Kimdecent B13 / MK812 with external Wifi Antena - Finless BETA ROM 1.7

[DiZet]

Just received a new shipment of B13-s. Switched them on and all have 4.2.2 on them

Checked the A/V out and it is working. Antutu score was 7493. In "sound output devices" there is 3 options including 5.1 multichannel. Do not know if it is actually working since I have nothing to test it on.

So the official rom must be out. Do not know where to download it from though. Will ask the supplier maybe he knows.

4.2.x ROM: Any updates??

Hi Finless/Neo,

Any updates on the 4.2.x version of the ROM for this device??

[mite_jan]

For XBMC look here http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.p...d-what-doesn-t

Finless rom comes fully rooted, so just install it on your stick. Link is on the thirst page, post 11 by Finless. Instructions are in README FIRST.TXT.

i have bricked one of the sticks with finless rom so that's why i dont want to flash it (different bootloader probably) and the stick now even couldn't go into recovery / flashing mode

i will try to replace those files provided by leolas for xbmc HW decoding
hopefully i can first root it

any usb hub support with Finless 1.7 beta?

[DiZet]

how have you rooted the stick guys ?
mine came with stock 4.1.1 non-rooted and i am using it on an old TV via the AV output
i have immediatelly installed the XBMC libstagefright build and noticed that hardware decoding doesnt work with HD(720p and 1080p)
what do i need to update so xbmc should play at least play 720p good
do i need to update the libstagefright lib and how can i do that
i have found CWM flashable zip that includes couple of files
if i replace them from here will it be a success story ?

also for root how do i need to power the device , DC port in the power outlet , standard usb in the PC (with standard usb male to male cable ?

will it support AV output

No, AV Out is disabled at 4.2. Don´t know why.

Right now I am with the work with it, the android 4.2.2 Software is more than buggy.
I will use 4.2.1 right now.

Hi neomode. Are you still planning to release a new rom or you have abandoned the idea?

I still hope he will make a rom.

Or Finles/Bob making a Finless 2.0 or something...but having lost his father (I know that feeling, mine died a couple weeks ago...cancer) and lots of the new quad devices around i doubt it...so sad

[DiZet]

I will make the Rom hope to finish the Rom today or tomorrow.

antutu score

i have asked the MK812 makers a question why is the score so different in android 4.1 vs 4.2 and they have said that the CPU is overclocked in 4.2
"V4.1.1 firmware has lower Antutu score, because it has not over clocking on CPU performance"

but then again from their picture i see that the CPU works at 1600mhz

does that means i can use 4.1.1 and overclock the cpu somehow
can someone confirm on what frequency does the 4.1 works and on what 4.2

thanks

use Rockchip v1.7 USB software windows 7 64 bit, also standard USB cable

Wich USB Port do you guys use ?

The big normal one or the micro (DC) one ?

I cant get it to work.

The micro (DC) port (as you describe it).

As Nascimento points out in this thread, you must use a STANDARD USB cable from the little side micro-USB port to your Windows PC USB port. The brain-damaged cable that comes with the B13 mini-PC only serves to carry power to the miniPC, it is not also usable for data transfer the way a standard cable is useful.

How awful the amount of time I wasted trying to get the v1.5 and v1.6 Rockchip USB software to install on my 64-bit Windows 7 system. All that was needed was to use VERSION 1.7 of the Rockchip USB software,
www.freak-tab.de/freaktab/Rockchip_Batch_Tool_v1.7.rar
and it worked perfectly and immediately. Oh yes and I also booted my Windows PC with the F8 boot option, to not check for driver signatures.
