Somebody ever seen that?

I cracked mine open today and it looks exactly like that, even thou it not the one I order it had two wifi antennas etc. on boot screen it says R-BOX......

Sorry to hear about your fakes, especially with new kernels being released.

Since the release of rkpatchomatic it shouldn't be a problem to also patch the clone kernels for overclocking.

Dukeofducks is genuine however, like the other one I saw. You can see the wifi chip on his picture.

Adding more info...

Just confirmed with factory

- After X pcs they will mount the old WiFi/BT chip again
- They did not change more things

This is not good for final customers, if the comunity people makes new ROMs they will not work... or maybe yes



Also, this is the new BACK face of the case:

[Javimetal]

Maybe here you can see better...



New firmware is also needed. I didn't look under silk, but I guess they also changed something related to the HDMI (maybe even the controller chip).

[Javimetal]

They are not fakes, just new revisions. I just got 5 bluetooth version from (real) factory and they changed the WiFi/BT chip to MEDIATEK.

BTW, the old firmware does not work... some stuck on boot logo, some does not show anything on the screen... I'm going to get the new firmware

[Javimetal]

I have just seen this on a new mk808b.

It's genuine, but seems to be a new revision. It only has a single antenna, but the wifi is pretty fantastic I might add.

Just got mine from Deal Extreme (SKU: 176755). Looks different from the others. Has a blue board, but you can see it is RK 903. Came with 4.2.2 but it's crash happy in Netflix, which is the reason I bought it. Going to try a custom ROM

[dukeofducks]

I think it's original?

Okay, that's not even a clone of the MK808. That's just some other stick. I even doubt that it is a RK3066 stick because i can't see the RK3066 chip on your pictures.
Because of this, i seriously doubt that you will get support for your stick here, sorry.

ok thanks for your help, the MK808 is the nearest i've seen that looks anything like mine. will have to keep looking on the internet .

[thomas craddock]

Never seen anything like this before. Just got from amazon.ca. Could anyone please tell me what version of clone mine is & which firmware to use?

check out post 81. try the imito mx1 rom. also, if you have the stock rom, (usually can be found online but are obscure if you dont have any good leads. start with mk808.com) that will help too.

if you have one with different firmware, like the newer clones out there, try the rikomagic mk802III rom.

and get rockchip batch tool along with finless bob's rom tool.

Swdchoo, look at post #81
