  1. Hola Eric, any word if Finless Bob or any other developers are working on custom roms for the MK808B Plus?

    Hola,
    I have the stick with 107K4 firmware, and i can’t upgrade to 109K4 using the 1st option.

    I will try the 2nd option.

  3. When I upgrade the firmware via SD card, will I lose all my apps like Showbox, Kodi, etc.?

  4. I am holding in my hands a device with a different build dated m201-user 4.4.2 KOT49H 20141231 test-keys (dmesg shows Linux version 3.10.33-ge5d66e9 (Oman@ubuntu) (gcc version 4.7.3 20130205 (prerelease) (crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-4.7-2013.02-01-20130221Linaro GCC 2013.02) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 31 15:29:42 CST 2014)

    Anyone knows what is this build? It seems to be assembled by the same person (Oman@ubuntu) as the one who did 20141222 construir, just a week later, yet it behaves a little differently. In particular I am having problems with CSS animations in webview on that build. Gracias

  5. Hello everybody.
    I downloaded the latest firmware version: 111k4 to my PC ( win8.1)
    After decompressing of downloaded file ( I used WinRur software ) I see one file only:
    MK808B Plus_111k4_6212_20150513.img
    Due to sd card flash method – paso 2: there should be 3 decompressed files:10*k4.zip, recovery.img and factory_update_param. aml
    Desafortunadamente, all of them aren’t there
    I checked setup of my PC. Option of hidden files is dis-activated, so I should see all hidden files.
    Here supposed to be something else.
