I have successfully rooted my DPT-RP1 and I can use adb commands. I am aware that I cannot use DPA with the modified boot.img. Is there a way to upload pdf files without DPA? Thanks!

You should be able to use bluetooth or wifi to connect to DPA. You can also use janten's tool to upload docs.

Sorry, I haven't get time to look into this yet.

Same problem. Digital Paper App can not connect to the dpt-rp1 through USB, bluetooth or WIFI.

Everything went well when I first hacked my dpt-rp1, but when I tried to upload a pdf yesterday, the App didn't work. I'm not sure when the App started to not recognize the device.

I recommend to use koreader and you can upload files through adb push. Refer to #48.

Thanks HappyZ and Zack-Q! I managed to use DPA via WIFI. It is not as convenient as using DPA via USB, but I can live with it now : )

@Zack-Q when you say it doesn't work for all connections, did it work before? Anything done in between?

  1. Connect your computer and your DPT-RP1 device to the same WIFI access point. 2) Open DPA, it will try to connect the device.

@HappyZ I can't remember I have done anything special since I rooted the device.

For your information, I rooted the device, then flashed the TaoBao image. Since it didn't work, I flashed the official image back. I lost all my pdfs on the device, so I used the app to synchronize my backup to the device (The app did work at that time). After I installed koreader, I kept using adb push to transfer files. A few days ago, I tried to use the app and found it could not recognize the device any more, for all connections.

I can't repeat this right now. But, if you use the old modded boot.img version (Nov version), would it work?

I flashed the boot-1.4.01.16100-mod-happyz-181118.img, but the device still can't be recognized.

It's been a while since I rooted my device, so I list the steps here so that you can see if I did it wrong.

  1. Enter the dpt-tools directory and run python3 dpt-tools.py ....
  2. Run the command diagnosis, follow the instructions, reboot the device to the diagnosis mode.
  3. Run the command restore-bootimg in the diagnosis mode.
  4. Follow the instructions to copy the file python_api/assets/boot-1.4.01.16100-mod-happyz-181118.img into the newly mounted disk, rename it to boot.img.bak. Press the enter key and start to flash.
  5. Reboot the device.

Thanks.
