After Launching Andromax U versus Andromax i

akhirnya rilis resmi dari smartfren andromaxu sudah keluar , sedikit mengecewakan memang akan tetapi diberikan sedikit kejutan oleh pihak smartfren , yang semula rilis harga di 1,7 juta kemudian di revisi menjadi 1,599 juta , berkurang 100 rb , bagi yang sudah preorder sisa 100 ribu di kembalikan ke user dalam bentuk pulsa , pengguna smartren andromax i cukup lega dan beberapa user yang kemarin sempat menunggu akhirnya dengan mantap dan pasti kembali lagi memilih dan memberi prever ke smartfren andromaxi ,
ya dengan alasan spek yang tidak terlalu jauh dan segi perubahan tidak terlalu signifikan terhadap andromaxi , user dengan pasti lebih condong ke smartfren andromaxi ketimbang smartfren andromax u

dengan harga rilis sekarang user smartfren mengharapkan mendapatkan handset dengan processor quadcore , memori 1 GB , dan chip graphic adreno 205 , bukan 203 seperti bawaan maxi , walaupun sudah di tarik dengan iming iming upgrade os sampai ke jelly bean tidak mempengaruhi minat untuk berganti ke andromaxu,

Rikomagic MK802IIIS 8BT 20130118 firmware upgrade procedure


Hello everybody.
In today's post I'll show you how to flash / upgrade your Rikomagic MK802IIIS Android Mini PC. First of all, you'll have to install Rockusb v2.0 Driver on your PC. If you have Windows 8 you better folow the procedure presented in this video. The driver and the RK Batch Tool can be downloaded from here.



Next, download the latest Rikomagic firmware version 20130118 from here or from here
Now you have to put the MK802IIIS in 'firmware update mode'. For that, you have to run RK Batch Tool, prepare a thin metal stick, press the recover button by the stick according below method, connect the unit with computer through the USB OTG port, not the power port (Micro USB to USB cable), hold it for 3-5 seconds and then loose the stick.


This procedure will cost 3 minutes so please wait patiently, during recovery/upgrade, don’t remove the USB cable. When the final prompt window appears, then means recovery is successful, pull out USB cable, then total process is finished. 

First turn on the unit after recovery/update will cost more long time, and even occur some lag issue, it’s normal since internal applications file need to be decompressed and occupy RAM, after 5 minutes, then system running well. So don’t worry about that. If you get stuck, may consider to restart the device.



Rikomagic firmware version 20130118 Fix list:

1. Fixed MAC address changeable issue;
2. Added WIFI hotspot function;
3. Improvied USB connected with PC method:
power on the stick-->setting->select "usb connect with PC"->power off,pull out the stick.
Then connect the stick with computer,stick will default USB Slave method.
4. Flash first partition from 504MB changed ot 1.23GB.

Kekecewaan Andromaxu

perasaan kecewa terpancar jelas kepada para peminat smartfren andromaxu , pupus harapan mereka menantikan paket bundling murah smartfren andromax u yang tak murah lagi, selisih harga yang lumayan tinggi menjadi penghalang laju maxu , bila di banding kan dengan andromaxi tetapi tetap ada juga yang setia menantikan walaupun harus merogoh kocek yang lebih dalam.
dengan harga yang di perkirakan lebih dari 1,7 juta hampir di pastikan memberatkan beberapa minat konsumen , karena dengan harga segitu sudah mendekati harga dari beberapa handset ber brand merk terkenal lainnya , semisal HTC , bila di compare head o head hampir mendekati dengan spek yang lebih tinggi dibanding dengan brand yang di gandeng smartfren yaitu innos i6, merk tersebut di negara asalnya memang sudah mengeluarkan banyak produk tapi belum mendunia , smartfren merebranding innos dengan pertimbangan bila melanjutkan brand hisense seri di atas maxi belum terjadi banyak perubahan pada perangkat device nya .
sudah jelas di pastikan user lebih memilih menunggu lagi seri andromax berikutnya menunggu andromaxu turun harga senasib dengan andromaxi
====================================
ANDROMAXI SCRIPT & CWM Based Recovery

====================================

DISLAIMER : Saya tidak bertanggung jawab apabila terjadi hal hal yang tidak diinginkan, saya telah mempraktekkan pada device saya dan dapat berfungsi sebagai mana fungsinya.

====================================
-----------Andromaxi HS-EG909 Script---------------
----------------latest version : v 1.1------------------
====================================
Jalankan proses di windows, script saat ini support windows operating system

Menu/Feature :
---Run In Fastboot ---
1.Install cwm based recovery
2.Install touch recovery
3.restore stock recovery
4.Reboot

---Run In ADB ---
5.root via ADB (for Anvance user only)
6.Unroot via ADB (not recomended)
7.Init.d Support
8.Reboot
9.Reboot Recovery
0.Reboot Bootloader (fastboot)


More feature come...
Please downnload cwm-recovery.img , touch-recovery.img and stock-recovery.img
and place it inside the data folder so file will be
Andromaxi/
Andromaxi/Andromaxi.bat
Andromaxi/Notes.txt
Andromaxi/data/* (adb, fastboot etc)
Andromaxi/data/cwm-recovery.img
Andromaxi/data/touch-recovery.img
Andromaxi/data/stock-recovery.img
To run the script just double click Andromaxi.bat and follow the scripts..

Extra :
- bootanimation.zip from CM10 (480x800 boot animation) install in /system/media/
- CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip (SuperSU App and su binary, busybox not included) install via cwm recovery

Untuk Menu 1 - 4 dilakukan di Fastboot
Untuk Menu 5 - 0 dilakukan di ADB (lihat notes dibawah)
Gmana cara install adb ato fastbootnya cari info sendiri

Silahkan download file Andromaxi.zip kemudian extrak didalamnya sudah ada file pendukung untuk adb dan fastboot (bukan driver)
Untuk file cwm-recover.img, cwm touch-recovery.img dan stock-recovery.img sengaja saya pisah karena kemungkinan kedepannya akan saya update, silahkan download dan dimasukkan ke folder data.
Anda juga dapat mencoba versi cwm lain dan rename menjadi cwm-recovery.img

Misalnya: download 6.0.1.9-cwm-recovery.img (versi 6.0.1.9) dan di rename menjadi cwm-recovery.img kemudian masukkan ke folder data

Download : https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dptph0ldj5cegvu/LvgTq-6iPH

untuk menjalankan script cukup menjalankan file Andromaxi.bat dan memilih menu yang diinginkan..

Untuk instalasi Driver ADB dan fastboot cara paling mudah adalah dengan mengkoneksikan device dengan pc pada mode data connection kemudian install aplikasi bawaan smartfren..

Tambahan buat Aktifin ADB conection karena banyak yang tanya:
  • koneksikan Andromaxi ke komputer dengan kabel usb
  • pilih : data connections
  • Akan muncul cd rom di komputer untuk instalasi modem, install jika belum terinstall
  • setelah selesai eject cd (hal ini akan mengaftifkan adb connections (Debuging)
  • eject cd ini diperlukan setiap ingin menjalankan adb.exe
  • atau dapat pula dengan menginstall android sdk
  • pastikan adb dapat terkoneksi dengan baik
  • Pastikan vendor id  ; 0x109b ada di C:\Users\Nama User Anda\.android\adb_usb.ini
  • Jika belum ada folder .android di C:\Users\Nama User Anda\ copy folder .android dalam folder Andromaxi ke C:\Users\Nama User Anda\

Last : sekali lagi mengingatkan : DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK

===========================================================
CWM Based Recovery
===========================================================

Source : https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery
Latest version : 6.0.2.3

Work :
  • Backup
  • Restore
  • Install zip (sdcard, internal sd, via adb)
  • wipe dalvic cache
  • wipe cache
  • wipe data
  • fix permission
  • Partition SD card (untuk buat partisi ke 2 (/sd-ext) n swap partition

Bug :
  • Kadang reboot dan reboot recovery cukup lama (jangan kaget, kalo emang gak reboot reboot cabut batere)

Download : https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dptph0ldj5cegvu/LvgTq-6iPH

Jika menggunakan Andrmaxi Script diatas, script mengenali lokasi image
1.Install cwm based recovery >>> /data/cwm-recovery.img
2.Install touch recovery >>> /data/touch-recovery.img
3.restore stock recovery >>> /data/stock-recovery.img

sehingga jika perlu rename nama image sesuai deengan nama diatas
misal 6.0.2.3-cwm-recovery.img >>> cwm-recovery.img

Update: jika ada temuan lebih baru atau versi lebih baru saya akan update

Latest Build
  • 6.0.2.3-cwm-recovery.img : Custom build using 6.0.2.3 source, 8 november kernel + some file from stock recovery (fix reboot issue : i hope.... )

Mohon Rename File tersebut menjadi cwm-recovery.img sebelum instalasi menggunakan Andromaxi script >>> /data/cwm-recovery.img

Note :
untuk touch-recovery.img di build dengan mesin dikarenakan saya belum mendapat soucecode untuk touchnya... kemungkinan ada error atau fungsi yang belum jalan... klo mau testing silahkan, namun saya merekomendasikan menggunakan yang biasa saja..

===========================================================
ROOT UNROOT VIA ADB Tanpa Recovery

Notes : Hal ini sudah tidak diperlukan lagi karena root dapat dilakukan melalui instalasi zip melalui cwm recovery..

Requirement:


Skema :
  • Memanfaatkan hole yang ada di ICS pada saat backup- restore yang memungkinkan kita menulis di /data
  • melakukan restore dengan fakebackup.ab
  • exlpoit shell "while ! ln -s /data/local.prop /data/data/com.android.settings/a/file99; do :; done"
  • memasang su, busybox di /system/xbin
  • memasang superuser.apk di /system/app

Langkah Kerja :
  • Install Terminal Emulator di Andromaxi : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en
  • download Andromaxi.zip kemudian extrak 
  • koneksikan Andromaxi ke komputer dengan kabel usb
  • pilih : data connections
  • Akan muncul cd rom di komputer untuk instalasi modem, install jika belum terinstall
  • setelah selesai eject cd (hal ini akan mengaftifkan adb connections (Debuging)
  • eject cd ini diperlukan setiap ingin menjalankan adb.exe
  • atau dapat pula dengan menginstall android sdk
  • pastikan adb dapat terkoneksi dengan baik
  • Pastikan vendor id  ; 0x109b ada di C:\Users\Nama User Anda\.android\adb_usb.ini
  • Jika belum ada folder .android di C:\Users\Nama User Anda\ copy folder .android dalam folder Andromaxi ke C:\Users\Nama User Anda\
  • Buka folder Andromaxi
  • Jalankan Andromaxi.bat
  • Pilih Mode yang diinginkan 3 untuk root 4 untuk unroot
  • saat diminta untuk restore buka Andromaxi dan pilih restore
  • untuk rooting ditengah proses setelah reboot android akan eror SystemUI crash ini berarti exploit masuk dan Andromaxi masuk mode emulator sehingga kita dapat menyisipkan dil su, busybox dan superuser.apk
  • Saat eror anda perlu mebuka Terminal Emulator dan mengetikkan : am start -n com.android.settings/.deviceinfo.UsbSettingsManager (penulisan huruf besar kecil berpengaruh)
  • Hal ini dilakukan untuk membuka opsi USB sehingga kita dapat melanjutkan proses selanjutnya (Perlu koneksi ADB -- jangan lupa untuk eject cd untuk mengaktifkan debugging atau proses tidak dapat dilanjutkan.
  • Untuk Unroot tinggal pilih menu no 4

Metode Lain : http://www.cidtux.net/2/post/2012/11/cara-root-smartfren-andromax-i-ad683g-hisense-eg909-di-linux.html
hampir sama prinsipnya hanya menggunakan linux dan metode yang berbeda pada instalasi su,busybox dan superusernya

Apabila tejadi kegagalan dapat dilangi prosesnya, terburuknya melakukan factory reset pada setting dan akan kehilangan data dan aplikasi yang telah di install

sekalilagi mengingatkan : DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK

For testing only, klo gak yakin tunggu dari master master yang lain, misal lewat mode recovery yang lebih cepat dan tidak perlu repot....

NB : Maaf Scriptnya pake bahasa inggris ...

Semoga bermanfaat, mohon koreksi klo ada yang salah, maklum baru punya android ... masi newbie

Kenyataan andromaxu



Akhirnya penantian sedikit berujung kecewa dengan di keluarkannya preorder di sebuah forum , sontak mengkagetkan para peminatnya , pertama dari sektor harga , harga yang di keluarkan di preorder dapat spesial harga 1,7 jt itu pun dalam tarif spesial terus harga tarif biasa berapa mungkin bisa lebih mahal lagi ini smartfren andromaxu , terpaut selisih 500 ribuan lebih dari maxi yang harus di bayar untuk upgrade nya
dengan ber badan innos i6C harga bandrol aslinya adalah $226 atau sekitaran di 2,2 juta rupiah , tetapi smartfren menjanjikan subsidi di bawah 2 jutaan ,





untuk harga yang di tolelir atau di terima oleh user adalah di sekitaran 1,5 juta di atas itu user berfikir lebih untuk memilih device lain yang branded merk terkenal sekalian , soalnya dari spesifikasi juga masih nanggung , dengan harapan kalau harga 1,7 Ram nya 1 Gb mungkin masih di terima akan tetapi yang di dapatkan kurang dari itu , terlebih lagi adanya kabar tentang material pembungkus bodi andromaxu yang terbuat dari plastik dan gampang tergores berbeda dengan seri sebelumnya smartfren andromaxi pada bagian belakang bodi di lapisi lapisan doff sehingga tidak licin ketika di pegang khusus untuk yang berwarna hitam , nah untuk andromax u ini semuanya seperti produk smartfren andromaxi putih lapisan plastik semua

Prelaunch Andromax U

Menjelang kemunculannya yang di tunggu tunggo oleh gadget mania low budget , smartfren andromaxu semakin siap untuk memanjakan Konsumen nya , tinggal beberapa hari lagi untuk menikmati atau mendapatkan varian terbaru seri andromax . dengan performa dan tampilan yang baru menarik konsumen lama untuk di buat penasaran mengikuti perkembangan handset terbaru andromaxu , ini terbukti dengan makin ber wara wiri varian andromax lama mulai di tawarkan untuk di jual . berbagai situs jual beli online mulai diramaikan dengan bursa bekas perangkat andromax lama dan menurut sumber info di outlet penjulanan handset baru smartfren pembelian andromax i mulai turun drastis , hampir 80% , berbeda dengan varian tablet smartfren penjualan nya masih stabil tidak terpengaruh dengan akan di keluarkannya perangkat baru andromax u ,
konsumen sudah tidak sabar mempersiapkan diri untuk meminang varian terbaru ini , mereka yang berencana akan membeli smartfren andromaxi tertahan mereka memilih menahan diri menunggu andromaxu keluar walaupun harganya lebih mahal dari maxi , mereka berharap menjadi yang pertama ada juga yang wait n see apakah andromax u ini benar benar lebih baik dari andromax i sebelumnya , kita tunggu tanggal maiinya.
review pembeli sementara
lebih tertarik ke max u karena layarnya lebih lega 4,5 " , dan prosessor yang lebih cepat , kamera dengan megapixels lebih tinggi ada lampu flashnya , dan RAM lebih banyak jadi bisa untuk instal game lebih banyak , dan harganya yang worthed banget , sangat masuk dan terjangkau dapat di sebandingkan dengan handset yang berharga di atas 2 jutaan , dan tersedianya forum komunitas yang siap mengoprek sehingga bisa di kustom sesuai dengan keinginan pemakai.

Rikomagic MK802IIIS Android 4.1 Mini PC



I had just received yesterday the Rikomagic MK802IIIS HDMI Stick, toghether with the MK702 Air Remote and I'm very pleased by the design and quality of the new and improved version of Rikomagic MK802 series device. I already own a Rikomagic MK802II stick and I like them both because a HDMI Android stick like this is a great Media Player and turns instantly a dump LCD/LED/Plasma TV into a fancy Smart TV. Running Android 4.1, the MK802IIIS Mini PC is designed for versatility and convenience, and when it is plugged directly into any HDMI input display it become a complete Media Center with internet browsing and an excelent game console.

The MK802IIIS is a little bit larger than a flash pen drive and the package includes HDMI cable, USB power cable, USB OTG adapter and User Manual in english. I got the version with 8 GB space of internal memory and Bluetooth chip.


Overview 

Small and Powerful 
The new Rikomagic Dual Core MK802IIIS measures just 90mm long, but despite its small size it managed to fit the blazingly fast RK3066 SOC inside for super snappy performance, it is at least twice as fast as the previous generation MK802 mini PC, so there's no lag here! The MK802III takes its power from a spare USB port on your TV/Display, which means there's no unsightly wires and on most modern TV's it can be completely hidden. 

Quad Core Graphics 
Fancy gaming? The MK802IIIS features a Quad Core Mali Graphics Proccessor which means its finally possible to bring your favourite Android 3D shooter to the big screen! It's no lie the MK802IIIS is one of the fastest Android devices around, the combined power of the RK3066 SoC and Mali Graphics allow stunning performance in full HD resolutions. The onboard hardware video decoder and DLNA support allows realtime streaming of HD video from a USB drive or NAS device. 

Get connected. Stay connected.
The MK802IIIS features 1 x Full Size USB Host, 1 x Micro USB (for power) and 1 x Micro USB Host (OTG). There's also a Micro SD card slot for expanding the storage on the device, up to 32 GB. You can also plug in any removable media. The MK802III comes with built in WIFI and the 8GB version is available with internal Bluetooth. 

All the best Apps 
The MK802IIIS comes with JellyBean 4.1, the latest Android OS which includes the Google Play Store so you can have access to hundreds of thousands of apps right on your TV.
