General AML S802 Device release discussions

[gene0915]

Are Tronsmart Vega source code available? Because the generic kernel sources that amlogic release at openlinux webpage usually are not enough to compile a working kernel for an amlogic product, not without the specific customer folder in it......

Would be nice if a working kernel can be made. If not possible with the generic source, then is as close source as rockchip.

This true? I always thought that was the big advantage AMLogic had over RK processors....that AMLogic embraced open source. Is the party over?

Also, all the DD/DTS pass through problems put to rest?

Looks like early reports of problems with the Ethernet port and overheating were not accurate with the S802 based boxes?

Is anyone else having problems installing apps from the Play store? On certain apps I'm getting "error couldnt install on USB or SD card". I've reflashed the FW and checked I've enough storage but I'm still getting these errors?

Does it get hot? That is one of my concerns, also is it stable? Any reboots or freezing?

I've only had it for three hours now and no, not hot, no freezing at all.

The 5 gHz band is blazing fast I get 60 down at my house and I get 60 down on my vega. I'm loving this thing so far.

Looking at. the kernel settings more, it uses zram and a hotplug governor?? Strange for a TV box.

Just checking the kernel settings here, the CPU seems to be locked to 1.6ghz max. Tried changing it with trickster but doesn't stick. Can anyone confirm this?

Rk3288 won't come to market so fast, trust me! and because rockchip refuse to open source,so people still love to get amlogic chip
