Thrift store finds continue! This time I got an Android TV device. This one can run an older version of LineageOS. Interestingly, this device has an x86 cpu!

1. Device Info

Spec Value
SoC Intel Atom Z3560
RAM 1GB
CPU Quad-core Intel Atom 1.8GHz
eMMC 8GB

More information can be found here.

2. Build Instructions

I was able to get things building by using a combination of the official build instructions and some help from irc.

There is a tool here that allows one to create a manifest for proprietary devices.

For Lineage 17.1 the result is:

lineage/scripts/add-repo/add-repo.py add-project \
    --name TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_asus \
    --path vendor/asus \
    --remote github \
    --file .repo/local_manifests/muppets.xml

rm -rf vendor/asus

repo sync vendor/asus

3. Installation Instructions

Installation instructions can be found here here.
