Lollipop - Wasser Firmware for Beelink R89

[Mario023]

If someone can give me a link of the last wasser Kodi. Thanks.

There is a link on first page of this thread, under Version 3.0.1, http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player-...or-beelink-r89
wasser Kodi-15.2 , may be it´s this what are you looking for; for the latest v3.0.4a it had been recommended ZDMC or superceleron version posted a couple post before. Anyway, if you don´t use PT official Kodi v16.1 RC2 works fine.

This command will not work as expected in at least last Wasser's LP ROM because DTB in resource file contains only one SYS_STATUS value called "NORMAL" (echo "n" > /dev/video_state) and there isn't for example SYS_STATUS_PERFORMANCE. That's why last value from overclockmatic DDR frequency table isn't efectively used as in my assumption. Overclockmatic_RK3288 was built with thought that last value should be associated with "PERFORMANCE" mode. To get higher DDR frequency just change penultimate DDR value (600) to some bigger number but do not forget to set 1200 mV for ARM LOGIC in this DDR operation point because it might be required for this SoC to operate DDR-1600 mode in stable condition. 800 Mhz (1600MHz DDR) for DDR3-1600 memory at 1.5V (seen as 1.2V in PMIC (regulator.1) because it is decived by voltage divider on feedback input) shouldn't be a problem. For RK3288 it might because according to this SoC White Papers it is only validated for DDR3-1333 memory.

Note: 670 (646 in real life) DDR frequency might be default in my internal overclockmatic config. In the wild I might have choose different value .

Right, so the only way was pushing the value from .cfg file; now I have:

DDR 3
456 1125
792 1200
800 1200

The voltage values that you have on the config files for v1.0.6 and 1.0.7-LP for DDR for the higher clocks frequencies with voltages > 1200, here on this LP rom produce adverse results on antutu scores, making lower and erratic the scores, these come down to 42K to 49K; but making the voltage = 1200, without exceed that value makes the score comes back to the normal. However the device so far on any situation had not crash it or hang it, the device it´s very stable under this FW.

With DDR @ 792 Mhz (1.2v) & GPU @ 600 Mhz (1.25v) & with the CPU @ 1.92Ghz (1.4v) the antutu (v6.1.2) score hit > 57K.

I like last Wasser's LP ROM quite a bit but there are some quirks that I might want to change. For example GPU operation table contains only two frequency values and the lowest is quite high. [email protected] for idle GPU frequency IMHO isn't rational especially if you consider that this was maximum frequency in first ROM's and this SoC GPU can work with frequency as low as 180MHz at 0.9V. But maybe I don't know something and it can have impact on stability which is rather exemplary in last Wasser's firmware.

In LP there are several things that had changed, may be that 3rd lowest frequency value it´s not required as you say; so given this, the only way to get GPU@ 600 Mhz it´s using this value as middle point into the .cfg file, because the system will not check the 3rd higher value; this I get now:

GPU 3
417 1100
600 1250
625 1275

The system continues stable after couples of hours turned on & using it.

Can the GPU go higher, for example makes 625 Mhz the middle point and going the higher point to 700 Mhz @ 1.3v?

Edit: on Mali web page, T760 GPU appears 650 Mhz as the frequency value (in 28nm HPM), not sure it´s referencing as a maximum; may be all the GPU frequencies values managed before into the fimwares had been very conservative. Not sure as well what the differences can be between Mali T-760 as it´s reported now into LP the R-89 GPU versus the Mali T-764 GPU as had been told from the original hardware specs of the Beelink R-89.

That looks good. SYS_STATUS_NORMAL will be 792MHz and it should be default DDR frequency. Setting voltage for DDR memory higher than 1.2V might be contrproductive because in reality regulator.1 (DDR3 memory voltage) is softlocked at 1.2V but regulator.3 (ARM_Logic) is tight to memory voltage from their operation point described in DTB inside resource.img.

Many things is different in LP Android than in KK but DVFS mechanism is directly supported by kernel and that wasn't changed so much. In my previouse post I described why the highest DDR frequency value isn't used in this ROM but it doesn't apply to GPU because DVFS mechanism for it is this time active inside kernel (even if it says otherwise ;]). With only two operation points in DTB for GPU yours overclockmatic config will cause that GPU always works with almost highest possible frequency (600 MHz) and quite high voltage (1.25V).

I prepared modified resource file with more operation points for GPU and SYS_STATUS_PERFORMANCE mode for memory. After I test it for some time I will release it here. Stay tuned .

Hello,

Can anyone confirm if you play a Higher bit rate, lets say a flac file with 24bit 96Khz...
This also will send true spdif in the same bit-rate.

Someone already tested it and off course it played the audio files like in Kitkat....But i hope it doesn't get down-sampled again to 44Khz like in KitKat..

Only interested what the receiver tells it receives true spdif, no hdmi or dac....
I use spdif to my receiver, and with my laptop it receives 24bit....But anyone here tested is with lollipop and the Ubox to a receiver..

I hope it will, and not only by using a dac with an Otg cable...

Thanks!

Me too no WiFi on my ubox, how come it works on 2.09?

I have the same problem with my ubox, wifi keeps going on /off/scanning/off/on and then it works and stops suddenly, I am back to 3.0.2 wifi works with no problem

[scorp76]

Yes this Wifi thing is really ....Iri...
I still use the last wasser KitKat rom and also with that version it keeps turning off.....What would not be that difficult....If only it kept the password....But goes off and you have to fill in the password, every time again...
Also with Lollipop?

Where people are having WiFi issues, is it solely under 2.4Ghz or 5ghz too?

[oskargumm]

I am loving the 3.0.4a on my tronsmart orion r28 but the remote does not work. I used RockChip_Batch_Tool_v1.8 to install it. I found http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showt...#entry47971385
it has 2 img files kernel and a resource file.
Can i use that to get my remote working ?

[torbvea]

I just flashed the modded resource and kernel Rusk posted with Android Tool, and the remote is working perfectly on my Tronsmart R28 Meta running Wasser 3.0.4a

My ubox has only 2.4 and I cannot stay connected, using Ethernet now.

It happens with both, here is a video showing what really happens, I have joined a log, except the Syslog app no other apps were installed.

So you aren't even getting the chance to connect to WiFi.

What is the status of Ethernet when this happens (On or Off)?

I can connect to wifi on both channels, but this happens I never know when it will work agains it's so random, Even when I reboot the Ubox it stills doesnt work, I try a 1/2hours later and it works, I don't use ethernet now, but when I checked it was on. I tried to turn off the same thing happens with wifi. the psu to this unit is 5v/2A , could it be a problem with the psu?

Hi Mackie
i had the same Problems with my UT3 and latest 3.0.4 from Ugoos and some other Roms,but until now on Wasser 3.0.4a the Wifi stays on.
My Problem is Stutters in Audio & Video with activated WIFI,without nothing.Hope they can fix it.

nice Day
