You are right my friend this was an old box and I think I was able to do the best that I could with such a box but I am terribly stubborn and I just cant figure this problem out . Its a good exercize and I learned a lot. I got a box that was a brick and I put it back to life , also I dont have sound with HBOMAX I figure it must require some codec. One thing I like with this ROM is that it is quite stable I plan to buy a OON IPTV box for the fun of it and some 905X3 box to see how far I can go with those. by the way I put a tread explaining how to install the google TV launcher maybe you might like it , the thread is under google tv general, try it out and let me know how it went, I also put instruction on how to roll it back in case you dont like it. Cheers

HBOMAX uses conviva this is where i ll try to figure out the sound issue
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] rolo2020:
All versions of HBO were always problematic. I do not understand how such a prestigious company has never been able to develop an app to match ... As Aidan commented in previous posts, the problem is with the rom codecs, which are not compatible with those of the app ...
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bossy007:
how did you replaced remote.tab1 because for me it always shows error as root directory permissions are read only
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bossy007:
Can you help me with IR remote. I've rooted my box tried replacing remote.tab1 using root explorer but it shows directory is in read only So I thought using twrp to mount vendor folder but the device doesn't boot into recovery just reboots. Thanks!

Hi,

I have an Amlogic S903X TvBox. I have installed HBO MAX app but I don't hear any sound. It seems that you have to disable Dolby Digital audio format, but when I am at the Sound menu I click on Manual and it doesn't show the menu to select the sound format.

Is this happening only to me? Is there any solution to this issue?

Thank you all!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Noter2017:
It's probably not a codec issue but an issue with DRM/Widevine. All these cheap China boxes have Widevine L3 and can't play Netflix in FullHD, for example.

The Mi Box 3 (MDZ-16-AA) has an S905X as well and can play everything.

Buy an original box with official Widevine and your box will play everything for many many years.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bossy007:
if you have tx mini H/L use this file
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Mattc001:
I have reached my possibilities with this box; i got problems with apple tv +

Same problem but its either a codec issue or Widevine or both .

i have x96 max plus 2/16, is anybody try flash this ROM (v8) ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Mattc001:
hello what chipset is it using ? You need an amlogic chipset such as S905X or S905w etc......
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] rolo2020:
Hi Ritama! I have the same, but 16/32. It worked perfectly for me. I just have to solve the problem of the ignition with the remote control, it turns off but does not turn on. To turn it on, I must disconnect and connect the power to the box. I would advise you to try it, you do not lose anything. It is the best custom rom with certified android. Cheers!

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Mattc001:
Indeed Aidan the only thing I can think of is that it wants to use wifi to connect to google servers and is unable to but that is nonsense. I tried my best on this box but I never saw anyone with this problem.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Mattc001:
Question for you Aidan you are working on V9 but I also saw that you were teaming with ATVExperience, will these be the same ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Mattc001:
last question for you is it better to buy a S905X3 box or a X905Y2 box or anything else in the amlogic chipsets ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] masaditama:
Will this rom work for H96 Max x3 S905x3 with HCY6355 wifi chipset? If not would you make it work for this wifi chipset. Thanks.

This ROM?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] dolhop:
Super long thread...trying to read from the end backwards...can someone please confirm my findings regarding the remote control? Am I understanding correctly that flashing this ROM will leave the box (such as Nexbox A95X) with the remote control inoperable? And in order to get the remote to function, one must root the device, then muck with remote.conf files?

Hi Aidan,

Will we have any more updates for the H96 Max X2?

Automatic update downloads but fails installation.

Can you help me?

Hello,

Has anyone experienced this problem and managed to solve it?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] roland8622:
Dear aidan

What do you think: i would like order MECOOL KM2 box. This box using Netflix 4k, but i need mouse version. So im use your modding mouse apk it will work with 1080p/4K? Or just the original version?

And where is the Android 10 Netflix mouse version apk? I dont find your site :(

Thank you
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] MarvinUQ:
Once I had a problem maybe similar, I couldn't use any stream services at all, the thing was that the isp that I got my service from for some incredible stupid reason that only their stupid engineers know black listed the NTP servers protocol from their network, so when I started my box it couldn't sync date and it always had like 5 years old date, the box couldn't ever be connected to any service at all.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] MarvinUQ:
El asunto es que no entendia porque no sincronizaba la fecha, creia q era cuestion de que en ese momento estaba usando libreelec, pero no, era culpa de mi ISP. Queria recalcar eso, algunas veces no es problema de la rom o programas, sino algo externo.

-The thing is, I didn't get why it didn't sync with the ntp server, so I taught it was a bug on libreelec which I was using at the time, but no, it was my ISP's fault. What I want to say is sometimes the problem is just something besides the rom or programs we have installed.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Tomek0000:
Thank you for this firmware. I have nexbox s905x 2G/16G. I installed twrp and libreelec 6-7 years ago and used it some months. After years I diged out this equipment and find 255 error when I restored data partition in twrp. I was not able to find any twrp compatible firmware for this device and I found this thread.

I installed 8.+[v8]+Aidan's+ROM+[S905X]+[ATV+9]+(Ampak+AP6330).img without problem and have been suprised the lack of any apps installed in it. I found youtube where is a link to fixed appplications and will use usb to install all.

The firmware does not work with my original remote control. Is it able to add this functionality ?

I use china small BT keyboard with touch pad instead and this is not fine because I do not have any possibility to return to previous menu entry. Escape key does not do it and I do not see any other key with this functionality.

(Should I change firmware to version 7 [v7.5] (Nexbox) Aidan's ROM [S905X] Nexbox a95x 1GB 2GB+.img ?)

Is possible to start working remote or simulate return key on keyboard ?

I migrated to TV7 and here ESC key works as return. It has to be a bug in TV9.

Hi All.... first of all thank you for the hard work you guys are doing..

Now i have an original X96 8gb rom 2gb ram... with realtek wifi card..

i have tried most images.. but none is accepted from version 8.. also version 7 is not working and i end up in soft bricked device...

I am able to recover this.. and bring it back to stock...

is there anyone who managed to get this firmware working on x96 box ( V88-V1.0 2017-05-23 ) is written on the logic board..

Kind regards..

Ok i found number 3 from the download list did flash.. ended successful.. but now have red light and not booting... back to the next i agues.. ))

No more next.. device is now hard bricked and even shorten pins won't recover.. lol.

The system notified that there is an update. After I completed the update and rebooted, I could not enter the TV
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Alexfs:
Folks,

For the remote control problem I installed "BUTTON-MAPPER", it solved most of my problems. (Just an observation, for some reason the device turns off normally on Power but only turns on the Volume button - nothing that hinders use.

For those who are not able to connect to the PC after installing a ROM and the device turned into a brick, I was also unable to short the pins, what I did was connect the tv box to the PC and put a toothpick in the reset button(I opened the device to fix the toothpick), and after a long time (you have to be patient) the pc recognized the box again, then I managed to do a new installation. My TVBOX is an H96 MAX X2, apart from the original ROM, the only one that worked for me was Aidan's, all the others made my device turn into a brick.

Thank you Aidan for this great job.

I hope my experience can help other people.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Noter2017:
That won't work as Chromecast needs Widevine L1. Aidan has a "light" version of the Chromecast app that works for YouTube

Apps – Aidan's ROM

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] r0nmlt:
That would suffice for what I use casting for. I'll give it a try.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Otzelot21:
Unfortunately, I regularly had major problems with the WiFi on my A95X box , which meant that streaming wasn´t possible because no data was transmitted.

So I bought an original Mi Box S in the black friday deals and say goodbye to the forum. :)

Thanks again to Aidan, I had a lot of fun with your Custom Roms last year. :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Tomek0000:
Not bad idea. I will buy something like this with Widevine L1 but it has to be able to receive DVBT2 with Hevc. May be it will be able to buy in future.

I tried this on X96 Air P2 box but bluetooth doesnt work. rest all looks good. can anyone advise how to add bluetooth & wifi drivers? i have 2 roms that seem to work on this box but not sure what files needs tweeking (sorry limited android knowledge) - Slimbox v12 &Davietpda v1.5
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Noter2017:
You can use your spare box to install Armbian or CoreElec on it.

Then install PiHole or Adguard in docker to block ads on all your devices at home. You can install a BitTorrent client in docker as well (if that's allowed in your country).

With Linux on the box, you can also use it as a file server, print server or store back ups from your computers.

That's in case you use Ethernet
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Otzelot21:
Thank you for the suggestions! Add blocker in my ethernet would be a good idea to give the box a meaningful life. :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] emiljano539:
Which type of x96 air do you have ? 2GB RAM/16GB ROM ?

Do you have the original build number of the box ? Before flashing the ROM
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jaintchacko:
@emiljano539, mine is 4/64 version. unfortunately i dont have the original build (messedup the rom so had to flash custom and recover - no backup of original) but know that X96Air_P2_20191017-1917 works (if i,m not wrong this is the build number)

I install today this ROM on H96 PRO, works ok, i have wifi connection, works stably and fast.

Only the USB (wifi) mouse doesn't work propertly in app like youtube, yt kids, and the mouse also does not work when selecting keyboard buttons...

It posibble to shutdown device from menu or only from the remote control?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pentode:
would that file not normally be included in the AP6330 version by default?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
some will be diffent (based on old atvX roms for s905X and W) then will be expanded to more variations :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
i think x3 as alot more roms & devices with these chips, means better community support and more roms to try if your stock is bad :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
honestly not sure currently (so many versions haha) if an x3 rom dosnt have it the driver there are more planned too :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
yes disney plus from play store works :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
your remote may or may not work in not entierly sure from memmory, android 9 no longer uses remote.comf files, other options are HDMI CEC, android tv remote app, a usb remote etc :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
hi, so if you need to use the mouse version you should look for HD mods for netflix mobile app, thes should (did at one point at leat) provide HD on your widevine device wit hthe mouse UI, the apk is the same across android versions :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
what a dumb ISP :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
the del key on some roms does back. or right click in others :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
android TV is not designed for mouse operation whre as AOSP is, the UI hasnt been designed with mouse functionality in mind so many parts just don't click with a mouse :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
if its just YT then use smart youtube next, pair with a pin code and cast YT direclty to that app (Ad free as well)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
haha your a certified L1 man now! Glad your happy with an official box, less workariynds needed, Thanks for your suppoort! :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
it should but maybe wrong one included, or another issue, not sure currently :)

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] felipecassiors:
Does this firmware allow the Mi Box to be always on like the Chromecast does? So that I can start my TV from my mobile.

The original firmware does not allow that because when the Mi Box is turned off it becomes unavailable to cast.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Tomek0000:
Fine for others. Version 8 for nexbox s905x does not have working RC and keyboard without return. I checked all keys on my keyboard without success. But good we have 7.5 version with support of both features :)

Thanks for your great job ! I am using a Nexbox 2/16 and flashed your last ROM! All is ok except the remote which is not working ! I had already the same issue with one of your previous ROM and managed to change the remote.tab1 file in Vendor/etc/. I had previously to root the rom to have access to /Vendor as root. I tryed to root your last rom but impossible to access root ! How can I manage to change the remote.tab1 in your rom ? Here is a working remote.tab1 file for my box.

thanks for your help.

Wifi works fine but there is occasional reboot (I don't know why)
