Product: hp elite x3

My Elite x3 will become a paper weight by end of 2019 cos of MSFT abandoning the support for W10 mobile. However, the hardware seems still compatible with Android 7 or 8. Anyone here have tried converting their x3 from w10m to android os?  Apprecaite your reply. Thanks.

You might take a look at the article at the link in the line below this one.  The same method used for the Lumia phone may work with the Elite x3.

I have looking for a while how to port android to HP Elite X3, at the end seems that I need to make it alone as HP don't want to make anything. There is OXI Phone which can work with HP Lapdock too. It will be excellent to port that mechanism to HP Elite X3

A good phone is just thrown, now we will think whether to buy anything produced by your company? Could parting with the phone theme to spend more solidly, would release the Android firmware, and so signed their own impotence.

I'm very sad about this situation, today whatsapp has stopped working, we (Elite X3 users) are so limited and frustrated to deal with a not supported operative system... not so much apps, SO doesn't working properly,  I'm so frustrated.

Quite right, they are just scammers, done and forgotten. And we fell for the experience of working with printers. After that, I will not buy HP equipment anymore.
