Sorry then, I didn't know that
Anyway, if I remember well I was capable to root my OPi Zero using this method using H3Droid version 1.2.5 (it was actually almost a month ago), so if adb will get fixed in a later version, you should be able to root your device with the KingoRoot PC app then.

We could also use the recovery flashable SuperSU zip to get root access, but as I know there is no way to flash .zip files in H3Droid (or any H3-based Android system) without having root already (because then we should have tried FlashFire, but it also needs root).

So it looks like we have to wait this time until USB adb mode gets fixed, or use an older version to get root access inside the system.

hello all.

Orange One have the same "rescue mode" + power button  problem, i think devs must look for other way to enter in rescue mode.

Anyway not work for me, my orange one boot, but get stuck in a screen with four vertical strips (red,greenm, blue,yellow...)

that screen hide possible errors

led status: when load that screen switch from red to green (steady) .
red never blink

Best kodi support for h3droid is offered by SPMC ( a fork of kodi from a team member ) which can use older API levels.please report if you have crashs while playing media on 512 MB boards .

And sorry but we don't have orange pi one / zero  to do advanced testing unless somebody help us for those boards ...
Please vote here for Boards support .

will check SPMC. thanks

I going to need add a fan to the One, too hot only booting

Hey All!

First off, we wanted to take a moment and mention that H3Droid was mentioned today on CNX Software blog and want to thank them for their support!

We know it has been a while since we posted an update here but there has been a lot of development work going into version 1.2.8!

We plan to be releasing 1.2.8 with-in the next 24-48 hours so stay tuned!

Some of the updates you can expect in version 1.2.8:
- removed sunxi-ir-rx.ko from autoloading
- added logitech c270 usb webcam
- installer: added dex cache purge to update path
- installer: gservices/playstore updates are disabled by default
- added: chat, pppd, pppoe
- h3resc: added gpm(mouse), nano, mc/mcedit, ldd, iozone, missing terminals, micropython, blktrace, gnu ddrescue
- removed eth from uboots
- fixed red led on boards with emmc
- fixed rc.local not being run bug introduced in 1.2.7
- bootmenu: removed powerkey-to-h3resc, added usb kb in bt (space) to boot to h3resc
- installer: batch mode, preparing for fel-installer interaction
- beta testing new screen resolutions (only 480p works reliably right now)
- installer: copy rc.local if found
- added kexec to kernel
- installer: requires squashfs to be available
- image_installer (H3ii): write to card, then make it autoinstall on device. you NEED to select fex/uboot on first h3resc boot

We will finally be introducing our Image Installer (H3ii) which will help all of you Windows and Mac users to install H3Droid finally!  With H3ii all you will have to do is burn the image using dd/etcher/Win32Diskimager to your SDcard and then boot, the installer runs automatically on first boot and allows you to install directly from the card!

H3ii is only one of our major updates in the works, we are also still working on the FEL installer and we still urge you to go and vote!

Thanks to all of you, we are currently at 934 downloads and climbing!      

As always, please feel free to provide feedback here on the forum, on our feedback form or come chat with us on IRC in #H3Droid on Freenode!

Thanks again to everyone who has provided their time and support to H3Droid!

If you LIKE or LOVE H3Droid and want to give back but don't have the time to help, donate to our developers!

Cheers!
