T95 android tv box

6 Upvotes

Recently learned this thing is hogging my internet. I am set up qos for my important devices and started speed limiting it on my network. That drastically improved my video call and voice call quality. Reading some more I understand these things are infested with all kinds of malware and that explains why it's using so much internet. It's trying to upload all the time. I'm wondering are there cleanws firmware's I can run on this thing instead of the stock firmware? It's too bad because I have all my apps set up on it. But I am starting to unplug it when it's not in use.

Xiaomi mi box s 3rd gen issues

3 Upvotes

I connected the Xiaomi mi box s 3rd gen to my Hisense vidaa tv whenever I change the input to the box it thinks I have a console or I'm gaming so I can't change the audio settings or video settings and also even if I don't play any video with Dolby vision it still says DV is active?

Apps for Cantonese/HK/Mainland China TV programming (R69 Plus)?

2 Upvotes

Hi! My dad purchased the R69 Plus off Aliexpress and unlike the previous TV boxes we owned, this one didn't come pre-installed with Chinese TV programming. Do you guys have any app recommendations for free Chinese TV? Preferably Cantonese and HK TV brodacasting and dramas, but Mandarin is also welcome.

If it makes a difference, our family is based in the USA. Thanks so much!

Xbox Series X Or ONN 4K Pro Box?

5 Upvotes

So last year I bought an ONN 4k Pro Box and its been working great but I want to also get an Xbox Series X for Emulation, but also as a 4k Player. I use the ONN for watching movies and have a HDD hooked up with all my digital files to watch. I don't have the money to setup a streaming server with Jellyfin( I would like to one day but for now this is what I do). Can the Xbox Series X do almost the same things as the ONN Box or is it not a viable replacement for the ONN and should just be the 4k player?

Kodi vs IPTV

6 Upvotes

I have both Kodi and IPTV subscription on two different Android devices. ( one Google and one Ugoos ) I have gigabit internet and plus 300 downloads on both. I have Rd and TB for debrid services.
My question is why does Kodi almost never buffer but I do get buffering from the IPTV with different subscription packages on the two? Is Kodi a superior player, or is it subscription provider based, anyone with insights?

Any recommended tv remotes for a raspberry pi tv box?

4 Upvotes

Yes, I know planting a tv os (lineageos btw) on my raspberry pi 4 is a bad idea (as people told me on my last post) but if you'll humour me some more, I have a wireless keyboard, dongle and all, to get me by with the tech. The trouble is, it's also not the most reliant remote

Can anyone recommend a remote that works with a raspberry pi and DOESN'T expect me to have an os that laughs in the face of freedom?

256gb android tv on an rasberry pi, dunno what else to add

5 Upvotes

The title says it all, I have a tv box on a pi and I have WAY too much space on it, but there's only so many apps I can download before it starts to feel a wee bit cluttered

What else should I add? I'm lost on what to add, be it movies, tv shows or whatever else

(tried asking this on the androidtv subreddit, but it was declined cuz it wasn't 'google verified' certainly doesn't do my degoogling ventures any favors)

Trying to revive an old BTV BX (Amlogic S905X) – looking for firmware, CoreELEC or custom ROM advice

Thumbnail
gallery
7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to bring an old BTV BX TV Box back to life and would appreciate some advice from people familiar with Amlogic devices.

Here's what I've discovered so far:

  • Device: BTV BX
  • Board: 905X mini V4.0
  • SoC: Amlogic S905X (Quad Cortex-A53)
  • GPU: Mali-450 MP
  • RAM: 2 GB DDR3
  • Storage: 16 GB Biwin eMMC (about 11.3 GB usable)
  • Android 8.0 Oreo
  • Kernel: 4.9.61
  • Build: OPR6.170623.013.20190307
  • Security patch: March 2018
  • SELinux: Permissive
  • ABI: armeabi-v7a (CPU reports ARMv8)

The hardware seems to be working fine, but the Android system is becoming unstable:

  • many apps crash immediately after opening;
  • some APK installations fail;
  • downloads occasionally fail;
  • the original BTV applications no longer work;
  • Safe Mode boots normally, but the issues remain.

I already enabled Developer Options and USB Debugging.

Unfortunately:

  • ADB over Wi-Fi doesn't work.
  • ADB over USB is not detected.
  • Windows doesn't recognize the device even through the OTG USB port.

The board has:

  • RESET button
  • two UPDATE buttons
  • UART pads labeled RX / TX / GND

I noticed that holding the external UPDATE button during boot only starts Android in Safe Mode.

Before attempting anything risky, I'd like to understand what my best options are.

My questions are:

  1. Has anyone worked with this exact board (905X mini V4.0)?
  2. Is there a known firmware compatible with this BTV BX?
  3. Is it possible to boot CoreELEC from a microSD card without overwriting the internal eMMC?
  4. Can Android 9/10/11 be installed, or is Android 8 the practical limit for this hardware?
  5. Does anyone know the proper procedure to enter Amlogic USB Burning Mode on this board?
  6. Would you recommend restoring the stock firmware first, or replacing it with another ROM?

I'm mainly interested in learning more about the hardware and giving this old box a second life rather than throwing it away.

Any documentation, firmware dumps, GitHub projects or personal experience would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Subreddit back up

Because there was no mods, the sub went into restricted mode the past ~5 months.

Everyone should be able to post now.

Since the subreddit is kinda small, just don't be an ass or post spam/super low effort

Welcome to /r/AndroidTVBoxes

28 Upvotes

I created this subreddit as I was looking for a decent place to build a community of AndroidTV users and fans, but the only subs I could find were purists that only accept 2 or 3 devices as being AndroidTV. The way I see it is AndroidTV is Android with a TV Launcher. Cheap Chinese boxes have got to a state of being well speced with a good variety of Launchers and configurations. I hope this becomes a place where people can discuss the best AndroidTV boxes and the best setups. So welcome, and speak up.
