Tablet OS's? - Ecks - 09-05-2017

So I just got a Condroid 7" tablet for free, but the damn thing only has 689MB Internal, so I have been looking for any sort of lite OS that I can test out on the damn thing. So please post your ideas with links if possible here, it is currently running the companies version of Jelly Bean (Condroid_X7.ver2.0), but it can't even handle updating.

I will be using this for testing purposes and if possible posting reviews on anything I test on it.

What processor?
If it's a MediaTek processor, there's a few (not great) ROMs that should be really easy to port.
Otherwise, it's not as easy to port, but you can do it if you try.

You won't get anything except for Android running on it, and your best bet might be to root it and delete all the useless shit including Google PLay and Google Services.

AllWinner DualCore-A23 processor, it is just a cheap Chinese tablet so even if I can't do anything fun with it, I can still rip it apart and use it's parts of something else.

Been looking into the spec sheet for this tablet, it is supposed to have 8gb of nand flash, so I am going to open it up and make sure everything is still on the board if it's still one piece I found a tutorial on recovering flash memory sectors and will try that. I am still open to ROM and OS suggestions though after all it was free so I can tinker with it to my hearts content.
