Hi Folks, I'm an Android newbie here. I realize the answer may not be simple...but the question is. If I load Udoo Neo with the latest Android image provided by Udoo...will I immediately be able to use the Google Play Store? Or is it more complicated than that?
I suppose not, but to be sure we have to wait for the official release. See also this discussion about android on Udoo quad http://udoo.org/forum/index.php?threads/327/

I'm also wondering about this issue, I installed the app that received the alerts not support for the device
