landscape and portrait

Can you please see if this stick will work in portrait mode ? I'm working on a home arcade and would like to use android for a digital pinball game instead of windows. Most of the boxes / sticks I've looked at won't work but I've read that rooted ones will display in portrait mode. Thanks for any help

Hi you should be able to set portrait mode on any tv stick/box as long as your rooted by just Changing the ro.sf.fakerotation to false and ro.sf.hwrotation to 180 and after the reboot, its should be on Portrait you can use a build prop Editer like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor&hl=en

Any RK3288 tv stick/box is easy to root with a root update zip and also any amlogic s802 is also easy to root the same way

OK so is there one that's idiot proof cause I really dont wanna screw it up.

I think I much prefer the mini PC with Windows OS, because the Windows OS is more similar with desktop which you can tackle your business work any time you want.

The android OS will be limited, you can only play some games or watch movies like your cellphone, anyone agree with me?

Hello. I bought a V5 few minutes ago and getting ahead of certain things I would ask if I can put a personal menu on the main screen

using any program, such as: "Nova Launcher" or other similar?

There is possibility of rooting the device? I thing I read this device is pre-rooted?

Can I use my phone to control it? Like a google-tv or similar?

I hope I do well this V5 as the other android-tv I have

Thank You
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] blinkone:
Hi There,

1.Yes you can use nova Launcher or any other launcher thats no problem.

2.Yes they come already rooted :) but even if it don't come rooted its easy to root with (3288 EZ Root Tool)

3.Yes you can use your phone to control the v5 https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_8lNgpEVd4WUXlaVnpLVzc4SGc/edit?pli=1

You will love the speed of the v5 its very fast for a tv stick.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] pepetops:
Hi. I go it now!

It seems is not Google_TV compatible?

My BT keyword has problems connecting v5...

Has a gigabyte ethernet? I have a good ethernet cable and the speed is like a fast not giga...

What's about HDMI-CEC? Also I have problems trying connect in this mode

Well, I continue to check it
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] pepetops:

[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] fl0wfr:
Depending of the shop, I saw some of them mentioning the stick compatible with 802.11ac, and others only mentioning 802.11n. Are there 2 different revisions? How can I be sure it will support 802.11ac before buying it?
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] nra303:
The manufacturer's web site states support for b/g/n. They do not mention wifi 802.11ac.

I would rely on that information when making a purchasing decision.

I don't think I can post links just yet so try rikomagicDOTcom. Look at the Spec page for that product.

I have one but I have only connected to wifi - g (54mbps). I purchased from an Amazon store which is called MaiJin_Shop. It took the estimated time to be delivered.

The device came rooted with an APK installer. So far I think it works well. I have not tried streaming any content to it. That is not my intended purpose for this device.

I hope this is some help to you.

Virtual HDMI on Rikomagic V5

I tried unsuccessfully to Use the "HDMI virtual switch" (unplug) to cheat a bit to an official application that did not allow rendering to full screen the contents but for few Samsung "certified" equipments.....

Has any RMK fan developped any HDMI virtual switch compatible with our V5 device?

I only have HDMI to render the RMK output (no glass on our virtual tablet...) so we have to by-pass the HDMI control natively....
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] Bruce5442:
I have a problem that is not the device's fault, but nevertheless, makes running many apps, I've downloaded unusable.

It maybe my newbie lack of knowledge.

How do I "click" or push the screen buttons on my TV? The mouse clicks absolutely do not trip the buttons.

Is there a keyboard sequence or game pad device that has a Finger touch button?

Thank you for any help.

This didnt work unfortunately. I bought the RKM V5 based on your post and this fix doesnt help. Please guide.

Thanks
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] blinkone:
You no you can use a screen rotation app something like this

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bong.android.androidlock&hl=en_GB
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] omdb-pilot:
Yes I have used all the popular ones out there. None worked.

From stackoverflow suggestions:

I changed user_rotation value in /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db as well.

But basically nothing is working to force portrait mode on this device.

Is there anything else we can try?

Thanks
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] esloudan:
I just got one of these used. It works great but the launcher isn't that great. Since I got mine so cheap I decided to pay for Top TV Launcher and love this thing now. It does work with amazon prime video app. For games and apps that r in portrait mode I use and app called rotation locker. Everything I use has worked fine. Its great for me cause I travel a good bit and this can easily work with hotel internet. The best thing I do to improve it ten fold was changing launchers. Top TV makes it seem like a new device.

Mine is a US plug and the part that plugs to wall is 1.5 x 2.75 x 1.33. Or do u need to know the size of the plug that goes into the dongle?

This is a really cool ROM that works on the RKM v5. Only issues I had so far has been random artifacts on screen once in awhile while using the mouse, and the other sometimes turning off power it freezes up. Download in post 94 works best for me.

For those who want to power this stick using USB -

This stick can take USB-DC cable with tip of 4.0mm x 1.7mm. Just make sure the supplying power is 2A or more.

IRC FREENODE zombi-x

All,

The ROM is still in BETA and by flashing it you are helping the BETA Testing process ;)

It may still have some bugs, spontaneously reboot, drain the battery faster or heat up a bit. The aim is to make it better and fix them.

If you find a bug and want to report it here please post a logcat (after it occurred) with a description of what you were doing at the time and the rough timing in the logcat to look at (these things get huge!).

You can also post a dmesg which is the kernel boot logs and can indicate issues with data corruption or hardware.

If you get a reboot then please post a last_kmsg from the /proc folder.

How to get a logcat

How to get useful logs

Thank you!!

There is no Q&A section for this rom as it is still in dev so you are ok to post your questions here!

[Asus Transformer TF700] ntunix:
Thank you so much for releasing this! It's simply amazing!

Here's the result of my experience with this ROM so far:

- After formatting data, it installed ok, first boot was rather quick. While filling up my google account on the first boot, the tablet suddenly rebooted. Very weird, but after the reboot it worked just fine, just had to enter the initial wizard again. ('m using f2fs so hope everything is fine, it seems so as I didn't have to reinstall the rom).

- But then I noticed the camera didn't work. However, that got fixed after doing a reboot on my own.

- Overall, seems really fast and responsive, and I'm not even running on ROM2SD yet, just on internal and still feels quick.

- So, just missing the dock battery info on the dual battery widget ;):good:

Thank you so much guys! You're the best! Looking forward to further releases! :good:

PS: Altough the charging light comes up, it seems the dock is not charging the tabet for some reason.

EDIT: The dock is charging the tablet after all, just no information is available.

PS2: 1080p support on YouTube app! :D:good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] finotti:
Firstly, I'd like to thank the developers for their outstanding work!

Now, I am curious if LP really runs better (in the TF700, specifically) or is it just our flash-aholic personalities? In this case I am a bit hesitant, due to the lack of XPosed. (In particular, I'd like to have XPrivacy... Greenify is also nice...)

So, is there a really noticeable difference from the previous Zombi? (I know it is, perhaps, subjective, but I'd like to hear opinions... I've heard not so great comments on the Galaxy S5 forums.)

Thanks,

Luis

[Asus Transformer TF700] BULL3TPR00F:
Are there any ASUS Apps included or any of the Apps Packs by kansasboy001 compatible?
[Asus Transformer TF700] grayfoxmg1:
I don't think there is a new ASUS app package yet, but remember we are the bleeding edge right now. Since this rom has opened the lollipop doorway, it's only a matter of time before someone follows [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] through.

yeah i figured it might be too early.

are there any asus devices out that have official lollipop rom? maybe we can port those apps over.

[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Do you have Zombi-Pop installed internally before installing it to rom2sd? That, I suspect, was possibly a contributing factor? (That's little more than a guess, though.) I have no real answer for you here. It happened, it was weird. Did you try selecting *only* Nova and installing it?

But *thank you!!!!* for this great rom.

And re my last post about having it up and running...

Well, the whole install blew up on me and wouldn't even let me back in... I couldn't pull any logs for anyone because I literally could not access the external microsd.

So I wiped it all (reformatted the f2fs /data w/ TWRP just to be sure) and reinstalled with Omni Kernel and fsync *not* disabled. Cleanest install ever... but I did note as it started loading there were three file missing errors. I'll try to post a phone pic I took of it if I can wrangle it off my phone later, but suspect they'll not be there on reboot, and they weren't that important (had to do with a file pointer to 60clock, the config file for overclocking and so on - in short, I can tweak that to fix if needed).

What were the changes that helped?

1. Do not have an internal Zombi-Pop installed if you want to run external. No proof for this, but I do note that it wasn't until I wiped the internal (which worked fine) and put Zombi-X internal that I even got close to a decent install via rom2sd.

2. Factory wipe, then format /data f2fs.

3. Install with the default settings overall, but with some exceptions:

* Select rom2sd installation (of course)

* Select f2fs

* Select *not* to disable fsync (it *is* disabled by default)

That's my advice, again, not authoritative beyond the fact it has (so far!) worked for me.

Blessings.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sungod88:
does this rom support dock charging. i really need the dock to charge the tablet
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Yes it does. So does the current stable (KitKat) version, Zombi-X. You might think it doesn't because there's only one battery icon at upper right corner... but that's cuz the code for that second battery icon was never included. But again, the second (dock) battery IS charging.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RedSkyRoad:
I just selected Nova as the ONLY launcher and apex installed... I did a complete wipe (alwasy remembering to delete the /sdcard/Android folder as well because this carries crap over between flashes as well)
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Logs, guys. Logs! Get into the habit ;)

Save the Aroma log, save the TWRP log and post them for installation problems. Run a logcat for fc's, pull the last_kmsg for sudden reboots.

Otherwise sbdags&Co are groping around in the dark (which can be fun under certain conditions - just not in this case).

I'm still on beta 3, will flash 4 as soon as it downloads, see if I get the same launcher and post the logs.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Can I suggest that those of us who (though perhaps we do it on occasion) want to avoid a command line simply download syslog (a freebie) from the playstore? It zips together all pertinent logs into one file. Simply use a browser (Chrome does it best in my experience) to log on to this forum and append the zip file so sbdags, josh, and/or others can take a look-see. I am a fellow sinner who rarely posts my own logs... but this tool makes it too easy too skip doing.

An unrelated note - even though I had the rom2sd running w/ Zombi-Pop, I ended up bailing out of it again. For one thing, that gives me an excuse to install it again. For another thing, it still keeps spontaneously rebooting. And I do actually use this thing to work with, so had to go back to Zombi-X for the moment.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hks1234:
Same 4 me.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Yep, clean install of beta 4 with only Nova launcher selected results in Apex being installed.

Logs below.

Interestingly enough Apex is not present in the app drawer, but it is in Settings > Apps >All
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Thanks - still no mention of apex in the logs so it's not a script error .... Even weirder if it is not in the app drawer - ghost applications on zombi!!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Rubister:
This is something I was not aware of when working inside TWRP. I think I have 2.6 so I'll probably upgrade using fastboot and then... I have a data2sd install with F2fs partition on the tf700, is there a specific data2sd.zip I need and do I just flash it the same way I flash a ROM?

Edit: Is this the file? http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=5996
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
OK I have selected only Nova. And it installs Nova but it is actually Apex :)

Which is very odd!

Will fix it up after work.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sungod88:
Thats weird because I left the tablet on the dock so that it would charge but it never did the battery just continued to drain over night.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
If you want TWRP to act on the external data partition (backup, wipe, format), then yes, you need to flash data2sd.zip first.

And yes, you flash it like a rom via "Install".

The switching of the device nodes does not survive a reboot. So you can just reboot to get TWRP back to "normal" or flash data2sd.zip again - same effect.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lmmohr4:
Bern, don't you mean Data2sd1.zip? (Or am I missing something?)

lmm
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Hmm... does it charge when plugged directly into the tablet? If so, it is possible your dock is dying. I had that happen with my old TF101 and had to replace the dock. (There are directions on replacing the dock battery, on youtube I think... guess I shoulda done that but didn't know the option existed.)

Havin' fun with Z-pop

I've been using Zombi-Pop for about a week now. External as R2Sd with 5.4 Internal, _thatv11, Aroma defaults, Apex. (Still using Chromi-X external as every-day Rom, though.)

Loving Z-pop. Haven't had a lot of others problems...maybe one FC, but a lot of reverts to Lock Screen. Everything works except no Microphone icon on default keyboard. ('This was a problem early on with KK too.) Hope that gets fixed soon.

Battery life is shorter, but workable.

Super job, guys. You've gone above and beyond...thanks.

lmm
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
If anybody get a "spontaneous" reboot for whatever reason in Zombi-Pop. PLEASE CAPTURE A LAST_KMSG. I've seen probably 20 people talk about a reboot and not a single log relating to it. Also pertinent information (ext4 f2fs, data2sd, _that kernel etc) is a MUST.

I've been rocking Zombi-Pop for a week+ on data2sd f2fs and everything is hunky dory :laugh:

Oh and I forgot to mention. My avatar is actually a flesh-eating Zombie monkey and he is getting hungry. He doesn't like people who don't include logs so they may be the first to go :D:D:D

Battery life gets better after a few days

---------- Post added at 04:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

I dont think my dock charges the tablet while it's switched on any more. Not entirely sure if that is because of the ROM or because of a fault. but it does charge it while it is switched off.

interstingly (or not), although Zombi-X couldnt show the dock battery in the status bar, I managed to get a dual battery widget to work on it. Not had any luck with Zombi-Pop (still hate that name) but maybe a future release will fix that.
