FINstar talk about pre-root, but i don't understand about this... See quote below.

Yes, I have installed BusyBox and works. ...
I have pre-root the firmware before flashing with some small tool from the xda-dev forum..here is the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2489040

I waiting reply do FINstar:

Please. FINstar.
cfwtool.exe and cfwtool.bat run now.
What is the sequence of steps that I use in "rockchip cfw tool"?
What the final image name?
...tks...

Note: Option 1: unpack - Option 3 - RK3188 - just only? Generate: miskercfw.img. I have not used option 2.pack everything and 3.pre-root.

Open system folder to edit your rom (what could i edit)

Repack update.img (rebuild ?)

Thanks
Yeah download your original firmware, rename it update.img and put it in the same directory as this app. It will extract the update and system.img inside of it. Then you can delete all the packages and stuff you don't need. It can also root the firmware for you so when you flash it you don't have to root your device again. And lastly it will repack it so you can flash it to your device.

Tks, TVDroid. Please.
What differences do you observed between original firmware and htc_t018_pubilic_ap6210_20131122 firmware?

Curiosity:
How did you do the pre-root htc_t018_pubilic_ap6210_20131122 firmware?

I returned the previous firmware, but before I had to put the firmware CS968-Geass-V1, because I don't could run BusyBox.

Hi,
the rom by GAESS is rooted from start, but the ones from Geekbuying are not, so it is normal that it won't work. You have to root it either before or after installation...
I will update the start of the thread to include the new information.

For this Problem try 4x Erase NAND with "ROM_Flash_Tool_137" and than flash again this ROM.
Me helps this perfect.

Is this rom 1080p or 720p?

[webipsum]

Is this rom 1080p or 720p?

convict.
For me, screen flicker a lot.
I can't setup for 1920x1080 (1080p).
Only 1280x720 (720p) and screen flicker a lot.
The same happens with the firmware not pre-routed.

Hi I tried it yesterday, worked like a charm (It is within a pack of tools for a tronsmart, just ignore the rest). I installed that new firmware and pre-rooted it before, I can only say that it is smooth like butter under the Greek sun ;-)...

__________________________________________________ _____________________

A little tip on the edge, when you dont like the R-Box Bootanimation, try these App.





All searching for a bootanimation.zip was without luck on my Device but with this App, i can change it.

More Bootanimations you can be found here.

Have Fun !

Hi TVDroid,

Cheers!
