ART is now the default runtime with Android 5.0+, and I believe there are no options available to switch it back to dalvik.

TB-8304F1 Tab 8 - Stuck on Android 7.0
Hi, apologies if this isn't the correct way to do this.
I too have a Lenovo Tab E8 which I just purchased and found I cannot upgrade it beyond 7.0
Details are:
Model : TB-8304F
Kernel: 3.18.35
Build: TB-8304F_S000030_190227_ROW
Does anyone know if there is a way to update this to a later version of Android. I have never rooted any of my android devices so this will be new to me.
Thanks, Shane
No, there are no available roms for this device so operating system cannot be updated beyond 7.
The only thing possible is to temporarily root (which resets after each reboot) and install some apps with root access. SetCpu did not work for me to increase speed

Here is a guide to root the Lenovo Tab 8
(GUIDE) Lenovo Tab 8 (Lenovo TB-8304F1) Root Guide
I found a way to root this tablet booted root. However it will tell you it has a red state when you turn it on and stall your boot by 5 sec. NOTE: If you would like to obtain your own boot image from your tablet to feel safer Follow this Post...

Would that be like following the guide on how to install it on the Lenovo essential 7 tablet? I'm keen on getting a custom recovery installed
has anyone had luck unlocking the E8 as the website won't allow me to enter the serial number

Help with small predicament please *reward*

Hello all,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 T- 597V (verizon oem locked) and I need to install an app on it, DJI FLY for my drone.
- Now the app will not install. I tried to install the apk file directly from the tablet, I tried to install it via adb with no luck.
- The tablet it OEM locked, so I can not root it.. I updated it to android 10 from 9 hoping it would let me install it.. nope,
- The DJI Fly App requires 64 bit, the tablet is 64 bit, however I am not sure if the android v10 thats on there is 64 bit
I've been searching for days.. my tech savviness gets crappier the older I get, I really suck at the internet now LOL
The reason I want to use this tablet specifically for this is because it's the perfect size, and brightness which is very hard to find. I have a couple of other tablets and phones that I use for my drones, but this would literally be perfect. The next solution is just to buy another tablet, but for the price range nothing compares to this, and I feel like a hoarder and will get yelled at by my SO for having so much crap.
If anyone can find me a solution, scouts honor I will pp/venmo you $50 same day, no matter how big or small the advice is.
- is there anyway to force install this app?
- is there anyway to root this locked device or a workaround to install another OS?
- Anything I can do at all besides buying another tablet which is my last resport?

It's definitely for the advanced user and the chances of something going wrong is high, but it specifically lists the SM-T597.
Before attempting the above, you should try to ask someone who has been through the process to run device check to see if the OS is 32 or 64 bit in that thread.

Thank you for the response!! The links are all dead I was going to try that but I just cant figure it out. And also there is no OEM unlock option he states on the V version

The XDA forum links might be dead due to the migration on Dec 1, 2020 from the old platform to Xenforo. People were warned about it, but not everyone saw the notice I guess. I didn't check the other links though.
Sometimes the OEM unlock option is just people cut&paste instructions. Some tablets have it and some don't. I don't know about yours specifically as I don't have it.

If the app requires 64-bit, and the OEM does not allow you to install a 64-bit version of android, you are SOL.

You have to change the region in settings or by doing factory reset, on the setup select your region
Unfortunately no.

Figured out how to unlock Hisense bootloaders, but not much else. Still need to figure out a way to extract firmware packages. (Android TV)

Thanks in advance.
