And frankly I do not think it makes sense, as the device seems underpowered.In other words, no. I don't think it's possible.

@lea21
RAM 512 MB
Storage 4 GBDefinetly does not worth the effort porting.
Device under 1.5GB ram is not a good idea.
4GB of storage would not be convinient to ensure space for apps and OS, not talking about user data. -
For the quick answers thank you very much, they are very helpful for me !!!
