[Ploggy]

Does this ROM work on Netxeon MK908 V5.0? I have searched the forums and couldn't find if anyone confirmed if finless 1.8 ROM is workon on netxeon mk908 v5

This ROM will work fine with the mk908 V5 I have the exact same stick as you and have no problems.

You wont get a fully working Kit Kat rom for the mk908 V5 your better off staying on Finless 1.8 for the moment.

Anyone tried the mk908II kitkat rom going arround here with the kernel of the test rom?

Should work now. My partner changed the settings for some reason. I wish I would have known as that might explain why we have not been getting reviews lately.

ROM is now re-uploaded WITH fixed parameter files!

OK you all asked me nicely to make a ROM from the latest MK908 release that is suppose to fix screen flicker. So here you go!
If you like it, feel free to donate. Donations seem to be few and far between lately
Either way, ENJOY!






__________________________________________________ _


Features and release notes for my 1.8 ROM:

1) Rooted and new SU and Superuser applied that supports Android 4.2.2
The stock Tronsmart ROM was rooted but NOT CORRECTLY! And was using an old version!

2) Stock ROM was only 2 Gig of APP space.
BUT you also have parameter file options!
There are also 1gb, 2gb, 4gb and 6gb options.
Read below for how to change that in the flash tool.
Realize if you use this 6gb option, internal SDcard will only have about 600 megs of free space!

3) Debloated of junk APPs and Google Apps you can get from Google Play.
I also updated Google Play and required Google APPs to the latest version.
You should not have to update anything as of this date. Nice and clean

4) I dumped the crappy launcher and replaced it with the stock useful launcher.
However, in /system/app is the original launcher named Launcer2.aps.
Using a root explorer (don't forget to mount system as RW!) rename Launcher2.apk to
Launcher2.apx. Then rename Launcher2.aps to Launcher 2.apk and reboot
Now you have the stock launcher if you really want it.

5) As always, full init.d support! If you do not know what that is... ignore it. For geeks that want to use it. It is there!

6) Build.prop edit to open up the Google Play store to APPs that normally say "not compatible".
I am spoofing a Samsung device that will show almost any APP as compatible.
Your device will show up in Google play as Samsung device not a MK908! Understand this please.
I also left the original build.prop in the ROM called build.orig.
If you want to go back, just use ES File Explorer or a root file explorer and rename build.prop to build.old
Then rename build.orig to build.prop.
Go into settings, apps, all and go into the Google Play app. Clear the cache and data.
Reboot! You should be back to showing up as a 908.
WARNING if you do this, you need to be using the 1080 kernel or your screen will be oversized!

7) I removed the pre-install crap and Flumpster's Beyond XBMC.
Tronsmart ripped off Flumpster's work without asking for permission from him!
If you want the latest Beyond XBMC then just download it from FreakTab.
Oh and Thank Freaktab developer Flumpster for making it!

9) VSYNC patched kernels! Yep the stock kernel in this ROM has micro frame skipping.
Sometimes I just get Tronsmart! They fix it in some of their devices but not in others.
Anyway, micro frame skipping is patched in all the supplied kernels in the ROM.

10) Kernel choices:
Yes I give you TRUE 1080P kernel! I patched the stock kernel myself!
Kernels:
kernel720.img
kernel1080.img
There are also matching boot.img's.
The boot1080.img will give you large icons (like 720P) with a 1080P kernel.
Note: DO NOT use boot1080.img with a 720 kernel or your screen will be all jacked up on boot!

11) I also provide some overclocked kernels! See below.

12) I added a reboot APP that will allow optional reboot options like reboot to bootloader (flash mode).

13) My usual patches and updates for performance.

As always, read the readme.txt file for more information and instructions!

Re : NEW - MK908 Finless 1.8 ROM

Did anyone manage to get a VPN running?
I tried to connect to different VPNs for video-streaming which is geo-blocked in my country. When the connection is established, the MK908 crashes and reboots.

Any suggestions?

Read earlier in this thread
there is a solution using
tun.ko installer
Univresal init.d

Since the links are working again, I've removed the copy.com mirror. Better to get everything from the source.

Yieha, it worked! Thanks a lot, mate!

Lol, i didnt even expect too much, however, glad i could help...

Afaik there is nothing you could be missing, but as wifi and bt affect each other, i would try disabling wifi, reboot and enable bluetooth before enabling wifi.

I still can't turn on Bluetooth. Tried re-flashing, etc. but still no luck. In Settings/Bluetooth it's just stuck to OFF. Clicking on the button doesn't alter the state

Can someone please post a screenshot of their settings/bluetooth screen where it is enabled? Maybe I notice something that I am missing..

Hello, It works, but unusable.
I can add users, but:
-If I logon with the added user there is no logout,if the user hides the bottom bar it cannot be shown again(bottom swype is not working, only works for the owner)
-I can logon only once with the added user(when I create, after that I can change its name, et,c, but cannot login with that).

Too bad, this would have been a usefull feature...
