More details to this section are coming soon.

Installation

Even though there is a custom recovery for this device (safestrap), it won't be able to flash custom kernels since the bootloader is locked. This means that pmOS can't be installed this way.

Serial Debugging

More details to this section are coming soon.

Known Issues

Bootloader is locked down.

To Do List

Doing
