[ROM] Gentouch78 Rooted v0.3 (for v1)

I have to say I was very confused reading these threads after just buying a Gentouch 78 tablet, but there is definitely a revised model of this tablet, I bought mine two days ago at CDR Electronics and yes it has a working accelerometer and also has 3.5mm head phone jack. I also own a Archos 7ht and this thing is a much better tablet for $50 bucks less! IMO I don't think I would attempt to use any patches at Augen's website, I don't think they have caught up with there own product.
 
did not know that there were versions to this thing...I have the white power button 3.5 headphone jack version and not knowing any better a couple months ago I used the instructions in the first post of this thread to install the jesterdroid v0.3, I have had no major issues and everything worked as instructed...I even tried another rom I found out there in the ether for a few days (cant recall the name or where i found it, sorry) and switched back to jesterdroid...seemed to be faster and more stable....all of the instructions seem to be on the money and it works including the market......did I get insanely lucky to have not bricked it??
 
I think after market stuff made for the generic chip is fine, but the stuff on Augens web site is designed for the early model.
 
So my goal here is to get the newer build (from the stock unit) back onto the other device. Can anyone in this forum explain how I might achieve this? I'll be happy to share this build with the rest of the community.
It's really simple. First you need root it and got sd card (for image). Then connect tablet to pc with USB. Next enable usb debug if it's disabled. And after this you can run adb shell from android sdk:
Code:
adb shell
cat /proc/mtd
you see:
Code:
cat /proc/mtd
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 80000000 00080000 "bootloader"
mtd1: 00a00000 00080000 "boot"
mtd2: 09600000 00080000 "system"
mtd3: 00400000 00080000 "splash"
mtd4: 01400000 00080000 "cache"
mtd5: 13b00000 00080000 "userdata"
mtd6: 00100000 00080000 "persist"
mtd7: 00a00000 00080000 "recovery"
mtd8: 00100000 00080000 "misc"
mtd9: 00100000 00080000 "tcc"

For start need boot system and recovery. Run from adb shell command:
Code:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd1 > /sdcard/boot.img
cat /dev/mtd/mtd2 > /sdcard/system.img
cat /dev/mtd/mtd7 > /sdcard/recovery.img
after this remove sdcard and copy file to computer
