H3Droid - Android image developed specifically to work on Allwinner H3 devices

pmpp

HEVC 10bits is meant for hdmi 2.0+ and hdcp 2.2 hardware display systems, which are obviously not for a cheap H3 pipeline.

lack of info, what is that device? what is that command supposed to do?

the device is DLP2000 EVM  projector module from texas instruments ,  and the command is supposed to change the projector output from internal splash screen  to test pattern mode .

these are the set of commands that work  correctly when connected  to the i2c pins of raspberry pi ,
RGB666 >> i2cset -y 3 0x1b 0x0d 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01 i
Test Pattern Mode >> i2cset -y 3 0x1b 0x0b 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01 i
Grey Ramp Select >> i2cset -y 3 0x1b 0x11 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x0C i


the same commands i am trying  by connecting to an orange pi pc plus  i2c pins  but its not working.

Please check out the 'How it Looks' page as the layout has changed a bit!

We encourage all users to also re-read the updated H3ii and H3resc pages as some of the options have changed!

Also, take a moment to check out our blog, we will be making more posts there as time goes on!

If you have time to be an development build tester we would welcome you to come by our IRC channel #H3droid on Freenode IRC network and get in touch with us.  

We are happy to provide development access to those who have time to go through the image and provide useful feedback.  

We have added a development channel to auto-update in H3resc for those who participate, however, it is a hidden option which you will need to come chat with us to get!

As always, please feel free to provide feedback here on the forum, on our feedback form or come chat with us on IRC in #H3Droid on Freenode!

Thanks again to everyone who has provided their time and support to H3Droid!

If you LIKE or LOVE H3Droid and want to give back but don't have the time to help, donate to our developers!

Cheers!

i should point something: if you install without hdmi display connected, it will switch to cvbs (in case you get blank screen on hdmi). also, after selecting fex it will switch to hdmi again, so if you use cvbs, you have to change display option too after changing fex

Thank you guys for your work. This is realy excellent rom. Only some small bugs still there. Application names not visible under shortcuts on main screen.
