As I am in China I rang the company on the new dual core they are advertising.. But at the moment it is not in production. Also as a oem supplier they won't sell to individuals.

I also sent them a email asking for kernel source release so that we can use droidmote.. But as yet no reply..
If you guys could also send them emails to add the 'uinput' module into the kernel they might get the hint that it is a desired add on.

good news boys and girls..
I got a reply back from them..
just heading out for a cocktail party tonight.
so will post more details tomorrow..
looks like droidmote might be coming our way soon..

@Dual_HD:
Do you have an Android media player? If so, which one?

ATV510B 8726-m3

Punkored · Nov 9, 2012

Forgive my question, I have been without my ATV1000 and turn me away from the subject.

As if I have the model or the model M1 M3?.

The one I have has 512 MB of RAM, but I do not know if I have the M1 or M3 and an update for each model.

Thank you.

jschall · Nov 10, 2012

@Punkored:
The ATV1000 is an M1.

Here is a link to the update:

Thanks, but your answer doesn't help.
I have ipad, and I want to airplay my video on my TV, but I don't want to have an Apple TV for 99$ only for this utility, what can I do?

@DualHD:

As far as I know, you only have two options.

1) Get an Apple TV for $100, and Airplay video to it from your iPad.

2) Get an Android smartphone or tablet for $200-$300, and play video from it to your ATV510 using iMediaShare or Skifta.

dgcruzing · Nov 10, 2012

ok, Here's an update on that email.

Questions
1-a: How to boot in to recovery?
What is the combination needed to do this from power on?

press and hild the upgrade/reset button on the box, then plug in power adapter, hold that button for about 5 seconds, normally you will enter into recovery mode(upgrading screen)

b: Is there a superwipe you use for wiping all partitions before install a new Rom?
c: Can a extracted recoveryblob - CWM recovery be loaded to this box via ADB?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672082
Something similar to this?
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14174333/Barsik CWMRecovery.zip

I am sorry we don't have that.

2: USB debugging mode - which USBport to use and what is the combination needed to do this from power on? refer to this thread on how we used to do it for the flytouch..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074251

our box has no usb port for usb debugging, you can use ADB via ethernet or wifi, just need to enable the usb debugging option in setting->developer option.

MOST VERY IMPORTANT !!!!!!!

3: Kernal Sources - I see on this box it it limited to 800mhz with only one scaling governor allowed to be used..
I use Antutu CPU master to set this normally on my other tablets and phones.
Also CPUspy does not work..
Can you release the kernel sources so we can work on this ourselves to improve performance of these box's?
the other reason we want to get this is so that we can run
DroidMote Server & Client

we have source code, but I am sorry it is not opened.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsIm9yZy52aWRlb21hcC5kcm9pZG1vdGVzZXJ2ZXIiXQ..
as we need the UINPUT MODULE IN THE KERNEL LIKE MOST ANDROID DEVICES

if it is needed for you, we can add it into the kernel and send to you, please let me know the current firmware version of your ATV3000, go to setting->about device, you will find uboot and build number.

So now its a wait to see what I get sent back to me and see if I can get Droidmote going.. Will post back as soon as I know something..

alpuy · Nov 10, 2012

To which email did you write? I have the ATV310 and i need that mod too.. Thanks

once we get it confirmed working on one..and if they don't do an update across the platforms..
we can pull the module out and then it should be a simple matter of a script that can be loaded on boot..

so first off we need to see if they can get it working first..
let you know more after I get something back from them..

szunti · Nov 10, 2012

Today I updated my ATV300 player to M1 Android 2.3 20120606, and it was sucessfully, after reboot i stuck on the EnjoyTV logo, and nothing happened.
When i try to go to the android recovery with th reset button, the led turn to blue, after red, and nothing happened, only the black screen.
On the box it was android 2.3 but from 2011. Boot version was okay, when i checked it.

What can i do? Thank you!

dgcruzing · Nov 11, 2012

Zulu,
is da man..
Got it going finally with this uinput.ko on the Geniatech M1 ATV3000 Android 4.0 20120529 so this means you guys should be able to do it..

These instructions should be up over on Droidmotes forum soon.. and I will link once it approved..

Szunti,
I am no expert with this rom, but here's a few options..
1: Follow these instructions..

dgcruzing · Nov 11, 2012

Once again thanks to Zulu, we know have a auto load script for the Uniput.ko..

unrar the attachment,

Use a script manager program to call the script on boot.

in script manger flag this as root,
flag as executable
and say to script manager to start it on boot.

So now you don't have to worry about loading the insmod commands at boot.

start-uinput.rar - 132 bytes

confirmed working

2: Or you could try to pull out the update.apk from the ICS and see if it will install on your Rom..Then you can try to load the update.zip with a fresh install of the Rom you want to use..

3: Or you could try to do it manually this way.. But note that these instructions are for the TF101 but you could adapt them to suit this box, you just need to work out which partition to push it too..I have done this before on the TF101 and works fine..

Thank you for your answer.
Unfortunatelly method #1 not working without the recovery menu.

Tommorrow i will try the method #2.
But i think the #3 will be good only.

But it seems hard for me.

But i will try it. CWM will be good for this device?
Thank you!

Honestly, i dont know if you can push a CWM recovery to it.. It might be better to see if you can extract the recovery from the blob and push the one they use..

There is a post a but further back about a link to xda on some guy working on a tab version but as yet i have not found suitable instructions..

Maybe someone else could chime in with some help..

I cannot load the module, dmesg throws me the following:
[ 3035.196000] uinput: version magic '2.6.34 preempt mod_unload modversions ARMv7 ' should be '2.6.34V2.0.0-67-g215089c-dirty mod_unload modversions ARMv7 '

So it seems that i need a kernel with the same version magic as that...
Any idea of how i can make it work?

Thanks

Alpuy,
You might have to keep playing with different uinputs to see if you can find one to work with what you are running..
Just make sure you are doing the permissions right on the folder you make and the file you put in and hopefully you will find one that will work..
I have 3 Android devices that this works on..
Transformer TF101, HTC EVO and now got it working on this ATV3000

My Kernel just says.. 2.6.34 Fri May 25 16:01:52 HKT 2012
I am running the ICS-Stock M1 20120529 - Android 4.0.3

Thanks but I don't agree with you, did you try AirplayDMR apk? which turns your ATVbox to A**le TV! you can stream your movies on your ipad/iphone to your ATV1000/ATV510!

Hi, I am new to this forum and to Android TV boxes in general. I have been looking for some android based box that will allow me to easily play movies from lan, external usb hdd and if possible process TV signal (DVB-T). I stumbled across Geniatech Enjoy TV boxes, but I am kinda lost in their specification - I am not sure what exactly I need and what not. this is what I want:
- smooth FullHD (1080p) playback; if it plays "Samsung Demo Oceanic Life" without stuttering then it's ok
- ability to play videos from local NAS (access to LAN) and from external usb HDD
- receive DVB-T signal (even if it doesn't I guess Geniatech PT115e would do the trick)
- would be great to have some sort of YouTube player in there as well
- HDMI output
- it has to be silent
- would be awesome if it came in black

Originally I was looking into ATV330B, mainly because it has built-in DVB-T receiver but I am a bit sceptical how it handles high profile-high bitrate h264 1080p videos (seeing it has only 800MHz CPU).
Maybe ATV520 Enjoy TV Dual Core Nano 4 would be better (with DualCore 1.5GHz A9 CPU), but I would need to get Geniatech PT115e for receiving DVB-T signal. Plus I am not really into white box and I am not sure how much would it cost comparing to ATV330B. Smoothness of 1080p playback is highest priority but I don't want to go over 150$ for TV box. Ideally I would like to keep it in <100e (~128$) price range.
That being said, I am having difficulties finding out pricing on Geniatech TV boxes, amazon and ebay have rather small and a bit outdated sales. Is there any official Geniatech internet store (for EU region)?

Thanks for any help
