thanks for your work HellCatDroid!

I wrote user "der_tom" at the official forums to post here and that you're account there is locked so you can't read & respond to PMs over there.

Also about the problem with the 32GB cards - user "der_tom" told me over at the official forums (via PN) that he ran into the same problem with his 8GB Class10 card.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Fixed the no-boot-after-format issue for the 32GB SD card. *MAYBE* for the 8G one too, however the userdata partition size make so no sense :-\

Well anyways, some one with a 8G SD please try, I don't have any so I can't.

Can't remove micro-sd

I'd like to play around with the sd card, but I can't get it out of the TizzBird N1. It has some kind of rubbery thing inside the micr-sd slot. I tried pushing it in but it won't pop out. Any help would be much appreciated.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaefert:
be careful with it. I reached it by opening up the the whole plastic casing, I think others pulled out the rubber protection with a pincette or something. And beware: No matter how you do it, you loose your warranty by doing so.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzuijlek:
I though it was supposed to be removable :laugh:

I got it out by opening the device, without the rubber protection is pretty easy to remove and put back in.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaefert:
well, It seems to me as if there was a misunderstanding between the designers and the developers and to fix their problems they put a rubber thingy there to prevent users to pull the sd-card, and the support (in their forum) will tell you that under no circumstances you should ever try to get it out. sadly they did not tell this to (all) of their marketing people, and some places state(d) that this device has a removeable micro-sd-card.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzuijlek:
I must have broken my original sd-card when trying to remove is. I've used the scripts to make a new 8GB sd card.

It works, but I often get *** is not responding with the options wait and ok. If I put the sd-card in my linux machine it mounts a few partitions, but gparted sees no partitions at all!

remote control config

hey everyone,

i really appreciate your work which enabled me to root the device! thanks :) now i want to meddle with the remote control commands which are invoked when buttons are pressed.

is there some kind of config file where i could change the commands and thus assign the buttons with new commands.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Which one, system or data?

In either case, yes, should be possible but tedious as all following partitions would need be updated as well (i.e. moved to the back to make room for the space supposed to be used be the grown partition).

Also there was a limit in Android for 2GB max size of the data partition but IIRC that restriction doesn't apply to 4.0+ anymore.

I doubt it's just simple config file editing, but maybe you'll be lucky.

But with no one actually looking into this, we'll never know - we need more community (members) :D

Hola for Netflix problem

I bought the Tizzbird N1 and i'm quite happy with it. I installed the Netflix app from the Play store. (search youtube on play store and tizzbird n1 )

Anyway, I don't want crappy Dutch content on Netflix but i want to use Hola unblocker to get the US content. It works on my unrooted S3 through VPN autoconfig but not on my Tizzbird N1 through VPN autoconfig.

Does anyone have a clue how to fix this?

the wifi performance of the stock firmware is pretty bad, it doesn't get any connection when the router is some metres away... does anyone know how to fix this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaefert:
well, I think this is a hardware issue, if you look for the wifi antenna in this device you will find a small wire loop that is about 1mm³ in size.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChicaneBT:
Do you guys think it's possible to compile a Realtek USB adapter driver for this stick? For example the RTL8192CU which is commonly used in fairly cheap WLAN adapters. I would like to add a USB WLAN adapter as a replacement for the stock wifi, same reason as most of you because it doesn't preform as good as an A-brand wifi connection.

I have found some sources which point to the possibility to use a non-stock compiled driver. Root access is needed to change some files. This also goes for ethernet adapters, but I would like to use a WLAN adapter.: http://www.armtvtech.com/armtvtechforum/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=231&start=230 The first part is compiling the driver the correct way and the second part is getting the compiled driver to work on the device. As the previous link shows both parts are possible at least on a MK808 HDMI stick. I have searched Google quite a lot for TCC8925 devices. The most active community seems to be for the CX-01 stick which is based on the same SoC as the TizzBird N1.

I would like to try it myself but I have no knowledge of compiling or Linux and I don't have a computer which has the resources to run a Virtual Machine.

What do you need? I think after reading:

- Linux distro

- A cross compiler (maybe ARM toolchain ?)

- The 3.0.8-tcc kernel: https://github.com/olexiyt/telechips-linux and http://www.cnx-software.com/2012/07...hips-tcc8925-mini-pcs-cx-01-z900-tizzbird-n1/

- Realtek drivers 8192CU: http://www.realtek.com.tw/DOWNLOADS...=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false

Drivers for ethernet adapters and commands to load them:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaefert:
I would have liked to use an USB-Ethernet adapter, but since this whole cross-compiling stuff and after that getting the driver to really work on the device is too much work I've just let it go.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChicaneBT:
The compiled USB ethernet adapter drivers are in the tar.gz file linked in my post. They are compiled with the 3.0.8-tcc kernel and should work on the TizzBird N1 which also uses the 3.0.8-tcc kernel. There are also instructions in the link how to get the ethernet adapter working.

Please help the noob....

Hello everyone,

I really like the development on the Tizzbird N1.

Like many others I think 4GB is a bit small. I have bought a fast rw 32 GB sd card. I tried the provided scripts, but something doesn't work for me.

This is what I do:

Unpack and copy the files to my home dir on my Ubuntu system.

Become Root with sudo . su - l

Check executable rights on the scripts (they are green and usable).

execute script: ./init-blank-sd.sh /dev/sdb1

This is the outcome:

Writing image to /dev/sdb1 - this will take a while.... DONE

TizzBird N1 Bootloader Transfer

using device to write: /dev/sdb1

assumed reported partition blocksize: 1024 bytes

Extracting bootloader from original dump, offset=7744012.... DONE

Writing bootloader to /dev/sdb1, offset=.... DONE

Patching size of userdata partition...../patch-userdata-size.sh: line 12: [: -ge: unary operator expected

./patch-userdata-size.sh: line 16: [: -ge: unary operator expected

./patch-userdata-size.sh: line 20: [: -ge: unary operator expected

DONE

What am I doing wrong here? Didn't I read carefully enough? Should I create the partitions on the stick prior to executing the script?

Please advise what to do next?

:confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Several thing wrong with the call of the script.

First you need pass the device, not a partition of the device, i.e. give it "sdb" as parameter, not "sdb1" (sdb1 is "the 1st partition on sdb")

Then, as (hopefully :confused: ) shown in the example in the readme, only the actual devicename, not the full path, i.e. just the "sdb", not "/dev/sdb".

So a proper call would look like this:

./init-blank-sd.sh sdb

Hope this solves it :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gelflingeh:
Thanks for the quick response!

I got the following:

root@ubuntu:/home/mrtsxr01/tizz# ./init-blank-sd.sh sdb

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzuijlek:
I got a similar error, I looked at the scripts and ran some steps by hand. Also when it fails you need to start fresh, so remove everything and unpack the tar.gz again.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Do you have "unzip" installed?

Type "unzip" at a command prompt and see what happens.

The script can't load the bootloader, likely because it already failed to unpack the update.

(You did copy the 3.20 FW update as "update.zip" into the scripts directory as described in the readme?)

Where does the script make the tmp dir? I cannot see this dir in my tizz directory?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Hm, weird, for some reason it can't find the bootloader from the update.

Try unzipping the update into tmp/ in the scripts dir manually before running the script....

And no, you'll see no files on the SD.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gelflingeh:
I made a dir tmp. In the dir now is a file named TizzBird_N1G_update_GMS_V3_20_13072719.tzbird. Should I rename it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
OH!

I see the problem!

It's that double zipped download from the TizzBird page!

Here's what to try:

Unzip the downloaded ZIP, rename the ".tzbird" file to "update.zip" and place THAT into the scripts folder, then run the script.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gelflingeh:
Thanks!

I will try this evening, when i'm home. I'll let you know.

Edit: it is working for 2 hours now.... maybe something is wrong with my SD.

help reseting a non responsive Tizzbird N1

hi guys,

you seem to know your way around this device, so I want to see if you can help with the following:

my tizzbird N1 wil not show it's image on the TV (or other devices)

it worked fine, untill I tried to use an HDMI splitter as an HDMI expention line, and it seems like it casued some damage. Now the TV indicates "mode not supported"

it is clear that the Tizzbird is turning on, and the TV knows the difference between when it is connected or not, but it just wont show the imgge.

After this happend, I realised something similar once happend, and at the time, I reset the device (beamer) by pushing a special "reset button" and it went right back to working fine (this would be a reset to factory settings).

But, how do I reset the tizzbird without seeing what I'm doing on a TV image. is there some secret procedure to doing this?

any ideas or solutions would be greatly appreciated

full ethernet support

I managed to install a MCS7830 chipset based USB2LAN adapter on my N1. Unfortunately some apps which don't have native access but rely on the ConnectivityManager within the Android framework won't recognize the ethernet (eth0) connection and thus don't work. I read about a patch for the ConnectivityManager which enables it to present ethernet devices to apps as well, but I'm not able to compile a kernel and apply that patch.

It'd be great if anyone could compile the current kernel with the ethernet patch and provide it :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaefert:
Hello everyone!

Long time since last post here. I just reactivated my Tizzbird N1, and while doing so used HellcatDroid's scripts to get an 16GB Micro-SD card running.

Sadly for me at least this time over it did not work as described in the HellDroid's readme file.

The Steps I did:

sudo bash dump-original-card.sh sde

which printed this output (has an I/O error in it, ohoh..)

Dumping sde to tizzbird.bin - this will take a while....
dd: reading ‘/dev/sde’: Input/output error
46507+1 records in
46507+1 records out
3047890944 bytes (3,0 GB) copied, 178,183 s, 17,1 MB/s
DONE

sudo bash write-new-card.sh sde

with a new card - new card sadly was not bootable..

sudo ./init-blank-sd.sh sde

with this I got the new sd-card to boot, but only into recovery, and it seems you need the original remote control to control the recovery (which I can't find anymore) - usb-mouse & keyboard didn't work.

sudo dd if=my_tizzbird.bin of=/dev/sde bs=65536

with this is overwrote the first 3GB of my 16GB sdcard which got me my system back.

After reformatting the internal storage from the android settings, the new space is usable now :)

Problem with original Firmware Update TizzBird stick n1

hi, my name is Jhonatan.

I do not know if I should introduce myself, in some forum thread.

I just bought a stick TizzBird n1:

On the official website there was an update for my model and I foolishly made a firmware update, putting it in the SD partition, not in the TF card or USB stick.

Now each time you reboot, will show up a completely green droid standing in the center on a black background, and remains locked, he could not in any way, with the remote control, to enter Recovery Mode, or Safe Mode.

I tried to insert the update again, renamed "update.zip" in both the TF Card and in a connected USB key, but I can not reset it.

How can I recover?

can I upload the firmware from USB port connected to PC?

I have a Galaxy Player 4.2 which I received yesterday. On connecting to the PC drivers were installed but on opening WMP 12 it appeared for a few seconds but then an error message came up to say cannot synch with device. Since then with player USB Settings on Media Player or Mass Storage - the player is not recognised or cannot be opened on the PC.

The player did connect with Kies once - but on a second try it does not connect so no music on the player!

The drivers are present to Driver Manager - Samsung YP-G11 USB Device and USB Card Device althhough they both say the device is not connected. I have used both new and old USB cables - and the player charges OK on the PC with both.

Any assistance you can give would be great - many thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KannibalKorp:
So, is it set to Kies mode, Or mass storage?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] richcharles130:
Ok thanks - I uninstalled Samsung drivers - plus in Player and get message 'Hardware ID missing windows cannot identify the device. So I search Google and a message on your website (hurray) says to take battry out of player and re-boot.

I do this and Player connects and drivers install.

When in 'Media Player' mode it does NOT connect to WMP 12 - teh player appears in the left hand list for 5 seconds then diappears.

BUT when in 'Mass Storage' mode and you click for USB Storage it does connect to WMP and works fine. Splendid!

With Kies it will NOT connect - the PC searches for a CDC Serial Driver but cannot find it - but then maybe I don't really need Kies.

Overall am now very pleased with the Player - the ease of use is goodeven for me - and the sound is so much batter than my old Sansa Fuze which died last week. Really pleased after all - it has 32GB memory good battery life and it is not an ipod.

Odd about the 'Media Player' thing but at least the thing is working now.

Thanks for the advice in your website - keep up the good work it is needed!
