Re: [Pipo Project] M6 Pro

Should be equal plus better GPS. V1.02 will boot :-)

Hi!
Is it possible to have a little bit stronger wifi or 3g signal?

The wifi firmware is loaded at boot from a file stored within the Android system files. It is not kernel dependant. Only the driver is held in the kernel.

I'll check the dates on both the driver and the firmware to see if there is a newer version on the Rockchip FTP.

I think the latest version on the Rockchip FTP site is WiFi Driver 4.65 and Dongle Host Driver, version 1.28.23.6 (r)

Looking at the kernel I'm building with I'm loading Dongle version 1.88.45.1 (r420671) and wifi driver 4.74!!!!

Firmware binaries are in /system/etc/firmware/ and for the AP6476 the bin is fw_RK901.bin

[rrileypm]

There are some settings files for each of the drivers in etc/firmware. I'm not sure which one is actually installed on the M6 Pro, but there is a setting called maxpower=##. The number is the percentage of power for the wifi modem. On some early ROM's I increased this number to provide more power...but it also increases heat and battery consumption...so you may need to experiment with this setting to find the best number.

Also, the M6 Pro has a hardware issue that was well documented among the early RileyROM threads for the M6 Pro with the wifi antenna. Some antenna's were too short. Some antenna's were not soldered in properly. The solution for some was to replace the wifi antenna with one designed for a laptop....again there's thread that covers it in the main Pipo section.

I just checked the firefly RK3288 code and the driver versions there are DHD 1.88.45.0 and wifi driver 4.80. So it seems unlikely there is anything newer than what we are building.

Interesting stuff. This file?

There are a bunch of files in this folder that aren't the actual settings for the installed hardware. You might try matching the file names with the devices that show up in the dmesg. I'm pretty sure this one isn't the wifi file.

Would You so kind, to describe in some point how to find my files version? I found the nvram file, (i hope) AP6746.txt, and pa0maxpower=80.

[rrileypm]

I'm not sure exactly which one it is...but you can try editing each one....sorry, I don't have access to my M6 Pro to look right now. I will try to find it when I get home.

I've found, how i think the ap6476.txt was the correct one, but editing it has no effect, and what about 3g? Is it posible on this freaktab 1.1 rom with stevejc kernel i had more better 3g signal?

Maakie, SteveJC and D33 all use exactly the same source code. All will have identical wifi modules.

v1.02 for test

[rrileypm]

I'll have to let Steve answer that one.

Thanks to Maakie,SteveJC and D33!

Unfortunately this kernel isn't booting! ;(

[FatFreddyDK]

it doesn't have wifi 5 ghz
only 2.4

Ok Thanks.
