[ROM] Rock5A/B AndroidTV 12 by mo123

@wealas
In software HDMI-CEC is enabled on both ports.
Not sure why it’s not working yet.

@rooted

Rock5B emmc/sdcard firmware.
The 4K HEVC issue seems solved now.

See OP for same password.

Another user mentioned Kodi shows 1080p
Can try above firmware, it is 4K, might have display issues on 1080p only screens.

I’ll give it a shot, thank you.

@mo123 The links aren’t working today, it seems nch.pl is down and has been for a while.

@rooted
I hope they come back online as there aren’t many Nextcloud providers with free storage I can use.

Could you temporarily upload the updated Rock 5B+ firmware to wormhole.app (preferably) or mega.nz so I can test it, today has been my only free day in nearly two weeks but the link is down ::frowning:

@rooted Send you some links.

One step forward and one step back, on this build VP9 works great but AV1 is messed up. Same issue as before with WiFi ADB not working also.

Do you mind sharing this latest firmware with us also pls?

I cannot use this Firmware using the Password mentioned in the OP.


Is the Rock5C going to be supported any time soon? I’ve tried the Rock5B+ image but it doesn’t seem to be supported by the 5C as it doesn’t boot from it.

Because it’s not B+, use the password for regular B variant.

And yes I have a B+, the firmware for the B still works.

@dun They don’t have the hardware likely and I guess @hipboi or no one has reach out to @mo123 to offer them new devices to bring up.

All speculation, I don’t know for sure but I know mo123 didn’t have and I think still doesn’t have a 5B+.

@dun
Rock5C needs it’s own firmware.
If I have time I will try to make a firmware but I don’t have the device to test on.

It’s the same firmware.
I just send the user other links since they were down.

Oh I see. Kodi in your current Firmware only supports 1080p for me even though I have 4k TV and Rock 5b+.
Few posts above you said it works for few and some not. Anyway to fix this issue ?
I also notice some strange issue that after using Kodi( play a movie) and then come back to Tivimate, I don’t get any sound output in Tivimate until I reboot the Device. Is it a known bug or just me ?

I had the same question but that resolution is just for the Kodi interface, any 4K content should play in 4K. People commented that many devices will struggle to render the Kodi interface in 4K.

Why can’t I switch the interface to 4k in kodi in rock 5B+ ? Even in my Mobile phone it switches to 4k easily…

I dont know if this version works on radxa devices but I would consider have yous watch this video and do some testings.

Does it support 4k resolution, do 4k videos play smoothly without stuttering? and no audio problems whatsoever? then I would definitely buy Raspberry pi5 purely because of it’s software support. Radxa sucks with software support, infact after sale it’s totally forgotten !!! Kudos to the Radxa-Team and it’s software developers

why not a google chromecast w google tv if all u want is android?
