OK, i tried that custom firmware for Mxq pro+.

Its working.
- Google Play store works
- Kodi works
- installed top and bottom bars
- pink screen (on old philips tv) is fixed, but you must enable it in settings "force RGB" (update still not working)
- WI-FI NOT WORKING
- Ethernet working
- Multitasking works
- CPU efficiency in kodi is improved

Overall much much better firmware.

Hi. Could someone provide instructions or share a link that shows how to root this box? This is the only box I bought that isn't already pre-rooted. Much appreciate it!

Just to inform you.

Good news for owners MXQ Pro + 2GB RAM 16GB ROM, WiFi 6330 module. Some Russian dudes on 4pda managed to compile firmware from Tronsmart Vega S95Meta.
Look at the bottom of the page.
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=723156&st=1860 (and use google translate).

I havent tried it myself, probably will tomorrow.

...
I have tried numerous modifications to build.prop in order to eliminate the "non compatible" error message when installing apps from Play store.
Unfortunately non of them worked.
Also market helper did not work.

I will continue looking for a solution.

I have solved this problem for me. I install "aptoidemarket.apk" (https://www.aptoide.com/). Then I run this application and I can install "WIFI speed test", which was "non compatible" for MXQ PRO+.

hmm , it's not hot at all when restartin occured

at least not on touch

[mrvanity]

just to confirm, for using adb to connect on box usb to usb cable is needed ?

never done that before, so forgive me for stupid question

mrvanity - does Your box restart without reason, myne every hour or so

and it's only few days with me

No you dont a usb cable

Use
adb connect IP (ex. adb connect 192.168.10.32)

The reboots might be from the overheating. Mine doesnt reboot (until now at least)

Thanks mrvanity
Do you know if that can be installed without root access?

I dont know, but i guess not.
Using this method is very easy to root

Does anyone know whether openelec or libreelec can be installed on this box instead of waiting for an updated firmware?

After i installed Kodi 16.1, i used this fix
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player-...-kodi-16-beta4

and kodi works very good.
(maybe you dont need openelec)

Also from Kodi forum iread that KOdi 15.1 works without any modification.Something changed after 15.2
(old version http://mirrors.kodi.tv/releases/andr...rmeabi-v7a.apk)
