How to enter flash mode

In any state, hold Power and Volume Up until you see a prompt with recovery and fastboot option. Press Volume Down.

Download mode can be accessed by holding Volume Up, Volume Down and Power until backlight lights up.

Installation

General installation guide should do just fine.

Firmware

Firmware is located on modem partition in the device, but some files which are required to tinker with Wi-Fi are on android system partition in /etc/ directory.

After adding audio firmware, aplay detects a sound card. I've done some work to convert mixer_paths.xml to Alsa UCM but without success.
