UPDATES

18/05/2013: THEXSAMPLE-SXELROM_3.5PATCH.rar

Mirror Mega

Change log

Firmware

- Kernel compiled from sources 3.0.50
- Improvements on system stability (must improve some hangs/freeze of devices)
- New frequency added. There is no need of SetCPU profile. Is recommended to clear application data and start again SetCPU, and choice "Autodetect frequencies"
- Governors smartass2, intelldemand, lagfree and lionheart was deleted, and replaced by the new ondemand, interactive and interactive2, that works better on the device.
- Potential Fix for Wakeup bug. Emulators now must run fine without issues about the screen rate, after wake up.
- Little improvements on 3D performance
- Added new option for reboot, from the power menu.
- JXD Mapping tool deleted. now will not appear in any way the mapping tool interface (Shift key will not open it)

Tincore Driver Update

- Fixed Sticks Dead Zones
- Sticks are Joystick by default from now (you must set manually if you need right stick as IJKL keys)
- Fixed initialization routine.


Installation:

- Extract the rar file. There are 3 files.
- Put on your miroSD card
- Boot the device in recovery menu
- Select "install zip from EXT"
- Browse and select the file you want to flash (each file flash different kernel speed. select the speed you want to use. (Recommended: 1200MHz)
- Reboot the system



Features

Here is a short list of changes included in this version of firmware.

Later in this article, there is a section with extended information about these changes.

Firmware

Image


[*] Include support for USB Bluetooth dongles[/*]
[*] This includes new governors set for the console hardware[/*]

Tincore Driver


[*] Calibration ajusatada for DPAD[/*]
[*] Improvements and optimizations in the driver code, to get even less lag.[/*]
Tincore KeyMapper


[*] Support for languages.[/*]
[*] Minor improvements in UI tool[/*]
[*] DEBUG Option[/*]
[*] Creating online guide tool[/*]

Note on Bluetooth Support

Not all Bluetooth USB dongles behave the same way, and the clasificaré in 3 groups:
[*] Only some have 100% support, and able to connect, disconnect and work seamlessly with the device.[/*]
[*] Others may only work if you are connected to the console from the start of it, and if disconnected, they will not start until you restart the console.[/*]
[*] And others, very few, may not be able to work with the console.[/*]

That said, emphasizing that most dongles that we used in the tests correspond to Group 2 of the above list, and only one has been in group 1, but still the connectivity and operation we tested is suitable and practical, if we have the console plugged into a TV.

What's more, the videos I uploaded to show this feature, corresponding to a dongle in group 2, and as you can see works seamlessly with multiple devices.



The video above shows the work in progress of this feature.

On connectivity Sixaxis



(Using a SIXAXIS with the console)

Overall, there have been problems with device connectivity, but if identified and strange behavior is that when connecting Sixaxis controls, after a few seconds in some cases these are switched off (or when you connect a second controller is off the first), but not always the case and simply reconnect the tool again.

According to the evidence, it may be because, for some reason, the program does not work well when the controls are low on battery (below 50%).



(Console working with 2 sixaxis connected simultaneously)

Version Recustom

It has generated a TheXSample-SXELROM v3.0 release Recustom with the same characteristics as the original rom, plus some extra programs related withthe bluetooth.

Credits:

As in previous updates, here is the work of many people, although it seems small upgrade, I can say it's quite achieving the advancement of Bluetooth and achievers who deserve all the thanks, and among which I will highlight a Skelton (great manager of the idea), Christian Troy, Lomax, Tincore (which never tires of implementing improvements) and myself, that force me to go out in the credits XD, plus I can leave out now .

We also wanted to give a thank you to the store Willgoo, that has been very helpful to give us the necessary support to add the option of accelerometer in the mapping tool (released in a previous patch), and now we have the "Wiimote style "to play some retro-gaming (it's great to play Mario Kart 64, tilting the console like a Wii steering wheel): D

The special thanks of this firmware is for the groups "The Mox", "Les Miserables", "Marilyn Manson" and Daft Punk (among others) for that because we had a lot of energy injected encouragement and strength to the long nights of testing that has taken this firmware.

Zalu2!

TheXSample - SXELROM v1.0



immagine ridotta, clicca per ingrandire

main feature:



Based on Skelrom v1.0 for JXDS7300B, private 1.4stock firmware sources and JXD 1.5. Includes all skelrom and last official firmware fixes.
Clean code. Official sources only. No alien code.
New mount points. Now internal and external mount points are at the same level in the filesystem and not one inside the other. Swap is easier.
Deep sleep improvements. WiFi disable when sleep saves a lot of battery.
New Kernel features by Skelton andTincore (check Kernel chapter)
New specific governors tailored to device hardware. Specially new "ondemand" scores more than 10000 Antutu points with console processor running at 1.3GHz (No cpu stress needed)
New "ondemand" governor allows cooler execution.
50Hz to 60Hz screen fix, The same that we suggested JXD to incorporate in his 1.5 firmware (Check screen refresh note)
New Tincore input kernel driver. It provides lower input lag and lots of extra configuration options to support new sticks and buttons operation modes.
"Tincore Keymapper", UI Mapping tool to configure specific input kernel driver options (check Tincore Keymapper chapter)

About new Kernel
immagine ridotta, clicca per ingrandire

This firmware's kernel has been created using JXD 1.4 sources. Those sources, whith some small chanes, have been released as JXD 1.5 firmware.

(new governors added)

More important kernel feautres:

Chanes in CPU and voltage to improve temperature and stability.
Support CIFS/NFS for seamless net shares filesystem mount.
I/O schedulers and NAND optimizations. Improve read/write operations and memory access.
Mali driver optimizations to speed up 2D and increase graphical memory cache buffer.

Image


(Antutu Benchmark result with new firmware improvements, governor “ondemand” and 1.32GHz. Reaching 10000 points which is a bit better than 1.5GHz with performance governor)

About new input kernel driver: Tincore Driver

Tincore provided a new kernel driver to improve latency and support many missing features in original drivers.
immagine ridotta, clicca per ingrandire

(Keymapper, with new features like pointer mode)

Driver improves response times because it is more optimal and faster than the original. This reduces input lag

New driver enables key events for all sticks when mapping tool is disabled, This allows to use right stick as a key pressing digital stick. Because of this it can be used by emulators and games that can be controlled with keyboard.



(Showing some of the new features of the Tincore's Driver)

immagine ridotta, clicca per ingrandire

(Keymapper using original JXD driver)

The new mapping tool supports both JXD driver and, naturally, the new Tincore driver.

The tool supports multiple stick modes (split/combined/pointer...) and allows to define where is the screen pressed when a button or stick is operated.

The tool supports profile save and restore and portrait mode.

Because of its backwards compatibility the tool by itself is a good replacement for the JXD mapping tool. Ley profile support is already a great addition.

Patches

The patch includes a file folder with different kernels at different speeds (1200, 1320 or 1500 MHz) as well as the possibility of exchanging the SWAP and the external memory and return to conventional partition system JXD. Within each folder is how to install and that is what.

Patch - Mirror Mega

    Keep [VOL+] pressed until you see an android image with a progress bar. The firmware will be installed automatically and at the end of the process the device will reboot.
    Your device is updated!

Thanks to:
This firmware has been possible thanks to the work of several persons. All valuable contributions have been in the form of coding, suggestions, testing...

Thanks go to Tincore, Skelton, Christian Troy, fun_, fuser-invent, LomaX, Namco69, Yoshi41, Deen0X and more.

Also thanks to web shops Willgoo y Zococity that provided testing devices that allowed tetst and feedback for the team.

(Gracias a que pude contar con mas de una consola, me fué posible realizar una serie de pruebas en paralelo para obtener información útil que se utilizó en el desarrollo de algunas de las características del firmware)

I also want to give special thanks to the couples (wives, etc) several of whom have been working on this project, that it takes patience and an understanding that we do this because we love, and we want to share it with more people.

I hope this project is the starting point for more projects of the same type, which are extremely rich in both technical knowledge in general, but especially on a personal level, because in my case I meet interesting people, who always is rewarding and I hope to keep in touch. ^_^
