    Can anyone link me to the latest firmware and how to install it? My mom bought the device early this year and the channels haven't been working or moved around since then. I can't read Chinese so going to the TVpad site isn't an option! And my mom isn't a technical person, so she can't help me >_<

    Luckily I do not have that problem, otherwise I would have smashed that thing for sure :) The only problem I have is that I barely see my TV again.

    I am trying to get 港粤快看 channel to work but nothing will play. I have firmware 2.7 do I need to upgrade to firmware 2.7.2 for it to work?

    Yes, you have to update to 2.72 before you can use the 港粤快看 app.

    Below some video's about the M121S interface:

    I just tried to upgrade to 2.7.2 but it won't let me. I download the file creatent_usb_update_M121_3311_GVOS2, extract the file and put it in my USB card and when I tried to upgrade it says already upgraded. I am stuck!

    The_Jelly NSFW? :P

    You can just MAC filter it through the router when you need to go online.

    You need to put the file "creatent_usb_update_M121_3311_GVOS2.tar" on your USB stick, or did you unzip that one to "creatent_usb_update_M121_3311_GVOS2" ?

    As-in blocking the TVPad completely ??? In that case he is going to be the one being smashed by his parents :) You need to throttle the upload traffic from the TVPad instead through your router (assuming it has that option). It uses P2PTV kind of like torrents. That is probably killing your upload, thus also killing your download if you have ADSL.


    Btw, here are some other videos from the M121s in English.

    OMG! I've been trying to upgrade to 2.7.2 and it keeps saying that it is updated but its not. I've tried USB on Fat32 and NTSF tried on a USB and a external HD. Removed the microsd and unplug this and that and everything comes up "still 2.7" is there anyone who can help me?

    OK still doesn't work. Any other suggestions? Tried the creatent_usb_update_M121_3311_GVOS2.tar on the USB stick and the thing still says 2.7 tried it in NTSF and Fat32 format. The TVPad will look in the USB and when it gets to 15% then it says it is already updated. When I go to the the system file to verify it still says 2.7
