New Beta Lollipop Firmware from Rikomagic - September 2015

[fl0w]

I've a RKM V5.
Unpacked stock rom with imgRePackerRK_105 (ROM MK902II 5.1 RKM 20151016).
Overwrite rk3288box-3.10-uboot.parameter in dump directory of extracted ROM.
Place file RK3288Loader_uboot_V2.17.02 in same directory.
In "package-file" modified line of bootloader in "bootloader RK3288Loader_uboot_V2.17.02.bin".
Repacked.

So i get stock rom with 4Gb of apps space.
Many Tks again.

Thanks arcobelino! I flashed my RKM V5, everything works smoothly. Can you give some instructions on how to root this version?
Cheers!

Download the package, extract, put stick in flash mode and run rkandroid tool to flash twrp recovery, reboot, enable usb connection, usb debugging, and from adb, reboot recovery, then flash supersu zip and reboot.

Well done, let me know how the rom works for you.

I use Nemode's ROM in CR12, The ROM is smooth.

Wifi/Bluetooth/Ethernet is work.

Kodi 15/15.1/15.2 is crashed while move the forawrd backward bar, anybody notice that?

Everything works with pergus reboot app once you install oma root. even recovery. the mouse only worked for me in slot beside the antenna. Seems root now fixed to work ok on neomode rom. Kodi sharp chrisp video some stops and dropped frames and seems a pause bug present as it does it internit. video pauses and starts maybe 3 times in a show or movie but it is there. i try setting cpu to different settings now that root installed and keyboard no lag or skips if ota port used.

I just recieve a mail from Rikomagic,
The final version of the stock android 5.1 will be ready soon, they are testing it and will release a final stable !!!

[Zahir]

abush, yes, I've been testing a limited release of that and it's very good. My sample wasn't rooted, however and had only 1 gb of app space.

please Explain to me what do you all mean by 1 gb 4 gb and so on.....

[Zahir]

Total system memory is usually partitioned to allocate space to 1) apps and 2) storage (or Nand). If the space allocated for apps isn't large enough, that limits the number you can install. A good allocation is between 2gb and 4gb depending on whether your total memory is 8gb or 16gb.

Some firmware makes all your system memory available for apps (unified storage) which can be very convenient.

You can change how much space your firmware allocates for installing apps with a "parameter" file that you flash along with other elements of the firmware. This can even be done post-facto - i.e. after you've installed the firmware itself.

Zahir , thanks for the extreme effort and patience....
just wondering if what is needed to flash it on my beelink R89?
i mean can you provide the needed files to flash?(remote control and heat issue are my main concerns , of course aside from the spdif passthrough support)
blessings....

[Zahir]

gridlock, what rom are you currently running on your R89? What have you tried so far?

I'd be pleased to help you find one that suits but since I don't have that box, we'd have to experiment a bit. The V5 doesn't have spdif out, so you'd be better off trying Neomode's rom or the latest Rikomagic 902II Beta, These should offer the basics - wireless ac, relatively cooler running (compared to Wasser or stock), spdif.

The RKM Beta is here, together with my modified parameter file for 2gb app space.

Flash with Android Tool.

To get the Beelink remote working, first copy the "remote.conf" file found in system/etc on a stock Beelink rom to somewhere on your pc. Transfer that copy to the same folder on the new rom, reboot and it should work. However, you might have to power on manually from a complete shutdown as power requires an IR signal. Suspend might work though. Use a root explorer for the transfer, or ES File Manager after turning on root under "Tools".

As I said, not having a Beelink box limits what I can say with certainty since I can't test suggestions myself.

[gridlock]

wow.... so impressed zahir.
i truly appreciate your help....

[gridlock]

i'm using wasser's LP rom and the power off using any power-off app works just fine.... so do you think unpacking the resouce.img from it and flashing it after flashing the rkm rom would do the trick ?
thanks in advance bro....
