Hello, and thank you for this topic, it's my first Android box, so never had the opportunity to come to this forum.

I have 2 - 3 questions about Android box :

When I try to flash with USB Burning Tool, I have to uncheck erase-bootloader, if not it gets stuck at 3% on UBOOT and does not flash the box.

Is the bootloader lock? If so, is it possible to connect with fastboot for unlock?

Is a classic version (AOSP) of Android available for this box? I'm not a fan of androidTV.

A little trick, that I read (I don't know where, thanks to him), is to drill a small hole under the power supply to have access to the reset button of the box without dismantling it and to have access to the recovery without dismantling.

Thank you again

I drilled a hole at this point, The Picure may help you, will try to post them with scale when i get time

In Alternate
All u have to do is press the menu button on stock remote immidiately after swithching on the Box power supply, I t should get you into recover(sure woks for TWRP)

In case you chose to drill, be very Cautious and it is suggested not to use a mechanical drill. you might run through the power supply and ur box is a paperweight.

u may use a .2mm steel drilling bit (use larger if u are not sure where the gold is )
all u have to do is place it on the point were u want to drill
Then put pressure with ur index finger,
while doing that use your other hand to screw that clock wise, ull notice shreds of plastic lathing out
u may have to keep looking again and again until u c the button through black plastic casing.

U can notice even i got it .5mm far but it works for me with tooth pick & iam able to press it easily

and yes u that on ur own risk

Just unscrew the antenna bolt and disassemble the plastic piece, no risk of knocks to damage the box, I did it with a mechanical drill.

Doesn't work for me, that's why I did it like this.

Hello all

Has anyone tried to use static IP on Ethernet connection and with the latest stock firmware?

I can't get it to work on my box.
I'm not sure if it's another firmware bug or if I'm doing something wrong. But I set the same values on my other android box (Tanix Tx3 mini) and it works.

[usernamereg]

I installed the latest firmware by saslvad
(though I clarify that the RoM is excellent but since i did not chose normal erase as suggested by the developer and hence ended with lost device ID)
https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&s...ost&p=83691063

installed it through USB tool
I checked the full erase in erase flash option( correct option suggested is normal erase )
The box booted with " The device is not activated error and will shut down in 30 minutes"

the error is detailed in link below with a picture of the error I'm getting on screen
Plz read the post at "
https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&s...ost&p=82261408
"

Problem resolved with a little help from the developer Sasvlad, lesson of the day only 'Normal Erase' or the box will be a mess.

I hope we get the Android TV with netfllix and Prime in UHD too.
