Any luck?
I'm also stuck with this problem...

Since HP officially shutting down phone operations, maybe it is possible to ask them for whatever is needed to so that the community can develop android Rom? Something like happened in old good days with HTC HD2 (i know they didn't provide officially but they released HTC Desire which was on android)?

I have also HP elite X3 and it is imposible for now to install android into phone, I would likte to try is that exist.
Also In dec.2017 there is a big ugrade 1709 for windows and HP elite X3.
So this platform for sure is not dead, also for me better is to run android apps on WP than to install android.
After a couple of years I was back to microsoft, android i so buggy but on different side there is much more apps on android.
We just need emulatr for android or side install for apk.s

I am talking to people in HP to see what we can do.

Me too
Hello to all,
I'm a WP die hard fan, however with the imminent death of the platform, I would like to continue to use this device and explore its potential. If anyone has any info on ROMs that can be ported to the HP Elite X3 that would be great.

i also want a fix for this....

One more subscriber for this solution. I have 2 Elite X3 phones and will be twice happier to have Android on both devices. This is the best hardware and its really deserve Android.

Yes, I would like that, too. The hardware is awesome, but WP10 is dead. Apps are disappearing now...

Yep, just reached the end of the road with the Elite X3 with the withdrawal of Messenger, the family communications medium.
The frustrating bit is that I would take it almost as read that someone in HP's skunkworks would have made a decent stab at porting Android to the X3, but it remains at the bottom of some virtual filing cabinet.
How good would it be of HP to put it on Google Play ...

Any news on Android porting to HP Elite x3?

Hello,
Some new about a solution to install android on x3 ??

ZTE S7Q (Chinese Tablet)

Hi Everyone,
Not sure if this is the right place (did not find a specific ZTE tablet forum - but i guess all the chinese tablets are pretty much the same).
I recently got this device, It's pretty nice, not strong or anything (like the nexus 7 i initially wanted) but it was given to me for free.
My only problem with the device is the operating system version, android 4.2, I have also nexus 4 device and going back to 4.2 feels a bit how to say, laggy, old fashioned.
Can someone guide me please / link and also explain if it's possible somehow to get this tablet to android 4.4 or even 4.3.
Thanks you very much,
Anyone knows maybe? even a general answer not only to the zte tablet, regarding the chinese tablets and firmwares.

I am hacking this same tablet right now. ZTE is just a clone brand. Really, it is a Rockchip rk3188 processor, and some GPU. I hope this helps you find the right ROM. The bootloader is already unlocked, so that's not going to be a problem. Download this to identify your HW further:

Xiaomi Mi 5 - Windows 10 ROM

Dear All,
We need to support this new thread to have "Windows 10" ROM in our Mi 5/Mi 5 Pro devices, so if anyone know any new news or if someone know how to port the ROM then update this thread directly.
Thanks and I appreciate all your efforts.
What a way to work around the eta rule mate.

Hi, thank you.

Hopefully soon.
www.technobuffalo.com/2016/02/25/microsoft-said-to-be-planning-windows-10-roms-for-xiaomi-mi-5-oneplus-2/[/url]
BY KILLIAN BELL | FEBRUARY 25, 2016
Microsoft is said to be developing new ROMs that will allow Xiaomi Mi 5 adopters and those with a new OnePlus smartphone to swap Android for Windows 10 Mobile. The firmware would allow potential consumers to try out Microsoft’s latest platform without buying a new device.
Microsoft did a similar thing last year when it released a Windows 10 Mobile ROM for the Xiaomi Mi 4. Clearly, that experiment went well, so the company is looking to do the same for the new Xiaomi Mi 5 announced this week, the OnePlus 2, and the upcoming OnePlus 3.
Would be a good thing for the smartphone, more freedom of choice
Dear All,
Thanks for your comments. You know, I am thinking if there is a way to have "Dual Boot" or even "Triplex Boot" because it's suitable for 64/128 versions. We hope to see something new soon.
Thanks.
I have a Xiaomi Mi 4 with Windows 10, I'm waiting now for the version for mi5
Waiting with open arms as I just recently purchased a mi5

Any news?
Would be wonderful to get a Windows 10 rom for my Mi5
why the hell would you want windows 10 ARGGHHH, just buy a windows phone then
Ive had it on my mi4 before, its fine,
Ask M$ for that, AFAIK Win10 ROMs for Mi4 is also provided by M$ only, no 3rd party builds available.

You know that putting M$ just makes your posts seem daft even though the information is correct. Why not call them by their real name?

Oh I know it is, just letting you know that it puts across a childish attitude, but maybe that's a correct view.
Any news on development?
im waiting too. there is no interesting native windows phone currently on sale, hp elite x 3 and lumai 950xl are too big for me, 950 has old cpu and looks ugly, mi5 is my onl hope, but i see no progress since announcement
I've read microsoft is dismantling mobile os sector, no more phones, i don't know if it's a rumor or not, but if it's true, no more developing in this case, for old or new devices like mi5...

Maru OS for Pocophone?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iF7yK7HAyVM
Any talented dev who would be interested in building Maru OS for our beloved pocophone?
It runs lineage OS and when you connect it to a screen it runs ubuntu or debian. With the Hardware of the pocophone it would be a beast.

CHEERS
The new release of maru os 0.6 just came out. Check it out!!!

Wow this is awesome..... @Swapnil Soni
I would love to see Maru Os running on Poco.
Sounds interesting Would definitley try
I found out that poco doesn't support slimport. In that case if someone ports maru os to our phone, only way of connecting it to external display would be using chromecast.

Yes, that's sadly true. It's a pity that the pocophone does not have hdmi-out.

Some news about maru os. Starts at 8.30 min
Great Interview given by the main dev of maru os at the great podcast late night Linux. The interview starts at minute 24.
Late Night Linux: Late Night Linux – Episode 59 https://latenightlinux.com/late-night-linux-episode-59/ [00:24:15]
Still hoping that we find any talented dev who would be interested in porting for our beloved poco. Imagine you just connect your phone to google Chromecast and you have a fully fledged desktop PC up running.
@dianxxyyzz would that be a device you would be interested in helping to port?
@abhishek987 have you heard of maru OS?
Wish you all a great weekend
Yes lol , I will build for pico f1 as soon as I get it . I already thinked about it
If it's wireless and Chromecast only, that would limit the usability of the desktop part a lot. Chromecast isn't actually that popular where I live, and not easily buyable either

Sure a wired connetion seems always better in terms of lag but according to Pretam d'Souza (one of the Main dev) chromecast works fairly well. Another option might be miracast.

That's awesome. Looking forward. Thanks for you're efforts and pushing maru OS forward ans making it available for Mord devices.
For all who don't dianxxyyzz is the dev who build already maru OS for the HTC 10, Samsung s9 and I belive some other devices.
I believe that you'll be quite happy with the poco f1 . it's just such a great devices.

Yes , thanks I would really like to see Poco running full Linux distro , I already watched to get one and will build soon so keep in touch . Also it must work with displaylink if it DNT have internal displayport . So DNT worry about wired display it have to be good. We already have tested this and all works great in displaylink setup
I hope this project will materialize.
I`m willing to be a tester.
Maru OS won't be interested to most devs since its still using Oreo as base. Same case with Ubuntu touch too.

Maru now supports wireless display so that should help immensely to kickstart development on pocophone. I'd be willing to do testing.

Root and (if exists) Custom ROM for the Teclast P10HD

Hi,
I own the Teclast P10HD https://www.teclast.com/en/zt/P10HD/
I want to root it, and if possible install Android 10, I have searched the forums but found nothing about it (There's a thread about the older P10 which has different hardware).
Any help is highly appreciated.
I've been trying to root the device but traditional methods don't work as the boot partition can't be unlocked, also the key method used for other devices made by the same chipset manufacturer doesn't work either. There's a flashing tool provided by the manufacturer but it only works on Windows and I don't own a copy so I couldn't try it. Let's hope someone is able to unlock the device as the hardware is pretty decent
This device has something odd.
Antutu reports the same speed of a mate pad t8 and many other tablets, but it's not very responsive.
I think android is not very optimized for this unisoc, what do you think?
It get much nicer with poco launcher and mi camera but still it looks a bit slow for a 2020 device

you need to bear in mind that it has only 3 GB RAM, which is not ideal for a 2020 android device. I use it mainly for internet relating activities and social network apps. I installed some lite games and they work fine. Given its extremely low price, its value is good.
Did you manage to find any custom ROM that works on it?

The mate pad has 2gb so that's not the question.
The p10hd can run everything, it gives no problems but generally speaking it is not that fluid.
I know Huawei or xiaomi can probably add some optimizations here and there, maybe a version 10 of android and a teclast custom launcher could help it. Let's see if they prefer to launch new devices or are now working on those they already produce to experiment a bit.
However, unisoc is pretty good, now that chromeos is getting lighter, it would be nice to see it on this soc

Sorry but I didn't get this line. What is Unisoc? and what does chromium have to do with it?
By the way, does Teclast usually upgrade the software or are we gonna stuck to what we got?

No idea on teclast upgrade policies but I guess we're OK considering that m16 is still on android 8.
Unisoc is the cpu soc brand. It's quite cheap but not bad at all, I was only guessing how chromeos would run on it. Chromeos includes android and Linux apps, it's going to be an os we will find very often in the next years. I would try a color e-ink too in it, to make cheap long-lasting edu tools available to a huge lot of people: add the embedded 4g/5g connection support and you get wherever you want

Astell&Kern Kann Alpha GMS & Android update

Hello, I have Astell&Kern Kann Alpha DAC and I have a question about gms. Is possible to Make a ROM from the source code (link is below) with GMS included or made an upgraded version of Android? The actual source code is Android 9, and I'd like to have Android 10/11. It is a good DAC but without GMS only with Open-Service provider, there is a big limitation of using 3rd party apps. I haven't any experiences with Android modifications, so I wanted to ask. Thank you.

I know it´s been nearly a year and a half . But I´m stil curious to know if you ever got any further in your search for custom firmware for the discontinued A&K devices
Kind regards

Unfortunately, no. I didn't found any custom ROM for A&K devices.
@DasXardas
That´s a bummer. I wish I could help you further, but i´m also just a frustrated user stucked using the AK connect app for android and streaming Tidal over DLNA . I assume you are stucked with this solution also ?
I own the ak70 . Really premium device , and it´s typical to see, that this market , like the electronics market in general, is all about selling new devices , rather than maintaining the older models.
But on the positive side, it´s a big plus that the AK connect app is holding the older devices from being a paperweight ;-)
