I haven't been on the forums for some years. I just moved and came across my 2 Touchpads . I've installed CM9 through 12 and experimented with LineageOS 14. So since I have been out of the loop for some time I wanted to ask what is the most stable ROM I can install on these two devices? They are going to my nieces who are 3 and 10 years old. Thanks for any recommendations.

Is 2020 and the HP Touchpad is set to perform faster and better than ever. The perfect device for on-line streaming even in HD 1080.
Not the best for playing games as now days a simple game takes more memory than a desktop linux PC.
Follow this guide to flash ALL ROMs ever created for the HP Touchpad with optimized kernels:
Click HERE for HP TOUCHPAD Optimize for All Android ROMs with Swap Partition
All ROMs performs very similar, you may want to try Evervol 7.1.2, Bluetooth, Camera and Wifi works, even the Zoom Apps works perfectly!
Have fun flashing !

I tried one of the LineageOS ROMS a while back and it was super buggy.

You said it, a while back. Try any ROM listed on that guide and flash it exactly as listed.
Do not do anything as it was done a while back, otherwise it will not work.
Do not use any apps to optimize or change anything as it was done a while back.
Keep it simple, flash and use !

Hello, I'm new here and this is my first thread so if it's not in the right place i apologize...
Firstly, I know nothing about developing and nothing about what a kernel does or anything like this, I just know how to flash things and read tutorials haha
Few questions for my LG p990 - 3 UK
I've looked around and haven't found anything about tethering that helps me, I'm wondering if there's a way of tethering with out being charged for this? I've got completely unlimited internet for my phone but i will get charged if i tether, Is there anyway to bypass this and use my 3G internet on a laptop?
Also about xbmc, I've used xbmc since the original xbox and actually still use my old xbmc xbox on a daily basis but using it for HD films obviously doesn't work, Now xbmc on the optimus is fairly stable but i unerstand that no one's got the tegra2 optimized to work with HD unless it's on the original ROM, Will this change soon or am i going to have to upgrade my phone (Running CM7 and love it and would hate to go back to standard ROM)
And... I've tried other kernels and they just don't work well with CM7 if atall! but i would like to be able to overclock my phone, It's powerful enough but more power is never a bad thing. Is there any very stable released kernels and ROMS that will allow me to overclock and be awesome?!
And the last thing... I read somewhere that S2 korean keyboard is apparently almost as good as the iphones and some mentioned backporting it to work on any android phone? First thing would it be in english? and would it be better than the jellybean keyboard i've got installed at the minute (tried every keyboard on the android market and this one beats them all!)
Thank you, And please go easy on me for being a pain... I'm only 19 and i'm more of a graphic designer and nowhere near a developer.
Ok I am a new at tablets, I have been working with PC, html, VBA for years. I have an Asus TF 101 and was looking to install Ubuntu touch on it. I have seen a thread here://eeepadhacks.net/transformer-hacks/how-to-install-native-ubuntu-on-eeepad-transformer/[/url], and I was wondering what is the best version. Two I also was looking to install a new ROM on my EeePad Transformer, and was told that the best ROMs out right now is the Android_Revolution_HD-EeePad_2.1.0.zip, which features full stock experience with speed/RAM optimizations, better battery life, faster filesystem, and even overclocking kernel. Is this the best ROM for over clock and is it compatible with Ubuntu?
Thanks.

I would recommend that you stick with android as i have used the ubuntu hacks and they are unusable and not even worth your time i would recommend however that you download the nightlies of catkiss 4.3 they are stable for use and are very fast you can use any kernel you would like and i get about 5 hours or so for battery life overclocked you can chroot your device and it will work fine but still i would stick to a laptop and the ubuntu touch version for this device is incomplete and not looking good
Hello Guys,
I have bought a Dell Latitude t02g Table. The specs looks great - Windows 7 Pro - 1.5ghz atom processor, 2 GB Ram, 64GB SSD.
I think the specs are great but its just too damn sluggish when i run facebook or any flash games on it. very unresponsive on normal browsing.
I think this tablet can be great on Google Android x86 platform but After doing a lot of research - I see that people have installed LUBUNTU on it or windows 8 on it and are in a compromised situation. Where Windows 8 has blue screens and etc and moving on Lubuntu, has limited the functionality of he hardware graphics and rotations.
So much money paid for a device that promises a lot and so much disappointment .
I just wish if we could have a forum for this device where the XDA Team can make something super for this device - maybe an android port over that fully works and makes teh tablet smooth like other tablets.
Do you think there is something already out there that has fixed the tablet and makes it shine like a star as advertised? or will there be further enhancements on this and i can wait for it?
Or should i just sell it off for literally peanuts and forget about it
Any help/ hints would be great.
Thanks
AJ
delldell latitude 10 st2
I also wanted to know if for the dell latitude 10 st2 there was solution?
Try the latest windows. That's what I did. To make good use out of it. I installed Kodi n hooked it up to my TV via HDMI worked well. N then sold after a few weeks. Let me know how it goes
There's a fork of android for x86 architecture (http://www.android-x86.org/ ). Some year or two ago I tried few of provided builds but with mixed success. The issues is that bundled drivers are either generic and performance is bad, or different builds have different modules working ( like WiFi but no sound or sound but no WiFi)
It's not that difficult to get two kernel .config files from two most "working" builds and merge them together and build a new kernel, but the process itself is very time consuming (you have to compare files option by option manually, automerge is not an option in this case)
Builds were tegav2, asus_laptop and eeepc
Looks like http://www.android-x86.org/ project moved quite far since that time so maybe you want to give it a try. It's rather brick-safe and you can always go back to Windows/Linux.
Speaking of which, right now my ST has Win10 installed, but performance is bad. I'm thinking of installing clean ubuntu (from Minimal CD) with i3 WM to get maximum out of that hardware. On other laptop with similar specs such setup looks very promising
I upgraded my PC to Asus i7-6700HQ Skylake laptop with 12 gb ram and nvidia 960m VGA. Ubuntu and most GNU linux OSs don't work easily and will usually fail due to the nvidia card not supported by nouveau. OSX has its own headache and never booted to installer. The only non windows OS that runs very good out of the box on my laptop is Remix OS By just adding EXTMOD=i915 it totally ignored the nvidia card and work pretty fast. I have a very powerful android box and it's good for studying, office work, youtubing and even GAMING
Remix OS is relatively new yet it did well to work on most of the new chips which didn't perform well on normal linux. What happened for now? Did the development really stop? Do they need donations (WE ARE HERE READY )? Did they give up on their port to normal PCs? They gave hope to many clinically dead old PCs and a better experience to new touch laptops like mine.
Phoenix OS is good but it has many Chinese stuff and their UI isn't as clean as that of Remix OS
What can we do to get Remix OS development back? The latest version 3.0.207 works pretty well on my PC but I'm still looking for more I want Nougat for example, I want better support for my fn keyboard shortcuts, I want support for keyboard backlight. I want better file explorer. Your latest version is awesome but we still expect more from you guys at Jide. Please don't give up!
Wait 'openthos' stable release
You have 3 options
1-) Phoenix OS
2-) Openthos
3-) Chromium os based build with arc++ (like flintos)
I have flintos but couldn't install Android apps. It supports them? How?

I had hope with Neverware cloudready. I don't know if Chromium OS is coming with Android apps support any soon. They can't distribute the android part easily as it's not open source. And they can't give us something like gapps to flash as there is no clear way to make such a big modification to the OS from the user's side. I have faith in Remix OS, they may be dead now but they are coming soon I hope.

Actually it doesn't have special multiwindow support, it uses *standart app on google play to use multiwindow so you can get on any android 7.x versions
I don't like it, if you try it you can understand what i mean, espacially try multi window, i don't want to tell bad thing about that...
I will try and give feesback. Wil also suggest any other alternatives I get to know. Thanks!

I've spoken to Remix OS Project Manager and they still don't have plans for an update yet. No resources. Too many projects on their head
Ye, I also wanna try out Anbox. Seems very promising.
Worst news I could hear today :'(
This will give better chance for competitors to rise. They have diluted their effort into a larger work. They would have better focused on Remix OS and selling it in normal x86 convertibles.

Has anyone tried this yet?
I'd like to know if it has the same or better performance than Remix OS. Specially on streaming apps. I'd like a solution that can stream smooth like Shield Android TV does but using a computer or Laptop.
So far Remix OS has great performance on the laptop I'm trying it. I also did some build.prop tweaks and I'm using a TV launcher and it sure does compare to my Shield Android TV, however it still does not play some streaming videos as smooth as the Shield Android TV does, it can't handle some 1080P videos in YouTube for example, the SATV can handle 4K. Some streaming apps like DirecTV stutter on the video where the SATV plays them more smooth. Then again, I guess it could be the hardware I'm using. However compatibility using Remix OS is a lot better than using Android TV OS.

The reason is because Jide has left the consumer market, and had completely stopped supporting their consumer products.
Now they only work with enterprises.
Try Phoenix OS instead.

To say the truth, I had not gotten the chance to check Phoenix OS lately.
However, since you have a BayTrail CPU (those did not get much supportĺ I think that you're better off with the Android-X86 LOS or standard Linux (I highly recommend Solus, and the GNOME 3 UI has great support for touch displays), and even then, you will need to compile some of the drivers yourself (such as the touch driver for the screen, until you do so, you will absolutely have to connect a mouse and keyboard).

Thank you so much. I am checking your recommendations as i type this.
My other problem is the 1GB Ram. Which one of those you think will work best.
I am planning on connecting it via HDMI to my TV and running just 1 android app (hmdi audio/video is all i need). I don't care about touchscreen support.

With only 1 GB of RAM, I highly recommend using Android-x86's LOS 15.1 (you will still need to compile the touch driver for the screen, and probably other drivers as well, including audio and HDMI.
Thanks...will let u know how it goes.
Sent from my mobile device
You were right. I wasn't able to find LOS 15.1 but did boot 14.1 and though it did reboot on its own twice, it did finally load. It was however very slow.
I tried it on the TW801 which has 2GB Ram and it was more fluid. Touchscreen did work and so did Wifi. Hdmi audio was the bummer.
I have officially given up installing android on the TW700.....I don't think tje tablet is capable of running it well and even if it did.... HDMI audio will be a lost cause.
Thanks for your help....i appreciate it and at least I did finally got to see android on it.

Wait, how about you try running a standard Linux distribution on it?
You may still need to compile the drivers, however there is a higher chance that things will work properly after running updates and rebooting without any compilations.

Why such an old version?
18.04 has a much newer kernel (I think 4.14 or 4.15), and as such, has a much higher chance of working properly with your hardware (you may still need to compile drivers, however it's not too hard when people have already prepared the code and instructions for you), plus, it uses GNOME rather than Unity (which is discontinued by Canonical), which is at version 3.28, a release that brought many optimizations to system resources, so it should run more smoothly.
Also, when installed, it'll be be much faster, since the internal NAND is much faster than a USB drive, partly because of the fact that it ustilizes the SATA protocol, rather than the USB protocol, and partly because the chip is just way faster.
I thought that my limitation is the poor processor and the RAM. If I had a celeron it would fly.
These tablets are only good for the operating system they came with from the factory.

While an Atom processor is certainly no fun (I have an old Dell Inspiron mini 1018, so I know how it feels), it can be faster than you think.
That old laptop (it was also my first laptop) has a single core Atom CPU, from the N series (the N455), and I was running it with Windows 7.
While it does not have an OS right now (I accidentally broke the keyboard connector on the motherboard while testing RAM sticks for work (I volunteered to do this), and salvaged the hard drive for my desktop (I have 12 hard drives, and 10 trays, 2 of which are are for 2.5" drives. The hard drives were all, save for one, which was bought second hand together with the computer (the case was bought seperately), salvaged from old PCs that people had thrown away), it runs alright on Ubuntu (and slightly better on Solus), however you have a quad-core Atom, which also generates less heat (so less throttling), so it will run much better.
I am not saying that the OS will fly, after all, it does not have a core i3 CPU, however it will outperform your expectation.
Thanks. Today I can't wait to get home to the Android box being delivered.
When I get some time....i will try to load 18.04 and report back. Thanks again.
