Have two questions before flashing this rom.
Yes, it work on new rom.
Yes, it supports for that
Yes confirmed that work, but there is weird info when loading uImage from microSD. Part type is for sure not DOS, it is an ext4 and it boots from this cardâŚ

Which Kodi apk to use with this ROM release? I donât wont to sign-in in Play store just to install KodiâŚ
@Terry there is a big issue within this rom. I am not sure why but it did break the permission on microSD card which I have had for boot ArchLinuxArm. No data lost but owner is changed to something from Android.
I am not sure if I have had microSD durning flash of eMMC but in any way the ROM and ROM boot process should not change this. I know that i saw information that Android found microSD and if I would like to (brows, eject or setup the storage). I selected browse, which did not work. So i guess there is something wrong in image.
Now I need to recreate this microSDâŚ

I did and I enabled PVR addon pvr.vdr.vnsi which connect to VDR running in same Network. But LiveTV in HD is lagging/skipping frames with Khadas VIM Pro (using Ethernet). Watching same LiveTV in HD over Windows notebook (same Kodi version and PVR addon) is working without glitches.
As I live in Europe i changed Android resolution to 1080p@50Hz. There were so many force close of Resolution settings up that I could not count them. Do someone Test this image before release?
If you have any suggestion how to make this better let me know to test it. Otherwise this image isnât working here.
Not to mention this problem with changing owner of microSD which break my ArchLinuxArm resolution @Terry I hope i will get answer about this topic.
@Terry regarding changing owner when microSD is inserted. Does this code below do this? I marked the serial console output with command âchownâ which is for changing ownership, but the rest of command I donât understand.
@Terry or someone from Khadas Support can you check this and fix?

I gave up on Ubuntu until gpu drivers become available, i did flash Nougat yesterday, i still receive message âsystem ui has stoppedâ.
I did receive it with Nougat version from april, i hoped to avoid it with your latest build, because i didnât have such issues with Marshmallow.
Problem is that the message repeats every few seconds, it wonât stop until i reboot or shut down the device.
It happens on daily basis, sometimes it works for few hours without showing up, and i canât figure out what can be the cause of this, i tried looking in the settings, but i donât see a solution.

Did you receive message âsystem ui has stoppedâ when you flash the latest nougat rom(V170612)?
Yes, it happens with latest Nougat, it is very annoying.
Can you provide the android log and kernel log for me when it happens?
Thanks
@Terry I am not sure what does this with âYou can modify some filesâ help me? Can you explain it a bit more.
In my opinion no OS should change owner/permission of an medium from which is not booted (in my case with micro SD card), so this is for me Android Nougat bug in image you use to be able to read this micro SD card. I am not sure if does this with Marshmallow to.
How can i provide these logs, i have never done that?
You can follow below method to take the log
adb connect IP-ADDR-OF-YOUR-DEVICE
adb shell dmesg > kernel.log
adb shell logcat > android.log
I am not sure if i will do it today, but can you tell me where will i send it, by e-mail or shall i paste it here?
You can share the download link for me in this post
Thanks for your feedback. I will have a test for it and will reply for you.
