Hi All,
I have a Symbol/Motorola MC7090 it's currently running Windows Mobile 5.0 with messaging and security feature pack.
I cannot connect via Wifi and I cannot get the barcode scanner to work.
It was used by a developer to test there apps, I was told that it was reset back to factory specs.
Has anyone got a ROM so that I can put Android on this??
Best Regards

I hate to revive this post, but I have the same sort of question. Please let me know if I need to start a new thread. In my case, I have two ROMs from "Zebra" (who seems to have taken over this part of that company). Mine is also the MC40, but the question I have is what do I need to do to essentially convert this from a Windows 7 CE device, to an Android device. I have the drivers for both the Win version and the Android version. I also have 3 of the Android devices and 2 of the Win devices. The model numbers are exactly the same, only the OS is different. Im doing this for the company I work for. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hey I have a toshiba sattelite laptop computer, purchased on christmas of 09' and I'm interested to see if I am able to install another operating software on it, being android OP system because I recently heard of a linux based android OP. Can anyone help?
I realize that there may already be a thread about this and if there is (and it's not one I started) then please link it here so I can go read it. I've read just about every thread on this topic and I still can't find the answer I'm looking for:
In essence this phone is perfect in every way that matters to me...except for the fact that I can't enable Wifi-Calling. I have tried using the "Wifi-Calling" app in the Google Play Store, I have also tried modifying the setting (wfc_ims_mode=2) in adb, but still nothing. I guess part of my issue is that I can't understand how, if this ROM (Funtouch OS 4.0) is based on Android 8.1 and Android 8.1 supports WiFi-Calling...why this ROM does not?
Anyone with any ideas I welcome your feedback. Also, there are a series of ADB global settings that I can seem to find out what they do. Anyone have any ideas? Could any of these be the key to getting this thing working on this phone?
vivo_wifi_2_mobile_enabled=0
volte_vt_enabled1=0
volte_vt_enabled2147483644=0
volte_vt_enabled=1
wfc_ims_enabled1=0
wfc_ims_enabled=1
wfc_ims_mode=2
wfc_ims_roaming_enabled1=0
wfc_ims_roaming_mode=2
Thanks

Hello...I'm trying to get Android working on an older tablet/laptop (Dell Venue 11 Pro i3). No matter which distro/version I try (and I've tried lots, both custom releases and the Android-x86 project), I always end up with no wif or bluetoothi. Android installs and runs no problem every time, but without connectivity...
I'm a newb with this but not with PC tech in general. I assume I am missing a fundamental step in how to install and configure/add wifi support but I can't find a comprehensive set of instructions or even some rough steps as to how I can add support for my wifi chip (Intel).
Can anyone point me to some good reading that will educate me on how to do this? (...or just tell me I'm SOL if it doesn't work after installing)
Thanks much. I've been trying to find this information for many days now for fear of it being something that's obvious to everyone else.

You need to make sure that whatever OS you are installing has the correct OS and correct kernel that is built specifically for your device's model number. The kernel is what allows the software to use your hardware, kinda like drivers on PC, if the kernel isn't correct, your hardware doesn't work correctly, regardless of whether the OS works or not.
You need to be using your specific model number to find a compatible ROM/OS for your device.
What is your device's specific model number?
What android version are you trying to install?

I realize now that I've posted in the wrong place....but I'm referring specifically to Android-x86 and the many variations out there (Remix, Prime, Android x86 Project, another whose name escapes me right now).
I've never seen hardware specific versions of Android x86, but I've always wondered if users need to recompile the kernel for their specific hardware...yet I've never seen that mentioned anywhere.
I don't think I have hardware that's super obscure. Dell Venue Pro 11 (7130 MS)...i3, Intel HD4000 graphics, Qualcomm/Atheros/Dell 1537 wifi/bt. The most recent version I tried was 8.1 from the Android-x86 project site. Each variation I try runs fine in every other way, but without connectivity.
3 years ago somebody downgraded somebody I met at the internet successful my Samsung J5 to Android 5.
Now I think about the possibility to downgrade my Samsung A7 (A750GN) to Android 4.
Would it be possible?
In know with such a questions a lot of people want to know why.
It's simple.
I love how 4 looks.
I could still enjoy 5 if I have too.
And Android is gone the same negative way like Microsoft with Windows 10.
Every new Android Version has more and more rubbish included I don't use and I don't want,
Today is (for me) my Android Version a overloaded fat elephant with so many bad functions I can't turn off.
I would like to have a "Android Lite" and I would like to have a Android that looks like 4 or 5.
But would it be possible?
I have never ever done something like this for myself.
That last time with my J5 somebody installed a remote control on my laptop and I plugged in my mobile and this guy has done everything remote controlled.
I have still to today no idea who he was and from where he was.
But it worked fine.
He downgraded my J5 to Android 5 and he changed something in such a way the mobile never ask for a update and when I try to force a update I get the wrong answer the newest update in installed.
Absolute great.
That is what I'm looking for with my A7.
Any ideas?
It is NOT possible to downgrade your A7 to android 5.
When a new phone comes out , for example the A7 2018 , it was launched with android 8.
It can not be downgraded to any version below the version it came out with.
Even after updating from android 8 to the latest android 10 , i don't think it is possible to even downgrade to android 8 again (because samsung updates, patch your phone with the new update.)
Galaxy J5 was released with android 5 touchwiz, the android 5 system customized by Samsung.
The person who was connected to your computer has installed a custom rom (probably an AOSP rom , as you described being a "lite version".)
AOSP roms are roms without the Samsung add-ons and customizations , created by developers here on XDA.
For the moment , an AOSP android 10 for A7 2018 is not available , but there is another way to get a "lite " version of android 10 on your device.
As it needs a lot of reading and understanding on android development, i do not sugges you doing so .
It is called GSI and you can find by reading in the correct thread , for example :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a7/help/how-to-install-gsi-samsung-galaxy-a7-t4165617
Please , be aware that you might brick your device if you decide to experiment with its system.
Hope this helps you.
Hi, I got myself a smart projector running on Android. Unfortunetely the deveopers installed a really old version and it seems there is no way to update them. When trying to add an account to the system or let alone update the system tells me that it can not communicate with the google servers. So, I am planning to install a new Android version on the smart projector.
Can anyone point me towards a good resource (on the net) that tells me what information I need to have, which files from the current installation I need to keep (i.e. drivers) before installing whoch ROM?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Sounds familiar - having the same problem: My Philips Picopix 4935 is a splendid device but its Android 4 isn't much fun (especially with newer audio/video-formats).
What model do you have?
