Attention MK908 V3 people! MK908-android-4.2.2-jjhmod-UNIVERSAL-v2.01 Download

[hoabycsr]

well, I share with you guys my experience...

I tested stock power adapter with two roms: restart aprox. every 30 min.
Changed power adapter with a Samsung power adapter (5V, 2A - from Galaxy Tab 7.0), same roms: no restart - tested for 3 hours in each rom

For testing I used: Angry birds, 720p movie

Conclusion???

Stock adapter is crap!

Just streamed a 720p MKV TV Show from my XBMC using BubbleUPNP to my MK908 and it played for maybe 30 minutes with no problems. I then started the next episode but was kicked off the TV by my wife! I'd say that for TV Shows (40mins~) that the MK908 is able to cope. Anything longer and it goes to shit.

I played a h2:49M 1080P DTS copy of the hobbit without issues
don't use XBMC its not stable enough for use yet I us MXplayer pro + FFmpeg for the audio

I was using MX Player Pro with Arm v7 Codec. Assume what ever codec also runs the DTS for audio.
I haven't properly tested using MX Player direct from the MK908 - I stream via BubbleUPNP because it's so much easier selecting videos from my phone rather than using my phone as a mouse for the MK908 and navigating to the video and running it that way. Hope that makes sense.

Why everyone is having trouble on v3 hardware? I just replaced the heatsink and everything worked with any mk908 kernel.

Hi! - any particular ROM that you are using? Or are you using the stock ROM (updated 08/02) that came with the MK908?

Got any photos of the heatsink mod?

Thanks!

Do you have a link of the heatsinks you are using?

I have to mention it is freeze and reboot problems that is solved. The wifi is still average and i have some issues with the bluetooth, but with this new rom i didn't notice any problems.
I'll keep on testing.

Really good that you posted the links. Appreciate it. Thanks!

thanks for the links!

What did you use to attach the heatsinks to your ram?

[TheFonz]

Right, so I did some more testing.
I played a 1080P movie and it was playing back fine with no jumpiness. I think the issues started because the wifi couldn't keep up with the buffer. As I have said before I am streaming this via my XBMC UPNP Shares. So the process is like this MK908 (wifi) > Router > XBMC (lan) > Router > Server (lan) > Router > MK908 (wifi). It *could* be there are a lot of hops but over LAN it should be ok. I shall try and run direct from the server (so the process would be MK908 (wifi) > Router > Server (lan) > Router > MK908 (wifi)
I was able to fairly comfortably run a 720P movie without any issues. If there are any issues I think it's coming from BubbleUPNP. It's just so much easier to find a movie / TV show from my phone and initiate the stream that way rather than navigate directly (via SMB shares) on the MK908 with my phone using DroidMote.

there is absolutely no need for ram sinks on these devices even at 800Mhz @ 1.4V

This is my first post

Reporting Universal Rom

My stick is a V3 and it came with a 1.5A adapter. Running from it with no problems

Wifi works great, video is great, played emlators and Hd games like a champ usaing a PS3 controller via bluetooth.

Already modified the heatsink but also worked great without Mod.

And the most incredible, I've been hitting 13000+ on Antutu. (last test showed 12800+ after heatsink mod).

This is the first rom I test, I will try is this stick can support V1 roms as other user has reported.

Hoabycsr, thanks a lot for your roms, also wanna thank the rest for the kernels and fixes.

I will try to scan my stick so you can analyze the ICs to see is there is any difference between v3 boards.
