Ugoos UT1 - wasser firmware - JB Android 4.2.2

[wasser]

Really? Is that the way it is meant to be with these TV boxes? When I first got the unit it worked on the (horrible) stock ROM. It also seemed to work with the Riley ROM when I installed that. I admit, though, that I didn't try to watch a full movie off the hard drive or anything..

the problem is that the tv box (with stock power supply) cannot provide enough power for the hdd. I don't think it's issue in the firmware!

Great firmware but i have a problem whith TV-OUT.It work fine only when i have HDMI cable in my unit (Ugoos UT1).If i remove the HDMI cable and i have only the TV-out cable in the unit, image is buggy, the boot animation is not show in the center of the screen is split in 2 and when is boot completly ,the mouse movement is fragmented device is extremely laggy.With HDMI cable inserted everything work fine AV Out to.I need the TV out function to work properly.Can you do something about it please?Thank you.

HI,

it's great if you could try the new kernel and see if the tvout is fixed!

feedback is very important for me!

thanks

could you please give more infos?

- which player do you use?
- did you play movie from hdd or over network?
- is the freeze alway reproduceable by streaming 1080p?

it sounds strange for me, because 1080p movie plays smooth and no freeze on k-r42 with 1.2.4 firmware. The hardware is the same

thanks

ok when running your rom and the combo's of kernels I couldn't get the audio and video to sync there were minor freezes.

I am just using XBMC and all movies were streamed. and yes the freezes are consistent, I tried dallas buyers club, enders game, best man holidays all froze up

I am currently running the finless 1.6 and riley kernel 1.1 audio is now sync'ed but 1080P video freezes up but audio continues

which version of xbmc are you using

in my opinion it's problem in xbmc. I uses mxplayer to play my 1080p movies. it works perfectly for me. Could you please try mxplayer and see if it works for you?

thanks

Archos Player is another good alternative to MX Player and has nice covers and SMB/UPNP support.

Strange tho Wasser, If this is the same hardware as the K-R42 then your 1.2.3 rom over there is perfect for me with 1080p. In fact it is the best version out of all the hardware I have. I wonder why it is different here?

[lokster]

im new to this I will download MX player but all videos I was playing were from XBMC Theresa unit here in the states that plays 1080P in xbmc perfectly I was just tring to get this working

1 you can use flashtool included in the zip file. Please select only kernel in the flashtool!

2 install terminal app from google store and follow these steps

- lauch terminal
- su -
- mount -o remount,rw /system
- cp Generic.kl /system/usr/keylayout/

the zip containing the kernel (page 3) doesnt have a flashtool. if i try to select kernel.img in the RKBatchTool it says "Load Firmware failed!"

so, i flashed k-r42-old_revision-wasser-1.2.4.img with RKBatchTool, then i flashed *only" the kernel.img with ROM_Flash_Tool_137. with this setup, ethernet is not working, so something in the flashing process is still going wrong. im not sure why this is so hard....

also, managed to copy Generic.kl and rkxx-remotectl.kl to /system/usr/keylayout/ but the remote control app still cannot find the device... :/
