NEW - Finless ROM 2.0 - KitKat 4.4.2 for AP6210 wifi - BETA

[blinkone]

Blinky, fstab is now in boot.img in /sbin. Thus to mod it you have to build a new boot.img.

Here is the fstab in boot today.

# Android fstab file.
#<src> <mnt_point> <type> <mnt_flags and options> <fs_mgr_flags>
# The filesystem that contains the filesystem checker binary (typically /system) cannot
# specify MF_CHECK, and must come before any filesystems that do specify MF_CHECK
/dev/block/platform/emmc/by-name/system /system ext4 ro,noatime,nodiratime,noauto_da_alloc wait
/dev/block/platform/emmc/by-name/cache /cache ext4 noatime,nodiratime,nosuid,nodev,noauto_da_alloc,di scard wait

Ha ha ha Bob can you speak in English please..Are you saying I need to build a new image, I being me (Blinky) I think building a new image is way over my head."wink wink bob"

[Finless]

if I build you a new boot.img to swap internal and external sd, you willing to test it right now?

Sure Bob

[Finless]

Sure Bob

Here you go. I quickly tested it and it works.
warning!

You must have a SDcard in formatted Fat32 or the system will have no "NAND storage" and thus some APPs that expect it to be there all the time may now fail.

Let me know what you find and how it works fully.

The kernel guys have not yet successfully compiled from sources yet.

See in here for progress.

after upgrade to this rom I am expiriencing some video output problems
the screen is on and off

pls help

I experience the same using the stock 4.2 ROM that came with my unit

Switching HDMI to 720p instead of 1080p takes cares of the on / off video

Also, my Sony TV is more sensitive to the 1080p setting than a newer LG TV, in fact, I don't think I had this problem when I tried it on the LG TV ?

[orion23]

I flashed the new Finless 4.4 ROM on my GM282 (purchased from Geekbuying),and as with a few others on this thread,I have no wifi (or bluetooth).I have tried to reflash the updated factory 4.2 ROM from Geekbuying but it fails to flash.Reflashing the 4.4 kitkat is successful but still no wifi or bluetooth.Are the CX919 and CX919ll actually the same,as I thought the GM282 was a CX919ll.

I had some trouble going from 4.4 to the stock 4.2 rom

Make sure you get the firmware from here: (orange version ?)

When I tried this, my update failed 2X, but went through on the 3rd attempt

Thanks for your reply orion23.Your link is for the same firmware I have been using up until I flashed 4.4.I tried to reflash it without success,but I will try again.My gm282 has the orange antennae.Did you have a problem with wifi and bluetooth with 4.4?

Yes, I have the same GM282 with orange antenna's.
I tried the original BETA, 4.4, by tronsmart and the wifi was disabled, not working
went back to the stock 10321 ? I linked previously and got it working after a couple of tries.

I just cracked it open (the GM282 / CX-919II) and the wifi module is the AP6210....really don't get why the wifi doesn't work with these roms ?

[urq20v]

Orion23, thanks for the 4.2.2 reflash advice,it worked on the 3rd attempt. :-)

Bob to build a new boot.img for kitkat 4.4.2 do we have to follow the same steps that are used when building a boot.img in 4.2.2 ???
Thx
