T428 Study and Research on Experimental Firmwares

[phjanderson]

why Rikomagic share and rockchip no ?

should be rockchip to share and solve. i don't understand nothing about the policy of this rochchip devices.

really is a strange story.

Your previous advice was: don't buy rockchips.

Perhaps time for a new advice: don't buy rockchips, but it you really have to then buy them from Rikomagic!

Thanks Rikomagic! My RK3066 was a rikomagic, my apologies that I bought a tronsmart RK3188 this time, I won't do it again!!!

the post for you is this:

new kernel + stock repack and c210 work + solved video problem

"well with this kernel <DELETED>

+ stock repack <DELETED>

webcam c210 shold work and video problem not present

good skype to all.

personally only for skype or google video chat i prefer my phone or tablet. is more discreet "

i posted another kernel after the first. look this have different rar name

I tried that combo. As I said it sound works on the stock repack + test kernel but not on the Nexus rom + test kernel. Any chance to get it working on the nexus rom? That would mean webcam + smooth video

The Measy U4b is another eom of the Tronsmart T428. I have been flashing Strauzo, finless and stock T428 ROMs onto my U4B for a month now.

i have just seen this official ROM released which claims to fix the BT airMouse problem. http://blog.geekbuying.com/index.php...box/measy-u4b/

im on holiday currently so cannot test. Would love to know if it does fix BT input. We then need to add together the various pieces of the puzzle to make a great ROM. No video skipping, BT working, scalable and 'clean'. Add fully working hardware XBMC and I'd be very happy indeed.

It does seem these sticks will be fully usable
[edit] there is a rooted / de-chinesed version here http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum/...ware-20130718/

It is in the ROM not the kernel but is a compiled LIB file. I have YET to figure out how to make that work when using a tablet ROM and trust me I have spent a bit of time on it.

maybee this wil Work http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1...-in-jelly-bean dont know how to do this

I know this modification and this don't cause problems. But this file was modified also in other parts in the chinese stock rom and contain errors, because the same compiled lib create problems also to the central button of droidmote. (That work well in all other rom of the universe and also in Nexus and all rk3188 tablets)

For this reason i restore the compiled library to the original JB version.

We don't have the rockchip sdk to compile and for this reason we must use the precompiled original library that don't have the right to back mouse button swap

Rockchip if you read take note. Correct this shit problem.

Awesome to see some stuff happening with the t428 since summer started haven't had much time to do anything with it. Is Strauzo version of the firmware 1080p?

Thanks

Would work well with multi-window on a true 1080p kernel Thanks !

Would work well with multi-window on a true 1080p kernel Thanks !

there isn't any differences from a 720p kernel and a 1080p kernel.

1080p kernel server only to lose power.

if all is developed well, (but is not so on rk3188 devices), the android devices also if have ui at 720p, when read a 1080p video, output it at 1080p to the tv.

because the android device know via edid informations that your tv is 1080p cabable.

all android devices work in this way. But we have chinese android. as i say in other posts. but i can try to do all my best on this devices.

is very difficult without the source code of Android, but we already have good results with the nexus rom.

hdmi scaling and zoom in settings, are only a chinese invention that i see as a bad workaround, that create many problems.

if you do not believe me, get a good tablet, i suggest the new nexus 7 that finally have the hdmi output and test.

Thanks for the attention

I have tried this and tested it. I have a Xperia Z Tablet, Xperia Z phone, UG007B with 1080p kernel (but stutter), GK802 and multiple other devices, so I know what we (as a community as it's not just me) are asking for.

1080p Android UI would make sense for multi-window as you have 2073600 pixels vs 921600 on 720p, ie double the drawing area.
Whilst the chinese firmware is not correct, it is possible as shown in other kernels / roms, to provide a 1080p Android UI, with minimal loss of 'power'. I lost 1000 points on Antutu between 1080p and 720p, which is a 5% decrease in overall power, but the 1080p is well worth the sacrifice.

Unless the stutter fix you have doesn't work at 1080p ??

WELL I HAVE MUTI WINDOWS ON MY T428

Wifi work
Bluetooth work
Video ok

we can have a new multi-windows rom in two days

do you want it ? or is not necessary ?

or you want to wait a year for sdk 2 official rom from rockchip and maybe another year for multi-windows ?

but multi-windows on android hdmi stick not will be sure in the next year i think because rockchip not release this feature for android hdmi stick

For all:

I know what I do and what I say. trust me. I know very well that my behavior is sometimes not correct, but this is needed for things that you do not know and because i'm extremely contrary to the policies of rockchip.

But believe me I am very sorry about this because I love this community
and especially because I have respect for BOB finless that is a very kind person and the best developer on android hdmi sticks.

But i hate Rockchip because it made me hurt

Take everything I produce, if it is necessary for you, without judging my behavior. Thanks

Understandable to me. I just want the sticks to work right and rockchip is doing very little to help good people like you.

Nexus SDK2 Multi-Windows

Please try also Netflix on this rom

you must active the multi-windows in the settings.

To have real multitouch gestures on an android hdmi stick. you need or an hardware multitouch touchpad or you can use DroidMote that simulate one with your phone.
i tested the multi-windows with DroidMote and it work very very well.

to use the multi-windows, you must know where you touch and with DroidMote you can.

to activate the gray windows, pinch in the bottom border of the windows with two fingers like in this video. And then you can move and enlarge the windows on the screen.
