[lewy20041]

edit:
thx Bob.

[riversdirect]

Nice!

Looks very nice Lewy. I'm in the process of making a review of the X7 now. Its already awesome but this looks even better. I have the Logitech C525 webcam so that would be awesome to have it working. Anyway I would like to link users to this ROM will it be as easy to install as Bob's ROMs or the stock ROM?

Thanks,
Rivers from SomeCoolTech

[lewy20041]

as the stock
i found the webcam problem and its in the kernel of my device.
so no need to delay the relise for minix x7.
i to have c525, i checked if it work with minix kernel and its working 100%

XBMC advancedsettings.xml

I can't seem to find the advancedsettings.xml on the system after installing HFH XBMC Installer. I did a busybox find / -name advancedsettings.xml and nothing was returned. Am I doing something wrong? What settings need to go in this file? I also want to add my mySQL XBMC information in this file. I can copy my version but it obviously doesn't have the settings to resolve XBMC 1080p playback.

Also, once you HFH Settings\XBMC Installer, if you try to run it again you will get 'Unfortunately, Settings has stopped" and the settings window will be closed. I understand you should only run this once but I figured I should point out this error.

Regards,
-Darren

Since you are using the UT1 kernel...if I flash this ROM to my UT1, I shouldn't have to change the kernel first..... Is that correct?

I'm downloading your ROM right now, but it might be a couple of days before I can try it.

Thanks for the ROM. You put a lot of work into this one!!!!!!!!

I put together a ROM for the UT1...but I'm having trouble getting NAND to format/mount. Hopefully yours will work to fix that.

BlueTooth Share has stopped

Once the system boots I get two of these "Unfortunately, BlueTooth Share has stopped". Also, I can no longer link my PS3 Controller with Sixaxis because BT is not functioning.

Works nicely on my T428 with phjanderson's vsync-fixed and oc'd 1080p kernel. Video performance is on par with the latest nexus ROM.

A few little quirks: I'm also seeing these "Unfortunately, BlueTooth Share has stopped" messages after every reboot. Also selecting Settings->Sound->Volumes shows "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped" and exits to the home screen.

[lewy20041]

for that bluetooth problem.
delete /system/app/bluetooth.plus.apk
and post back if bluetooth is working without it.

rom link puled down for now.
im fixing it now.
