Please help me to identify firmware

Hello,

Recently I bought this Android box from eBay but unfortunately it does not work very well.

Google apps (Google Play, Gmail, etc.) are missing and USB ports work only with mice and keyboards. USB memory sticks cannot be mounted and recognized as well.

However, SD card slot works OK so I got an idea to re-flash firmware.

Can you please suggest me which one?

Device info says this:

Brand: softwinners

Model: SoftwinerEvb

OS: 4.2.2

CPU Model: Dual-Core ARMv7; Processor (VFPv4, NEON)

GPU Renderer: Mali-400 MP

Kernel Version: 3.3.0 zhoujiequean@zhoujiequan-desktop#7 Fri Jun 28 21:26:43 CST 2013

Subversion: sugar_tianxing-eng 4.2.2 JDQ39 20130711 test-keys

According to information from this thread, I suppose that Justop firmware should be OK (box/device looks like this one from the picture posted on the beginning of this thread.

Tnx in advance!

Keedox Android Smart TV Box

I bought an Keedox Android Smart Tv box from amazon

I think is very similar to yours

take a look

I had an issue, so I contacted the seller asking for the firmware and I got this information

"This is the website for update. There are two links there, if the first one cannot work, please choose the alternative one in the bracket. Thank you. Hope this can help you solve this problem. marcmart.com/download/E/ED037/ED037-PhoenixCard_V3.09.rar

The alternative dropbox.com/s/x18oslbg4yxiezy/ED037-PhoenixCard_V3.09.rar

If you found it is a little choppy and slow to watch XBMC, please try to update the A10 firmware with the following link. If the first link cannot work, please choose the alternative one in the bracket：marcmart.com/ebay/e/ED037/A065-A10-D+ROOT+XBMC.img

The alternative:

dropbox.com/s/zqsy405gkhgpe1g/A065-A10-D%2BROOT%2BXBMC.img "

the first link is for the software to burn your SD and the second one is the firmware.

For me it worked very well. :cool:

Hello all,

Ok this may seem a bit long, so I apologize in advance. I have been at this for a week and haven't been able to find a fix. I don't use my camera much so I am not sure when the problem started but I was running LiquidSmooth on my s3 and one fine day I get this error when I start the camera app, "Camera Error : Cant connect to camera" . I started restarting, clearing cache, no luck. So I restored stock ROM through Odin, and strangely the error still persists. Only difference is on a stock rom it shows up as "Warning: Camera failed". I searcehd xda and other sites and found other people having similar problems, but there is no guaranteed fix to this.

One possible fix is described here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2006128 . I tried this but when I try to check my firmware version using the dialer code, i get an error " Factory test has stopped"

There are a number of other suggestions that U tried as well, some of them include finding the correct "SLIM_ISP.bin file and placing them on your /root folder, but so far no luck. I also have a spare camera module that I swapped but the damn thing still won't work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] waiters:
Look a few posts down. Might be your bootloader.

There is another thread.. Think in development regarding bootloaders with flashable zip files.

Good luck
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] spasch:
I updated my bootloader and modem before the rom. That broke the camera for me. Updating the rom to 4.1.2 fixed it for me. Make sure your bootloader matches your rom.

If you are running a 4.1.1 rom with the mg2 4.1.2 bootloader cam gets borked. There's an app that will tell you what bootloader you have. Vice versa I believe. Running the lk3 4.1.1 bootloaders on a 4.1.2 cam will bork.

Flash the new intergalactic rc5 a few pages back from last post and let me know if the cam starts working... Wipe dalvic ect after flash. Also get root checker from market and make sure your on mg2bootloader just to make sure it's not only the mg2 modem
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] avishek_32:
Tried that , doesnt work, also i verified that the bootloader is mg2. I did a little more digging , if you go to /root/sys/class/camera/rear, you can see the firmware for the rear camera, mine only shows up as (null) (null), no matter which ROM or bootloader I install. The front cam firmware shows up fine. Dont know if that will help you guys identify the problem, just thought I would mention it. Any other suggestions?

Camera not connected

Weird, after having a lot of problems when I flashed the official I9300XXUGMK6 Official Samsung ROM JB 4.3 the phone any more could register to the net, looked and looked every where and many solutions appeared, I was afraid to apply some of them but then hierarchy666 suggested to apply the Ultima v 15 ROM and the patch for that version, did so but selecting the xxemh1 modem and the speedmod kernel , and yes it did work, my phone was alive again , but then I tried to take some photos and my camera presented the Camera not connected error.

So I reinstalled the ROM and patched etc etc etc and still I´m presenting the problem, then I decided to try the same Samsung Kernel included in the Ultima Titan ROM and after rebooting I had camera but no registered to the net, kind of weird and think something is missing or corrupted .

Any idea

Regards

Ultima ROM seems to be great and if it could work 100 % could be the best ROM to try.

Hey Avishek were you able to fix your camera problem... I have the exact same problem as yours and the can rear fw shows null null in my case too...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] K0ns0ul:
For all those who are having problems with CM or in my case even Gummy not being able to connect to camera. After scowering for 3 hours the internet I have finally fixed my problem. What I did was to flash CM and Gapps, making sure to wipe cache even before installing Gapps after CM. But this time instead of running camera straight off, I went into the file browser with root access. Navigated to my /system/cameradata folder and immediatlely 777 all the Slims.bin's..My camera now works like a charm! (for now)..

I noticed that when trying to change permissions after running camera for the first time, there were some .bin's that had different permissions than others (on some of them I didn't have to check as many permission options). When I went in before running it, any x or r were completely blocked, so I did my 777 and now all works correctly. I hope this helps anyone having this frustrating problem! I did NOT want to go back to stock rom, copy files, re-flash CM, paste files..or some other fixes that were out there..

Good Luck! (I hope this is in the proper area, I don't usually post in forums so forgive me if it is)..LOVE XDA! Has helped me solve countless problems!

Yes your not using xda to root. I suggest sticking with xda to root and flsh rom's and kernel's.

[HTC Sensation] luxi4r:
I have a HTC Sensation with ViperS installed. I was playing around with the CPU settings in the "Venom Tweaks" app, now I can't boot to the OS. When I power on, the ViperS boot animation plays, then the screen becomes black for a second and the device restarts (boot loop). I tried factory resetting, restoring a backup using CWM, and installing a new OS. The new OS's boot animation always appears, then the device restarts.

Is there a way to change CPU settings without having to boot up the OS?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
when you press to install vipers it has an option through aroma installer to adjust cpu and gpu settings

also before changing rom perform a full wipe

also you can do this

switch on the device and when you will go to the splash screen press and hold volume down until it gets you to the safe mode

then from there go to venom tweaks and change cpu freq
[HTC Sensation] luxi4r:
Where can I find Full Wipe or SuperWipe for HTC Sensation? The link on the ARHD page is broken.

I tried holding down, but safe mode doesn't start.

I'm redownloading ViperS, I see if it works.

Meanwhile, is there a zip file that I can install using CWM to change CPU settings?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
cwm recovery has an option for full wipe

i think there is a mod for cpu freq but give me some time to search it

i will come with edit

edit:i found it but it works only for sebastianFM's kernel and PYD-X kernel

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1866127

also if you flashed viperS jb 3.1.1 rom then forget that mod
[HTC Sensation] luxi4r:
I installed ViperS several times with different settings, it still doesn't work.

Now, when I go into the bootloader, it says "Battery voltage is too low! Please change a battery...". Does this actually mean my battery is dying? Or is something still wrong with the CPU?
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
Are you sure it is "change battery" and not "charge battery"? It seems quite unlikely for it to tell you to change your battery. Also, did you try another ROM (not ViperS)? Maybe you aren't S-Off and need to flash the kernel manually? (And that's why the CPU settings are kept)
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
charge your battery and post your bootloader details

I'm using an AT&T compatible Straight Talk sim. Works perfect on TW based roms - no problems. However I have flashed both cyanogenmod 10.1 and liquidsmooth and do not receive calls.

i have a samsung gt p3100 rooted, still on ICS. i've tried the cyanogenmod 10.1.2, it works okey, but i get a distorted screen before the cyanogenmod animation appears.

how do we fix this?

do i need to flash a jb bootloader after flashing cyanogenmod based on jellybean? or can i just leave my ics bootloader untouched? will that solved issues about the bootscreen being distorted?

just a follow up, if i flash a jb bootloader, will that still work if i switch back to stock ics?

thanks

Bootloader is not divided like ics or jb that is device specific so dont touch bootloader.. try other things..

There is no bootloader in Samsung devices. I think your problem is kernel-related.

[Galaxy Ace II General] michalrus:
Hi,

Jelly Bean has multi-user support, but it is turned off for phones by default. There are situations, though, when you might want it (e.g. I share my phone with a tester sometimes, it would be nice if he had his own environment). Because I want to share it with another dev, I'm going to enable developer options, too, which are disabled for other (restricted) users. Stay calm, though, this is safe: all not safe developer options are greyed out for a restricted (non-owner) user. :) (At least on CM 10.1.)

How to enable multiple phone users.

`adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk`,

decompile it with apktool,

edit framework-res/res/values/integers.xml changing config_multiuserMaximumUsers from 1 to, say, 8,

compile new .apk with apktool,

using 7-Zip replace resources.arsc in original .apk with resources.arsc from new .apk,

`adb push` modified original .apk from 7-Zip.

Some remarks:

I've just finished trying to position user switcher view on our portrait lock screen and failed; the display is just too small for me to come up with something creative; besides from no screen real estate for it, the switcher works great ;) -- you can check that in landscape after enabling lock screen rotation (if you still want to try to add switcher to portrait lockscreen, take a look at framework-res/res/layout-port/keyguard_host_view.xml and compare it with analogous layout-land (the latter includes "@layout/keyguard_multi_user_selector"),

Enable user switching in power menu settings [Settings -> System -> Power menu -> User switcher] (you've got to switch somehow now without screen lock switcher!),

Adjust Superuser rights for other users [Settings -> Superuser -> [menu key] -> Settings].

How to enable "Developer options" in secondary (restricted) users.

(You should be able to do this with any other ROM, just remember to *increment* array length of SETTINGS_FOR_RESTRICTED, not blindly copy my 0x1b value. See original Settings.java for reference).

Pull and decompile /system/app/Settings.apk (you will need to do `apktool if framework-res.apk` first for decompilation to succeed).

Change Settings/smali/com/android/settings/Settings.smali as follows:

change SETTINGS_FOR_RESTRICTED array length from 0x1a (26 dec) to 0x1b (27 dec):

.line 103
const/16 v0, 0x1a

to:

.line 103
const/16 v0, 0x1b

Append development_settings id (found in Settings/smali/com/android/settings/R$id.smali):

0x5et 0x2t 0xdt 0x7ft

to allowed SETTINGS_FOR_RESTRICTED array data below:

.line 103
:array_0
.array-data 0x4

.

recompile,

using 7-Zip, copy /classes.dex from just compiled System.apk to original System.apk,

`adb push` your modified original version from 7-Zip.

Works for me. :)

Greetings,

Michał.

[Shield Q&A] JKmike07:
Hey guys I wanted to run something by everyone here. I think my Shield as well as most others performance drops by about 50% after the device goes through a sleep cycle.

I can turn on the device and run benchmarks non stop and get constant 18k-19k scores. As soon as the device goes to sleep and wakes up it cuts down to 10k-11k and things load noticeably slower as well as the frame rate getting cut in half. This issue can also show up in other programs and benchmarks.

I figured you guys would be interested in my findings. I will post my 2 YouTube videos plus the Nvidia forum link below.

Any ideas what would cause this or what might fix it?

This first video is a quicker one comparing 2 devices.
