Hello there!

I hope some of you could help me a bit! Yesterday I got a brand new MK809IV Android Mini PC

I wanted to install DroidMote Server from play store, but it required root. I tried to go to UGOOS.net and download their rooted version to their MK809IV (They don't look a like, but they had same model number).

It then bricked and after trying 20+ .img-files, I finally found one that could bring me the device back!

But now I can't turn on wifi or bluetooth - It says it does, but it doesn't! :'(

Can someone help me find the original 4.2.2. firmware for my device? I've found some pictures of it:

Picture 1:

Picture 2:

Picture 3:

Picture 4:

If anybody has a method or can be at any help.. I'm willing to do anything :(

I didnt bricked my device. But since kitkat isnt stable on mk809iv, and somehow the device asked me for a password on boot that i didnt create. I managed to downgrade to Android 4.2.2 wit help on thuis site

I have the same Mini PC I think

The roms in this post don't work for me. None I have found are the original either.

I'll add photos of my stick to see if they are the same. Maybe someone else has bought the same device and can backup their rom for us. ;)

I found a rom that may work for you.

I just installed a rom I found that works. Its not the original but I can now use wifi and bluetooth and its Kitkat 4.4. It may work for you. It is MTK rom - probably stands for Mediatek which is the chips on my mini pc.

http :// ugoos.net/index.php?route=product/download/get&download_id=47

To install I used RK Rom dumper tool, but there are others. Rom dumper is pretty simple though, just load the firmware and click update. Just have the mini pc connected to your computer in recovery mode. Hold the reset/recovery button on the side as you plug the USB into the side Micro port. You computer should recognise it as a new device and ask for drivers. Run rom dumper go to second tab and click firmware button, choose your rom, then click update. Let it do its thing and the mini pc will reboot a couple of times and it should work.

MK809IV

There is one big problem with the MK809IV which was not in the III version - Heat dissipation. I recently purchased one of these devices and it crashed and recycled to boot sequence. I eventually got it to work, but when I tried the Kodi on line streaming app it crashed, it was an older version, which I removed and updated. I also tried an alternative program Internet Radio (V.Tuner) I found as long as I did not use the streaming apps, it worked, obviously indicating a high CPU usage problem.

By the way that that red plastic slider switch does nothing its not connected to anything

Diagnostics:

I found that the CPU Rockchip 3188 was reaching up to 50C with a thermal sensor attached to the chip. With the open case, I actually got Kodi to work for a few minutes, during that period the CPU rose to above 53.5C and shut down. The chip is a quad core and as such needs adequate ventilating and cooling.

Using an old Pentium Flat heat sink, I coated the surface of the chip with thermal paste and clamped the heat sink to the chip of one corner of the sink. This has to be done out of the case. (Be careful not to damage the reset button beside the CPU) With the heat sensor attached under the plastic hobby clamp. I again ran Kodi and the maximum temperature was around 41C a reduction of 10C after listening to music on line the device work seamlessly for several hours. The maximum temperature reached was 45.6C which appears to be within the tolerance of the CPU chip.

Conclusion:

Poorly designed and inadequate ventilation. No heat sinking of CPU under continuous use. At present I am awaiting seller's response on EBay, have given them a full report of the problem with this model, which many buyers are experiencing.

Solution:

Not recommended to buy, there are now Android Media boxes available for a few dollars more which have a proper well ventilated housing and appropriate cooling devices. With full internet streaming plus DTV PVR and many other functions.

Running a quad core chip in such a confined space is ridiculous! Might have been OK for the earlier single core chips on the MK 802!

Have a nice day: I am a retired Electronics Engineer with 65 years experience in the Electronics and Radio business. :)

MK809IV wifi fix

Hey guys I was looking around and noticed this thread. Figured I would just drop a message for anyone that has one of these. I noticed yesterday when playing with the unit that the odd time I would actually get wifi reception when moving it around. I took it apart and re-located the antenna. Now I can stream fine from 20 feet away. I posted the fix for you guys here and showed you what needs to be done. If you don't have the red slider like I do, cut a slot in the side of the unit and leave the antenna hanging out of the side. (btw, I just joined and saw the antenna above picture is installed correct, unlike mine was, but I don't have issues with my unit any further. Looks like a different chipset as well)

I still have not resolved the Bluetooth issue, but I think I have an idea. I believe they are using the same antenna for both the bluetooth and wifi which may be causing the issue. I may try to separate them at a later time... but for now it is working so I am not messing with it.

I posted the video.... but it won't let me. Search MK809IV media center, S805 WiFi fix in Youtube if you want to see how to get it running.

Mk809iv rk3188-t

Had a real tussle with the Chinese seller, opened a dispute on EBay and he agreed to refund. Then told me he would send another. After a week of garbage reverted to Paypal dispute and sent it back. Its arrived in China so refund in full will be coming shortly. Fast becoming very disillusioned with Chinese sellers on Ebay, they insult you by offering $1 compensation etc and lie to Ebay about what they will do. If you have any problems, best to open a dispute via Paypal, they are far more efficient and at least you get your money back :)

Sir, i have been using your this module since a few days, and this module is quite simple and the best thing is The non dimming ie brighten icons of notification icons.

I was just playing with the toggle height option and it worked quite well, but 1 thing I observed here is when the height is increased or decreased the process apply on the bottom part of the toggle only, rather I believe it should apply half-half on both top and bottom so that the toggle remained in center.

Can you please look into it. Or plz tell me if you keep it intentionally.

Thank You!!

[MENTION=5169444]AndroPlus[/MENTION] since i see you are good in modding system.ui

I've one question if you font mind: do you think it would be very difficult to replace the xperia quick settings with the pure aosp ones? this way we could have all the quick settings customizations in gravity box working! (2g-3g switcher, screenshot tile etc etc)

what do you think? very big job to do?

thanks in advance and in any case! ;) :good:

This stopped working for me after updating to xposed alpha 3. I am on xperia Z ultra.
[Xposed Framework Modules] sgiannouris:
I used this to customize quick settings, and it works with both xposed alpha 3 and .726 firmware.
[Xposed Framework Modules] gsapient:
Did you install alpha 3 clean or did you upgrade from alpha 2? Also did you clean ART cache after installing? (I didn't, but I don't want to try it if it is irrelevant).
[Xposed Framework Modules] sgiannouris:
I upgraded to alpha 3 from alpha 2, with ART cache wipe. I don't know if it is relevant, but I did it just to be safe.
[Xposed Framework Modules] AndroPlus:
Alpha 3 causes problem.

rovo said mainly AppSettings causes problem and he will post updated version, so wait...
[Xposed Framework Modules] gsapient:
Still not working in alpha 4
[Xposed Framework Modules] AndroPlus:
Strange...

Are you using .726?

I'm on .690 and it's working.

I'll update to .726 today or tomorrow to test.
[Xposed Framework Modules] gsapient:
I am on Z ultra with stock lollipop 5.02. There has been only one lollipop build for the ultra: .242

Anyway, I was only using this for the quick settings tiles, and there is a new module that offers the same and is working (xperia xposed LP), so I just uninstalled this. I am more interested in getting your other module (androplusmod) to work (it also stopped working since alpha 3, as I have posted on its forum).

Hi guys, im a total noob here so please take it easy on me, i rooted my s4 today and installed CWM and used TWRP to install cyanogenmod heres exacty what i did in order, note that i forgot to flad gapps can i install it later?

rooted s4

installed CWM root manager

downloaded cwm 10.2 to sd

went into recovery and installed Cyanogenmod and now im stuck on the logo with the circle spinning around it

even if i cant get into cyanogenmod, how could i get into my normal stock touchwiz? i selected backup rom when going into recovery

thanks guys i know someone will be able to help me thanks in advance
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Of all the custom roms to pick from you picked CM, for a noob your not doing to good.

You forgot to read or didn't read it enough, you where supposed to do a factory reset before flashing CM.

CM and Touchwiz don't like each other, so you can't have any trace of the former os before you flash that's where the factory reset comes in.

If you can boot into recovery do a factory reset and start all over again.

If not then you try for download mode, and use Odin with a stock firmware to start all over again.

With touchwiz you never forgot the apps.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
This comes across as being a little nasty to a new users who's politely asking for help.

And the repeated jabs at Cyanogen by you are not welcome here. No one says you have to like CM, but it's rude and insulting to the phone modding community to continue to badmouth the most popular custom Android ROM and the basis for most other AOSP roms.

If you have criticism of Cyanogen or anything else, there are more mature ways to discuss them. But telling a new member that he's doing a bad job of picking roms by choosing CM is insulting to the member and to the entire CM development team that has deep ties to XDA Developers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
I think my post will help someone in the future if they "read" and search the forum, sometimes a little assertiveness goes a long way Mr.

I spoke no lies. After all I was thanked, In case you didn't notice. !

I think it's called "freedom of speech" .

Some body has to impart some sort of warning, some devs aren't very clear about what they are making available to the community, and think that all that show up at there thread know what they are doing. Many times don't provide support on their own threads and post a cm Web site where your suppose to go for answers.

I have ran Cm on my previous phones successfully and choose not to because of its BUGGY nature, especially on a device that needs to be reliable, my Tab 2 is different it's just for basic use and reliability is not essential. Currently running Cm10.2.1 JB on my Tab 2 and loving it.

And besides you never forget your apps with TouchWiz.

Pp. ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
No one cars if you were thanked for a post. If you care about how much you get thanked then you have missed the entire point of the thanks system.

Freedom of speech does not apply here. That is a protection against government encroachment on speech. XDA can prevent you from saying anything on XDA Developers that they want to. Even if they couldn't (they can) your post is still rude. There are mature helpful ways to discuss rom problems.

Developers here are under no obligation to provide ongoing tech support. Nor are any promises made to anyone that ongoing tech support will be provided. This is NOT a support site. This is a development site. Development threads ARE SPECIFICALLY NOT support threads. For that reason users exploring the development threads most certainly ARE expected to know what they are doing. Even then, MANY rom developers, including CM rom developers, DO provide regular tech support. Some of them are great about it, going well above and beyond what is expected here. So your claims about CM developers are inaccurate.

Your complaints about stability are also wrong. Cyanogen STABLE RELEASES are very stable and reliable. (They aren't the most commonly used AOSP rom by accident). Any bugs that do exist in CM stable releases are well documented. So you should know what you are getting prior to flashing.

Nightlies are a different animal. They may be and often are buggy. That's why they are not called STABLE RELEASES. They are released so that users can find the bugs in them. If you run CM nightlies, don't complain about stability or bugs. (Help fix them, but don't complain)

Finally, the CM development team (and all ROM development teams for that matter) build their roms for free in their spare time and them give them to the world asking nothing in return. To contribute nothing to the development of a ROM then complain about the quality of the software and of the developers after they gave their ROM to you FREE OF CHARGE is beyond rude.

If you have problems with ROM stability or bugginess, you have 2 options. 1) Don't use it. or 2) Help contribute to it's further development by improving on code.

Option 3) "complain about the rom and the developers and try to tell other people CM is awful" is not an acceptable alternative.

Grab the app Disk Usage. It's small and free and can show you where all your space is going. Keep in mind to that if your using ROM slots + stock slot that all the apps you have on the stock slot will take up a lot of space.
