I have a question

I am looking for a cheap Android Pad like this one but with 3g and at a cheaper price and that has active ROM support. Is there such thing yet? I hope I posted in the appropriate thread I couldn't really see any that related to this subject.

Probably the general q+a section
But about the tablet how much are you willing to spend?

I would like to spend in the neighborhood of $150.00 us for an Android Pad similar to the one in the link.

Avoid that at all costs.
Do not buy a tablet that lacks official Google support. No market/play store, no maps, YouTube, Google talk, gmail or any other Google app. It will not have most of the apps you will want available, and on these devices root is often very difficult to obtain, making getting a functional market/play store onto it will be incredibly time consuming.
Due to their shortfalls, these tablets almost never have an active dev community.
There are 4 exceptions to this: the kindle fire, and the nook color/tablet/touch.

Thank You for your response, I believe you to be right I guess I will have to wait till I can save more money. What would be you and Scoffy"s recommendations ?

well you stated in your first post that you wanted 3g in it. the cheapest "real" tablet with 3g i know of are the Archos G9 series. I don't know your location, but from what I've heard they don/t work with US SIMs, you'll have to look into that if you're in the US.

Mozilla Boot to Gecko Project.

Mozilla is releasing an operating system for mobile devices. The name of it is Boot to Gecko Project. I wonder what will happen to google now. I just read about it on mozilla's website.

This doesn't really belong here.
And, nothing (for a long while). Android has so much momentum it's not even threatened by the likes of iOS.
That said, Firefox OS would hopefully become the "third platform" by virtue of targeting low-cost handsets. Eventually, and especially if the patent lawsuits keep tuning up, I can see android being replaced by a family of standards-based OS' with FOS as a prototype. On the other hand, FOS is itself vulnerable to patent bull****, even if, and perhaps especially if, Android and Apple make patent peace with each other.

An Introduction, I guess

I'm crispycat. I've been interested in computers since I got a refurbished Acer laptop running Windows XP at the age of 4. At around 10 I had the desire to start developing software. I created my first website and started making some pretty useless apps in Visual Basic (yikes). Eventually I learned C# and more recently Java. As someone who is very passionate about digital privacy and cybersecurity, having full control over my phone is very important to me, and this forum has been very helpful.

Glad to see you here crispycat! Your background and contributions are appreciated!
Cheers

Stumbled upon the site when looking to take my old kindle fire table out of the amazon jungle and just make it an Android tablet . Work in progress. I have always loved tinkering with things have sent several working items to the scrap heap due to me taking them apart and not figuring out how to get them back together, but somewhere a long the line I learned what to do . Have a mind that thinks way outside the box. Hope to continue my learning and maybe even teach a few on what not to do while here . A curious mind will always seek the answers in the unknown. As always stay curious.

Welcome to the XDA forums!
Maybe some information in the Kindle fire forums:
Amazon Kindle Fire
The Amazon Kindle Fire is a tablet version of Amazon's e-book reader known simply as the Kindle. The Kindle Fire has a heavily modified user interface that doesn't appear to be running an Android OS in many ways. Users have access to an Amazon App store, which includes many apps from the Google...

Hello. New to the forum.

Hello,
I am new to the forum.
I (not so recently) purchased a ProX-1 phone with Lineage OS on the Indiegogo crowdfunding platform and look forward to (finally) receiving it. (Crowdfunding is not for the faint of heart). I've never used Lineage OS before and I'm really not that technically savvy. Savvy?

Anyway, I saw that FIDO standard passwordless sign-in was coming from Apple, Microsoft and Google later this year.

And I posted a thread in the General forum asking a few questions related to passwordless sign-in and Lineage OS. Hopefully, I put that thread in the right place and did not duplicate an existing thread. Moderators will fix it, I assume, if I did.
I've never been much of a forum person, but that could change since soon (I hope!) I will receive a phone with Lineage OS and I know nothing about Lineage OS.
