You need driver only for flashing a new firmware/ROM on the device.

For accessing the internal memory, and SD card in the device, driver is not needed, but you have to set the device into Mass Storage mode. For example I can see the 2 partitions (internal memory user space is one and the other is SD card) when I connect my device with Darwin 2.2.1 or Prestigio 3 to PC, but cannot access them right away. Open the Notification area, there should be "USB connected" line - tap it and then turn USB storage on. Alternatively you can toggle the Mass Storage mode on and off with a power toggle widget (Free Power Widget for example).

I have a bit of a situation myself - with the Market. When I used the Market on Darwin 2.2.1, I let it store my account data in the cloud. When I flashed Prestigio 3 over it, I didn't make a backup or uninstall any apps, now all the apps that I had installed on Darwin 2.2.1 at the this time do not show up on the Market on Prestigio 3!? I installed AppBrain and can find and install all these apps again, but it is strange that the Market does not have those apps listed under My Apps/Not Installed and they don't come up with search either... anyone got any ideas?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JDfense:
Okay, the rk2818 driver should work under Win7 64 bit?

Then I have now something learned.:) I will try to install the driver again and change the usb port before. Right?

---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------

I remember that I have had a similiar problem, too. In my case, I have cleared some folders of the sdcard and take out the sdcard during flashing process. Maybe this could help you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Iknownot:
In my experience the drivers do not work on 64-bit Windows.

I have always taken out SD card before flashing too, but as for clearing some files on the card, I haven't found anything related to the Market there. I have booted the thing without SD card, but the Market is still the same. Anyway, I will be flashing back the Darwin 2.2.1 because the Prestigio 3 is misbehaving, crashing and freezing all the time, maybe bad flash or corrupted image.

here try that it says its 64bit for win vista and win 7 it also has all the drivers for the 32 bit no garentees tho i hate windows vista/7 and even more so hate the 64bit of every thing

if it works for ya let me know ill post it to the main page

Hello,

it works! I can see the USB drives from the Genesis!!!

I have noticed that the USB drives are intergrated, but that they were not visible.

So I've you plug in the USB cable, you have an entry "USB connected" (in the taskbar on the top of the tabled ) and there is the button "Turn on USB Strorage".

I've you click the button, the Volumes are visible in the Windows Explorer.

I hope it helps many other users, that have the same problem.

becouse i cant downlod it from prestigio site,is there somebody have clean 2.2 froyo update for pmp3084b. with tools.thanks.:confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JDfense:
Good work!:D

Which version of win7 do you use, Matthias?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Matthias_1968:
I have Win7 ultimate 64-Bit
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JDfense:
I've tried it again. As result I could confirm the experience of Matthias.

Win7 64bit works fine with RK2818 driver.:) RKbatchupgrade could be used under Win7 64-bit.

By the way I can't understand, why you hate 64-bit OE as »Linux-code-maker«. I hate sometimes 64-bit, because audio drivers for my audio device are rare, especially Linux seems to be a desert for audio cards. but win7 64bit, too.;)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] iRedMan:
Hi, I've been using it for several hours now and I really like it! Fast, stable, lightweight with well chosen set of "system" apps. Some of them were now working properly, but updating them solved the problem except MX Player which keeps crashing. Only thing which annoyes me is not working home icon - it simply doesn't work even if properly set to "go in default screen".

Overall good work ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mieszkos_x:
Yes, some apps need to reinstall/update but they are working very well, well the home icon should work(but i dont know what you mean really, write more about that:) ). Thanks for check

Don't worry check reply up, based on orginal prestigio 2.2 froyo , apps2sd works good etc also just check it !

-I have added google sync for email and calendar

-I tried to root the rom, but I'm not shure(first time I tried)

-fast rom

-very stable so far I can say

-very good calibration

---

-large rom, many apps maybe not necessary - maybe next time, I will take out some of the apps, but all looks so colorful and nice, that I don't want to give up any app now.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Here comes a second Odys Genesis version of the Prestigio 2.2 Froyo,

special thanks to Donaldj83

-Same as the version 1, but without some apps. I take out only about 15MB bloat ware ;)

- possible speed improvement

- you have to clean up your desktop(delete and copie until you like it)

Test it and have fun.

Hint: For Prestigio versions of these roms, you need only change the rom base back to original firmware.

is there a tools to make a backup of my current Firmware, before I test any other image?

Matthias_1968
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] iRedMan:
When I tap home icon (top left house icon) then nothing happens - no move to default home desktop. And the home icon function is correctly set in Zeam preferences, ie. it's set to go to default screen. The same setting works for me well with other ROMs.

BTW I'm sorry for your tablet - hope they will service it within warranty ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JDfense:
I'm not shure, but I think not for the complete firmware, but for your apps collection and your user data and settings. Titaniumbackup is maybe the right tool for you.

lacking some pink colour

I turned my PMP3083B off, connected to USB, launched the RKAndroidBatchUpgrade.exe but I am not seeing the pink colored box in the device upgrade area.

However, the tablet is listed in Windows (7, 64bit) device manager, as portable device PMP3083B and the is also listed in Windows Explorer.

I tried updating the driver, but it says that WPD Filesystem Volume driver is already installed.

I tried changing the USB port and I also flashed it to original firmware, but to no avail.

Help please!

I turned my PMP3083B off, pressed and held the down/next page key when connected to USB...

However, the tablet ... is also listed in Windows Explorer - Explorer shows available data storage partitions in the device (flash and SD card if inserted), it does not display the device itself, and this is what happens when you connect the device to PC with USB cable without holding the down/next page key.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Pink light?... gossh! light is green most of the time... or blue after cleaning IDB

You are doping a normal connection then it will never be a light.

To get the light you must have the device off and pressing the down arrow key you plug USB... this is the way to get into recovery mode in RK2818.

First time it will ask you for some driver, RK28x, that must be enclosed with RKAndroidBatchUpgrade software.

happy thanksgiving day!!

SAMBA video streaming support

Hi, I've read through most of the posts on this thread. Great job, guys.

I am also recent owner of Prestigio 3084.

Now, I would like to watch video files on tablet from my samba server (without downloading them). I read through many articles and best solution (or only possible) is CifsManager - mounting samba shares on tablet.

Requirements are (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=756158):

* device must be rooted

* kernel with CIFS support

* Android >= 1.6

Because of need of rooted device, I downloaded and installed 2.2 Froyo v4 fixed root. My Android market doesn't work, even though I tried everything written in many posts in this thread - so if anyone has suggestions, I am opet for them.

But, my main concern is Samba. I installed CifsManager from apk. I added my share to it's seeting, but shares could not be mounted because of: Mounting failed because of error: Permissions denied.

I don't know if the problem is in some root privileges of fw or there is no CIFS support in kernel. Could it work without that CIFS support in kernel? Or maybe superuser application has to be used to give root privileges to CifsManager?! I read that cyanogenmod has that support - is there 2.2 rom for our device that has it?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Iknownot:
I can tell you one thing, there is only one kernel that all the firmwares/ROM's use and it is older than Android 1.6 kernel, this is the kernel from Android 1.0 I think.

The best ROM I have used is Darwin 2.2.1, I have the version from russian forum with full root, working market etc., but it did have some faults (Apps2SD did not work with over 20MB apps and some other minor things, and this ROM doesn't seem to be available anymore). But they have several rooted versions of the latest Prestigio Froyo available (open third spoiler).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dutchmaninvienna:
Hi JDefense

Thanks for making and sharing this Rom. I downloaded and installed it, and it works, but it is not clear what is specifically "Odys" about it. During Loading I get:

1) Odys Logo

2) Prestigio logo

3) Android logo (longest time)

The home screen looks like the Prestigio home screen but with less progs.

When you mentioned it was an Odys Genesis version I was under the impression it would have the Genesis look. So what did you mean by this. I will keep it a while because I really think the booting is relatively short, and it is nice that soem of the progs are deleted. I just like the Odys look better than the prestigio look. But anyway, thanks again for making this one!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
kernels

Concerning kernels. As you say is used kernel 2.6.25 which is a very old one. That doesn't matter as kernel is the connection between hardware and software and hardware have been the same since Rock-chips create RK28xx.

But... versions of this kernel 2.6.25 there are many:

. some of them comes with wifi some others not, so despite of all its done... wifi won't work

. for instance, kernel can be configured to use some orientation, so if firmware have the same orientation everything will be fine, if not it will be necessary adjust the software for a correct orientation.

. kernel rules size of screen.

Then kernel is adapted to a specific hardware which differ among makers.

That's way fully tested ROMs work different in other devices and maybe is the reason why it's have been so hard to solve some mysterious issues: wifi in 2.3.1 and video acceleration in 2.3.5.

My suggestion is to use always the kernel provided by your maker. This is to put appropriate kernel in a ROM picked from the net... keeping boot.img, recovery.img and system from the new ROM. This is just for simplify the adjustment of the ROM to your device.

I have a collection of kernels 2.6.25, at least 6 which acts differently in the same ROM

In front of me I have a kernel signed "bryan@ubuntu #68" in my 8.4" device and one signed "root@zc-desktop # 2", if this aren't yours then you can imagine that there a 3 at least modified for a specific RK2818 device.

PD.: if this weren't so complicated is still the mysterious INIT file that comes in boot.img, which has some other particularities on ROM... :rolleyes:

---------- Post added at 01:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 PM ----------

1) Odys Logo <--- this comes in the kernel (this determine that the ROM is Odys, because it reflects a Odys device)

2) Prestigio logo <---- this comes in boot.img (initlogo.rle)

3) Android logo (longest time) <---- this comes either in "bootanimation" in "bin" section or bootanimation.zip in "media" section.

About cooking

At first to transfer the odys design in the prestigio froyo is a good idea, but I think this could be a bit too tricky for me, but your're right the odys design is cool. Odys update policy seemed to be weak. I don't think, that they built a froyo version for genesis. Prestigio on the other hand invest a lot of work in their firmware. The froyo version of Prestigio is very stable, with lot of useful apps and a nice colourful design. Okay, everbody has other wishes about apps in or out. This froyo is large and fast. This firmware is a very good playground for all assemblers like me.:) Cooking your own rom brings some fun.

The devs are playing more with code and lines.:D

I want to add DaremoS advices:

1)The rom base from odys means kernel.img, misc.img and recovery.img are original taken from the odys genesis firmware.

2.)The system.img and the boot.img are from the Prestigio froyo with some modifications. I have taken google sync in and some apps out. Thats the cooking part.;)

3.)The short boot time with the android logo is the result of taking out the complete bootanimation(7MB nice animation). Only the Prestigio picture from the boot.img is left.

The rom base of the Prestigio and the odys firmware must be really simular, because both work on both tablets, but the best for calibration is original from your tablet.

Cook your own rom, with your own wishes. Let me know, when you have cooked an froyo rom with the odys design.:cool:

I preorder one copy right now.:D:D:D

I really wish I knew how to do cook but I don´t have a clue how to do all these things. Is there a website or something where you can learn these things? For now thanks for the explanation! I now understand that it is not possible to get a froyo with the Genesis look. Pity, but that´s what it is! At this point there is one thing which I would like to ask you guys. There is one thing which I don´t understand. Everyone is so happy with android, but I think there is one thing which really bothers me. In the TMPCP mediaplayer running under win ce it is possible to change the contrast and the colours. This for some reason is not integrated/not possible under Android. I think however it would enormously improve the screen of the Odys if one could change the colours a bit. There simply is too much blue. I found an app on market place which could do this (don´t remember its name) but unfortunately it was not stable and the mediaplayer freezed when I changes the contrats and colour. Is there anyone of you who knows if there is another app or way to change the colours of the Odys/Prestigio???

---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 PM ----------

The app was called "screen adjuster" (sorry, am not allowed to insert outside links yet)

but as I said unfortunately the mediaplayer does ot work properly when the contrast and colours are changed
