*** Important update! ***

The sooner we get confirmations, the sooner we can have an ultimate unit. After speaking with [MENTION=20219]StangATX[/MENTION] and recognizing his skills with Android OS and interfacing it with the S550, I am covering the costs of a unit from the manufacturer to send to him for development and improvements on this order. This means:

- No more Engrish!
- Updated GUI
- Potential for full End-User customization
- Testing 3G Connectivity
- Future support and updates and more.

If it weren't for him and [MENTION=24567]Pablotheartist[/MENTION] I would never have started this venture, and I'm already VERY happy with the unit, and look forward to making it even better.

Im in for a black one. Do you still have the local guy willing to swap out the LEDs?
I do have a guy here that can do it, but he's going through a job transition that is likely going to keep him occupied for a reasonable turnaround.

Did you try an app that can change the notification LEDs by any chance? Just curious to see if maybe they are being control via the unit and we could change them...?

They're independent from the unit itself. LED control apps do nothing.

They're microsoldered SMD LED's (0603 I believe) so that's not something for the faint of heart.

Lol true. I'll try to list the tools I'll use to swap them out. I used to redo micro soldering on my Xbox360 CPU lol. It's a pain in a** haha. Otherwise I'll try to find another way to maybe put a filter over it or some kinds of trick... Green isn't an issue for me though :D

I am hoping to order a Hot Air Rework station soon, and if that works out, I'll be able to swap them out for people for $5 plus shipping... Just have too many irons in the fire at the moment.

For future references... I found out that the Rockchip "RKPX3" Is known as Rockchip "RK3188" for our unit. I couldn't find the information in any thread but after looking around the files from the firmware update I was able to confirm it is a "RK3188". [MENTION=21083]PatrickHenninger[/MENTION] It might be useful to add it from the 1st post you made with the pictures... Up to you!

With the order being 5-10 units, I'm assuming they are still honoring $620 each, and that will cover CONUS shipping directly from them, you won't have to wait for me to ship it to you. If he lowers the cost, I will definitely let everyone know before you send me a PayPal.

I place the order through PayPal, and I get PayPal protection. If you want to DOUBLE your protection, add 4% and choose "Pay For Goods or Services," otherwise, send as Friends/Family/Gift.


[MENTION=21083]PatrickHenninger[/MENTION] is it too late to get in on this group?
