Thanks very much.

Is it possible to fix the following bugs.

  1. Bluetooth Headset Mic not working.
    Solution is to disable internal mic first to route sound through Bluetooth headset mic.
    Soundabout app from Google Play Store can do this correctly.

  2. On some 4K TV’s UHD resolution setting in Android Settings, Display causes users to get a black screen.

  3. Feature - Use Ethernet connection but trick Android system to believe it is actually a wifi connection.
    On Android KitKat you could install Xposed Framework and ‘Fake Wifi’ v1.7 module to do this.
    This helps to download big games from Google Play Store that only download through a wifi connection.
    It also helps some streaming apps that only work on phones/tablets with a wifi connection and not work with an ethernet connection.

  4. Feature - Support for Xpoesed Framework Lollipop edition.
    To install different modules to give Android extra features.

5.Hide HDMI State, set it to ‘0’ instead of ‘1’ permanently - Some streaming apps only work on phones/tablets without an HDMI connection.

  1. On some TV’s like Phillips users get green/purple screen colors on their TV’s

  2. Feature - TVHeadend support library & tv tuner modules and startup script to load modules.

  3. USB Keyboard repeating keys bug. I’m not sure if this is fixable.

Please add ‘Multi Window’ Light Biz Os support.
It is included in the Firefly SDK but is not accessible in Display Settings.

Also FFMPEG and librkffplayer.so are very old libraries and don’t support Kodi 15.2 or Kodi 16 with pass-through support.

Official remote control can be normal use，there is something wrong with your remote？

Please also add Fireasy support.

Great work! Also saw that you added ubuntu switch. Is there an easy way to make a dualboot lollipop/ubuntu image? Or can you release such a dualboot image?

That would help me in making a machybris/mackodi release based on lollipop…

Thanks in advance!

Never mind. Just made a lollipop dualboot img myself.

For those interested: had to change the kernel a bit by patching the volname attribute part of the following commit in kernel sources, see https://github.com/TeeFirefly/li … bf65c63cb5c6911a0cb. Also turn on: CONFIG_VT=y in your kernel config file.
Then of course configure the right dualboot image to generate an update.img.

Hi

Which kernel & resource.img(second) do you use for the Lubuntu part of the firmware?
I want to replace the wifi with AP6335 wifi with different GPIO and add different IR Remote.
Also want to add RK1000 sound driver to kernel.
If I use unmkbootimg on linux-boot.img, rename second to resource.img and unpack rk-kernel.dts and make changes, repack and flash back it doesn’t boot.
I will try again.

  1. cd ~/proj/linux-rockchip
  2. git clone https://github.com/TeeFirefly/initrd.git
  3. make -C initrd
    +4. truncate -s %4 initrd.img
  4. mkkrnlimg initrd.img boot.img # pack as RK KRNL format
    #or# mkbootimg --kernel $ZIMAGE --ramdisk $INITRD -o $LINUX_BOOT_IMG

I see in your Lollipop dual-boot in unpacked linux-boot.img there is also a ‘second’ file.
I found out it is actually a resource.img file for Linux that works for Linux independantly of the resource.img for Android.
How can I create a linux-boot.img with this ‘second’ file bootloader?
Is anything changed for this ‘second’ file compared to building resource.img for Android eg. something in the Firefly dts file?

HI Leungtek.

I tried this released but in ubuntu i can’t get any page via browser,i’m connected via WIFI successful but no internet in chromium. You know Why?

In android 5.1 we don’t have google services, i’m using custom roms from other website, because FIREFLY don’t release any firmware with google services enabled.

Can you enable it and share with us?

Thanks a lot for share your work!
