Hi Mick, thanks a lot for linking this informations for me :)
My Lollipop device is a pure tablet. I choose intentionally a no-gsm/no-phone device...of smartphones I only like the smart part. And yesterday evening I put Linux on it...currently only as chroot environment (since nobody has currently made public a custom rom/kernel) so the android kernel is still running, but ... one step is done. I am eager to see the first custom ROMs for my device (Asus MeMO Pad 7 ME176CX) and a cwm/twpr for it made by the guys at clockworkmod.com/Team Win...can't wait... really :) Until then I have to be careful with modding, since there is no simple way of replay a nandroid backup. Have a nice weekend!
