This is what happens when mounting wasser: in console i can see data



now i switch to file manager and open same folder:


Very strange, network option in these browsers work BUT i rather mount the NAS as folder to the system

but ive been reading about kitkat being a arse on file permissions and stuff like that

In console you act as a root, in ES probably not.
What permitions your nas folder has?

hmmm, then it must be a CIFS problem, because with NFS there is not problem with my solution...

BUT if you will compile new kernels, maybe also compile one for old rev with "Connect to PC" at settings/USB set by default (or will be able to save the setting) because of ADB... (do you remember?)... this would be really nice... THX

Movies do not play back smoothly

On the new ROM movies will not play smoothly, are jammed and jumps

I had the same issue when reading MAC. But you should try to write MAC address. Select Manual checkbox in the top, below enter your static MAC address (format is without ":", e.g. "0800690201FC", NOT "08:00:69:02:01:FC") and press Write button. When MAC address is set you will be able to read it again without errors.

Thanks. Got it done.

And upon further inspection of the ROM, is the main data partition finally Internal+Media (apps+data) now or is it just me? It finally looks like files are being written and installed onto /storage/emulated/legacy/... by default. When I repartitioned the storage for the last build I put 4GB for apps and left ~2GB for data. Apps would installs to the 4GB partition and downloads and everything thats written to /sdcard/... went to that 2GB parition. Now data partition is being unused because I still see it in storage as "NAND Flash" with nothing written to it. If this is going to be the trend for future ROMs should we just drop the unused data partition and just shift everything to apps+data. I know this will require everyone to repartition their devices but it seems like this is the best option.

Thanks Wasser, firmware works very well.
My device: B351_v2.0 2013/09/22, wasser-firmware-kr42-new-1.0.3.
I have only one mini problem with stock IR remote. After first run, I go to desktop applications and IR remote doesn't work; left-right control. When I back and again go to desktop applications - control left-right work.

USB Bluetooth Dongle support

Hi all,

I was working on adding USB Blueooth dongle support to the K-R42 device.
It seems that I succeeded (at least it works for me) and want to share the solution. Please see attached file. The instructions are included in the Readme.txt file.

USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

PS: This works only with KitKat kernels!
PPS: This is ONLY for devices WITHOUT BT!

Does it work with every BT-Dongle and BT-Version?
Or do I need a special one?

This is generic driver, so it must work with many devices.
Tested with CSR (small chineese dongle) and BCM92045NMD Bluetooth 2.0 Module for HP.
