Just wondering if anyone has come across anything which might indicate that Android may be able to be installed on the Hermes?
I have seen videos of Kaiser (TyTn II) running an older version, and the specs are quite similar between the two handsets.
With cookers moving onto newer devices, it would be nice to see some development of Android on the TyTn to bring new life into the old dog. God knows we will not see any new windows mobile versions past 6.1.
Anyone else agree or have any comments? I think Android may be a great alternative to this excellent phone.
Just my 2 cents.
Hi dravenb_4u,
please discover the search function in this forum first.
There had been a lot of threads discussing this issue so far:

To run any kind of android code on hermes there's the need of porting a useful linux to this platform.
See this thread as a starting point:

I like the hermes very much and it's still my favorite phone.
Best one for everyday usage and to play around with gimmicks.
It's quite normal that people are more curious about new devices.
But should i spend so much money for an up to date gadget???
I won't!
At least there are quite a lot of posts in the hermes section.
So i think because it is a very useful phone some people will keep it alive
Also have o look at openmoko.org and you'll see what could be done with opensource .
Best regards,

Hello guys
I know its the wrong forum, but I own a blackstone, so this is my home to me I want to ask you if there's a similar forum like this one for the Samsung devices. Cause I saw the Omnia II and I'm very, very interested in it, its a beautiful device for me, it supports native divx and has AMOELD. So, I'm highly impressed. My problem is, that I absolutely love this forum, only with xda is my blackstone how it is.. And I fear that there is nothing similar for Samsung.. Is there any ROM-cooking? Is there such an support? Customizing? Development? If thats not there, I have a serious problem and I think I'll stay with my blackstone. So now the real, final question: is there anything similar for the Omnia devices? Thanks a lot for your answers!! And sorry for posting stuff about other brands but HTC Anyway, HTC rocks!

seems to be great why?
a little more info in your TS would be nice, otherwise posting this is meaningless
Probably spam...
I'm done with all IWatch clones... I have a pretty nice one here, but when I tried to order a larger quantity from SHEN ZHEN EYANG TECHNOLOGY CO.,LTD, they suddenly cut all communication... So I'm done with clones of the Apple Watch, most of these companies don't know what they're doing imo...

I think it is great for its attributes (i'm sorry i don't speak engligh so well and i use this word because i don't know the right one) because after reading details of this smartwatch in the description in my opinion it is better than the others that i saw (not for the design but for screen resolution, RAM and the others attributes).
i' m sorry what dies TS mean?
I didn't want to spam. I'm just sharing on this thread what i'm finding during my search of the perfect smartwatch for me. I'm very sorry if you think that i want to spam. It isn't my aim
TS = Topic Start, a topic start normally contains info on a watch, pics, specifications
Specs look good. Can anyone confirm that this has quad core, 1gb/16gb? Anyone tried to root & flash?
Google play support?
Hello All,
I recently installed a test game console emulator to see if it would work on my android head unit. Gladly, the emulator works and seems to operate at full speed. However, I tried to use my wireless xbox 360 controller and wireless receiver but it seems the system does not recognize it. I also tried using the xbox one bluetooth controller, but the system did not detect the controller via bluetooth. I then tried to install the wiimote but the wiimote controller app crashes once it detects the wiimote. Their website says they do not support android 4.2 and above yet.
Has anyone been interested in gaming on their android head unit and if so, have you tried using a variety of controllers? What has worked, and what hasn't?
I'm not too sure about what my android system's name is...it came in a generic white box. But I've posted pictures of the unit and information if that helps.
Thanks,
Scott
Gen Game New S3 is android 4.0+ I got it with my vr headset and use it with my firestick mostly, but it is legit straight across xbox similar. I have not tested it on a head unit but it's shown to be versatile thus far. You may need to get a bluetooth usb dongle but I doubt it.
USB dongle. Didn't think if that. Great idea! Thanks!
did the usb dongle work? mine didnt.

have you seen this issue addressed in these forums? been searching for weeks. and yes, we have an android tesla style head unit. we could open new threads, but i feel for continuity purposes and to help out those searching some closure here is warranted.

Since you still haven't figured it out, here's some helpful advice - you have a better chance of getting a useful response if you learn how to post in the correct forum.

well aware of that, but see that was immensely more helpful than your other post. suggest having the mods then move this to the correct area; going back to my earlier post about continuity. people who google will be drawn here, and not necessarily to my new post so it would probably be more efficient to move than post.
edit: actually, i DID post in a similar thread in the head unit section. so theres actually two threads about this. but i still suggest moving this.
If after reading the forums as you said, you would have found that it is not possible due to the hacky BT on these copycat devices
Also, if you wanted the thread moved, report it. I have.
Thread moved.
Also note numerous posts on why other BT devices, do not work on these hacked Chinese head units.
not sure “it is not possible” is a fact; or more likely improbable. there is a youtube video of an nvidia controller working on bt. i wanted to see if an xbox one controller works which i already own, instead of buying another controller.
Is anyone else having the issue that their controller buttons are binded to head unit controls from factory? I'm trying to play emulated games and the buttons do things like close the app, open the radio app, dim screen, etc etc
Hello guys.
I have this model PF7146BS. I bought the car with it. My mirrorlink does not work so the xtrons's support sent me some update kit and now, the screen is very messy, almost to the point that it doesn't work.
I have a question regarding the custom roms. The hardware on this one is pretty good, but software wise is poor, interface as well.
Are there any that could work with mine? Any help will be extremely helpful.
My version : PF7146BS Xtrons
Can't post link due to the fact that I have no posts..

Many thanks,
