I sorted out the battery problem by uninstalling nova launcher. Don't know why that would affect it but after removing it I got around 6 hours continuous video playback on it. Well chuffed.
Has anyone tried the mini-hdmi on these? When I plug in the cable the tablet screen quickly fades to black and nothing is displayed on the monitor. Am I missing something. remarkably little online about this![]()
Tablet has to be on mains power for hdmi to function.
