aiyoo.... so in dilemma... just got my unifi and hypptv installed early this month.. to flash or not to flash?

thinking of going the HyppTV_APK_Installer.zip way... has anyone failed using this method?

by the way, can someone confirm if these apps work on stb

- livestream
- ustream
- tune radio

many thanks.

Why is it that when i try to surf the web using the browser inside the STB i keep getting the security warning pop-up window and i need to keep pressing OK button? is there anyway to prevent this?

Tq.

Bro, if i install ur app i.e. HyppTV_APK_Installer.zip from the recovery menu, then i should be able to install any apps from a USB drive.. is that right? i do NOT even need to do the steps described in the very first page of this thread?

And if i want to have Apptoide or Google Play Store, i will need to install them from the USB drive too?

If all apps will be installed via the HyppTV app, then what use would there be to install Apptiode or Google Play Store on the STB since u wont be installing anything through them anyway.. is this correct? (sorry i never used Apptoide but if it's anything like Play Store u cant download app from inside it but can only install?)

Just want to make sure i really understand everything correctly before messing about my STB

P/S: Any luck with Ustream, Livestream and TuneRadio apps?

Thanks a lot. That helped.

Happy CNY too

Can we later uninstall an installed apk??

Ok, finally i managed to update my STB with your great installer app.. all went well.. then i downloaded aptoide and youtube apk on my pc, transferred to USB drive then installed on STB using your app.. installation went well too..

But the youtube app when run keeps asking me to update to latest version but when i clicked update nothing happened.. i'm thinking maybe it's not the correct version for my STB and maybe i should have installed youtube from Aptoide instead..

Now i'm downlading FB from Aptoide but the downloading is extremely slow for a 5Mbps line... is this normal?

I am aware about the pre-installed FB app, i just wanted to test the Aptoide installer

If i run the speed test app and it shows that my STB is NOT using the full bandwidth, is there anything i can do? any setting i need to tweak?

If i installed youtube using your installer, would i be able to uninstall it from Settings? i went to Manage Apps menu in Settings but the Uninstall button is grayed out..

What actually does the 'Install update from backup' menu on the Recovery screen do? will it simply revert the installed apps back to the default set? or will it also wipe out all Hypptv settings configured by the Unifi installer?

If i re-do the 10 steps to update your HyppTV_APK_Installer.zip, will it simply install your app on the STB without touching other apps? or will it revert the apps to the default set plus your apk installer?

Sorry i still don't quite understand how the update mechanism on STB work...

Actually i did install youtube via your installer.. then it should be in user space, right? and should be uninstallable?

What about all the settings on the STB? will they get wiped too if i do 'update from backup'?

I downloaded youtube apk from Google Play on my pc, saved in my USB drive, open Hypp_apk installer on STB, found the youtube installer on USB drive then installed.

[UPDATE]

Ok, just to update.. so i did manage to uninstall youtube.. not sure how come the first time i tried the Uninstall button was disabled.. thanks..

Sorry i guess i was updating my post above when u posted this... issue resolved

May i know which one is actually the original ROM file for EC6106V5 STB? i want to save it just in case

Hi,

I installed Youtube for TV from Aptoide but when launched, it was empty.. i could see only empty boxes and the image for all videos would not load..

I tried to search but i got this "There was a problem starting up. Please check your network connection and system time"...

I can confirm that my connection is set up correctly as i can surf the net and use other network apps without problem..

Anyone has any idea?

Bro,

I'm interested to know how you resolved your youtube for tv issue because your problem was similar to mine.. was it just the date and time setting on the STB? because i checked mine the date and time were correct.. auto-synced via NTP server..

My youtube for tv still showing empty boxes...

I'm on Unifi by the way and wifi is configured and working well.. i can surf youtube via browser, download apps from aptoide, watch iptv, etc..

Only youtube for tv giving problem for now.. any other idea..?

Finally it works!

After much CSI work, i figured that somehow youtube for tv cannot use vlan500 via wifi but it requires vlan600 on port 4. So what i did was i disabled wifi, let youtube run with wlan connection for a while, then reconnect wifi and everything back to normal..

My only observation is that some videos cannot be played on youtube, i cannot sign in, i cannot click the Options menu item and the default language set is Malay instead of English.. but i'm ok for now..

I have installed the iptv app.. anyone knows where to find reliable FREE m3u links?

Same here... Kodi doesn't seem to be supported by the processor... anyone had any luck with this?

What's the next best alternative to Kodi?

hmm.. guys.. pls help me decide which cloud tv app to install on my STB?? pls state the software author easier to find.. thanks.

Have you made sure your wifi on the STB is correctly enabled?

I downloaded the latest versions and these were my observation (i only tried to play the first minute of the movie):

1) Popcorn Time - showed movie titles but could not play any.. error "not enough disk space"

2) HD Cinema - managed to play movies at 360p only.. anything above that showed lagging

3) Play Box - could not connect to server at all

4) Show Box - managed to play movies in LOW quality, anything above that would show lagging

I'm on 5Mbps line btw.. i'm curious to know how others are doing..
