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!
Best regards,
Meino
