Please report any problem with this firmware, I can't verify this custom firmware works as I don't have a PIPO M8 PRO tablet to test the custom firmware. Â

I have used this release for the last 2 weeks.
I cannot test the G3 functions as I don't have a working SIM at this stage, but for all the rest this ROM works very nicely. The only issue I have (lowest illumination too bright) was already on the stock ROM.
Thanks for this excellent custom ROM, one of the rare ones for the 3G version.
BTW: Who is Kasty?
