Hello,


I have an Ematic tablet with a smashed digitizer and screen. I couldn't find any replacement parts for it online and it wasn't worth the effort. But it got me thinking .....

Is there like an Android casing/ enclosure that one can buy to build my own Android box? the tablet is still pretty functional and other than the screen/ digitiser it is still operational.

Has anyone ever built an Android case or is there some kind of android enclosure kit one can buy?

Honestly I had no idea...last time I checked instilling android on pi was just "demo mode". I'll look into this but I have this tablet here and it would be a shame to just throw it away....is there anyway to repurpose it to make some sort of android box or laptop?
 


Not with a broken screen. Does it have a HDMI output on it? Then hook it up to a TV or something.

No. Currently this is what I'm trying to do....Have to admit it would be a shame to waste these two tablets simply because.
