why is it wrong to sell unused hypptv?
by the way, what is the best mod for ec6108v8 model? i have my smart tv to cater for most needs. even the dumbest tv today can play h264 videos via USB without problem, rendering the hypptv useless.

I can't remember the exact backstory. Though I was probably referring to the heat on ehem iptv. So if selling a pre-configured box setup with ehem stuffs....

Installing IPTV app is illegal now? People can also install such thing on the phone.

Since the box is running on KitKat, is it still easy to find IPTV app? All my phones are running at least Android 8.

People can also come rob you right now.. Does that make it legal? Better you go Google yourself and see if people have been charged to court or not.

those are people who sell tvboxes that are not approved by MCMC. we're referring to boxes given by TM.

Boxes by TM... Did it ship with illegal apps and or services? That's like saying, just cuz you bought PC without an OS, that means it's legal to install a pirated Microsoft Windows OS on it and or pirated Microsoft Office..  Look, this isn't even worth my time trying to explain. And we're off topic d.. You do you.

Nvm, just installed Smart Youtube TV as replacement, surprisingly its better which can login too, no ads..I believe some people recommended it before here 😁

Hi Bro, may I know where you get the installer from?

I have got an unused EC6108 and have terminated my Unifi service. Can I use it as a kodi box removing all about HyppTV by reverting it to the stock firmware?

Yes you can..

Can revert back to Huawei stock firmware?

My router can show bandwidth usage of current channel. Many channels eg Fox / Korean use 9 Mbps. Free channels like TV3 only 2-3 Mbps. Normally 9 Mbps is 1080p.

What router is that?

After careful comparison, I found that there are 16 apk files missing from the new firmware with 8 missing from /system/app and another 8 missing from /system/priv-app:

Our main concern is regarding the Google Play Store which in turn it requires 3 more apps in order to subscribe to Google Play Service, namely:
1. GmsCore.apk
2. GoogleLoginService.apk
3. GoogleServicesFramework.apk
4. Phonesky.apk

If you are a survivor from this year update that still managed to retain the capability of app installation, either with file manager/remote control by phone/non-stock browser/other third party app store installed, you may proceed with KingRoot installation first.

You cannot simply install them through normal procedure as they will be installed under /data/app. You just need to copy them into /system/priv-app and set their permissions accordingly, i.e. 644 (rw-r--r--) using file manager with root access such as Root Explorer HD which accommodates to TV display and responsive to remote control. You need to reboot after completing that. Voila! You have your old faithful Google Play Store and Google Settings back in no time.

You may be tempted to restore all those apps in /system/app and /system/priv-app. But I advise you better leave them off as they are all outdated and eventually will get updated in /data/app which results in a lot of space being occupied, not to mention some of the stock apps like YouTube never seem to work.

In conclusion, this is not really a third method in restoring Google Play Store which requires you gained app installation capability in the first place and then root access. The well-known method is reverting to old firmware through recovery mode which is the easiest way but you risk of being updated again unless you wipe off the update server address in Settings or never connect using LAN cable which defeats the purpose of receiving HyppTV channels. Another method is using the Huawei STB Management hacking which originated from China and you need a PC to do that. With some luck you may be able getting them connected but most of the time you don’t.
