He became the owner of this devaysa, in general the device is working properly: HD 1080p loses no brakes on an Internet you can climb, android market and all that. But there are a number of issues which have not yet found the answer:

1 - on the gyro controller has a central button with the red box, who knows the purpose of this key? (The manual does not mention it)
2 - How does the main power button on the device, on a regular androfone a short press switches off the screen, long press the menu pops up, and then on and off - you reboot the device?
3 - complete with a gyro-USB controller was fine handkerchief, which I took one of the two ports, the issue - it is just the Wi-Fi module, those embedded Wi-Fi device is not available?

Please tell me who know)

2 - Button simple on-off, reboot via the button with the small square on the remote.
3 - Small USB handkerchief purely gyro-controller receiver, a device has an embedded Wi-Fi.

I want to buy this machine. I can not determine the choice: Toucan MANTA or Toucan Nano SX. What is the difference besides price?

1. Well, firstly the price ... Toucan Nano SX cheaper. (Difference 1k)
2. Toucan MANTA is a complete wireless gyro-the controller ... Toucan Nano SX infrared remote control (my wireless gyro-the controller and I believe it is much more convenient remote control)
3. Toucan MANTA with HDMI 1.4 (3D ability to view the presence of such a television or a stereo pair) ... Toucan Nano SX with HDMI 1.3
4. Toucan MANTA has 2hUSB 2.0 ... Toucan Nano SX 3hUSB their 2.0 (more is better, although it is theoretically possible, and connect the USB-hub)
5. Processors mmmda ... ... I do not know what to advise ... Toucan MANTA A8, Toucan Nano SX A9. (Both single-core) and I'm not complaining A9, A8 of reviews is not bad ... I think they are almost equal, so the difference is not very large.
6. Toucan MANTA size of the Flash-Memory 4GB ... Toucan Nano SX size Flash-Memory 2GB (judging by the description) I have 4GB, a complete application set, but hardly took 1GB. And the memory card can be increased applications support transfer to SD.
7. Lastly design ... an amateur ... Toucan MANTA more futuristic, but in red kills. Toucan Nano SX more classic.

If you're a fan reflash your device take Toucan Nano SX him many options firmware (Although they reveal the secret of all creation on Geniatech basis and even with the old kernel and all the clones support the same function) The idea firmware on Toucan Nano SX should be 4.0 .3 and Toucan MANTA 4.0.4

Now, I give my opinion. Design, the gyro-control, Android 4.0.4, HDMI 1.4 and 4GB of memory against 3hUSB ... My advice Toucan MANTA (but we must remember that one USB will be busy USB-receiver from the gyro remote is one ... no ice .. ).

Ed666,
Very detailed answer. + I left.
I think it is necessary to add to the cap (will be even ask)

Another point that Manta operative memory DDR3 - that is what for me was a determining factor in the choice between the two devices.

Friends who have such a device as an unsubscribe please turn off and reboot the device?

There's even got a bad moment, I associate with installed MX player, in my 1080 sticks per minute for a couple of seconds, appeared after resetting the player. (I tested on various video)

I have a native file manager does not see the USB drive, and the player sees MX, total comander in Google plee says that my device is not supported.

PS
I do not use 3D, this can not say anything.

It succeeded finally in the support of the figure of my questions:

1 - button on the device translates the device only in Standby
2 - button on the remote control with a square in the current firmware is not involved

Switching off with the remote in the standard firmware is absent, and the file manager recommended to install ES.

Further:

2. Install tTorrent
3. MX Videoplayer for HD movies
4. 3dvplayer for 3d movie
5. es explorer, opera, ivi, and all sorts of news programs

Good day!
Very interested in this device. Going to buy NG, such as himself and his wife - nice beautiful thing ...
The plan is as follows:
1. TV
2. Manta
3. Active column.
4. Keyboard with Touchpad.
5. Available bad box of Rostelecom - TV program shows.
Manta, of course, to the TV via HDMI, and to acoustics or optics or by analogy for wi-fi network (in principle and twisted pair can hold on).
Goal: online from the couch, movies and music on the network (such as a home, as well as with the outside), photo and so on.

Any questions on the use of:
1. How sound is issued? During the weekend sweep of interfaces or just one? Like, I want to on the video to TV via HDMI, and the sound of optics or equivalent to the column. You will immediately, or will need to be picked?
2. It will be possible to listen to music over the network and internet radio switched off the TV? At friends with other devices were precedents - off TV led to the shutdown.
3. With a DLNA home NASa work on video be? That is, there is such an application?
4. That would have to give up on Rostelecom box and IPTV through the mantle would run ... Dreams.

I would like to ask these questions in the forum iconbit, but already there is a couple of weeks waiting for the activation of your account on the forum. (((

Thanks in advance for answers ...

What's the problem with WCPM on the mantle? I'm on the tablet with Android quietly launched WCPM all tills, took prog with the Market.
Manta on the android market, and she, too, like to be - in a general cause for concern, I do not see.

Waiting itself such, just one of the functions - replacing WCPM console to a TV set.

In short, I bought 3 December and two days of dancing with a tambourine, today handed back.

Reasons: 1) From the remote control does not turn off !!!
2) Films are heavier than 12GB is not rewind, and does not remember where he stayed (third-party codecs and players do not help (installed a bunch of different))
3) Films above 25-30gb inhibit (albeit by lan and from external storage)
3.1) integrated player best way to cope
4) From the established started up only 6 games 1
5) Antutu showed in 2900 (his wife's phone Jiayu g3 (for 6 thousand rubles) showed 4300 with the same resolution)
6) As the android itself is not very smartly running (XP did)


In general for a long time I was going to buy some sort of deshovenky media player, long time to choose, waiting for new products, and now bought a piece of shit !!!

Dear comrade, even an expensive purchase is sometimes not justified. What do you want from a cheap, Chinese, single-core, with the minimality of RAM ... (the list could go on) for the money it is good performance i7 want from him? This is just the start of that media player, and soon there will be dual-core and more RAM and frequency. I took the android does not slow down, mail, sots.seti, Skype and surfing without any problems, the game is not everything, but go (there's no multitouch), HD movies do not look, I believe that good quality is necessary to look at the cinema, so to speak hold cultural recreation. So it's not a bad device and your requirements are too high. Yours faithfully :-)
