Ermmm..I know it's your first post and all, but that's what I've been saying in this thread/
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Con_Sole:
:o

Sorry... For some reason I remembered that you guys are stucked somewhere with rooting... Also I would attach the parameter file link next to the rom in first post, so you could easily set up how much space do you give for apps and such. Again sorry for the inconvenient post, to my excuse I could say I was playing through the night with this little stick, and with few hours of sleep my memory is not functioning pretty well. :D
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lucid:
You seem to have e helpful attitude, and that is what is most appreciated here. Please....don't be sorry.

Current status is that we can at least install a Custom ROM that is fast, and rooted.

There are more hurdles to take :

1 - touchscreen kernel , currently this kernel from neomode hybrid 1.7 and the original do not support it. Even when putting IDC files in.

2 - GameLoft games won't work.

3 - cannot install Lync, Whatsapp....

for the rest... this device "Rocks" .. and yes, pun intended
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] xsigik:
Custom ROM NHR_17_20131012 with kernel attached in the first post works :) And about touchscreen etc - I think that it will be difficult to solve without having this device.

ot: are there any android sticks that you can install any google apks or sideload apks from?

i need specs: quadcore, 1080p wireless streaming, wired ethernet, bluetooth, fast stable wifi, usb3.0, microSD slot

is there such a device? please PM me thanks!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lucid:
Nice ROM eh ? Still some issues but generally very much ok. Good work Neomode from www.freaktab.de

About TOUCHSCREEN ,

I think I will try and flash Omegamoon kernel, see if will work with neomode rom, otherwise flash omegamoon ROM.

The thing is, I did the chmod commands on the .idc files that I created. However lsusb doesn;t even fire anything.

So thats why I think it's a kernel issue.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lucid:
Sideloading APK and using playstore is no problem on any of the device, we just want (and have) Root and Custom ROM.

This thread is about that,

I've found this a couple of minutes ago: http://blog.geekbuying.com/index.ph...9-quad-core-tv-sticks-is-coming/#.Umz4aq23PFo

Should be a working CWM for our devices. Hopefully, the CX-919 is the same as found here earlier in the thread.

Hi Lucid,

I'm a newbie here first time rooting - shame on me being an eng, I should have started 2 android devices ago.

Anyway, I followed the steps on your first post, which seemed straight forward...

Is it good for mine?

Hi guys,

I'm writing from Italy. Some days ago I've received my mk809III. It is very solw, needs a lot of minuts to update apps from play store, can't load video from youtube and surf on the web is quite impossible.

I am looking for a new ROM to try to solve my problems.

My mk809III has the realtek rtl8188etv wifi chip, and I would like to know if I can flash this ROM. I would like to use this android mini pc for internet, video and some games.

Do you think I can solve my problems?

Thank you all!!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] xsigik:
On the boot screen or did you have a blank screen without signal?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lucid:
The problem might be that the device has some other wifi chip then 6210AP

try and flash the ROM without changing the kernel image file.

Otherwise, you should be able to flash the Original Rom and be back in business.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jonajuna:
Flashed this rom with the replacement kernel.

Wifi is now flakey even though it's sat on top of the router. Just keeps dropping out.

Play store is hit and miss

Video performance in xbmc is worse than the stock rom. Have tried all the variations from frodo to xaf to Gotham. With and without ext player (mx player).

ext sd card, while it shows up and I can read and write to it, doesn't come as an option for app2sd but does (finally) default for spotify cache.

currently seeking the stock rom to re-compare against.

Anyone have other thoughts about my woes?

hi guys, i just got my mk809 iii stick

how do i check whether my stick is ROOTED

and if it is rooted.. any specific apps i need to install to make my stick even better?

i still new to android system.. thanks
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lucid:
That is odd... do you have the 6210AP chip (open your device to see it) ??

I've flashed a couple of different sticks from different manufacturers, it keeps working.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lucid:
If you are new to Android or computer and hacking like this in general, I would hightly recommend you

read up first , in the android general section. In short, you don't need root to make you system faster unless you want to overclock.

You do might want to flash a new ROM anyway, as the chefs make everything just better.

To flash, you need to read flash instructions from link in first post.

I'd find a friend who's done such things, and flash it together first time.

Phone Remote that uses Gyro?

Don't want to waste more money on a airmouse or similar remote control, especially when I have a phone with a gyroscope. So my question is this, are there any android apps that would control this device by using a phone's internal gyro sensor? I've spent the last hour looking for such an app, but they all tend to control windows/mac devices, not other android devices. If anyone is aware of an android app that can control another android device by using a gyro, I would love to hear about it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Con_Sole:
Use rkremote app from here: sendspace com/pro/dl/oo37b6 ( . after sendspace is missing 'coz I heaven't reached 10 posts so I cannot post a link) it does not use your gyro instead you can use your touch screen for controlling the pointer but you have to be on the same network. If you already knew that sorry. BTW I have airmouse and it worth every penny.

Wifi issue

I received my MK809 III and my wifi is very weak. I bought it because I need a mini PC who can read video from my DLNa server.

Is it a driver issue or is it the chip for the wifi ? Does anyone have found a solution for this problem ? If I root and try other roms, will I have the same problem ?

Thanks for your help
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lucid:
The wifi chip seems to be weak in many devices. There's two versions, I forgot the numbers but they

are in the thread. There are users who have opened the stick, drilled a small hole for the antenna, and

have antenna now dangling out the side.

I put mine close to the wifi station.That helped.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ilocans:
The stick is close to the wifi router 5m max. I will check the version of the wifi chip. Does anyone has a procedure for the antenna ? I am not good enough to do this by myself without some help.

Else I tried to update the stick by inserting the usb cable and pressing the button at the same time. It does not seems to work. I know I press the button I feel it, but nothing happen. Does anyone has the same problem ?

Thanks for your help.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] theschnohr:
USB not detected

you have to

1. press button and HOOOLD

2. attach USB cable - without releasing the boutton

3. when windows see the device you can release the button.

so you cant apply any 5 V power before this procedure is due.

If windows does not rekognize ANY device - I dont know what to do.

If it recognizes something - and needs driver - you should use the appropriate driver in the zip file.

If it DOES recognize something - and it takes a very long time before it does - you have a problem that can be solved with a tool (restore).

Newbee myself - had the same problems.

BTW :

Any R-BOX (809mkiii 6210AP wifi) kernel.img with videofix and OC (with CPU = stock)? Found one - but had wrong wifi...... or else I have to cook myself... (not easy without a Linux machine or knowledge...)

Video stutters with all the ROMS so far... playing MP4 files

corrected the wifi to 6210AP

I havent even tested them yet, but why not, I can look for some of the newest models, and post the specs and any testing results to share.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bartvincke:
Fyi:

Anyone owning this device with the ap6210 wireless chip ( all Models as october ) should install neomode 1.9a ROM

Performance increases immensely.

This ROM includes spmclibmedia, basically a full xbmc version with hw acceleration ( working ! )

Even 1080p runs smoothly now.

The ROM can be found over at freaktab
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bundys:
Hmm, for some reason I thought rkremote would use my gyro, but I think you might be right. I already have an app that can use the touchscreen to control my mk, but I was really looking for an app that would use the gyro so that I wouldn't have to spend any more money on basically the same functionality as an airmouse (plus the added bonus of not having even more devices on my coffee table). Thanks for your help, but I'm completely amazed that with all the phones out there with gyros, no one has written an app to use it as a remote.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] rhtizzy:
The process is well described and there re a few handy tools that will help when things go wrong, I'll add the links asap. For now I can say the correct driver is the first crucial step. Getting that wrong negates all further efforts so make sure of it. Once that's done, put a pin in the tiny upgrade hole on the device until you feel it click the hidden button inside, only then connect the usb cable while holding the pin on the button. HDMI does not need to be connected. If you have the upgrade tool running when you connect USB, it's device indicator will change to green.

If any of you might help me I would really appreciate it!

Txs in advance!

EDIT: After 2 failed attempts (with a script that didn't work), 3rd time was the charm:)

Googled "root 3188.rar" and downloaded the tool (root.bat) that got the job done!

First I had to connect on both mini usb to figure out wich one would be detected by the PC to get the drivers.

The script got it rebooting automatically 3 times,after wich... SU was IN!

I followed your instructions, the rom have been installed at first attempt. The device rebooted and initial configuration wizard (green screen) started.

But there is a problem: the screen flichers!! Every 3 seconds there is a disconnection/reconnection of hdmi. On my Dell monitor this appears as a random flick on the screen, while on Samsung TV the screen becomes black for one second. The unit works normally: I can run all the wizard and go through the menu. I tried to change the resolution but didn't work...

Tried with both original kernel.img and yours.. same effect :( !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still can't post links here. Go to Youtube and look for "Neomode hybrid mk809 iii flickering", it's a 10s video.

Look at the row "Or, skip it and to into.. " at 00:05 sec, you'll see the flickering...

MK809III

Hi,

I purchased an MK809III. The specs say it has 2 GB of DDR3 RAM and 8 GB of NAND flash.

From the storage status screen, I can see that I have about 1.7 GB of free space on the DDR3 RAM out of a total of 2 GB. That makes sense to me when I sum up the size of applications stored on RAM.

On the other hand the unit reports that only a couple of applications are stored on flash which sum up to some 800 MB. But the unit reports that only 4.29 GB are available. I am aware that these units can come with 4 GB or 8 GB of NAND Flash but the seller insists this is an 8 GB device.

Could you please enlighten me on this?

Thanks.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ilyadan:
Please note the following:

1) RAM is volatile memory and it will not store any programs. It will be used by the OS (Android) and other applications. It's necessary for any application functioning. Having 1.7GB free RAM is great and means you have not much widgets and programs running at current time.

2) Flash is the non-volatile memory that is used to store the OS and other applications (same as SD card or hard drive in PC). When you have 8GB of flash space, it means that you will have 7.2 GB available for OS and applications (because it's 8000000000 bytes). The OS and the installed apps take some space (about 1.5-2GB) leaving you whatever is left of it.

On the bright side you can add SD card to this device and have much more storage space.

Hope I could be helpful. :o

Another way to root device

Hello,

I recently bought a MK809II, but the micro-USB port side was very weak and when I plugged something, it broke.

I was in a shop repairing equipment and welded the port, however, although the device connect, the computer says “Unknown USB Device” and “device malfunction…”.

I wanted your help, was whether is there any other way to make a root without being necessary to connect the micro-USB port side (the OTG is power only and does not transfer data).

I needed to make the root to the equipment, but I've done several searches and can't find a way, without using this micro-USB port.

Someone can help me, please?

So much thank you,
