AW: Kitkat Kernels for All (well most!)

Hello,
did anyone ever try to compile kitkat kernel for pipo m6 max? (not pro!!)
Or could anyone try?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers

I didn't have much luck on my 5th and 6th MK809IV... Got 2 with Mediatek wifi / bt :-/

Can someone PLEASE compile a kernel with native 1080p? I don't like how it looks with "am display-size 1080x1920"

- ethernet yes support

Who could make friends with these two nuclei and finally make a working kernel Kitkata for this board?Please !!

Working 1080p kernel for J22 - Nandflash/SD Card Unmounted

Hi d33. I have the same J22 Stick with AP6210 Wifi/BT chip that has been mentioned several times on the forums. It has the same print on board which says: 2013-06-17 CYXTECH_RK3188_909 V1_1. I have checked the other side of the board and can confirm it has a 3188T processor. The latest KK firmware update posted for CX919-II works fine on it (both 720p and 1080p), however, I needed an optimized and rooted ROM so flashed Finless 2.0 beta on it, which works fine with the provided default kernel, but it is 720p and clocked to 1.2GHz, which plays even 720p videos choppy/laggy. The OC kernels provided in the Bob's Finless 2.0 thread also work fine, but again those are all 720p kernels and clock max at 1.4GHz. I understand that OCing more can be harmful for this underpowered chip. However, still, I need an OCed GPU/RAM and with 1080p support. When I flash your provided kernels (be it 4.2 or 4.1 or any previous versions), the 6210 and alternate 6210 kernels boot fine when powered with USB cable coming from computer or TV USB port, but keep rebooting with an external power adapter (weird but suggests probably voltage/amperes are too high). Also, the nandflash or sdcard seems to be non-existent/absent with these kernels, so apps keep crashing all the time. However, good thing is that max clock speed is shown as 1.6GHz against 1.4GHz max on other kernels. Can you please spare some time and see what the problem is and make a working 1080p kernel for this board? Thanks in advance.

did I miss it?

I'm curious as well, why a return to interest in the old chips? Is it related to the underwhelming performance of the initial amlogic s802 chips?

[unikorn]

Never mind. Please ignore my earlier request. Found a bunch of OC kernel set somewhere in between posts of this thread, which is working perfectly so far, and somehow the kernel labeled stock-cpu-gpu-ddr is OCed for all three at max. I have limited the CPU to 1.4GHz at least.

I also wonder this. Its great news for me, because I do have one of these older chips. What does this mean? Will there be even better kernels? And improved kitkat roms?

1366x768

Hi all,

D33:
Thanks for your great work... it took a while to found this thread.

As time goes on more and more people has a display with 1366x768 native resolution.
A guy called gerry1980 patched a kernel to support 1366x768 resolution.

http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?3238-1366x768-resolution&p=115751&viewfull=1#post115751

If there is a way to include this in your kernel as well that would be great for many of us!
My device: MK908II

Thank you!

Check this to see if the resolution appears

THe DMESG showed that the kernel had MTK6622 (BT on IO port 279) and ESP8089 (Wifi) drivers configured and they installed succesfully. The USB ethernet is supplied by a Corechips USB2.0 device (which is standard in most builds I think)

Try this kernel and report back with DMESG

Another one to try - this one is a 4.23 KitKat kernel compiled with the JB MT7601 wifi driver

Hi d33

I know it's an old device, but all the RK3066 wifi chips now work on KitKat roms except MK808B RK903(BCM4330) wifi. If you can take a look.

Here is a patch mawkish made for an old 3.0.8 kernel that made the wifi work.

http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?6454-Temporary-RK903-Wifi-Patch-for-MK808B

Here is the JB dmesg and KitKat config file(with non working wifi)

http://www.mediafire.com/download/cxvck78u8ex2lhy/mk808b.rar

Here are the GPIO pins

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlY8Ntc7De3adEgxZEw3eWF1cmZBbTdtMmQxNThBdGc&usp=sharing#gid=0

According to me it's pin PIN3_PD0, the bluetooth and other pins seem to be configured correctly in the kernel source.
Maybe the voltage or clock switch settings are configured incorrectly or the bluetooth/wifi chip is connected somehow? It is configured with WM83* PMU but maybe RK30 PMU should be used?

Compiled working kernel from here with above config, but no wifi.
