GPD XP LineageOS Beta #3 (Fixes & UniDock upgrades)
DESCRIPTION

With the last update we hand-crafted a GPD XP compatible HDMI output dock!

With this update we once again improve the docking capabilities of the GPD XP by adding USB storage (USB stick, card-reader, hard drive, solid-state drive) and USB HID (mouse, keyboard, gamepad) passthrough support!

To make use of these new docking features, please ensure both your GPD XP and Raspberry Pi (4+ preferred) are running the latest builds of their respective Android / UniDock firmwares attached to this post!

Dock updates aside: the built-in fan will now turn off when the screen is turned off, and the navigation buttons (recent apps & back) can now be switched (because GPD decided to swap the button order mid-production for some reason).

How to install: Unpack the attached files using 7zip and follow the included instructions found inside README.txt.

For those needing the Google Play Store: The GPD XP is a read-only partition device, which means flashing Google Play app packages (via a recovery) isn't possible. Magisk is shipped out-of-box though, allowing the install of system-less Google Play packages like MagiskGapps. The included README.txt contains a section explaining how to.

For those needing root: Magisk is included out of box and only needs to be activated on first boot. A WiFi connection is required for the initial Magisk activation.

For those needing HDMI output: Please refer to the following tutorial to build yourself your very own UniDock, giving you access to HDMI output & USB device passthrough (mass storage / HID) support!

Changelog

  • Added support for UniDock USB mass storage passthrough (USB stick, card-reader, hard drive, solid-state drive)
  • Added support for UniDock USB HID passthrough (mouse, keyboard, gamepad)
  • The built-in fan now turns off when the screen does & resumes (if previously enabled) when the screen turns back on
  • The recents apps & back navigation buttons can now be swapped (Settings -> System -> Buttons -> Extras)

Fixable known issues

  • The built-in touchscreen mapper offsets are slightly shifted while in UniDock mode (this will be fixed in a future revision)
