I have tried selling it but people only want the display and will pay only the fraction of the price.

I have also wanted to donate it to people in need but I think a smart phone would serve a better purpose.



Yeah, I’ve used it as that for now but the display strains my eyes. Is there any app/feature which could help with contrast and readability?


How do you recommend I debloat the tablet without bricking it?


The screen resolution (1280 x 800) is kinda bad, and it’s also an IPS display.


Interesting use. Unfortunately I haven’t found any usage like that. Maybe a home automation system and an Arduino interface?


I checked the XDA forum a bit, I found this but I’m not sure on how to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and flash the ROM?

I had once bricked this tablet while playing around with rooting it and I had to take it to a repair shop. So I’d appreciate if there were working unbrick instructions and also working instructions on how to install TWRP.

What kind of servers could I run on this spec?


What to do with an old tablet?
I've got an old Lenovo Tab3 850M table, running Android 6.0.1 It's pretty vanilla and I haven't installed any custom ROMs or rooted the device. The battery is in pretty good condition and the table can idle for around a week I think. It has an 8 inch IPS display, Quad-Core 1.0GHz ARM Cortex-A53 CPU, ARM Mali-T720 MP2, 500 MHz, 4-Cores GPU, 2GB of RAM, and 16GB internal storage. The cameras are pretty terrible (even for 2016 standards), and the battery is 4300mAh. What useful things can I do with it?
