I'm def interested in the Android TV apps you have working. I've tried to install a few Android tv apps and they fail to install.

However the olaystore was fixed with the latest firmware update. But I like the Android tv Netflix better as it's easier to navigate without an air mouse. Any tips you have I'd be more than grateful.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have no trouble installing android tv apps I use the SPMC Kodi Launcher and run the apps Through kodi and get the android tv apps like youtube through aptoid Tv

http://m.aptoide.com/installer-aptoide-tv

Im working on the netflix and pluto tv android tv apps to work they wont load without being modified I did get my logitech webcam to work for skype pic and sound and if sound works on that then why wont google search not says cant find Mic in fact this is the same issue on every android 5.0,5.1 device i have had and i had 6 differnt ones but no problems if them run kitkat 4,2 or 4.4 anyone any ideas maybe soundabout app but that didnt work either has anyone gotten any china tv box with android 5.0 to work with a mic AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Davinci50:
I can't get hbo now to work.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] omair2005:
same here. it tries to play vidoe but then just exits out the app. same with directv app..
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] codygs83:
Haha yeah Netflix will open with an error -13 and you can see the app in the background but it just won't let me use it. Also my mic doesn't work either and I have no clue what needs to be fixed....
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] warlordxxx:
Codygs can you have a look and see if there is a cutom keymap xml at Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/ - I deleted the original kodi due to the urlresolver not updating - That now works but my air mouse no longer does (press and hold ok and move the air mouse) click and drag on the lists of files. Thanks
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] codygs83:
I'll check when I get home man. I don't think there is though. But I'll double check.

Edit: that could also be a problem with the firmware. I noticed my air mouse on the remote that comes with it works when it wants to, not all the time. I have this one..

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00K...=air+mouse&dpPl=1&dpID=51ei5V7rdWL&ref=plSrch

And it works flawlessly. Absolutely love it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] warlordxxx:
Thanks bud - There has to be something built into their version of Kodi that i'm missing because before I added the one from the market the air mouse would click and drag to scroll lists. After the fresh install it doesn't do it but still does it on other programs so it's only missing from kodi. Kodi's functions would allow it to be used with a mouse and keyboard so i checked the version i have on my laptop and that won't click and drag to scroll either. Keymap was the only way i could think of them intergrating this into the version of Kodi that comes preinstalled.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] codygs83:
Did you update kodi to the 17.0 alpha?

I did last week and lost the enter function on the remote. I rolled back to 16.1 and everything works perfectly again.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] faheyd:
Got this one in the mail yesterday from amazon. It had the latest 'may 2016' software release. It did not like to do kodi updates via wifi, but worked fine on ethernet. This thing sucked a lot of hours out of me trying to get things working. At least I was able to shut off the leds. I have 60Mbs at the house and streaming worked great when there were sources available. If your firmware does not work, it may be you have the latest already. Look at what firmware version you're updating compared to what you have on the fail page you see. I must have 20 billion plugins in kodi that do the SAME exact thing. I'll have to start uninstalling the plugins that I don't like or are redundant. I put in a mouse dongle and that sure as hell helped on the setup. You have to input so much stuff getting this up and running, you really need at least a mouse, and maybe a keyboard. Make sure you've got your HDMI cable inserted all the way in, as there's a final 1/4 inch to go on the back. This box works, but sure does take a lot to get customized to your liking. Noobs may throw it out the window if they are not familiar with android. I paid $70 for this, and I think they should pay me $70 for all the time it took out of my day, and I'm still not finished.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] codygs83:
I believe 6-10-16 is the latest update. I tried the ota and it downloaded but failed to install in recovery giving me an error.

I use top tv launcher and mines looking much better and is much easier to use now. However it does take some setup and noobs will def get discouraged.

I also have a custom kodi build available on community portal if your interested in kodi.

http://www.noobsandnerds.com/communitybuilds/show/325
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] warlordxxx:
Nope the 16.1 Everything works as does the air mouse but i'm only unable to click and hold the OK button on my air mouse and scroll by moving up/down something which i could do beforehand. I know it's only a little thing but it's something that I got used to doing and miss
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] codygs83:
I hear you. I'll check mine out when I get home from work and get back to you. If I have a keymap.xml I'll post it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] codygs83:
Nothing there man....
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] warlordxxx:
Well that sucks but thanks for checking it out for me
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] faheyd:
Hi Cody, I was finally able to get the firmware updated, after I remembered that the zip a few pages back was a zip of a zip. Once I extracted the firmware zip, the recovery page was able to update it. There is also a recovery img file, I wonder if that can be done with flashify or some other method. In any case, from there I uninstalled the supplied Kodi and updated via googleplay to I think 16.1 . I watched your youtube video several times and step by step got the plugin installed. However, it did not work, got errors. So, I just found another youtube video to install fusion and that for the most part works. Must better than the mess that was supplied with it. Thank you for your help. I'm good to go at this point.

---------- Post added at 10:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 AM ----------

For noobs like me: This is a packaged zip file. Use your desktop unzip program or ES File Manager in android, to unzip it . WIthin is the actual firmware zip file that the android system will use to update the firmware. Do not unzip the firmware zip, just use the built in android app to update. After update, you'll see that your build number is updated.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] codygs83:
Excellent. I'm glad I could help [emoji106]

If you have any issues like you said getting errors I can walk you through installing my kodi build or any build using community portal. As long as you create a login at their website there's a lot of really good builds on there.

Just message me if you need any help. I could also make another video if need be [emoji41]

Also it may say you need a GUI file. For Android that file is not required. Hit OK and your build will download and install.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Quiyaro:
Hi guys,

I've also received my Qbox and am very happy with it.

One noob question though: does the BBC player only work if you're in the UK?

Because I'm not, and the app is not working...

Thanks!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kladde:
Is there ota updates?

Who is the manufacturer and their homepage?

Can you turn of led?

Skickat från min EVA-L09 via Tapatalk
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Quiyaro:
Hello.

OTA updates are there, though the download (around 650 Mo) is quite slow.

Manufacturer is Sunvell, but afaict, the product is not on their site.

The LED can be switched to other colours or turned off thanks to a button on the remote.

:)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] croppers:
I'm after some advice, I own two of these Q boxes 2/16gb version, both appear to have the lateste 160610 firmware installed i assume from factory, however, the second box i bought seems to be a bit sluggish, also the led light will not change colour by using the remote, and there is a big problem with display output in that it randomly switches the gamma so the screen looks like its gone infrared this happens on all HDMI settings. I've started to think theres a defective chip but before I attempt to get a replacement I wondered if anyone of you had any of these issues when on earlier firmware, just incase its a case of although its states its the new one is installed it may actaully not be be fully updated or somthing weird like that.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] theslydog:
You need to be in the UK to use BBC iPlayer or use a VPN or even better use a smart DNS. Try something like SmartDNSProxy or Getflix as they are both good.

I think they both have a free week trial - set up your router set UK for iPlayer and you are good to go.

Now a question for someone who has a Q-Box.

Can someone please DL the RTVE.es tablet app and tell me if it installs and plays. Thanks.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Gombiee:
Hi there everyone!

I recently purchased one of this box and could not figure out how to enable or use screen mirroring, if it is possible. I would like to stream my phone's screen to TV through Q-Box.

Any suggestion would help.

Hello,

I just received my Q BOX with the last firmware.

I am using the YOUTUBE application (last version 11.29.55) from the play store.

Unfortunately the quality of video are limited to 360p without any possibility to change that in the settings.

It's working well with the Youtube android TV application pre-installed but I prefer the user interface of the Android one.

What to do in order to obtain full quality of video ?

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ----------

Hello,

I am using the ZATTOO application from the play store.

Unfortunately when I want to watch any channel, un have a black screen but the sound of the channel is OK.

It' s working on my TV if I send it to my chromecast.

Thanks for feedback
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] faheyd:
I use this firmware/rom and it's a fix for all the proglems on this box: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...bk/583567-rom-qbox-2gb-16gb-superceleron-v1-0

You must have a usb male to usb male connector to do it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Dart20:
Thanks faheyd, i installed celeron Rom with success and that solved my issues.

À very good Rom !

Nevertheless each time inside any application i exit with the home button, the application shut down.

If I use the button switch application, the application stay alive.

It' s usefull if I want to continue to ear radio station or use my VPN application.

How to avoid that at least for some applications.

Thanks for feedback.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] faheyd:
I don't know, you may have to ask on the thread where you got the rom also, you may get lucky here. I know it's kind of hard to maneuver around like on a phone. There seem to be menus on the left side most of the time. I use a wireless mouse/usb adapter to get around. I was one of the unfortunate ones that most of the buttons on the remote do not work with that rom. Keep exploring, you'll find a way.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] gee-flex:
I have a question for anyone with the right answer I am having a problem with finding my USB in any of the menus that pop up so I have not been able to use my external hard drive at all does anyone know how to find it please
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] KenzoHusky:
Just use ES file explorer, also if You have qbox 2gb/16gb will highly recommend to flash Superceleron rom.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] catnipthieves:
I bought one of these boxes this week, and noticed that it seems to take a lifetime to boot up. The Q logo appears, disappears, then after five minutes or so, the start-up animation begins before it restarts yet again. Eventually, after around ten minutes, it will announce that 'Android is starting' and proceed to optimise the handful of apps on it. It does this EVERY time I power it up, it seems - faulty box, or normal behaviour? I had suspected the AC adapter supplied with it isn't up to the task...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] nik1975:
I would like to ask,is there any way to change the default start home theme?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] tehbuddy:
I say no because that is the original launcher for the box. What you can do is install a different home launcher app from the PlayStore.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] nik1975:
Thank you,i ll try.Did you have something to propose,i would like something to show the weather as well
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] nik1975:
How can i see weather on homescreen?Mine doesnt show,do i need to install something?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] tehbuddy:
I tried nova launcher and it works great. The only thing is you can not turn off the LED light in the nova launcher.

I only seen that weather come up once on my box never again. You can get the weather channel app and turn on notification so you can see the temp in the upper left corner.

Hello.

Please. Does Anybody know how to fix this issue with the playstore? It stops working after its autoupdate. And it ask to uninstall updates to make it work againg.

The fact is that you can not stop the playstore from autoupdate itself. So the problem is endless.

Help needed.

Hi. Has anyone managed to get Kodi's built in Refresh Rate switching working. My settings in Kodi are set to automatically switch depending on the video but it's not switching to 24p when I load HD content. It's constantly set to whatever the Android setting is at in the Display settings. Which is set to "Automatic", but again seems to be fixed to 60hz.

This is very frustrating as the motion judder is driving me mad.

The only reason i ask is because i have ordered the box and would like to start development on a custom rom for it aswell as a custom recovery.

Thanks

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] naimaisnice:
lol ok. Ive been looking around for two goddamn weeks and the general conclusion is that it's essentially impossible to get it to run on an Android TV. only solution would be to cast from a laptop or to buy the $999 Asus chromebox for meetings... Which I'm pretty sure we're gonna have to do coz we can't use anything other than Hangouts for videoconferencing right now.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pyraxiate:
This looks nice. I just ordered a very similar box and will likely look at putting this version of Kodi on it. I stumbled on this thread looking at similar s905 boxes just to see what was out there. I have the Docooler M9s Pro on order ( s905 / 2gb / 16gb ) and while ive been an android radio fan it seemed most newer boxes dont use the rockchip processors which have a ton more development support.

How stuck are we when it comes to upgrading android? Is it much like the android radio base where you just come to realize youre stuck with what comes with them? Most manufactures offer zero updating there either. Luckily though we have a few devs there pumping out updates for us thanks to the rk3188 having some support on other head units.

Anyway, things look promising here performance wise. I ditched my Fiber TV as we hardly watch anything anymore live. My main plan was to use Kodi and stream what channels i could. Im sure this thing will do the job. Im just new to Kodi so ive got a lot of learning to do as far as what addons i want to use. I installed it on my s7Edge to tinker with before i get the box. Theres just so much to look at add on wise.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] andrewilley:
A couple of quick questions for anyone who has one of these QBOX S905-based media players:

1) Is there a custom recovery available for either the S905 (2GB/16GB) or S905X (2GB/8GB) versions of this box (not purchased yet so could get either)? TWRP ideally, I just want something that will support a full Nandroid backup basically. Or can I do a full backup directly from my PC with ADB?

2) Can the edge-light be completely disabled in software (especially if I'm running LibreELEC rather than the supplied Android) or will it be a job for a strip of black insulating tape and/or snipping the legs off the LEDs.
