Updating the Pipo M9

I tried Pipo-M9-Pro-RileyROM-2-7-KitKat 2.7.2 on my Pipo M9. It looks good and is much faster than the Finless Jellybean ROM, but it has a battery problem and more importantly Linuxdeploy fails with permissioning errors. This is a KitKat issue I believe. Other minor issues:
Screen rotation:

It's a problem with occurs mostly when using the stock launcher. If you use another like Nova or Apex, then the problem don't exist.

GPS:

I do sync time with NTPSync before trying the first time, maybe that's the trick.

So back to JellyBean, not with the Finless ROM this time but Pipo-M9-Pro-RileyROM-2-7-Jellybean. Fast and clean, the only gripe is the slow boot time.
