    Android 4.4.4 tablet revival

    Hello: Let's see ... In my OP I wrote: Nothing about Google, what it does and how it does it. Or if any of the other corporations doing more or less the same thing are preferable to Google. I also ended my post with this relevant bit: No, not at all surprised. And have commented on that...

    Android 4.4.4 tablet revival

    Hello: Yes, that's the link I posted in a previous post. Like I said previously, the idea is not to do that but to see (as a proof of concept if you will) what you can do with it besides sending it to a landfill and learn a bit more about how this Google Android scam works. For now I can...

    Android 4.4.4 tablet revival

    Hello: Quoting myself to make a correction to my OP. For some reason, [CPU-Z 1.43] identifies the chip in this tablet as a [Rockchip RK 3066 - 1.20 GHz] which would make it a Dual-Core ARM Cortex-A9, but that is wrong. The chip is a Quad-Core RK 3126 ARM Cortex-A7 running at up to 1.3GHz ...

    Android 4.4.4 tablet revival

    No, not me. I do not use Outlook/Hotmail, Yahoo or Gmail. I have an email account based in AUS which I have had for over 10 years now. Has POP3/SMTP/IMAP and a lot of other things that I don't use but some people find useful. My Linux box runs Pegasus Mail (through Wine) with which I access my...

    Android 4.4.4 tablet revival

    Hello: New member here. Admin: please excuse me if this is not the right place to post this, move it as appropiate. Recently gifted to me, I am attempting to keep a (practically) unused Logicom L-Element 741G tablet from the landfill. It has a Rockchip RK 3066 - 1.20 ghZ SOC, 494MB RAM and...
