My Homemade Android 7.1 Tablet

In this video, I will give an overview of my DIY raspberry pi 3 7" touchscreen tablet. This tablet can run Android 7.1, Raspbian, Retropie, and more. Sadly, right now no one has made android Oreo 8.1 for the raspberry pi 3. I also 3D printed the housing for this portable raspberry pi 3 using my TronXY 3D printer.

[@marcolozano9321]

i am impressed that you could make a tablet that has more ports then a mac

[@Simplystimulating]

Sam G rude

[@wclifton968gameplaystutorials]

you mean macbook. the iMac and iMac Pro has more ports than this (unless your including the GPIO Pins which don't really count.)

Hey EG! I'm doing a similar project over on my channel, but im running Windows 10. The design for your case is one point man! I would love to see a video where you make a Windows 10 tablet, that is, if I don't do it first >:D

[@smithkids3427]

this dudes going places

[@momentsmeanmore]

Wow I'm impressed!!! Sucks those guys are charging but for all the hard work I'm sure they put into getting a fully compatible version of Android I could see why. I hope you get the chance to get the full version when it comes out!

[@gregauletta5694]

there is no fully compatible android for rpi and likely never wil be. even if it got official android support it would still not be worth using since there are many cheaper maker boards out there like the orange pi's and odroids that run android very well both tablet and tv varients. it makes no sense to develop android for rpi when the boards specs are not up to par and cheaper better alternitives are widely available

[@ElectronicConsumer]

EXCELLENT VIDEO MAN EXCELLENT

[@HiyoriGirlYT]

Electo is so smart
Keep it up

[@ronnyfc24]

Bruh everyone gangsta till this man makes an entire video game console

[@trenten5392]

Making a tiny video game console with a Raspberry pi could actually be super cheap and easy but it would only be able to run lower end games

[@justinjohnson7099]

You can use a tilt sensor, vibration sensor, and a sound sensor.

[@autobotoctolingthomasho3362]

But how?

[@lucassantos244]

o homem é um gênio! parabéns!!!

[@Nokia-jd7rp]

OMG GENIUS

[@acorlan145]

To help with tilting for now make a small container with a ball and depending where the ball is that makes your tilt

[@stiffybeanie4148]

wow this is even more usable than a real tablet!

[@DMack6464]

I prefer what to give away to me
so I can give a look to my friends

[@TamiroRabbit]

Hey! I remember watching this video in 2019 when I was a kid. I became so obsessed with this Raspberry Pi, Windows 10 and even making my own laptop and tablet at home in late 2019 but I gave up on the thought. A lot has changed today 2024. I'm a CZcamsr now

[@kholgenbilguun959]

WOOW HOW DO YOU MADE THAT OMG

[@robloxgameplayfr3841]

Hi dude nice really nice vid i really like it do more raspberry pi vid and entira

[@Minecraftminer3000]

Paying for a free operating system is a stupid idea. I do realize that the developers need to get paid somehow, but having to pay €69 straight up is a little steep. I'm sure they could collect money through optional donations or a pay-what-you-want system.

[@JamesR624]

I actually kinda hope they get in trouble for this shit. It's one thing for Samsung to sell you a Galaxy and it has android on it. It's QUITE another to sell Google's open source software outright. Pretty sure that's against the GNU GPL.

[@IcyEyeG]

They won't get in trouble if they release the kernel sources on the website like any other vendor does. That's the only thing they need to do. The Android OS is mostly Apache licensed (which doesn't require source releases), only the kernel and other bits are GPL.

[@hidde1626]

Or for just 5€ or something

[@grill6411]

No one pays anything for pay what you want, ask the Elementary OS devs.

[@HydroScuffed]

Sir, Microsoft Would like a word!

yess!!! buy it!!

hello my friend, say please, this RPi can run with any touchscreen or I must have specific model to connect? (sorry about my English)

I might make this but as a handheld gaming console and maybe add a 12000mah battery

You should sell this when the new pay software android comes out

[@cryan584]

£80 for a free os thats bull id just try and remove the timer on the free version lol

[@cryan584]

only you would know of you did that so evan if you do no one can prove that you have unless they look at the sd card

[@glitchy_weasel]

Android is based on Linux, which is an Open Source project, under the GPL license. The purpose of this kind of projects is to form developers communities around them by distributing the software by absoluty no price. So you can modify any of this software (including removing the timer in emteria OS) to your liking. I also think that the way that emteria incorporated a timer that blocks the software for users that don't way to pay money for an Android OS should not be allowed.

[@tdragon87]

He. A question. How do you turn off the screen? Or a better one... how do you turn the screen on when it goes to sleep?

Hey Electronic Grenade , can you run a Benchmark on Geekbench 4 and Antutu ? :D

[@nvstudios7542]

hi Electronic grenade is a 32 or 64 bit version? good video; I wait your answer.

[@r7obot]

I installed the same os to Raspberry Pi 3b+, but why it is so slow and can't open any app correctly ?

[@dominic9135]

So I saw that it has no motion sensor. How could we make one that actually works for it. Like in temple run, you couldn’t go to the sides without swiping

[@sbpv-tv]

Where can I download the STL file of the cover? Thanks

[@thehorrorartist9317]

Samsung hire this man RIGHT NOW!

[@toddlermindcrafts]

Ohhh cool no home button wow so intesting can you make an iPad 10.6

[@user-kp4ii5eu2w]

I doubt he could make an ipad, cause ios isn’t very easy to recreate

[@nighthawk45750]

The flashing thunderbolt on the screen tells me the powerboost 1000 doesn't pump out enough juice for the Pi to run properly.

[@WilddogOo]

1:40 i dont think u can use that fuction without a gyroscope dude :P

[@vlusky_husky]

Quick (maybe stupid) question. Can it be used as a graphics tablet?

[@ErCapoAlex]

😍😍😍

[@prashantsingh2263]

Hey, why you tube does not include this tablet ?

[@KibSquib48]

bump.
you should try installing Chrome OS on it, its pretty good for tablets and has android app support right out of the box! and on top of that, Linux support is in beta

[@zakathzakath6184]

Build next Aros os amiga from old computer parts or laptop.

[@debojitacharjee]

is it possible to build a linux tablet that is one application oriented. Just like Amazon kindle, after booting it will able to run only one application like Video player or Online radio!

[@Zoule]

Why does he think I need a military grade tablet stand? Does he think I'ma be punching the tablet or something lol

[@smugcat2521]

It's a joke

Have you been able to play Netflix/Hulu/Amazon video on it?

Where do i buy this asking for a friend :)

[@TheRealAlpha2]

I'm kinda surprised there haven't been more "Pi tablet" kits out there. it seems like a no brainer. Also 80 bucks for an android OS, eew.

[@svorkoetter]

Not quite a no brainer. The video neglected to mention that the Pi3 board had to be modified quite a bit to make it fit, much like it was in my similar tablet: www.stefanv.com/electronics/a-compact-home-made-raspberry-pi-tablet.html

[@TheRealAlpha2]

That;s not to say that's it's an easy process but I mean the fact that there aren't more DIY kits that are designed to facilitate the conversion of a Pi or similar SBC into a laptop or tablet form factor without so much modification. Maybe that's what Maker communities thrive on, but it also seems like a perfect opportunity for someone to fill the niche for people that aren't as handy.

[@thecoltster1]

The Raspberry PI 3 draws 2.5 amps. The powerboost you're using is only rated up to one amp. Around the 3 minute mark you were playing Mario Kart with a little lightning bolt indicator on the right of the screen indicating your CPU is being governed and is under-voltage. You should've used a different powerboost that allows for at LEAST 2.5amp draw. Under-voltage will reduce the lifespan of the PI.

[@nokrimchimarak1246]

if it can surf web why it doesn't support video playback 😅

[@merpysoup6505]

why the heck does ANDROID not come with touchscreen and video support?
