HPH NT-V8 RK3368 Marshmallow ROM by mo123

Maybe it's really not hardware related, but I believe it CAN still be fixed by some firmware tweaks, just as it was done for 1.4/1.5/1.6

[Shomari]

That's kind of the point ... if it isn't hardware related, it's software (firmware) related.

Any compelling reason to upgrade to MM over LL, though? The MM firmwares are still under optimized, this is the best one out by far of all the Mm as far as I can tell, but it still falls pretty short of LL performance wise.

[Andro_James]

I just thought that since it has such a high antutu score, it should work much smoother and it is somewhat true, because the overall response time and performance is really great. The only issue is YT freezes

Right on. What score do you get on your device?

You can try the solution I posted for Youtube in the OP to fix the problem.
Get a cheap 8/16GB MicroSD card to use for it.
I played Youtube for 1 1/2 hours and didn't notice any problems.
The next update will include some more improvements, maybe Youtube will work better then by itself for some users.

Also try disabling 'Media storage' system app in Android Settings to improve audio playback and reduce dropped frames.
Can also use this app.

People that report Youtube problems are mostly from Russia or use non HPH, Ugoos RK3368 devices.
There might also be 3rd party apps installed by these users like torrenting, torrentstream or ES File Explorer, apps that run services in the background.
These apps must be removed for better performance.

...that's my score with my current 5.1 LL firmware. Biggest difference is in ram and i/o throughput compared to MM, which does not match that performance, yet.

Here's what I get with this MM build:

Hi Mo ,

i flashed your MM Rom on my UT4 / 30 Minutes ago and until now all looks good even the Fan runs.Only the Translations to German are not always really perfect , but that i think is because you used

maybe GOOGLE for it.

If you want i can help with next Versions to make it better ???

I tested only a few minutes Audio & Video until now but all looks good , can not say anything about 5.1 and all this things because i dont have it.

Later i install my Apps and report all Bugs that i found.

Good Work go further

have a nice Day

mo123's firmware is intended for Nagrace and Ugoos devices, but this MM firmware seems to have broad compatibility.

It ran excellent on my super cheap generic 'Z4' test box, it's the only MM build that runs on my box at all, even.

Hi

I send you a message to help with the translations.

NTMC and Kodi 17 64-bit works good.

You can also test Youtube, remember to disable 'auto update' for the Youtube app in Google Play Store so it doesn't update to the non ad-free version.
Does it also play smooth or do you get the same problem as a few users that saw video freeze while audio still play or audio stops and only video plays?

for me after tested not have youtube problem on zidoo x6 and i found any major issue ,just impossible to stop box with remote .

Yes, unfortunately the Zidoo remote is not supported.
You can use an airmouse or try the Quick Reboot app from the Play Store to see if it helps.

Hi Mo ,

until now i had not much time to test , but i will begin soon.You already send me this Tool , i can not use it because i am not online with my Pc.

But no Panic the most Translations are the same as 5.1 i still have them and add the Rest to this files with Screenshots and txt.files.

I am sure i have translated HPH Launcher strings from 5.1.Later more.


nice Day

Hi Mo once more ,

I can report that the "PowerOff" Button in the NavBar does not work on my UT4.My AirMouse "PowerOff" works , Reboot too , i can not use my favorite "Rootexplorer" it always stops working.

Maybe the APK supports not the MM API ??? or somthing else ?

Looks like there are Problems with the "mnt"media_rw" Folder , can not reach the connected Devices over it , only over "storage" it works.I looked into the "permission.xml" File there is only one

Permission for "WRITE MEDIA STORAGE", not two more like in KK or LP. Will the SDcard Fix App from Playstore help ??? (tested with MIExpl. & EZFileExp.)

I really missed the Function to hide the "NAVBar" not only "StatusBAR".

i already deleted the "Bootanimation.zip" because i like the "ANDROID" Bootscreen , but the "Nagrace" still exist but i have a UT4 . Can it be deleted ??? or changed ??? by a Tool ???

Mo remember i only have 3G Wifi Router with a 5GB Dataplan i can not test all Things in the same Way like others.

Its late and i have to do a break

nice Day
