How can I change the default Google DNS if needed. I live in China, and really don't want to be changing settings to get Poison to work properly.

Also, I have a Tanix TX9 Pro 3/32 Android 7.1.2. Am I correct in saying I just have to install TWRP then flash Poison 3/32, no downgrade to 7.1.1?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
inside the build.prop theres 2 properties for it, you can freely change it without affecting poison rom, just for refference, googles DNS is very fast so changing it may make network slightly slower
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
in the main post towards the bottom, theres a downloads part with both the 2/16 and 3/32 versions
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] worraps:
Thanks for the quick reply. Anything Google related is blocked in China, and can only be connected to via a VPN. Hence my query.

I could of course use my VPN, but using a VPN to connect to a Chinese site in China could make it slower. :(
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Ahhh very true, I might make an app to change a few settings

[MENTION=5105831]Ricky Divjakovski[/MENTION] I have MeCool M8S Pro L with 3/32 model and successfully installed Poison Rom. Everything working fine except for the network port doesn't detect. Is it because of the network port driver?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Most driver problems come from the kernel, so simply flashing the stock kernel for your device should fix this
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] dexz:
Cool. Will try to extract stock kernel from stock rom and flash it. Must be from stock rom 7.1.2? Correct me if I'm wrong. Since Poison Rom using 7.1.2 right?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Correct, 3/32 is 7.1.2 and 2/16 is 7.1.1

Both will be 7.1.2 next release and will patch the kernel programmatically to allow init.D and other poison related stuff, making this Rom truly universal

Sir. Don't forget to add my broadcom bcm4xxx wifi and bluetooth drivers. Dolby Atmos should be fine too. Thank you fır your great effort. My google drive folder still in share.

miracast

Hi, is miracast included in this new and nice poison rom?

If not, is there a way that we could install miracast or any other app in order to mirror an android phone?

I am seeking an easy way. I have already tried bubbleUpnp, but it is difficult to use and it stalls.

Thanks
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Will include next build

Recovery stuck on boot screen

Hi,

Used Ricky tool to load recovery from 7.1.2 TWRP - flashed to success, click reboot recovery. Stuck on S912 boot splash

Used Ricky tool to recreate a port of the custom recovery - flashed to success, click reboot recovery. Stuck on S912 boot splash

Used the manual tooth pick method to boot to recovery. Stuck on S912 boot splash

Downloaded Clockwork Mod, and Recovery Boot from Play store - both end up stuck on the S912 spash

I am running a the "stock" build that came on the device. Its a TX9Pro 3/32.

If I can't get it into recovery, I guess I am stuck.

Somehow I must be using the wrong recovery img, but not sure how...the instructions seem quite simple (durh !)

Any help appreciated,

Nick

flash the latest firmware available for your device
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] SpEnTBoY:
Hey guys ... so I was running stock 7.1.1 and decided to first flash the 7.1.1 recovery (I have a 3/32 T95Z Plus) anyway that worked great ... then decided to flash the PoisonV2.0-3_32 rom and when I booted it just sat at the boot image, no animation nothing. Figured maybe something went wonkey on the flash but everything showed successful. Rebooted recovery (pin in the AV hole) and tried flashing again ... no dice. So I went back reading through everything and realized the v2 has 3/32 @ 7.1.2 so I probably needed to read closer and flash the FW upgrade.

Here's my dilema: I only have Linux machines or Virtualbox Windows machines or wine. I've tried to use the USB Flash tool to write the FW but virtual box doesn't see host hardware so I can't see it there and wine is missing components to have the flash work. Is there ANY other way to get my device upgraded to the latest 7.1.2 FW so I can try flashing this rom again? Is it possible for someone to create the sdcard image so I could dd it to a usb drive or is there some crazy magic this application does when it writes out the image that a dd wouldn't properly transpose to an sdcard?

Or even better, is there another wa to get to 7.1.2 fw :D this is the only thing I can think of as to why the rom flash failed

EDIT: wait now I'm confused ... it said it must be at the stock 7.1.1 ... this is what I am/was at and the flash for Poison V2 failed to boot? Am I missing something else?

Any help greatly appreciated
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] dexz:
Are you able to enter recovery? Is it TWRP? If yes. Try format your partition then reflash Poison Rom again. Good luck.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] SpEnTBoY:
dexz, thanks for the suggestion. I am using TWRP for recovery and was able to format data. Tried reflashing and still no luck. I know when I tried to flash the 7.1.2 TWRP recovery I couldn't get it to boot either. It did the same thing just shows the boot logo, no animation etc. When I flashed 7.1.1 TWRP it flashed and booted fine which is why I'm thinking there's something in the FW that needs to update before I can flash the V2 Poison ROM. If that's the case I'm back to needing a sdcard image or a windows machine to use the USB Flash toool :(

Thoughts?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] SpEnTBoY:
Is there possibly a Poison ROM @ 7.1.1 for the 3/32? Maybe I could try flashing that to test?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] knxwille:
Tried before. Doesn't work.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Next version will not matter what version you are running
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
try both versions of the ROM, one should boot

3/32 7.1.1 Poison Rom here

I made it a while ago, some apps may be out of date etc.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] SpEnTBoY:
Ok the 2/16 booted fine but the 3/32 didn't ... not sure why though. I verified that I do in fact have 3GB RAM and 32 GB internal storage :confused:

EDIT:

Oh wait ... 2/16 is 7.1.1 not 7.1.2. I'm guessing that's why it worked
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
will this rom work on an ebox t8 v, id love to change the rom on it, specs are

SoC – Amlogic S912 octa-core ARM Cortex A53 processor @ up to 1.5 GHz with ARM Mali-820MP3

Android 7.1.2

System Memory – 2GB DDR3

Storage – 16GB eMMC flash
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Yep that's right, the fact that it didn't boot has nothing to do with the Rom, it's completely to do with amlogic shotty methods
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Yes it will next release :)

is this ok with my t95zPlus 3/32 version 7.1.1 with build T5ZP1072?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 19800123:
please teach me

Hello, I want to ask you about it. I'm the T95Z 3G32G AP6255 box. I use the firmware of the TX92-20171230. The only difference is that the clock doesn't work. Can you teach me how to restore the clock function? Because I personally think that this firmware compares Easy to use
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Peeyush510:
Flashing stock kernel didn't work

I followed this advice but now my box has gone into boot loop. Had flashed Poison Rom V2 for 2/16G on mecool KM8P box. While the OS loads well and ROM looks great, but it failed to recognize/load both ethernet as well as wifi. Today I followed this suggestion and flashed boot image from stock ROM using TWRP post installing Poison Rom V2. It shows the logo and then system goes blank despite being powered on for more than 5 minutes. I suspect it has entered boot loop. Another complication I am facing is that the motherboard doesn't have hard reset button in order to launch recovery during powering up. Unable to upload photo either courtesy prohibition of XDA for posting external links for new users.

The "update" circuitry on motherboard comes directly beneath the hole that's supposed to be penetrated with toothpick for hard reset at the time of powering up. I suspect it is supposed to short the connectivity between the two end points for hard reset. Any suggestion/guidance? I have twrp backups of stock rom installation and would like to at least get my box booted up in recovery in order to restore it.

TIA.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Is the stock boot.img 7.1.1(for 2/16) or 7.1.2(for 3/32)?

as for restoring, not sure how to go about it, possibly if you know what your doing solder a push button on it
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] draken101:
Hey

Just wondering about this box and 4k content as well as HDR. Is there a way to verify the box can play 4k and do 10-bit colour or are these chineese sales pitch lies. I know the gui is running at FHD as can be verified with cpuz. But I think full screen mode for vlc player and the likes can push the 4k I.E. 3840x2160 resolutions although I am not sure about that either. For 10 bit colour the GPU would need to support it but surly this would need support throughout the information chain from file itself to the player and the gui ect ect.

Does Poison Rom support 10-bit colour I would be surprised if it did or even actually getting 4k cause by default I don't think it is.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Peeyush510:
Stock boot.img is for 7.1.1. Did go through most of your threads and took precaution of not messing between 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. Since the variant I had was for 2/16 and 7.1.1, was able to install your ROM without any fuss either. Only issue I faced was about neither network interface was getting loaded by kernel. Flashing stock 7.1.1 boot.img didn't work out over Poison ROM. I suppose I should have taken cues from you on trying build custom ROM from Stock of KM8P but took the lazy way out.

Will post update here if the shorting works out or if I end up damaging the box in entirety :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] SpEnTBoY:
lol ... ok so to get to 7.1.2 (so hopefully I can keep going with this rom as there's more development on it) I'm assuming I need to find/flash a damn t95z plus stock 7.1.2 FW? However I think this is the reason I need a windows machine?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
It does support 4k, however 10bit color i have no idea, sunvell is quite a trusted source so it wouldnt suprise me

Running the entire OS as 4 lags, but it could just be the system apps not optimized to run 4K
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
try the 3/32,it cannot damage the box

Let me know, would be interesting it you could add your own hard reset button

Ive done some pretty dodgy things with my box to get it operational again after some dodgy bootloader mods, worked out for me
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Ill push a minor update in a few hours so both are 7.1.2

As this ROM is currently the most preferred ROM on earth for S912 boxes ill be updating more frequently

Also if anyone would like to donate towards me getting a new TV(as mine broke somewhat a month ago in a tragic sweeping the floor accident) it would be appreciated, i will also add your name into the new settings tab in the upcoming update :good::good:
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] SpEnTBoY:
I guess the question is, when you update to 7.1.2, will my damn box run it? It seems my box is ok flashing as long as the rom is 7.1.1. I'd like to flash the 7.1.2 TWRP recovery as well but that also would not boot.

EDIT: PS donation sent. Once I get everything running [MENTION=7832271]7.1[/MENTION].2 any chance for a (possibly small) request? I'd like to have an option where the box doesn't sleep. Rather than shut off after 30 minutes of no activity I'd like to have a 'never' if possible.

I have an app I run that every once in a while loses some streaming. My intention is to hack something together to recognize this race condition and restart the app because it stays running but is inactive. I'd like to see if a 'never' timeout set can help me lol
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] markiepeanut:
How do I donate?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] SpEnTBoY:
There's a donate button under his 'Thanks Meter'
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Just got it, Thank you very much, As for your request, go to developer options and tick "Stay Awake", that should do the trick, as per your request, thats a tough one, quite hard to do that but if there were a way to do it, it would be Tasker
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Also everyone please remember, My PoisonKitchen is close to ready, it has 100% support for AMLogic devices and makes building ROM extremely easy(Anyone could do this)

If you would like your own custom rom, ill make a video tutorial on my youtube channel when PoisonKitchen is complete for anyone who wants to make one
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] SpEnTBoY:
I never even thought of looking at the dev options lol. For the app restart I was going to be lazy and install Termux then either write a shell/perl/ or python script. The only challenge doing it like this is getting out of the Termux 'jail'. I'll look into Tasker.

Thanks man
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Hmm i remember seeing python for android(a full system implemention), this may be able to help

If theres anything i can help you with feel free to PM me

Anyone having wifi issues with the rom please PM me for testing a feature im trying to add to V3.0(Either porting stock drivers and adding support within kernel or adding all drivers by default to the kernel)

I still havent had time or a TV to complete the launcher, its mainly complete, i literally just need to add the tiles, wallpaper changing, etc works fine
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] knxwille:
I have. Ricky did you add my bcm4xxxx drivers and bluetooth drivers? They are sb 7.1.2

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
PM me, 2 methods im going to cover
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] cloudsay2002:
Hi, Ricky

Thanks for your amazing work. I'm new and

I need your help to make sure that I didn't

1.

Is Poison ROM for any S912 devices?

even lik：Zoomtak upro, EBox T8 V？

2.

the Installation says "NOTE: if your device is not on android 7.1.1 you must flash stock 7.1.1 with USB burning tool to update the bootloader."

What should I do if the device was not android 7.11?

(Zoomtak upro is android 7.1 and EBox T8 V is android 7.12 )

Ask the company for the 7.11 ROM and flash it. Then flash Poison ROM?

What if they don't provide 7.11 ROM?

3.

NOTE: you must have TWRP recovery installed on your device Instructions here=>[T95Z PLUS] Amlogic customisation thread (Firmwares, Mods, Recoveries, Etc)

Is this for all S912 devices? or just for T95Z PLUS?

4.

I'm trying to decide which TV box to buy. So for I focus on the TV box with S912 CPU, 3/32GB, HDMI 2.0a(not 2.0, 'cause 2.0 won't support 4K HDR) and better have sata interface.

So, H96 pro+, Zoomtak UPro, EBox T8 V were in my list.

Do you have any suggestion? (so I can flash POISON ROM)

THANK You!!!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] volcomguyaz:
ohhhh Ricky??? whats poppin? 7.1.2 2/32 here---get ma vibe? =D

---------- Post added at 10:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 AM ----------

we need to get you help and answers ASAP I'm in the same boat. hope it doesn't turn into one of those MIA situations cause that's only going to make me generate a seek-to-find.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
PoisonRom is for all s912 devices, so yes it will work, flashing the 3/32GB version should you it, otherwise wait a day or 2 for V3

If your device is on 7.1.1 flash to 2/16GB variant, if its on 7.1.2 flash the 3/32GB variant, in reallity it makes no difference,its just AMlogics stupid way of trying to prevent porting

Amlogoic flash tool and recovery porter works for all amlogic devices, its smart, it rips apart your kernel, inserts required strings and data, and repacks it into a working recovery

I have no idea, your best bet would be to ask [MENTION=8898246]whiteak[/MENTION] the guy is a pro when it comes to things like that and has helped me countless amounts of times

I will never go MIA! just a little more crucial testing for V3 and we are ready for a release! in fact, if all testing goes well in the next day or two, we could have a public release within 3 days of V3(One version for all variants and wifi drivers are preserved for the rom avoiding ALL wifi issues), and one more thing, im implementing OTA updates for the rom and the launcher is close to complete(Just working on the tiles now) it allows you to change wallpapers, has a reboot menu so you can reboot into any mode

Testing for me is

VERY slow because my TV is broken

so i only get maybe 30min-1hr testing per day until i can afford a new one(Thanks for everyone whos donated so far), prior me and [MENTION=8898246]whiteak[/MENTION] were smashing out updates on 2-3 week intervals

I am deff just playing around. I got a little too excited earlier when I saw this amazing development. I just softbricked mine (possibly Karma) by editing a buildprop =( there is nooooo rush and I deff look forward to it! I do apologize
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Dont appologise, we are all nice folks around here! be sure to set correct file permissions to build.prop after editing it, otherwise use ES File Explorer to edit it

Cant believe this rom is currently Top dog for Amlogic S912 devices, but still nothing like my Revolutionary S5 for the Galaxy S3(Literally turning an S3 into an S5), but hey, we will get there
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lodk:
Just a quick question if you dont mind.

I was read your instruction about installing "twrp" and how you use "adb", I am not very good with this and wondered about the command "adb push custom-recovery.img /sdcard/"

It looks like the recovery is either coming from or going to a sd card. so i wonder if its coming from would I just insert my own path to the recovery?

my second question has to do with flashing firmware, I have found two ways to go about this

1. use USB burning tool which you suggest for upgrading to 7.1.1

2. sd card maker which seems easier

so I wonder can I use either of them or is it best off I get a male to male usb and just stick with USB burning tool.

thanks for your time and effort in making this ROM cant wait to try it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] volcomguyaz:
I cant believe I did that. I just got this thing yesterday! I intentionally went AROUND ES explorer into my comfort zone of root explorer and did not set the permissions what a rookie mistake! =( I got to enjoy it for half a night. I was after that youtube enabled 4k string - "sys.display-size=3840x2160"

in the buildprop. Of course now it will not boot. It is the very last entry. Do I have any options at this point? I'm new to TV boxes not android and I am overly frustrated. I tried a "burn a card" method with original software but I could not get it to produce out of windows. I can still get in to stock recovery where I see options like ADB side-load install from "Ext" boot loader. I tried just the wipe with no luck. I was reading on various ways i.e. adb to pull\replace and even to edit the file but I do not have that USB A-A cable. What would you do in this situation? I was deff looking forward to your ROM and was planning on purchasing the cable (if that's what we need) Do you have any recommendations on that I hear it called OTG and just a straight USB to USB. Will there be an option to burn IMG to an SD or even download mode? I want to jump on whatever it is I need at this point so I can be ready. If anyone has any ideas on this buildprop edit situation I would appreciate any assistance. My device is;

(leelbox) KingBox K3 s912 16\32

Thanks guys =(
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] volcomguyaz:
*** i seriously cant believe i just unbricked this thing with a makeshift spliced usb cable. Woohooo! I am ready as can be ricky woooop!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Thanks for the feedback, in working on removing stock playstore and adding an updated one.

YES! Next release will have a pre-install folder included aswell as the ability to change wallpaper and have apps installed straight from the sdcard!

For now aroma may not be an option, it lacks the required support for TV boxes.

The reason majority apps are not installed is because alot of people purpose the box for 1 specific reason, some people purpose it for browsing the net while others just see it as a media player

As for the browser icon to work, when clicked it opens firefox(only Firefox support), so simply install Firefox(I know it sucks but thanks AMLogic)

As for Netflix I have already got that fix, in also adding a backend to download the Norweigan version (their Netflix enables you to switch between Netflix us, UK, Norway, etc)

Developer mode will not be enabled but I will enable USB debugging by default
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
By limited data I mean you cannot afford to download this rom multiple times
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
