Hi there, I’m not sure if you’re still having issues with this device, but here’s my two cents:

Instead of tapping on build number, look one level up, towards the right. You’ll see a status button. Press status, and then scroll down to where you see the build number at the bottom. Tap that until you become a developer.

Also, take a note of your build number. Google your build number along with your device model number. It should take you to Umidigi website where they offer a flash tool and the latest firmware.

Make sure this firmware matches your current build number.

Download this firmware, it will be an RAR file. Once it’s downloaded, use an appropriate file manager to extract the boot.img file.

This will be your kernel that you can modify with magisk manager to flash via fastboot to gain root access.

Before you’re able to flash the IMG file, you’ll need to unlock your bootloader. This process will void your warranty.

Now that you are already a developer, go into developer settings, and enable USB debugging.

Once USB debugging is activated, you may connect your phone to the computer. Approve any request to trust the computer.

THIS PROCESS WILL FACTORY RESET YOUR DEVICE. BACKUP ANY AND ALL DATA THAT YOU WANT TO KEEP. I’M NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU LOSE DATA OR BRICK YOUR PHONE.

Use the following commands through ADB:

ADB devices

ADB reboot bootloader

Fastboot devices

Fastboot flashing unlock

(If that doesn’t work, try “Fastboot oem unlock”)

Fastboot reboot

(now you’ll need to speed through the set up process, don’t bother putting in any actual information. You only want to go into settings and re-enable developer options, and re-enable USB debugging.)

ADB devices

ADB reboot bootloader

Fastboot devices

Fastboot flash boot “directory of magisk boot img on pc”

Fastboot reboot

And voila! You’re unlocked and rooted. I’d personally do another factory reset and then start fresh. Enjoy.

Sorry, there is a way to have the play store app working for phones, because everything is almost impossible to install. or does it exist in custom firmware? thank you

Recently purchased this after connecting to the wifi I am now currently getting a black screen on boot up. No idea what the problem is. Anyone have any ideas?
[Device Reviews and Information] Jupit3r:
Maybe you can try to download the play store app on apkmirror and install it directly.
[Device Reviews and Information] okwhateverok:
You could use lucky patcher to install play store but you will need Magisk module for full support.

Maybe you should enable install from unknown sources in the settings menu and check the development options...

There are many complaints actually about the firmware on this box, hope there will be an update soon..

Hi I have the GT-King II like in this post, it is still stuck on Android 9, which find a shame, as I love the Box, and Have been on Bee Link site I cannot find any Firmware updates past 2022, if any has a link for Android 11, could they please post it for me, and a Guide how to update Firmware, Many Thanks to those who chose to reply...

[Device Reviews and Information] cleverdicky:
Hello, my gt king II has been playing up for a while now.

I've checked out several forums, especially beelinks and the last firmware they publish is dated 2022. Although in some individual posts they have provided links to newer updated versions, depending on serial numbers.

Ive tried to register & post but their crap web log-in is as buggy as their firmware.

No idea why they dont provide an update, i presume because they have made so many hardware changes and need to be quite specific.

As for my own I would be happy to try a slimrom or alvatech version but cannot find anything for the ' king 2. Has any one here found a solution ?
[Device Reviews and Information] brad62249:
I have had this device for a bit now. Contacted Beelink about an update around last June. They emailed me back with the updated firmware and directions and videos on how to update the unit.

Their customer service is 2nd to none. Can't wait until early summer when the newest Amlogic CPU is released....

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] rbarreiros:
After this last update made OTA, with Pixel Experience Plus on a Xiaomi A2 (Jasmine_sprout) always gives the error "This device isn't supported and phone calls may not work correctly", always rings when receiving a call, most of the time it doesn't ring/calling tone when placing a call, and when it does, the volume is excrutiating loud and can't lower the volume anywhere I searched. Also when talking, the volume is way over the top, and the volume setting is always hit & miss, when most of the time doesn't save the last call volume, and the volume is no linear with the slider, up until 10% it's manageable, after that, it's incredibly loud regardless of the slider value.

For everyone, if you have problems after an update, reinstall as if it were a new distribution, with data backup and factory reset and following the installation guide exactly (the android stock installation in my opinion can be skipped).

Beware of false expectations of battery life.

In my case, from Android Stock up to Android 13 the battery life has always been the same, about 4 hours of continuous use and about more than 1 day not in use.

Then there might be an incompatibility between Android and some app (maybe not updated to the new Android), in which case you can try suspending or uninstalling the various apps and see if anything changes.

Hi.

Phone call volumes, even at minimum, are too high.

Is it possible to have a zip file to use in adb sideload to update just the mixer_paths.xml file to lower them?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mlito:
[CODE]<path name="handset">
<ctl name="EAR SPKR PA Gain" value="G_3_DB" />

<ctl name="EAR_S" value="Switch" />
<ctl name="EAR PA Boost" value="ENABLE" />
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="100" />
<ctl name="EAR PA Gain" value="POS_6_DB" />

I think this is the part of the "mixer_paths" file, I see that 100 value is excessive

Yes, some also say 'EAR PA Gain'.

It would be handy to be able to change those values, for example, from the developer options, adb sideload, etc. .

I'm going to lower that value to "90" and I'll let you know how it goes.

To my knowledge only the developer can do it, or you have to 'root' Android, or the user right after resetting all the data and flashing Android.

Once you start Android, the system is read-only.

P.S. I do not want to 'root' Android.

I really appreciate your work on keeping active support for this device. The only issues I've found in my usage is with calling and the one time I used google meet on this phone. The calling has improved a lot compared to the android 12 pixel experience rom but I think it is still a bit too loud with occasional echoing, as for the google meet for some reason it couldn't differentiate between the main phone speaker and the one for calls.

I have set volte and vowifi by carrier, still not working. But it works with Vodafone (different carrier). However, Turkcell (main carrier) volte and vowifi do not work. Usually this problem is solved by editing EFS files with QPST tool on Xiaomi devices.

The problem is that it cannot be edited even as root.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] gius db:
With Android having read-only filesystems I don't think there's an easy way to do this.

Probably the developer would have to create a '''fake'''' Android update just to be able to do that.

For example Android 13, 13.1, 13.2, etc., and 13.0.1, 13.1.1, 13.2.1, etc., as a file update.

I think it becomes too complicated to manage.

Maybe you can update the file right after you do a factory reset and install Android, before booting it (after the system is read-only).

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] gius db:
From what little I can understand, it's an Android 13 bug, so you have to wait for google to fix it.

You can probably avoid triggering the bug by charging the phone before it drops to 30%, or by charging it when it's not in standby or locked.
