    Does this ROM support the Android 4.2 multi-user login feature?

    FNC, I think your having USB communication issues. Try a different cable and a different USB port on your PC.

    Thanks Bob again for some rock solid info, I agree I wouldn't advice adding it to a non legit unit, Although id rather remove it altogether from a Tronsmart unit until they produce a worthy ROM!!!

    Attempting an OTA update when using a different ROM! That can only spell "issues" at best.

    help

    Finless,

    I can not seem to get your rom to flash.
    I just got my mk908 it came today with the default 4.2 rom (ordered from geekbuying)

    after much trial an error:

    - I was able to get the original 4.2 tronsmart rom to flash back to the device....
    - I was able to get your finless 1.4 to flash.

    both of those worked, but i continue to recieve the error with 1.5 (i even tried to use the .bin from 1.4 finless, and the rest of the img from 1.5 - but that was a no go)

    Tried also downloading and extracting 1.5 two times (still both failed...)

    The last part of the log is as follows...

    Support for NTFS external HDD?

    Does this rom support external hdd formatted as ntfs?
    If so, how can I acces the drive over my home network with my windows 7 desktop?

    Re: OTA updates

    I have yet to see any RK product do a OTA update!
    However I can tell you that Tronsmart did change the OTA update URL in their ROMs from the default rockchip address..
    As far as other sticks getting the update or not, this is easily modified.

    Build.prop has this:

    ro.product.ota.host=www.netxeon.net:2300

    This is the tronsmart OTA location. However if you have a clone and add this to build.prop and allow the OTA update, you could brick if the ROM is not for your device...

    Anyway tronsmart has not pushed any OTA update yet.

    Hmm... I'm not sure if I have the real thing or a fake, but mine doesn't say Tronsmart anywhere. Again, I bought mine from Taobao in China. Maybe they don't sell it under the Tronsmart name within China? Anyway, it came with 4.2.2 out of the box, and Finless ROM 1.5 is working fine on it now (except for no tun.ko module for vpn).

    Thanks,
    IMHO From looking at that it definitely looks as though Tronsmart weren't/aren't the manufacture, a part from the fact the T428 and MK980 are close in spec but completely different units requiring different research/tooling/parts/processes, If it were the same manufacturing company they would standardize or just produce one or the other and now it seems Tronsmart have just requested their supplier brand the units with their logo, This is quite common practice, However it does come with its own pitfalls if Tronsmart don't own the design then it can allows the possibility for the manufacturer to sell/make/design units for other companies which could easily be the unlabeled units - I would bet they are made by the same company.

    So Tronsmart just add an address to an OTA server to their ROMs?
    Does anyone do an OTA update ?

    I wouldn't like to rely on that, Im cool with flashing these units id like a local copy of the updates to hand!

    tronsmart tell us they will put the OTA update
    As thats stated for the future what about all the people that currently have the original ones do they not get the OTA update anyway?

    Be careful Guys, tronsmart has changed the package for their MK908, see here:



    they have found some copied mk908 in market, and have did some change, the copied mk908 won't get custom rom support and other tech support, and tronsmart tell us they will put the OTA update in the original Tronsmart MK908,which others copied won't do that.

    Be careful to buy those mk908 without tronsmart logo.

    Bob, thank you so much for all your time and energy spent to bless us all! Followed your directions and everything worked great for me, and I'm not even sure if I have the real Tronsmart stick or a fake. :-)

    I live in China and rely on a VPN to get past the "Great Fire-wall" for youtube, facebook, netflix, email, etc., but my company's VPN only seems to work with apps like vpncilla. When I tried it, it said that I'm missing tun.ko, so it won't connect. I saw on this thread http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.p...l-quot&p=71639
    that Leolas had compiled a tun.ko module for mk808b. I'm afraid I don't know enough about this stuff yet to try it without probably messing something up. Can I just use an app like "root explorer" to push Leolas's tun.ko somewhere?

    Anyway, was just wondering if you thought you would put it in a future update, or if not, if you or anyone else had any ideas for how I could do it myself.
    Thanks!
    Jason

    Jason
    Thanks for your answer. I feel confident now flashing the finless rom. Much appreciated
