You sir, are the man... thank you!
Quick question (excuse my naivete), how do I go about removing bloatware?

got any one that might know ?thanks for the fast response

The easiest way will be to download/install the google SDK and the USB driver package... you SHOULD then be able to use a windows-based ADB.exe in a command prompt to access the tablet and do the install as shown for Linux.

You could install a file manger and remove what you don't want.

Below is my current setup. the d2pad has a system of 503.9M I am using 228.7M so not much bloatware on my setup, I replaced the factory rom with CM9, I don't remember how much system was used via factory rom

root@android:/ # busybox df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 407.1M 60.0K 407.1M 0% /dev
tmpfs 407.1M 0 407.1M 0% /mnt/asec
tmpfs 407.1M 0 407.1M 0% /mnt/obb
/dev/block/nandd 503.9M 228.7M 275.3M 45% /system
/dev/block/nande 1007.9M 194.5M 813.4M 19% /data
/dev/block/nandh 126.0M 4.1M 121.9M 3% /cache

Hello all, I'd like to take a stab at compiling CWR for the 09Bxxxxx model. I do know how since I've made recoveries for the optimus slider. I have checked out the code as per [rom] CyanogenMod 10 - SlateDroid.com but I'd like to know how I can modify keycodes? This would be a great boon for 09Bxxxxx owners.

I would much prefer CM... I assume you used this one from XDA, correct? I also found a CM10 release here BTW.
Also, I cannot for the life of me figure how to cold-boot into recovery... I have tried all combinations of PWR + VOL +/- etc. No luck. This in itself makes me nervous about goofing around with ROM images.

Ugh.. now I did it. After my previous post, I realized that I could just do adb reboot recovery. So in my infinite wisdom, I flashed the CM10 and now cannot get past splash screen. I figure no big deal, I'll just adb into the device... nothing doing. I get "device not found" and the usb is working fine (shows properly in device manager) even after killing/restarting/scanning devices. I am going to proceed into linux territory to try adb there, but I am not hedging my bets... I am truly afraid I bricked it unless somehow I can get into recovery using hardware buttons. I have tried several suggestions from forums referencing the A10 to no avail. I wish I had seen this thread before I tried CM10.

UPDATE - adb works in linux (using sudo su), but no r/w to device and no reboot recovery (just boots CM). Looks like CWM is snarfed... I will keep posting updates.

You can't boot into recovery from hard key combo, it has been disabled by the company that made d2pad, they have an option in settings to boot to recovery, or use the script I include with cw recovery.

No I didn't use that CM9, I used my own port for 8042.

CM9 for Coby 8042

I may port CM10 at some point, It will also come from my own ports.

You installed Christian Troy's source, sounds like you are all set then, good luck.

Did you succeed in getting ClockworkMod Recovery to work on the 09xxxx model?
