I noticed that no one has made a new section request for the Pandigital Star( R70B200 ). I don't know how many users on this forum have this device, however I know that some users probably already own this device.

Well, there's you and me so far. I second your suggestion. I've only had this (Pandigital Star) new toy for a couple days, but I have found a lot of usefull stuff here. Got the training wheels off. Having lots of fun.

I have the Star and am already experiencing Firmware upgrade problems with it even though it's brand new and barely a week old (if that).

Thanks for agreeing with me. As for the section reason, it's so that all the information can be consolidated. Actually, it's possible that the Pandigital Planet, and Pandigital Nova sections might need to be Merged with the section for the Pandigital Star. The only reason for this merge would be that the devices are extremely similar, with minor configuration changes, and once the unlocking of the kernel, and u-boot is complete, it'll be quick to create new firmwares for all three.

This is a good example of why a Pandigital Star section is needed. or at least a merged Pandigital Pan8006 section ( Pandigital's renaming of the Amlogic 8726m chip )

Got one, rooted it, will be making some update flashes for it.

Would anyone happen to have the PR7W_A_BN_W_A_C11092011.zip firmware that I could download somehow? I deleted it on accident off my sdcard and cannot get it back because the FW tool says I am up to date. I rooted with Z4 and flashed gapps, everything works except my home button which is weird. Figured Id try to get back to stock if I can.

Sure, pandigital has been blocking browsing, however I did some tcpdump magic... here's the url to the latest update:
http://data1.pandigi..._C_12302011.zip

I think I got a copy of the older one here.

Ahhh yes, found the original, and an experimental one...
one that I leeched before PD stopped allowing people to browse and download on thier own.

I hope they will allow browsing again.

Got my Pandigital Star just before Christmas. It came with FW PR7W_A_BN_W_A_C_11092011. It made several tries to download an update last night - very slow - finally did it at about 3:00 am today and got version 12302011. Funny thing, checking the SDcard, the new 12302011.zip is there at root, and there is a new Dir called OLD FIRMWARE that contains the SAME (12302011.zip) file. No sign of 11092011 version.

Eventually the firmwares will appear in the Pandigital downloads area -- at least that's my hope.

When they do appear, the 12302011 and the experimental ones should be there. If you really really really want the original and can't wait, send me a personal message and I can give you the URL to it on my private server.

OK I just got my pandigital Star for my birthday. I think my hubby got it off ########### it is used (like new cond no scratches ect}. My goal is to read ebooks, watch movies (my dvd collection), play games (jeawl, solitair, tetrus, hunt and find games, cruz the internet, dirving directions, facebook, youtube, craigslist. Now I keep reading about Rooting and config this and that. I am so confused. Where do I start, upload, download, reconfig or install. I have bipolar, OCD and ADD please do not be rude and give directions like you would to a 7 year old. Thank you for any help and tips or tricks you can offer.

Ok. This is gonna be easy for you. First of all, if it does what you need it to do, you don't have to do anything. Just use it. From what you listed, you probably want a little more functionality than it has now. What I did was went to Amazon in the browser and downloaded their app store. It has a much better selection of apps than Getjar. This may give you what you need. I would like Google Play market on mine, so I rooted it. All that means is to give you more access to the file system of the device. This is very easy on this device. Download an app called Z4Root from the Amazon market and run it. That's it. There are several good Youtube videos if you have questions.

I am going to use this method to apply the Play store: http://www.the-ebook...oid-market.html

Lemme know if I can help with anything else

I've been pleasantly surprised at the performance on this, considering it's a very low cost tablet. rooted it immediately, and have been looking into tweaking it a bit. no major complaints with it, just my usual modding obsession coming to the forefront..
