Hello,
I've just purchased a Cenovo Mini PC 2 (Atom Z8300 Cherry Trail 4/64 GB). Which runs fine, other that it overheats (temperatures up to 80 C, and then it hangs).
Anyone else with this particular model? I'm looking for a DIY solution for a better cooling.
Another issue that I'm having is being unable to enter the BIOS (any keyboard key at startup doesn't do a thing).
Update...I've stress tested the PC through the Aida64 System Stability test, which ran 4 hrs without freezing the system. Max temp was 85C but the system remained stable.
I did not suceed to reproduce sys freezing and will post further details.
Other than that I haven't been able to enter the BIOS. Also I didn't get the reply from the Cenovo support (a week passed from contacting them).
Update #2
It seems that the issue is the graphics driver. Updating to a newer version doesn't solve the problem. Manufacturer (Cenovo) should provide the updated drivers, but they don't have the customer support so...
Last update. Problem was with the Intel graphics driver. When the driver is removed, the PC works flawlessly. I'm now trying the various versions of Intel HD drivers. There is no drivers from the manufacturer though.
Hi for the latest hd drivers and not only that you have to install the Intel Driver Update Utility
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/detect.html
and automatically will install all the latest drivers
for the bios that is odd usually with the delete or esc button you should enter the bios set up in my case thats how i do it in pipo x7 and by the way i am also waiting for mine cenovo mini pc 2 lets see how it will perform.
Hello, i had the overheating problems and i install one little fan on top, you can see on you tube if you search cenovo mini pc 2 problems.
I enter the bios pressing escape on boot
I have no sound after some updates of the drivers with SDI
Any idea how i can install windows 7 on this box?
Hello all,
I've used Intel Update Utility. Both drivers which the application displays as suited are not good - they cause random crashes. I always do a clean install, using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller).
Also I can't find the audio driver - when the system initially came preinstalled it functioned. After reset of a Windows, audio does not work (for me not an issue since I have USB sound card much better than one installed).
I'm currently using this little thing without Intel GPU drivers and it is stable (running days without a problem), but without GPU acceleration (which also is not a big issue, because everything in 2d works just about the same, even 1080p Youtube and videos).
Confirmed - Esc on boot enters the BIOS - thanks.
Maybe, just maybe, high temperatures are cause of Intel GPU driver messing up the system?

Since the BIOS is accessible, one can try to use Win7 installation USB, and to try booting from that.
I suppose it is doable, but the issue would probably be the drivers.

Confirmed with esc button you enter the bios, good mod Νικο i will try with some thermal pads between the heatsink and the plate elevate the cenovo with some bottle caps and put a fan below and if i dont get any drops in temps then the alternative is to make the mod you make, i dont think you can install windows 7 it was a long talk since the pipo x7 but cannot be done due to uefi here is a link i ve found but use at your own risk http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorial...e-firmware-interface-install-windows-7-a.html
I do not recomended.

I dont think is the gpu driver its the space of the cenovo to compact no airways to get hot air out the same isuues short of had the pipo x7 but x7 was made from aluminium and with a little moding (heatsinks,thermal pads, and a fan to the side never passed 50c)
windows still crashes
Before the mod i try one Laptop Cooling Pad and i take some more minutes before windows crash. The air not flow properly because they make holes only in the bottom.
I also replace the thermal pad between the heatsink and the cpu with a little medal plague and thermal silicone. The temp now is 45-50 c but i still have some problems.
The box can play hd youtube videos for hours, but it freeze finally when nothing is running on windows.
I replace the power supply, and some vga drivers but the problem of freezing continue...

Try uninstalling and cleaning the display drivers with DDU - Display Driver Uninstaller.
Then use just generic Microsoft driver and test the unit.
I have exactly the same problem with Intel drivers....otherwise the mini pc runs stable and fine, no matter what you throw at it (albeit without GPU acceleration but I don't play 3D games on it its slow for that anyhow)
As for the mounting fan on it, I really wanted a silent PC and don't want to do that (there are other passive methods but one must disassemble case - don't want that either).
Fan
Thanks tarmiricmitarmiricmi i will try your way with drivers.
The fan i use, is 12 volts and i give only 5 volts from the usb plug (red +, black - ) and the fan is silent because run in slower speed because the volts.

I saw your video on Youtube - it is a good solution. However, there are other things that could be improved in order to improve air flow. Thermal pad could be replaced with this, and instead a aluminion/iron plate (that you took off), a copper one could be installed (copper is better insulating material than those two). I think that with those mods temperature would be lower 5-10 degrees C. But I do not want to invest a penny in the unit It is actually now running as my only PC and it suits my needs really good (for now - light use).
Problem with the GPU drivers uninstalling is Windows Update. When you uninstall Intel drivers and reboot the system, Windows Update will automatically locate drivers from the MS server, and download and install them (with the same problems - freezing again). Now, Windows Update in Win 10 can't be disabled / or some of the updates cannot be marked to be not downloaded as on a Win7/8 (MS really messed up Win10 update). They provided the fix which can do that.
Now, what you need to do is:
1. Download Display Driver Uninstaller,
2. Run it in Safe mode , remove the driver and reboot,
3. Download this
4. Start it, find the Windows Update Intel drivers and hide it,
5. Voila. Now you can use Mini PC 2 with generic MS drivers (without freezing) and without automatic updating of Intel GPU drivers (again).
Well did some testing my self 30 minutes youtube videos 1080p max temp 60c, then test a movie in kodi about 20 minutes playback max temp 53c no freezing in both tests only thing i did was as i said a themal pad between heatsink and the plate and also put a fan underneath the cenovo.

Update for the cenovo mini pc 2
I contact with the company who sell me the cenovo, they say try to reinstall windows from the recovery partition.
After the recovery, the cenovo still freeze if i do nothing for 2-3 min.
The windows ask for activation and don't activate with the serial of cenovo
I contact again with the company and they send me one crack on my mail to activate windows.
Before cenovo i use the Mini M8S TV Box Quad-core Amlogic S905 Android 5.1 2GB RAM 8GB ROM and i was very satisfied with the 1/3 of the money of cenovo...

The link is dead in step 3 so if anyone need it you can download it from here http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/2/F22D5FDB-59CD-4275-8C95-1BE17BF70B21/wushowhide.diagcab
Even though i dont need it because my unit runs great hope that will help others.
I'm expecting to receive my own 4/64 unit in about three weeks. Thanks for all the operating knowledge database you're providing in this thread, guys.
I plan on using the box in addition to my current Mini M8S II (905X) box which is running excellently.

Hello, I have a problem with my MK809IV stick. It seems to be a hardware problem or a feature of my device, maybe you can help me. I can't flash any rom to my stick, because when I plug it in my PC, I have a message "USB device not recognized". I tried different methods, such as pressing Reset key or making contact between 8 and 9 pads of NAND - no result. At first case I can see an Android picture on the screen (sure, if I connect it to TV), at second case nothing really happens: even CPU stay cold, no picture on sreen.
As I know, it's a problem of devices (not only MK809IV), which have PCB, marked CYX_809III V5_0 20140510.
Please, help. My device works bad, there is a low FPS in films, and I can't flash any ROM. I spent a lot of hours trying different methods and searching for information.
Same here

I have the same device, having the same issues, and i have tried almost all what you have done so far. Really looking forward, if some one could help with this. I want to install linux on this tv stick.
Look at this thread:

It is almost the same device (same PCB, but sell as a "CX919"). We are able to boot on linux with an sd-card, but (up to now) I cannot make the wifi works (it is a uncommon wifi module: ESP8089).
Hi guys. Help greatly appreciated.
I bought a Cenovo MiniPC from Gearbest 2 months ago and from day 1 I've been getting blue screen errors. I immediately reported this to Gearbest and as you can imagine with the time difference between here (Sweden) and there (China) I was getting slow responses. Cut a long story short they 1st offered me a $20 refund from a $90 device, I accepted at the time as the errors have not appeared for over a week and thought it could be the end of it. 2 weeks after this the errors came back and it wasn't just blue screen on startup but it would freeze up during a session. I again reported this demanding for a full refund and they refused. I opened a dispute with PayPal and after a while they offered me a further $20 which I refused, they then sent me an email and said if I close the dispute they will give me a full refund. I was hesitant whether this was a scam but I went along with it and to their word I got a refund 3 days later.
After I got my refund I thought I may as well try and fix it myself now so I started in BIOS and fiddled with some switches for the emmc, one was 'secure erase', I don't know what was going through my head or what I thought the outcome would be but I enabled it and restarted. Now it just boots into BIOS and I am guessing the reason is that the emmc is now blank.
So ive now got a minipc with a blank emmc, I have loaded a bootable copy of Windows 10 setup to a usb and forced a usb boot in the bios but nothing happens.
I have opened the case to look for a emmc card I can take out and put in my laptop to reformat with an os but I couldn't find anything, there was a metal grill on one side that looks like it is hiding stuff and it is impossible to lift the grill off.
There is a tf card reader on the side so i am thinking that I can extract a Android image onto the card and boot from the card but I am not sure how and whether it will work.
Can i get some assistance in this please.

Hello, I've got same problem, 0xc000025 error code, arrived my tentative to upgrade the PC to Windows 10 (the PC arrived with 8.1 installed)
No way to boot my USB in the bios. Have you solved? Someone can help?
try and format the usb stick to 4k sectors before using the win10 media creator, think that's how i did it
Thank you for replying and sorry for the late response.
Have you got the same mini pc?
How do you format stick into 4k sectors? What format did you use (Fat32,NTFS...)?
fat32, in windows format dialog box its "allocation unit size" set to 4096
to boot from usb the stick has to be recognised as bootable before u can run the bios command to override boot device
yep i figured it out thanks. ive now got another problem and this is totally my fault if it cant be fixed...
in bios i unchecked the option to use integrated graphics so now when i boot i see nothing

intesting, daft thing to do tho, u could try borrow a usb gfx card?
Does anybody know how to reset the bios, because I've disabled the usb ( stupid x 10000 ) and I cannot use the usb ports (mouse and keyboard)
same problem here... I've disabled xhci support and no USB right now. The problem is that removing the battery does not make the bios to default.
I've still got the issue with no picture. I need to reset the bios but not sure how. Or maybe I can connect it to my laptop and get it working from there
yo. just got myself a cenovo mini pc 2, and it runs windows 10, but it's not legit. That bothers me, so I want to run android or linux. You guys mention that it's running a BIOS, but i think perhaps the mini pc 2 is running non-BIOS/EFI, because there's no preboot screen, and USB drives don't boot up at all.
Hi !
Did anyone got a chance at installing another os ?
I have a Cenovo mini pc 2 and I had troubles with sound. I had no issue for a week or two and then (maybe windows update, who knows) the sound would switch to the speakers output instead of the hdmi one. (it was plugged on my tv) so I decided (stupidly) to uninstall the audio components with the hope that windows would redetect and reinstall them with better drivers. Well, that didn't work and now in my device manager are two unknown components which don't work and I have no sound at all. If anyone found the global drivers for the device, or could make me a screenshot of their devices panel...
In the meantime I would probably try my luck to install openelec or kodibuntu on it but I couldn't manage to boot on bios. Did anyone tried using the Advanced startup option of windows 10 ?

I still have the problem with no graphics.
I know the problem as I disabled the onboard graphics in bios... I know **** head move.
I have tried to remove the lead leading from the bios to the motherboard in hopes it will reset it but nothing.
Is there anything I can do from USB do you think? Such as flash a new bios.

I have a Cenovo Mini PC 2 with 2GB/32GB. BIOS/EFI/set-up is accessed via pressing F2 after boot. Sometimes it will accept the F2 request, sometimes not. Not sure if this is an issue related to the keypress timing after boot being critical, or the unit being generally fussy (maybe selection of which of the 4 + 1 USB sockets for keyboard is critical?). Only wandered around the BIOS settings a few times but there was all manner of Android-specific options available.
Strangely, when the F2 key is accepted, a message is flashed briefly on the screen saying "Esc key pressed" or similar, as if the "Esc" key was the BIOS access key.
The NexBox T11 InsydeH20 UEFI / BIOS / set-up options are near identical to the Cenovo Mini PC 2. There is a video walkthough of the Netbox T11 Setup Utility although it does not mention the very first screen and options seen when F2 is pressed. The Cenovo Mini PC 2 very first screen titled "First Page" can be viewed at

I initially had issues attempting USB boot of Macrium Reflect with my Cenovo Mini PC 2. Eventually solved by one or more amendments of changing brand of USB stick, using Rufus to generate the bootable USB stick via formatting to FAT32 with 4096 bytes cluster size, and disabling fast UEFI in settings. USB stick was inserted into the Mini PC 2 and UEFI / BIOS was accessed by pressing F2 immediately after boot. From the first setting screen, "Boot Manager" was selected and the USB device was visible and able to be highlighted to boot from.
Hi,

Graphics drivers for cenovo pc mini 1
I Had all the issues which is in this thread so i took the steps as follows it came with windows 10 dual booting android when i looked on the partitions it was a joke several all using up space i entered bios disabled secure emmc created a windows 8.1 32 bit usb boot disk using rufus selecting gpt also fat 32 16k sectors , it worked once i entered install i delete those partitions all of them until i had a single 32 gig partition which i installed a clean windows 8.1 leaving me 20 gigs after install now the problem i have like a idiot i forgot to take a note of the device id vendor etc of the display which does not even appear in the basic adaptor tree in device manager ,, i have tried several drivers but none worked the website who made this device needs a good slap, no drivers no support but a nice device with much potential and why lock the bios to 32bit? what is wrong with these people in the mean time
if anyone has the drivers for this device please share them i would be grateful and if needed i can make a guide on how to turn this little device in to a full windows computer its locked on windows 8 in the bios and most settings in the bios is locked to but i have obtained bios editor tools for this american trends i will give it a try later once i have full gpu control the rest i do not care as it will be used with bluetooth but intel hd drivers or the device if would be appreciated
Kind Regards
This is a windows tablet, but I think it would be cool to have this run android as well, so I tried a few emulators running under windows 10, but they are very slow, unstable or didnt run at all. Doid4X, an Nox worked, Andy refused to start).
I kept the Nox App Player, cause that was the one I found most responsive of these.
Perhaps the fact that they barely meets the minimum RAM requirement is a major cause for it being slow.
Then I decided to try the android-x86, which is not an emulator, but an andoid port to x86, and will run natively.
The Lollipop EFI image does work as a live usb media , and I was able to install it to another usb stick, but that got stuck on the aandoid logo when booting. The 4.4r3 EFI image did work better, and was able to install to a second usb stick and boot up into android.
I must say that android-x86 did impress me. It feels quite quick and responsive, and any app I have tried so far does run. Even MineCraft PE works well. The display and touchscreen works well, and volume buttons works.
There are a few driver related issues though, here is a list of some things not working:
- onboard wifi
- onboard Bluetooth
- Sensors (auto rotate will not work)
- Audio out and mic
- Power button
- Battery status
- Camera
I did a few tests, and as a workaround I did use an external usb wifi adapter to get internet working. Also connecting a usb headset with mic did work fine, external keyboard. Also a non branded bluetooth adapter was accepted and the BT icon was enabled, but it didnt find any devices when searching. Even a logitech webcam did work with opencam.
Given the current state of andoid-x86 on this tab, it doesnt make sense to partition the disk to get a dual boot. But if there was working drivers for wifi and audio etc, this could be a decent android system.
Now the android version of the tab 8 looks quite similar to the w1-810, so that makes me wonder how much of the hardware components that are the same. And if it may be possible to get the drivers from the original android to work on android-x86.
I will try to list the hw configuration as I can read from devicemanager/drivers in win10:
wifi: broadcom 4330 / Sound: intel SST audio device / camera: Intel Imaging signal processor 2400 / Bluetooth: BCMBTBUS / Sensors: BMA2x2 ( BMA250E) / Battery control hardware ID is PNP0C0A
Any ideas on how to get these things working would be great.
forum administrators:
I did tag this thread with iconia-tab-8, but for some reason it will not show under "Acer Iconia Tab 8 Discussion" list.
Did I miss something, or doesnt the tag system work properly.
Is there anything I can do to fix this?
I also have this tablet and I am also eager for installing fully functional Android on it. Please guys help us on this. Thanks in advance.
News about Acer Iconia Tab W1-810 with Android
Hi guys, some new about it?
Hello,
i brought a Mpman Converter 10 tablet past week, and i am facing some weird issues and seems no one want's or know to help me. Everything started with the offer, it was advertised that this tablet is running windows 10, but when i brought it i saw on the box it was written windows 8. I was thinking that no big issue and i downloaded windows 10 anyupgrade or what is the name, i left it over night to make the update. When i woke up the tablet was frozen i restarted the tablet but the OS was not starting, i tried startup repair with all the combination but nothing helped me. So i decided to download a windows 10 iso from microsoft and install on tablet, with a lot of issues because the manufacturer didn't gave me any cd with drivers nor on the website no driver is provided i contacted the manufacturer via e-mail but he was not handy at all and send me back to my reseller. My issue is that all the drivers are installed on the OS but the touch screen is not working corectly it got an Silead MSSL touch screen with the hardware ID: ACPI\VEN_MSSL&DEV_1680.
The issue is that the touch screen got an offset when i touch the screen and also seems that the x and y axis is reversed i tried all the drivers what were recommended by others for the similar touch screen.
I can't find any help i hope someone could give me some hints what to do next.

Hello. I have the same problème with my tablet mpman converter 8. And i tried to install reinstall windows but the problem persists
Hello everyone, I have been reading and respecting you for a long time.
They gave me a Mediacom tablet with Android to repair or throw away as a favor, I'm not asking for money and I'm not a professional, just self-taught. It basically had half the screen where the touch screen didn't work, so in addition to trying with the "pizoelectric" lighter as seen on youtube and various apps, I decided to try replacing the touch screen as well. Once done, the problem remained as it was. I tried to do the factory reset and now I'm stuck in the installation because I can't click on the buttons to finish the installation. I used to at least rotate the screen and run it on the good half. But now I'm stuck in the installation. I also tried to take a usb dongle to attach a mouse to it, but it doesn't see it, also tried on the smartphone, but it doesn't see it anyway. 1. Confirmed that it is not damage to the touch screen. Can I finish installation via adb shell? What do you think is the problem? is it software? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
It's hard to advise anything without writing the model name of the device. Adb host will not work when it is not enabled in the device.

The model is smarpad iyo 10, but I doubt it serves as information, since it is probably an Android 9 problem. I thought it was possible at boot to enable a shell and complete the installation or maybe rotate the screen.
Thank you for answering.
The Rockchip A55 RK3566 processor in the Mediacom IYO 10, supports USB OTG, so a mouse connected to an OTG adapter should work.
Which adapter did you use?
The touch screen for the Mediacom IYO 10 is not outstandingly complicated and has no chipset in it. So the touch is controlled by the mother or daughter board electronics, which you probably did not replace when you replaced the screen.

The Otg adapter is from Tek-one to-g-15, it may be that it doesn't work, in fact it doesn't work on the mobile either, I try to change it.
As you said, the touch had no chip, just a connector to the motherboard.
An information that I have omitted may be useful, at the beginning the tablet also had another problem, in some circumstances that I have not explored, the screen or the resolution was resized in half, presumably in the working half. Almost immediately the scaling issue was fixed by randomly activating a gui option in hidden developer mode.
Now, excluding the Otg that I'm going to change, do I have any possibility of continuing the installation via shell?
Thanks for the precious information.
You probably don't have TWRP so you won't do anything with the build.prop file.
The lack of a shell is the result of not enabling debugging in the developer options, available only after starting android.
Look for a working OTG adapter.
Maybe this thread will help you.
