Hello,
I searched the forums and googled this without any luck... Does anyone know how to install Android on the old Acer Aspire One ZG5 A110 (8GB SSD)?
Windows is REALLY slow on this machine
Ubuntu fails every time I do an update
So, instead of throwing this in the trash, I wanted to install something that makes it useful at least.
Thanks,
Khalid
I found this and tried 3 different 4.0 iso files with no luck... They work but the camera and browser don't.
http://www.android-x86.org/download
I tried installing the eeepc build from android-x86 and its working fine except for the apps which are mostly not compatible with my old device acer aspire one A110.
Just got one of these Acer Aspire One ZG5 models and I'm curious what it can run now in 2023 .
So far I tried Win11 lite , tiny11 didn't work, and I heard Linux Mint would be suitable but I've never used Linux , so what about Android ?
I just bought this HDMI DLNA / Miracast receiver stick. The model seems to be a "Ugoos UG017" aka "Chromecast MD321" aka "MOCREO iPush M1" aka "HI762 HI763 (Chromecast)" aka "CX-V3" aka "PTV-2R" and possible more names. The hardware is:
- Rockchip RK2928-G @~1GHz
- 256MB DDR3
- 16 MB NAND
- RT3188 WLAN-Chip
- Push-switch to toggle DLNA / Miracast mode
There seems to be a UART available on some test points on the PCB. Any ideas on how to connect to that (settings)?
DLNA through BubbleUPnP is more or less working (skipping seems to lock the stick, playing playlists too), but Miracast is not, at least not on my Xperia L with CyanogenMod 11 / FXP 333.I tried the firmware for the "Pipo X5" and "MOCREO iPush M1" (both ~14MB) and both worked. Both state version "3.0.0-rc2". I would be thrilled if someone could link to a newer (and hopefully more bug-free) version than that...
EDIT: If found a link to a much better firmware (v5.0.0-rc2) for the CX-V3 here. DLNA is much better. Miracast still does not work, but I suppose that's just FXP 333...
if someone is interested this firmware allowed me to miracast with a samsung galaxy tab s
tried other firmwares (CR-M200,ugoos-ug017,CX-V3) but only this was updated

Hi Lucize,
I tried the firmware you posted, but the problem remains: "Impossible to initiate screen mirroring due to a HW problem"
What Android version do you have on your TAB S? Is it a 8.4 or 10.5 version?
Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much, lucize! It worked! I was able to miracast with my Galaxy S5 using the built in screen mirroring function. My android version is 4.4.4.
I got a Tronsmart CX-V3 dongle and I was wondering how to update it, since Tronsmart has -of course- no updates. So tried to find some more clones who could have an update and maybe even the manufacturer.
The latest I managed to find is version 9.0.0, dated 21-4-2015, by Ergotech. Their MD3054 and MD3056 seem to be the same according to the doc file in MD3054's update (8.0.0 rc1) (*1), so I downloaded MD3056's (*2) and flashed it. Sunchip-Tech strongly advices to update the software(*3), so i didn't have any hesitations.
A PDF included in 3056's update as well in the *3 link, indicates that there is OTA update option via the manufacturer (Sunchip-Tech). This means that maybe all Miracast sticks of this manufacturer can be updated directly by Sunchip-Tech. Keep in mind that the menu language will be switched to Chinese after the update, but it can be very easily switched back to English in the settings menu.
Ergotech's download page can be found in link *4.
While searching, I noticed than some RK2928 based Miracast dongles were called Lollipop (not because of Android). I searched a bit more and found Rockchip's user guide for RK2928 wireless HDMI dongles(*5), which calls RK2928 dongles as Lollipop. Seems that the reference Rockchip design is followed by the manufacturers. In that user guide I noticed the settings screen is same as my dongle's, but the main screen picture is different though same to some other RK2928/Lollipop dongles I had seen while searching. So probably there is an other manufacturer who kept the original main screen and maybe has even newer software. I did some more searching and the latest I could find is CloudNet's 3.21.00 (dated 28-5-2015) for CR-M200S. This one has OTA settings too, unveiling its manufacturer is Hotack. I believe it is a newer version than Ergotech's/Sunchip-Tech's version 9.0.0 because it has boot version 1.41 instead of 1.40.
CR-M200S download page is at link *6 and in lucize's post too.
Relatively new firmwares are also available by these companies:
Emtec (emtec-international.com/en-eu/Firmware-F100)
Ugoos (ugoos.net/A3S)

I can approve that the CR-M200S firmware you linked works quite well. Have you tried the OTA update too?
Latest firmware (MD3056PW 3/sept/15) is from ergotech. Version 10. However there is no dlna subtitle support yet. I am waiting for this firmware to appear soon. None of the firmwares support subtitles over dlna. There is a metadata code that can be used on the firmware to support subs. My nas network disk (twonky server) supports metadata as most do. I am using version 10 without any problems. The only other problem I have is my tablets resolution which is not supported, 1280x 800, which gives me black borders on the sides on the casting TV (when on landscape). I have tried all firmwares with the same result.
There is a metadata code in ezcast forum that they have used to display subtitles over dlna which I am not allowed to post.
Also I have managed to use kodi/xbmc to display videos over dlna but no subs support again. There is a YouTube video and files you need in order to accomplish this.

I tried this vs the CR-M200S firmware, and the CR-M200S firmware is still the best imo. With my iphone that is the only one where mirroring works, and it seems to be less buggy.
Still awaiting a new better update than the CR-M200S . Youtube doesnt work with any of them!
have someone tried mirroring wich this device on wp 8.1?

I also have the same problem. WiDi of windows 8.1 (with supported hardware) does not work with the Chinese miracast dongle RK2928. I get the message:
Your HD digital display device did not supply the required identification data (EDID)
I found this site from sunchip, they say its workin on win 8.1 http://www.sunchip-tech.com/prod_view.aspx?TypeId=12&Id=71&FId=t3:12:3
on the screen captures you can see the firmware versión is 6.0.0 rc3, Im looking for it now in order to test.
working on wp 8.1 witch the soft from ugoos.net/A3S

Thanks. I will try this too.
I was able to test ergotech v10 firmware. After extensive tests It only worked with WIDI 3.5.41.0 driver. None of the latest intel WIDI drivers worked.
I will try to install ugoos firnmware to see if it works with latest intel WiDi drivers.
Thanks.
Update
Ugos A3S does not work on my Lenovo T420 laptop and Widi Intel 4.3.4.0 (((( I get the same message as before.
Update:
No firmware works with latest WiDi driver.
The only WiDi driver which works with any rk2928 firmware (I tried 3 firmwares) is 3.5.41.0.
Hardware:
Intel i5-2520M VPro
Intel Processor Graphics 3000 HD
Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 WiFi
Drivers
Graphic 9.17.10.4229
Wireless: 15.18.0.1
Software
WiDi application 3.5.41.0 installed 4.3.4.0 recommended (by intel widi update tool but is not working)..
The rk2928 firmware is miracast dlna airplay compatible, without any subtitle support over dlna.
For summary if you want widi support under windows 8 (8.1) then for me only intel widi 3.5.41.0 driver is working.
Also if you want dlna support under windows 8.1 it is possible. Samsung did produce a allshare excellent application which they have now discontinued, and is working like charm under windows 8.1.
Search google and download the Samsung allshare with version: 2.1.0.12031.10 (also called 2.1.0.12031_10)
Last point. For me ergotech V10 is the best firmware on Rk2928 dongle (as I have tested. My dongle used to display a connection name: lollipop)
ios9 airplay
Since ios9 update on iphone Airplay does not work on these dongles any more! and none of the firmware.
The latest firmware located on the ergo-tech website (ergotech.com.tw/tw/Download_detail.aspx?key= firmware v.11.0.0 and 3.0.0 here) claims that it supports ios9, but i have tried ios9.0.2 and 9.1 on these with iphone and it does not work.
Does anyone know a way of getting ios9 airplay to work?
There is a RK2928 dongle which claims to have ios9 support, the Visonicom RealCast VMD-RK156 realcastptv.com/tag/WiFi-display-dongle-Rockchip-RK2928) but i cannot find a firmware download for it.

Firmware 3.0 disables the wifi. So it does not work.
Firmware 11 has problem with the quality. Frames are skipping and video picture gets distorted.
I have tested firmware 11 extensively it is has flaws in video quality. Only ergotech firmware 10 works flawlessly.
I am back on firmware 10.
Tested hardware: miracast rk2928, Lenovo T420 with windows 8.1, intel HD 3000 graphics card, and widi 3.5.41.0 and intel centrino ultimate N-6300 and KODI (xbmc)..

Hi !
I think i am close using Chuwi Hi8 Pro or Cube iWorks 10 System.
But my efforts have been stopped as i was stupid enough to flash the newest FW that DISABLES booting Android.
Can someone answer here who has NOT flashed the new Firmware.
I need someone with this version:
BIOS: American Megatrends / Aptio, Core Version 5.011, Project BW3_VT4_C.10E
OR very similar. NOT the 109 version / BT4 found on the Trekstor page !
If you got it i have the tool to back it up to a file and THEN i guess we can make Android work.
Ender
Edit: got the file but something is wrong, have a Brick now
Hey all,
I just got a MXQ Pro+ 4K (Android 7.1.2) hx_s905x TV box with 3GB RAM / 32GB ROM. Tested SU root with a root testing app, says the device is rooted ok. I checked for software updates and it says that Android is up to date:
Android Version: 7.1.2
Security patch level: May 5 2017.
Kernel version: 3.14.29 (March 2018)
Build: hx_s905x-userdebug 7.1.2 NHG47L 20180316 test keys Rev B5
I can not get my Logitech Rumblepad 2 wireless gamepad to work with it. Trying to avoid flashing a new ROM or anything that could brick it so I'm only looking for drivers for it and instructions on how to install them.
Good news:
1. I see the device listed as plugged in through the "USB Device Info" app, it recognizes it as Logitech Rumblepad 2 and recognizes another generic gamepad as well.
2. Gamepad is not broken - my old Android Box with Android v.4.4.4 detects it just fine, I can play games and navigate through Android UI on it using the gamepad.
Bad news:
1. Neither the Logitech Rumblepad nor the generic gamepad work in games or in Android UI on the MXQ Pro+
2. Tried a bunch of gamepad testing apps from Play Store but no values come up, it is not detected at all.
What I need help with:
Drivers, modules... anything that will allow gamepad support on Android 7.1.2 and instructions how to install them. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
It is really weird that an older Android comes with support out of the box yet the latest one doesn't.
I know this is old, but after doing searching, it seems like no one replies to these threads with gamepad issues. Is this just something that's troublesome for devs to implement? Are the driver modules just not available? I am in the exact same boat as you, I'm hoping in the future I can turn my little android boxes into steam link + htpc devices.
Hi,
I've recently flashed Aidan's rom ATV9 on the subject box. Everything works perfect except that Audio passthrough is not supported through Kodi. So my receiver does not play Dolby digital/plus, DTS etc...
I understand it's not the ROM's problem. I read extensively on this topic, and found from Kodi's forum that this is a problem specific to Android 9. If the OS does not support audio passthrough, then Kodi won't be able to pass through the raw audio. I had android 7 installed on the box which supported audio passthrough, but this version is so old other functionalities are not available. I'm wondering if Android 8 would solve this problem. If yes, does anyone know if any past versions of Aidan's rom are available (possibly have an android 8) for testing. I can only find version 9 on the internet now.
thanks!
J
