Kit Kat 4.4.2 RK3066 (Fully Working)

Thanks for that. So which wifi chipset should I start with to get the most testers? I need people who can provide GPIO data for wifi from stock kernels (JB kernels fine) and who can report DMESG from my dev Kitkat kernels to get them working

[Shomari]

I mean what chips; wifi HDMI audio codec etc

We have mt5931 wifi; which I *think* is the only RK3066 tv stick chipset with fully functioning KK. Sound module is rk-hdmi-i2s-hifi (is that what you'd build against? - not even sure) we have the I2S sound options in audio manager

....but - if you're looking at RK3066, you'd be most appreciated building kernels for the poor devils stuck with original MK808B sticks (different chipset), and there are plenty users still, that have nothing in the way of working KK kernels.

At least we have a fully working set that most users can get by on. Audio/tun module fixes would be the cherry on top for users with MTK5931 such as in this thread. From what I can tell from this ROM thread it seems the edid error mostly affects people on resume from standby, while only some users are affected anytime the device is connected.

Re: Kit Kat 4.4.2 RK3066 (Fully Working)

Ah! Would it be useful if I try? What hardware is this? Is there a .config?

There should be .conifg for this set. The hardware is in the OP. I'm lacking a workstation (because 'real' work demands other things w/ my resources at the moment) but some minor fixes are needed; such as the HDMI sink edid error response patch, and possibly tun.ko matching because there's been at least a few users that have said they can't get their typical tries on the live ROM to work.

Re: Kit Kat 4.4.2 RK3066 (Fully Working)

I thought you are the dev for this kernel?

...no. Don't know where you got that impression; these kernels are all stock factory rockchip hackjobs. I haven't compiled a single RK kernel for these forums yet.

I see no reason why it won't. It doesn't affect me (the HDMI check) as severely as others so I never implemented it personally. But it's the exact same code/response so anyone compiling with the fix can do so with confidence.

Re: Kit Kat 4.4.2 RK3066 (Fully Working)

Shomari - is there a tun.ko included in your oc kernel? If not can you please provide either a usable tun.ko for this rom/kernel - or better yet compile a kernel w tun.ko preincluded? I'd really need to be able to watch bbc iplayer...

Also again - would much appreciate re-ups of that locations patch as well as the kernel for cwm... Thanks people :-)

Glad to see you up and running again. If ge.tt is still down, use the fusedlocation.apk located in your system/priv-app as an alternative. All other instructions remain the same.

I still haven't tested tun.ko modules. Hopefully someone who has can chime in. If no solution is found I may look into it next.

Could someone confirm if the SMIC' RK3188 fix works in RK3066?
Thanks in advance

The fix is really quick, supplied by SMIC in the RK3188 forum.

yes, please post dmesg. Did you change the tv monitor, or did you test both devices on the same tv?

I'm sure it's the same HDMI edid read error which is a known issue with RK kit kat kernels.

...try putting the device in standby (with tv on) - then turning the tv off and waiting until you hear it 'click' - or just waiting about a minute.

Then, resume the device from standby by pressing any button (spacebar, etc) before turning the tv on. That may cause the TV to get the proper response from the HDMI sink. The dmesg shows it's the same KK kernel RK bug that's muting the sound.

Hi Shomari,
Here are two dmesg files from two identical UG007 sticks flased with the same ROM

I tasted both devices on the same TV.

Hi, flashed your excellent rom but reboots in a bootloop always, have to flash your overclocked kernel too?, what is the procedure to flash this rom? Flashed with RK batch tool, flash well but hang in a bootloop
Sorry for my English is not my native speak.

Thanks

Update: Thanks i did it, best rom so far for iMito MX2, thanks for your hard work in this rom.

[fireplayer]

anyone?

all links on ge.tt seem to be down - can anyone please upload the locations fixer - and the oc kernel for cwm?

also is there a tun.ko for this now that I by a miracle got it working?
