Matchstick ROM ported to original MK808B [Firefox OS]

[BalintBanyasz]

This port is for testing purposes only. If you like this ROM please back Matchstick's project on KickStarter. Matchstick's team developed the ROM, I've only ported it to the original MK808B (RK903).

You are also going to need an app for your phone:

Seems to have potential.

Hows the performance?
Also can you get back to android after flashing this?

If only we got xbmc on that... I could leave google behind.
I understand firefox os is in early stage, but if this project goes well and devs start support some basic tv apps, FOS could be the future for dedicated tv devices. And start spreading.
We dont need android for that, despite googles spyware...

I ll try this when i get a chance and give some feedback.

Cheers.

It's not a standard Firefox OS. Matchstick is a streaming device like Chromecast and it runs a customized Firefox OS which is currently very limited. Hopefully it's going to have a lot more applications in the future because the platform is completely open-source. You can read more about it on Matchstick's Kickstarter page. Matchstick's modified Firefox OS runs on top of JellyBean 4.2.2 (3.0.36+ kernel) and the Matchstick device has the same SoC as MK808/B (Rockchip 3066).

I've tested it with the YouTube app on my Android phone and I was able to 'fling' videos to it.

Here are some screenshots from my MK808B:

1. Open MatchStick app on your phone. It will detect your device (MatchStickXXXX - Needs to setup). Click on the device and press Set up.
2. App: Connecting MatchStickXXXX TV: MatchStickXXXX is waiting for intructions
3. Select the I can find the code option (the code should match the one shown on your TV) and set a name for the device.
4. Select your Wi-Fi network and enter the WiFi password. Click Setup network.
5. App: MatchStickXXXX is successfully set up! TV: Ready to Fling.
6. Now that the setup is completed, you can close MatchStick app.
   
7. Open any supported app (e.g. YouTube), press the Cast button in the top-right corner, select your MatchStick device, and enjoy!

[prahjister]

1. MatchStick isn't configured - it creates a hotspot (MatchStickXXXX)
2. Open MatchStick app on your phone. The MatchStick app will detect the hotspot/device (MatchStickXXXX - Needs to setup). Click on the device and press Set up.
3. Connecting MatchStickXXXX
4. Meanwhile on your TV: MatchStickXXXX is waiting for intructions
5. Select the I can find the code option and set a name for the device
6. Select your Wi-Fi network (the one that you usually use for accessing the internet) and enter it's password. Click Setup network.
7. MatchStickXXXX is successfully set up! On your tv: Ready to Fling.
8. You can close the MatchStick app now because your phone and MatchStick are connected.
9. Open YouTube (or any other supported app) and you will find a Cast button next to the search button in the top-right corner. Select your MatchStick device. That's it

It must be my devices. I see the hotspot on both devices when i look at wifi. it just doesnt pull it up in the app.

I see the spot but when I run the app I have this : No MatchStick Found On MatchStick6194 ??

Still cant get the thing to connect. Here is a port scan of the device.

Interesting finds

Holding volume up button for 5 sec on k400 will factory default the device.
Pushing f6 brings up another screen.

This is fantastic!

It would be possible a version of this port for the MK808 (non-B)?

Sure, just give me a link to the latest stock ROM (Android 4.2.2) for the MK808.

Have you tried the Firefox extension (from the same download link)?

Yes and i starting looking at the extension. I think my virtual box adapters/ other adapters are interfering. I am not that good at java script.

Just briefly looking before i had to go to bed last night i uncompressed the xpi file with 7zip and started looking.

might try to uninstall virtual box and wireshark to see if it helps.

And for some reason both my tablets don't seem to work right with the android app.

I cant get the apple ios one to work. I don't think it exists yet.

I wish i could manually set it up through web admin.

I have non b and it appears to work. Hot spot is up and running. I can connect to it. Just cant configure it.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough. You don't have to connect to the created WiFi AP, the app will use it in order to configure the device.

I wasn't aware that the MK808B kernel is compatible with MK808, but if WiFi works then there shouldn't be any problem.

MK808 port

http://vondroid.com/resources/mk808-.../#.VDRQV9zF8gs

Prahjister reported WiFi working on MK808 with the MK808B ROM so I'm not sure whether you need this, but here is the download link for the MK808 port:
matchstick-flingone-b2g2.0-201409281739-mk808.img.7z

Hopefully, this one one solves the previous connection problems.
