Hi there,
so have the latest update from VS and downloaded and installed the flash beta from the VS website - i can watch video from Youtube and it looks good, but no Fancast or NBC - a function of flash beta or something else? what is everyone else finding?
running stock but rooted
Happy Holidays

G Tablet: Vegan beta 4 ROM
Where to start?
failblog.org
megaupload videos. This may be because of my internet speed though as it doesn't load fast enough.
I will try to edit this list with sites I know where flash does not work properly.
Other flash like chatango works but it turns ghosts(3D like or blurry).
Fancast used to work for me but after TnT upgrade is not working anymore.
It's been hit or miss with me on Fancast. It seems like the older episodes (say from last year) work fine, but the newer ones don't. That's the only pattern that I have seen to date.
Good Day Everyone,
I have been searching the forums for a few days and installed a number of apk's all of which don't seem to work.
There seems to be so many posts on Chinese tablets and getting Android Market to work. And a number of work arounds that I have tried have so far been unsuccessful. Many of us have bought the WM8650 models (VIA8650,High-performance 800MHZ CPU+300MHZ).
So my question is can't we collaborate as a group who own these tablets to donate an amount (say $10 or $20 each) to the developer that ports an Android version which runs all the Google apps and Market?
That way we won't have to look for workarounds, and those who purchase after us will have a much easier upgrade path.

I have the wm8650 and can't access to the android market, even though there is an icon for it. I get an error that says, "Authentication error. Please check your account/password". Have you figured out the problem yet?
Not yet
Hi guytimes.
The Android Market apk that I loaded won't open, however it seems the pre-loaded Market app on the device only shows applications from China(did not return any results when I searched for Angry Birds). The icons look similar but I'm not sure if the pre-loaded app goes to the Official Android Market place.(If someone knows, please could you correct me?).
In the interim, to at least to get some apps loaded, I managed to get the application from Slideme ( an Android application website) which works well. It does not have all the apps on the official Market but it will let you download and install. I am still trying to find a way to get the Google apps and Market place working or to Port a different ROM to this type of device.

Wow, that stinks. I had no idea the marketplace was blocked on these devices. Please let me know if you find a real work around and I'll do the same.
Hi everyone,
I too opt-in for a possible collaboration.
I'm still waiting my baby to arrive.
Thanks
Thank you boshkop,
Let's hope we can get enough people to agree. And then a technical person to port Android for us.
By the way I found another nice app market at Androidpit
What do you mean by "porting the Android"?! The device already runs Android 2.2!! Am I missing something here?

As far as I understood, he meant that Android market doesn't work and no apps can be installed even via .APK files, am I correct?
I just found a possible solution for the AndroidMarket (using the application Applanet).
Check here (the last post):
androidpit.com/en/android/forum/thread/420722/Table-7-wm8650-VIA-926-REVIEW
I have this tablet and I can tell you, it run 90% of the apk aplications
No need to have an android market. You can install the applanet market and get all free without registration and any complicated steps.
Now the only thing I'm searching is to know how to root the tablet.
I can access all the system files directly and edit any archive but need some special permisions.
Hopefully soon we can find soemthing for this awesome tablet.
rom
Hi everyone, I will have a ROM posted for the Eken m009s with the via 8650 cpu within the next few days, so far I removed the chinese apk's, a different lockscreen (froyo default), and launcher pro as the default home screen, also, Slide Me marketplace works perfectly on this, and Applanet does as well, the market I tried also fails to open.

Unfortunately there are at least 3-4 models with same tech specs.
The only difference is their LED color or if they vibrate on startup or not...
So far, the only way with the custom ROMs for these tablets is trial-and-error.
I tried on last night and it is stuck on a loading screen tried the install again and nothing... mine has green led and does vibrate on startup

Just keep trying with different ROMs made for the Green LED tablets.
Thats the problem the only roms I found that will actually load on my tablet dont work the other green led roms wont even load???
I know I'm suppose to find the solution 1st but I have been browsing for some time and I'm little unsure which is which.
I have just rooted my samsung galaxy s2 and it seems to load fine aft rebooting but I have problem downloading the apps to unlock the phone sim (apps by chainfire). When i try to dl the apps 'There are no Android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account'. (1st time rooting, still new with all this).
Really appreciate some help here...?
No Need to worry for this...I have a 100% working solution for this...Only think you have to do is follow the Link below and do the steps mentioned in that link and then Enjoy downloading millions of Application from Android market7

the application is Chinese too bet its no problem the only thing you must do is click on the big circle let it run and within one minute its complete a confirmation screen pops up this is in Chinese did you must click on the right side is the confirm site
the only drawback confirmation screen for root access are in Chinese but you know what site is the OK button the right side
if you're not sure its work download a root checker 4 so far I know this works for a lot of Android devices for me it works on two different phones so it must B pretty good
Hello Everyone!!
Just wanted to check if anyone playing around Airtel Internet TV (needless to say it'a based on Android TV).
If yes, from where I can get its Firmware/ROM and its system APKs.
Thanks

I cant find anything in internet except your thread, i wanted to root my airtel internet tv box also, it runs android marshmallow, have you tried finding using the codename ganesa? how did you find the codename ganesa?
From browsing system files using File Explorer, how to start tinkering with this device ?
Do we need to contact any specific Devs ?
My Airtel DTH subscription just ran out, and I have no intentions of renewing it (do most of my TV watching on the phone via JioTV). Unfortunately, without an active subscription the Airtel Internet TV box locks you out of not just the DTH part, but also the Internet part -- you cannot use it as a simple Android TV device.
So have been searching for ways to root the device and/ or bypass the subscription check. Any ideas? Hoping there is a way to wipe out Airtel customised OS and install a vanilla version of Android TV. Or even an Oreo port if that is possible.
Request to senior members to guide us on rooting android TV

Almost all devices ship with either of the above two categories of firmware, though things don’t end there. Independent developers who like to customize their devices beyond the standard options provided often tend to release the fruits of their labor for the rest to enjoy, in form of custom ROMs. The more open the platform, the more independent development it attracts, a good example of which is the independent custom ROM development for Android.
In case of proprietary firmware such as iOS and Windows Phone 7, there is often little or no room for customization of the operating system itself but regardless of that, developers still tend to release custom ROMs bundled with useful tools and hacks applied to provide functionality beyond the stock features.
someone pls post airtel internet tv apk
airtel smart box is just a box without subscription
The airtel internet tv is good till it has a active subscription. But once it's over its a stupid box which can't be used any where so any idea to make it work independently. Can we change its os so it becomes totally a smart box and not a setop box anymore as I don't have any intention to renew my subscription ever. So atleast the box will be useful for me.
I have got the source code can anyone develop a rom which can work without dish

i need this too. Now it is upgraded as Airtel XStream if someone can take it up i can install it in my android box
Any response on this? I recently got one upgraded as the old internet tv box went bad and stopped working... Would love to be able to remove subscription check on this new xstream box
@anshul123
I got this trick from a @Dhairy
Not very convenient but I have a way to enjoy apps without recharging DTH, Go to settings ---> apps ---> Airtel Xstream ---> Force Stop
Now, press back button and move back to apps list -----> Look for play store and open from the settings, to your surprise play store will open.
Now, search and install ATV Launcher (Or any launcher of your choice) -----> Open ATV Launcher from app store
Voila you can see all apps there and they would open normally.
Actually the check is done by their Launcher so if we could root and delete that launcher and install android tv home ( Google launcher for android Tv), then theoretically that would bypass the subscription check also.
Unfortunately, you have to force stop Airtel Xstream every time till then. Also I would recommend not to upgrade your box as they may fix this vulnerability and use some other method to check for subscription. Till then enjoy!
I have Airtal Xstream Box and it works perfect on it. However it would be great if someone can come up with a custom ROM for Airtel Xstream Box.
