Hi.

I have ordered a Visson ATV-102 ICS 1gb memory Google TV model from a supplier in China.

On the website where I ordered it there are dozens of suppliers advertising ATV-102, the model I ordered.
I can find virtually nothing for ATV-102 on this forum but plenty for ATV-108.

Can someone advise me please if ATV-102 does exist, whether I can update it using ATV-108 firmware.

If anyone knows the difference between the 102 and 108, any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

ATV-102 is ATV-108 rev 2 (as you may read on the forum about rev 1 and rev 2 devices). Visson first introduced M3 platform as ATV-108, then renamed it to ATV-102. There are 2 versions of ATV-102, one with 512 MB of RAM and one with 1gb of RAM. I did not release any firmware available for download for device with 1gb of RAM. If you have that device, do not try to install firmware for ATV-108 rev 2 (f16ref). Both devices are M3, f16ref platform, but different kernel and bootloader configuration so it's quiet possible that you will brick your device if you do that.

Hi Stane.

Many thanks.
I bought a 1gb memory ATV-102 model for resale.

Is it OK to resell this without updating the firmware please.
How can I check if Chinese seller actually supplied me a 1gb version.
There is nothing on the box or on the cardboard box to say what it is.
Very grateful for your help. I was contemplating self harm due to the frustration at figuring out what I had !
I'll drink an extra beer on your behalf tonight.

Thanks Geoff, Halifax, UK

Hi,

It's up to you if you want to upgrade fw or not before reselling :)

About memory check, ES Task Manager crossed my mind. In ES Task Manager, go to More and select About Phone, then on top of screen you have 2 or 3 tabs (can't remember). In one of them you will have memory specification.
