Yeah its univesal, doesnt flash anything other than kernel and system, so do a backup,if it doesnt work you can restore your device without any problems

To install TWRP, download my Opensource AMlogic tools, open flash tool, go to the port tab, select pull recovery from device, then tick flash after port, then click port
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zavag:
About TWRP ....

I tried it yesterday as you described above. It works BUT I can't work with the remote control nor with any mouse (I haven't a wireless mouse yet) ....

see the attachment
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ErbDroid:
This is because of your controller option, all infrared controllers work from recovery usually (if you had the standard IR controller that come with your box like most do)

Some wireless controllers don't like recovery!!!

If not you need a wired connection, I lost my IR controller once whilst in a bootloop, i managed to use a wired games controller to get me through!! Try use an old 360 or ps3 controller!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
try using a wireless mouse
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
interesting research here
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
Or a keyboard like i did... ;)

Or a remote app on a mobile phone if it supports IR

where to download the v3.0 rom ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
3.0 beta got pulled due to some difficulties
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zavag:
I have the original ir remote control. I believe that something wrong is with recovery image. I tried to do this over 15 days but nothing. This was the best try because the box booted in recovery.

Is it possible to upload someone the TWRP recovery image for Mecool Kiii pro?

Thanks
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ojcu:
Magisk version is acting the same now. I'll wait for new Poison ROM and then do it fresh.

EDIT

And it's fine again and I've done nothing since yesterday. It's just beyond my understanding.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] hahaboy:
can i flash v2.0 to 7.1.2 ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ErbDroid:
That depends...

As your system is 7.1.2, if you are 2gb/16gb then no, not yet, wait for V3 any time soon!

Or if you wanna give it a taste... then flash a compatible stock 7.1.1 firmware for your make & model, if not ...one that matches your specs (processor, ram & WiFi etc) THEN flash!

Or you'll need to be 3gb/32gb

OR! trust me... It is an amazing ROM! And just patiently wait for V3 ;)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] draken101:
Flash the Poison Rom 2.0 its working great, especially like the AD free nature of the custom rom :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ErbDroid:
Hey Ricky,

I hate to ask questions as I know you are hard at work on goodies for us all!!

But... A little suggestion that could be a nice addition for the future...

I thought that maybe an RSS feed widget with Poisons latest news & updates? similar to how kodi-builds spread they're word too, that way we can choose to use it or not and resize it for our launchers homepage to keep up to date on all this great work! I think it would look very smart!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] hahaboy:
now i'm 7.1.2 3gb/32gb
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] volcomguyaz:
I hope Admins don't shut down this thread. They dislike 'placeholder' threads more then we do - if that's possible.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Thanks to Carmine Rovito, the launcher is just about done :) still minor adjustments but wallpaper changing, integrated reboot menu, scrolling apps etc are working
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] knxwille:
Looks cool. [emoji41]

Huawei P9Lite The Iphone killa :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Release is extremely close! Once launcher is near completion i will release, the base is done, launcher and aroma are the only things left
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
i'm waiting happy like a kid :D Ricky i want to make something for me, let me go step by step :)

Ricky can you help

so, it's night...and when i want to install something this window

[IMG="window"]https://i.imgur.com/Dg1flFV.png[/IMG]

is too white and it's lighting all room, so i tried to modify PackageInstaller.apk, opened in ApkEditor, edited only styles.xml and packed back, replaced and it worked but after reboot android won't boot anymore, tried to replace modded apk with twrp too (did a dalvik and cache wipe), still no result, only original file works, help :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
use my method, decomile, edit, compile, then open compiled apk and get the file you edited and place into original apk, place in system, reboot recovery, clear dalvik cache and reboot
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
but compiled and uncompiled apk's are not the same, not very clear, let me show you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OYEtOu2Iao
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
i know this, uncompile, edit, recompile, in the recompiled apk grab the file that you edited and put it inside the original apk
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
but how do i put the file in the original apk, the original apk dont' have values folder? can you make it please, take the PacketInstaller.apk , decompile it , edit the styles.xml from values folder

delete only first .Light word and save it, and put it in original apk and see if it will work, please
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
A file callef resources.arsc
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] :
Nice

Will we be able to adjust all home screen tiles? Or still Have Kodi even if not needed
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Well the aim is to have a launcher similiar to stock but more customizable and more features while keeping the same layout

The big icons use embedded resources so its not exactly possible to change the big icons, and even if carmine does make it possible it wpuldnt exactly be simple, you would have to set the app and the image seperately

Be sure to thank carmine for all the work he has done, without him most of the UI would not have been possible and hes done so much in the matter of 2 days
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Doctorbeefy:
Any update on the kodi.zip install??

I believe the issue has to do with it being installed the same time as kodi is first ran. It unzips our files to the correct location but then the kodi apk overwrites all the files back to default on install.

As for the sunvelllauncher

You can edit the applications that are opened using myonkeylistener.smali and myontouchlistener .smali its pretty easy to find the sections as they are tied to the images

I have a working version that opens terrarium and a few other apps atm if you are interested
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
It was easy to fix the kodi install.zip

You simply have to add the files to the APK file

As for the launcher, i seen this, but its not very ethical for intermediate users thats why i decided to create my own launcher with the help of Carmine Rovito, so far its proving very powerful, alot of features, wallpaper changing, reboot menu etc

As soon as its done im able to release 3.0 Stable
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lemach:
First, thanks for your work. I have successfully installed Poson Rom v2 3/32 on a Mecool KIII Pro but i can not turn on wifi...settings app hang up...sorry for my english

Any fix?

Have a good day.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Doctorbeefy:
Got ya. There are a few issues that come with preinstalling your build in the apk if your using custom skins etc.

Also is there a way to get an .img for this build at all? I flash a lot of devices and that seems to be the quickest way, not that this way is bad though.

Also there are two playstores in the rom. The real one is named google play store, the other one is named play store. The one named playstore is some fake chinese one used for the current launcher and led lights. If you remove it, it causes both of them to no longer work correctly and makes it so thirdparty launchers don't stay as default. My question is does your custom launcher require this as well? I would like to see it gone because I don't trust it.

If you need help with your custom launcher let me know. I would love to offer my time to help out with this project.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Yes,we solved this issue last build,as for my custom launchef its completely independant, remove whatever you like and it woulf still work

As for the custom img, theres no option to do this fof me because im running windows, im in the process of building tools to reconstruct amlogic images but im unable to recognise the first 4 bytes of an aml_upgrade_package, the other few million i can

If you have some experiance with java ill make the launcher open source

Issues with Perfect Player

Has anyone had issues getting the EPG to populate in perfect player. The streams play fine but the EPG won't populate.

I using the most recent version of the 3/32 rom and I'm using 1.4.6b1 of perfect player, I had no issues with previous versions of this ROM, any help would be appreciated as I'm in a serious time crunch here.

Thanks,

Gabe - KodiTalk.tv
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] JonHeath:
Hi.

Firstly thanks for this fantastic Poison ROM :)

I've been testing version 2. My main use case for the box is to play very high quality video/audio. It's already been touched on in this thread, but I'd like to confirm that I've also suffered very choppy playback of high res (4k) h.264 videos. The same files played fine on previous stock ROM's. For info my 4k h.265 files play fine.

Is this issue resolved in version 3? I might have to go back to the stock ROM for now :(

Thanks
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Are these videos being streamed or played from local storage?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] JonHeath:
They're being played off my NAS. Both the NAS and the Android box are hard wired into my network. None of that setup has changed.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Hmm it may be a network error, could you transfer one of the files to the devices local storage and try playing?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Ive been looking into it, it seems as though kdplayer is using a script to load the modules from the kodi.zip in /system/media

If I can find that script I can make an init.d script that does the same thing if Kodi is installed
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] simonchunk:
Can also confirm that this ROM works for the M9S Z9. Both TWRP and Poison ROM

[IMG="M9S Z9"]https://www.dhresource.com/0x0s/f2-albu-g5-M01-BA-8F-rBVaI1hrtmaAAl2tAAR6244bC9o716.jpg/m9s-z9-tv-android-box-2gb-16gb-s912-octa.jpg[/IMG]
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Should work with almost every s912 device, doesnt hurt to try, the most that could happen is you may have to flash the device back to stock

ALSO V2.0 COMING VERY SOON ASWELL AS THE 3/32GB VERSION!

ETA 1 HOUR
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
For 3rd release maybe consider to change App-icon with Android apps icon? I am not anti-Apple but I don't understand Apple (Store) icon on the home-screen in an Android system.

If I can help with gathering some nice icons or even icon-packs please let me know. Happy to do some labour in return ;)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ridfa1_06:
I am looking for an android TV version. any chance to support it? I can help if needed.

I found a tutorial to change classical android to android TV but only for Marshmallow version...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...beelink-gt1-multi-6255-9377-standard-ultimate

This installs on my T95Z box, 3/32gb wifi AP6255. Should work with wifi 9377 as well, there was something else you had to flash I think to fix bluetooth sound issues with the 9377 from memory. I actually didn't mind it, but have been working with Ricky on this POISON ROM, so the android tv got put on the back burner.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] antouaa:
Hello again! I want to ask something more! This rom is preroot like the stock? Doss it has supersu app and if I want to install the magisk I will do it with the known way, install un-root.zip and after that magisk from recovery?

Thank for your great work I am waiting for the v2 to install it!!!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ridfa1_06:
Hi whiteak,

I already tried GT1 custom rom but it doesn't support AP6330 wifi chip!

the Poison rom support it!

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
V2 Just installed, works great!

Only had to change keyboard layout for remote (i use Bluetooth RKM remote with keyboard) to English International to make the '@'-sign work.

Future request: would be nice if apps like Anymote Smart Remote on a smartphone could connect through WiFi (i.e Add Remote>WiFi>Android TV)

Now i use Cetusplay...not too bad also...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Yes Poison should work for you, just have to install the right version depending on which variant you have 2/16 or 3/32. Also have to make sure you are on the equivalent stock version before flashing Poison, eg. 7.1.1 stock for 2/16 variant and 7.1.2 for the 3/32 variant, The 3/32 variant is now done, just have to keep a lookout for it, should be uploaded in the next couple of hours.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] k.martin:
I just realised this is for s912 device so will this work with t95z plus 2/16gb?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
Yes, and it works great!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] k.martin:
Thanks man :) will be downloading today :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] :
I have same box as you, but at 7.1.2

This still wont work for mine right?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
Another request (tell me if it gets annoying!): (optional) YouTube (HD) baked in with Ads removed ;)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Mine is 7.1.2 as well, but I'd go with Poison Rom.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] :
Yes , but the version posted right now is only for the 2/16?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
I have it, it's the version with background play, I was going to include it in the 3/32gb Rom, but some settings are a little bit tricky for the everyday user, not a issue for tech minded people, decided to leave it out. Will look at adding it next version then.

---------- Post added at 01:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 AM ----------

3/32 7.1.2 Poison Rom should be up within 24 hours.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] JonHeath:
Hi. I just tried that. Copied to the devices local storage and it still plays in exactly the same way. I copied a sample 1 minute version of this format. It's only 35mb. Happy to upload it somewhere so you have a test file to play with?

It doesn't matter whether you play this in Kodi, VLC, etc. It's the same result with this ROM. Thanks.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Pm me, i think i found the problem
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lemach:
Any idea about this?

I would like have this rom working...it looks a very fast rom.

Cheers.

What wifi chip have you got?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] volcomguyaz:
Sweet
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lemach:
Thanks for response.

WiFi Chip: BCM4335

Do you need any file from my device? Or can i do it by myself if you can show me. Device is rooted.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
flash stock kernel from your device, you can extract it from stock firmware with my customization tool and pack into a zip, after that any rom you try without working wifi, aslong as you flash stock kernel theoretically it should work fine
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lemach:
I am going to try it...

Later i will tell you if i have get it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PTHugo:
Hi bro only seen your answer today, happy to say with stock kernel ROM boots up like you told me to, but one problem still wifi chip 9377 driver is on the ROM some how kernel don't use it so no wifi how to solve this? Thanks again this is the best rom I ever tried on this old h96pro I be been using network adapter but really need wifi, Awesome work, Can't wait to test that Oreo ROM I believe you will be able to pull it off, amazing really I am amazed with this firmware
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] omair2005:
eagerly waiting for the new release! really glad I found this, because my box with stock seems to be lagging. Thanks for you work
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lemach:
I will wait to flash my original kernel with poison rom 3.0...

Thanks for all.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PTHugo:
I didn't flash v3.0 it was 2.0 where can I find link for v3.0 the one on 1st post is broken and where can I find Rick's customization tool. Thanks
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] DrvLikHell:
I have an H96 Pro (not plus) TV dongle on the way, but it's a 2gb/8gb version. Is it still possible to use this rom with it?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lemach:
I will wait for v3.0 stable release...not beta.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Sure, flash the 2/16GB version
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PTHugo:
Please mate coul you link me to your customization tool try to do some s905w stuff thanks

Is country Greece and Greek language in DTV settings?

If no ...

How could be modified the DTV program in order to select country Greece with Greek language for INFO function at programs?

and (again):

I can't change the recovery partition with TWRP or any other working program to have a full backup of all my installed programs etc.. Can please anyone who managed this upload a working .img file of the recovery partition?

Thanks
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
I have no idea, havent looking that far into it
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zavag:
My question is about the app DTV ... Are there any settings file about country, language etc? And where are all these?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] MR01:

AT YOUR OWN RISK

Keep the current recovery with these utilities and then try this
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] volcomguyaz:
That's the exact one I have - I was not able to get 2.0 running. 3.0 sounds promising. Twrp was easy see below. Let me know if you have any problems/questions. Also, I have all 3 of our official firmware's 6.0, 7.0 and 7.1.2.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] DrvLikHell:
Didn't work, hung at the S912 logo. Gave it a good 7 - 8 minutes waiting there.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] volcomguyaz:
that's as far as I've ever gotten too. I have flashed both versions, multiple times.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] DrvLikHell:
What device are you trying to flash it on? I've got an H96.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
V3 is near ready, all bugs have been fixed, i may release 3.0 beta 2(but stable), with the stock launcher until ultimateLauncheer is ready then ill push a small update to add the launcher when ready
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] DrvLikHell:
Will that also fix the problem we're having with hanging after the S912 logo?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Well there are more mods that assist with it like the fact it doesnt come with a kernel so it will use the one thats already flashed to the device and operational, so that solves a few issues like wifi aswell
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] #tonyp:
V3 beta 2 sounds good, not bothered about launcher as would customise a different one. Let's have it... & great work, thanks
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Only 1 thing left to test is some 4k video playback, im gonna upload tonight

Heres some info about the ROM

Its based on build 1076 for the 3/32 variant

Modified to work on both 2/8, 1/16, 2/16 and 3/32 variants

Your devices must be on stock 7.1.2(not 7.1.1), so flash stock first

Included is OTA updates so any bug fixes or features, you will be notified and it will request download and flash automatically

No more PPPoE!! At all. This causes a significant amount of lag and RAM usage, so ive removed it entirely. To be precise, 15-20% ram usage is PPPoE background processes.

The navigation bar has been fixed

Multiple other bugs have also been fixed.

The ROM is debloated even more, its less than 500MB so you will get the bare minimal installation and customize it how you like

The default wallpaper has changed

The rom overall is extremely efficient, better to describe it as "almost completely perfect"

Donations will be more then welcome after the release, im currently not accepting any until i push V3 beta 2, this is due to the fact that i dont wanna let anyone down, nor do i expect anyone to feel as though they have to pay for the ROM.

This is a ROM for the S912 community to enjoy courtesy of me.

If anyone else wants poison for another chipset or custom roms made for dustribution, PM me and we may be able to sort something
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] ZeroZorro:
Question after reading this:

If someone has a device where no 7.1.2 stock ROM is available for, could he/she flash Stock ROM for/from a simular device and flash Poison just after that?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Im sorry man i cant answer that, it could work or it couldnt, someone would have to try, ill be posting both 7.1.2 usb burning tool firmwares for 3/32 and 2/16 so if someone wants to test go for gold
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] #tonyp:
I've never been able to find stock 7.1.2 for 2/16 T95Z?
