Here is an Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean rooted firmware for the Rikomagic RKM MK802IV MiniPC based on latest Rikomagic official update released 2013/05/23

(IV update FW0523.zip)

Kernel: Linux version 3.0.36+ (hotack@adminroot-X9DRL-3F-iF) (gcc version 4.6.x-google 20120106 (prerelease) (GCC) ) #27 SMP PREEMPT Thu May 23 13:57:21 CST 2013

Custom firmware features:

root with latest SuperSU version 1.30 (free version)
removed most Chinese and unnecessary applications
Google Play Store fixes so more application are visible/compatible
updated busybox v1.21.0.git (2012-11-29)
Unix like init.d boot scripts support, more details on init.d scripts here
changed permissions on external sdcard to allow write access

Download: kasty-rkm_mk802iv-422-20130522_rooted5.zip

Please flash with Rockchip Batch Tool 1.6, use Restore button.

Please report any problem with this firmware, I can't verify this custom firmware works as I don't have a Rikomagic MK802IV device to test the custom firmware.

thanks for this!!!!

it works and root is proper as well as busybox

tested su prompt with root explorer and tested busybox with root tools

I am still experiencing the issue of B/T seeing some of my devices but not able to communicate to connect... the main device I wish to use is red samurai b/t android game controller... it did same thing on stock rom but works well with mk802IIIs so maybe there is a .ko missing in this and the stock firmware ???

maybe compare the mk802IIIs .ko's to the mk802IV ones to fix this ????

thanks again for your work and this is a very nice (almost stock) custom rom for those that want a lite os

***no bloatware in this rom which is awesome

2 thumbs up!!!! cheers!

Update.

Netflix won't work.

It seems JB 4.2.2 scrambles netflix video stream on many Chinese devices. Some kind of digital rights BS. I now want to roll back to 4.1 but can't find any firmware. :/
