[EXPERIMENTAL] Unofficial CM12 for WeTek Play with Kodi & TVH Live TV

[ChristianTroy]

You can control the color through a patch that is included in OE (I don't see the point of it though, that's why I haven't included it), you can turn on/off wifi/eth but not the power led, there's no interface (documented at least) to control it apart from sending the gpio that turns it red or blue.

If you find a way to do it I'll be very pleased to include it

ps: the kernel can't do nothing if that diode has not been designed to be turned off on the board.

Take a look at this thread, it is discussed here but it seems its not possible like you said. It is interesting that someone has complained before: "Hardware Related Topic in Shell"

I think I have to find a nice to reduce the brightness but I hope a dark tape will not block the IR sensor - I think the IR is built inside the power button.

Honestly, the big lights are useless, why do they always have to make it so large and bright?

[ChristianTroy]

The IR is next to wifi / eth leds, almost in the middle of the box

I'm currently using tvheadend with oscam on openelec. If I wish to use tvheadend and oscam with kodi on android are the below steps correct?

Install
* ROM (CM11) 2015-03-16 - Real 1080p output (r1)
* GAPPS 2014-06-06 (LITE)
* Kodi 14.1 "Preinstall"

Then setup tvheadened as I did with openelec - No different I assume?
Then setup oscam as I did with openelec - No different I assume?

Thanks

You just need to install rom and gapps zip, the real 1080p zip is a goodie that I put there (any MX device renders UI and video under Android at real 1080p) for those that care more about image quality than overall speed (if you have a decent tv set you really will notice the difference in output btw)

For Kodi I suggest you to download the apk from the second post (it's a build I modified with some patches that enhance experience on WeTek), put it on the microsd and install it from cm file manager.

Tvh and oscam are configured the same as OE (I suggest you to flash OE 5.0.5/5.0.6 on nand before so you will have the latest bootloader that works better with the latest dvb drivers), apart from tvh capmt, you can set it up like this



Read carefully the release notes and the second post

@Troy

Can't the bootloader be flashed separately without flashing OE?

[ChristianTroy]

You can flash it from the serial port interrupting u-boot if you like

mmcinfo
fatload mmc 0 0x82000000 bootloader.img
sf probe 2
sf erase 0 90000
sf write 0x82000000 0 90000
sf erase 0x100000 0x8000
reset

Or flash this zip (I used it on my spare board and it worked but since it's something delicate I don't put it in the op)

It is, but it doesn't work nicely with Kitkat's CM Superuser app, it's written in the second post.

If I go to the link https://github.com/christiantroy/xbm...x-WeTek_mod_v2 from the second post of this thread

download kodi-14.2rc1-Helix-WeTek_mod_v2-armeabi-v7a.apk

copy to micro sd card

then once in cm recovery what's the process? Am I downloading the wrong file? When I go through the same process of installing a rom the apk is not visible.

Sorry for asking what seems like silly questions. Thanks

[ChristianTroy]

I'm telling you to install the apk from the file manager... So you have to do it once you booted into Android
