[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] Dataking:
Hello,

I have the following type device: CYXTECH_RK3188 909 V1_1 (CX919 II)

Android stick was working great with XMBC until the screen crashed and since then the stick is not able to boot anymore. CX-919 II is recognized correctly by ROCKusb drivers and i could flash different ROMS (standard and custom) succesfully. However when i connect the tv stick to my television only Google TV logo is shown and after a minute device is rebooting again. So now i am looking for the correct ROM which should work on my stick and advise how to get it up and running again. Anyone who can help me with this?

Thanks a lot!

I bricked my device too

I don't think you bricked your device; first, try using a different hdmi cable or different display/monitor

if that doesn't work, it might be a software thing, after some research on your device, you'll find some flashing tools which you can use to flash different roms, if that is the problem, go to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2677979 , it is on rooting your device but i'm sure somewhere in the thread, you'll find the flash tool, if you don't, then download Finless ROM 1.6b (I've installed it on my cx919 ii 8gb rom, it is rooted and works perfectly [but there seems to be a bt problem]) http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?7553-UPDATED-CX919-4-2-2-Finless-ROM-1-6b

when you connect your device(windows only), you must manually install the provided driver in the file, don't let stu stu windows to install it, if you don't do it correctly, restart

here's how:

P.S. Yea... just hope you had the settings: usb debugging: off, connect to pc: yes/check mark, and connect as mass storage (not camera or mtp or something)

1. Open the flash tool (it should say something like: 'rk device not found' depending on the one u have)

2. Unplug your device from any power source

3. Connect a micro usb to usb cable to the otg port (i used a blackberry cable that was laying around, i believe the provided cable will work)

4. Then connect the usb to a port and imedeately press the 'fn' button (aka the one on the side)

5. Then in the device manager, manually update the driver for it with the one provided in the finless rom, be sure to update the device itself and not the drive/nand flash/ "memory"

6.Then in the flash tool, it should've found the device

7. erase nand memory/ idb

8. finally flash all the preselected items (that's how i bricked my device, when installing ubuntu, the files didn't have a recovery image so i couldn't conect it to my pc and reflash it)

Moment of truth, turn on ur device! u might wanna change some time settings cause some little problems with the rom like the time can bug u a bit

Hope it worked!:o:o

If i were u, i would do some more research, that's how i got this, u might stumble upon something and it might be a better guide then mine so just research it!

Now I'm gonna go find out how to fix mine!;)

Good luck flashing!

CX-919 II android TV stick bricked

Hi! I just purchased CX-919 II android TV stick. I was having wifi connection issues, so I decided to change the firmware with 4.4 kitkat. The problem was that when I was going to downgrade to 4.2 I had the usb debugging checked on. so now It seems my device is brick. the blue power light comes on, but the tv screen continues black with no sign og the system booting.

I´m RKbatch tool 1.7 and CX-919 4.2.2 Finless 1.6b with cx919-rk3188-4.2-6210-20131209 firmware

Can anyone help me unbrick my device, please?
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] Hold nu kæft:
Been there, done that.

When connected to the RKbatch tool, what message do you get?

Do you connect to a WINXP, 7, 8?

I messed my CX919II up when I flashed it using a WIN8 laptop. I tried everything to reconnect to my WIN8 laptop but with no luck.

I then tried on my old WINXP laptop and after installing the USB driver I managed to connect and flash my CX919II.

Now it's up'n,running again :)

Hope it works for you.

Cheers

Unbricking only with the short circuit mehod

I flashed it with win7. I already figured out what went wrong. it´s up and running again. I had to open the case of the CX-919 II / J22 / EKD03 Quad Core Rk3188 Android Smart TV Stick. Although it still connected to the RKbatchtool 1.7 it was always hanging up on the IDB preparing. - IDB fail. So I had no other choice but to short circuit the 7-8 pins of the nan chip in order to flash it again.

I´ll try to leave a detailed guide in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/hardware-hacking/android-sticks/cx919-ii-completely-bricked-tv-signal-t2859564

It might be useful to anyone who buys the CX 919 from ebay chinese sellers.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] raptir:
I'm looking to get a car mount for my Nexus 5, but I'm not sure which style to go with. My dad has the Aduro u-grip and likes it, but he says it has fallen off his dash a couple times. He doesn't use the 3M tape though, so I imagine that could stick it more permanently.

http://www.amazon.com/Aduro-Univers...GLF8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1405607983&sr=8-2

I've also seen options that fit on your vent.

http://www.amazon.com/Kenu-Airframe...1B4W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1405608084&sr=8-1

The vents in my car are fairly close together, so I'm a little concerned about that fitting.

I haven't really seen many of the traditional windshield mount options, but I never had much success with those sticking well anyway.

Any thoughts on the two I posted plus other possibilities?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] cgjjaf:
Hello,

The one that your dad has is awful, it won't stick even with the 3M tape/disk. As for the second one, I used with a smaller phone and it worked fine, but I think it might be a tight fit for the N5, especially if you use a case.

I currently have these two:

http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Windsh...ie=UTF8&qid=1405608590&sr=8-5&keywords=iottie

http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Univer...ie=UTF8&qid=1405608655&sr=8-7&keywords=iottie

The first one is in my car, the other one in my wife's. I particularly like mine, as it is easier to get the phone in and out. Also, you won't need the 3M tape. iOttie uses an special type of suction cup that attaches to virtually anything. I will also like to mention that both mounts have fallen a couple of times, during the winter time, but I am talking about really cold temperatures. You can put them in the windshield as well as in the dashboard, but I don't like to put them in the windshield, because I mostly listen to music through my phone and it is kind of far away to use for me.

Regarding the vent mounts, I have used them in the past with other phones, and there is just one major benefit in my opinion. When you are using the navigation app, the phone tends to get really hot and if you are listening to music is even worse. With your phone in the vent, that won't be an issue, even during the winter. The only con I can think of is that some of those vent mounts won't have a strong hold in your phone, so if you hit a big bump in the road the phone might come out.

I hope this helps.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] raptir:
Yeah, that's why I was looking at vent mounts. My old HTC Incredible would overheat if I didn't position my one vent in such a way as to blow cold air on it. Unfortunately in my new car the vents can't angle to blow cold air on where the phone would be in a window or dash mount.

I have a Kenu Airframe and am a huge fan. I've had it for a little over a year. Excellent product.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] namartlu:
+1 on the Kenu, but I used it with the Nexus5 Qi charger. See this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/accessories/kenu-airframe-n5-wireless-charger-t2573184

It's very convenient to have the N5 magnetically mounted. I tried without the magnetic charger, it's a bit hard to insert/remove the phone from the Kenu mount.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] taihard:
So, it's been a while since 4.4 has come to the S3 and there still doesn't seem to be any good news for those on a locked bootloader. Is it still the general opinion that it would be better to wait and keep the bootloader unlocked or should I give in and update while giving up my bootloader? I personally don't flash aosp or any other roms besides touchwiz and really only want root but I also think resale value (if I decide to sell later) could be a bit better if I keep bootloader unlocked. Anyways, what are you doing? Are you unlocked and waiting to see if we can get 4.4 on an unlocked bootloader? Did you / will you sacrifice bootloader and update to 4.4 and if so, is it / was it worth it?

Thanks!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
I would say that if you don't like to play around with custom rom then update. I'm using stock rooted 4.4 and very happy with it. Custom rom give you more options/features but they come with bugs here and there and time to reflash. If you like trouble free then stock rooted is the way to go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] djphrost1:
RE:

One of the things to consider when making this decision is this. What benefits/features/options of a custom ROM do you like or find necessary that stock (even rooted) might not offer? For me personally the only quarrels that I have with Samsung stock roms are touchwiz and the bloatware (additional S-Apps). I personally don't use too many of them as Google, among other devs, have better equivalents.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcbjoe:
Thats cool

To unlock you boot loader doesn't mean you just want to flash custom roms .. its just the feeling of having complete ownership of your phone

You can be rooted stock and be happy but to be Rooted / Stock / With a unlocked boot loader is total freedom

Example

OK, I tried searching the forum for a similar post and didn't find anything but wanted to share a bit of heart-burn resolution after my Wizard ran completely down on power and would not charge back up. It would seem that once the Wiz is completely dead, you must use the AC Charger that came with the phone. I have had 3-4 RAZR's in the past and their charger works great when the Wiz still has power but they will not charge the phone when it is dead.

The only difference I see in the two chargers is that the HTC charger supplys 5.0V 1A of power unlike the Motorola charger only supplys 5.0V 550mA.

Hope this helps others.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mbn:
Not only that, but if you leave your Wizard (my 8125) charging overnight with a normal Motorola power supply, it could also run down your battery to zero. The wizard charger supplies normal cell phones, so you either need to use the one that came with your device or make sure when you buy an additional one that it will supply the same level of power.

I thought I had a defective battery for a few days when I first got the device because I was using my Pebl charger and the same thing happened to me...

Thank you for this post....I thought I had finally loaded something on my phone that I couldn't recover from...lol.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] izeman:
i hope you all are wrong. ;)

my mda vario is totally dead. i tried a friend's battery and it powered up like normal. so i assumed a dead (not only empty) battery and ordered one from ebay (still waiting though).

unfortunately i have so many different chargers for usb that i don't know what the original one looks like. maybe someone could post a picture or tell me the exact type.

thanks. regards ize|man

ps. @mbn: your power goes down to zero with a different charger ATTACHED??? even if that provides lower ampere - how can it drain power from the device?

pps. i even tried my universal car charger (12V -> usb). afaik it provides 1A as well. but i can be wrong.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] clemsyn:
Just make sure the 12>usb supplies a 5v voltage, nothing more or else you would be one unhappy person.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mbn:
Yes, i was using the iGO tip that I bought for a Motorola phone (A32, I believe), I left my 8125 plugged in (powered down) with that tip overnight in a hotel room and the next morning I woke up and it was completely drained to zero. However, a few other times it did not drain to zero. I thought I had a flaky battery so I ordered a replacement from eBay and the next week the same thing happened. I finally got smart ;) and now I have the right tip (A53) and it works fine. The male part of the two iGO tips look exactly the same (A32 & A53) so I thought it would be the same power supply. Wrong!

What's stranger is that if your pda is on and you plug in a Motorola phone power supply and the battery is not close to zero, it DOES charge the battery. I think the key is not leaving it plugged in when it's powered down for many hours at a time. A full day out of the office without email has taught me 2 valuable lessons: always bring the right power supply and always carry a spare battery.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] izeman:
sure ;)

of course it supplies 5v as it's meant to be.

but that leaves me with my open question: what is printed on the original power supply so i can identify it? thx.

regards ize|man
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lken12:
I was told that the ic chip inside the MDA and Razr charger is different so using the razr charger might not be a good idea. As for the OEM charger, mind was made by Delta Electronics Inc. HTC P/N:79H00051-01M
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wenlez:
i have the same problem now. the battery is completely drained, and i can't charge my phone now. i lost my original chaarger, and i've been using a USB cable to charge.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rpodos:
Same thing happened to me... while traveling no less!!! In my case, it was a Boxwave retractable charger: battery at zero, USB didn;t work...freaked me out.

Wenlez, you can either got to a Tmobile or Cingular store and get the RIGHT replacement charger, or get the correct iGO tip. You should be OK.

Today i ended up installing a new rom on kindle fire, everything worked very well, but i have a little issue now.

Just to be safe i decided to do a backup with TWRP after the installation of CyanogenMod. Previously i did a backup of the stock rom.

Now if i TWRP -> Restore I'm able to see only the last backup done, and if i use a file browser i'm only able to see the old stock backup.

What is happening? I wish i could delete the old backup to get back the 2.1 GB it occupies :eek:

That path should be a symlink to the exact same place. If you updated twrp recently then its possible it might be part of the fact that twrp reads serial numbers now and started only showing backups in the same folder as the serial numbered folder rather than the 0000000000 folder.
