Blacklist of locked Down Version´s of RK3188 CPU

[Magnus33]

Update: I don't believe the resolution is 1080P with Kernel 3 because when I take a screenshot only a 720P image is created and not the full screen is captured:

Could be just a bug in the screen capture.

Test if you have in the build.prop overlay enable.

i want to make this clearly, when i saw this news, i am immediatley contacting with rockchip contact, and they have confirmed, the rk3188-t .

but rk3188-t is not crap cpu. rk3188-t won't support retina screen, so on tablet, we should advoid the rk3188-t cpu. but on tv sticks, there is no such problems.

rockchip has release patches to make the firmware Compatibility for rk3188 and rk3188-t. the price difference for those two chip is about 1.5-2 usd.

as far as i know, most of the android tv stickes in market has been used the rk3188-t. rockchip want to make a different, in tablet, use rk3188, in tv boxes, use the rk3188-t.

that's the information i get. will share with you guys more when i get more.

Its great to see you reacked to this but hopefully geekbuying makes resellers advertise 3188T max CPU 1.4 otherwise its false advertising plain and simple.

At this time all dongle was sold as 1.8GHz CPU performance so its false advertising plain and simple. This have name = FRAUD

Its getting suppliers to verify thats impossible to do as they all care about money not care what they falsely advertised!!

You got a RK3188T CPU

[robert266]

You got a RK3188T CPU

oh very bad news ... but ii see now all geekbuying mk908II models are wih T cpu..
overall its working great he unit .. some minor bugs but its stable and cold ...

Can it updated to finless kernel ?

[TVDroid]

You have to test, one T can, the other not. You need luck.

See my Signature, i got a T too and i can OC him realy great.

[robert266]

You have to test, one T can, the other not. You need luck.

if i have no luck can i update back to stock kernel with no problem?

[TVDroid]

When you have the StockROM, yes.

Tronsmart MK908II RK3188T Cortex-A9 Quad Core 1.4GHz Google Android 4.2 Mini TV BOX 2G/8G Bluetooth External Wifi Antenna-Black

btw. official update for all mk908II , its not a down locked cpu or anything ... its a new series cpu for tablets with low energy consumption and low temps , and more stabiliti.

This new cpu model with stock december 2013 kernel : Antutu : 16525 Points
Old Rk3188 Stock kernel dec 2013 : Antutu: 15797 Points .

In my opinion the new 1.4ghz cpu its not that crap like it looks..

Evolio is using right now the new cpus for more battery up time and low temps with stable using.

Hi all, I have a Tronsmart CX919 3188 T - (I think), I tried many roms and kernels, because I want a fluent 1080p system.The only rom I can use the Neomode 1.9a , with 720 and 1080 kernels max 1416Mhz (1080p not so fluent). But I have tried many roms for example finless 1.6b with oc kernels and they can run at 1920Mhz with blinking,but when I changed the HDMI mode to 720*540p the stick can run on 1920Mhz without blinking ( may it blink only once / 10minute) , and antutu say:resolution is : 1920*1080 !!! And can run. So in my opinion the processor can work at 1920Mhz, can make a fullhd picture, but at the end when it build the hdmi signal - there is some timing or other problem. I feel that is in the kernel, but I am not a developer.If somebody could write a good 1080p kernel/rom what can run at 1600-1700-1800Mhz for that tricky 3188T device it would be nice. (sorry for my English)

[robert266]

Hope soon as can Bob will make a room that support the new cpu chipset !

That is just sales patter. The T variant is a cluster****. Rockchip locked it to 1.4GHz. Don't believe me? Check their Github commits. The pesky GPL is preventing them from hiding the fact the fact they have capped the max frequency in software and upped the voltage, after the fact. Intel they are not.
