[Q] Android 2.2 or newer HTPC - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All.
I got the idea of "Android Smart TV Box" http://www.maplin.co.uk/smart-tv-entertainment-box-powered-by-android-586939
Has anyone built a HTPC based off Android? As i have a spare PC knocking around something on the lines of like a intel pentium 4 HT 3.00 GHz, 1GB RAM, I tried Googling "Android HTPC" but did not get very much in return
Any tips would be great

[Q] [TABLET] choices, choices, choices!

i've put this in the android section as the tablet i'm querying is android
sooo, ive got a couple of hundred £s and im looking at tablets
now i can get a sub £200 7" android 3.0 tablet, 1ghz, 8gb ram, wifi, mini usb, hdmi, 3g, microsd
or i can go £200 10.1", android 2.3, 1ghz, 8gb ram, wifi, mini usb, hdmi, 3g, microsd
now, should i go smaller screen, v3 android, or v2 larger screen...
...can (if the hardware supports it) v2.3 be updated to v3.0 later?
thanks!
I think that no tabled have 8 GB of ram. Most have 8 of internal memory.

My recent blog post my help you choose a bit. I concentrated on 7" ones cause plan to buy one.
And tablet running 2.3 can be updated to newer versions if there will be vendor (or community) update.

Simple rule: avoid devices which do not have subforum here at XDA
this is all messed up! i can now find the same spec 7" for £150! the price range seems to be £60, £150, £450!
starting to love the galaxy tab 10.1 mind, but this seems to be the top end, and it seems a bit like buying a top end dell... it may be supercharged, but its still a dell!

[Q] Anyone tried Pico/Micro Technology with Android?

Curious if anyone has used this technology...I want to try it out on my Atrix 4g but the pico projector I have doesn't have an HDMI port
The pico projector I bought for work to use with a laptop for presentations goes well with all sorts of other tech the model I have currently doesn't do HDMI but I know there is a model that does.
My Model is the AAXA P4 Pico Projector <<(noob so I can't link but you can find them on Amazon for fairly cheap)
I've seen some videos of people online strapping the projectors to their iphones and using it as an augmented reality game kind of thing. My first thought was to see if anyone has been able to use this technology with apps and such with their Android phones that have HDMI...as like I said the model pico projector P4 by AAXA didn't have the appropriate port, although I could scan my phone like a USB drive.
The Pico Projector I picked up can be found at amazon for fairly cheap. And the HDMI model is actually comparably priced better and can also be found at Amazon for a ridiculously low price: AAXA p3 Pico Projector. (<<< noob so no link again)
Anyways my biggest interest is to see if my PSroms can run and project off my phone...that would just be too good to be true.
Let me know what you guys think.

[Q] Android 4.4 on Pandigital Supernova

Hey all. I am really new to the forum so I apologize if this is posted in the wrong place. There seems to be a million places this could get posted so Ill post here to start off!
My gf's mother gave her this cheap tablet called the Supernova from Pandigital. As some of you might now, Pandigital went out of business so there is no support for this tablet. It is still running android 2.3.1. I read that andoird 4.4 only needs 512mb of RAM and felt like it is the perfect opportunity to upgrade this tablet. My gf gave it to me to tinker with so I would love to get KitKat on it!
So i guess my question is how can I start learning more about installing android on devices so I can possibly put it on this tablet? Also where is the best place to post about this device.
Tablet Specs:
Screen: 600x800 7or8in
OS: Android 2.3.1
RAM: 512mb
Memory: 4gb
Ext. Memory: 16gb Micro SD card
Proccessor: Samsung S5PV210
CPU Type: ARM Coretex-A8
CPU Speed: 1.06GHz
GPU: Unknown
Bluetooth: 2.1
Wifi: 802.11 b/g/n
Almost 80 people have viewed this post and no one has responded. Can someone at least point me in the right direction of learning how to install or modify android to work with this device? Or even the basic tutorials that can help me learn about coding for android and making this work.
