NEW - Lollipop - wasser firmware 3.0.6 for Minix Neo X7

[Phycopat]

I installed 1.0.2 a day ago and there seems to be something wrong with audio sync, quick test with MX player+DTS pass-thru I had no issues but with Youtube, Netflix and Viaplay apps the audio seems to be out of sync (using HDMI, haven't tried other options).

I think the sync problem is libmedia.so ... try changing your sound output to defult, (dont remember name, but the first in list) then my audio in netflix is ok again.

But i still have "slow frames" in netflix and viaplay apps :/ - maybe something with streaming ?

Does 1.0.3 include the dts dolby passthrough?
Also if i have 1.0.2 installed is there an easy way to upgrade without wiping? like from the sdcard as i would upgrade the OEM?

Thanks

1. it doesn' support passthrough,

2. yes, it's possible to update to 1.0.3 per CWM.

which firmware version have you used? the "slow frames" in netflix and viaplay apps shouldn't happen in 1.0.x firmware.

Sorry Wasser to post off topic but with one of the best Roms I've tried for my X7, just wondering if we can expect anything for the X8 from you, I realise it's a different chip from a different vendor and might take a few learning curves

X8 is also on my todo list . But please don't expect it will happen soon.

Same here with lip sync. iview ABC app has problem . I found that jelly bean and xbmc 13 had same problem.

I changed my mute button on a2 to be the letter A. Very handy for xbmc. Also have 2.5sec + as default

it can be fixed in xbmc.

it can be fixed in xbmc.

Would that fix other apps that don't use xbmc? We have abc iview in Australia, it it also has delay. On jb was fine

can you tell how you managed to set a delay of 2,5 sec as default oO ?
would be very thankful about that

Thanks arhim; I did confirm that the sdcard was mounted in Recovery; in fact Recovery Backup accessed the sdcard to create the backup directory (I checked later on ES Explorer) but it was unable to write the backup file. The sdcard is R/W enabled and has enough space for the backup. I used the same recovery rom and the same sdcard in Android 4.2 installations and the Backup function was ok, so I assumed some sort of incompatibility with wasser's 4.4.

Solved this issue by flashing the recovery found on this page:
http://crewrktablets.arctablet.com/ look for "CWM recovery KK gen2 loader"

I did find about this rom in:

many thanks to Crew RKTablets and ArcTablet admin.

Just changed the libmedia.so to the hacked one but still no DTS passthru with wasser xmbc, AC3 works fine in passthru on hdmi ...

Hi, using XBMC 13.1 (I used wasser's xbmc and his libmedia.so), to play a video containing a DTS stream, it appears that the input rear channels are incorrectly mapped to the output front channels and the input front and center channels are ignored, thus small levels of sound are output to the speakers since the rear channels are usually weak (and sometimes with no sound at all). This issue does not happen for DD/AAC streams.

Hope this helps.
Cheers

Thank for all and congratulations for work!

I installed v1.0.2 today as instructed and I discovered that the ROM is plagued by flickering, where the QSv2 JB V4.2.2 which I used until a few hours ago is exempt.
It's not often, but still annoying.
I discovered I was not alone, but I have not found solutions. Hardware that works Wasser is the same as QSv2.
Something can be done?

could you please make short video from this issue and give me the download url so that i can see this issue?

thanks

Hi...
For to annoying flickering I took the video...

I noted the following:
- on this occasion the ROM it worked much better, with fewer flash. In other situations it is unwatchable ..
- To Home and XBMC are very frequent: the flashes that take the whole screen
- Using ES File Explorer, flickering is limited to thin white lines only in the left side of the program
- - Using the Terminal in full screen, the flichering is limited to ONLY in the upper bar (Windows 1). Everything else of the screen - the most part - is not affected by flickering

-----------

- I should add that I installed a few applications, and especially that I never used.

- I make testing Antutu: during the tests the flashes were almost absent. Curiously, opening the options Antutu on the left, just like ES File Explorer, the white stripes were displayed numerous and dense, ONLY in the menu settings.

- with bluetooth wi-fi and ethernet disconnected (I have Ethernet always disconnected) in 5 minutes I had 14 flashes and a bit of white lines

- With XBMC open - on standby (no video playback) - for 5 minutes, the flashes were 15, with completely random sequences, maybe two/three in a row and none for two minutes. But the white stripes were always present.
after 5 min. with bluetooth, ethernet and wireless switched off, XBMC started in stand-by mode (with flickering !)
- my dmesg.txt after 5 min. with Bluetotth, ethernet and wireless switched off, XBMC started in stand-by mode (with flickering !)

Please note: now I'm testing the QSv3.1: it has the same problem!

As I described above is a contribution. It is not a solicitation to the solution of the problem.

Thanks

EDIT
I have not used OC kernels ...

Wow, this looks not good I never had such probem. I tried to turn off 'autohide system bar', but still no flashes or lines.

Are there any other users that have these problems?

Well just so ya know, yesterday ES Fiile Explorer was updated (V3.1.5.1) has problems. Seems to force close a lot on some of my devices, so you might want to eliminate testing/using it for the time being.

Hi Wasser,

When will 1.0.3 be released.

Thanks!
