Yes, if you use your boot, resource & kernel.img.
Can extract it with the flash tool.
The EKB328/Q8 device has very slow RAM & EMMC speeds, I would try to send back to the seller and get a better device if still possible.

Is there any guide available to proceed step by step?
Do I have to extract files from NAND?
Where can I find flash tool?

You have to download the stock ROM of your device.
Then download my ROM with flash tool.
Then use the 2nd or last tab of the flash tool to 'unpack' the update.img(stock ROM).
Then copy the unpacked boot,resource & kernel into my ROM's rockdev/Image folder, replacing the 3 image files already there.
Then flash normally by 'lowerformat' and 'run' on the first tab of the flash tool.

Thanks
I have extracted stock rom dated 29/09 (latest released) and copied thos 3 files.
Are there high chances that I could brick device? I just have to find enough bravery to push the button.
I have seen that your system.img is about 800 mb compared to my stock image which is 560 mb, is it due to applications included in the release?
Sorry about all these noob questions.

Yes, there are lots of apps.
If flashing doesn't work, you can just reflash.
You can also use MaskROM flashing(short 2 pins on board) if your device seems dead, so don't worry.

mo123,
Ugoos have released new firmware yesterday for the UT3.
Version 2.04 not sure if any new fixes ontop of what you already have from other rk3288 firmware.
There is a readme inside the zip.
Its on there website, Google Ugoos.

Nothing worth making new firmware, everything already included in this ROM.
Only change is to built-in video player.
Will upload new kernel with
- extra 20+ usb webcam driver support
- NFS FS support
- Extra Gamepad support

I have seen that my stock firmware seems to have a more recent loader uboot: RK3288Loader_uboot_V2.15.02.bin . Does it make any difference with 2.15 included in your package?

No, a different bootloader won't make any performance difference.
Any firmware released after 12/11/2014 doesn't have any improvement compared to this one except to Realtek wifi and the build-in video player, so it's not worth wasting time flashing another ROM.

In your changelog it syas that ROM 1.2 uses loader uboot 2.17 though but the one included in zip file is 2.15. I am a bit confused

It is actually for the 17/11/2014 ROM, not the 12/11/2014 ROM.
I changed it.

"Firefly"

Looks as though this Rom should work for the Firefly. Waiting for delivery, I have one Question, is there an upgrade for Kernels to run the advertised 2.0Ghz. Been looking. but can't find anything.

It runs at 1.8Ghz.
For 2Ghz, you will need extra cooling.
Will see if I can get 2Ghz in future ROM.

Have the firefly scavenged one of my wife's dead heli for a heat sink and bought a new fan. Set my board spacers and height of heat sink to mount fan properly. Ready to make some smores or play some serious games.
