Was just gonna post this. Its strange its only on the news page, and not in the software support section. It also says it now adds USB charging of the device.CPG

Windows only. :-(No Linux / Mac love? I still have mine at the moment, so I was considering running this.EDIT: http://android-dls.com/files/linux/fastboot. Silly me for not googling, first!EDIT #2: Worked for me, using the above binary on Ubuntu Lucid x64 and the SDK. Quick instructions:- place the img files wherever you want (I put them in my tools folder, just to make life easier)- create an environment variable.... export ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT=/whereveryourtoolsfolderis- Connect via USB, then reboot the device as mentioned in the PDF (hold back button + reset)- Run these commands:./fastboot flash recovery./fastboot flash boot./fastboot flash systemYou should see OKAY for each, with system taking the longest to complete.- Reset the device again. I actually got stuck the first time and had to reset twice, and then it booted up.Build number now has a 20100730 date, so I guess they had this piece ready for a few days but decided to release before the full-blown patch was ready.

Anybody run this yet? Seems like this opens the door for some more hacking. And does it reset the device and remove apps that we may have installed?

 

[roebeet]

I just ran it - I had the least to lose since mine is going back anyway.Apps in /data are still there - makes sense, as there's no userdata.img. /system gets flashed so your Google ID might get wiped - but not certain because mine was already removed. I'm also thinking that this might also allow someone to salvage a bricked device as the back button + reset seems to be a recovery mode.

USB charging is a big, big bonus... Seriously.

Can you please put it on a upload site. I think we just killed Augen. I can probably put on slatedroid if needed. ( with approval from Mike or mp4dg )

When installing this I found out that I can go into Recovery and actually use the menu button to go up search button to go down home button is hide/show and back button is actionSo today is a big day friends!WE have a Working Recovery!!!

 

[lawman]

Just curious... Has anyone tried to flash the PDN firmware to the Augen? I haven't tried the reverse, but maybe I should...

 

[xport]

Dude....do it! And report back...

 

[lawman]

They don't seem to have a full fw update yet...

 

[jelinidas]

ok , sounds good. But are there any negitives to this patch that anyone has seen? What else did they slip in. Can we still root access?

 

[wbales]

doesn't seem like the charging USB is actually working..............it says its charging but the battery is going down........maybe a little slower than usual....but isn't charging when hooked to computer

Are you using it while charging? Charging with a usb cable is slow to begin with. Does it charge if ya leave it alone for a few?

[quote name='lawman;30423]USB charging is a big' date=' big bonus... Seriously.[/QUOTE']Yeah, and I'm sure that they'll let you know when they have the automagically cracking cases... as a bonus...

OK stupid question, might just be that I was not paying attention before I installed the calibration patch, but now when I scroll (on this forum) while web surfing the screen goes pinkish. So really two stupid questions1) Did it do that before and I was not paying attention?2) If not is anyone else seeing this result after the patch?

 

[Dunavan]

WOAH! Where did the built in device storage information go in the SD card & Tablet PC storage settings? Little bastards trying to cover their butts? There is no longer any info there on the device, like it was never there after the patch...
