Uh, yeah, that browser looks very fake.

Yes it's probably fake. The zip archive is either corrupted or 100.0MB of trash data. At least I can't open it.

Same here. Can't open the ZIP. I'll check what I can find with binwalk.

Yep, it's just null garbage.

$ hexdump cazon_mod_5.1.1_smt210_unoffical_1.0.zip
0000000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000

Unfortunately it was exactly that. Great idea to use hexdump.

I think that T210 (as others have said) will never move past KitKat. Our only hope for now is pmOS which is really unstable and most things are not working properly.

I've managed to get the sound working on a chrooted Debian over my T110, should also work on T210, but yet I didn't figured out how to enable hardware acceleration.
The thing is using chroot you can initialize the hardware using Android then stop Android all together and load the X11 on chroot which will have direct access to fb0 (display) and doesn't depend on Android at all.

 

[lefterisgar]

WOW! That's great! Only problem is that you still rely on Android for initialization and it seems to difficult for me (a complete noob) to accomplish. Also we can get working hardware acceleration if we manage to bump the kernel one major version higher in order to use the etnaviv driver.

For some reason with that recovery I can't boot the system (just boots me in recovery every time, even tried power off), it happened after trying to copy the zip file to internal storage from computer to tab. Flashing TWRP by gr8nole fixed the problem.

Flash this recovery and use busybox reboot from terminal to reboot into system

Then just easier to use the old version, thx anyway

Fair enough, might create a patch soon

I'm really looking forward where this is going, especially the talks of getting it over kitkat, sadly it's a pain in the arse to do, also lt02 will gonna bug out installers that find lt02wifi ect
