Hi All, I have searched high and low but this is such an old device many of the links I follow are no longer working.

I want to install the latest version of Kodi possible on this device which seems to require 4.4.2 I am currently on CM7 olympus 4.1.2

I need HDMI output, Wifi, and BT would be a nice to have but not essential. Don't need any proper phone features. Any advice on what works and still is downloadable?

My best guess base on searching is Olympus_kitkat_finalv2 but it was not clear to me if the original HDMI issues had been solved.

Any advice is appreciated.

You are correct that most of the files are not available. HDMI has been an issue for a while. Uncortunately it is not working on the version you mention. The last time i had it working was on pre-development leaked 4.0.4. It might have been working on the beanstalk rom, but i don't remember. That would have been equal to the version you have now though

I think you mean cm10, not cm7, since 4.1.2 was a cm10 release.

If you're willing to operate without HDMI, then the 4.4.4 will work.

If you want hdmi output and fingerprint scanner support, you will remain on 2.3.6. There is no support of both at 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, or 4.4 (5.0 and up not tried by me, but is based on android 4.4 kernel (3.1)). I understand your desire, but its not happening.
