It's actually quite simple. You will need a keyboard and mouse. Usb or airmouse one.
- Use the browser and go download the apk you want to install. Sites like apkpure or apkmirror work best.
- Try to download as usual until you get the "Sorry" error.
- On the page you're on should be a link for failed downloads.
- Use mouse and long click on it.
- On the menu that appears choose Save link. You should see Starting download appear briefly on screen.
- Now, using the keyboard hit Ctrl+J and you will get the stock droid Download Manager.
- Wait for download to finish and click on whatever it is you downloaded.
- A familiar app install window should appear. Rest should be self explanatory.
Rinse and repeat.

Do note that installing just the playstore apk doesn't do jack. It won't open. Working on figuring that one out..
Hmmm. Then that update.zip might be gapps along with some other hypptv stuff. Gonna need to get one to test after rooting this box and replacing the recovery.img.. Thanks bro.

Thanks.
Connected to normal WiFi
Not the vlan WiFi

Now browser can browse normally..
But, download not supported... So sad

Hi sifu-sifu is there a step by step instruction on how to convert TM STB EC6108V8 to fully functional one?
attached is the version. (got it mid Jan 2018 when install unifi).

Hope sifu can point the way.

I am not sure what is the capabilities of this STB, just want to make it to full capabilities.

I also got this recently, no other STB.

maybe this device processor and ram not enough la. not sure.

I want to install google app store, youtube, facebook,... make it work like our phone.

I can even use my minix neo u1 as a hotspot too.

why not, I  use my TV Box to keep things, like books and stuff.
Wa, Ka ka ka!
