using recovery

@lewy - it would be great if you create zip version of new software for flashing in recovery mode!

im thinking of an app that will update some parts of the firmware (kernel, apps, etc) without the need for me to upload whole firmware every time.
lets say i will name it "HFW Updater" what you think?;p

i allready added an option in Settings>Advenced>Activate Gaming Mode
whic will use 480p kernel its gave like 80% performance boost for 3D Games
and will provide best gameing expirience in lower res.
greate for older tv and for thouse who dont need HD ant care about gameplay

"HFW Updater" - YEP! good idea!

Great Job!!!
I tested 2.0.3 on 1080p kernel with Need For Speed - its different game (my old fw
was 1.2.0)

So thanks lewy20041 and wasser!!!!
tv out+480p - its best idea for old tvs

install-recovery.sh

Hello Lewy20041,

I just Loaded the 2.0.4 version of the Firmware and I can NOT find
the install-recovery.sh file it does NOT exist in the /etc/install-recovery.sh location any more.

Where did You move it to ... I need to Add My Network Mounts to it ... ???

I went back and Loaded 2.0.3 and it correctly has the install-recovery.sh file ...
All works fine on the 2.0.3 ... but this file is missing from 2.0.4 ...

thanks In advance ..

Michael T.

Remote from Smartphone

Hi, thanks for all your support.

Does this ROM still have support for remote control?

Which app do I need to load on my phone?

Thanks again for all your hard work.

Hi, not sure if you have problems with your remote, just installed v2.0.3 hw:CS918
The remote control is no longer working, I also have problems with audio (sounds choppy).
Latest XBMC nightly build still has a lot of frames drops in 1080p.

Thanks for all your hard work Lewy
