Wifi issue

Using the 4.1 update from Craig's Electronics webpage, and the builds from ADBToolkit.com, I created a rooted version with developer tools enabled: http://www.filedropper.com/cvd601602firmware41-playstore-rooted-alt-wifi

This fixes the devices that have wi-fi issues with the adbtoolkit versions or the uberoid versions.

xbmc not working :(

I realize this is an old thread but, I was reading through all the posts on putting xbmc on this(Craig cvd601). I followed the directions to the tee and when I start xbmc it flashes black and goes back to the home screen?????. Here is the run down on what I did:

d/l ed xbmc neon touch

installed MX player and the codec

D/l ed smanager and created a new script and put it in /data with boot and su

Used root browser to set the permissions to 777 , and still its a no go!.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong? And I hope someone could point me in the right direction :). Oh and it is rooted. When I run the script in either root browser or smanager the output is as follows:

exit value:0

stdout:

null

stderr:

mkdir: can't create directory '/mnt/local/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc': file exists

/data/xbmc.sh:line 4: In: not found

Sorry for the long post , but this has been driving me crazy!!!, I have the same setup as the poster who has success so I don't know what I am doing wrong. Thank you for your time!

Also not sure about 'activating' the script??

I have the Craig TV stick (WM8850). I successfully flashed Uberoid and while in the process of trying to add Kodi (and failing) I decide to reflash Uberoid onto the stick because I wanted a fresh start, I also decided to edit the fwc file believing I could tweak a setting or 2 but now I have a black screen after trying the flash...any suggestions?

Icraig Craig Smart TV stick Uberoid with Kodi Rom Needed!!!!

Hello,

There were a bunch of Craig Smart TV sticks sold recently on Meh.com. They are virtually useless out of the box. If somone can modify the Uberoid Rom flash for this stick which already adds Google Play so that Kodi installs and is fully functional, there will be about 2,000 happy people who bought these. It will need to be idiot proof and easy to install for people like me. It would be a great public service as this is the place to come for help.. Many thanks for the opportunity to post here.

me too! how can run xbmc and fix slow wifi.
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] trasixes74:
I bought the CVD601 from Meh.com, and out of the box it seems glitchy. I'm not sure if I got a defective unit, or if it's just glitchy by nature. With the stock rom, or Uberoid, I get lots of apps force closing, and device reboots. I used a generic WM8850 tablet rom, as a last ditch attempt, and oddly enough I never had a single reboot or force close, but it ran very sluggishly. Perhaps underclocked? I'm not sure at this point. I'm almost ready to toss this thing. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] outz:
if you think the latter rom underclocked it (since you're no longer experiencing reboots or force closes, but the device feels slower) maybe you pop the top cover off the device? there isnt a heatsink on the arm chip, could be getting too warm maybe? i popped mine off and installed a small heatsink on the unit.
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] trasixes74:
Thank you for the reply. I had wondered if it could be a heat issue - I will try your suggestion tonight, and report back.
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] DaveKnowsAll:
Finally had some time this weekend to open my meh purchase. I followed the instructions to get xbmc working on page 3, and it worked for most of my needs: Netflix worked, showbox worked, tvportal worked. I decided to go ahead and load uberoid anyway, and the instructions here were pretty easy to follow. It did take about 30 minutes form the time I registered on techknow.me forums before I received my activation email, so be patient.

If you're intimidated by the need to run a script, don't be. You can just download SH script runner from the play store (you'll have play store access after loading uberoid) and cut and paste the lines from edgardo_0691's post #22 into the window and hit execute. That simple. I'll even put them here so you don't have to look, but do thank edgardo. All it is really doing is creating a shortcut directory, but it works!

#!/system/bin/sh

mount -o remount,rw /

mkdir /mnt/local/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc

ln -s /mnt/local/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc /.xbmc

mount -o remount,ro /

With uberoid and the script, I can get . , but it would fail when starting a video stream unless I used an old XAF version ( wololo's version link) -- as always, don't click the ads; download from wololo.net link in the middle of the page. I did download mx player, but I never had to set up the external player (playercorefactory.xml) file and it looks to be playing everything just fine from within xbmc. BUT most of the plugins in that old build are broken. Head on over to tavaddons.ag and follow the instructions to load fusion, and then most will work, but not all (unfortunately, primewire/onechannel needs a newer version of kodi to work, but genesis and others still function. I suspect that we could load the latest versions of xbmc as long as we use an external player like mx player....I'll get to that maybe next weekend. In the past, I have had problems with some of the live sport streams running correctly when I was using an external player, but i'll check it out and report back.

I do agree with poorchase that the colors don't seem to be great on this build -- there is a ton of dithering in the box covers in xbmc, but then the movie files seem to look fine in 720p. I have it in a 1080 tv, and the stick gives the option to output 1080, but I couldn't see any difference when I flipped it back and forth. I think poorchase is right there as well. On uberoid, the lastest version of netflix works, watchespn works, and show does showbox, so I am still happy. Splashtop2 did a good job of casting my pc screen, as did chrome desktop remote viewer. Using a 2 ft usb extension I had in a drawer, I can use the mouse and keyboard that it comes with just fine and still get 16Mb/s upload and 30 Mb/s download on wifi.

Overall, if you are one of the meh purchasers, follow the instructions for uberoid and xbmc, use a usb extension cable, and you definitely got your money's worth and then some!

HDMI ouput to DVI-D monitor

I had the same or a similar issue and found that if I left it unconnected from the the display for say 10 secounds (I don't recall what the time was actually but under a minute certainly) during bootup it was fine. So connect power, wait 10 secounds, connect to display via HDMI to DVI converter, worked for me. Since I leave it on all the time and turning on and off the display has no impact while it is running, I don't need to do this that often. Don't recall if I tried leaving the display off during initial bootup. I think I may have and it didn't work but I'm not certain.

Only thing I miss with the HDMI to DVI converter I have is the sound. Now if I could transfer the sound to my phone and plug in external speakers I would be all set. Wonder if there is an app for that. Some sort of sound mirroring.

Working great so far in Uberoid.

Only problem right now is that every time I restart the device or put to sleep/wake up, it enables tethering and disables wi-fi. Is there a way to completely disable/remove tethering in Uberoid or set wifi as the default state?

Update: This is a feature of AirShow. In the AirShow settings there's an option to auto-enable tethering (checked by default).
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] DaveKnowsAll:
I use greenify to clear things up, which may have had an effect, but my results on multiple runs were

much

better than yours for Uberoid for the CPU and total scores, which aligns to my general impression that this ROM is snappier than the stock.

My results:

Total: 1039

Cpu: 1920

Mem: 1224

I/O: 765

2D: 163

3D: 1136
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] Theraze:
Verified that this works with Kodi 14.1, and assume that it will work with 14.2 as well, but my Kodi install is currently running (slowly) through the latest set of TVMC Android Config Wizard tweaks.

#!/system/bin/sh

mount -o remount,rw /

mkdir /mnt/local/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi

ln -s /mnt/local/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi /.kodi

mount -o remount,ro /

Basically, the app name changed from org.xbmc.xbmc to org.xbmc.kodi and the folder inside files changed its name as well. Unfortunately 14.2 will likely be the last Kodi for us, since 15 requires Kitkat, but... at least we can get 14 running on this little box, which is better than I'd expected.

Available again at Ollies

If you have an Ollies Bargain Outlet near you they have the cvd601 (just mouse) version for $12.99.

My local store had at least 2 dozen of them. The one I bought has a date code of June 2013.

I may go back a pick up another one just for fun. Downloading the replacement firmware right now.

Uberoid 3.1

Since the TechKnow forum is not allowing new members, it can be difficult to find Uberoid. The only place I have found that still has Uberoid 3.1 available is here:

mega.co.nz/#!mAxkQDxK!OWYI3Qke1EX3yv_o_KrqQUNuTg9j9xqQ3OdIZ65sMWA

The Analyzer referred to in the instructions is the TechKnow.ToolKit

It will tell you the firmware you need to use is TVDongle_8277-AiHua

NOTE: Included in the zip file is a directory that starts with [TOOL]Trojan. DO NOT run any files in that directory, as it is indeed a Trojan/virus . So long as you don't run any of the files in that directory, it cannot effect your computer. Why they have that in there I have no idea.

On a side note, I couldn't work out why it was working on one TV but not another. I found that if you try to use the USB extension for power, it will lock up on an empty (or half empty) jellybean jar during boot. If the power cord isn't long enough you will need to plug the power adaptor into an extension cord or buy a longer USB cable. Or see below.

If your TV has a USB port, you can probably power it from there without needing to use the power supply at all. It works fine that way on my Vizio, but not on my Emerson.

Use the USB extension cord if you intend to use the wireless mouse that it comes with, otherwise you will get very slow wifi speeds. Ideally use a wired mouse and keyboard.
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] Takenover83:
Yep, that's where I got mine from. The device is pretty slow when I tested Kodi 14.2 though. Plex played fine.
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] vynash:
What do you do if you cannot get it to boot from the SD card? I reformatted the card, not quickly, and safely removed it. Then unplugged my CVD602, says in device info it's actually a 601, dropped in the card, and booted it up. It is not going to the card, only to the desktop. Any thoughts?
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] sirdashadow:
Did you format as FAT32 and not just plain FAT? If you have a small (2GB) sdcard I noticed those are the two options when you try this on windows, so that may be the problem...

---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 PM ----------

Edit: well son of a gun, had the same problem. Unplugging the power, ejecting the card and push it back and plugging it back should fix the problem. It should immediately go to the "Uberoid 4.1 upgrading" screen if you grab the uberoid from the mega website.
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] codeson:
I have the CVD602 (not the 601). Can anyone confirm that It's safe to try uberoid in the 602 variant?

Craig removed the original ROM image from Its web site, all links posted to It are broken now so If I screw things there is no way to recover, other than go dangerous stress level and start trying ROM after ROM until finding one that at least gets to the desktop (I know It's not called desktop in Android, you know what I mean).

Update: I confirm this ROM is good for the 602 variant. There is a gotcha and I think the 601 is no exception. The original ROM had a soft power button that can be used to properly turn off the device. Uberoid, being not specific for this device, doesn't have such button. The device has no physical power button. The only way is to install an app such as Shutdown that acts as a soft power button, the problem is that when you turn off that way the device automatically turns on a second later. I have tried many apps like Shutdown but none of them can make this device stay turned off.

[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] codeson:
This ROM works for this device. First be sure that we are speaking about the same device, then that you did the file rename step. Finally run a chkdsk on your SDCard, you can use a sdcard reader to mount the sd card in Windows or any device that mount the card as mass storage (no MTP or other method of sharing the sd card). SD Cards are cheap, if nothing works just buy another one and retry the flash before giving up on this device. It's good device, good CPU and GPU power for what it costs, but its original ROM is crap, I don't have evidence but I suspect Its designed to fail in time, as the unofficial ROM just works. I'm still using it and I'm very happy with it.

still playing with the stick... Craig tv stick I mean

I know this is an old thread but hey these things are still around and fun to play with.

I purchased one of these from my local Ollies. I am very new to the idea of changing ROMs on android and trying to understand all of it, I do get a little overwhelmed. I have read every post in this thread and thought that this might be fun to try to upgrade the ROM. I did find a site that had the WM8860 uberoid universal ROM still up for downloading and followed the steps on post #53 (I think that was the post). Well it did work, one hiccup though, like with a few others when it booted back up, the wifi seems to just sit there and do nothing. I gave it some time powered off, then re flashed, then downloaded the ROM again and repeated. Reset the unit and tried all steps again. I will continue to repeat this in hopes that if the download was corrupted I will get a good copy at some point. Now if anyone has some fresh ideas for me or help I will try not to "gush" too much about it. :D

thanks
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] codeson:
Mine doesn't do that and all wifi problems got solved and remains solved when I flashed it with uberoid. I think yours, and others that didn't get fixed, may have a real damage in the wifi hardware not just a firmware problem.
[Android Stick & Console AllWinner based Computers] 1bloodstone:
Thank you. I was thinking the same unfortunately. I guess I will try to get the original firmware and flash it back. The wifi did work with that, not well mind you but it worked kinda. If the damage is hardware then I have a new paperweight lol.
