I have a Tronsmart Quadcore Android TV stick.

I can be in Amsterdam within 15 minutes.

Just need to install that damn thing on the stick I think.

Here is my small tutorial:

OK, here we go. Small tutorial on running NRS in Android TV stick.

Tested on Android TV stick, running 4.2.2, RK3006 Rockchip, internal sdcard.

1. Stick has to be rooted.

2. install Complete Linux Installer from app store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zpwebsites.linuxonandroid

3. Go through all steps as it on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b17Bfza1X3A. I used small 13.10 image, because I installed it in internal sdcard. Extracted it takes 2GB. Important: use ext2.zip files if your android is less than 4.3 and you download them manually from http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxonandroid/files/Ubuntu/13.10/

4. If you did everything as instructed, you should see Ubuntu running on your device. Install java in ubuntu. Important: install oracle java

5. Now copy Your next folder to your desktop folder in ubuntu

6. goto to nxt folder, open terminal window in this folder, type java -jar start.jar sh run.sh and here we go!!!

7. Now you can use chrome browser in android TV stick (no need is to have one in ubuntu) and check everything is working.

Didn't try on other android devices, but I think it should work on any android device.

Ask if you will stuck at some moment (i stuck 10 times in 3 days Smiley), I'll try to help.

Try to run everything in your stick, interesting to have second stick running NRS

EDIT: red changes to client 0.8.x

I'm gonna try it.

It's enough to be at simple user level at Android and Ubuntu (as I am), but you have to be familiar with it a little bit deeper . Good luck and post how do you succeed.

I'm going to give it a try, 15 hours over the course of the conference will be acheivable. And it'll be useful for NXT to have people on the inside, so to speak.
Lets spread this to all Dutch/Belgian NXTers.....

I'm thinking; me, Damelon, Fatih, mikesbmw for a start. I'll PM them now....

I don´t have the knowledge to talk about Nxt to a broader audience, but am capable of smalltalking and networking.

Edit: anyway, I will ask them if it wold be possible to get a slot somewhere

I was planning to kick my search for promo material for the A'dam conference into high gear over the next week, it would be a very good idea if we could pool our resources/co-ordinate promo stuff with the Vienna conference. For example, the RaspPiSolar (if i ever find someone to build it) from A'dam could be shipped immediately to Vienna for use there.

Lets stay in touch on this.....

Hey gang,

I am leaning towards NOT going to Bitcoin Expo in Toronto on April 11-13.

The conference seems VERY Bitcoin-centric (read: not alt-friendly) and I'm not sure how effective I can be there.  It would be just as easy to target key stakeholders in other ways (email/Skype/etc), and that is far cheaper than the $2000 USD (~70,000 Nxt) needed to get me there.

Any strong opinions to the contrary?

wasn't here yet

Toronto

Platinum sponsor: Ethereum... rofl (they paid $35,000) - they have 8 tickets for the crew

well, we don't have to be everywhere, especially when 50 percent of attendants will be attending also other events. Some of these speakers were in Berlin, some will be in SF and Amsterdam...

NXT

The first cryptocurrency to use a 100% Proof of Stake model, at the launch of the NXT project 100% of the cryptocurrency was distributed proportionally to financial backers’ initial investment. In NXT, blocks are created through a process known as “transparent forging” whereby every node in the network can determine which node will mine the next block, allowing for “VISA/ Mastercard rates of transactions.” Forging new blocks spreads transaction fees among all of the participants in the network who have set aside NXT for mining.
