Awsome thank you :D

Bugs i found so far:
Sometimes Rotation stopps working (Turning it off and on again helps)
Audio and Video playback is not working.
Lockscreen background, the background of the notification drawer and the notification bar and navigation bar are black. (I guess this has something to do with the gpu?)
Sporadic crashes (screen goes black and the device is off) i don't know what kind of logs you need here?

But its already pretty useable so thank you for this !

Great work! Just installed it on my tablet. Looking really good so far. Will there be future developments? It would be great to add USB OTG. But first there should be GPU and Sound support.

Thank you for you great work.
