About this device

Software and setup choices
- Installed OS: LineageOS Android for Nintendo Switch v1 [Tablet]. The operating system is prepared for the exact supported hardware target, replacing the manufacturer’s standard Android interface.
- Root choices: select No Root / Magisk. No Root is the standard choice; root is installed only when selected.
- Google apps: choose Keep de-Googled or Install Google apps. The matching package is installed before the first boot when selected; it is separate from your root choice.
Bootloader state
This configuration uses the device-specific modified boot environment. No Root describes Android app privileges; it does not restore the manufacturer’s original trusted boot chain. Follow only the exact hardware target’s installation and recovery guide.
Compatibility to check before ordering
- This LineageOS target does not support Android file encryption. It is unsuitable if encrypted local storage is a requirement.
- Manufacturer camera processing, eSIM, calling features, DRM playback and accessories can behave differently from stock firmware. Check any essential feature against the linked device guide; a hardware feature in the specification is not proof that the ROM implements it.
- Banking, payment, work-profile, streaming and game apps may reject a modified device or depend on Google services. Play Integrity, DRM quality and future app compatibility are not guaranteed by root, a custom ROM or a bootloader setting.
Updates and support
For routine updates, use the LineageOS Updater for the installed branch. For a major LineageOS/Android upgrade, follow the nx_tab upgrade guide, including its firmware and recovery requirements; this can differ from an ordinary OTA. Back up first and check root and Google-apps package compatibility before upgrading.
The official device record reviewed on 28 September 2026 lists LineageOS 22.2 for nx_tab. The build supplied must match the prepared unit and the configuration you order; confirm a required Android version before purchase.

Manufacturer manuals describe the original hardware and software. The software installed for your order is described in this listing. Custom software, rooting or jailbreaking can change security, app compatibility and update behaviour. Follow the instructions for the supplied build before updating or resetting it. Original manufacturer documentation alone does not establish conformity of a modified configuration.
