Caveats: System crashes frequently on starting Apps, UI navigation, etc. When it crashes and resets, the ethernet does not work anymore.
Any idea when we'l reach a point stable enough to keep the device as always-on? Need a 4k player ASAP!
Pretty sure the first 2 times I burnt the images they both started up fine and I had ethernet activity but they were plagued with performance issues. This burn is semi stable at least for ethernet, I still get SystemUI and Launcher3 crashes all the time, usually when closing apps or trying to pull down the notification bar while in an app. Usually when I lose ethernet activity all I have to do is power cycle and it's back up and running.
Since this is so new I doubt they have a ton of Android developers working on this right now but I wouldn't count on a quick fix unfortunately. I'm not in a huge rush because I just got this to tinker with. At this point I'm more interested in the Remix OS hopefully that get that fixed for us 2GB boards.
