Hello,
Welcome to my post and overview of the recent release of Jellybean ANDROID on my systems.
I hope this is not gonna be too long. Please bear in mind that it worked for me but it might not work for you!
This is still in the testing stagesd as I understand it and not all devices/systems are supported.
With this in mind and outta the way, I would like to take the opportunity to report my experience and testing
with this inprogress project iso release.
Evaluation of the so called android for pc/s/laptops/netbooks/other ANDROID Jellybean 4.2.2 test iso
on my Two systems w/ specs are at the end of this quick? Overview...
PROs;;; The Good
1-] Both systems boots and installs without hiccup
From usb flash drive using unetbootin for the iso to usb
2-] Ethernet & Wifi works flawlessly
Wifi on the Pc didn't work becouse of an issue
Unable to use Alfa USB adapter AWUS036NHA
for wifi on the Pc as it doesnt get detected by the android
3-] Works smoothly and without much fuss!
Internet, chat, FLASH, APPS, video, music,
All that good stuff BUT is still not fully functional
as an android; Please READ the COns for explenation
CONs;; The Bad
1-] As of this release, FLash was lost out-of-box and so
to get that working you need to install the following;
FLASH apk file from the web
P.S Flash apk is NOT available on google play anymore!
You will not get the latest Flash version. but it will work
Why?! Adobe dropped support for Mobile flash since jellybean's arrival !!
But you can still install the latest flash apk that is on the webs
here;;
2-] My main dissapointment was to find out that 3D [opengl?] on this is not working....
Sorry folks, no 3d gaming!! Awww..... WHAT!?!
Yeah.. Sadly for me, I purchased some 3d games from amazon's apks and cant play em
BUMMER ! ! ! IT was Ice breaker for me :///
3-] Apps are hit & miss so far
I did find some that didnt work and should?
Well, enough of ranting and lets get down to the applause!
Overall, it was an Awesome experience to get to test this even though it's still far from
fully usable in my eyes.
The anti 3D support was a major killer for me
Few aps dont work and wifi does sometime still get deadspots [looses connection]
but that might be my old laptop's build-in wifi going bad soon?
Let me say,
THANKS to all the Devs on here and the progress they have made since the earlier versions
that eighter didnt work or had problems with wifi+ethernet and crashing issues
I had only one crash in this release after a day and half usage.
Again, THANK YOU!!
All the best,
~CJ
