Video: How to easily flash new stock firmware on Rikomagic MK68 TV Box

  
Instructions

1. Download the latest stock firmware from here and extract the archive on your desktop.
2. Second, be ready to connect Rikomagic MK68 TV Box to your computer. Prepare an USB cable (male USB to male USB cable); insert one USB to computer USB port. Prepare also a thin metal stick; press the reset button from the bottom side, like in the video below. Don’t loose the stick, at same time, insert the second USB to the unit USB OTG port, in the rear side. After 3-5 seconds, loose the stick.
3. Install driver using RK Driver Assistant
4. Burn the image with Rockchip Batch Tool v1.8 using 'Restore' button.

This process will take about 4 minutes, please wait patiently, during recovery/upgrade, don’t remove the USB cable and don’t power off during updating or recovering. First reboot of the unit after recovery/update will take more long time than usual, and even occur some lag issue, it’s normal since internal apk files need to be decompressed and occupy RAM, after 5 minutes, then system will be running well. So don’t worry about that.

Easy fix for 0x803F7000 & 0x803F7003 Windows Error



Today I wanted to install some new applications from Windows Store on my new Chuwi Hi8 tablet with Windows 10 Pro on board, but I got all the time 0x803F7000 error. So I search the web and I found only one solution: to reset the Windows Store application by runnin 'wsreset' command. and maybe reboot after. Did that 2-3 times with no results.

Then I found myself the cause of this problem: the time of my Windows tablet wasn't synchronized with the internet time.

So to fix this problem simply go to 'Control Panel' --> Clock, Language, and Region --> Date and Time --> Internet Time --> Change settings --> Check 'Synchronize with an internet time server', choose a server and press 'Update now' button. Ok.

You don't need to reboot, once the time is synchronized. Enter Windows Store and restart the installations of your applications. Now everything works as it was supposed. That's it!

How to easily reset the BIOS of Voyo Mini PC. Download BIOS back-up file from here!



This is a simple guide on how to easily reset the BIOS of Voyo Mini PC. I messed up some settings in BIOS the othe day, as I was trying to install also Android, and somehow I disabled the USB support in BIOS, so I had to reset BIOS to default settings.

If you want to do that, you have to download first 'Voyo Mini PC BIOS' archive from here, here or here. (2,44 MB) I advise everyone to make a copy of a working BIOS, if possible, before doing BIOS experiments. To do that you can simple use the provided afuwin-5.05.04 software. If you disabled USB in the BIOS, just like I did by mistake, only overwriting NVRAM can reset BIOS settings. In this way, there is no need to open the case, to teardown Voyo Mini PC, to reset the CMOS. All the actions are made from Windows environment, so your Mini PC has to be able to boot into Windows. All the following actions that are you will do next are entirely at your own risk.


BIOS details
Archive name: Voyo Mini PC BIOS
Archive size: 2,44 MB
Archive content:  afuwin-5.05.04 (afuwin32 & afuwin64) & Voyo_mini_PC_Bios_Backup_25.03.2015.rom

For flashing NVRAM: 
1. Download the above archive. It is better to extract the content to the disk C. 
2. Open as administrator Afuwingui.exe \afuwin\32\AfuWin32\Afuwingui.exe. 
3. Open original backuped bios. Uncheck default 'Main BIOS Image' and check only NVRAM box. Press Flash. And best of all, start a command prompt as administrator and type, for example: C:\AfuWin32\afuwin.exe BIOS.rom /N  
4. Press exit and restart the PC. After boot go into the BIOS and reset settings to default.

I tested myself and everything worked like a charm. Now my Voyo Mini PC BIOS is back to default settings.

 


All the credits for this are going to 2 Freaktab.com forum members:_NiK user for tutorial and to robertnik user for back-up BIOS file.

To flash the firmware, you have first to flash the PhilZ Touch Recovery.



A. How to flash PhilZ Touch Recovery
1. CHECK DEVICE MODEL NO.
To make sure your device is eligible with this, you must first confirm its model no. in ‘About device’ option under Settings. Another way to confirm model no. is by looking for it on the packaging box of your device. It must be Samsung GT-P5100! Do not use the procedures discussed here on any other Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 variants or any other device of Samsung or any other company. You have been warned! 
2. BACKUP YOUR DEVICE
Back up important data and stuff before you start playing around here as there are chances you might lose your apps and app-data (app settings, game progress, etc.), and in rare case, files on the internal memory, too. 
3.INSTALL LATEST DRIVER
You must have proper and working driver installed on your windows computer to be able to successfully flash PhilZ Touch Recovery on your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. You can download it from here.
4. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Download the above archive, and you'll find inside Odin zip file and PhilZ tar.md5 files. Transfer both Odin and recovery tar file to a separate folder on your computer just to keep things tidy.
Extract/Unzip the Odin zip file, Latest Odin3 v3.09.zip on your computer to get this file: Odin3 v3.09.exe
Move philz_touch_6.57.8-p5100.tar.md5 in the same folder in which you extracted Latest Odin3 v3.09.zip (Just for your convenience, that is). So, now you’ll have the following files in that folder:

    Odin3 v3.09.exe
    philz_touch_6.57.8-p5100.tar.md5

Disconnect the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 from PC if it is connected.
Double-click the Odin3 v3.09.exe file to open Odin.
Boot your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 into Download Mode
Power off your tablet first and wait for 6-7 seconds after display is off
Press and hold these 3 buttons together until you see Warning! screen: Volume Down + Power + home
Press Volume Up now to continue to Download Mode
Connect your Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 to PC. Odin window will show an Added!! message in bottom left box. Odin’s screen would look like this:


If you don’t get the Added! message, here are some troubleshooting tips:
Make sure you have installed driver for Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 as said above.
If you have already installed driver, then uninstall them and re-install back.
Connect using a different USB port on your PC.
Try a different USB cable. The original cable that came with your tablet should work best, if not, try any other cable that’s new and of good quality.
Reboot tablet and PC and then try again.

Load the recovery file (Step 2) into Odin as instructed below:
Click on the AP button on Odin and select the
philz_touch_6.57.8-p5100.tar.md5file (from step 2). Your Odin window should look something  like the screenshot below:

Now in the Option section of Odin, make sure that Re-Partition box is unchecked. (Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time boxes remain checked, while all other boxes remain unchecked.)
Double check the above two steps.
Click the Start button to begin flashing PhilZ Touch Recovery on your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5100, and wait until you see a PASS! message in Odin’s top left box.
When you get PASS! message, your tablet will restart automatically. You can then disconnect your tablet from PC.


PhilZ Touch Recovery has installed successfully on your Tab 2 10.1. To boot your Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 into Recovery Mode:
Power off your tablet first and wait for 6-7 seconds after display is off.
Press and hold these 3 buttons together: Volume Up + Power + home.

If you see FAIL message instead of the PASS in Odin’s top left box, that’s a problem. Try this now: disconnect your Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 from PC, close Odin, hold the Power button for 10 seconds which will force restart the tablet, open Odin and then repeat from Step 5 of this guide again.

Also, If device is Stuck at setup connection or on any other process, then too, try this: disconnect your Tab 2 10.1 from PC, close Odin, hold the Power button for 10 seconds which will force restart the tablet, open Odin and then repeat from Step 5 of this guide again.
