Any instruction as to how to setup this firmware to the device?
how do you put it on the device?
Q7_Firmware_By_lewy20041.zip is malicious, and Chrome has blocked it. Any comments?
Is there going to be a kitkat version? We need bluetooth to work! And better performance.
This rom as the flickering issue. Notices right from first boot. Beware!
