T-R42 custom firmware by wasser

The 1080p boot and kernel is actually 720p upscaled to fit on 1080p screen. You can tell because the icons and text are very large. Load the 720p kernel and you will notice the icons are much much smaller at a DPI of 160.

My text and icons don't look large to me...
Well I'll Flash boot+kernel 720p and see.
Can I still change the dpi in build.prop like I used to do?

Yes. You can still change the DPI in build.prop to make the 1080p icons and text larger. There are many apps from the app store which will do that.

Ok, now I'm not able to boot any wasser anymore.
Flashed 1.2.1 1080p (which seems to be 720P) => alble to boot while pulling the power plug. Then flashed 1.2.1 720p (which seems to be 1080P). Able to start two or three times, then no boot possible anymore. Pulling the power plug, waiting, trying again and again.no start. Back to stock, that works.
Now to 1.2.1 720P again => a few boots possible then no more boot
Back to stock => ok.
Now to 1.2 => no boot whatever I try.
Back to stock => ok.

So seems I can't Flash and boot any wasser rom.
Anyone knows a solution?
Should I reformat sdcard?

I thougt IT is possible to reach cwm holding reset and poweron? That doesn"t work for me either anymore.
Help?
Anyony who can help me?

Wasser,

In the 1.2.1 rom, the 1080p and 720p kernels and boot are reversed. 1080p is actually 720p and 720p is actually 1080p. Also, would you please upload a overclocked kernel like 1.8ghz cpu, ddr memory 667mhz and gpu 600mhz identical to the 1.2.1 kernel? Outside that, the rom is amazing!

Thanks again for your hard work!

Having an overclocked kernel as an option would be cool. Or the option to overclock it if we want as you can do with cyanogenmod and other ROMs (on other devices) if the kernel allows overclocking.

hi gerry1980,

i uploaded new kernel with 1366x768-60p support, i tested this kernel with the samsung SynMaster BX2240. The 1366x768 resolution works fine for me with this monitor.

Could you please download and try again?

thanks

Hello wasser,

Thank you very much !

I tried it, and I'm sure that the resolution will work on most displays
as it does on my TV, too.
Unfortunately it doesn't work with the Motorola Lapdock.
And that confirms my assumption that the lapdock EDID
act somewhat strange in combination with the hdmi_edid_***
driver stuff.

I ordered an adapter to connect that stupid Lapdock display with my x86 machine.
As soon as the adapter arrives I can read and analize the EDID data.
Furthermore I added some dprintk lines in fbmon.c but I hadn't enough time for further
investigations and I'm still on it...

Cya.

Hi Wasser,

The nfs kernel modules not working for me. I tried to do insmod for all the kernel modules you provided but keep getting insmod:init_module failed (No such file or directory). All the kernel modules were present in /system/lib/modules directory and given the correct/proper permission. The No such file or directory message returned seems misleading. It seems like it is failing in the init_module method. Any ideas why it is failing? Compatibility issue?

Thanks

could you please report the minix's problem to my other thread?

thanks

Wasser, if you would upload, 1080p overclocked kernels would be much appreciated.

Thanks!!

Hi Waseser,

Overclocked kernels would be a welcome addition to this great rom!

Re: T-R42 custom firmware by wasser

Hi

When I playing some avi or mkv file at MXplayer or Diceplayer with external codec, the player shows very slow frame rate. However when I moving my mouse and mouse cussor shows on screen, then the player shows good frame rate until disapear cussor. Does it have solutions?

Thank you for your time.

16 bit color depth

Hi all.
Could smb explain what depth of color does out player have? It seems like 16 bit. it's easy to see on android setting background. there's no smooth..
How to change to 32 bit?
2. Updated to t-r42-wasser-1.2.1 firmware. How to get NAND flash visible as sdcard? May be that is because userdata partition hasn't been written by ROM_Flash_Tool_137.exe ?
Thanks
