I am trying to install a custom ROM on this old tablet Lenovo B8080 which also goes by a really confusing name Lenovo Yoga Tablet 10 HD+.
However, the few forum posts I find are outdated, or the resources download page are expired, or the tablet is confused with Yoga Tab 2 or 3.
This model cannot even be found on the XDA forums.
In short, does anybody know what customs ROMs are compatible with this weird tablet B8080?
up,
searching also newer rom for this.
Since there are similar models to your device, you can try porting a ROM for it. Porting is basically editing a ROM made for another device to fit your device. Know that it is dangerous, and could potentially brick your tablet. Be careful, and good luck!

I've been reading this "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101094&page=183" post for a long time where they public a CyanogenMod that can be installed on certain models of tablets. I realize that there are two kinds of Coby Kyros MID 7015, One that comes with GB and other that don't.
I have the non-GB tablet, allready rooted and using a watery rom but i think that CyanogenMod will work a better, so...
In that forum they said that there's a rom for the non-GB tablet, but i was unable to find it. I would like if anyone could help me telling me where's the file or where to search.
If there's any procedure besides to install CWM on a rooted table, so please let me know.
Thanks for answering.
Dear Devs. I purchased an Aoson M1013 tablet. Basically it is a 10.1 inch cheap quad-core tablet with A9 Cortex processor, 1GB of RAM. Although the specs are not bad, I have the feeling that the software side is responsible for the tablet's weakness. Under weakness I mean several things and symptoms. The tablet died on me twice in a way that it was only willing to boot into its factory recovery which didn't let me move on to any direction. First I sent it to a tablet shop where they refreshed the factory firmware. Then it was working for a time but the the same thing happened again. I managed to reflash the factory rom by myself, I didn't want to pay any more for maintenance, I'm not a wealthy person. Overall there is the experience that it partially freezes for shorter-longer periods of time. It is exactly like it's lagging or something. It freezes at times and then continues operating with hectic window movement while it's trying to make up for the touch input done while it was temporally freezing. It seems to be a processor issue but I believe it is the question of software and governors maybe. Upon activating wifi these freezes mulitply and the tablet gets really slow. Other times it is really smooth and quickly running, this is why I think it is a software issue. It feels as if it had a soul or something, like there was a ghost in the machine or something. Therefore I would like to ask devs to compile a well-working custom rom for this device. So far I haven't found any of these online, although I was able to root the tablet and install CWM on it. Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Yes, that's correct that we have no forums or threads about your device.
But if you want, you can build your own CWM recovery with these guides
XDA University: Porting ClockworkMod Recovery to New Devices
Android Development and Hacking > Android Software Development > [GUIDE] Compile CWM Recovery
About root, you can use Framaroot => [ROOT] Framaroot, a one-click apk to root some devices
Good luck
Root and CWM done
Hello
Thank you for the quick reaction, CWM and ROOT are already done. Now what I really crave for is a simple custom rom with no special requests, just a smooth responsive ability to operate the hardware of the tablet. It really seems like the factory ROM is not doing what it is supposed to. As for custom ROMs, I don't know if ROMs for other devices can be installed to this tablet or not. I would like to know if there are any compatible possibilities.
For the last part of your request, I really don't know. It seems that you're the only one with this device here.
But if you follow this guide, you can build your own rom for your specific device

Good luck
Good day ladies and gentlemen.
I am a Lenovo tab A7-20f user I know it's not even a mid range tab but it does the works for me and didn't break my bank.
When bought this tab I came to the XDA to check some cool stuffes for this particular device and I got disappointed because nothing was related to this device. Until now there is no custom recovery or a custom ROM for this device. All I can see the custom ROM and custom recovery for Lenovo Tab 2 A7-10 & Tab 2 A7-30.
I don't know why there many users (tab-A7-20f) were abandoned and nobody cares no developer cared about us. No body spend a 30 minutes to do something for this device. I can see when I google the device it bring us to Russian forum and they also helpless they only have stock roms 4.4.2 & 5.0 (not working)
Guys if there is one developer if he seeing this if he really needs to help us pleasedo something for our device my device feels like an orphan.
Hi there and welcome to assist,
Unfortunately there is nothing about your question on XDA forum. Try a Google search first.
Good luck
Hello everyone,
I'm new to this platform and to be honest a bit overwhelmed. Apologize if this thread is in the wrong section.
I should also mention that I'm not too familiar with technical points.
I own an old Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (P5110) which claims its Android version 4.2.2 is still the most recent one for this device.
So I'm looking for a way to update to a newer versuon, at least Android 6.
My first question is which Android version you suggest?
Second one, how exactly do I do this (is there a step by step tutorial)?
Third one what are the risks? I read something about data loss and completely broken devices?
Thank you in advance.

Mate, I'm on the same boat. Same tablet, also overwhelmed The only response to your post points to some custom ROM page but the instructions are not detailed. I thought I had to throw my tablet but it seems like it still has some life to breath if I can get it a newer ROM (many apps are not supported anymore with Android 4.2).
I think the first thing to do is root the device but where to start? I'd prefer using linux with adb, etc.
There is a lot of stuff here. Is there anyone that has taken the time to write a detailed step by step guide somewhere?
BTW, my intention is not only to revive the device but to ditch all Google crap apps. In an ideal world, I would have installed a ROM from /e/ Foundation, but they do not support the device so I guess my next best bet is some custom ROM that uses LineageOS?
Hi,
First you need to root your device and install TWRP recovery:
More info here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...final-root-single-step-twrp-recovery-t3404779
It's an old thread but you'll get the idea.
See this one as well:
https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-samsung-galaxy-tab-2/
You'll need to find the correct version for your model otherwise you'll and up with a nice paperweight.
After this, you'll be able to back up your current ROM and install new ones. Unfortunately, I have a different model of Tab 2 that has no available custom ROM's so I can't say which ROM is better than other. I would read more in the link provided for slim roms.
To get rid of the installed bloatware and even Google apps I used SD Maid. See my thread below with what's left on my tablet (Disclaimer: it's a barebone setup and not all things work so I don't advise going that deep unless you're willing to take the risk of having a bricked tablet. You were warned!):

Complete Guide to Root and Update Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

So recently I found an old Orange Roya in my drawer and thought that it's not that bad of a phone and maybe I could revived with a custom ROM as now it's running Kitkat (4.4.4). Now I've never flashed a custom ROM on my phone and I don't know much about that kind of stuff but I saw a video by Budget Builds where he managed to get Android 10 on a Samsung S2 so I thought as my phone has similar specs maybe a could do the same. So I searched far and wide and actually found an XDA thread about a custom ROM for my phone but than there are no instructions whatsoever in there, only a couple of dead links (Here it is, if that helps with anything: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...tel-pop2-ot-5042x-root-recovery-roms.3224875/ ). Besides that there was nothing at all in terms of any kind of ROM for this phone not only for android 10 but for any android it just seems that it's such a niche device that no one cares for it. So is that it? Is it just stuck running an ancient version of android basically acting as e-waste or is there anything I can do still to make it useful?
(Sorry for my English and lack of knowledge in terms of any of this but I really hope that something can be done to revive that phone.)
