Re: Emteria Web Portal Pages Freeze
Hi @Receptor333
You were right, there was an issue with a freezing dashboard. Thanks for pointing that out.
We just pushed a fix, which should come live any minute.
Re: Raspberry Pi 3 Support
@dhruvt basically, yes. The hardware is too weak to get a newer Android running with an acceptable performance, and Android 7 is actively developed anymore. We are only doing updates for customers on demand. For new projects you should go with a RPi4 or RPi5.
Re: How to unbind or remove a device?
Closing this thread as moving these devices is completed.

external boot requires resolving
Hello, Yes, booting from external devices has been raised in 2018, is there any timescale for when this will be possible?, you have a very good operating system, currently being let down by hardware, apparently Android was never designed to run from SD cards, as a consequence is slower and more glitchy than it needs to be, simply put, the situation is unacceptable, Apparently Raspbian works faultlessly from USB.

Re: MDM - how to allow an app to access USB devices
@aroeira It's possible to a certain degree, if the vendor and product ID are known, and you can be sure that they don't change. We have a sample app for that, but you will still have to manually allow it for the first time: https://github.com/emteria/samples_apps_UsbPermissions
In a custom image the USB permission dialog could be disabled completely for a more robust solution
Re: Automatic OS Updates Not Working on EmteriaOS 15.4.0 (Raspberry Pi 5)
It is also not working on my side. The Raspi is red in emteria account, but staged „seen 1 minute ago“. There are so many essential bugs in Emteria. I’m thinking about switching to another distribution.
Re: Emteria OS on Commercial Tablets
@aroeira if you are only interested in our MDM, it can be installed on other Android builds: https://emteria.com/kb/device-enrollment-using-qr-code
Bluetooth Audio with RPi4
Hello,
I would like to know if it is possible to output audio through bluetooth with a Raspberry Pi 4 and Emteria OS v14.9.0.
Thanks in advance,
Nicolas
Re: Installation process for Elo I-Series 2.0 is unclear
I also am installing on the same tablet model and while I was able to get it installed it looks like there are some drivers missing. Specifically the pronto_wlan driver which controls networking for the tablet. Can't even activate the service unfortunately due to this oversight.
Here's the output of a ELO native OS

I attempted to load the driver myself but not only is the driver missing but the public key is missing from the kernel so it won't load the driver.
I found the source online https://github.com/emteria/kernel_elo_eloi2/tree/v3.18.31-n
But I'm not quite confident enough to recompile the kernel and turn off code signing. Maybe someone else would want to take a stab at it or the developer can add the driver since the device is listed as supported?
