R-Box Rockchip 2918 Google TV

[ltaronger]

Yesterday I install on my PC Real VNC Free edition version 4.3 RealVNC Free Edition - Download
and on my Google TV VNC viewer android https://market.android.com/details?id=com.realvnc.viewer.android

and all works fain

Thanks Maku19
But I was talking about the opposite action, control the TV-Box from the computer, not VNC Viewer that works fine, but VNC Server that crash.

Any solution could be welcome

Great, many thanks for providing this.
Q: What was the reason of removing the original laucher? Is it possible to set it back.
Is there a way to revert to the original fw just in case?
Which fw version did you have originally?

P.S: Since I have replaced my power adapter my box is not freezing anymore

I replaced the original launcher because I want to have a phone style launcher. Some apps of the origin launcher aren't working, so I replaced. Other launchers give you more freedom as you can place on it what you want, e.g. widgets.

Your dlna.apk is the S2 apk? that is samsung's "allshare", and only works with samsung phones. You better use "skifta" from market: works better than allshare.

skifta is good, but not correct work with my remote controller. First i need use mouse, and later can use rc.

P.S. this dlna.apk not work for me, need original from gv-2 firmware

If it helps you or anyone else I will upload later ( this is my firs post and I'm not allowed to post links) a rooted firmware for the 4 usb TV Box model. The original firmware is from 09-02-2012, obtained from the seller of my device. I did not made any other modifications except rooting it ( thanks clamel for the tutorial) so feel free to play with it as you like. I've been testing it and it works fine on my device but obviously you are doing it on your own risk. Thanks everyone for your contribution!

Hello, I am new to this forum and have read this thread. i purchased the one with 4 USB Ports in black color. today i have received a 2.4Ghz wireless keyboard with a small touchpad on the side. this one:

I have read in this post that some USB ports are hosts and some are not. i do not know in which of the four ports to click in the USB dongle of the keyboard. i tried all of them but after several seconds, the "mouse cursor" is locked at the bottom of my screen and i do have to again "pair" the dongle with the keyboard. after pairing it will work again for some seconds. the keyboard itself and typing works, even after the cursor gets locked. only the touchpad seems to have problems...

anyone got a solution or idea what happens with my box?

it is original firmware, coming with the box, as i did receive it 4 days ago only.

thank you.

Dear Eny,
please give latest gv-2 original firmware
and answer whether the new ICS firmware for this model???

availability of firmware updates and support from the manufacturer only contributes to sales and vice versa, respectively,
