Lenovo Yoga and Android?! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello together,
is it basically possible to run Android on a Lenovo Yoga 11? I think the tegra 3 Chip is running in some Devices. Is it possible to bring a existing tegra 3 based Android version to the Yoga device?

Although I'm pretty sure what OP wants can't be done (atleast not easily and without many issues), but I can still hope!
Also does anyone think there is a chance Lenovo would do a native android version of this? That would be great!

[Q]Intel z2580 and Kitkat porting development discussion

Hey!
There are many Intel z2580 android devices out there without proper Kikat updates. Sure they may be lesser known but some have a larger following.
Few manufacturers have made the effort to provide kitkat updates for this modern chipset. I'd say there is a significant interest to at least try to create some generic port of the few kitkat firmwares that are available. This could be the whats needed to get the ball rolling.
What are your thoughts? (Check out the post below for a few details.)
Thank you for reading.

There is an androidx86 project that has already released a 4.4 KitKat android for x86 devices (netbooks etc.) Could something like that be used in Ramos i8, i9 or similar Intel processor devices somehow? I suppose the install process is the hardest part...
Here is the link to the project:

The Dell Venue 3830 tablet (8 and 7 inch-3730) is to my knowledge the only z2580 based android tablet that has an official kitkat release.
Since there are so many different z2580 devices out there without updates newer than 4.2.2 it would be a great project for many people (including me) to see if that Dell rom can be ported and optimized for other z2580 devices.
My major issue is ram on my 1GB z2580 tablet (only ~200mb free after clean reboot). A kitkat update would in many ways solve that issue and make the tablet a solid useable device. (No my kernel does not support swap.) The cpu is quite fast and a shame to waste.
Edit: Asus Zenfone 5 and 6 are both Intel z2580 devices with official kitkat updates, (and cyanogenmod seems to be supported, surprisingly). Their roms could be useful for the z2580 community. Possibly moreso than the Dell Venue since reports show the kitkat firmware to have some stability issues for some people.

Remix OS on x86 Intel tablets

Hi,does anyone know if there s any way to boot remix os on intel x86 android tablets? I have an Asus k016 and lollipop here is very sloooowww even with root and removed bloatware. I wish on a marshmallow update but sadly I m sure it will not happen. So it would be great to run remix os on those tablets
Is it a purely Android tablet? It may not have a traditional bootlader/EFI to be able to boot RemixOS.
Besides, i doubt that you will gain much more in terms of speed as Remix OS is also based on Android 5.1 Lollipop.
Asus K013 is commercially sold as MeMO Pad 7 (ME176C). Specification-wise, it's pretty similar to the Asus Fonepad 7 (ME372CG) that I own. I gotta admit it's somewhat surprising to see that a device with a better SoC running Lollipop poorly...guess I made the right choice by not upgrading from KitKat!
That being said, while I haven't found my KitKat tablet to be slow, it would still be nice to have features like proper multi-window support and such, which are coming to upstream Android in Android N or later, which likely won't me available for my device anymore. Hence why it'd be interesting to try out Remix OS.
On a related note, unlike the OP's MeMO Pad 7, the Fonepad series supports telephony (hence the name Fonepad); does Remix OS support any kind of telephony features at all or is it purely a PC(/tablet)-only OS?
I already tried to install RemixOS on my Dell Venue 8 Pro, but it fails to boot, because it has an 32-bit UEFI.
The 64-bit processor would work like a charme, but the the 32-bit UEFI is blocking to install 64-bit operating systems.
Very sad story...
Kit kat was faster on k016 too but I upgraded to lollipop and removed all the bloatwares from Asus. Now android is almost stock but sometimes is sloowww, almost like a nexus 7 2012 with lollipop. After the upgrade to marshmallow and with greenify ,nexus 7 is great, but sadly I think k016 will never get it.
I would like to try remix OS on this tablet because it could be a little better maybe, and multitasking on a 8" screen would be great

Phoenix OS on Minix X8

Hi all,
Been toying around with putting a full blown multitasking Android OS on my X8 which runs on an Amlogic S802 SOC.
I found Phoenix OS (http://www.phoenixos.com/) which supports some ARM devices as well as X86 devices.
My question is whether it will work on the X8 as it states on the Phoenix website that the only ARM devices currently supporting are the Nexus 7, 9 and 10.
Any help would be appreciated in terms of attempting to get this running without bricking the device.
TIA.

downgrading Lenovo Tab 7 TB-7304I (Android 7)

i bought Lenovo Tab 7 Essential TB-7304I - 1GB RAM with Android 7.0 (Nougat) pre-installed. the device is too slow and i believe that the 1GB ram cannot handle Android 7.0 at all!
i searched for lower Android version (6 or even 5) to install it on this device with no success.
maybe becuase i'm not familiar with Android anyone can help me finding Android 6.x or Android 5.x that can be installed on Lenovo Tab 7 Essential TB-7304I. Or the available CUSTOM ROM if any also i would appreciate if you can suggest a page for the downgrading steps
Anyone can help!!!

Any update please
Have you unlocked bootloader and installed custom recovery?
There are no custom roms for this device. Even 4pda has nothing and this tablet is popular amongst the Russians due to the price.

Amlogic CX S819 CFW

Hello Guys, I want to change my Android with newer version, because my Android box works on Android 4.4. I want to install newer version of Android like 6.0.1 or newer, but I can't find newer version on Android.

It's because Amlogic never released the updated SDK for that chipset. That's why it's nearly impossible to do it, unless you know porting and can scrape off things from similar chipsets.
