Hi, First off - thanks @aidanmacgregor for the ROMs that continue to make our S905X devices useful. I have used both the Android 7 and Android 9 version of your ROM, but have a question. I have a X96 1G/8G device which I also use to run Coreelec. In your Android 7 version, I can get the X96 to boot into Coreelec on the uSD card by pressing the reset button (in IR port) which booting up.

However in the Android 9 version this is not possible. Pressing the reset button does not seem to make any difference. I have tried on version Options 1, 2 and 7 of the new v7. On my device, if I press the reset button while booting up (without uSD card), I am supposed to get to recovery, but this is also not happening. Is it possible that the dtb does not recognise the reset button being activated? Is there any way to overcome this. I very much like to be able to dual boot Android 9 and Coreelec

Is it possible that the bootloader is locked for the Android 9?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] CyberCodeDroid:
What exactly was the ROM used for?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] all6sand7s:
im also after a rom, ive tried all of them, none work x96 mini sv6030p which is a s905w chip
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
odd not sure at all :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
have you tried my android tv 7?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
i dont think so but i cant say for sure :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
reset button sounds very lightly, could try adb reboot recovery maybe, and they may be locked, not looked into this yet :)

Hi

I have n5 magicsee s905x with 7.1 ATV experience

Can I upgrade it to 9 with your room?

If yes witch one should I use?

Thank you
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] CyberCodeDroid:
Both 7 | 9.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] leadena:
I did the 9 only but I don't understand Wich version should I use sorry but it's my first time I'm nub don't know how the get the chip model even with google
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] cees.vanegmond:
@aidanmacgregor : thanks for the update, no 13 is working properly (y)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] sirzur:
I thought that too. But when I tried your Android 7, the reset button worked. I used @DiogoSilva48's ROM and the reset button was also not working. But I mucked around with adb over network and managed to send commands over adb. So I reckon both Android 9 versions may have the reset button deactivated, maybe by exclusion in the dtb's. But I am happy as long as adb over network works - I only need to use adb reboot update command only once to get to Coreelec in uSD card

Thanks for your reply
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] leadena:
Ok I tried the 7.1 didn't want to install on my magicsee N5 s905x
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Zestar:
unfortunately the android 7 one does not support S912 cpu and I have a box with S912 + S9082C chip. the infamous KM8P
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
sorry it wont work currently, yur device would need a special version, generic ones wouldnt work
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
sorry not much i can offer just now
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
what device do you have?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
glad it worked to boot from SD
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
ahh bugger :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Zestar:
Hello Aidan, I what's the difference in slow emmc versions?

I have a s912 that is not compatible with your rom but Id like to fix the freezing and hanging, I have tested the internal storage speed and is like 14mb/s reading / 7mb/s writing, I have already added Zram with 80 swapiness , very big readahead and different protocols like cfq, deadline, nop, etc and that didnt help at all. how do you approach those issues in your rom? @aidanmacgregor
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] AlecGz:
Hi everybody.

I got a message on the home screen asking to update the system.

It updated and asked me to reboot. But when I reboot it sends me to the bootloader screen.

I tried the Restart and Power off options and when it turns on again the update does not apply. That message is always appearing to me.

Please, how can I get the update to apply?

@aidanmacgregor thank you very much 👍
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jack2023:
Hi Adrian, beautiful work I really thank you for the great job you have done, but none of your roms work with X96 MAX PLUS. I tried your other roms for S905X3 and i bricked my x96 max plus which is an s905x3 tv box. If you can make a rom for it this will be great. Thank you
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] eagledipesh:
@aidanmacgregor can you please post the exact version for new home screen, I willl try installing manually on tx92 s912 device.

Edit:

I manually download and installed the home apk and services,. It still doesn't give me new home screen.

Is there a setting or flag??
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] nasyiinhd:

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
i used a different uboot/bootloader/ddr files, i dont actually have a device that needs the slow emmc or ram speed slowed down :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
im working on v8, update will need to be done manually once its ready :)

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
Your Device Has A S905x2 Chip NOT an S905x, My Rom Currently is not Compatible with s905x2 currently BUT private message me if your interested in testing an s905x2 version for me (i dont have an s905x2 device you see)

What Versin Did You Download that Was Empty?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Hnktc:
Is it rooted?

Link on google drive (s905x) is empty, 350 kb :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
Ok will Investigate Thanks :))
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
Fixed
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Hnktc:

No root yet sorry
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] fluffygrape:
The ROM (AP6212) is working fine on my X96, apart from Bluetooth. But now i am not a 100 % sure that my boy actually has Bluetooth. Found no Info searching google...

Somebody here with the same Box? Is it possible to use a Bluetooth-Stick?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
Hi, AP6212 is a combo Wi-Fi & Bluetooth Module So Your Device Should Support Bluetooth, My AP6212a bluetooth works, its in settings under "Remote & Accessories" Which Version Did You Install, try the ap6212a version too and then the alternative version :) it may be a driver issue in that version or DTB has a pin assigned wrong to enable bluetooth
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] fluffygrape:
Thanks for your reply. Here are my findings:

AP6212: everything but Bluetooth

AP6212a: no WiFi, no Bluetooth

Alternative: Remote not working, not possible to test further

QCA9377: everything but Bluetooth

7.4 universial: everything but Bluetooth

Any way for me to help you resolve this problem?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
just keep an eye out for v5, this is planned to be a major restructure with better Wi-Fi/bluetooth support, Alternative may need a USB remote/keyboard&mouse, or use the android tv remote app on your phone, then if your tv supports hdmi CEC you can use your tv remote control
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] fluffygrape:
Ok. Thanks for the update.

I need Bluetooth to get my PS4 Controller working for Geforce Now. So far no luck with USB.

Looking forward to the update. Thanks for work!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] atvsinh:
Perfect with your ROM (ver3).

My device is Qbox, wifi chip may be RLT 8723BS
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] timosat:
V4 rom with QCA9377 the file explorer is not opening.There's now way to access my usb drive.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
what wifi/bt chip do you have?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
will need installed manually when v8 is ready :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
find a stock rom that works for you and share it and i can try a port :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
its by location, if you ran box through a vpn to usa or uk it would appear :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Markk820:
With V7 remote not working correctly….so where can i find v4??
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
can try v4 here https://mega.nz/folder/Ke50xQQZ#ThYDiWM2kCnHL9997q5Z-A
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] eagledipesh:
Ohh got it thanks, not sure what could google achive by doing that?? Why not activate it for all
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pnbr0014:
I'm very excited for V8. Literally the only thing missing from this for me is SPDIF support. I installed on AX9 Max. With S905W chip and 2gb ram. I used the standard version of the rom without any wifi chip displayed and that seems to have worked. I was able to pick up wifi.

I forgot to note the wifi chip bit i will once I'm back home and able to open the box again. Aiden can you confirm if the next update will fix spdif output?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] elemenopi:
i have the FN-Link 8223A-SR i think it has its wifi and bluetooth both inside this chip.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 4llerbuntu:
@aidanmacgregor hello

I wonder if you could surface the settings for Private DNS for the next version of the ROM

Hoping there's a way that's possible......

Thanks for your work
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pnbr0014:
Hey @aidanmacgregor I checked my wifi chip and its SV6051P the funny thing is that I saw that and I tried to install the rom with that chip stated on the file name and that one would not flash at all. it failed at writing the very beginning at writing bootloader I Think but I used the one without any stated chip and that seems to work. also let me know about the SPDIF :) Happy coding!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
not sure tbh, its annoying though
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
i doubt it, i dont have any spdif devices to test this functonality :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
all i an suggest is try other versions :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
im not sure how this would be acheived
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
try flashing over your currently installed one but unselect "overwrite bootloader" in the usb burning tool, this might work, not sure though :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pnbr0014:
well wifi works either way haha so i'm not complaining :P just thought you would want to know.. As for the SPDIF though. I have 2 more questions and also a suggestion.

1. does the 7.1.2 firmware have it working?

2. Is there a rom customization tool compatible with android 9 that might enable me to include the drivers.

Also suggestion. I noticed that when the SPDIF is working the light inside the port itself is on constantly. on your rom when the device boots up the light turns off during boot and changing the SPDIF settings doesn't affect it at all. maybe you could use the light as an indicator as to whether its working or not?

I would really like to help with this issue surround sound is very important to me haha. I'd be happy to test any of your tweaks for you in this area. I have seen some people in previous posts in here mention that V4 maybe was working? I don't really know anything about how drivers work in android but maybe there is something there that could be ported over?

Bruce.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lolwatpear:

No Wifi (maybe aidanmacgregor can take the wifi files from the 5. [v7.1] Aidan's Rom [S905X3] (TX3).img) and added to 1. [v7.1] Aidan's ROM [S905X3] [ATV 9] (H96 Max X3) to make it work with X96 max plus 2
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pnbr0014:
I was wondering the same thing. I have a 1440p HDR gaming monitor and I tried testing the box on that but youtube does not show any HDR settings in the app I have not tested any on device HDR files through VLC though. streaming services don't seem to show HDR content at least not on my box.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] eagledipesh:
You are right, I used a VPN just to try it, they have integrated some ads its really annoying.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pnbr0014:
hey guys I've come across another problem. I wanted to flash another rom but for some reason now my reset button is non responsive I can't hold it down to go into recovery and when I press it to connect to the amlogic burn tool it connects for a second then disappears. any work arounds for this?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] asegura074:
it happend to me with my x96 max i had to do a short in the flash just like a brick recovery
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] asegura074:
@gorillaz_gr wich version did you used?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pnbr0014:
I actually figured out another way! you have to set up USB burn tool import the rom and press start. Once you do that then you plug in the box. the software catches the box at the right moment and the installation proceeds as normal. no need for reset button or any shorting of pins
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] pnbr0014:
@aidanmacgregor I'm really sorry man I just realized I was posting in the wrong forum for my device. thank you for responding though I'll move over to the proper one.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Hardstylez92:
this firmware has ota updates because it appeared me a notification to do android update

HI, i tried to install on my M8s pro l (lb version) with the image " aml_upgrade_package_s912-pie-beta2-lpddr3-3G-BCM4335-100".

After installing, it goes in boot loop. Installed over Burn_Card_Maker. I don't have this usb cable.

Is it the only way to install the rom with the usb burn tool?

Hope someone can help

could you put this remote? for s905w SV6051P https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-Xor5pd4AEXjKhhWTQsMUW2tgWOsBgkQ/view?usp=sharing
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Remo1999:
Yes, that is the same remote. It should work with nexbox brand android boxes.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Remo1999:
Another thing I want to share. I recommend changing the default launcher on these Android boxes. Recently Google have been forcing ads on all Android TV devices. Since the ads are intrusive, they hog bandwidth and cpu resources, causing streaming disruption and decreasing performance on these low spec devices.

I recommend Wolf launcher or Sideload channel launcher 3. You also need to install launcher manager app for a no fuss switch.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] asegura074:
delete
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
i specifically left in an older version in my rom, so you have the option to downgrade to the stock one (before ads) and disable updates in google play store :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
Burning tool only way :)

Hello. I apologize in advance for my English. I have mxq pro 4k s905x 2GB 16GB (rtl8723bs) I am very impressed with how fast everything works. well done. I only have a few small problems. I have an android keyboard and on all previous firmware it was possible to use the AltGr + Tab key combination to switch between windows, i.e. between open applications and thus turn them off, kill processes, this is not here, unfortunately, it does not work. second thing, bluetooth doesn't work. I was using ps4 to bluetooth and everything worked, unfortunately there is a problem with the connection here. he is not there at all. can you do something about it? Thank you and best regards
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 4llerbuntu:
V8

We want V8 A10 Aidan's ROM. 😃😃😃😃
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] paczekgrubas:
very funny. the system is super fast and the lack of bluetooth is the only problem. Maybe this driver can be recorded somehow?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 4llerbuntu:
I thought the Bluetooth was just my own box....

I also don't have working Bluetooth on A95X F3
