Kit Kat 4.4.2 RK3066 (Fully Working)

[Pramones5]

Youtube ads

Sorry for my broken english.

Install Imito_Mod_4.4_1080p_v1.0.3_by_goblin88, then GApps_Light_4.4.x_signed (CWM).

Now able to go ART runtime (ART on my Mk 809II is incredible smooth).

Problem is Youtube ads.
How to block Youtube ads (on ART) without Xposed? Xposed Framework is not compatible with ART.

Any help?

I think goblin88 ROM has already AddAway, so basically you would only need to add sources for that case .. something like this :

Youtube ads

Did as above. Still get youtube ads.

Ok, try to add this as well to the blacklist:

Hi Avion,
Thank you for your work!
Tried to flash your kernel on my UG007 which had experienced sound issue with shomari kernel.
It's great, stick has obtained a voice!
But I have bumped into two another new problems. Wlan and Lan(I use 100% tested USB-Ethernet adapter) speed is too low.
I'm not going to use wifi/BT but Lan speed is most important thing to me.
My UG007 has excellent speed with shomari kernel, but it's mute.
Would you be so kind to change 88772 driver to some better or newer one?
Kind regards

Well personally I'm using both (asix usb adapter and the wifi module) and sometimes I'm detecting poor WLAN speed (about 750-900 kbs) but on other hand I did measured it once on the same kernel by copying a 500mb file over the LAN and I've managed to get almost 2mbs.
I still didn't find out what would be the reason for this changes in speed. Only thing different is that I enabled ART cache and I'm suspicious that it's somehow degrading the functionality of the WLAN.
I'll be doing some tests with asix Ethernet, and I'll share my finding here. This speed issue might be caused also by under-clocked kernel speed (not in my case as I'm keeping it at 1500).

Asix usb driver in mine kernel is "4.1.1" while latest available druver sources on the asix site are "4.16.0", so I'll try to merge that and compile it later today. It won't hurt to have latest driver.

Latest ASIX usb lan driver

Here it goes, latest asix driver compiled in the kernel:

http://d-h.st/f6u5

Kernel is overclocked (1600/400/533) so you should use setCPU or other app to setup it's max/min frequencies together with some governor (don't use performance with large max value as it will cook your stick).
Other additions are as before: fixed HDMI sound, compiled in tun.ko, ntfs filesystem (rw support) etc.

Thank you very much for your attempt to improve our life and solve my(common) Lan speed issue.
I'm sorry but this newest kernel doesn't recognize my USB-Ethernet adapter at all.
Shomari's/chinese stock kernel provides me with speed about 90Mbps in case I use this adapter.
Your previous kernel managed to produce up to 30Mbps via Lan.
Concerning Wlan performance...
Both your kernels have wifi connection speed 65Mbps while Shomari's/chinese stock kernels have 135 at the same spatial placement. Real speed is up to 50Mbps for Shomari's/chinese kernels and up to 17-18Mbps for your ones.
I'll be glad to test something else if you have your ideas and strenghts to compile

I think I've found the issue with new driver:
DWC_OTG: dwc_otg_hcd_urb_enqueue urb->transfer_buffer address not align to 4-byte 0xd468eec2

It seems that defaults have been changed in this new (or the old one had overridden values in the asix.h).
Here goes the new one with fixed aligning (forced to 4byte align trough DEFINE):

http://d-h.st/qK5e

I'll test this new compiled kernel probably later If I manage to get some free time.

Transfer speed relays heavily on processor frequency, so If you use 1.600 overclocked kernel you will get higher speed. (I've tested this on stock kernel and mine)

I'm quite happy with WLAN speeds, on old Finless roms and stock shomari I coulnd't get over the 750 kb/s transfers (using ES FILE MNGR), while using latest compiled kernel I could transfer with 2 mb/s over the LAN. So basically this are not exact speeds but just a quick comparisons.

Thanks friend,
I've just tried it.
Unfortunately this one cannot see my adapter too

Ouch... , I'll try to debug it and see if there is any way to make it work with this kernel. Unfortunately sources from which I'm compiling are surely quite different from the original sources used for the stock kernel. So this is best effort to have everything working at least in some usable state.

I'll be releasing modded ROM with some build.prop tweaks for the LAN/ETH but that shouldn't make much difference. At the same time I'm planning to release the source (with all the changes / bugfixes to the kernel) on the git. So anyone with some basic linux skills will be able to compile it's own kernel.

I would be gratefull if you found your time to fix this problem

Ok I've fixed that issue. I had to hack the usb otg code and apply a fix from tegra SOC (found on freaktab).

Here is a working kernel with latest asix driver:

http://d-h.st/qvOy

This adds support for some new asix chips and products. I'm not sure if it will increase the speed of the ethernet. Basically there might be different tweaks not related directly to the driver, more recent code for rk3066 SOC used in the stock kernel that makes its net go faster etc.

Flashed it. Works but speed is up to 17-18Mbps.
I change kernels only nothing else. When I flash stock/shomari kernel back I have ~90Mbps. So I think it's not requiered any additional tweak in system and some kind of optimization has already done.

thanks Avion for al development hope it get to good port since my WIFI performance is really poor..

also a pending point to solve is location services, link on first page is down.... could you merge the fix with your kernel?

thank
