Consider this as a beta testing ROM. As far as I understand it, it is currently not recommended to upgrade on the Nitropad X230 and similar HW due to lack of support for the underlying software like Heads. Do I get it right? Could you point me to where I can find more about the topic where I can learn how to reflash the ROM on my Nitropad X230 properly, and check if the status changed?
