try to bootloader and hope it still can be reflashing!
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] yours_falsely:
I jumped on the bandwagon of the prime day PH-1 and picked one up. I ran through all of the updates and turned on the fingerprint sensor gestures but they aren't working. fingerprint for unlock works just fine though. I've rebooted several times and done a hard reset to no avail. Am I out of luck here?

Thanks
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] .generic:
If you updated to Android Pie you have to enable gestures. Burried all the way in the system tab at the bottom of settings.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] waj1234:
What do they do? I find the sensor is not in a good place for gestures.

I love the apps oneplus gestures and hide nav bar though. Gives same gestures as op6 and hides nav bar for full screen.

Shame they are not built in along with double tap to wake and skip lock screen after face unlock.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] .generic:
On the Essential its just to pull down the notification shade.

I was just about to start searching for this feature. Coming from the Pixel 2 XL I realized I didn't really need it but just wanted to have it lol. This phone is really nice too bad there won't be a second one

T95Z 3/32 INFECTED ROM V1.0​

Introduction

Here is another Custom Rom I've made for the 3/32 T95Z Android Box. It is based of the Android TV OS 7.1.2, Custom Recovery (TWRP) is already included, has been debloated, etc, a few init.d tweaks added.

If you like this Rom and care to make a Donation, you can DONATE HERE.

Images

Installation Instructions

Flash through USB Burning Tools which can be downloaded from here.

A Video showing the procedure can be watched here.

Not the best video, but should be good enough for beginners to get a understanding of what to do.

Download

Full uncompressed Rom can be downloaded from here.

A Compressed version of this .img can be downloaded here.

Extract and then flash the .img through USB Burning Tool.

Both versions are the same, just one is compressed to save on Download Size. Just make sure if downloading the Compressed Zip, to extract to the .img file to Flash.

Special Notes:

When Netflix asks to upgrade to newer version or not, decline, otherwise it will upgrade to a version that is not Remote Friendly or one that won't open, I have tried to install Netflix from the Android TV Play Store, it installs, but it won't open, I need to look into it a bit further, so just stick with the version I have included for now.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
heh, nice, you should archive the IMG to a zip, it will be half size small
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Not a bad idea, thanks.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 19800123:
Is there AptoideTV here? https://mega.nz/#!bV0wUaRS!Ximb03962SmC-Feg8DNISagTvQOzZDaycwy4-ulbZqI
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
I'm not sure what you're asking, the link you provided is AptoideTV by the looks of it?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] brhood9:
This is awesome. I am downloading now. Thanks so much for your hard work on this guys. Any major bugs we should be aware of?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Brusington:
Do we need to use the burn tool at all or can we just drop the .img file onto a thumb and flash in TWRP?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
I would use the Burn Tools, I haven't tried to flash this Rom .img through TWRP honestly, so couldn't tell you, if you want to try, let me know the result.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Brusington:
Well, I see what you mean now. Going through TWRP I get a failed message that says "size of image is larger than target device". I have a feeling there is a method I'm totally missing here. What route would you suggest? Also, thanks in advance ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
The USB burning tool as per the instructions. Only method I have tried and verified myself, so stick with that.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] brhood9:
Can you please tell me how to turn off this dang box LED on this ROM?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] antouaa:
Will you make the rom for the 2/16gb version?

Thanks!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
For now, you won't be able to, as the LED was embedded into the old SunvellWin8 Launcher, You may be able to open the box up and disconnect it, not too sure though, I'll probably have a look at doing this myself.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Maybe, not too sure yet, If I get ahold of the 2GB Stock Firmware for 1081, I could, but as I only have the 3gb Box, I can't really test.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 19800123:
Another easy to use market
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 19800123:
我是用谷哥翻譯的.翻譯不太好.所以我很少說話.Android TV Remote Control 這一個功能你的rom好像刪除了
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Mate, there is a major communication error going on with your posts, I suggest using a different translator as I don't understand what you're saying.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Try the Cetus Play apk.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Brusington:
No good for me. USB burning tool halted and failed at 2%. I have the T95Z 3/32 version. Now it could be my USB cable which I saw was the case with other devices and it also doesn't seem to be a common issue as if right now. I'll pick up another cable this week and see.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Or it could be you have the LP Ram version maybe?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Brusington:
Hmm. That may be it. Sounds like I have to fiddle with the main board huh. Any way for me to check? I don't mind taking it apart. Or would I need to do some more digging around on my end? Which I also don't mind doing either.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Try flashing this stock version, if it flashes, you have lp ddr ram. http://www.mediafire.com/file/u931juyh4bc610o/T95ZPLUS-3G-LP-MG-v1076.rar
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Brusington:
Yeah, so it flashed with no prob. So I have to ddr ram. Does that mean it's pretty much a no go for me now? Or will their be alternative development some time in the future? Also thanks again for helping me figure that out dude ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Yeah for now a no go as the Version 1081 Firmware is only normal ddr ram whereas you have the LP ddr ram, I wasn't even aware of the T95Z using different types of Ram until version 1076 come out in 2 different varieries. So, is your box fairly new? Trying to pinpoint when they changed.

There will be something in the works for the future, a Poison ATV version which will be universal like Ricky's and my normal Android Poison Rom. No ETA on when it will be done though.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Brusington:
Yeah I just got mine back in February of this year from Amazon. And that's cool, I can definitely wait on a Poison version for now.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
since i'm from a exUSSR country and i know russian very well, i'm registered on 4pda russian forum, and there are a lot of firmwares, they've asked more users to post the photos of the board, black/green etc, LP DDR3, DDR4 etc . and they ported a lot of firmwares between them

---------- Post added at 07:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 AM ----------

@whiteak on next updates of this firmware and Poison in system\etc\public.libraries.txt

add please this line

libamcodec.so
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Yeah, I've seen you over at 4pda, I know no Russian though, I use a Translator, I don't know how well it translates, but I try.lol. Is that just in the main T95Z thread over there, I've seen a few Firmwares in it, I just though they were Stock, I will have to have another look.

Adding the libamcodec.so line will only benefit SPMC won't it? I have never had a problem with Kodi playing Video Files, I really don't know what this issue is as I have never seen it personally, yet it seems to affect a lot of people just not me.lol
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
if you have some troubles on 4pda you can ask me, i'll answer :D there are a lot of threads for S912 boxes, i'm watching them all, especially Ugoos, they released new firmware these days with fixes, and in those threads are a lot of goodies (fixes, patches) , they are porting/add wifi drivers to support other boxes- Russians are buying tv boxes alot :D

these days i tried SPMC and after adding that line the hdmi self-adaptation was working
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] papla83:
Hi and a lot of thanks, i will burn wright now.

---------- Post added at 01:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------

first try no boot, nothing on led pannel, nothing on TV, waiting for 5 minutes same result, i try to reburn.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
What device do you have again?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] papla83:
it's ok and work fine.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] papla83:
A t95zplus 3gb 32gb.

First feedback, the ethernet isn't working, and the CEC function seems to be little buggy, the LCD pannel doesn't show anything.

The wifi works great, playstore too, the rom is smooth and really pleasant on TV.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] papla83:
I think the CEC function isn't working correctly because this is not the same state on the box when you put off the TV, the box become in sleep mode and not turn off.

If i choose turn off in ir power function, the box shutdown completly but doesn't wake the TV...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
How did you flash it? My own device is the 3/32 T95Z and the Ethernet works, the LCD panel works, haven't tested the CEC function as I don't use it, I just turn it off, check the CEC settings and make sure they are all on.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] papla83:
HI. I burn it with the software on first page the burning tool with an USB a a wire.

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 PM ----------

In my memories the pcb of my T95Zplus is red and I have a 6255ap wifi module. I don't know if that can help you.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
That's the same as my device and all is working for me.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lvs1974:
Could you possibly give us more details regarding running SPMC under Poison ROM?

We need this line in public libraries, but what else should be done? Has SPMC to be installed as a system app?

I tried to install a special debug build with amcodec support, but it always crashes at start.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
on next releases add this script too :)

#!/system/bin/sh
echo 0 > /sys/module/di/parameters/nr2_en

noise reduction from videos

image will be a lil bit better

i'm using this version SPMCapp-armeabi-v7a-debug-16.7.2.apk

spmc can be installed along with kodi,

i've done only one thing in settings

SPMC - Settings > Video leave only amcodec and in a little bit down put Always to all Accelerate
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] papla83:
In my case thé Ethernet doesn't work, but after à few moment when the Ethernet wire is connected to the box, it say me connected but no connection working on any apps (YouTube, iptv, Spotify...) if I unplug the Ethernet, the wifi is working.

---------- Post added at 12:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 AM ----------

Do you want I disassembly my box to compar each chip... Maybe some différences between your and mine.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Jigga2g:
Will this possibly made into a generic rom for all s912 devices like ur poison Rom?

I have a m9pro box that I would like to try this on. It's a s912 32rom 3gb ram.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Here is a list of all SPMC releases: http://download.semperpax.com/spmc/android-arm/?C=M;O=A

I've had a bit of a play around with SPMC before, but I don't use it, so can't really give you too much info about it, I just use Kodi, as I've said previously, I have never seen this problem with Kodi myself that seems to be widespread with the Krypton release, I only use Diggz builds though, I don't know if he has some kind of fix in his build, but I have never had any issues, nor with the brightness issue that I've read about.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lvs1974:
Thank you, I think I should install Infected ROM and try again.

---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ----------

I have never heard of Diggz' Kodi builds.

With Kodi from google play I have some micro freezes.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] drakulaboy:
i'm on Poison ROM, tried SPMC on it, but Kodi 17.6 don't have any issues so i'm using it :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] baileyrhood90:
I would like my applications to run in the background so that when I temporarily switch to a different app I can go back to the other one and it will be exactly as I left it. Do I have to delete that allow background apps file to do this or does it need to be done a different way in this ROM? Thanks for your help.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] AthieN:
Just wanted to chime in and say that I'm using this as my daily driver for my T95z Plus and it's working beautifully! Great job!

Just out of curiosity, are you planning on making flashable zips at all going forward for future updates? Or are you going to stick with images that need to be flashed with the flash tool? Just wondering, because if you create zips, I'd like to add an apk drop-in folder to preinstall apps during the ROM install.

One thing I noticed too, is that in apps like Titanium, the top buttons, like "menu", batch mode, etc. are missing. I remember seeing something about this previously for a different aTV ROM, and it had something to do with the density size of the screen?

And finally, one other quick question - where is the wallpaper image stored?

Thanks man!

---------- Post added at 01:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 PM ----------

Ooooh, and one more thing! Lol. Any chance you could look into adding the top and bottom taskbars to this ROM? I honestly have no idea how to do it, but I've seen it be added to other aTV ROM's so I know it's possible.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] VIPSuperDave:
WiFi enabled?

Hello there, and thank you for the beautiful ROM. I have actually been delaying using my T95Z Plus because I was looking for an Android TV OS port.

I flashed it as per your instructions, and loads up great; however, I can't seem to get a WiFi connection. Any ideas or suggestions? Ethernet cable isn't practice for me. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you and cheers

Dave
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Yeah, delete the allowbackgroundapp.list file from system/etc through ES File Explorer with Root access, reboot and you should be fine, by pressing Home button on your remote, then when you go back to the app you had open, it will be how you left it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
I may look at making a zip, most likely will do something with Ricky and make a Universal Poison ATV Rom like our standard Android Poison Rom.

I haven't used Titanium with this Rom so I don't know the exact issue, but I have seen on another app where a button is missing.

Wallpaper location is in the LeanbackLauncher.apk in \res\drawable-hdpi-v4 and \res\drawable-mdpi-v4, if you make any changes, you have to make sure you set the permissions.

As for the Navigation bar etc, link me to a ATV firmware that has it enabled with the Leanback Launcher and I'll have a look at it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
This Rom has all T95Z wifi drivers pre-installed, you shouldn't have a issue. I can't replicate the fault, it works for me and no one else has reported this problem so far. I've actually noticed that the wifi is picking up more networks on this firmware than on the previous 1076 firmware so I've actually seen an improvement.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lenkosmrk:
where can i find 1081 fw image?

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] VIPSuperDave:
I just reflashed and the same thing... Wifi will not enable... and I can not connect to my Network... any ideas?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Try flashing the firmware right above your post, that is the Stock Firmware for the T95Z 3/32 device before I debloated it etc and see if you have the same problem.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] VIPSuperDave:
Thanks for the response... I just flashed the FW from the link in the post above mine... but I'm getting the exact same thing... it loads up and even connects to my phone... but when my phone prompts for wifi password I put it in and still doesn't work... and I've repeated that like 6 or 7 times and still no go... and when I skip the wifi setup I cannot switch on wifi as it just stays on Turning On WiFi but never does... any ideas. Could I have a different wifi chipset or something?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Well that one you just flashed is the unaltered Stock Firmware, so the problem you're facing is not with Infected Rom, can rule that out now. Now I'd be looking at your Home Network Setup, have you tried the basic stuff like resetting modem etc? If that still doesn't rectify your issue, go back to a Firmware that was working for you.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] VIPSuperDave:
I just flashed Poison ROM 4.3. And it installed with no problems and wifi and everything working.

I don't want you to think I was attacking your ROM, I just want to be able to use it. Lol... it's exactly what I am looking for.

Cheers and thank you.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Didn't think you were, just not making a lot of sense why the 1081 Firmware is giving you issues.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lenkosmrk:
hmmm is there stock 1081 fw, or just atv?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
By Stock, I mean unmodified, it is still ATV.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lenkosmrk:
10x for answer :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] daorigin:
does the netflix in this rom since its android tv based recognized the system as 4k capable?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
No, being ATV has nothing to do with it, it's still not a certified device regardless of what firmware is being used.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 19800123:
If you can keep the remote control of the native Android TV is better. Other remotes are installed according to personal preferences... After all, this version of Android TV remote control can be connected. Before I used 1075.1076 to change the ATV architecture. Android TV remote control Unable to connect. Later I found out that it is a problem with the native firmware. I asked for an official improvement. Because the voice function is very convenient, the official later found out that it is my own problem. Only one version of 1081 came out https://play.google.com/store/ Apps/details?id=fr.bouyguestelecom.remote

This one has more functions. It is not convenient to have voice function.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
I don't use or have a need for either app, but I may look at adding the Android TV Remote back in a future release if I do one. The reviews on the Play Store don't do it any favours though.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 19800123:
I am afraid that the official will see your firmware. There is no Android TV Remote function. After the firmware...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
I have no idea what you are trying to say, I'm trying to understand, but the breakdown in translation is too much, I don't understand.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lvs1974:
Default TV Launcher

How can I change default TV launcher?

I installed a few from google play, but button Home always displays preinstalled launcher.

With default launcher I have an issue: when I press Home, I see default launcher screen, but previously running applications become closed.

For example - I want to use Private Internet Access application & VPN. But when I press Home button - connection is closed and application is not run any more.

Thank you in advance!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
If you want to keep apps running in the background, in ES File Explorer, turn on Root Explorer, then go to System/etc and delete the allowbackroundapp.list file, restart device. This will achieve what you want but can also be annoying if apps don't have a exit function as they will keep running regardless even when you go to the homescreen. You could just edit the list to allow the apps you want in the background, like "org.xbmc.kodi" for Kodi, or "org.mozilla.firefox" for Firefox etc.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lvs1974:
Thank you!

Is it Android-TV built-in functionality, or it is supported in regular Android as well?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] joeching:
Hi Whiteak,

The ROM look nice, will it support 2G Ram and 16G Rom version ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Not at the moment, only the 3/32 T95Z for the time being.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Will work for normal Android as well, but have you tried just using the back arrow key or right mouse button to get back to the home screen, this should leave the app running in the background as well.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lvs1974:
I think it would work, but it is not always convenient.

Actually I added all required apps into /system/etc/allowbackgroundapp.list and it works brilliantly, it is even good that other applications will be unloaded.
