Updating, rooting, installing Google Play on a Proscan PLT8031 (rk29sdk, Rockchip)

This post is mostly for my future reference, in case something happens and I need to remember how to do this again, but what the hell, someone googling the process might find it and save them the several days study and hobbling together instructions for other devices that it took me

how to root a proscan PLT8816K

I'm sorry, I couldn't tell you how to do that one. You might try adapting what I've done with my model, but there's always a chance you could brick it.

Use cydia impactor. That was the only thing that worked on my plt8223g (even towelroot didn't work) and I've used it on a few other machines too.

Now if only we could get cyanogenmod on these things. The updates in 4.4 might make the 512mb ram more usable.

That would be ideal >.< I think this model just sort of got forgotten.
