White Pandigital...feeling adventurous

[mom2jps]

We have three of these, as I posted in the general forum I gave up on trying to get my Chinese epads (or paperweights, as they've now basically become) and moved on to the Pandigital 7'' ereader/multimedia tablet.

I have my SD card, USB cable and my tablet and I'm feeling adventurous. However, from reading the forum maybe I don't need to update/upgrade. I have the B&N, OfficeSuite, SlideMe/Sam....but the two things I can't seem to get is access to Android Market and Youtube videos. Is there a flash I could do to get these and still keep what I have?

Also, I recently downloaded the Amazon Android AppStore on my tablet and all seems well until I download, it hangs after purchase complete and it just says download in progress.

Any suggestions? Recommendations? I just want to get the full capacity and use of this tablet and I figured I'd experiment on mine before I touch my daughters' tablets. Thanks.

i have flashed three white pandigital novels, but whats different about the ones i have done is i want the pure android experience and i dont care much about the pandigital stuff. so what i recommend is version 3 from here http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...6-8-20-versions-market-volume-hack-built.html and then add these apps http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/pandigital-novel/5527-app-packages-pandigital-novels.html and remember you have to flash the internal sdcard not the external sdcard you can find out how here Pandigital » Pandigital Novel Android Open Platform kit. (White version)

Cool...I am gonna try this. Just want to be sure I understand the process...I will need to flash the MOD-Rooted PDM ROM (your link) by flashing the internal (also link provided for how-to) Then when that is complete and I go to add the apps as you also have linked....do I just use the external SD for that?

correct or you can just download them straight from the market because once you flash that new rom it will have the official market on it

I'm a bit confused about the instructions. Do I download the firmware onto my external SD card and then remove the internal one. I'm purely a novice with adventurous tendencies LOL. I think the instructions seem quite clear except that I'm not sure what I do first. I'm thinking I d/l the firmware from my laptop to my external and then remove the internal???? Sorry, but thanks for your patience.

Alright, forget my last question...I figured that out. So, I'm loading the firmware, as advised. On the screen is a box with an arrow with the little android guy out side the box and a status bar....the status bar works up to about a 1/4 of the way and then restarts loading.....is this what it is supposed to do?
