[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] 2fast78:
Hello everyone,

I recently increased the screen resolution from 360dpi to 420 in order to have more information on my screen.

Unfortunately some statusbar icons like the network speed (H, E, LTE) are very very small now.

Does somebody know how ti increase the size?

Is there maybe a mod/theme available?

Btw: I saw on some Honor screenshots it's possible to seperate the network speed icon from the signal icon.

Is there a tutorial available how to do this?

Best Regards

Edit: I just remarked I posted in the wrong section... sorry! Please move it to the Q&A section please...
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] bjoernwolter:
This is the only annoying thing with my Honor 9. I have tried different themes by using this Themes Manager, but so far i tried no theme should modify the size of the statusbar icons.

Am i wrong?

Hello,

this thread is for our Android TV Box (AMLOGIC S905w, X96mini, Tanix TX3mini).

Here I would like to collect all related firmwares, recoveries, updates, information etc. and discuss with you.

I spent a couple of days working on this box and found out a lot about this box. I searched some addresses on the internet and collected all helpful data.

I hope it will make it easier for some users to deal with the box.

Unfortunately my english is not the best, sorry for this.

Whole important:

I am also not a developer and I have no programming knowledge!

I take no responsibility and guarantee, everyone is responsible for what he does to his own box!

PS: I´m working only on X96 mini 2GB 16GB Version (Only difference is that with Tanix TX3 mini a clock display zip file be installed must)

Best regards

BTW: Many THX to Ricky Divjakovski

Hello everybody,

I decided to finish this thread for myself. Unfortunately, I noticed that many here just want to earn money for support or ask for donations. That was never my intention. If someone wants to spend a coffee, it's okay, but it should not be that you donate money here so you get access to various things or updates. Support here on xda should be free in my opinion.

I will leave everything here in the thread the way it is. It comes from me here, nothing new anymore.

Please no more inquiries about APKs, firmwares, updates, tools etc.

Please ask the developer.

Best regards

Remote on Oreo:

1. Get factory code and scancodes by using Terminal Editor.

- Open Terminal and type: su

- Type in dmesg -c (dmesg = see the log and -c = clean log memory)

- Next click any button on ir remote and type in Terminal Editor again dmesg -c

- You should see the code of your IR remote. For example, Power button: 0xfebf4001

0xfe01 is the custom code and the 40 is the scancode for the power button.

- Now you have to do this for every button of your remote control and note down which scan code belongs to which button.

- After do this we can Edit the "remote2.tab" (Vendor/etc/remote2.tab)

- Here we replace our factory and scan codes, save it and reboot.... Your IR remote should now work!

I attached a picture with my scancodes for my remote control, maybe this will help one or the other.

I believe above are stock firmware.

Is there any custom or debloated firmware for x96 mini?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] arrox:
This link is no longer available

You can have a new download link for TWRP Recovery.

Thanks

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zusatzmetall:
Today I have tested all above firmware on MY!!!!!!! X96 mini !!!!! and yes all firmware runs on my Modell!!!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] RmatriX1218:
Thanks. Great work of compiling all firmware working on X96 mini at one place.

When you say all runs on X96 mini, does it mean remote and wifi also works perfact?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zusatzmetall:
I have not tested all the features of any firmware, but they all ran smoothly, no crashes or reboots.

I remember that one of these firmware 1xUSB connection did not work and another firmware did not work the IR sensor.

The X96 mini has different ports and hardware than the other box and no front display (only LED), no Bluetooth etc.

I can not promise that all firmware works 100%.

Each firmware was made for a particular device with its hardware.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zusatzmetall:
Today I tested Libreelec DUAL BOOT ... Yes it works ... Only the IR remote control does not work. Maybe you can change the remote conf there. I am not an expert.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] RmatriX1218:
Recovery in this thread link is not working for me. It stops at boot X96 mini screen.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zusatzmetall:
You can only run/boot the twrp img from sd Card at the moment.

I havent tested to Copy/install to System.

For me it worked to Boot from sd...

Install the zip File in recovery....

The first file i have uploaded dont work...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] RmatriX1218:
I didn't understand which zip file?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zusatzmetall:
Sorry... Now it is the correct file...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] RmatriX1218:
Thanks. Flashed zip through default recovery and it worked.

Installed Tanix TX3 mini firmware, and it's lot better than X96 mini firmware. Recommended.

Only small issue I faced is, media key (play, pause, next, previous etc) on remote not working on TX3 mini firmware. Else, everything seems working perfect or even better than X96 mini firmware.

Somehow, forgot to back-up remore.conf file from last firmware.

So, one more request. can you place remote.conf file from X96 mini and TX3 mini in first post.

Since you are doing all nice and useful compilation, this will also be quite useful to all users.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zusatzmetall:
Thank you...

I am in Tanix firmware too...

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Br.ita:
Hi guys, I'm also having huge difficulty installing the X96 mini s905w firmware.

I downloaded the correct firmware (s905w) for my tv box.

In my SD the following files were created:

X96 Mini.img

aml_sdc_burn.ini

aml_sdc_burn.UBOOT

And a Folder System Volume Information

If I connect the device with the reset to access the recovery and install withbthe EXT SD file Does not appear, so I can not do anything.

If I start the device with reset pressed and the SD already inserted I get the Android robot with an X.

As I do not have the USB USB cable - this would be my USB installation option.

I'm already thinking of installing that rom Atv ... What do you guys think.

Thank you in advance.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PTHugo:
you got to make the arcade with the sdcard with the burning tool untick the erase bootloader option then follow the flashing method you and use also that ATV rom it's up to you if you want tablet or TV interface

Hey guys, I have X96 mini. I flashed Tanix ROM and it was working great.

Then suddenly, box stopped turning ON.

Indicator light either remains red or blinks blue and red, but box not starting.

I checked adaptor with electrician and it is not faulty.

I tried to put another ROM image through SD card procedure, but light keeps blinking and nothing happened.

Any idea what's going wrong?

Hi everyone

Just ordered the TX 3 mini, great box, installed dualos, smooth and fast.

Libreelec is only for kodi, else not really needed hm?

So stay on Android.

Just googled for that box a s i found nothing about device temperature, what would be fine.

With netflix running and after a while i switch to aidad temperature is 68 degrees celcius, soc temperature, accu it says 42.

well 68 is ten more than globmalls box has.

on globmalls box there is a heatsink on the cpu which here isnt.

and the globmall runs 2ghz, this only 1,2ghz, so it is quite an oven this mini hm?

what temperatures are fine for long time use?

thx
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] mrsoje:
I use this to monitor http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=614386

X96 mini was going 90 C ,now with cooler is at 40 C
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] punkrockfan:
which cooler are you using?

tx 3 mini only comes with pad not with heatsink but a hetasink applied, one for rasp pi, makes no difference

with setcpu clock down to 1ghz max and a temperature profile cpu 667mhz max as soon as passing 55 degrees celcius the box still gets 64 degrees while watching netflix for an hr

additional this cpu toggles a lot, jumps from 59 to 63 and back to 60 in seconds

tx3 mini is an oven, worst box ever in that price range
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] mrsoje:
With this heat sinks and closed cover temp is max at 70 C (while room temp was @ 28C )

With old 12V fan from pentium on 5V on top 40C
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] punkrockfan:
hm, fan on open box now or did you close the box again and put fan upon top with some vent holes modded?)

while tx3 mini even underclocked was 64 degrees celcius last night with same room temp as yours today i took a 12v fan also, put it on some wooden jenga blocks and the box as it is just upon it, closed, no vent holes

netflix running since hrs and since the box is standing on the vent max temp is 52 celcius, think thats ok

12v fan on usb cable and that mod usb fan on the boxes usb port should not brick the port due to wrong specs hm?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] mrsoje:
Fan on closed box with enlarged holes

Fan is very silent

I am having X96 mini and right now on atvXperience ROM. It seems good, but have 2 issues,

1. I am not able to power on my TV box through remote.

2. My amazon prive video doesn't work. Though app opens, download etc everything working, but when I play video, nothing happens.

Any way to solve these?

Apart from above, what is recommended ROM for X96 mini?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] N'ayam Amarsh'e:
1. I have an x96 mini and have no problem with remote and power. It works fine. Send a logcat.

2. Amazon Prime Video needs Widevine L1 which is impossible to get on s905w devices easily. Download the phone version of the app.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] RmatriX1218:
Thanks for quick response...

I am talking about mobile version of amazon prime only. What I click to watch online or downloaded videos, it starts...black screen of processing something...and go back to last screen.

My TV resolution is 1980 and doesn't have CEC, if changing any setting can help....

Probably, I'll provide logcat in couple of days once I am at my home.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] punkrockfan:
no idea about x96 mini but tanix box cannot recommend

however you try to get in contact with devs, so supply

so they can give a fart on their one year warranty for the box

and with these temps it will never make a year i am quite sure

if someone mods the box warranty is void and the additional work/costs is same as just to go with another box that works cool and smooth just from purchase
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] mrsoje:

Hi [MENTION=6822932]PTHugo[/MENTION].

Do you mean to do a reset by the av connector and then on the android backend?

I already did that and it did not work, the same thing is still happening, it's very strange.

Can someone help me or give me some idea (I do not want to throw my x96 mini)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PTHugo:
I don't know what it can be try did you try a custom firmware? Try that nouchers or Axtxpirience I recommend the second one hopefully one of them will help, if you use the burn card maker rename the IMG file to aml_update_package.img it's easier that way

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zeroes_n_ones:
thank you zusatzmetall for starting this thread

zusatzmetall this thread was great

like you i too own several Amlogic S905W boxes (the x96 mini, tanix 3 mini, mecool m8s pro w)

and just like you, i enjoy flashing my boxes in hopes of improving, refining performance but mostly messing around with the box

until its performance is so negatively affected that i simply flash the latest version of the stock rom

you have my utmost esteem collating 10 different roms made by different competing manufacturers for their S905W boxes, all the tools, guides and organized them in one handy thread.

thank you zusatzmetall

i remember reading your list of roms, a few i've tried and dont recommend flashing on a x96 mini especially the W95

then you listed Mecool M8S Pro W which I also own, used extensively and I scoffed at the idea. :silly:

I thought to myself there is NO WAY that could work! :silly:

I assumed both boxes made by competitors with different components :silly:

Besides components the circuit boards were completely different :silly:

Then I flashed the M8S Pro W in the x96 mini, not the ATV voice controlled rom but the first rom when the box shipped.

It ran flawlessly :D :good:

Then I flashed the ATV rom which worked even better, eventually deciding Magendanz's Nexus ATV rom superior to X96 mini's sufficient stock rom.

Update I flashed ATX Xperience on my x96 mini but didnt like how it performed compared to Magendaz's Nexus ATV rom

That us until I tried out Poison ROM meant to be flashed on a Tanix 3 box, the performance is noticablely snappier and only time will tell which rom I'll settle flashing on my three X96 mini boxes, 2 Tanix 3 and 3 Mecool M8S Pro W.

so again thanks for this thread and may i add two more roms worthy of mention

1) Magendanz's Mecool M8S PRO W TVStock Nexus ROM Android TV 7.1

This is the best M8S Pro W ROM bar none, very easy to confuse with the nano nexus rom you linked but worlds apart in performance when flashed onto X96 mini

2) Poison Rom S905w by ricky divjakovski

your thread has been a handy source and your efforts are appreciated zusatzmetall :D
