Great job!

2M, ok.

720p or 1080p?

Tks.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] EQUANCY:
I think 720p based firmware, however you can set output to 1080p with no problem, but I guess screen resolution remains 1280*800 or so.

Other things are well better than original firmware, faster internet and smooth 1080p mkv playing, at least I haven't seen any problem.

This is only rootet firmware for CS968 at moment, I think?

I've uploaded Antutu results on first post.

First custom Rom was at freaktab since 23/10

[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] Meta-l:
Good job but Is it possible to take into account in future versions of the problem associated with the problem of dropped frames during playback is hd video with a frequency of 24hz?
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] EQUANCY:
I didn't said this is the first custom rom, I said :

"This is only rooted firmware for CS968 at moment, I think?"

Because there wasn't any information on the rom page about root and I also seen myself after flashing the rom wasn't rooted, atleast it isn't worked for me.

I hope you understand this time.

And for the record:

This is a soft-modded rom, none of system files except superuser (su, supersu.apk, busybox) and buildprob has been

touched

, because of that the other modification or remake or re-edit is different than this rom.

For your consideration.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] EQUANCY:
Actually it is very hard to answer that question.

I think, Frame dropping is a problem that happens while optimisation between GPU and CPU.

Meaning of optimisation is about decoding:

For our android devices there are a few custom HW decoders on the market (MX, Vitamio etc) and not all of them have been wroten for each SOC, and each manufacturer has sometimes different ways to decode multi media data.

I mean, Hardware based video decoding needs more optimisation for the synchronisation between CPU and GPU, also needs well compatible drivers too.

Because for arm based devices, HW decoding needs CPU manipulation, thus drivers, drivers, drivers...

For our rk3xxx based devices there is no fully optimised drivers for MALI-GPU, they provide what just ARM provides self.

So, we can simply see that difference while playin any HD or FullHD video on Exynos 4412 chipset based device.

Both devices have same GPU (MALI400-MP4) but Exynos performs much better.

And for the link which you sent me as pm.

I guess tweaking or modifying kernel drivers wont help as much as you expected, itsn't that simple.

Actually your chance lies on luck, kind of gambling.

But I don't know, it seems more testing is necessary.

RockChip must provide good drivers for the manufacturers, re-engineering or re-mastering may help somehow but not at all.

But may be skilled linux devs can improve drivers.

For me, arround 16 gb 1080P movie plays like charm, ofcourse there is frame dropping but not disturbing at all.

And LCD clock last thing you have to worry about.

May be I could be mistaken and know wrong, If someone explains better then we both know better.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] RASTAVIPER:
Geass custom Rom is rooted too.

I can confirm that.

CS968 Exclusive MODDED ROM EQS-v2.0 1080p

Okey, but Lucky patcher didn't worked with that SU, whatever if you say the other rom was rooted then I believe you, will change previous post.

Your welcome :good:
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] EQUANCY:
Added 1080p support for firmware of November, Antutu performance decreases a bit, however MediaPlayback smoother and device runs faster.

I think the new kernel focuses mostly 2D performance and VPU.

But both firmwares will be available for downloading as apart (First post).
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] dony71:
Unfortunately I have 5MP camera version

Any plan to support this?

Thank's
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] EQUANCY:
Sorry but I don't have 5 mpx version to test, so I can't :(

May be changing camera module with this firmware may work but it is risky and I don't suggest.

Hello everyone, i installed it, but for some strange reason, XBMC is loading on WIndowed mode with this rom. Anybody else have this problem? Ty in advance
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] EQUANCY:
Which version did you flashed? 1.0 or 1.1b, actually I've never seen that but it is strange, have you installed XBMC from where?
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] lanc3lot:
Ty for the reply,

I have the December Gotham build installed (got it from .org site), and the 1.1b version. It doesn't allow me to even touch the option, it's grey.

I have connected CS968 to a Samsung, 2013 Smart Tv Full Hd model
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] EQUANCY:
Would you try these steps?

Uninstall/Remove your own XBMC first.

Download XBMC linked app from this link

Copy this file to an USB drive or direct to your device, where ever you want, just remember where it is.

Go to your TVBox, open RootBrowser and forward to place to where you put xbmc.nm

Copy xbmc.nm file to :

../sytem/app

DO NOT RENAME OR CHANGE EXTENSION TO ANYTHING, LET IT SO REMAIN.

Reboot your device...
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] lanc3lot:
Ty for your input mate. I will get back to you later today, as i am at office at the moment.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] dony71:
Is the camera driver in the kernel or as module?

If as module, can you tell me module name?

If in the kernel, can you help to compile with 5MP driver?

I think some of folks over here will need 5MP ROM,

especially knowing that your ROM is great

If you don't have the HW, I will help to verify the ROM
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] lanc3lot:
Just to be sure of the process, after I download the xbmc.nm to my USB, I reinstall u mean the xbmc right? I have to put a specific one?

Ty again
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] RASTAVIPER:
Don't know if it's connected with your case but from different versions of XBMC that I have tried I got also some that was only running in windowed mode. And this happened with other CS968 rom.

So maybe try with some other version also.

[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] EQUANCY:
Sorry, I've been busy.

I'm affraid I didn't noticed extension of file, I tought it was apk extension but not :)

so, you need to change .nm extension to .apk, and put it to /system/app directory.

Or you can try to install by yourself, I don't know it works or not.

Success...

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apex88:
hello guys,

got nexus 4 with 4.4.1 stock rom+kernel.

im experiencing annoying bug with expanding notification: when unlocking the phone and then expanding the notification in the notification bar for the first time after the unlock, it goes back automatically to normal notification after few seconds.

for example, when i receive email, i unlock the phone, draw down the notification window and expand the gmail notification for additional options (such as delete), but few seconds later it goes back to normal notification size (automatically), if i expand it for the second time it stays expanded.

it really annoys me because if i wanna delete the email and i try to press the delete its gone and i accidentally press another notification which opens another application.

Hope i was clear.

is there a solution for it?
[One (M7) Accessories] cannonofcourse:
Couldn't find one so I made it. I have trouble reaching accross the screen on my HTC One and OneXL and kept dropping it. I noticed tablets have cases with a strap and my phone needed one.

I bought a Rocketfish slim as he'll hard case and put a thin hole right under the camera eye, just tilted a little to fit my grip. Took a piece of Velcro strap ran it through the hole and around a bottom grove I also cut slightly.

This has been something I've done with every phone since my One XL and can't live without it. I can drive , walk, run, kick the dog, and never drop it.

I can reach the other side of the screen and the power button on top. Then twirl it around like Jesse James and holster it. Ha!

Cheap, easy!

It is black.... its the M7 At&t version. I dont think its anything special. Put a invisishield on it. that strap is the best thing Ive ever had for any cell phone.
[One (M7) Accessories] cannonofcourse:
this is better than the fly grip.. actually if I started producing this case mod I would put that poor little company out of business.. This is the best mod or any accessory that Ive ever had for any cell phone. It holds my phone on my finger and I can use wireless charging and NFC. Flygrip didnt think that far ahead. An accident that I cant live without now..

hi

How do you back up on wm5? I know how to on 2003/2003se but how?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] kta:
UNfortunately WM5 does not have a backup utility built into the OS, presumably because of the new permanent storage feature. You need to install a 3rd party product I'm afraid.

You can try SPB Backup 5 (beta) or Sunnysoft Backup Manager (not beta). The latter is very stable and does it's job properly. I haven't tried SPB Backup yet. Sprite Backup will also be available for WM5 soon.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] gunggu:
SPB Backup for WM 5.0 has been released and it's a lot better than Sunnysift's

Hi there, I own HTC Desire (Bravo)

I rooted my phone year ago or so, tried different ROMs etc.

I dont remember when exactly, but my Google play store is loading pages really slow.

I am not in US, I doubt its carrier based issue..

Currently I'm using CM..I think its 8 or 9, not sure of the version because recently my ROM manager app stopped working.

(Will try to reinstall it when I get calm enough to open Google Play Store again :) )

On the startup it says CM 7 (mod) but I think it does so for all versions. I flashed CM using clockwork mod.

To solve issue I've tried clearing cash/data but it didn't help

Btw I use wi-fi mostly, but issue is the same whether I use mine or some other wi-fi

I find this device to be extremely laggy...Asus has better tablets IMO...that said, it was a gift and I am wondering if it would be improved signifigantly with a custom rom?

I'm no stranger to flash, I have been rooting my phones going back to the Samsung Moment, and my Asus tablet as well. I'm pretty good at reading and learning on my own but I really can't find the answers to these questions.

Now that CM has released an official build for hammerhead why do they not have a thread here? I didn't want to post in any roms threads in case they said there is a specific reason or not. Have they just not gotten around to it? I much prefer xda threads to google+ to watch a rom develop.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
they have www.cyanogenmod.org and their own forums, why would they post here?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aeppacher:
In my experience, they have always had a thread in the past, saw no reason for that to change. I don't like everyone doing their own thing, its impossible to find Roms and dev nowadays. What happened to a good old fashioned changelog? Everyone is too good to write the features of their rom or a changelog. Idk I am a bit frustrated with nexus 5 development right now. The gs3 always had nice devs willing to post everything

Edit: yes I fully understand they owe me nothing as I do not pay, but I do support and donate to any dev who works hard and I have committed my own time to a free kernel that I spent hundreds of hours on, so please read this as me being whiny
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
So someone from the CM team should create a thread for each device they maintain, update it daily for you along with actually working on the builds? Why can't you read the change logs, gerrit, or github yourself and let the devs do what they do best? They shouldn't be wasting time updating threads here when they are supporting so many devices. They would need a secretary just to maintain the threads.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lingarajug:
I am not sure if I can post this solution in this thread as I am not a developer and merely sharing my experience, It seems several people are having issues with bootloops after installing att update or for some other reason, my post deals with helping only a certain issue. You should be able to boot into recovery by any means in order to use my solution.

The problem I had was I was trying to flash a new Rom and copied Rom and gapps into my phone( of course I was rooted and had recovery flashed) and then out of curiosity I wiped everything in advanced wipe in twrp so now I have no Rom to boot into or no file to flash and either download mode would not work, I was p******g in my shorts as I my phone was only a week old and its dead that's what I at least thought. And after spending the whole night no solution was found in xda website and neither did Google help any, now the solution. now u should compare this to ur problem and find where u stand. I installed pdanet on my pc as stock lg drivers don't seem to help pc recognize my phone in recovery mode, then I plugged my phone to pc while phone is still in recovery mode and then opened pdanet in pc and installed lg drivers through it and then adb was able to see my device(until now I was trying adb sideload and it wasn't working) so when adb was able to see my device, I used sideload in twrp and pushed Rom from pc to phone using sideload commands and my phone was back and I am the happiest man in the world. So in short

1. This method works only for people who can boot into twrp recovery but not into phone.

2. Have ur desired roms and gapps ready 3. Make sure u have a working adb in ur pc and if not install minimal adb and fastboot application only onto ur desktop for easy access, and copy ur desired Rom and gapps into that folder and rename them to 1.zip and 2.zip for easy reference and easy adb commands.

4. Download and install pdanet on your pc. Power on ur device into recovery and plug it into your pc. Start adb from the folder u installed on your desktop(hold shift and right click within the folder(minimal adb and fastboot) and click on start command here option, command opens up and it will show in which folder ur in and then type adb devices and if everything is right your phone in sideload mode should show up as adb sideload and if not (this is where the problem is) run pdanet and install lg drivers through it and then unplug exit sideload and restart sideload in ur phone and plug it back to pc and ur pdanet will notify u have connected ur lg phone. Then run adb again and type adb devices and it will show up as adb sideload and now (you should search how to use sideload as I don't remember those commands) and push Rom into (the ones u renamed for easy access and reboot and all should be all. Sorry for the lengthy post but I typed this solution into several posts individually and so decided to put it up as sticky and if anyone feels to remove part of or all the post I have no problem, just wanted to do my help to others with similar problem.
