I opend the stick and under the tiny hole there's no reset button.

Searching on the web i found a document about the MK809 says the reset can be done by a short circuit to the flash.

I did it but still the Flash tool doesn't detect anything.

is there the possibility that they sold me an MK809 instead of MK809II?
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] boyzie:
If you have bluetooth its a mk809ii,have another look inside i cos as I said before someone found it on the other sode of the stick..

this is mine (enlarged the hole myself for better access).

Hello again,

I may be able to help you but i can'not be held responsable for bricking your device as i can'not tell for sure what your device rely is....

i no its NOT a (mk809ii) so if you do the following you do it at your own risk.

In the photo there are 2 arrows number 1. & 2.

I beleave some devices you can get it to flash mode by shorting the pins out in number 1.arrow

& some devices by shorting the pins out in number 2.arrow the 6th & 7th pin on the nand chip

You do this by connecting HDMI to tv,,now wile shorting the pins either arrow 1. or 2. (YOUR CHOICE as i cannot tell what your device is it may brick your device )

wile shorting the pins connect via the micro usb on your device to your pc usb port you can stop shorting the pins out after 3 or 4 seconds your pc should make a ding sound & it should say installing drivers

Sorry i can not be of more help ,,maybe someone over on freaktab can help you identify your device..Good luck

Sounds like : "should i cut the yellow wire or the red one to dismantle the bomb???" :eek:

Ahahah many thanks blinkone! :D

However i already did the Short circuit on the flash between the 6th and the 7th pin a few days ago.

Then windows 7 tried to install the driver but the flash tool didn't detect the device again.

Should i install the driver manually to have the flash tool say Found RKandroid usb?

Bought a MK809II from eBay, had a few problems with it, tried the reset button at the side of the device and found there was no reset button there, opened the casing and found printed on the PCB MK806, also the reset button was in a downward position on the other side of where the reset hole is on the outer casing. I smell rip off. Does any one have a genuine MK809II dongle? If so could you please tell me, or show me some pictures so I can compare them to my device. Or if any one has any information on why I would have a MK806 PCB inside a MK809II casing.

Also I checked about device in the settings menu and model number is MK806B.

MK809II Fixed

I have managed to find a solution in fixing my MK809II.

Basically my MK809II would not boot up and even my PC would not recognise it but the small blue LED would light up as if it were getting power.

I hope this solution helps other people that have the same issue as I did.

Firstly make sure you have RKBatch Tool running on your computer.

If you look at the first picture I have pointed out two very small soldered dots on the PCB.

All I done was get a flat headed screw driver and set the flat end on top of the dots so that it would give a temporary connection between the two. (see pictures 2&3)

Holding the flat screw driver across the two solder points, at the same time connect the MK809II to your computer, DO NOT USE THE POWER MICRO USB PORT!!, make sure you use the micro USB at the side where the micro SD card slot is.

Straight away the RKBatch Tool will recognize your MK809II. Now it's in flash mode you can flash your stock or preferred custom rom.

Enjoy:good:

New MK809II Finless Rom 1.7a

For those who are looking for another MK809II Rom, there is another Rom released by JDfense on Freaktab.com.

This is built based from the original 4.1.1 Kernel of MK809II incorporated in the Finless 1.7a of Imito.

For more information, please visit the link below.

So after 54 pages of posts about the MK809ii (I've read nearly a third of them),...

Is the general consensus that this device can support receiving smooth 1080p movie streaming over a home network? (of course, given all the tweaks, flashing, ROM installations, etc. etc.)

If so, I would like to purchase this ASAP.

Thanks!

[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] ggregorsch:
I have a MK809II too, and the rom you're talking about works perfect on my device. WiFi and Bluetooth are ok, overall speed increased a little. Antutu states 7150 (vs 6600 on original rom). The only problem is when device enters sleep mode: it never awakes again and I must restart it. But this problem was present also in the original rom and is simply cured by the app called AlwaysAwake (free) which lets your screen go off but keeps the CPU alive (although it gets cooler in this state). Overall, I recommend this rom, I think it's better than the original.

---------- Post added at 02:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 PM ----------

it's hard to give a help with such information..

if you would just like to connect your device to PC normally, would you try the following steps?

1. connect the device to TV or monitor thru HDMI port.

2. connect a microUSB cable to the OTG port (side port near the microSD slot; not the microUSB at the back)

3. connect the other end (USB) to PC.

4. the device should boot up normally.

5. after the device boots up, go to settings->USB connection and check Connect to PC.

by this time, your PC should be able to detect your device...

if you mean that your PC does not recognize your device while in Flash mode, it would be a different story...

Device not discovered by win7 after flashing new ROM

This is an mk809 android miniPC with no reset button (though there is a hole for one but I cracked it open when i didn't feel any resistance)

determined it has a 3066. no antennae wire at all for wifi though the original firmware was able to connect.

It all started great.

1. plugged device into usb port and an extra monitor

2. set [device to mass storage] [debugging to closed] and [usb settings to connected to computer]

3. the rkbatchtool was able to detect device and clicking "switch" got device into flash mode

4. installed the x64 win7 rockusb drivers

5. rebooted both pc and device

6. repeated steps 2 and 3

7 opened the rom flash tool and basically selected all defaults for the package

Finless 1.7a ROM for the mk809IIR2 TV Player -- maybe this rom and kernel are the problem?

8. It boots up smooth and tv says it displays at 1080 .. woot

9. problem - wifi doesn't work. tried to reboot a few times and enable it within both launchers. no dice.

10. no problem i'll flash another package

11. Repeat step 2

12. Problem with step 3. can't get rkbatchtool to see device. There is no reset button on device. I don't know how to get it into flash-mode now

Do I need to short some pins or fiddle with drivers?

I am currently un-rooted and running the stock ROM.

I can see that you mentioned that you have a webcam working with yours.

Can I ask what model of webcam you used?

I borrowed a generic webcam from work to test and it did not work on my MK809II.

I tried it plugged directly into the OTG-MicroUSB converter, and also plugged into a powered USB hub.

Any help would be great as I'd love you use Skype or Google Hangouts on my device.

problems

Hey, I just got my MK809 II and I just don't get it... I was positive this thing could run SD content on XBMC smoothly.. about the HD content I had doubts it'll work well, so I thought that for the HD content I'll just have a DOK and the MK809II will run every content smoothly.

So I got it, and I was pretty much shocked... and very dissapointed. First, XBMC, I used the one which uses MX player and the originally one from XBMC's site.. they're both terrible! SD content, from DOK/plugins (like 1channel/icefilms), not smooth at all!!! HD content on XBMC, much worse.. and the HD content from DOK through the Explorer with MX player not smooth either...

I purchased the MK809 II for one purpose only, just one, to watch videos from 1channel/icefilms. I didn't have problem with HD not smooth, most of my content is SD, but the problem that SD content runs terrible too!!! what can I do?

and there is one more thing, XBMC runs at 1280x676 because of the status bar, when I hide the status bar (pressing the \/ button on status bar), the status bar disappears, but instead a black area replaces it... (black area of 1280x44 pixels..) so what can I do for having XBMC running on 1280x720?

I am using Logitech C110 works without any issue, there are few other which works fine, any camera with driver less configuration should work fine.

Only think you need to make sure is either WebCam or your TV stick is getting power from external source not from from some USB port, because there is not enough power from USB port to power up TV stick and Camera to gather.

I have my TV stick DC USB cable connected to USB HUB which is getting external power, you can use USB Charger as well, then i have 3 port USB HUB/Ethernet Port connected to USB Port on TV Stick which has camera and my receiver for wireless remote and all works fine, hope this helps you to get it working.
