There are some dual-boot threads in the android development sub-forum here that might help you. I played with one in the past just to easily boot between stock & cm7 on an sd card, and it worked fine until i started messing with different updates which re-wrote the uboot that was using. Since the NC boots first off of the uSD card, you might consider just installing android to emmc and run ubuntu off of the uSD for now (or vice-versa). You should just have to pop out the SD card to boot into android. I have to admit I'm not really familiar with the latest in honeycomb & ubuntu news (CM7 ftw) so I'm not 100% certain that would work, but I'm not aware of a reason why not.
"installing android to emmc and run ubuntu off of the uSD"
Good suggestion, pony.
Since I've already installed CM7 on eMMC, I now want to run Puppy Linux on the uSD.
If anyone who read my post, know the Linux installation guide or links from other side, pls drop a line. Appreciate.
Thanks guys let me know if you figure anything out

You tried fat32 (cluster size 64kb)? What happens when you select "usbdrive" while running the Ouya?
No one really knows why they don't all work. But if nothing else just root your Ouya and sideload an app called Paragon. It works great with the Ouya as it mounts drives to /mnt/usbdrive by default.
thanks for the replies guys.......got it working no w the fat 32 ..........going to root etc later as off to the beach now.......and bugger me isnt xbmc a little crashy
Hi folks,
I think few people have already experienced that but I literraly can't download single file over 2Gb which is really annoying.
Ofc I've already performed a full wipe, cleaned everything, reinstall OS with stock firmware. I also tried to switch from official Oxygen OS to Open beta but nothing works.
The only thing I didn't tried is to format storage into f2fs (i'm actually in ext4)
But 1- I don't think it'll work because I didn't have any problem in ext4
2 - I can't install any OS after it's formated (I get error 7) even if I know how I could get rid of this error.
Moreover, I can't use any OTG stuff and I think it's linked cuz this issue appeared at the same time (or my OTG cable is maybe dead lol)
If anyone has an idea it'd be really great.
I'm facing this issue for weeks now and because it's very uncommon, no one try to help me...
Download using Android Download Manager and you are good to go
Hey. Finally I found a solution.
I have no issue with chrome 68 and the new download manager.
However, I don't understand why I was facing this problem with old chrome versions.
And unfortunately my OTG cable still not work

Chrome always had problems downloading files larger than 2GB. Not sure whether they have fixed it now , i started using ADM to capture my downloads to fix this issue.
And do you know by any chance why my OTG is not working (my OTG stick is working, i tested it on an other device --> Your phone is rooted ? If so, which ROM are u using ?

Oh well, I never faced this issue with chrome before but it's fixed anyway.
Yes my phone is rooted. I'm using OOS Open Beta 15, but even when I was on official OOS, it didnt work... I also tried to wipe + reinstall the firmware, but even with OOS Nougat it didnt work...
I wonder if it's an encryption issue
it's google. they've crippled android more each version out of contempt for power users. Anyone paying attention can easily see that their actions are not aligned with their supposed philosophy they like to brag on. If they spent half as much time on quality control as they do on platform control, then they might have something besides borked ux. Even their stock rom is useless

Wow I didn't notice that. To be honnest, I try to get rid of those google ****s. I deleted chrome because of my issue and installed Kiwi browser.
However, as far as I see, no one is facing this OTG issue...
I'll maybe give up and just use my computer for the transfers between my usb stick and my phone
Hello. I have a MXQPRO which has a rockchip in it, a RK3228A. I have lifted the mobo and heatsink to check but cannot see an image attachment on here Is anyone please able to help me root this box. It's currently running out the box fimware, 7.1 android. It's a bare minimal box with 1GB ram and 8GB storage. I'm wondering if I can do anything fancy with it. I'd like it rooted, TWRP possibly and another faster, possibly better ROM on it. I see https://www.atvxperience.com but don't know if it's something it can run. The computer I'm using is running Windows 10. Thank you x
It comes prerooted . Just install any root apk and you will see root works ..just install supersu from Playstore but if you do that Netflix apk will stop working ...there is no custom firmware so pointless to flash twrp
Hello KevMetal the device says root undetected when opening SuperSU. I tried Magisk manager too but that was showing the zip as not being installed even after I tried to manually patch the latest 17.3 on the site. Can I do anything with this box? It is bare minimum resources but its still not bad and could be even better with a better ROM possibly. I have booted into recovery via the pinhole reset button at boot but nothing goes through I only saw joy at the clear cache option. The atv link I posted above says the latest build supports rockchips can I get on that ROM ? Thanks x

install mix explorer file manager ..open it and open "root' section ..you will see a pop screen with strange Chinese lettering ( THAT IS SU PROMPT) figure out which side is "yes' and any other apk like sd maid ( to boost & manage device) ..in mixplorer you can modify "system" like deleting bloat etc ...
magisk is impossible because boot.img is rooted from factory ..so patched ...so no magisk ...i was able to flash an old twrp for Rockchip3229 via flashfire but it's pointless cos it breaks Netflix and we have no custom rom
there is NO the cool Amlogic based roms in atv link will run on our crappy Rockchip based boxes ...I have the 2GB + 8GB Rockchip RK3229 ...So I guess a little bettrr than yours ...
Hello KevMetal. I installed MiXplorer 6.29.20. I did not receive a prompt message when clicking on root it just showed me the section with many files within. Can I install root required apps? I haven't tried SD maid yet.
twrp is such an easy tool. Thank you for the explanation. I did try obtain files via seller or sellers but not many can help. One did send over links for RK3229.
1,firmware flash tools and drivers on Windows .

The box is running 7.1 out the box like I said above. Is that any better? Or is it same stock image. I'm confused I would have liked to try different ROMs atv looks good.
Is there anything I could do to this box? By the way thank you for your help I didn't think I would get much of a response having searched google and got pretty much nothing x

np problem . but i explained to you . the soc ( system on chip ) is the processor . we have the cheapest, less common , 0 developer chip ..ROckchip ( budget Chinese)
of course the ATV looks great but it is a custom but made for an Amlogic chip ...being able to port that to our device would be like saying you are waiting someone to put ios from apple on your Huawei ...just not gonna happen
if mixplorer is opening root and you can see files there and select or copy or paste there YOU HAVE ROOT ..ROOT=access to root filesystem
i will check the firmware but if it is links from manufacturer it is probably just stock in case you need to restore ....so the same but i will look
*i just looked __its the same as stock__it is just in case you need to factory restore your box cos it won't boot so its pointless
just install any apks you want by copy pasting them direct into /system/priv-app folder and delete the ones you don't need to boost your system ..sd maid is great for cleaning you cache and optimising system but you can forget getting something on the level of atv but at least you can delete the Chinese apks or sysyem apks bloat using mixplorer
just focus your attention on getting kodi running well and just leave twrp cos it won't be useful to you .......i mean what do you wanna do with it ? why is it so useful for a tv box ...i will sesrch for the twrp recovery.img i flashed but remember after flashing it and updating "root" supersu your netflix apk won't work anymore so is it really worth it ? for what just to backup up to sd ? personally i would just focus on making box boot direct to kodi ...remove all bloat .with mix root exploree..load kodi to max with plugins and that's the best you gonna get
you are one of 10 guys with this box and nobody will develop custom roms for it . sorry bro

I wanted root, or twrp root installed because of the basic magisk manager app but that was purely because magisk is soon easy to use. I'm not a pro with this so the app you suggested mixplorer is still getting around my head. I probably bar the easy functionality of magisk would have rooted viper4android on.
I did open the box and remove the heatsink of the processor to check for sure and it did say RK3228A. I took a picture but I don't see an upload attachment tab only a link attachment!
I used the box for streaming. Its not bad at all, low resource but it does stream well. Live tele streaming isn't bad but it is hit and miss because of crap software, I don't think its well supported as oppose to playing off a downloadable file. I don't use kodi. Only apps which are lightweight.
I wanted to try different roms for the fun of it really if at all possible. Thanks for the stock image verification its the first port of call when playing around so thanks again in case I mess things up or want to go back
Regarding freaktabs links. Are they all flashed through computer or can I use the built-in system recovery? Will they work. Sorry. I should register there too but like I said above I didn't find much with a google search when attempting to find files etc. for RK3228A so pretty dumbfounded on how to do anything with the box. Any help is much appreciated. I don't know how to do this if I'm honest the connection to PC is playing up not detecting the box at all with or without the power in the box. Any help would be greatly welcomed if I'm honest mate I know its a low resource box but I'm sure something decent could get on it from another chip may be. There isn't a RK3228A section on freaktab.
Regarding atv again. It may be for another rockchip but it says on the site the new release of firmware supports rockchips. Can you find it. And if you download the package it does have a 1gb/8gb version. Maybe for another boz I don't know but maybe for this one.

mmm well i haven't and didn't see anything on atv saying rockchip support ..
you can flash using batchtool in the link you already have or twrp ....what you don't seem to understand is that there is nothing for you to flash ...there are no custom roms for your device .,.you can try "porting" a rom which is to say taking a rom from another box with the same chip as yours and then patch fstab and swapping out ramdisk etc
search "porting" in xda to learn it .if you have atv rom with rockchip support share it with me ...
for now in freaktab they have a section for your chip ..go search for people with your box and try to port roms . i can't help you more
search in xda "porting" to learn how to port rom to your box ......
for basic understanding of root and root access to system folder i explained it well . if you need to know more sesrch xda university to learn information starting from basic beginning.
good luck bro
* one last thing * you have a problem
* your stock rom for restore is RK3229
__you say you have 3228A 100% certain ....
see the problem here ?:silly:
Hello. Thank you for your response it is much appreciated like I said thank you again. It says rockchip support on atv on the main page under the heading [ WE HAVE GONE BEYOND EXPECTATIONS…200K+ installs! ] at the top near the bottom of the paragraph.
I understood you when you said the box itself this exact model holds no support but I was wonder whether you could use another ROM. I will search port thank you.
I didn't see a RK3228 section on freaktab. I will have to post in another section or an open subforum.
Regarding stock firmware sent over. They say, a seller I mean who sent it said it will go on. I'm not sure how true that is being the same for a different chip. They messaged "3228A /3229 is the same . just different name for customers .3228A is for biger" lol

Jajaja, well i don't know in regards to 3228A and 3229 being the same ...if i were the manufacturer I wouldn't bother confusing people with two names
Obviously if the two are the same then obviously roms from both would work .
There is however a BIG section for RK3228 in Freaktab with more stuff than the RK3229 section cos it's older ...if they are the same that would be great news cos you could use stuff from both
We SOT luck regarding finding ready to go 123flash nice custom rom for our type of tv box .....
Could you please post a link to the Rockchip support bit on ATV page .. it's worth it to PM Ricky and asking him if there is ACTUAL working support for RK3228A&RK3229 but the only models I saw listed were Amlogic models in the "good" "popular" but more pricey boxes all starting with 9xx etc....
Hello again Sorry I couldn't see attachment support on my phone. I've now logged onto xda on a PC and I see upload ability. See below for pictures although it's being a bit for me, the attachments sorry if you cannot see them please let me know.

I don't know why root isn't working for you ...install supersu ( from playstore)..when it asks to update binary just ignore it ... then open any app that neeeds root and see if a su prompt appears ..
You can use mixplorer to copy any apk into system to make it a system apk or to delete any apk too since you can enter /root/system/ folder even if su prompt doesn't work
adaway won't work
I found the twrp custom recovery and even a custom rom but it's only
Hello KevMetal. I installed SuperSU. When I open the app it says Root undetected then closes. I tried to open it several times but closes again I'm not sure what's going on there. App version 2.82.
Making of a system app. For example viper4android? I tried a normal install but it doesn't install drivers at first boot just stuck on trying to install drivers.
Is there any such in-app ad blocker?
What's the ROM like any good? Would the custom twrp kill anything if I was to install something like viper4android?
Thanks for your help x

Uuuf ...i would recommend trying twrp recovery at your own risk ...you might brick ...if you don't you don't need any custom rom ....just flash supersu .zip and adaway zip then you are good to good ... you can try an adblocker that uses a vpn to block ads ...sound mods like viper might break stuff ...you might get force closes or reboots if the install is a fail but if you are brave enough to risk bricking and flashing twrp you might as well try other package...i didn't try the custom rom but theoretically it comes optimized ..as in all chinese apps renoved ..esfilexpkorer..root & so on ..i think they also improved playback to get better video ..but i have only read about ..like i said from the start the only thing i did was twrp ...install supersu and sdmaid for optimization ..but root broke the Netflix apk and root didn't get me any closer to finding something that lets me use amazon video ..so finally I just restored to get Netflix apk working ( NONE ) of any of the netflix apks I downloaded worked ...only the original that came with the box and it stopped working with root ...so no more questions ..press thanks and flash something and you tell me what happened. :highfive:
Hello KevMetal.
OK I don't want to do anything crap. The box looks to be locked. I'm curious to see what could load up but at the same time cannot be bothered to be honest with the lack of support I should have known better reading of chip support before buying but having said that it is still a nice little box. I have removed a fair bit off the machine stock preinstalled crap and it is running OK.
I am reluctant to ask but having gone through all this chat could I at the very least have a look at the files you mention please? I probably won't do anything because I'm annoyed it isn't well supported but still just to have a look please, thank you x
The optimized ROM was what was appealing to be honest with you. May be on a different box now. I shall read, or at least look to see which is popular. Thank you again x
Hello. Can a lock be put on these MXQPRO. I tried settings, screen lock but it doesn't appear, the lockscreen doesn't appear after being set with a pin.
I haven't bothered loading a ROM. I'm just going to try optimize it as much as possible. Shame.

Hiya mate I think you have a rk3229 chips as they only used 3 chips on this board the AMLogic S905, S905x and RK3229.
https://chinagadgetsreviews.com/?s=Mxq+pro.
your board r329q v3.0 is a mxq 4k rk3229 chip
Hello pcmender2005. The chip itself says RK3228A. Its compatibility is unknown to me. There are pictures of the board here sorry if they are not clear enough I think one of them was uploaded at full image size..

Is there anything I can do with it. Thank you for your response. I find optimized apps for example are smooth running so it was pure optimization was what I was after and in most cases modded ROMs offer that. ATV says of rockchip support but I don't know whether it supports mine and how I could get it on. Again thank you for the response x
I have the zipped file atvXperience_v4_S905X_RT_BCM.7z and extracted that and only that to the micro sd card. Not sure when to insert, before or after it boots to android screen. and does the sd card need just basic mbr or guid? End game is trying to get the android side working again so I can utilize the apk loader. It came with superuser and it bricked when I updated superuser. So I think the seller had it locked down? No copyright infringement. I was actully lucky to get the roms off the card that came with the console. So on the emuelec side I think I can add roms no issue.
It took the update to 4.0, so pleased about that. But I want to make the android side like a media center so I can plug an external ssd into it and have whatever movies/shows I want right on my roku tv. Can someone help me out please? I've came this far, so I'm not stopping lol. I guess this is my new tech junky hobbie. LOL 45, and still love ****ing with tech.
Thanks!
Mike
