I will interpret the response as "It is coming, and will be released when ready", which is a perfect response for me. It will be really nice to get the bluetooth wireless keyboard working with the Xios.

Hi aasoror for fun I flashed my box with this last night, and it went well, but I lost all my apps...is there a way to flash to the default factory GB release that has all the apps, and then do the 78MB GB Auguest update to GB-080312 and keep the app package? Maybe I did the upgrade the wrong way..to keep the apps package for gb?

Well people were complaining about the "bloatware" so I thought to make this a "light" release.
The way to go around this is to backup your apps first using Titanium backup then restore everything after the upgrade (thats how you get your settings back).
Easiest way if you don't to hunt for the apps is to revert back to the earlier GB, then do the titanium backup then re-upgrade.

DTS/DD/DTS-MA Core passthrough is supported.
Just go to Settings -> Display -> Audio -> RAW.

In this new firmware when you open any video the controls are going off the screen. The other Android applications are within the limits of the display screen but for some reason the standard mediaplayer is "bigger" than the rest of the screens. It's almost like the Display Position setting (where you shrink the display size) is not affecting the mediaplayer.

Is anyone else able to reproduce this? I'm using the default 720p configuration.
