Thank you for your awesome work!

Forget about it...

Thank you for the quick reply ! (or should I say dobriden? )
That's quite a deception, as I saw that the hardware was supported. Maybe an older version of WM should work?

It is not just about hardware SoC, it is about software - you need some bootloader (eboot, or as htc uses amss+spl), and many other stuff, which must be compatible with drivers for winmo and what not. Even porting WP7 to HD2 is easier IMHO .

Thank you for the reply,
We might have an access to the bootloader as we have root access to the partition!
Anyway, I'm ready to betatest any work someone could have done

kevin,
I never heard of that model, but I have heard of the CPU. There are multiple manufacturers using that chip in tablets so I am going to direct you to another site that seems to have more info on that chip that may help you.
Goto http://www.freaktab.com - Just search for t RK2818, or checkout 'Finless Bobs' roms.
Good Luck

[Completed] Netflix Tablet App through HDMI results in black screen on TV

Hey XDA! I recently bought a 10.1" tablet (details below), and it works really well, except the camera. But my issue is not that. It uses a mini-hdmi connector and I bought an adapter for it, so I can use it to mirror my tablet to my TV through my HDMI cable. Everything works well, it mirrors YouTube and everything perfectly, except for one app: the Netflix app. While it's connected to my TV and I open Netflix I can browse for movies but when I play them my TV shows nothing but a black screen, audio, and subtitles, unlike my tablet which displays the video. I managed to get video for a split-second when changing aspect ratio, but that only happened once. I tried searching for my exact issue, but got nothing on tablet-to-tv issues. I'd appreciate some help! Here are the specs for my tablet:

Hi!
I can't find a thread with your specific issue. Plenty of Netflix aspect ratio not right, but none with no picture.
Since you didn't mention a manufacturer name, I'm going to assume its not one of the "big" name brands and likely has no section for it here....so you'll need to ask about your issue here....
>*Android Development and Hacking*>*Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
If it is a manufacturer that has a section here, posting in its section would be best.
