Hello,

i've signed up today and I want to say thank you for your great work supercelerons! You saved me a lot of time to get rid of some annoying things.

So far I can only report one minor bug. After every Reboot/Boot the message "no location access" ... "activate or close" is appearing.

I have one question:

Before I flashed the image I had installed TWRP v3.1.0.0 on my box already. But I was not able to make the USB Burning Tool recognizing my box properly. After I had installed the original recovery image through TWRP I was able to get the box recognized on USB Burning Tool. I don't know the reason. I would prefer to push the files over adb but adb does not recognize the box. Is there a way to get adb working? I guess I need a driver or sth. else!? So far I tried adb only under Linux. Maybe I should try adb on Windows?

Kind regards.

No need to hesitate. Maybe someone will find a more serious bug to make it more valueable to do the work.
Ah ok, I thought the adb problem is client side related. So twrp need a module/driver to support adb.

@bakayan:
How should anyone be able to help? "Dtv-app not work" is no description.
On my box dtv app is working.

[bakayan]

Everything works except the dtv app when I open it shut down I've tried different ways and failed and now does not work with stock rom either

Hi everyone,
ROM is great, all works correctly, DTV app too.

I have only a problem (same with the stock ROM) using the webcam C170 logitech: it seems to work, camera app OK but using Skype or hangout the call is video less...
Iìve tried to change USB port, webcam on/off without success
Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Install the ROM using sdcard system and I change the ethernet MAC BOX (MECOOL KIII PRO S912), why?
How can I restore my original MAC?
Thanks.
