Thanks for this!

Spent the past few days reading up on all the relevant threads.

I have the T95Z+ 2/16gb version which was running on Android 6.0. And my OTA updater was not working.

I ordered a USB 3.0 gold plated male to male cable off amazon as well as a 16gb SD card.

I used the USB burner tool on my Windows 10 laptop. The drivers installed fine. I then plugged the cable into laptop first, then held down the reset button with a toothpick while I plugged the usb cable in.

Windows installed the drivers correctly. But the burner tool did it not pick it up. I unplugged the usb cable from device. And then plugged it back in while holding reset. It then said connected in the burner tool. I let go of the reset button.

I then flashed the stock 7.1.2 rom with TWRP built in from the first post of this thread. Flashed perfectly.

I then booted up the device and let it get up and running.

I then copied the Poisen rom onto the SD card. Plugged it into the device and then booted into TWRP.

I had to plug in a USB mouse to use TWRP to “swipe right”. I wiped and then flashed Poisen.

My device is now super fast and doesn’t crash or lag any more!! This is amazing for an Android TV box! So happy!

This issue is fixed by installing Chrome. You can find the latest release on apkmirror. Once installed, you can log in to your google account from browser and Goofle Play Store will not crash, allowing you to complete setup

This issue occurs due to faulty/missing webview
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
The issue is already fixed, the Playstore does not crash in the Poison Rom? Webview is not missing at all? My suggestion is to update webview from apkmirror, chrome has nothing to do with the Play Store crashing on "Stock Firmware". I have tried adding the newer version of webview to be included in the Rom, but that causes a crash, but updating is fine. The only time where it might appear the Play Store will " crash" is sometimes on first time opening it does a Version Check of Play Services, but that's it on the Poison Rom. If anyone else has issues with the Play Store "crashing" please let me know, but It doesn't on my device.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Haadkoe:
Instead of going straight to the play store, go settings, accounts, then add your account in there. That's how I worked it out when the same happened to me anyway.

what remote do you use in twrp? my remote control seems not working with twrp. tia
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
You need to use a Mouse.

Air remotes work too
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
i use one of these, excellent available everywhere more or less

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Gabsthejerk:
I had this issue when i flashed my box with v4.3 shortly after you released it, and installing Chrome from apkmirror solved the playstore crashes. In v3.0 and v3.2 just by selecting the option to process webview pages separately solved the same issue. I haven't updated or re-flashed the box since the release of v4.3 so if this was solved in the meantime i wouldn't know.

Cheers

pls help anyone..i have my bnew sunvell t95z 3/32 that comes with firmware version T5ZPE1081..i managed to install twrp thru amlogic tools. installed poison 4.3 after boot logo black screen then the "no signal" appeared on the tv. clock on the box hang. waited for 5-8 mins nothing happend. tried to burn firmware 7.1.2 with twrp from the OP but got the error. what can i do? sorry for bad english..

thanks everone
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inray:
Try pc back USB port.

I never see 1081 version 7.1.2 stock rom.

Maybe it's newest rom.

Find ur v.1081 7.1.2 stock rom & use burning tool to flash it back to stock rom.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
thanks mate..it is now dead..i read from a thread in freaktab that what he did was unchecked erase bootloader. i did it to burn 7.1.2_twrp then successfully burn but not booting..now my box can't be detected :crying:

what can I do.. I still have the copy of my backup from twrp which is the stock original firmware v1081. can I make a boot SD from it? how? tia
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inray:
Just use USB Burning tool to flash ur stock rom v1081, then it will be alive again. Stock rom, not ur TWRP backup. I've unbricked my t95z plus even without any LED front signal at all. But burning tool usually accepts the stock rom. U just need to find out ur v1081 Android 7.1.2 stock rom & flash it with pc back USB port. Don't forget to press AV port reset button before u flash it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
tnx for the help mate but no luck using burning tool. my crappy laptop can't recognize the box anymore. I'm trying to burn this image https://xdaforums.com/android-stick...zplus3gb-32ggoogleremoteatv1081-6255-t3817960 in sd card maker.. wish me luck..
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] simonjonnemeth:
If the reset button is not pressed, it will definitely not be detected by your PC. Are you definitely feeling for the click of the reset button since it is so easy to slip past it if you aren't using the right object to press it? Also, for me I found it worked better if I kept the button held throughout the whole process since there is a reset on mine at the start of the the process which causes it attempt a normal boot if the reset button isn't held.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
this worked for me with my original firmware, https://chinagadgetsreviews.com/download-amlogic-burn_card_maker-v2-0-2.html
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
thanks mate.. I'll give it a shot since the one from amlogic tools keeps on not responding..

USB Burning tool & SD CARD MAKER all need press reset button in AV output hole when u flash ur device. There is a YouTube film about flashing lesson in this thread.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
got you thanks.. but my last resort is the pin method..pressing the reset button not working in both method.. not detected.. but now I did the pin method in usb burning tool it connects.. but unfortunately same error during flashing..
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
i originally put the firmware image in a 32gb sd card, not a usb mem stick, did nont work, then i used a 16gb sd card, it worked plus i formatted the sd card fat32 with rufus then transferred the image to card, powered off box, held in the pin, powered up box then it started to flash., not all boxes are created equal i may add, after that i put twrp recovery on the sd powered off again pin in, power up, twrp will or should show up, then flash twrp to the box.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inray:
Several reasons cause flashing error :

1. bad USB cable quality

2. unstable USB power supply

3. the stock rom is not for ur device

Many Chinese factories produce a lot of T95Z PLUS branch. Their roms have a little difference. Maybe u think the v1081 rom is ur stock rom, but it may be the wrong rom. I tried over 10 roms when I bricked my device. Finally I got the right one and unbricked it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
thanks for the help guys.. the reset button method is not working anymore that is why I do the shorting pin method+usb+power supply.. but 2 firmwares I tried same error..I tried the modified stock rom from op and the Googleremote 1081..but same error still..I think its not related to my usb cable cause I successfully flashed the rom from the op but didn't boot because I unchecked the "erase bootloader"
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
You probably have a box with LP Ram, try flashing this Stock 1076 Firmware for devices with LP Ram. http://www.mediafire.com/file/u931juyh4bc610o/T95ZPLUS-3G-LP-MG-v1076.rar

Also, are you sure you have a 3gb box, try flashing a 2gb Firmware if you have no luck with above firmware, wouldn't be the first time someone thought they were buying a 3gb device and got sent only a 2gb device.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
Tnx mate.. I'll try those roms you said. how can I be sure I got the 3gb?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Looks like you do have the 3/32 device there mate. But one thing I noticed is, it says T95T on the sticker and not T95Z, says T95Z on the board, obviously it is a very new device to have 1081 Firmware from the Factory, so not really sure what to make of it really.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inray:
The chip near S912 chip is a remarked chip. It seems a downgraded chip from SK(not sure).
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
yay.. got it booted by the LP rom mate! tnx much to you! I but my wifi keeps on connecting screen after entering the password.. seem like driver issue.. how can I install twrp now? I managed to install last time by using wireless flash on amlogic tools.. tnx

edit: wiped from stock recovery then wifi good..

trying to see if this will go up to v1081..

no luck.. v1077 only

update:

thanks for all your help guys! especially to the devs of this amazing rom! I am finally poisonized!! burn LP ram rom then flash 4.3 on top! boom..
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
glad to hear your all sorted
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jailedmike:
So I finally got the USB to USB cord now, before I start to change my device it is limited to 1.5 ghz. Is that problem with 1076? Or do I somehow have a worse t95zplus from sunveil?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
Got another problem. my wifi connection keeps on dropping..
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
did it do this with original firmware, are you using a different router, can you not connect with a lan cable instead

cable is cheap to buy these days plug straight in router, less lag and buffering.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
stock v1081 not dropping connections.. same router..
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
last resort flash poison again without a wipe straight over the top, reboot let it finalise, then reboot check connection again, you could also turn off router for five minutes then reboot.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
I am so confused by your device, I'll explain why: First off your box come with V1081 from the Factory. The only V1081 Stock Firmware that I have seen and also received from Manufacturers was for T95Z devices that have normal Ram and not the LP Ram. It appears you have the LP Ram from your errors with the USB Burning Tool and the fact that you were able to Flash a 1076 LP Ram Firmware. So what does this tell me, that the Manufacturers have lied or withheld other Versions of 1081, obviously this is the case as your box proves it.

Regardless of all that, from the photos you provided of your board, I cannot make out what wifi chip you have as I can not read it, your photos are clear enough, so I'm presuming the chip must look like that in real life? But you could try and flash my Infected Rom which I based of the Stock 1081 Firmware, but from a previous test before, someone was not able to flash it as they had LP Ram, they were able to Flash the 1076 LP Ram Firmware but would get the error when trying to Flash either the Stock 1081 or my Modified 1081 Infected Rom, here is where it gets to the point that I don't understand, you have successfully flashed the 1076 LP Ram Firmware, so I would then presume that you have one of the newer devices that are now using LP Ram, but you have also said that Stock 1081 is not dropping the wifi, was this only on the Firmware that came with the box before you flashed over it, or are you able to Flash the Stock 1081 now as well? Anyway, if you want, try and flash my Infected Rom, it may work for you, my thread is here: https://xdaforums.com/android-stick--console-computers/amlogic/t95z-infected-rom-t3819611
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inray:
He said he flash 1076 LPLProm, but got wifi connection issue, but he restored the backup from v1081. So his wifi came alive again.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Best bet is he purchased a fake device
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] s2pfie:
Thanks mate!

I already emailed sunvell to provide my stock v1081(came with the box) firmware but the agent asked me where did I get my box, am I a wholesale and where did I get my firmware.. sounds funny even the company is wondering where the firmware came from haha..

I already tried flashing infected rom on top of my v1081 stock fw but got same error with 4.3..only flashing v1076LP RAM before any custom rom did work but wifi drops.. currently I updated from 1076-->1077 then flash 4.3..still in the process of observing the wifi behavior..

edit:

looks like I'm getting the same issue.. setting-network-wifi-entered password-saved only not obtaining an ip..

tried Droid settings-more setting-wifi off/on-forgot network-re entered password-obtaining ip address..connected

.. observing..

wifi still dropping :?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inray:
I found if u put a 2~3 cm thick plastic box below the device, the remote controller would be more like RF or Bluetooth remote, easy to use in my small room. I saw the wifi antenna right in the bottom of the device.

Hey guys, I posted this some days ago and since I have not yet seen anything about it I am taking the liberty to once gain post it here. Thanks in advance for your kind attention! :good::fingers-crossed:
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
im assuming you gave all the correct permissions to launcher when you replaced the original, did you use copy paste over the top? of original launcher, did you use root explorer or es file explorer, did you change permissions once you replaced original. i had to use root explorer get it to finally work, then changed permissions back to rwx r-r.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ajape:
Thank you for your response! :o In my case the Launcher was extracted and published in another Beelink forum only as a complete APK, so I installed it normally like that same as Nova, which btw cannot be saved as the default launcher choice either, on every boot it always reverts to the default ROM launcher.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
then i suggest, with root explorer go into system/app make a backup of the original launcher and put in on a sd card, then take you other modded launcher and put in inside the system/app draw where your original on was, delete the original and replace with yours, you have to have permissions set before you can delete though, and you have to set permissions on your new launcher as well, read the link below and use twrp first to make a backup obviously.

i had similar problem with altered launcher rebooted to pinkish screen no launcher, another time it kept reverting back like yours, permissions is the key, great rom although i cannot use original remote and box front says boot, where it should show clock.

I ever installed nova launcher in stock rom and set it to the default launcher. Everytime it boots to default one, but it seems a bug. U just need to press task & home tab, it will back to the launcher u installed.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ajape:
Thank you for the replies guys, I'm going to try to replace the original launcher in the system/app folder and change its permissions so it can load automatically, but Zerocumulus's suggestion actually works really well!!! All I needed to do was click on the home button in the nav bar and the launcher would change to my preferred one, which is soooo much easier and faster! :laugh: Thanks guys! :D
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
i was presuming you wanted your launcher to be default and no other hanging in the background, in that case you can have as many launchers as you want, me i prefer a clean uncluttered..and nothing running in the background launcher, their are apps on google play that let you choose launchers as many as you like, i prefer 0 clutter no app mem hogs that sit in the background, and because they are badly coded...crash..sit there. and ruin the system, that should be flawless. but hey thats me and my preference.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ajape:
I feel the same, but mostly because of the memory usage. Plus it's just plain inefficient to keep things occupying RAM space that you will not be using ever, so that's why I'm working on setting it up as the ONLY launcher in the system even as we speak, hehehe :D

---------- Post added at 02:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------

EDIT: Well, it would be more accurate to say I'm TRYING to start working on it actually, since I haven't been able to find the Lighthome anywhere! lol I did find the SunvellWin8Launcher folder in System/App, but the current location of Lighthome, or Nova also for that matter is still a mystery, hehehe :D:fingers-crossed:
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ajape:
2ND EDIT: Found it where it actually was all the time at, Data/Apps of course, but under a very exotic name lol. Anyways, found it, copied it, but now it's another whole other set of problems with changing the permissions, still working on resolving it...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Can u send me this launcher apk so I can take a look at it? I have beelink gt1. Thank you.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ajape:
Certainly! Here's the link for it:

Beelink Lighthome APK

If you press the menu button (the one with three stacked horizontal bars in your remote control) in the Home screen, you can choose between 4 different background wallpapers, but lamentably I have yet to find how to change any of them. But at leat I really like the blue one, hehehe Anyways, enjoy! ;):good:
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
open the apk with 7zip and go to Lighthome.apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi-v4\

I'm gonna take a look at the launcher later today. Thanks so much.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ajape:
Oh, the humanity... You've NO idea what you just did to me, hehehe :D lol I have spent so many hours trying to learn what I needed to be able to change this... I had to look up and learn how to recompile, zipalign, and sign an apk after installing the Java SDK and about 20 other command line and weird GUI little apps, since just replacing the files failed miserably of course, and in the end when I finally did it... Android security tells me it can't install because there is a conflicting filename app already existing even after I unistalled it like 10 times... lol that one was the final killer for me that I just couldn't overcome, after trying then with APK Manager, APK cloner, APK everything and I still couldn't get Android to budge, so it was all to no avail in the end after all.

But wait... that's not even the worst part. The worst part is, if you change to Nova, apply whatever wallpaper you want and then return to Lighthome, whatever wallpaper you chose in Mova keeps being the one that Lighthome shows!!! Arrrrrgh! It was my 16 y/o who came oh so nonchalantly into the room, a can of Dr. Pepper in one hand and cool as a cucumber, and when I explained (shouted in my frustration would be a more accurate description) to him all about my suffering misery at what I was failing so utterly at achieving, he just gave me a half-turn look and innocently said: "Well, you did try just using Nova to set the wallpapers you want before all this disaster happened, right? I mean, sorry, of course, no way you wouldn't have done that. Oh well, let me know how it goes, I'll be in my room." And just like that he left... not even noticing my completely gobsmacked expression. Yes, I should have really though of that most logical of solutions way, way before I could even think about trying to do all that I did, but... DAMNIT!

Rofl I do thank you sincerely though, all jokes aside, I learned so much I wouldn't have otherwise and if nothing else, I will at least be able to understand much more about all that is talked about in XDA on any given day, so Thanks! hehehe ;):D

You're very welcome, and learn from the mistakes of others: If you want to use different wallpapers, just use Nova to do so and be done with it, hehehe ;):D

And don't be jealous about my being in Santo Domingo, right now it's 91F here with 75% humidity and to top it all off there's a storm coming later today so it will get even more damp while staying just as hot, so it's no picnic being here today at all, hehehe
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
you must remember one think if you want to mod apk's

if you want to replace images only, open apk as archive, and replace,

System apk's (the ones that you are copy from the box) - they don't need to be signed , on PC i use BatchApkTool , and there is a option "89 Sign output APKs: NO"

on Android with APKEditor Pro, Settings - check the Rebuild Confirmation, after pressing BUILD untick the Sign the APK.

and using Lucky Patcher is good too, for patching the apk for modding, no license verification etc.

P.S.: when i started to mod apk's i've done the same mistake as you, lol, signing the apk, replacing META-INF folder etc :D

Having issues with my t95z plus 3gb/32gb.

When using Kodi, or another streaming app, it crashes and causes the ROM to reboot after 10 minutes or so. Happened with stock, and happening with this ROM.

When doing any non-video stuff the box works perfectly

Any advice?
