The touchscreen controls in MC3 are terrible! <I'm blaming the fact that I get my butt handed to me in multiplayer on the crappy controls >
I've seen the ability to play MC3 with the PS3 controller via the sixaxis app. This works because the controller can be mapped to areas of the screen. I don't have a PS3 and hate the idea of buying a $50 controller to play a $7 game.
Is there any way to accomplish what the sixaxis app does for the wii classic controller? I've not found a way to do screen mapping, only emulator key mapping with the wiimote apps.
How about some sort of xperia play emulation with wii classic controller? Don't know if that would work for touchpad. Anyone know a way to use dual analogs from the wii classic?
Ive been wondering the exact same thing. MW3 isnt too bad on my galaxy s2, but on a tablet the controls are near impossible. It would be awesome to use either a wii controller or some other type of gampad...
I am sorry this isn't too helpful, but it is awesome with the sixaxis remote. I found a ps3 controller and got pretty lucky, but I definitely know they show up cheaper than the 50 bucks you speak of. I highly recommend it. I have a ps3 remote dedicated to the Touchpad.
That being said, I had been using the wiimote classic and regular wiimote for a while on emulators, but never saw anything like what sixaxis does, and that's pretty surprising to me. The sixaxis app just got amazing updates this week that fixes some of the issues it had on the Touchpad - save yourself the hassle and spend a few bucks on a second hand ps3 controller
What you need is an app that supports keymapping. I did a quick Google and it looks like this app here might support it. Use at your own risk, I have no idea as to if this will work, especially since I don't have a WiiRemote.
Now, not to hijack your post or anything, but just don't feel as if it's worth making a new thread over it. Anyone with Shadowgun able to make it past the "Simon-Says" keypad puzzles? I just get a blank keyboard with no numbers oran anything to track, looks to me like the display drivers going crazy. I am using ChainFire 3D. Awesome game, just wish I could play it past the first two minutes...
could some one help

Here's what I did, because I had the exact same problem. Using Absolute System Tools go to the build.props editor and change the ro.product.model of your device to GT-I9100 and ro.product.brand to samsung, then restart your TouchPad. You can make a backup before editing these values, but my backups didn't reapply properly, just remember what you edited or come back here for reference as to what you modified.
After restarting, I had the same corrupt data error when starting MC3, I redownloaded the data over WiFi, it then had to scan the data twice and redownload some bits and pieces before it worked properly. Give it a few tries. Just a heads up, my TouchPad would sleep of death every time the screen turned off while downloading/scanning the MC3 data. If this happens, hold down the menu and power button for 5-10 seconds and restart the device. I just made sure to keep my screen active while it downloaded/scanned.
Here's a thread to use for reference concerning using Six Axis Profiles for MC3. This guy had the right idea for button placement. But I found this persons advice most helpful.

Anyone having problem using Gamecih on Zenonia 3??
I've been using it for Zenonia 2 and Illusia and it worked just fine.
But I've started playing Zenonia 3 a month ago, I was never able to use it..
I got on hidden mode, typed in some value (i.e. money, stat points, etc),
searched it, got numerous results, made some change to the value in the game,
re-search, mostly got "0 found" or sometimes actually get the right associated value I was looking for, but that's it!
Even though I find the right one, I cannot change it..
I could change the value on Gamecih, but that won't do on the actual game.....
I've tried it on the other games(Zenonia2 and Illusia) that I used to play with Gamecih,
and they worked just fine..
Why is Zenonia 3 the only one that Gamecih won't work on me??
I know many ppl out there have no problem using Gamecih on Zenonia3,
so I know the game itself is not something like "gamecih blocked"
I've been using Gamecih app for my games almost a year now..
So I know everything including going onto hidden mode and whatnot,
so this is nothing about that I'm using it wrong!
Please... I need help!!!!
i have the same problem as you :O i use gamecih with zenonia 1 and 2, but when i started zenonia 3 even with the hidden mode on gamecih, i can't change any value :S..i think we need to wait till gamecih makes it's update in august, because zenonia is the most new of the three zenonia, and even with hidden mode doesn't work :O so let's wait a bit xD
I made a forum dedicated to cheating android apps/games.
I would like anyone who uses GameCIH, Hex-edit, GameCheat Engine, or want cheats to sign up!
Tell me what cheats you want for what app/game and ill try to find them. And hopefully you guys can post some good stuff too.
see ya'll there, and hope this isnt against xda.

I am facing some differnt kind of Issue.
I am using Feravold V20 rom. Iv installed Game CIH 3 also tried lower versions but the problem is the same. Whenever I pull out CIH to find any value it finds it but then if I want it to hide it or minimize to carry on playing the game it just dont minimize. It just stays on the front screen and I cant get rid of it unless I stop Game CIH. Any idea whats wrong or if its me?

Who has all tried the new SixAxis app out for the Droidx2 and what are your experiences?
I can connect just fine, I've noticed the dpad works for scrolling through suggestions in the market, but i haven't found any emulators that will work.
I couldn't get it working either and haven't been able to download the compatibility checker. Its not in our market as our device seems to be listed as incompatible so I emailed the Dev last night and asked if he knew anything about it.
Ill post when I hear back from him.

Anyone know what the **** is going on? Not only can I not get this app, but it also says I am incompatible with Quick Pic, and Wifi Analyzer. I had Wifi Analyzer working fine on 2.2.2... I don't understand why I can't get these apps, is there something screwed up on my 2.3.3 install? I completely wiped the phone and SBF'ed and erased everything before upgrading. I've spent the past 3 days getting my phone looking how I want so at this point I REALLY don't wanna reSBF/install. Is there anything I can try? I have a feeling more important apps are gonna pop up as being incompatible the more I look for stuff I need.
Not to sidetrack this thread too much, I still haven't gotten an e-mail back from the sixaxis devs. I absolutely must have this.

changing my lcd density back to 240 fixed it!
That said sixaxis still doesn't work on my phone. Prerooted GB, it gets to where I can have the app connect to my PS3 controller, and it says controller 1 connected, but it will not respond to anything. Sixaxis is enabled as my input device as well. Went in to FPse and check to see if it would map my buttons to the hardware buttons and it wouldn't respond. I believe GB also will no longer work with the wii remote like it did in froyo, so maybe it is a similar problem.
Really hoping the dev gets this working for us. If anyone gets an email back from them pls let us know.
Has anyone tried this on a rom other than stock pre rooted gb?
i haven't heard back yet but I will send them the link to this thread so they can see other X2 users are having problems.
I'm having the same problem. I've established the blue tooth connection. I've successfully seen response within text message fields, but none of the emulators recognize the input.
I also sent an e-mail to tech support - I haven't heard from them in days. I'm running Nitro's Eclipse 0.2.1
Hi all,
I'm the dev of the Sixaxis Controller app. As was suggested earlier, I've been pretty swamped with emails up until now. I just wanted to let you know that I am looking into this issue, and would appreciate some testers to help determine what's going wrong here.
First of all, if anyone is able to get hold of a Wii Remote, I'd really appreciate you trying that out in emulators using the Wiimote Controller app. If the Wiimote Controller app is fine, it's probably something silly I'm doing, otherwise I suspect it is something in the stock roms for the X2.
Which brings me to the second question; can everyone let me know which rom you are running.
Thanks heaps, and I'm sorry this issue has taken me so long to get to!
I updated my review for your app to 4 stars simply because of this post. Thank you!
I CANNOT get ahold of a wii mote to try out
I am running Pre-Rooted Gingerbread (no other changes besides having root apps)
PM me if you need a tester or have any questions. Id like to help anyway i can
I have a Wii-mote, so I did a bit of testing..
The Emulators I tried are Fpse, N64oid, and Snes9x EX. The Wii controller software I used was "Wiimote Controller" by CCP [email protected]
So firstly I connected my Wii controller to my X2 using the wiimote software, it discovers my Wii controller without problem, and proceeds to report every button press in its list, showing it is functioning. Wiimote is enabled as input device. I tried Fpse, N64oid, and Snes9x EX, by going in to their input options and trying to bind my wii controller inputs with their hardware mapping options. All emulators were non-responsive in detecting my wiimote buttons as hardware inputs.
Interestingly enough, the built in Wiimote software provided in Snes9x EX would connect to my controller AND receive all of its inputs correctly, allowing me to play any of it's games with the Wii controller.
Now, before I switched to my current (I believe P3, the most popular ROM on this subforum) Pre-rooted GB 2.3.3, my wii controller was able to be read as hardware inputs on all emulators I tried. I was using Froyo 2.2.2 and had no problems using the Wii controller. I would be interested to see if anyone still running 2.2.2 can use this sixaxis software without any problems.
So it seems that the problem lies in our 2.3.3 not being able to read our bluetooth connections as hardware input devices, probably due to its updated bluetooth system files. This makes me wonder how Snes9x's built in Wii software gets it to work, regardless. I wonder if ALL 2.3.3 phones have this same problem? I know 2.3.4 has an even newer version of the bluetooth software and wonder if this fixes our problem?
If you (Sir Earl) have any additional things for me to try, let me know.
That confirms my suspicion that Motorola botched something in the 2.3.3 version. I don't believe it has anything to do with bluetooth, but rather they have somehow stopped IME's from working outside of the normal OS menus. The reason Snes9x EX is able to work is because it isn't using an IME.
On a hunch, can I get someone to try installing a different home screen app, such as ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro, then trying the Sixaxis app again. I suspect something in MotoBlur is trapping the input.

I was using LauncherPro Plus during my testing.
Hmmm... It must go deeper into the kernel then. I'll see if I can find the source code and try to find some answers or a workaround.
In the meantime, it would be good to get some confirmation from others that it works with 2.2.2, but not the 2.3.3 update.
Can someone try going to Sixaxis Controllers Preferences->Input Mappings->1st Controller mappings and setting the Up button to the 'SEARCH' key (be sure to disconnect and reconnect the controller for the changes to take effect). Next, make sure your Sixaxis is connected and set as the current input method. Run FPse and go to Settings->Input->Hardware keys, then tap UP, followed by pressing the search button on your phone. If it accepts the button and says something like 'Value: 84', then try running a game, and testing whether the up button on the controller is responsive in game. Also try pressing the search button on your phone to see if that is responsive. Make sure you try this with a game where the up button would produce a noticeable result!
Report back your results!
Thanks!
Earl
Has anyone tried installing the PS Store app on the Touchpad, chagning the build prop etc to make this work? Does this work! I think i might have a go at doing it when I get home. I'm guessing its gonna be a long complicaed process but if it works it will be pretty cool...
I've got it to install and run, however I get a Sony server error. I think it has to do with me not changing my system Is to the Xperia Play's. I've already modded my Touchpad to where its a PlayStation Certified device.
I've been to busy with work to try this yet... please explain what you have done....

I JUST went ahead and used the downloadable file instead of modifying the apk
Ive got it to install by changing build props etc but get an error 8008103e. PSPocket works and lists the game. Crash bandicoot didnt work and complained about license error.
Not yet tried the method above
The new release of Playstation Mobile is running on the Touchpad thanks to a flashable zip that should work on any device. Download from:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...tion-mobile-for-android-on-any-rooted-device/
There isn't much to choose from for content yet, but the one free game did work fine for me. Hopefully they port some good PS or PS2 games to this, then I'd buy something. Since there are a few certified Sony Xperia devices using Snapdragon/Adreno hardware other games should run fine. The only issue I see is the 4:3 screen ratio but everything scaled well. The left and right on screen controls were perfectly placed by default so that I could use my left and right thumbs on them.
Here's where we shall list the games that just don't work on the latest build of this rom.
If you don't mind, the smart people figuring things out with the rom would like you to test and report back, and report any other games that just don't want to work.
Just reguesting that people get a logcat/dmesg and if your device crashes, a last_kmsg.

Temple Run
Shadowgun
Dead Trigger
Sprinkle
Mayhem
Pinball Pro
Glow hockey 2
Spirits
Here is a Last Kernel Message after testing some games and browsing the GUI.
Here are more Interesting reports.
I was able to catch a glitch from what it seems LCD or Refresh distortion and also some more Logcat Crashes
New misbehaved games:
Free from market:
Mayhem : Touch screen freezes game. Most problematic games do that.
Pinball Pro : 3 dots mute and unmute sound Pressing 3 dots i manage to crash Nook Tablet SOD then reboot/shutdown.
Attached here is a Logcat with Game Glow Hockey 2 that screen goes black when you start main game, and also i included Pinball Pro strange behaviour when pressing 3 dots mute/unmute audio.
Also Last kernel message after i leave Glow Hockey 2 displaying black screen for 1-2 min wich caused a reboot issue.
Spirits doesn't work.The game loads, but hangs after attempting to start a new game.

while many would love to help you fix your wifi issue, you need to provide more details than "wifi won't stay on"
assuming that you are on the latest version of chrmhoffmann's CM10 (per the thread title)
what is the environment and what are the symptoms?
is this your home wifi router?
how far away is the router?
is it secure?
are you getting interference from another router or transmitter, clutter on the channel?
what have you tried so far, have you re-flashed the ROM?
give us a little to go on and maybe we can help

So sorry. After I left the post I was thinking maybe it wasn't the right place.
To answer your questions...
I could be anywhere in my house. Signal could be very strong of very weak. The router is about 3-4 rooms away in a basement. I never had these issues with CM7. My router is secure WPA I believe. I'd have to double check. I'm not sure about any interference... But I can try to figure that out. (But never had issues with CM7)
Most of the game titles I have tried so far come from gameloft. Order and Chaos, Nova 2, Nova 3. I watch the numbers count up and they go very quickly say 30-40 mb in a few seconds then very very long pauses.Then another 30-40 mb in few seconds and then another very long pause and then after a while longer the wifi connection is lost. I go back to the main screen to find my wifi has actually turned itself off. Short downloads seem to be ok. Larger downloads are not. This has also happened to me if I surf on the unit for a very long time.
If this isnt the right place I apologize. I can't seem to to find a place where I'm allowed to post yet..
Thanks,
JT
Problematic games are a little less problematic
Greetings. Since the introduction of CM9, I've found that many games and applications weren't handling touch events correctly and consequently, caused games - like gta3, shadowgun, and battleheart - to crash, hang, or not display ui elements correctly. This was very depressing indeed and I'd often stare down at my nook tablet regretting my purchase. I honestly felt Gingerbread simply didn't belong on a tablet and the stock BN Rom felt very antiquated for my tastes. I was stuck, or at least I felt that way. CM9 - now I'm using CM10 - was nice, but none of my favorite applications would operate the way you'd expect.
However, thanks to some very diligent gentlemen over in this thread , games and apps that once behaved awkwardly with regards to touch events are now working fine! I somewhat feel inclined to include a "games that are now working" list, but honestly, everything I've thrown at the nook tablet since updating its firmware and patching the fixed kernel driver, has worked wonderfully well. GTA 3, Raymans jungle run, GLWG, Battleheart, deadspace; old or new, many problematic apps are responding to touch events now, and nook tablet owners should really give CM10 a go. I even tried a few lesser known games that would hang due to mishandled touch events and they now work, too. The nook tablet is looking really sexy now, folks :laugh:
tl;dr
mik_os updated our touch panels kernel driver to support a firmware that enables concurrent 5-finger touch. I think he also "sexied" up the touch handling, which resulted in some applications working better - with regards to touch events - than they did before.
Also, once you upgrade your touch panel to this new firmware, there's no going back! You're stuck with CM9/CM10, but I honestly don't think that's a problem

Not correct. You can flash stock firmware for touchscreen, thus revert is possible
Just got one to play with. and so far feeling ok with it..
But..
Why would you go and make the "Back, Home, Resent apps" buttons that are core to Android not be there?
Anyway, I got a feeling its only going to be an edit of a system file and we should be able to get them back working..
Its running JB 4.1.2
Anyone got any idea's how I can go about doing this?
As I am using team EOS 4 on the TF101, with thier nice way of having seperate EOS ability to edit the size, postion of these buttons in question..
Is is fesiable for me to grab the EOS apk and move it into this Rom an see if it works?
I am also thinking that something like LMK might be able to work too, but would have to be worked via mouse inputs not touch..
Any pointers in the right direction would be great thanks..
Also, I will use this thread ed as a bit of a collection of handy hints for these box's as I am sure they are going to up there in the development circle once they become a bit more available to the masses..

Anyone who want's to use on screen NavBar buttons, he's lucky! (at least compared to ICS).
Now, by adding in
the line
you get the navigation bar (after reboot) and at the same time Android system recognizes this and adds the three dot menu icon whenever needed*!
If you want to disable the hardware keys, edit the file
These are the three hardware buttons
Add a # before any you don't wan't to use any more. I did for 158 and 139 and left my Home button working.
There is a mod** (flash it in recovery) which makes the bar almost half the size. It's better looking and less space is wasted but it does get some time to get used to it and you might need a couple of tries sometimes when trying to hit those buttons.
*This wasn't the case for ICS.

Also by using DroidVpn or OpenVpn for Android, or Via a VPN'ed connection on a laptop/USB-doggle from a desktop via "Connectfiy" your users can be using the Xios ICS with VPN's as is..

System enharncements:
I am using a few programs to make this build run sweet.. the following are the programs I using and its up to yourself to do some reading and work out which things to tweak.. but mines running as sweat as it ever has.. NO LAG or RE-DRAWS.... and Google Play store is not sticky anymore.. Mind you it shouldn't be on a dual core device.
Also as a note I am running Livewall papers in the background "Ocean HD" so this is taking up 15mb of Ram..
Rescan Media ROOT
Disable and Kill the media scanner at boot.

Pimp My Rom -
Take your time with this one and work out what settings work for you..
I suggest you go in and use the Tools>Universal Init.d Support -- to Check that it is setup for you..
if it say negitive just hit the Activate button then test.. works for me..

Also, there is a Entropy Generator no 5.. you want to have this set so it is showing "4096 bits"
you can also use this program to check it it working..

If you want to know more head to this post on XDA:

Also on this, at the moment I am using the seeder.apk as not had time to set CrossBreeder up.. But Do notice an improvement by having Entropy @ 4096.
So really now with the XAF Custom build of XBMC and this setup I am good to go..

Nice to have upgraded to Dual-core..

Looks like another update out..
Dated 14.3
http://up.stdvr.com/mygica/android/A6/firmware/
Will see if the box wants to auto update once I am home as out on the road..
But should be able to report back tomorrow
Also I have some details on mkv play back from industry.. Will post when I can get all the data together..

Haven't had much time to put it through its paces as been travelling for work.
But here are some thoughts on it so far..
I have just upgraded to "update_Mygica_20130314.img"
http://up.stdvr.com/mygica/android/A...a_20130314.img
Like the new bigger pointer for the mouse, also it seems to have brought back the remote controls as I had lost those but I still have to manually turn it off.
I swap out the Chinese launcher with Apex launcher - Apex runs nicely and can back up all the settings and screens so are happy with this.
Speeds and Kernel controls :
As pretty much the same as the M1-M3 box's - until we have developers that are hacking these to suit our needs we are locked in the the Geniatech/MyGicia/Privos setting's - Which I hope in the not to distant future we get some of the phone/Tablet kernel guru's turning up and opening these kernels up for us to adjust the speeds in which these can run.
Using CPU Master I am able to get it to run @ 1540 after boot but the settings don't stick and from the readings I have done this is in the way they have setup the Init.d..
What is Init.d?

CMW type recovery:
Been said before-hoping in the not too distant future we get a CMW or TWRP going as this will give us more options to keep the box clean and load in customs roms.
How I do it -XBMC-addons
As I seem to be installing multi-able versions of XMBC and or firmware upgrades, I have now got a set pattern in which I can reset most of my fav addons back up.. it maybe a little long winded for some but works for me as I find that I lose addons if I don't keep track of them thus I have them saved to a NAS drive. I access them via this method to re-setup.
1: Load the NAS directory up using CIF manager.
2: In XBMC -Go in to "System-Addons-install from zip
3: Go in to "Root file system" then "mnt" then 'cifs' then a 'XBMC' directory where I keep a backup of all my depositories that I use. ( over the last 12 months I have collected a nice bunch of them from around the traps)
Remotes:
Droidmote : I had it going the first time I set the box up in a hotel room using my Asus portable wifi router and had the accelerometer working nicely on a few games. but since I have been back to my home network I have not been able to get it to work - just tested it with that modem again and its not working, so i would say the uniput needs to be loaded up via a script again. Will play with it when get time.
RemoteIME / Android Smart TV remote app
RemoteIME - §Q¥ÎAndroid¤â¾÷©Î¥*ªO¹q¸£³£¥i¥H¾Þ±±MyGica Enjoy TV Box
Not a lot of info on this one but it works nicely with my tf101 and this box.. what I like about it.. just works..
Finds the box and away we go.. wish Droidmote was that easy.
Got a thread on XDA on it.. so hopefully it gets picked up a bit more and some more work done it on..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2045734
Also been playing with this one.. but cant seem to get it to work.. got the server side apk but as yet, I am not sure if it will only go with the A8 but I have read somewhere that others have had it going but not sure on what hardware.
I got a feeling that you have to have the bubblepnp going then this may work in with this server and remote.
just haven't had enough time to play.

Here is the rockchip.mediacenter app which goes on to the box. Plus in this zip is the other apk's you need.
If someone gets it going post back and let us how..
Import the TB backup file via TB backup.. either via the TB program or "open as" if you are running TB it should give you this option.. as thats how I got it to import in to mine..

Chinese TV apks
As I am here in the middle kingdom- I have to have things to entertain the guests so found this bundle - I am not sure how many will work outside of China but some are actually pretty good once you get the hang of how to use them. (no my Chinese is not that great).. a lot will update so this is normal.. just work out which is "yes" and which is "no"
(Will post the link once its loaded to Dropbox)
here's a link to addons for chinese tv within XBMC
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=64250&page=37
ok.. a few problems of it locking up.
Cant pin it down to anyone one thing as yet..
Doesn't seem to get hot so thats not it as I have a USB laptop fan under it, seems to be when I change out to another input on the TV and or I leave it idle for some time, kinda goes in to sleep and not come out it.. got to reboot.
Another thing on the lastest MyGica roms is the lack of Home' 'Back' 'Search' 'Back' 'Recent Task' 'Menu' buttons.
so at the moment I am using this and it does the trick.

New firmware..
http://www.geniatech.com/down-eng/androidtvbox/update_spi_mx_20130326.zip
http://www.geniatech.com/down-eng/androi...130326.zip
Downlload and don't unzip, copy to SD card or USB disk, connect to the box and run upgrade->local update, select the SPI file to update first, after finished, it will restart the box, then, do the same steps to update the firmware, and XBMC is still xbmcapp-armeabi-v7a-debug-20130223.apk.
Above is a new firmware for Geniatech's dual core box, it fixed 4:3/16:9 aspect ratio and android bar problems of XBMC.

Upgraded to this one today.. Working smoothly.
Haven't had time to play with XBMC builds on it but was streaming off PPTV most of the day..
Not sure if it was the box or the network.. Seemed to encounter the ethernet problem after about 2 hours where the stream was caught up.
Switched out to wifi and ran the same stream for a while.. Then switched back to ethernet and no problems.. Maybe a net problem and or that old bug is still hanging round..
Overall zippy as hell but I am also running the Seeder app to keep the Random Entropy up to 4096.
We can clock up to 1512mhz and change out to performance governor but min seems to be locked in at 48mhz which seems a bit low.
But with that being said.. It shows that it actually sits down between 72mhz & 336mhz on low loads.
Navigation buttons are back plus a new screen shot one..
I also noticed in settings there is a new EASYLINK option.. Maybe some like a new remote control app or airplay?
Anyone got info on it?

has anybody used the component out on a mygica atv1200? i swear the blue and green are reversed. i've tried 2 sets of cables. i hooked from mygica to computer and tv. both will not display until i put blue cable in green and green in blue on the mygica box.. and obviously when i do this it messes up the colors. has anyone else noticed this? i tried taking out the hdmi as well and got the same results. i'd love it if someone could confirm i'm either right, or i simply have a bad box. thanks. i've also tried with different firmwares. including the 3/26. i'm now on 1/15.
Did anybody try that DroidMote server. I think I have problem with that uinput. I've downloaded it and made som changes with terminal emulator following instructions, still no moves... Please advice...
make sure it is rooted and goto the system folder and edit build.prop and add a line of code on a new line at the bottom:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
and reboot the device to get those buttons.

Works out of the box for me..
One thing I do is test the network I am on..
i.e test it with my TF-001 to make sure its working, then test it on the ATV1200.
As my other box I had to do some mods on it to get it to work..
but overall works great.. play a few games with it..

Thanks for answer. It works nice on the new firmware!
Another question. I faced to weird shutdowns during normal operation (browsing, video playing). It happens very frequently and I did everything, updated firmware, did several resets - no success. Any suggestions what it might be?
ADD
I found that it was not device issue but my TV set... It works smoothly on my neighbour's TV. If I could only know that they'll be incompatible... TV Firmware update - no success. Buying new TV for my box is ridiculous

dgcruzing/anyone,
i am trying to use the cifs manager app on my atv1200 but it seems i need a "cifs.ko" file or the app won't work.
Where did you get the cifs.ko file?
any help gratefully received, thanks.

Bear' before I reply I need to check my setup again to see what is what..
Just shifted cities here in China so its been a big few weeks..
I have got the box working into the Synology NAS and it is working without me playing with the CIFs setup.
But I have used the Networking program that came with the firmware and set it to auto mount the video and TV folders on the NAS.
I also need to find some time to setup XBMC again due to this new update.
And also test the new internet connection I have got..

well thanks for this initial reply.
i have not been able to get cifs manager to work at all without a cifs.ko module. i have got an smb share connected in xbmc, but it seems unreliable.
anyone know how to get cifs manager working on this type of box (geniatech/mygica), i think i need to download the cifs.ko mdule but i don't know where to get it.
any new dgcruzing?
how did you get cifs manager working?

i used Mount Manager from the PlayStore and it worked flawlessly
I am getting a Green light on the box and it won't respond anymore. This happens when I leave it sit for a while. Any help? Seems to be some kind of sleep or standby, but it won't wake from it unless I unplug it and then plug it back in.
Try a firmware upgrade..dont know what you are on..but only go to 05 - 4.1.2 dont go to 4.2.2 unless you are prepared for troubles..
We have plenty on it over @ xbmc.org threads

I have bought this box 3 days ago. Now i habe a Problem. When i use the droitmode app and use the multitouch swipe , the indicator stays in the screen. It does not disappear. I am in the latest Firmware. Plus i cant update the busybox. After updating my Firmware is totally screwed.
Are there any custom roms for this box?
Thanks for your help
