Hi all,

How do you all managed the latest TM HyppTV Huawei EC6108v8 storage??
Is only 2GB right? but systems and data already used almost 60% of it.
It seemed not enough and almost full. I only installed Kodi & MxPLayer.
I did disable some pre-installed apps to get more storage but still storage is in critical level now.

Clearing cache didn't help much..

Hi all,

Been reading this thread a while now.. not sure if here is the correct thread to throw a question.. please bare me alright..

One quick question: Anyone here downloaded Astro On The Go app in Playstore and link it to your Astro account (or friend account if you'd already terminated Astro service)?

One could safe money by using friend's Astro ID (with their consent) and enjoy it in your STB under TMUnifi line. You'll got the best of both world....

Haven't done it myself cuz I don't exactly care about Astro's premium services.... However, it shouldn't be an issue provided the app does run properly on the box's hardware. I mean, the whole point of the AOTG app is for subscribers to watch media on the "move". So I doubt Astro would discriminates when it comes to what device is being logged on... I stand corrected if someone knows otherwise.

Yes, I thought about it and there might have some codec or plugins restriction... But for sure we could use PC or laptop to launch IE, Mozila and Safari.

I just got a very good friend of mine sharing her Astro ID with me..

Attachment shows Astro allow up until 3 authentication/registered devices to be loggin for this On-The-Go service.

Well, FYI I'd terminated my Astro long ago and just wish now I got the best of both world.. umm to be exact free Astro.. huhuhu..!

Getting the best of both worlds isn't entirely bad..  tongue.gif.. Do be careful as according to the attachment, upon attempting to register a fourth device, one previously authenticated device has to be removed. This change can only happen ONCE a month.

Yes.. that's why my friend isn't use her ID for the Astro on the go at all. It's kind of her letting me use it now..

Just tested yesterday night after got home. Our playstore in Unifi STB doesn't allow to install Astro On The Go app. It's says incompatible. So I downloaded the apk using browser and transferred it via USB thumb drive and installed. Installation authentication with genuine ID all worked well.. streaming astro sports channel is absolutely beautiful..!

The app and its streaming is quite smooth in our STB though. But you'll need mouse to navigate in the app menu/contents. Streaming sports channel is like watching from real Astro decoder and far better than streaming sports from Kodi. So no complain here as it is absolutely free.

It's actually follow your(the owner) Astro subscription. But not all the entire package will be exactly in the AOTG. However, I'm onto this mainly for the Sports channels.. smile.gif . Don't know about Unifi 10Mbps as I'm using Unifi 30Mbps.

For those who really into Sports.. My advise is go and try it.. it is the best we could get on nearly perfect sports streaming in high quality without stuttering/buffering.

Some tips to save space and avoid that annoying no space notification message popups on your screen.

1. Go to settings and force stop and disable any apps that you dont need including Play Store, this culprit always use 100s of MB play store service files that consume space. trust me you dont need the play store after you have ES explorer to install apk.

See only these apps left under My Applications

Kodi - Program - Android Apps - Settings(two Settings here, choose the Android original Settings) - Manage App - Disable

Ex file explorer - internal storage - remove/delete all junks/unwanted files/folders that not associating anything.

Kodi - Program - Android Apps - Settings(as above) - Manage Storage - Clear Cache

Exit Kodi - restart HyppTV STB.

Note: You might have run the same steps as I did.. well, different people gets different luck sometimes..

Currently had already removed browser & google settings as well.. never use it anyway..

My 2nd Hypptv box is still no update. What I had done to this box..

1. I use Google DNS.
2. I change the Admin and Operator login ID and Password.
3. I'd restricted to specific Mac Address to connect the WIFI.
4. I had configured the HyppTV connection to a Wireless by enabling 2nd SSID specific for LAN port 4. So no more cable.
5. I had removed the update link in Settings -> Maintenance.
4. Playstore Settings - Manual Update.
6. Always Switch-Off the box after use.
7. Teach the Wife & kids not to accept any update prompt by quickly switch the box Off button.
9. Always prepare $$$ to buy new box in case worst thing happen.
10. Sit back and relax with Home-Made Nescafe while enjoying your entertainments..!

Hi, I have the new white HyppTV Box.
But, I want to connect to WIFI to watch HyppTV channel. (Because I got 'surprise' for Jumbo pack, Lol).

Any setting or configuration?

I believe that if I on WLAN on the HyppTV Box, the box will have Internet connection but unable to view the channel?
Correct me if I am wrong.

I'd configured mine and it worked marvelously. So you would end up having two SSID(Wifi network) after the settings are done.
Word of caution.. be very careful in thinkery when you're in the admin settings.

Here you go.. the guide..

Don't waste time to try the youtube apk, it won't work. But you can use the KODI youtube addon and that will work perfectly.

I have Youtube-TV apk downloaded and side load it to the box. It work perfectly for the family..
The one from playstore would not work and Youtube in Kodi not really user friendly.

I'm using the latest one available at apkpure. As for DNS.. i had to disable DNS or VPN as aotg is geolocked, if DNS/ VPN on the app will detect different region and refused to play.

Hi... can you explain in more details how you use the DNS or VPN to work??
I'd tried but latest Astro Go refuse to work on my side.
