MK808B clones, how to identify them.

Any rom for this one

I have this for a while i would like to know if there are any rom better than the original, the big problema of this stick is no 1080p and the color imange is a litter dark

[ddrop]

I have a HTC-T011-V4 and cannot flash as well. One thing I noticed is that the blue light stays on while in flash mode (previous models did not do this). Also there is a timeout before the stick reboots on it's own. I tried using the RK ROM Dumper and Flash utility. I was able to get the parameter file off the chip but was unable to get the system.img partition. I tried this on 2 different HTC-T011-V4 sticks with the same result. Is there a different flash utility/config we are supposed to use on this?

Edit - I was able to successfully flash this with the T005_T011_public_root_8723_2014109_V4.4.img. The Factory Firmware Tool v4.4 works with this rom as well. Does anyone know if there is a Jellybean rom for this? Also noticed that the display scale keeps defaulting to 95% after a reboot. Any way to get the settings to stick?

i have flashed multiple times.

With all the flashing going on it may take a 2nd flash to be successful. Try flashing the same rom twice...Sounds like you have a v5. So go the v5 or mine which is just a cleaned up v5 with some patches.

i have flashed multiple times, with multiple images, tols used RKBatchTool, AndroidTool v2.1, ROM_Flash_Tool_137. I have flashed several realtek and mediatek boards, I have never seen this particular board or realtek number. any help in locating a working stock or upgraded image, for this model?

Same as srysry's and katchet's from ALI

...but finally in the same baidu account where i found working firmware the owner have just uploaded today a new firmware that works, and is rooted!!
I put the link here to help others: http://pan.baidu.com/wap/link?uk=255...00546&third=15

Hi buddies
Mine is like srysry one but without heatsink, bought xpress.
There is "HTC-T011-V4 2014-02-18" writing on the board and wif/bt chip seems to be "Realtek 8723Bs".
I have erase nand in trying to set linux. Now, I will continue to try setting linux on my mk808b.
It seems as hard as finding the stock firmware.
I look for tracks to use Linux on it...
See photos of my Mk808b and thank you again srysry for this link.

Hi guys,

Mine is the same as yours, recently received from AliExp.
Can I root this device with the custom rooting tool for any 808b even though it comes with KitKat?
I am also considering putting linux on it, so guys keep up searching, together we might find appropiate linux builds quicker.
I am now downloading the rom from baidu that srysry recommended ( sucks, slow like hell ) but firstly I'd rather simply root the device with the original rom to see how it performs.
Is the cooked rom performing much better?
Finally, how can I root and/or flash a new rom and CWM on a Linux pc? Or strangly we must run windows in a VM to play with Linux-based Android????

Thanks

Same as srysry's mk808b without heatsink

There is "HTC-T011-V4 2014-02-18" writing on the board and wif/bt chip seems to be "Realtek 8723Bs".
I have erase nand in trying to set linux. Nothing worked after that, only few old firmwares but without wifi.
Great thank to srysry, with his linked firmware my mk808b is back.
It is a good box, better that previous instable mk802.
As use this old one as web, mail server and print servers, some times with Atrix laptop.
Now, I will continue to try setting linux on my mk808b.
It seems as hard as finding the stock firmware.

The pcb layout is known and the wifi chip is known, but i have never seen it in this combination. The new original mk808b also comes with RTL WIFI, maybe this fimware also works on your device. Or you could try to take the firmware that works and flash just the kernel of the RTL WIFI firmware over it. I guess both is unlikely to work, but there is a chance. Your only other hope is that someone else with the same device dumps his firmware (or at least the kernel) and uploads it for you.

And concerning the IDB error: Do you erase IDB before you flash?

Yes... I haven't seen one combination like this before. Thats the first firmware i tried ( The original with new RTL ) and it didn't work.
I thougth that, and made some tries... but finally in the same baidu account where i found working firmware the owner have just uploaded today a new firmware that works, and is rooted!!
I put the link here to help others: http://pan.baidu.com/wap/link?uk=255...00546&third=15

The problem with IDB came when i tried to flash a firmware from mk808 not B. So to repair i erase nand shorting pins 7 and 8, and the device became unbricked. And with the new firmware everything is working now! ( Well not everything because i need the device in portrait mode and build.prop configurations don't work, and my smali knowledge is limited , but i think ask this here is offtopic )

So many thanks phinc and hope this help someone with this strange clone.

MK808B clone

Hello!

I've just bought a MK808B from Aliexpress, and cannot identify it.

I attach photos of the device. It have RTL8723BS and don't seem to be original, also comes with 4.4 kitkat.

Only this firmware worked but without WIFI ( This came with MTK wifi, not RTL ).

http://pan.baidu.com/wap/link?uk=255052996&shareid=415473855&third=15

I've some questions
¿What roms could work on my device?
¿How i unbrick this device (Tried other roms and now it says IDB failed when flashing) ?

Any help appreciated.

Mat.

Buddy this is not working for my device.
I loaded it and after booting it hangs on the screen with the 2 penguins in the upper left corner.

The one suggested by phinc (http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.p...l=1#post169692) works great except it has no tun.ko module in the kernel, which I would like.

Cheers!
