Re: UPDATED - CX919 - 4.2.2 - Finless ROM 1.6b

thank you, please let me know if any device, kernel and ROM combination creates a stable device for you. If anyone else has a suggestion,it would be great if you could share it.

I use 1.6b, with my own kernel, and I've had it running for several weeks without a restart. Videos have at most been playing about 8 consecutive hours. My CPU is set to scale to 1608, my RAM is at 667 Mhz and the GPU at 400 iirc.

Mind you I have not tried looping videos endlessly with this setup, but it is stable enough for me.

I have so far used 1.5 which worked fine and so doors 1.6b. I am about to start fiddling with kit kat roms now too, as son as I have produced a kernel that I am happy with.

That basically means set the GPU, CPU and RAM speeds to what my device can handle, and updated a few other things.

I hope kit kat roms will work fine, but I have so far not tested them myself.

Re: UPDATED - CX919 - 4.2.2 - Finless ROM 1.6b

Thank you for your help.

What I did last night was purchase a Neo X7. Reviews online support it's stability. If I'm not seeking 1080p support, and my only criteria was a box that plays videos endlessly without crashing does anyone have insight as to what box would be useful to try?

Thus far hardware progression has been Roku (sucked) --> GK 802 (stock ROM too slow) --> MK802 IV (finless1.5 - app malfunctions, still testing but worried about the poor wifi reception, even after antenna fix) --> CX-919 (finless 1.5 - walked in to a black screen and a unresponsive device)

Thank you,

Practically no. What you can do is try different roms and kernels and see if anything works better on your particular device. Also make sure it does not over heat and make sure your PSU can deliver or get one that can. Many PSUs that are delivered with the stick have been reported to be bad.

Re: UPDATED - CX919 - 4.2.2 - Finless ROM 1.6b

Hello,

I recently opened up the box on my new CX-919 running Android 4.2 and Finless 1.5.

The application I'm using it for requires that it stays always on and endlessly plays back videos from local storage.

I've been testing it for the last two days, it's been working fine, but then this morning I woke up to check on it and it was frozen on a black screen, unresponsive to mouse clicks.

It has a 2100mA Power Supply (out of the box).

Is there anything I can do to insure that the device doesn't freeze in the future?

Thank you for your help,

CX - 919 running Finless 1.5 freezing during local video playback, needs to be unplugged and replugged

Yup

I know...I'm just being picky.

Re: UPDATED - CX919 - 4.2.2 - Finless ROM 1.6b

I may end up installing another launcher. I would rather not for the reasons I mentioned before.

Thanks...Brad

Luckily, those are crap reasons

AW: UPDATED - CX919 - 4.2.2 - Finless ROM 1.6b

Hi Bob,

This is beyond my knowledge. Maybe someone who feels the need and knows how will give it a try and be willing to share.

BTW: Thank you so much for your hard work. It is very much appreciated! I've been watching your KitKat ROM thread as well. Looks like your a busy guy.

I wish I had more time to dedicate to this hobby. Learning more about this stuff would be fun and contributing more would be rewarding.

Brad

Why not just install apex, nova or adw launcher

To remove the search bar you need to know how to take apart an APK and recompile it. You remove it by editing .smali code in the launcher.apk

Logitech C270

Is there possibility to use microsoft lifecam hd-3000 via skype on cx-919?

I know that this does not directly answer your question but I am using a Logitech C270 and it works pretty well. I needed to power cycle after plugging it in to get it to work. If you don't already own the lifecam, this may be an option for you. If you do own the lifecam, you could always just plug it in and power cycle to try it out.

Remove Search Bar

Hi All,

Has anyone been able to remove the search bar from the top of the home page? I am hoping to not need to install a new launcher as the stock one works well except for the search bar. Installing a new launcher is a bummer because every time it gets an update, you need to set it as default launcher again. I know that I am being picky but I'm hoping that someone who understands how to do this mod has already done it. I've seen posts about editing xml files in the framework directory but I've also seen caution statements that get scary.

Thank You...Brad
