Pipo M6 Max

Here is FreaktabROM v1.0.0 with the above changes:

FreaktabROM v1.0.0

Please test to see that everything boots and works OK.

This version does not contain a new TWRP recovery. We will add that when it is available.

Thanks Slowry, for giving us an excellent base to work with.

Enjoy!!!!!!

Arrived home, downloaded the FreakTabROM 1.0.0 and flashed it. First impression WOW. Looks really nice. It seems to run quite smooth. Have not tested to many apps so far.

The first problem I found has to do with gmail / inbox. The inbox app does not want to connect to gmail at all. Returns immediately with an error message. Also the gmail app returns with the error message "Unknown issue with Google Play services. Going there with the browser works OK.

Thank you all for your hard work. The image looks very promising. Will use my M6 some more this weekend. Will report back.


Cheers

Have you updated all of the Google apps from Play Store? Sometimes an update is required to get everything running smoothly.

[andbroe]

Yes, all apps are reported up to date.

Have been playing with the "new" M6 all afternoon and I must say, I really like it. Is fast and so far no new problems

Broken update, I made a mistake somewhere. You can try to flash this zip in recovery mode to roll back to the old play service. After reboot, if you run gmail, you be will be prompted for an update... the good one !

Slowry your are the man.

Flashed your zip file, was then able to update the Google Play Services and now all the previous problems are gone. Thank you very much.

I will now continue to use the M6 for some more time and then report back. So far I am more then satisfied. Feels like a new tablet

Thanks Slowry!!!

What virtual machine use? Dalvin or ART?

As for the possible bugs detected:
- The screen brightness to a minimum black leaves.
- No located in wireless networks.
- The change in normal HD screen resolution does not change, only the DPI (240 vs 320)

The performance are very similar between ART and Dalvik, ART is a bit faster and it's the futur of android but some old apps will not work with ART.

Here is an update to install in recovery:

- add NetworkLocation.apk
- fix HD / Normal switching resolution problem
- include previous gms roll-back patch

I don't really understand the problem with brightness : you mean that the lowest value is to high ? It's the min before blind mod.

The problem is that when the brightness is less than 20% the screen longer seen, becomes completely black.

With the latest update:
- The location for wifi is not working.
- The display in "normal" works fine but in "rendering" to move web / facebook / etc is not fluent and performance "Antutu" no improvement pages.

There are a user in Spain, only one, it ceases to have sound to upgrade your rom but it works well with the rom 'Riley 2.0'

Thanks for your time and work

For the graphic perf. in normal display I'm afraid I can do anything, I alway use HD with my retina tab !

I don't have the brightness issue. I can make a new kernel and increase min brightness for you to test.
Perhaps he has sound whith heaphone plugged ! If so, speaker and jack are reversed in assembly and there is a way to detect this with hardware gpio but how to find the graal ?
For now, I just can do a special reversed sound kernel ! Just tell me If I'm wrong ...

Different hardware... the nightmare begin.

Here is a kernel with a different brightness scale, just flash it alone.
