the home key and you will be given a choice of Golauncher or Rklauncher. (go lock is a screen lock program.)
Enjoy the Rom!
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for Bricked Tablets. This is known to work on tablet with SN starting with YF1011, and some YF1211.
Features for both Roms:
Complete and correctly working market. It now correctly associates the tablet to your gmail account allowing purchases from market.
Launcher 3.0 as well as Go launcher ex. Launcher 3.0 was pulled from an rk2918 firmware3.0 update and put into this rom.
Google Calendar is now back and working correctly.
Original Email is back and working correctly.
Included Kindle App
Included Estrongs file explorer.
Both have SU though the Cramfs version cannot write to SW.
Removed Apps Added in last release and return to more of a original rom state.
Rom is pretty clean. And seems speedy.
Cramfs Style 3.0 Rom has 200mb internal Ram +/-
Full On Root 2.0 has 894MB of Free Internal Ram.

So freaking sweet, great work on RW!

I used Wendal's tool to decompress the cramfs file system.
As for the /system, Because the device uses cramfs, and based on everything I have read, using Wendal's tool to decompress the file system, make the changes, and compress is the only way I can see to be able to
customize the rom for the device. The image is rooted, but after the update.img is compressed, the /system file remains read only. I tested this using root explorer, but anything requiring su works fine. But all hope may not be lost, I was reading on a chumby forum someone suggested using mkfs.jffs to make it writable, but further down it notes that you would need to change the kernel (easy enough to recompile I think), to utilize a different file system. The boot loader would also need to be modified, something I am not ready to try and tackle just yet, I think I would be bricking my nextbook pretty quickly.
It is a start and I am actually learning a lot as I go.
Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.

I am definitely a long time user / cyanogenmod / aosp fan, but as far as ripping open .img files its definitely new territory, I tried to find an internal SD card like the nook has, to maybe dump it, but I cannot find such a beast. Any progress you make is awesome. So do things like root explorer work, just not on /system due to cramfs?

Correct, root explorer does work, but due to cramfs, it does not allow you to toggle to rw from ro on the /system.
Working on taking apart apk's and customizing and rebuilding and resigning next.

just flashed this rom and it works great!
How would I go about doing a custom boot animation or image?
... even if it means flashing a new rom from clean?

This is great. Thanks. The only question I have is why do I see so few items in Market? Does it have anyhting to do with compatability?

Calendar & Sync Access
First, thank you for your work.
Before I update by Next7P, have you included Google Calendar and Sync access in this update?
I use MyPhoneExplorer and will need calendar sync to work so I can fully use for business.
Thanks.
There is another method to get Google Market on the Next7P, I am a new user so I can not post the link, but google , forums Whirlpool net au archive 1756859
, very easy and works great, but cannot get sync to work.
Dan,

Thanks for the responses!
sgtfoo : You can use Wendal's rk29xx tool to take a copy of my rom image, or the original update downloadable from nextbookusa.com, and
unpack it. You then have access to the system directory in an editable format. you can go into the system folder /system/media and replace the bootanimation.zip file with another one. Just be sure the image format is 480x 800 and that the zip file has 0% compression ratio. After you make the changes, just repack .img file via Wendal's tool and reflash.
dodoclub : Not sure why. I have a full market. You might try clearing the data and cache for the market. My market shows pretty full, I.E. I got 31050 entries when I searched for facebook in the market.
Danno65: Actually that is something I have been working on. I can get my google calendar to sync, currently I am using a calendar from the market called Jorte, which works great, how ever, googles actual calendar.apk closes unexpectedly, I am thinking it is just a version problem with the calendar, but haven't had a lot of time to follow up on it.
FYI here is the link to Wendal's tool, which makes it much easier to work on the update.img file.

If you have any request or questions please feel free to ask, I will help anyway I can.

Thanks Dochoppy
Got one of these tablets for Christmass to replace an old broken tablet I use for work.
Google hosts our work email, so I still need to get Contacts and Appointments going, but I maybe able to side load them.
Noticed build.prop still has ro.secure=1. This prevents adb from having root access??

Calendar & Sync Access
DocHoppy,
I came across a post where the "Calendar.apk" and "CalendarProvider.apk" files must be in the "system/app" directory to work properly, I tried to copy these files to the above directory but found it to be read/only, will wendalls tool have to be used to get access to the directory?
Also, did you get your google calendars on your desktop to sync with Jorte on the Next7P, I tried but no luck.
Thanks
Dan
The updated image file worked great, thanks again

Thank you so much for your work in building a new rom for this thing. I am anxiously awaiting a new filesystem so we can have true root. How do we manage to recompile the kernel for ext4 support and change the /system fs?

Hello, first of all, thanks for your work!
I am having trouble loading this rom. it says there's an invalid image file in my sd card and if I want to delete.
Now, I don't know if my tablet is a never or older version of what you guys have...
Next7p
2.3.1
kernel: 2.6.32.27
build: v2.0.7.....
my serial is also different from alot..it starts with YF0511
any help or tips?

I would say the serial number would have something to do with it, check on the site for nextbook and see if your serial is in the same *batch* as ours, if the original serial is in a different group, im assuming the hardware may be slightly different? If so, you can always use his method to repack the original with root.

First off I would like to say that I was very pleased when I came across this thread from another one. I haven't flashed this ROM yet, but plan to. Thank you for your work on this as I have been searching the whole internet since I got this thing [4 weeks now] for some sort of custom ROM. It is hard to use this tablet when I have ICS on my Captivate and Vibrant. GB just isn't as cool.
One thing I hope we can work on is root access, so we then can use Titanium Backup. Then we won't have to manually reload everything when new releases come out.
With all that being said, if there is anything I can do to help, I would love to. Like I said, I plan on flashing this probably tomorrow or Tuesday. Thanks again.

For the record, I got titanium backup working fine on this rooted rom. it is capable. You just need to reboot after it restores a backup.

i'm new to android. glad to see rooted rom finally, keep it up!!!
i have a clarification, any improvement in the booting time? my device took 1min30sec (power ON to ready to use, for me, 90sec seem like not fast enough).

Good luck on improving boot time. And besides a tablet is best used when on all the time... try using the suspend state to quickly wake it. We're just starting with the early versions of this rom... give it time to grow.

Build.prop editing
Okay so observation:
Our tablet is not recognized as a "tablet" by the Android market, only and android device.
What prop would I have to edit in order to have us recognized as I tablet. I noticed this when:
I finally managed (through some internet tutorial before this rom) get the market working (the first version, not 3.1+). And when I downloaded apps (I'll use Minecraft Pro as an example) I noticed that the way mine looked and the way the tablet version looked via android market photos and Youtube, ours looks like an enlarged phone version rather than a tablet optimized version. What can I edit to fix this?

Flashed this today... so for it works great. Love the new boot animation. Great work and can not wait for future releases!

One thing that would be great on a future release [not sure if it is possible yet with out r/w], would be a bigger data partition for apps. Moving everything large to the SD is ok, just takes longer to boot those apps. A kernel that would allow voltage control app [like CPU Master] to work also. Just a thought!

[ROM] Androot-N7p-rom for Nextbook 7 Premium

Welcome to Androot-N7p-ROM for the NextBook 7 Premium *ONLY.
I decided to change up some of the apps and generalize the rom in terms of its boot-animation screen. It runs on LauncherPro (just choose it as the "always"/default upon first instance of it. The Launcher that comes with the device isn't so great, but I left it there just in case.
It's based on the first known rooted ROM for this device: 'DocHoppy's ROM'. Credit for most of this ROM goes to him and to 'Wendal' for his toolset for packing the ROM (into cramfs) for the Nextbook 7 Premium device.
As such, it is a beta/ work-in-progress.

Here's my changes..
removed:
-youtube player <- the real youtube app is better
-explorer <- redundant
-slide me app market <- redundant now that Google's Market is installed
-quick search box <- Google Search widget is better IMO
kept/added:
-Market <- the real Google one
-root explorer - an alternative & capable file explorer
-astro file manager <- we all know it well
-quickpic 1.5.2 - a much lighter & more efficient photo organizer/viewer
-3D gallery <- some love it, some hate it
-brightness level 1.0.0 - quicker brightness changes
-ConnectBot 1.6.2 <- for those that need a SSH tool
-Officesuite full <- may as well keep it
-Titanium Backup 4.6.7 <- has some very handy tools aside from backups
-LauncherPro 0.8.6 <- may be old, but it's smooth and capable
-superuser <- because this rom is rooted
-has some of the Google Apps (go ahead and add as you see fit)
-has a custom boot animation.

Known Issue:
Apps2sd reports SU Binary out of date. Attemps to update this via superuser fails due to cramfs file system.
It's not perfect, but it does work well and I run it as my daily driver on my N7P.
Please give feedback or suggestions! I trust the pro devs could easily help me out with the little things!

Since I'm new to modifying/cooking ROMs, here's my
Questions I have for the devs that cook ROMs all the time...
(lol)
Where do I edit the items that show in 'settings > about' in the device?
How do I change the default shortcuts that LauncherPro puts on the dock?
How do I change what icons are default on the home screen?
Where do I put custom wallpapers as part of the rom?
How do I modify Android UI colours?
Can the dialer be removes without losing "contacts"?
How do I create a shortcut to "contacts" without the phone/dialer?
(more to come I'm sure)

Hello, first of all, thanks for your work!
I am having trouble loading this rom. it says there's an invalid image file in my sd card and if I want to delete.
Now, I don't know if my tablet is a never or older version of what you guys have...
Next7p
2.3.1
kernel: 2.6.32.27
build: v2.0.7.....
my serial is also different from alot..it starts with YF0511
any help or tips?

In Dochoppy's original rom/post he mentions that the device will need to have a serial number starting with YF1011. That stands the same for this rom, as it's derived from his.
Having an invalid update.img firmware file could be due to a number of things, but the one I have here works on my device.
I wish I had more of an answer, but by all means try out the tools for repacking the rom.

So after messing around compiling a ROM, I forgot to add a launcher, and now I am stuck in a bootloop. After the girl in the dress is there for awhile, I get a black screen, then reboot. Anyone now how to fix this? I have been searching Google, but can not find anything yet.
Any help would be great!

I had mine half dead for a short bit until i found i could go into a low level bootloader mode and recover it. I am working on getting a the tool/images i used to recover mine uploaded and such.
Download and extract n7p_rescue_kit.zip
Reboot device using paper clip then quickly press and hold reset until you get black screen with usb plugged in
When windows wants driver give it the respective folder for your os (32bit or 64bit) from Drivers folder from the download
Run RK29update.exe if it says "Found RKAndroid Loader Rock Usb" on bottom you are good but if it shows "No Found RKAndroid rock usb" repeat last step.
Either flash all of the default selected items or do just system (since bootloop is in system)
Hope this helps
P.S. If you pack then unpack your custom one you can flash JUST system using the tool but be sure to use the offsets that are pre-loaded.

use a pin to push the reset button on the back to break out of the boot loop.
If after this your rom still bootloops, try putting a different update.img rom to flash, on to the sd card. Then boot into safe mode by holding all 4 front buttons after boot. the update should be found and installed after that.

Thanks!
I registered just to thank DocHoppy for all his efforts. I have a Nextbook Premium 7 I got for Christmas from Hastings, which fell into the YF09111XXXX batch. I used Wendal Chen's RK29xxImageTools_v2.1 to unpack the firmware upgrade from the nextbookusa site. I then put the Google apks, SuperUser, Rootexplorer, and re-packed it with a custom bootanimation. Because of my serial # I couldn't use DocHoppy rom without getting that "Invalid Update" error, but using their firmware seems to work.
My next goal is to find a way to get the "Accounts & Sync" into the settings! One of my apps is getting an "Error 42" which is an Android Market authentication error... however, other apps have worked without any problems so it's difficult to tell if that's the issue I'm having.

Install "Quick Sync Settings" to get to the hidden settings view.
Also did you use this guide for market? That one worked great for me.

Thanks
Working great for me so far. Thanks sharing your work.

Nice!!!
I have the image as well... Can you tell me how to open it or point me in the direction of a tutorial? I've been looking for weeks and couldnt find any info until this thread I have a yf091... as well. Thanks in advance for any help.

Not sure if this rom will work for you, just guessing by your serial number. If it is to work changing between roms on these tablets is very easy. Just download the image onto the root of your sdcard, rename it update.zip (not update.zip.zip) your tablet will recognize it as an update and ask if you want to proceed. If you say yes then follow the prompts and your in business!

Just go this to day and was plesantly suprised to find this rooted rom. Just wanted toy let you know that my S/N is YF12112xxxx and this rom work prefect for me (so far) Thanks for all the work you guys have done here. Also is there anyway to over clock the processor in out tabs?

Thanks for the comments thus far!
I would like to overclock this thing too, but that might be further down the road, as priority is on getting a different file-system for the /system volume.
Version 0.4 is coming next.
FYI:
There will be a larger span of time between updates on this particular rom for the N7p, because I will be using more stable conjumbles of things from other roms for this device. This rom is more of a remix or derivative than an entirely different rom.

Again thanks for all the hard work. I have a few requests. first since we cant change the Adhoc ( using wifi from another android device) on the fly with out RW access can you please add the ability to connect to adhoc wifi in the next build? Also i love google currents app but we cant use is on our device because we don't have map's installed. can that be added as well?

Most of the N7P roms out there now have Market installed and working. Why not just install these apps yourself?
I only suggest so because for the time being, the device is limited to its minimal capacity for apps without full-on apps2SD. Besides, for a tablet like this, you want to keep the system apps to a minimum and de-bloated for performance whenever possible.

Oh I was talking about currents and maps. Both of those can be installed via market. I have them both on my tablet.
The ad-hoc networking is something worth putting in a later release though.
good mention.

Runs great
Works great on my

[ROM] JXD S7100B ZCR v1_5 + setting [update 16 may]

this rom is only for S7100B
S7100B Zip's Custom Rom 1.5
the philosophy that underlies this first rom (do not expect miracles) is this:
If Android is not at 100% open, with the modifications of the house JXD, it is certainly less
for that cause this rom came WITHOUT any frills, so that the user choose what to have or not have on your console since the emu (not upgradeable) to app (not removable)
v1.5 changelog
-add theme faenza
-add advance task killer
-add my backup of vtl launcher settings
here is the v1.0 changes:
Based on the last official rom for JXD s7100b
- Removed ALL emulators series (since they could not raise it to update)
- Removed all serial applications to be added jxd (because there people who do not use FB Skype etc.)
- Removed serial launcher (really crappy)
-VTL.Launcher 1.6.5-added info link (ADW launcher launcher based on tablet-oriented
-FileManagerHD-added as a manager (much higher than 2 managers istallabili Series)
-Added superuser.apk
Changed clock font
changhed menu font
and that's it for now ..
The next thing I want to add (2.0) have a different boot animation, add a simple task killer, the theme for whiteware adw (if it works on VTL) default background, and another music video player
and then study how to make a backup of the settings of the launcher so who installs from scratch and restore my rom does not have to configure the home
A special thanks goes to SNESFAN and its forum: http://forum.openhandhelds.net/
Bitrider I create a custom rom for the first Android console,
to the reference point of android modding XDA
Android and the whole community
My community reference point for italian open source console users
www.OPENCONSOLE.it
BRIEF-Up Guide
1) get yourself a micro sd and put the files ZCR1.zip
2) make a backup of everything you need to save, (the new rom is really skinny)
3) Introduce the sd in the console
4) turn on the console by holding the keys POWER + MENU(the last button on the right of the 3 keys Android)
5) Wait and you will find in "bootloader)
6) Optional: make wipe of data/user
7) go to apply update from sd and start pressing the start / select
8) navigate and select ZCR1.zip and start the process
9) if all goes well should start installing the custom rom
10) when the process is finished you reboot system
you will come round to set up a launcher!
do not fear the next version will provide a backup of the settings in order to have everything already set
download: http://filesmelt.com/dl/ZCR1.zip
edit 16 may:
there is the 1.5 vers + my vtl launcher setting
download 1.5+ setting: http://www.openconsole.it/download/ZCR1_5s7100b.zip
extract on your sd card
follow the past guide
then go on vtl setting and restore setting

Thank you and a question
First, I want to thank you for the ZCR 1.5 custom rom. It has really been great to have an alternate to the stock firmware. I've been trying to determine how to build my own custom rom for the JXD S7100B, but appear to be missing a step somewhere.
I've constructed a ROM and created the .zip image and then attempted to sign it with signapk.jar with the typical android testkeys. However, every time I attempt to update from sdcard zip file in the recovery menu, I'm greeted with an E:signature not verified error. I've tried to create my own certificates using OpenSSL and sign with those, I've compared the ZCR 1.5 custom rom to the latest firmware update from JXD, I've even tried to simply resign the ZCR1_5.zip image with the testkeys. All attempts have failed. I've scoured the internets for as much information as I can find and I can't see any difference between what I am doing and what I am reading. I've tried executing the signapk.jar under 32-bit XP and under 64-bit Windows 7 just on the off chance that there was a precision discrepancy between the two versions of java.
I'm at a loss and would like to know if you would consider outlining the process you use to sign the .zipped image? Do you use jarsign or signapk or some other tool? Are you signing with something other than the testkey certs?
Thanks,
jkgamer
