[S912 DEVICES][ROM] Android Pie - the future is near - Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers

Hi All,
Below information is for the dev's on these boards that have the knowledge to create roms and use the SDK from below.
I hope we can spark a flame and reuse our S912.
I came accross the following android 9 Pie ROM that has been uploaded recently for the Khadas VIM2.
The VIM2 is a S912 board designed for Android TV and Ubuntu. https://docs.khadas.com/vim2/FirmwareAndroid.html
Download Link
The rom is flashed by me with Am Burning Tool on my X92 3G/12G and it booted.
The list that worked: Wifi, Ethernet, Bluetooth, Sound.
What did not work: Front Display, 1 out of 4 USB ports, the remote.
So far so good it runs smoothly.

Reserve second post

@minixfreak , @N'ayam Amarsh'e just tagging the developer for attention

I have TX92 3/32GB, This seems to be non LPRAM version, I was not able to flash it directly, I had to convert it to LPRAM, its now stuck in boot logo screen
At-least its booting

@whiteak Maybe willing to help?

[Q] How to set (change) hdmi mode for Ainol Novo 7 Adv

I believe, it's right place to ask general questions.
I have Ainol Novo 7 Avdanced tablet with Allwinner A10 CPU and Mali-400 GPU. It's HDMI output equipped tablet. I would like to change (to lock) HDMI mode from 720p60 to 720p50 or 1080i50, because my TV doesn't support any xxxp60 mode. Is it possible to do somehow?

i have just bout a novo advanced 2. and want to use it as a media player with an hd plugged.
i will continue doing my research.
the idea is 1 configure the 720i 720p 1080i or 1080p (no much interested but will be a good idea)
the other thing is to configure the hdmi to turn off the screen of the tablet and shows the image on the tv. obiously if you unplug the cable you get again the image on the screen of the tablet.

You see, my problem - my old tv doesn't support xxxp60 hdmi-mode, so I have to send xxxp50 signal to it. But I don't have any idea if there is any software for android to do it.

Edit /system/build.prop and change tv.hideStatusBar.enable to false
Stuttering
Change you Netflix quality to the middle one. I had issues with the top quality setting.
So I have both the Jynxbox HD and also the mini HD.
Both came with a remote but the mini remote does not have the gyro or acts like a mouse.
Any ideas why the Jynxbox HD remote will not work on the mini except the power button?
I looked at the remote.conf in /system/etc and they are the same between the 2 models.
I have taken both your ROMs links above apart and I do not see the reason why? In fact both ROMs look 100% the same?
Build.prop model= the same device model. I think there is no difference between them that I can see.
Might be a hardware thing between them for the IR remote? Any ideas?
Also the remotes are NOT 2.4 as the specs say. Both are IR.
One thing I will say. Thanks for startin this thread. There is not much info on these devices out there! I am learning these devices the hard way!

The HD remote needs the included USB dongle plugged in to work as a Gyro. If you plugin the dongle to the Mini it should behave like an airmouse/gyro.

I noticed they look 100% identical myself, but I wanted to post what I yanked from each device regardless. Gives the dev's more to play with in the end. The remotes should work with either device. I have both on the same desk and ended up discontinuing use of the remotes due to cross over.

There is also some discussion happening on Freenode in the #xbmcandroid channel. AdamOutler, Entropy512 and I have been discussing some of the various bits the last few days.
exFAT Support
I can confirm an exFAT filesystem created from Windows 7, written to from Linux using the FUSE filesystem driver can be read on the JynxBox HD.
Hey there,
Been playing with the Jynxbox HD and Mini. I've been using a 3TB HDD for my local content and Jynxbox is able to read it. It's formatted to NTFS so I guess external HDD's up to 3TB and NTFS are supported.
Hope that helps someone out
Possible Video Decode Chip
Poking around the openlinux site that AMLogic maintains I found the below link. It looks like they are using a Synopsys ARC chip for video decode.

Not sure offhand. I don't believe mine changes the LED colors much, just shows them lit or flickering if memory serves.

Not that I am aware of. Do you know of a possible candidate ROM to test?
There has been some discussion of building a Cyanogen based ROM... But, there is a lot of work that would need to go into it and a good copy of the kernel is going to be needed.

There is a thread on pivosforums that outlines the fix for netflix. Having said that: I applied the fix and found the netflix playback to be a bit lacking. On the full quality setting I had a lot of stuttering and buffering problems. Dropping the quality down to a level resulted in pretty poor quality on my TV.

Last I had heard there is not a clockwork recovery available for this device. Where did you find a cwm image (link if possible).
This is a version of the Linux image that works for Jynxbox Android HD and mini (wifi is not working on mini).

Megaload link
Here is a version of XBMC with Hardware Acceleration for the Jynxbox:

Working well.
Here is the version from the Gbox modified to work on the Jynxbox. I found it on some other forums.
Deposit files link
Megaload link
4shared Link
Please discuss any issues with the first version.
This is a patch update file for the Jynxbox Android HD that will allow Netflix to works. Its not working full screen but at least you get to watch it.
Megaload link
4Shared link
When you run upgrade->local update, it will not list below files on Jynxbox Android HD box automatically, please press menu button on remote controls 8 times for it to show up.
I haven't tested it on the mini yet. But I assume it will works because both devices are the same build.
This is for Hulu Plus the Landscape version: LandscapeModHuluPlus.apk

MXQ TV box based on S805, how to make USB gamepad work?

I bought this TV box from Aliexpress.com. It has Android 4.4.2 operating system and is based on Amlogic S805 chip. I have already rooted the OS.
USB keyboard, mouse and stick work as you would expect, but I cannot get generic USB gamepad to work with any of the emulators. I have tried downloading bunch of apps from Play Store, GamepadIME etc. I also tried gamepad tester which displayed nothing when I used the gamepad so I guess there is no driver? The controller is fine, I actually tried known good Xbox 360 controller and didn't work either.

Audio over HDMI

Hi all,
I am using Remix 2.0 on my Intel NUC DN2820FYKH connected to my TV via HDMI.
There is no audio over HDMI. How can we fix this?
I am having the same issue with my Nuc DN2820FYKH. Are you running yours from USB?

I am running mine from an SSD and it keeps freezing on the Remix OS boot screen. Got it to actually boot up once, but after that it just freezes everytime! Dont know if it's the SSD... I'm gonna try from USB and see if that fixes it..
Have you had any freezes on yours? Did you use the legacy boot iso?

If the system did boot one time after installation, your problem probably is your custom grub entry.
About audio over HDMI, it's a known Linux issue, and Android-x86 has not alsamixer, so we can't find a solution for this problem yet.

According to the technical specifications, the Remix Mini supports multichannel audio output over HDMI. So is this problem specific for x86 platforms? I have managed to get audio over HDMI working on a Linux platform (Ubuntu), although it was quite cumbersome.
So might this be just a configuration issue? Unfortunately, I have no clue where to start trying.

Remix Mini is designed for Remix OS (and vice-versa). Our notebooks aren't. You can solve your issue on Ubuntu with ALSA. And there is the problem: Remix OS doesn't use ALSA.
Yes, it is a configuration issue, but in a deep and advanced level.

Thanks for the link. I spent hours trying to make this work, but to no avail. After spending more than a week trying to turn my NUC DN2820FYKH into an HTPC running on Android, I have given up for now. In addition to the problem with HDMI audio, I haven't yet found a way to use the NUC's built-in infrared module on Android. There are a couple of initiatives to port LIRC to Android (e.g. Irdroid), but they focus on using the device as an IR transmitter, whereas I would like the NUC to function as an IR receiver.

Click to expand...

Yes, I did. Since I didn't have the kernel sources installed, I just replaced the library file (snd-hda-codec.ko) as suggested in the thread. I also tried different values for the kernel parameters in the grub menu item (it's a dual-boot system with Lubuntu installed in the boot partition). But none of these worked out. I really like to experiment, but applying kernel patches is something that I tend to stay away from.
I switched to the latest build of Android-x86 (4.4-r5) which I believe is the groundwork for Remix OS. I can see the HDMI device when I type 'alsa_aplay -l' (card 0, device 3). In Lubuntu, it's a simple case of switching the default device. But as lucasdeeiroz has pointed out, ALSA functionality is not fully implemented in Remix OS / Android-x86.

Screen mirroring not working

Hi,
Was using a USB C to HDMI wired mirror screening dongle with LG V20 earlier without any issue but even though Poco F1 plays USB DAC and other storage devices normally mirroring doesn't work at all. Is dongle not compatible or Miui issue? Anyone using a mirroring dongle successfully then pls link it.

I've read a couple of threads on here and one on Mi forums where people have found the same. I'm hoping it will be added in a software update. Meanwhile it casts to Chromecast natively (not what you're asking for, but something)

Yeah looks like one of those things that Xiaomi thinks doesn't matter to include. Also, I see 'wireless display' in settings on Poco but doesn't mention what kind. So my extended question is does it support Miracast/DLNA?

I think that I read somewhere that it is Google which has made the change in Pie so that only Chromecast will connect. May be an earlier version of android will help.
Hi! I don't want to start another thread, so I'll describe my issue here.
I have last MIUI 10.3.8.0 and I have problems with screen mirroring. Previous MIUI I used to connect my phone to my Samsung TV and it worked as a charm. Yesterday i tried to connect again, but i didn't manage to connect. Have anyone the same problem? Is there a fix for this? Thanks in advance.

Did u find a solution bro? I'm facing same issue.
Yes, I did hard reset and all is OK now.
Hi you all probably figured this out already but it seems that screen mirroring native miracast is broken on most recent xiaomi phone models since they were updated. I have a Redmi Note 5 (Whyred), a mi max 2 and a mi max 3. Only the Max 2 works normally. The other models can cast using apps that cast like Prime Video, VLC etc but can't simply mirror whatever is on the screen. The Miui forums are full of such reports. No response from Xiaomi and no viable workaround. I was already reluctant to upgrade because Id been waiting for MHL hardwired video out to be implemented and it never was (Id pay a premium fot a xiaomi phone that had it). I saw a couple of XDA threads where folks got mirroring to work via custom roms and my phone is rooted but I am uncertain which rom might accomplish this fix for my particular model.
These are my last Xiaomi phones unless I see something official from them about a solution for this known problem. Mirroring is anessential for me not just for entertainment but for work.
Hi I finally solved the problem of screen cast
first (turn on Bluetooth and WiFi )
Then enable the Screen mirroring on the TV
Then connect the WiFi to the TV
Enable Screen cast on phone and search and connect to TV

I don't know whether this might help anyone else but I had disabled miconnect package on my Xiaomi devices. when I re-enabled miconnect service and uniplay service, Chromecast started working again (I am not sure why miconnect should matter ... it isn't supposed to be related to non xiaomi devices, but it is something else to try if you disabled it too).
