Update #2: VICTORY HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED ON 2.11.0.
Zoom works albeit the instructions I followed didn't render the result. I had to use the cfccfgv2 python script and the SUID to manually edit the zoom lines of code and then repackage it back into a CFC format from CFG format. For some reason running the conc_cfc_menu_e4.py file does NOT edit the zoom features. Intentional or not, this needs to be done manually as stated above.
So that leaves me with 2.11.0 Model 1.2L E4 with 320x240 resolution, 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x zoom capability, lots of color palettes, ability to take ALL the GUI off the screen when "No Measurement" is selected, photos can save as expected, and toggle between MSX and thermal hybrid modes etc. The only other thing I would manually have to edit in the CFC code is Picture-in-Picture PIP mode, however I dont have any need for that so I am 100% freaken satisfied!!!!!! GOOD JOB ALL ORIGINAL HACKERS =D
