Hi All,
New MK802 1GB Mini Android 4.0 PC Google TV Box 1.5Ghz Wirelss HDMI
for $63.99 + Free Shipping.
I dont really know is this great deal or not but so far cheapest among all posted.
As long as I have Phone with MHL Cable I am not really looking to buy any of these.
Thnx for Looking.
They seem to run about this price now. I got one for a few dollars less on aliexpress. I have to say I wasn't thrilled using it with the mini fly wireless keyboard, but then I discovered uberoid rom and droidmote and now control it from my phone. Much more fluid and responsive. Great for live streaming on my tv.

Hello XDA!
I want to buy a tablet and I'm a little undecided
Have to choose between Galaxy Tab2 7.0 and Nexus 7.
I choose Nexus 7 because it has a good processor, better screen (this will test soon) and will last a few years .. no lag quad core Tegra 3!
For me, a tablet is for:
games
watching movies
and sometimes a device that can read a book (and some browsing on the Internet)
Am I able to buy a USB OTG, now I wi-fi and surprise surprise .. can buy a 32 GB version!
Till now I have memory problems at all, and a USB OTG can do whatever I want! I could only make games and gaming tablet and stick to put some movies!
Samsung tab2 would buy it just because I heard it's good, I like the design, material .. but do not know the difference between the two screens (I did not see Nexus 7 in my city).
Have principal camera and you can increase the memory because is equipped with a slot for SD.
Until now, my financial possibilities and "little tool" (USB OTG) differences between the two would be:
Galaxy tab2 has the principal camera
And do not know what is quality material (which does not interest me so much) and has a better screen, I want to say this in terms of color (they are alive, even deleted?)
Thanks in advance, and excuse my English!
P.S. I want to know if there was an important aspect of the Nexus 7 for which I would want to take it! Mean if a tablet is bad or not so good compared to Galaxy tab2!
Thank you.
My Wife has the the Sam Gal Tab2 7.0 - nice BUT.......Asus have done a fantastic job with the Nexus 7. First thing is the screen - less resolution on the Tab2 - looks ok but the Nexus looks great - only down side is the Mem expansion- but really if you get a 16GB + OTG.
I have rooted both and they work well. I must say I am a geek (fussy) with these gadgets - and I love my Nexus 7 - sorry samsung.
Cheers

It's true that I can increase memory and USB OTG cable (to put a stick in it), connect the keyboard, mouse, joystick and connect a 3G modem?
Thanks!

All true afaik, though I haven't tried the 3g thing(there's a thread here that says it's working).
I read that 32GB N7 is going to be out soon so storage is not much of a problem now.

I am new to android tv in general, and I am looking to buy my first android usb stick. I am wondering if you guys would recommend the MK808 or MK809?
So far, I read that the MK808 has amazing support - since many developers and programmers have it but it seems to have a few glitches here and there (wifi and bluebooth etc.)
And the MK809 - the latest in the series. All issues on 808 seems to be addressed, but the 809 lack of support and popularity..
Please share your inputs. Thanks

Hi there,
I own the MK809, can't comment on the 808, but the 809 works perfectly.
Hi,
and Hello to everyone.
Also bought the MK809 (T002)
- Runs smoothly without any glitches. Latest official FW installed from mk809.com
If you update the FW dont flash the MK809II Firmware onto the MK809. TV-Dongle runs but some important functions will not work anymore.
Have just tested it to see if i can get Bluetooth support for my MicroBluetooth dongle.
- Antutu 3.0.3 result without tweaking or overclocking: 7983 points
- Controlled by a mini Keyboard Rii mini i8 or the MK802iii remote client app from the PlayStore.
- Runs with my phone charger 5V/1A without problems. But to be on the safe side i also bought an extra 5V/2A power supply for 8bucks.
- Quickly rootable with Zhoudashi tool.
- MX Player shows all FullHD test-vids i tested from blender.org smoothly (Sintel / Tears of Steel)
Resolution 1920/1080/60 using MX players new HW Decoder. Using HW+ i had system freezes causing me to power off the system.
- Cant say anything about digital audio output due to missing equipment. But check the MK809II thread, there is a discussion ongoing.
- Connected devices using a passive usb-hub: 1TB HDD, 16GB Key, RF-Keyboard, USB Gamepad
For sure you can find more custom roms out there for other models, like the MK808.
I also cant say anything about the MK808 but for my needs (as a PC-replacement connected to a big screen ) the MK809 serves perfect.
Cheers

Thanks for the explanation. It seems to me that it really depends on what the user wants to do afterall.
MK809 is flawless for watching/stream movies, while MK808 is more about experimenting with different features / custom rom etc.?
BTW, you got the MK809 right? Not the MK809II or MK809b? (sorry, there are so many different models, that I am confused already)

Yes,
i got the MK809 with 4GB. (Model HTC-T002-V0).
4GB is the only limitation so far. I already started using Apps2SD. Bluetooth would also be a nice option.
I have a 2nd MK809 Dongle here (same model) which has some glitches on the HDMI output. I will use this one to play around with Finless ROM and will try to get my USB-DVB-C running. But i will lose WiFi i think due to missing RTL8188 support.
Will report later.
Cheers
Why does everyone want to load finless ROM on their stick tho? I thought MK809 already comes with android 4.1.1 installed jelly bean or whatever. isnt that good enough? What so especial about finless ROM?

Finless is just tweaked with some cool features and prerooted.

thanks for sharing the experience
it helps that the finless rom is rooted because a lot of the best adblocking software available is for rooted models only. it also means you can use titanium backup to drop any of the stock programs you won't ever use either.
it also gives you significantly more space for apps - i have 2gb free now, where I had ( i think ) about 500mb free with the stock rom
Sv: Should I get MK808 or MK809 now?
I have the mk808b Bluetooth model and it works great.
I've read somewhere that it has a different Wifi chip compared to the mk808 and I haven't experienced any problems with poor Wifi. I've got my router in a different room some 8 m away and behind concrete walls and a steel cabinet, still some 70-80% signal.
It came pre rooted so all I had to do when I got it was to add my Gmail account and I was good to go.
No heat issues, it gets no warmer than my phone while watching movies and during normal play it's just a bit over room temperature.
I use a Logitech K400 keyboard with the tiny receiver plugged right into the mk808b 's USB port.
It's been running for 3 days now and no glitches what so ever. Only complaint is that Google Currents is impossible to read, the text is ridiculously small, but that's not the mk808b' s fault
I got the mk808b since I wanted Bluetooth and it was cheaper than the others.

I think MK809 is best.
As mentioned previously i now flashed the Finless ROM 1.7 onto my 2nd MK809.
I works perfectly, from what i saw until now.
I have the HTC-T002-V0 PCB with RTL8188EUS WIFI. I have no issues. The WIFI runs like before. Fast and stable.
I am using the CPU1272 Kernel which is a little bit overclocked.
Linux
I just bought one of these, and I love it so far!! I was wondering about loading Linux on to this..I know you can load a version of Ubuntu on to arm processors... Will it work for this?

This is good to know, I have been debating on whether or not to purchase the mk808 due to wifi problems. I didn't even know there was an mk809 available.
Does anyone know how to output raw digital audio via the HDMI ?
Haven't found a setting or player yet that can do this.
What's the difference between the mk808 v 809 and 809II?
Check out the thread about the mk812 it looks even better.

Yea i dunno. I got excited about the dual core Cortex A9 CPU until i read the tech specs and it isn't a Cortex but an Allwinner which is meh. I love how it says 1.6 CPU then the specs say different.
The external antenna and Bluetooth is nice but I'd stay away. The different chip probably means little to no dev support.

Thanks in advance \o\

Flash runs great on the MK808 which are the same thing as the 809s I believe, just with Bluetooth.
Ubuntu is coming but I don't see much of it. These guys run Android pretty good and I'd stick with it. Android is much better geared at this stuff and the apps look great on a TV.

I received mine yesterday, have been testing it all day, everything looks fine, no significant lag. One thing I cannot test out is the MHL function. I tried mt MHL adapter, it does not work at all. Can anyone help me test if this feature exists or I got a lemon?

Yes, it does.
This is the adapter I am using that I had bought for my Note 2 (I'm sooo happy Samsung decided to go with Micro-USB on this device).

Anyone tried Nyrius ARIES Prime/pro Digital Wireless HDMI Transmitter & Receiver System on note 10.1 yet? I think this will be the perfect solution for wireless display.

It might be the older 5 pin version when the newer Samsungs have moved onto 11 pin adapters.
You could either upgrade or get an 5 pin to 11 pin adapter.
On a somewhat related note: Does this tablet have miracast support?

I tried the Samsung HDMI adapter I bought last year for my Note 2. It works for the Note 2 but not Note 3. The HML adapter will show like a dark snow effect and without it on it is a blank TV. I'm not sure if it has something to do with the TV resolution :/

You need the new version that they released with the s4

I just purchased the black on mentioned in the 2 post hope that works ok.
MHL works
l picked up one from Monoprice that came with the 5 to 11 pin converter. Worked fine with the tablet and my S3 watching streamed content with the Hulu plus subscription included with the tablet.
I'm sorry but I am not following this thread very well. If I want to connect my 10.1 2014 to a HDMI TV what exactly do I need (as has been confirmed to work)?

I haven't tested it but It works with my S4, says its compatible with Note 3 and Note 8 so should work on this.
I haven't tested this on my new 10.1 2014 yet, BUT
It works great on my Galaxy S 4 so I'm confidant it will work. I normally don't order generic and always go with Samsung OEM, but since it's near impossible to find a genuine Samsung one for a reasonable price I ordered from mycablemartDOTCOM since I LOVE their HDMI cables/adapters.

My Note 2 adapter works just fine!
I purchased the note 2 adapter from Samsung and it works perfectly with my 2014 edition!
bought this but doesn't connect
Cable Matters Micro-USB to HDMI MHL Adapter in Black and Charging Cable in Black 1 Metre* from Amazon.
It connects straight to my htc one x but not my galaxy 10.1 note.
Is it just not compatible or do I need to change settings on my tab?
My mhl works fine that I got for my s4. It also works for my note 3 with the USB 3.0. Since the galaxy s3 you need a mhl 2.0 adapter. They have extra pins. The old mhl won't work on newer Samsung devices
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
The catch being it is a battery drain. Net negative even when charging. You can not even watch a complete movie if streaming Netflix on the S4.
Near worthless as a result on the S4.
hi, my name is Andre, and i'm from brazil...
i want to by the S3 NEO Duos, BUT i need to know if it has MIRACAST / SCREEN MIRRORING, because i use this function a lot...
if no has, there another CFW or ROM that enable this function???
THANKS A LOT
Yes, the S3 Neo has mirror screen, even you can toggle it from the status bar. There are some TV's which are not supported but if you own a Samsung TV, it will work without problems!
i have a philips smart tv, (that works whith my old asus zenfone 5, laptot windows 8 and tablet samsung galaxy tabpro 8,4) an ez cast dongle and chromecast dongle...

I don't know if your tv has a wireless interference like wifi etc. But if it doesn't has it then i think through a HDMI port you can do that. You will need HDMI chord and may be a TV Adapter for galaxy which once called MHL. may be i am wrong because i have never use it.
