Warning WARNING: This device is not recommended for future use with postmarketOS due to its armhf architecture. Alpine Linux (the distribution that postmarketOS extends) pmaports#599 has been considering dropping it.
The processor of the device may support the armv7 architecture. If so, you can modify the device package and change the architecture accordingly.
This device is marked as not booting.

What works

  • Kernel compilation (2.6.32.61)

What does not work

  • Everything else

How to enter flash mode

  • While holding Volume down, press and hold Power for 5-10 seconds. There are no visual cues when fastboot loads.

Recovery mode

  • While holding Volume up, press and hold Power button until recovery options appear.

Installation

  • Install system partition to SD card pmbootstrap install --no-fde --sdcard=/dev/sd?
  • Boot kernel using pmbootstrap flasher boot

Issues

  • Current assumption is that CPU is not supported by armhf architecture, so it won't boot [1]
  • boot.img that can be booted using fastboot boot command is the one from stock device image. CyanogenMod boot.img fails to boot, but works when flashed to device.
