  • Does FDE work ?
  • It’s possible to set SELinux to enforced ?

Working features :

  • Wifi
  • GPS (GPS, SBAS, GLONASS, Beidou) and maybe sometime inacurrate but further test needed…
  • Microphone (seems bad quality)
  • Accelerometer

Not working :

  • Camera (and flashlight)
  • Bluetooth
  • App Lounge
  • Sound control

Bug :

  • “There is an internal problem in your device” at reboot
  • e/os recovery gives lots of error (can’t mount partitions…) when using it but seems to work in the end.
  • Lag when navigating in the top menu
  • Sound control (can’t mute or decrease/increase device volume, for the device the speakers are already mute)
  • Camera is used
