Good news also they are for MK908

[lewy20041]

I downloaded Mk908 and MK918 SDK.
Nice they shared it.
Something to look into in New Year

Maybe that is a good start to a pure AOSP kitkat build on rk3188

[openbeta]

This means T-R42 / K-R42 gonna have kitkat soon ?

FINALLY - full ROM source. Not just the kernel.

I'm downloading the kernel for A9 now, if anyone gets the system sources down can you re-host? I only get ~50 kbits/s from Chinese hosters.

Aha! Someone has already re-hosted a couple:

kernel_mk908_20131230.tar.gz

rk3188_4.4.2_without_kernel_20131230.tar.gz

[d33]

Full kernel sources are included in all, just the makefiles are different and perhaps a few tweaks (I haven't looked exhaustively).

Important thing is that the AP6210 module (fw_RK901.bin) is selected in rk_wifi_config.c by a define in the autoconfig.h which sets the path to the wifi module firmware at boot. Should be dead simple to build with AP6630 selected (fw_RK903_ag.bin) instead for the T428 (and equivalents)

Actually, as a cheat you may be able to just flash the MK908 KK firmware and then:

1. make /system writable
2. navigate to /system/etc/firmware
3. rename "fw_RK901.bin" to "fw_rk901.old"
4. rename "fw_rk903_ag.bin" to "fw_RK901.bin"
5. rename "nvram_AP6210.txt" to "nvram_AP6210.old"
6. rename "nvram_AP6330.txt" to "nvram_AP6210.txt"
7. reboot.

Yeah that should run fine on minix X7 (except for a few things), but the real interesting thing with this sdk is that we can start working on a pure aosp build :P

I don't really know why you would want KitKat on it.XBMC is broke with KitKat, there's no decent version for it yet.

Netflix in HD, because it's not all about XBMC.

The other item is the speed. I have CM 11 on my phone and it is much quicker.
