NEW - MK908 Finless 1.8 ROM

[Ploggy]

I believe you've got the RK3188T version - "Rk3188T Quad Core 1.4ghz (Cortex-A9)"

Is there anything that can be done?

logitech c525 webcam not working

Hello, Bob. Currently my Logiteck c525 doesn't work with this rom. Maybe you can fix it?

Best regards,
danta.

thanks Bob and mhkao2100

I have encounter same problem too, the parmeters file of 4gb & 6gb is wrong.... change the system partiton size from 0x120000 to 0x130000 will make it work! for example: 0x00130000@0x00884000(system),-@0x009B4000(user)

thanks mhkao2100 your fix worked for me on the 6gb

Finally flashed this rom and am amazed atm, will see how it behaves in the next days

Edit: only issue i see for now is that wifi disconnects when bluetooth is enabled, but afterwards it reconnects and is permanently functional in parallel, which was not the case before.

I've flashed this ROM since it came out and so far all I can say is GREAT JOB.
I'm only waiting if Bob will fix flickering in recovery mode and add CWM or TWRP

[FadeFx]

What for do u use recovery mode? I have not found a usecase yet.

It is much easier to make full backup and restore of ROM. Apps like Titanium backup can read and restore apps from such images.
Of course, upgrade from recovery is much easier and no problems with windows/linux drivers and detecting devices, and it can read SD card.

[FadeFx]

You can flash firmware from recovery that is not an update.zip? Didnt even boot to recovery once yet, but i am pretty sure you need a cwm based recovery to take nandroid backups, and afaik finless doesnt include cwm in his rom.

So if you see screen flickers in cwm recovery, you need to talk to the recovery maker, as it has its own kernel which needs hdmi voltage to be corrected.

I talked to Bob just page before and he said that he left recovery as it is but will try to make new one with CWM or TWRP.
So, I have this problem with this recovery (original). I have same problem when ROM boots up for first time but when I change resolution to 1280x720@60 everything is OK. Tested on three TV's and only one didn't have that problem.

Loaded this up a few times on my MK908v3. Started with the 1080p boot and 1080p kernel, but it looked a little off to me - everything just seemed way too big, so instead opted for the 720p boot and 1080p kernel - which looked a nicer fit for me.

I did however try an overclock kernel (went for the max - kernel1080_cpu1800h_gpu600_ddr667.img) but am seeing quite a few reboots in general use - air mouse cursor hangs, then just reboots...

Anyone else seeing this, and if so, in which kernel(s)? Which one(s) are working for you guys?

Is it possible to reflash *just* the kernel, and so not have to restore everything again?

Sure, you can uncheck everything else but the kernel and you will be fine.

Cool, thanks. Maybe i'll load some up and run then for a day or two to see which are OK, then post the results.

I am not sure, but i think oc us not recommended without a cooling mod. I use my v3 with standard 1080p kernel and all looks good for now
