Hi SlimHouse,

as I never did this before, I better describe exactly what I did:

1) I rebooted the box, checked whether settings are `default` (and started SSH server) and made first `logcat -d`.

2) Then I've changed the settings (Resolution to 1920x1080 and SDR to HDR on) and made second `logcat -d` (seems to be the same content)

3) Then I've rebooted the box, and made third `logcat -d`

All files are attached in the zip file.

I observed, that after the boot the screen resolution was 1920x1080 up to the moment when launcher was started, then screen flashed black and resolution was set to default 4K.

My TV is reporting the resolution and HDR of HDMI input in a popup.

Thanks,

N.

Happy New Year to all! Version 10.4 is excellent, personally i have the following problem and i can't handle it alone. I have a BB2 Pro box on which the WIFI module burned out. I used it with USB TPLink dongle with Android 7. Unfortunately it doesn't work with this version. There are probably no drivers for it. I would be very grateful. if anyone can help. Thanks!

[MENTION=5759238]Nivan0611[/MENTION] Go for AtvXperience. It is quite good but dont install too much apps because it is already heavily optimized rom. It lags badly when alot of apps are added and there is no room left for z-ram (swap) to work.

If you have S912 chipset box, you may try android 9 based custom rom "Rom ATV9 Android 9.0 Cho Amlogic S912 By DaivietPDA"

I'm blind, or there's no slim 8 firmware for X88 Pro X3 (encrypted) ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Daniel Smedegaard Buus:
I found the links from SlimBox's Telegram page: https://t.me/s/slimbox_x3_x2/100

The encrypted version is linked to as well as the non-encrypted ones.

Can I ask you, how do you tell if yours is encrypted or not? I just got my X88 Pro X3 from Amazon today, and I'm wondering which ROM I should try to install. I already made an SD card with the AMLogic tool, containing the ROM for the unencrypted version of the X88 Pro X3, but I'm hesitant to just pop it into the box and assume it won't brick it :)

EDIT: Direct link to encrypted version: https://mega.nz/folder/EKpxURCA#S2PgP0RmGGG0tlpB8owDkA
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] RolF2:
I'm allready have v7 installed, just asking if there's v8 for encrypted x3.

And to answer your question - dont use sd card for now. Just try to flash your box with usb burrning tool.

If it's encrypted you'll get error at 1% with no harm to your box...

Hi All . . . . .

What am i NOT DOING RIGHT :confused:

I'm trying to install this ROM . . . . I cannot get it to boot into TWRP using the USB Cable !!!

I hear (or get the acknowledgement) from the pc . . and that's about all !

No TWRP coming up on the pc . . . just nothing nothing nothing :D

Reset Pin in whilst i then add the USB Cable (i have tried all the ports)

2 of the USB-2 ports brings the boot up on the box (but nothing on the PC so i cant determine what is happening) :mad:

Please tell me, am I also (or in the first place) need to bring up the USB Burning Tool, or not use this at all . . . .

There is no detail or complete instruction how to go about this procedure from scratch, not that i mind going through the whole forum postings from thread 1 . . not at all (and i have done so a few times already) just picking up from one person to the other.

Please may I request some help . . .

Many Thanks, I'm sure i will be smiling soon :fingers-crossed: and enjoying the ROM just like you :laugh:

---------- Post added at 01:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

May I add further . . .

I think it will help all and every newcomer if someone could make a video and perhaps also a fixed posting of complete install instructions by SlimBOX on the opening page to refer back to (if need be)

Installation does not seem as simple as flashing a phone which i have done many times :laugh:

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Sealowed:
Yes you can install Magisk through TWRP by flashing the image of magisk_patched_new.img by selecting the boot partition. BEFORE you have to delete the root by always flashing in TWRP UPDATE-unSU-signed.zip

This is version 20.3 of Magisk, after you must update it by downloading the ZIP version 20.4 from the Magisk Manager application or by downloading it HERE. And then flash the ZIP with TWRP.

Possible to make the TV Box appear as a Google Chromecast with Google TV or some other official device to increase the number of compatible apps on the Google app store?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] berom:
Cast receiver is installed by default but it has limited features: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.softmedia.receiver.castapp&hl=en&gl=US

I installed Chromecast build-it but I don't see a way to configure it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Rainey222:
I have an x96 Max Plus box and samsung TV and I have not found a good way to use cast receiver or even the original mirror cast that was loaded on the stock ROM. They are limited you could screen cast with mirror cast but had to hold phone in landscape direction ect...

I tried the Chromecast built-in software suguessted and just like the poster above was not able to figure out how to make it work or it just didn't work with my device. At least three different versions as some would not even open or install. So just like other poster once installed could not open it to configure it.

I have used cast web video app on my phone to cast to tv or to my tv box, and it worked good but the problem is you have use it to browse to the video to be casted. You can not just hit the cast button on any video in any browser and that's what we all to be able to do.

The cast web video app uses DLNA so can cast direct to TV, or if you have kodi install on tv box and setup DLNA under system\servives. This is nice as it plays in the Kodi media player.

Bottom line we all would like to be able to find the software combination to use to be able to just hit the cast icon on a video at youtube or other website and have it play on our tv box.

Right know if I do that on my X96MAX plus with atv 10.2 and cast reciver turned, from my Samsung s9 phone, just under the youtube video you select cast reciver, it show it "initlizing" for ever.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] cHarOn99:

That Chromecast app won't even install on my X96 Air.

I managed to spoof my TV box to make Android think it's an Nvidia Shield. I now have access to a larger library of apps in the Google Play Store - Amazon Prime now appears for example. To achieve this I had to enable root and install Termux from the Play Store. I then used X-Plore to navigate to root/system and modified the build.prop file. Ensure that the X-plore root access setting is set to "Superuser + mount writable". Google the build.prop of the device that you want to spoof and change these variables to match them.

ro.product.model=SHIELD Android TV
ro.product.brand=NVIDIA
ro.product.name=foster_e
ro.product.device=foster
ro.product.manufacturer=NVIDIA
ro.build.product=foster
ro.build.fingerprint=NVIDIA/foster_e/foster:5.1/LMY47D/35739_609.6420:user/release-keys

Afterwards, I navigated to Termux and executed the following commands:

su
settings put global device_name "NVIDIA SHIELD TV"

Then restart your device.

I am experiencing the same issue.

Could those 2 combinaisons together let netflix in hd or higher works properly ??
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] w0g:
Maybe if your TV box has L1 DRM. But I'm unsure if DRM is preserved on unoriginal ROMs. If you have an L3 DRM box like me you're out of luck. I tried the patched Netflix APK (4.16.3-patched-signed-zipaligned(install first).apk) that supposedly supports HD on any box with any DRM level and videos were still locked to 480P. I can live with 480P, I just found out that the official Netflix app on my Sony Bravia TV from 2014 only supports 480P (using the test pattern video), I was thinking it supported at least 720P due to the video quality not being grainy/pixelated.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] w0g:
Nope, installing it does nothing. Does that APK we've been discussing function?

Nvidia Shield is defo an all rounder, I can't see any faults apart from the price lol. I have the new Chromecast with Google TV, UI is sluggish compared to the X96 and for Kodi in my experience, its been horrible at 4K playback causing Kodi to freeze. The same videos play effortlessly on the X96. And it doesn't have frame rate matching.

And the 5Ghz wifi on my X96 P3 (RTL8822) obliterates the wifi on my Chromecast. Syncs at over 300 more megabits according to my modem.

Thank you very much to the SLIMBOX team, I recently received the TV Box A95X F3 from China, however I was disappointed with the original Firmware, in addition to bugs the interface leaves something to be desired.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Falcon_X:
I am thinking to buy the A95X F3 box and would like to pair my PS4 controller over bluetooth with it.

It looks like there might be different bluetooth chips in the A95X F3 and A95X F3 Air (?), as some mentioning BL is not working for them...

Can someone please confirm Bluetooth and Gamepads are working in this Slimbox Android TV ROM with A95X F3 (without Air)?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] sargaco:
I can confirm that Bluetooth is not working, but I've just installed Slimbox yesterday and I haven't installed the patches yet. Not sure if the cumulative patches fix that issue.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Falcon_X:
"The SLIMBOX firmware contains: • Support for Qualcomm Bluetooth aptX codec"

Ok, thanks for the reply.

Than my search continues, but so far quite difficult...

Maybe someone can please recommend a S905X3 box to me, which is working good with this Slimbox Android TV ROM?

I need a box with good working 5G Wifi, Bluetooth (with working pairing of PS4 controllers?), SPDIF, at least 4GB Ram and it shouldn't get to hot.

I don't care about LAN, Chromecast, paid streaming Apps like Netflix, Disney+

Is there a box out there for my needs? :)

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Falcon_X:
Have looked at this one, too. Might be good, even with Spdif, the remote also doesn't look that bad.

Might get hot with this small round design, but just guessing.

Do you own this box? Have you installed the Slimbox Rom on it?

Update:

Just checked out Chigz review on youtube of this box. This box is also not good. Low Wifi performance, low write speed and 8k is not working. Don't need 8k anyway, but for the Wifi/internal drive read/write speed I think this Rom also can't do much against it.

Also thought about X96 Max Plus, but this one gets temperatures up to 80 to 90 degrees :-P
