HPH RK3288 ROM v1.2 by mo123 (20141117)

[bluesmanuk]

Just use rom without any change of files... ressource or boot... I installed this rom on my r28 like that (don't forget to turn on lowerformat before flash rom).

@mo123... have you an idea to turn hdmi off ? thx.

Thanks

Just flashed it as is and it does indeed work without any modification.

Surprised but pleased

Now to do some testing.

I did try the 8Gb parameter file as well but that didn't work, so will use a parameter file from another ROM and see if that will work.

Followed the instructions, replacing the resource and boot images from the stock Tronsmart 110k4 ROM.

Flashed correctly but on restart it is stuck on the Tronsmart boot logo.

I Have test your rom now a bit and I like it much everything is super fast, I have tested spmc everything runs smoothly 1080p no problem but the only problem I have noticed it's digital Dolby sound 5/1 stuttering sound you may already know it

The SPMC playback is really good, no issues or crashes seeking in videos anymore and better 4K playback.
Remember to also restore Solo Launcher's 2 backups.
Solo Launcher is completely free and some of it's features are only available in paid Nova Launcher.

Can also release an SPMC addons update if interested. PM me the addons you want included, try to limit it to free, non-adware included addons.

Also want to make an app package but can't seem to find a working TWRP/CWM for RK3288 at the moment.

Very important to do a clean wipe, 'lowerformat' and use default parameter file, rk3288-3.10-uboot.parameter to avoid soft-bricking your device.

First, thank you mo123 for this rom. I installed it on my Beelink Ubox, the 8 gig model, and it installed perfectly.

I have only just begun to test it, so I will know more later. The first thing I tested was SPMC for the echo effect, and it is still there, but not as noticeable, but still there. The fast forwarding is working the best I have every seen on XBMC/Kodi with these Android boxes. I tried with the different hardware acceleration settings, but no help. Also, live TV streaming works for the SD channels, but not the HD channels.

A couple of items that have been removed is the email app, and I really use that. Google mail is not my primary email program. Also, I have become very used to the stock web browser, and you have replaced it with Dolphin browser, which is a very good browser, but us old people hate change. Haha.

It is very fast and smooth, Netflix gets to it's top speed (still DVD quality) in 23 seconds which is very good. Droidmote server works well.

The stock camera app is removed, but I use a different app anyway, and it works well. Have not tried it with Skype.

All in all, a very nice rom.

thanks

Edit 1: Live TV is working, problem was on my end. Noticed the stock IR remote does not work. I use the stock remote for XBMC/Kodi.

[Shadi86]

You have to format and reflash the ROM but use this parameter file, it will give you extra space for an 8GB box. The ROM was actually made for 16/32GB boxes. But will now have more space for 8GB boxes also.



Many Thanks MO123.

Im rocking this box its awesome

You can just flash the whole ROM.
Follow the instructions carefully.
If it doesn't work, look at #97. I uploaded the Ugoos boot.img and resource.img.
The HPH and Ugoos use the same hardware and firmware, so it shouldn't be an issue.

If you want to split your firmware
1. Open AndroidTool and go to 3rd tab, 'Advanced Function'
2. Then 'Firmware', Select your update.img file
3. Select 'Unpack' to unpack the firmware.

Wonderful !!!
it has finally worked !!!
thank you so much mo123 for your appreciated help and for being patient.

I have used the Boot.img and Resource.img from the unpacked ROM I referenced earlier (ChinaGadgetsReviews) dated 19.09.2014 and all the other files from your ROM.
I then followed the instructions from the 1st page (wait 5 minutes after the flash completes) and ta da !

Firmware seems stable. I use wired connection and it appears to be faster then with the original ROM (confirmed by SpeedTest).
The video and audio quality is much better with SPMC than with the other XBMC/Kodi versions I have tested before even on my Minix X8-H.
But not as good as the PCH A-410.
Picture is almost perfect!

Thank you ! Thank you !

PS: I have not used your Boot.img and Resource.img (.rar) posted in #97 as you stated they are too old.

Do I need change anything when I flash your rom, I am on 2 firmware older right now and I have the 4g/32 box.. Sorry I have not read the whole thread

Have to 'lowerformat' first before 'run' in AndroidTool in first tab.
Wait 5 minutes after flashing finished for everything to be set up before unplugging from PC.
Works on 16/32GB Box and Beelink, Tronsmart and Ugoos devices also.
