V4 rom problems

Installed V4.1 --

Preinstalled apps did not install (No kodi, no Youtube)

Does not allow me to intall APKs - Play store does work and can install apps from there.

Nav Bar disappears once minimized and not able to bring back up.

giving around 28-32% free memory.

I used this app to customize the nav bar so it doesn't disappear. I installed 4.1, working great, just need a few more tweaks here and there

Wish though even though I installed the nova launcher, I really hate it when the default launcher has to override it at certain times. Please ricky, disable this function. It doesn't need to hook into the system.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
Have 4.1 installed and after 1 day use i have to say: Great ROM!!!

Runs super-smooth, wifi/ethernet bug-free, BT works also inhere, Google Play no issues/errors/FC's anymore (altough Google Play Services seems a little outdated.

Sure we will find some minor things to improve, otherwise we won't have all this fun, but overall for me it's a 200% improvement comparing to Stock ROM and even a big step up from 3.5 Poison ;)

Thanks [MENTION=244033]ricky[/MENTION] for all your time and effort so far!!!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kyoshihub:
ok I was playing around with this tool. It seems putting the extracted folder on the desktop will not work, it will give the error as shown in the picture above. So I put the folder into the C:/, still crashes HOWEVER, when I used the fix here https://github.com/Ricky310711/ADB-Fastboot-Tools extracted into the same folder in, it now connects. So if anyone has this proble, this is the solution.

For those that want to see a screen with nova launcher
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Haadkoe:
Just installed the latest. So far so good, though I did have to login to my google account through the add account function in settings. Trying to login via the play store wasn't happening as it would bounce me back to desktop before I could even type my username and pw.

Just restored all of my user apps, and all is looking good thus far.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Anyone having issue where apps that are suppose to come preinstalled are not installed?

also..

Not able to install my own apks.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] MortimerR:
Can't way to give this ROM a try.

Does this work on any S912 device? Or only particular devices?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
Are you aware of the fact that you have to leave your system alone for the first few minutes after first initial boot? It seems that even navigating through the GUI could do harm to this install process.

So flash, reboot and just wait for the icons to appear on the home screen.

Please try that and report back...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
It shouldnt unless the kernel does not have a call to /system/bin/preinstall.sh

this is the case with the H96 pro H3(S905x), thus why if it does i suggest you flash the init.d installer from the S905x poisonRom thread
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
I have beelink ultimate with s912. Should I flash the init.d installer? Please give some steps on how to do this. Much appreciated. Thank you.

Also: in OTA updater i get message. Unsupported kernal. The kernal developer has not enabled support for ota updater.

Kernal.ota.prop missing.

Please help. Would like to get this rom working on my device.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Instructions are in the S905x thread

Also yes because there is no need for OTA to have kernel support, its not a custom kernel
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Do I run the init.d enabler before or after installing the poison tom?

I am currently unable to install any apks while on the rom as is.

---------- Post added at 01:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 AM ----------

I flashed the init.d v1.3 with twrp and released poison rom v4.1 again. Still same issues.

Unable to install apks

Nav bar disappears after minimized

None of the preinstalled apps installed.

Help me please! :((((
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Gabsthejerk:
You can remove sunvell launcher using titanium backup and install any other launcher.

However, nova is too heavy for the tv box and takes up too much resources

You can opt for something light like Lean Launcher or Square Home 2
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
flash after flashing poison
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kyoshihub:
thank you for the suggestion i uninstalled it the default launcher.

the tv box is meant for my parents usuage instead of a computer so things gets messed up i can fix it. nova launcher is highly customizable so i can lock desktop hide apps and night mode which is easy on their eyes so that is why i prefer it. not sure if its a high usuage but the box still seems fast
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Thanks so much.

After flashing with init.d v1.3 nav bar noe autohides along with status bar.

Issue with apks not installing was because I was checking auto install in es file explorer settings. For some reason it fails apk installintions when this setting is on.

This Rom is awsome. Everything is running smooth

Great work. Much appreciated.

---------- Post added at 05:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 AM ----------

Ricky. Is it at all possible to make the launcher icons be blank so the we select what apps are in main screen of launcher. I'm sure everyone has little preferences of their own.

Instead of kodi would use terrarium tv. Another but on would be like power menu app which would allow reboot power off or recovery.

Not a must. Ur work is already much appreciated. Donations on the way.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Thanks for the feedback, thats one of the common issues we have with AMLogic devices, one kernels have the preinstall init.d hook, others dont,an this is what people dont get about making universal firmware, theres always going to be bugs until i get more information on the chipsets, drivers etc..

There is no customization capabillies at the moment, but i will upload a flashable .zip that will change the icon from kodi to TTV

Thanks for the donation :) it is greatly appreciated and i will be including a list of donators inside the rom next release :)

Hello Rick I think I make a big mistake... I flash the stock rom with USB burning tool normally after that I flash the recovery, I'll try to install poison4.1 rom without wipe (my first mistake) and recovery give me error. After that I wipe (second mistake) system, cache and data instead the normal wipe.. I try to flash the poison4.1 again error. Now the stock rom doesn't work because I wipe system and when I go to flash again with USBburning it give me error..

P. S. I don't have mSD or usb but I poison2 the poison2 with success!

Any help?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] antouaa:
This is the error that I say.. In recovery goes in!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] antouaa:
I did it I find a mSD! [emoji2] [emoji2] Now I install it and I will try it! Thanks for the rom!!! [emoji2] [emoji2]
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
the zip file was corrupt while either downloaing or transferring to the USB, try opening the .zip on pc and see if it says corrupt, if it is redownload, if its not, then transfer to usb again
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] antouaa:
All its going very well in transfer from my phone the zip broken! You forgot to change the name of the rom it still in poison v3 in the info! [emoji39]

Thank again for your work and the speedy response!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Gabsthejerk:
SquareHome 2 is what you need: light, BIG icons, locks desktop, support widgets.

Totally!!! Very customizable and works well with air mouse
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Are u able to change three of the launcher app squares to these specific apps? Pls don't laugh at my edited art of ur launcher.

If not able to. Is it something us none coders can do? Like going into apk and assigning wallpaper and link to open said app on modified launcher?

Seriously am loving the rom. System is running flawless and installed apps are working so smooth. Did more than debloat this rom. I think u made something which all the android box companies should consider doing

Also, music app changed to spotify icon. Would be awesome:D.

Hello, will someone with codding skills help me to put init.d support into this ROM https://mega.nz/#!OwlkEDRJ!CnLslKiCiGhzSeP-8fSdcA5RZsoRYZt3mX9Mbnq-oq0

For most of you it`s a peace of cake but for me after two days of reading and trying many different ways my head will explode.

I`m pretty sure this is the reason why poison rom can`t install form official ROM on my x92 3G.

I install poison from many others custom ROMs but one thing works and others don`t.

Thank you very much

and excuse my English it`s not perfect :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
In the poison S905x thread in the main post theres an init.d enabler
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
+1
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Make sure you use the init.d v1.3 on the s905x forum like Ricky says. I had a v1.6 one I don't remember from where and it didn't work.

To install: after having flashed the poison rom reboot to recovery and then go to install and install the v1.3 init.d.

Then reboot to system.

For me didn't fix installed the preinstall apps. Did fix nav bar.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
You must wipe /data after installing the init.d installer otherwise install poison, then flash the init.d installer then make first boot

Why is this needed? Most AMLogic S912 firnware contain a call from the kernel running preinstall.sh, some however dont.

As we sacrifice support for kernel features/mods to accomodate almost universal wifi support, we lose this abillity if the kernel does not contain the call, we are ledt without init.d because thats my hook.

Next version will be a USB burning tool package, too many request as to how to install the rom
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inscriber:
Yes I try it with wipe data too but I think this injector doesn't do anything it didn`t make init.d folder and when I create it manualy and paste 00test script for testing it seems it didn`t install it.

I try this on my oficial ROM also try it on ROM from first page of this tread. it doesn't enable init.d support at all

no mater what I do wipe , clean , format. etc
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
My rom already has /system/etc/init.d
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] woodsy45:
I have only been back about an hour after being away for a couple of days attending a wedding so catching up on posts!

I have not got a working remote yet (as of late Thursday night after installing Poison v4.1). That was the last time I used my H96. Next step between today and tomorrow is use Ricky's Customisation Tool to extract files needed from Stock Rom and try those.

I see in you next post you had a bit of success with your remote. Was that with both boxes or just the ultimate?

Will see what happens when I replace my remote and wifi files.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inscriber:
Yes, poison rom it have init.d. I`m talking about T95Z-3GB-912C-2018-4-16-v1076 wich I need to install before poison. Only with this rom everything is working good when I install poison ROM except front LCD display of the box. Thats why I want to flash poison over original rom for x92 box where the display is working good, but when I flash poison rom it stuck after boot video of course with working display but poison is never boot. I think init.d in my oficial rom is missing and can`t continue with installation. Maybe I`m wrong.

Thank you fo your support and great ROM. I think I will leave with no working LCD in front :)

New member :D

Hi Ricky ,

New member to the site,Just like to say a big thumbs up on your work regarding the new v4 rom.

Looks much better and is nice and smooth operational wise.

No problems with the rom that I have came accross.

Is there anything else I need to flash ?

I see some members talking about (Init.d-Injector-v1.6-T95Z) Do I need to flash this also ? This is the version I downloaded from your google drive not sure if it's the latest or not.

Any feedback would be great.

Cheers Chris.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
How do you look to see if init.d support is enabled?

What exactly does init.d being enabled help to do for the rom?

I know it fixed my navbar working how ricky's rom was inteded to work. Thats about it
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] woodsy45:
A bit late replying but I also had no remote control, wifi or initially bluetooth although I have got round the latter. Everything around home is connected by ethernet and I use an Rii mini keyboard so for my personal use this has not an inconvenience. I will over the next day or two extract relevant files from original firmware and see if that fixes it, as much for my personal satisfaction but more for others who absolutely need these to work. Will report on outcome, success OR failure!!

No other problems found apart from above which I think is absolutely marvelous for a universal ROM. Well done Ricky.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inscriber:
for test look at this tread:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1933849

simply paste 00test file in "init.d" folder and restart if it`s working you will see log file in DATA folder but read the link :)

I`m not sure is Poison Rom didn`t boot from my official rom because missing init.d maybe is just don`t from something else. I will stop reading and goes to stuff that are not for me :D I`m getting more and more confused :D Poison ROM working great except LCD front display of x92 3g box If anyone manage to get it work let me know :) [MENTION=244033]ricky[/MENTION] I'm sorry for waisting your time I will stop :) you know what to do and you doing it well thank you.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] brooker88:
Had no luck mate, I think Ricky said in next version he would have it fixed. I asked over on freaktab n didn't hear a reply yet about it either so no idea

after i install 4.1, my wifi still cant turn on. how to solve it ? i try to search the post, but cant find it
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
If the navigation bar down bottom autohides and is semi transparent, then init.d is already enabled, no need to flash anything

If the navbar autohides and is semi transparent

Please keep me updated, if you find anything let me know, i only have one S912 device at the moment so until i get khadas package i can only assume the porting scripts work in theory

Still looking for a solution for LED control + a universal fix for lcd

What wifi chip have you got?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
what problems do you have on LED? and what do you want to fix?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Anyone have error with OTA download. Get an error saying kernel no supported, contact developer to allow something or the other.

I am using Bee-link GT1 and already flashed init.d

Is there something I can do to fix this?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
theres no kernel included with the rom, so it isnt supported
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
some dont change/work correctly
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Is there a way to get the right kernal on my device?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Flash the init.d injector, then you device will have an init.d kernel
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
I did this already. My nav bar us good. But ota still gives error message something about kernel is not compatible or something. Not a must fix tight now. Just something to look at.

Is there a way to allow spotify or any specific app such as you tube in the background? I start playing music on spotify and when I hit home button. Goes to home screen and music stops. Any fix for this?

Thanks guys.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inscriber:
Background activity didn't work even on split screen. you can't use two apps at the same time at all :(
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
on different models? like X92?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] brooker88:
I had this problem too, the home button seems to kill apps. If you use iytbp you can use background Playback on YouTube by using the back button not sure if would work with Spotify as I don't use it
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] inscriber:
thank you this actually work flawless. Who needs spotify if there is working youtube in background.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Cool. Thanks. Will try and post back.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Theres youtube vanced or go to www.itubeandroid.com

Thats the official android itube app that allows caching and background playback
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] brooker88:
Also a little tip, the 1080-4k resolution mod on YouTube only works on wireless, doesn't work on Ethernet (will stay at 720p) if your box is next to router and you have decent speed I'd reccomend using wireless so everything loads straight into 4k instead of 720p or lower

For 4K youtube, you can try smart youtube.

It come with options for 4K and tv version, which work better with remote.

Great! Ill mod youtube in v 4.5 or 5, next version will have multiple install methods and will be compatible with my customization tool so the mods are endless!

I appreciate the donation, you can donate via paypal to ricky.divjakovski@gmail.com

All donators will be listed in next version of the rom and on the thread, just been busy with the customization tool

More effort will be put into this rom as from yestersday :)

how to check my wifi chip ? sorry to this nerd question, i tried myself from the mac addresss it found from azureware
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] woodsy45:
As promised I extracted the remote, bluetooth and wifi files from the original firmware using Customisation Tool.

I then did a clean install of stock firmware on my H96 3/16 Q9377 box and flashed Poison v.4.1.

Everything worked as expected apart from the above three areas. Status & navigation bars autohid, all apps installed and I was able to install my own (I always sideload by the way and never use Play Store). Screen saver is also working and I had also added Magisk Manager to Poison Rom using WinRar before flashing. When opened it offered to download and install Magisk 16.0 which it did with no problem.

I then did a reboot and using Total Commander with Superuser Rights copied my extracted files to the relevant folders granting them same permissions. I am sorry to report that after rebooting nothing had changed. I really thought something may have happened, even at worst I had made the system unstable..... but no!!!

The quest goes on I am afraid.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bluefender:
i also tried similar with the remote.conf, but my original rom does not have a remote.conf but a remote.config file, nougat rom changed out the remote.conf file, so now im a little lost.
