Firstly i tried the Migear firmware upgrades and it worked a treat, but video player and something else was missing from the menu. I wanted my video player back!
Migear
MiGear eBook Reader ADOBE DRM license firmware upgrade

After more googling i found another company selling the same item. So went to their page and downloaded there firmware.
Skytex
SKYTEX - Downloads.

Found the .img file in the folders from skytex and i gave it a whirl. It worked a treat and now i have all the functions back and the menu looks 10 times better :-)
I used the RK28 Device manager to upgrade the .img files that were in the downloaded folders. Took about 90seconds to load and install the firmware to the device.
I wonder if the battery life is a little better?? Was only getting about 3 to 4 hours reading time!

My ebook menu now looks like this and i'm a happy bunny now

The radio on it is still useless tho........
Hi i have a china e-book that looks exactly like yours the chip inside is rockchip RK2738 v1.0.5 and i am having problemes with the internal memory( Flash ) when i copy some video on it all seems fine. I turn on the ebook try to access the file and it says no file on disk. When i replug the e-book to pc then the drive needs to be formated but unable to format with windows. I low level format end then re-format sometimes it works ans other times does not work. Is there a way to partition the flash memory. I tried to update with SKYTEX and RK28DM but does not work. Can you help me?
