Kobo 7 Arc 7HD - Custom ROM?

mcphantom · 01-22-2015, 08:35 AM

Hello, I'm new with the Kobo 7 Arc 7HD.

Someone know if there is a custom rom for the Kobo 7 Arc 7HD?

If not, is there any chance to get the factory rom to try to create a custom rom using certain mandatory parts of the original.

Thanks in advance.

PeterT it appears to me that the link you gave me point to a kernel source code? Am I right?

I'm not such an advanced developer. jeje

Correct. The issue is that as far as I know there has been little if any hacking done to the Kobo android devices.

Yeah, I saw that I've been looking for any custom ROM for Arc 7HD with no luck. The only thing is how to root. What I have in mind is to try to follow a guide on XDA on how to port a room.

Thanks PeterT!!!
