The ROM sounds very promising. How do the OTA Updates work. Are they provided by the ROM cooks or from some central Android repository? What about boot time?
[MTCB Software Development] carbonad:
Not sure about updates but my unit boots in about 20-25 seconds.
[MTCB Software Development] phil001:
installed, all went ok, needed the extra factory reset to get it to boot but now all fine.

Just got a lot of setting up to do now.

SWC not working properly in poweramp (skipping multiple tracks etc), but maybe i need to alter a setting to let them work on 3rd party apps?

I've always had an issue with google play store on my unit, takes ages to connect / download sometimes, its very frustrating!
[MTCB Software Development] m00n61:
Updates are provided via developer's server. If you go to Settings ->About tablet you will notice a new line "Other system updates", right under "System updates"

Click on that and you will be able to manually check for updates. The system also checks automatically and will notify you when an update is available.

Booroondook has mentioned in a post on 4pda that he will only provide updates (i.e. minor versions) via OTA. Major version upgrades will still need to be done the classic way. However, when upgrading you will keep all your data and only need to do it once, not twice.

Boot time is pretty much the usual 20-25seconds
[MTCB Software Development] carbonad:
Try using ExposedMTC. Should if come with the rom.
[MTCB Software Development] Twilek:
Thanks for the info. I have since installed the ROM which did not go as smoothly as described. I somehow had to install the thing 3 times and it resetted itself after the complete install once. But now that it is installed it works quite well and I very much appreciate that there are few things installed from the beginning. I would suggest to add the "No fullscreen keyboard" xposed module and maybe the "Xposed Volume Bar" module but that is maybe just me. Is there any way to reduce the global font size a bit?
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Malaysk's is the laggiest, this one (booroondooks) is not as laggy, you could try deleting all the extra launchers as they are all oaded even if theyre not used, this should make it a bit quicker. Factory and dsa's arent laggy atall.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
I agree dsa isn't lagy, but its too basic, BUT they all start to lag once I open google map, I mean massive lags and it takes really long time to open google maps, booting in 5.1 is way faster than 4.4 tho, but 4.4 is way way smoother, I wonder if I can et new unit with MTCD board would be the same or its designed for 5.1?
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
The chip is the same on MTCD, the board is different but I doubt it would make much difference. you could try fiddling with the processor speeds as was posted recently in Malaysk's ROM thread. I dont have any probs as you suggest with mine though. Dont forget these chips are 3 or 4 years old now, theres reportedly an upgrade to the RK3328 octacore/2GB RAM on the way, hopefully it will just be a new SoM like it was when the RK3066 was upgraded to an RK3188.
[MTCB Software Development] jbleasdale:
One possibility is that the problem is specific to Joying HU's?

I have only seen complaints of 5.1 lags from JY owners.
[MTCB Software Development] psxsnake:
there's ad update

20.07.2016

New features compared to the previous version:

- Integrated Xposed

- Offline OTA-upgrade

- Changed the structure of preinstalled and additional applications under OEM

NOTE: Unfortunately, the firmware detected an error. But fortunately, it can easily be removed independently. The error lies in the fact that every time you boot the installation occurs forced preinstalled applications (and in theory, this preset should occur only once - at the very first boot after installing the firmware). To correct this error, you should (using the Root Explorer, for example) go into the folder / system / bin /, to find there preinstall.sh file, open it for editing in a text editor, and in the second line to replace KLD160511 KLD160617. Then save the file and check that it has not flied attributes. And these attributes should be: the owner 0.0 (root.root), resolution 755 (owner - all group - reading and execution, others - read and execute).

Sorry for the inconvenience

[MTCB Software Development] jbleasdale:
Thanks for sharing.

Will this arrive as an OTA update too or does it have to be flashed?

If the latter, can you flash without wiping data/apps?
[MTCB Software Development] psxsnake:
i dont know about OTA

but you could dirty flash for sure
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
its laggy I tried it

---------- Post added at 05:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------

RK3328 sounds yummy.!

and u mean like overclocking the processor ? is that gonna really make huge deference?
[MTCB Software Development] miffymiffy:
You will have to download this one separately and from then you will have ota.. he removed it for the beta builds
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
ALL units use the exact same board and chips, its deffo not a Joying problem - they are sellers and sell unit from a few manufacturers.

Either, but you have to go into updates and check if one is available.

Removing all the pre loaded launchers helps with the lag, overclocking would make the chip faster so it would help yes, but it would prob also cause temp probs.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
I really not feeling installing 5.1 again, I did like 5 or 6 times and everytime I promise myself not to do it again coz its really freezy and lasy, especially with google maps, but my question is does MTCD units make it better? or just wait for octa?
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
MTCD use the same RK3188 chip, no one else is reporting it being as bad as you are, dunno why, is all your rAM showing up ? - there was someone once who had a bad RAM module so only 512MB was working, that would slow it down.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
ive just check it, its 1024, means 1mb
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Strange, I cant think why yours is so slow then.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
its not that slow, it boot faster than 4.4, and everything run smooth until I start google maps, it become really laggy and slow, plus steering don't work on 5.1 on other apps like Anghami,
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Theres some stuff posted recently on the "Lollipop for MTCB head units" thread.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
can you show me some links plz?
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Its in this forum, one of the top threads !!
[MTCB Software Development] CARRisma:
I might be giving this a go on my HU. Is this the latest booroondook ROM? Is it still neccesarry to go through that long installation process detailed on the first page or is it now more straightforward like other ROMs?

Also, hasn't Malaysk implemented FUSE on his custom ROMs? What are peoples opinions of booroondook ROM vs a Malaysk ROM?
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
No, no need to go through the complex installation proceedure - you can download the older one from [MENTION=925653]darkalex[/MENTION]'s fileserver in my signature, then OTA update.

Its faster than Malaysk's but with less features, sort of halfway between [MENTION=6041319]dsa8310[/MENTION]'s ROM and [MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION]'s. There is a FUSE version of Malaysk's.
[MTCB Software Development] Goaz:
I have exactly the same issue with latest malaysk 5.1.1. rom....google maps just lags as hell.......

---------- Post added at 10:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:24 PM ----------

NO dude, I have a Klyde unit and it has exactly the same problem.

When open google maps the HU goes **** it self.....laggy as a *****.
[MTCB Software Development] CARRisma:
I've just installed the 20/07 booroondook ROM (Android 5.1). Looks good and but I am experiencing some fundamental flaws with it:

- Most importantly, when I uninstall some of the preinstalled apps, such as DVR and EasyConnected, they get reinstalled after reboot. They don't seem to reinstall immediately, but maybe within a minute or so after reboot they will reappear. I've tried uninstalling them through both Settings and Titanium Backup and it still has the same problem.

- I cannot change the boot logo from the two spinning / dancing Androids. The Honda logo is selected but it keep on using the two spinning / dancing Androids.

- As with other people, Google Maps is very laggy.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
NO dude, I have a Klyde unit and it has exactly the same problem.

There are 3 options in one of the boot logo drop down boxes, boot animation 1, boot animation2 and another, have you tried them all, cos I think it wont work on some of them, on all ROMs BTW, not just this one.

I had an update to Google Maps last night on my phone, have you guys updated yours ? Maybe that will cure it ? Just a suggestion.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
I think we gonna need to wait more time until they get 5.1 stable
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Its perfectly stable.

Theres only a lag problem with maps, which may have been sorted with the latest Google update.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
well, tbh the maps works perfectly until I update google service, then everything turn to nightmare, I don't know if am gonna give it one more try maybe next weekend, plus I have issues with steering control, lets see if someone try it after the latest update
[MTCB Software Development] mumu02:
Hello,

I'm new on this forum and I just installed this Rom on my klyde. I'have exactly the same behaviour as mouscolo (on this ROM as well as the one from Malaysk). If I prevent the update of google services, everything works fine. I think I can leave with the google services not updated.
[MTCB Software Development] mumu02:
Maybe a stupid question but how can I deactivate the screen saver ?
[MTCB Software Development] miffymiffy:
As Booroondook explains in the 4pda forum, he made an error whilst building...
[MTCB Software Development] pcmender2005:
You have to edit the mctmanager.ini file open it as a text editor and find the line screen saver true and change it from true to false and save the changes. Then go in to settings and display the turn off screen saver.
[MTCB Software Development] mumu02:
Thanks a lot that did the trick !
[MTCB Software Development] Miniwolfi:
One of the best roms i have ever had. It would be even better with the car launcher pro preinstalled.
[MTCB Software Development] m00n61:
Adding custom launchers is pretty easy on rooted ROMs. Adding them to the ROM images isn't that difficult either. If there's need I'll try to write a short tutorial this weekend.
[MTCB Software Development] Miniwolfi:
I would also like to ad a custom boot up logo to the rom image itsefl. Maybe a cutom boot up sound that would be awesome.
[MTCB Software Development] m00n61:
New version available

Booroondook has updated his ROM. It's based on latest Eonon ROM (October 13) and also includes a 4.4 recovery so no more compatibility issues.

What's new:

- newly incorporated OTA-upgrade

- Changed composition and pre-install additional applications, see the OEM app

- recovery replaced by version 4.4.4 (KitKat )

Download here
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
I wonder how he gets round the MCU check.
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Oh gosh, and I just got everything done on my unit..

Can I resist the upgrade..

Time will tell..

Nope..
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Lol
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Ok, installed.

Have to get pass the Russian language.

Did the clear cache trick

This has a list of launchers..

It is fused, so memory no issue yet.

The default mtc-service does not allow google voice calling even it is 2.6

Using 2.34 fixes that.

Resolution is set to 161 for 800x480

Too small. Still wipe. Report more
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Once youve chosen a launcher delete the others - it speeds it up.

Which version have you installed ? the one from the fileserver or from booroondook himself ? If from the fileserver then you need to use his OTA feature and update it as its an old copy.
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
One posted here.

I delete the launchers, so many
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Ah, the latest.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
I was using his ROM for long time after Malays, I loke stock look, lately I moved to DSA rom since google maps issues started, hope booroondook solve it, am gonna try it now as I only installed DSA rom last night :)
[MTCB Software Development] pa.ko:
Please post your test results. Stability, speed, boot time, BT, Google Maps lagging... I like it for FUSE which is better than DSA fixed partitioning.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
well, I just got home, almost full day using it, its was better and faster from previous version, no more lags, and smooth, you just need to finish the updates, and you good to go, theres like 8 launcher already installed that I removed all but JY, plus I found cool launcher called Action launcher 3 plus, its cool one :D

iam happy again with my unit and 5.1.1 now :D
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Updates? I might of missed something because of it being Russian lang.

I'm going to replace the JY launcher, I like the one with weather.. I have it as an apk.

Grandson parked behind the truck, had to use the car (Challenger). Close to winter, do not like to drive it.. Summer tires not good here..

Will see what I can get done today after home.

Action Launcher? Tell me why?
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
This ROM (booroondook's) is the only ROM with an OTA update function in settings.
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
I was looking OTA update in settings but couldn't find it...

To others, just my info:

After installing and trying the ROM, it was laggy and unstable for me, once hu just restarted itself and the maps were so slow that was unusable...
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Google maps ? Theres a problem with the latest version being slow on these units. What processor do you have ? A way to speed it up is to delete all launchers apart from one.
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
Yes, google maps. RK3188 quad core 1.6Ghz, 1Gb ram. Yes I read about that and deleted all the launchers except one but still slow.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Strange, did you wipe data several times ?
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Trying to locate OTA update.. Hmm..

Have car today.. Will play.. Here in US we will have Thanksgiving and wife for retail.. Be free for a few days and no work.
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
Yes I did. I always do: 1. wipe data 2. clear all and install, and I do this twice (always worked fine) Now I also wipe 3 times and then give it a go but everything was the same, I don't know why google maps are so heavy that the whole system slows down. And I also noticed that the programs opend when the car is turned off and on, doesn't open by itself (probably xposedmtcmanager related).

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------

On the 4pda site its written that OTA should be in : "Settings" - "About your device" - "OTA update system."

I looked in mine but there isn't, strange...
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
There was something in Russian that came up, and I thought I clicked what could of been ignore. I will reloaded the image again and try to switch to english to see what the info was.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Yes, we seem to be starting to get it in the UK as well (seen some shops advertising Thanks Giving stuff), along with Black Friday and Halloween becoming a major event (used to be a minor one here) !
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
Yes thats true, I didn't press anything just back button and that pop up never show again... So i don't really know what to press when this pop up when I reset the unit...?
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Ok, if you have either USB or SD card inserted and the unit sees update.img, it will ask if you want to update the unit.

As far as OTA, not seen.

I do not like that it plays my music as soon as it starts (few secs delay) and trying to stop it.

And temp keeps coming up C even after I say F

The trash del for the launchers is inop, so need to use Root Explorer to remove.

DPI at 161.. Too small.. easy fix in settings
[MTCB Software Development] il_lupo_mannaro:
Hi all,

I'm on DIY_KLD_FUSE_AllCPU_KK444_AllRes_160226_root_mod_boo_2016-03-12_v1.0.0 since nearly seven months.

Tonight, after work, I realized that the notification bar disappeared and waze is crashing.

I re-booted several times without any success.

Any hints? I hope I wouldn't have to flash or wipe it.

When flashing would be the only solution, what's the last 4.4.4 version for RK3066?

Is DIY_JY_FUSE_AllCPU_KK444_AllRes_160223_root_mod_boo_2016-03-30_v1.0.1?!?

Thanks a lot in advance for your support.

fL
[MTCB Software Development] Broo:
I have an older Pumpkin unit (rk3066, MTCB-KLD, I think model #KD-C0224) and was considering purchasing something newer as it was laggy and apps crashed a lot. This ROM + Darkleo's MCU update has made my head unit awesome again! Thank you to all that were involved in cooking up this ROM and the MCU update! :)
[MTCB Software Development] m00n61:
Yes, that was Booroondook's latest 4.4

You might want to switch to Malaysk's 4.4 ROM, his latest ROM (October 2016) is pretty good.
[MTCB Software Development] il_lupo_mannaro:
Many thanks for your info about the ROM.

What about my actual issue? Could it be solved without flashing or wiping?

Thanks in advance and best regards

fL
[MTCB Software Development] m00n61:
Latest versions of Waze do have an issue with the default DPI of 240. You might want to go with a DPI of 200 and see if this fixes your issue.
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
P.s. I optimized, reinstalled, uninstalled several apps with titanium backup and disabled all unused apps and now I have working rom (still without OTA update, because I can't find it or its in background, which I don't think so).

If you want to use xposed mtc-keys and mtc manager etc..., then you have to replace mtcmanager app from priv app (from malaysk rom, which is modified or dsa's september).
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Strange that the OTA feature is missing from yours, what date is the ROM ?

Great that youve got it working smoothly.

Can you get a copy of dsa or malaysks mtcmanager so I can add it to the fileserver for everyone ?
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
ROM is latest from this link:

https://mega.nz/#!KQRCCLbA!Z9MDy8RBlHDi56jXVRp7Vtk4K51zhTzWHwYxh_QTPWA

DIY_KLD_FUSE_RK3188_LP511_AllRes_161013_root_xposed_mod_boo_2016-11-19_v1.0.0

OTA is missing yes, but not just from mine, because it's cclean install, I think oldpapa said that he didn't fint it as well...

mtcmanager link:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/eft8ama2sbco5cq/MTCManager.apk?dl=0
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
OK, on the fileserver there is a copy of a 1024x600 - RK3188 version, why dont you try that and then try and upgrade to teh latest version via OTA ?

Thanks for the link is it the Malaysk one or the dsa one ?
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
Here are both:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/9jeq7fq71jbe0yc/AABozp1exyK9KGm01kE0yJRea?dl=0

Hm...but then probably I will get my unit more unstable if I do this, because it will reinstall more bloatware etc...

I found some apps that have update name, so probably this has to be executed. On 4pda is mentioned that this ROM also has OTA update, but no one has found it...
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
You know how to make the ROM stable again, so I d just try the older version and see is OTA appears.

Have you gone into every section in settings ? (Mine is in pieces at the mo due to damage so I cant help).

I ve been using the ROM since June and I have OTA.
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
I have read to post at the Russian site and OTA is mention. The link is in the build.prop, but nothing to see listed to check.

One thing for sure, if you have anything plugged in (sdcard or usb drive) with MCU.img or update.img , it syas you have an image to install after the unit boots.

This could of been what was displayed after my unit booted up. If you hit what seems to be OK, it takes you back to recovery.
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
Yes, that's true and its mention this on 4pda, so we just can't find ota, hm...

version - from 19/11/2016

Link to the firmware ( made on the basis of EONON-KLD-20161013 ): DIY_KLD_FUSE_RK3188_LP511_AllRes_1601013_root_xposed_mod_boo_2016-11-19_v1.0.0.zip

innovations compared to the previous version:

- newly incorporated OTA-upgrade

- Changed composition and pre-install additional applications, see the OEM

- recovery replaced by version 4.4.4 (KitKat )
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
All the time I ve been using it there has been an OTA option, have you both tried looking in ALL options in settings ?
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
I will look in a few. Time to check out from hotel.
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Nope, did not find any options at all.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Very, very strange.
[MTCB Software Development] Mannikkk:
Hey,

i tried to install booroondook's rom today, but i failed.

When i enter recovery there are a lot of yellow errors (see attachment).

When i try 2 install the rom it doesnt work. it aborts all the steps.

Also tried 2 flash malaysk rom and dsa rom, non of them work. it ends up like this all the time.

And when i reboot the device it get stuck in bootlogo.

I took some pictures for u.

Hopefully anyone can help :-/

Thanks! :rolleyes:
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
I have come across this problem before, I just cant remember what the solution was or even if there was one.

Its deffo an MTCB/C unit ?
[MTCB Software Development] Mannikkk:
Yeah, it should be a MTCC unit (see attachment) ;).
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
try formatting the SDcard (if using one) to NTFS or reformat to FAT32 and place the update.img directly to the root (not in any folder)

The SDcard has to be in the GPS slot. USB in the front slot if you have one.
[MTCB Software Development] Mannikkk:
I was using FAT32 and file in root, when i faced those issues.

Tried NTFS now, but with that filesystem i just see some yellow errors running down the screen and im back in recovery. :(

Anyway thanks for the ideas
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
For update you must use FAT32 sd or usb. For xposed services (mtc-keys, mtc-manager etc.) you can use ntfs or fat32

Try to enter recovery once again and use another sd card or usb key and check wipe data, factory reset and then clear all and update.

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:44 PM ----------

Can confirm that, but if you look into the app settings and ram management there is update proces running all the time, so perhaps its running in background but not started successfully, don't know...
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
My unit is down at the moment but the June or July ROM I was running very definitely had an "OTA" section.
[MTCB Software Development] treech:
How do i go about modifying the statusbar of this rom? There are a few things that i don't really feel like i need like the volume control, ability in invoke screensaver and so on.

I also managed to break next / back actions from my steeringwheel, i think it was by removing carservice since i only needed rk3066 (although i do have a rk3166 unit) on malaysk rom.

the toasts do come up when i press next or prev on my swc but nothing happens when playing music (google music) could also have something to do that the rom "thinks" that the built in player is the default player and sends intents to that instead, haven't tried that yet.
[MTCB Software Development] mouscolo:
iam having problem, my unit is not reading internet from 3G dongle, its showing 3G connection and everything, but no data, any idea how to fix it?
