Hello,
I was about to buy this tablet:
Ainol Novo 10 Hero 2
http://www.pandawill.com/ainol-novo...-screen-101-inch-16gb-dual-camera-p70835.html
But I found this one:
Acer Iconia A1-810
Is really the Acer better?
I heard a lot about it, found the problem with its speakers (very low), you can't root it (some people tried but I read that they didn't succeed) and apps can't be moved to SD card.............
I don't know much about rooting (I haven't used any android device yet) but I think it's important
Does it have other problems? I don't want to regret buying it...
What do you recommend for me?
Note: About the specs of both devices, I don't have a problem
I'm asking about the software part (lags, developers' custom ROMS, etc....)

The Acer A1-810 is a great tablet - nice size, quad-core performance, the screen is acceptable and it's priced similar to the so-called "value" Chinese tablets on eBay. After owning an Ainol tablet myself, the Acer A1-810 felt like I was moving to a proper, real Android tablet. Build quality and reliability becomes immediately apparent.
Having said that, you want have much success with rooting and loading any custom ROMs. Acer won't unlock the bootloader and the MediaTek SoC chipset is well and truly locked down.
And now, 9 months later, Acer have released the A1-830 - almost the same specs including the screen, but with an Intel chipset I think. However it's still on Jellybean 4.2, which amazes me (where's KitKat?!)
So I expect I will be stuck with Jellybean 4.2.2 for the life of my A1-810 tablet. Which is okay if you're happy to just use the tablet for what it can do: consume media content, play games, surf the net, social media. It does all of this really well.
But as for any software upgrades? Looks like it ain't gonna happen.

Hi
So I Want To Buy A Tablet
An Android Tablet
A Tablet Good For Browsing Gaming And Chatting
So I SAW This Cheep Msi Tablet
Is It Good ?! Bad ?!
Thx
For it's price, it's excellent, but there is little going on with custom roms on this device. I would go for the Acer Iconia A100 or Samsung Galaxy 7 if you want to spend that much. If not, this is one of the better made Rockchip based tablets, welcome to the club

Hello
I have a Tegra 2 T1001 Tablet, I am sure it has been made by
Chinatave (would of posted direct link but not allowed at the minute)
As it has same specs and design. The thing is mine is on Android 3.2 and theirs is running Android 4.
I`d like to know if anyone has a similar (T1001) tablet and would it be easy to update the tablet myself.
Thanks for any info.
Hi there -
I have an Acer C720P but I find I don't use it very much because I've gotten used to a handful of excellent Android apps on my phablet (e.g., PocketCasts, Press, etc). That got me to thinking: if Android can run on so many different devices, is there a way to convert my chromebook to an Android laptop? That would be pretty sweet...especially since this chromebook has a touchscreen, which seems well suited to Android.
I was wondering if anyone has experience with that or can point me to a site that would explain how it can be done (or tell me it can't be done).
Thanks!

Hello everyone.
So I made a mistake of buying Chinese tablet a few years ago rather than adding another $50 and getting ASUS Transformer TF300 which was a beast at that time. The tablet is Rockchip RK3188 based called PIPO M9 Max with 16GB NAND and 2GB RAM with Android custom ROM 4.2.2 installed.
After a few updates of custom rom I noticed that after a month or two it gets very slow and laggy to the point that you can only use it to read a book. I mean even touch on navigating to different website takes 5 seconds for it to respond! Could it be problem with TRIM or something? I don't know if any updated custom rom exists for it but would appreciate your opinion on what to do with tablet?
Thanks
Hi,
I need to replace my Huawei T1 701w tablet as most of the apps will no longer update on Android 4. Can anyone recommend a cheap 7 inch tablet that is well supported on this forum? Something that maybe supported with custom ROMs for a little while? I only use it for watching media and light browsing. Are there currently custom ROMs for the Fire 7? This is one tablet I am considering but I would want to use it with stock Android rather than Amazons own version.
