Strange the vol buttons works on tne Extreme with suggsys 0.8 build.

Are you sure they worked on the stock build, maybe you have an h/w fault.

Are the buttons on the Elite multi-purpose like the Extreme?

@ simon194
I will need button mapping for the Elite if you want me to i can fix it up...
Did you make a backup? Perhaps i can take it apart and use some of the drivers, fix auto rotate aswell..??

I guess CWM works too... Nice job.

That would be AMAZING if you could seeing as i'm about to pick up an Elite aswell. Would you recommend i do so or rather go for the Extreme?

Want to order it by 12am tonight so the clocks ticking and i'm still confused! :|

It's totally up to you. The 8GB of memory on the Extreme is more than enough for my needs, but if you need the 16GB then get that. Either way suggsy89 has a lot of skill when it comes to ROMs so I am sure both will work.

To make it compatible though i need at least a dump of the system image from the original Elite firmware

Until someone makes that available i cant do anything though ;)

Get the Elite and the extras with it, do a full rom dump of the Elite firmware, then we can go from there

If you want to that is... lol

I guess the question is how could the extra internal memory of the Elite benefit me in a way a micro sd card couldnt.
I understand there wont be 8gb free, something more like 6gb but for apps and games that should be more than enough and then use a micro sd for media such as movies/episodes etc..

Ok if i decide to go with the elite I will do a full dump of the stock rom, although you would have to talk me through it! I am computer savvy and have jailbroken iphones, firmware hacked xbox's but have never owned a tablet so this is all new to me.

Depends on your usage, Knowing that it cant be expanded I pesonally would go for fhe 16gb but then it is down to whether you can aford the extra bucks.

I didnt know the 16gb was coming so soon when I bought my Extreme, if I had known I would have waited. Saying that the Extreme only has 5.7 gb available out of the 8gb on board, but I havent used much of it. So it will depend how much you download.
