[Cafpy90]

if you are on 1.4 then no you cant, but i also not sure it will work on that box, is a hit and miss

Hey SC,

got my TOX1, and unfortunately, your rom did not burn to that box .

So just an FYI

[superceleron]

You welcome!

[pixelview123]

It works flawlessly on Minix t5 Neo - but without RC . I tested all supercelron`s ROMs with Minix and i must say : Thank you !

Thabks for your reply. Worst case scenario i flash to a different rom after installation of yours!

Thanks again!

[superceleron]

This is what i anticipated SC, thanks for chiming in. With that said, can it be used on the tox? I very much like your work. Thanks!

well the fw 1.4 is not encrypted, only the uboot is protected i do the same on my work (we even have a special mod version of the flash tool).
Btw AOSP will never be ATV no matter what you do with it, you only making it feel like ATV but will never be real thing, no matter what custom rom you use or magisk you use.
The sdk's of both are very different, how do i know this?
Well i have access to all 3 google real atv sdk's for amlogic, A9, A10 and A11.
Anyway, this rom is old now, still ok to use but a bit old!

You can also use AndroidTV on v1.4 firmware.
No need to install old custom ROM's that have other bugs.
Just install the Magisk module and it turns AOSP into AndroidTV.
Manufacturers can't legally ship devices with AndroidTV if it wasn't licensed by Google and they also use AOSP and dual-boot, so the Magisk method is a workaround.

Thanks for that info. I've never done such a thing, is there a link for the guide?

I appreciate your input immensely.

Ah, this makes sense. Thanks for this information.

I hate aosp firnwares, it doesn't work for my usages.

I hope i get the 1.3 knowing this.

Again, thanks for the info.

If you stay on v1.3 firmware you can flash other ROM's.
But from v1.4 firmware, it is encrypted and you brick your device if flashing other ROM's, but you can restore it to v1.4 again.
(And people with other devices, if they flash TOX1 v1.4 firmware to their devices, they brick it)
I don't know why anyone would want to use a custom ROM as the stock firmware has hundreds of optimizations, video playback improvements and newer features that none of the custom ROM's have.

Hello mo123, that isn't correct.

Slimbox has a rom for this box, as well as other options exist on 4PDA. So please, do correct me if i am wrong?

Next, this js a 'generic' rom, meaning just that. Every box can be flashed via proper tools, so you've properly lost me.

Thanks

Has anyone installed this rom on GT Mini-a ? 4/gb ram - 64gb internal memory

Edit.

ok i installed it on this device first impression, good.
I thought HBO Europe would work but unfortunately it doesn't work like in any rom ...

thank you for your work


The device is: Beelink GTmini-A / Amlogic S905X2 / 4GB DDR4 RAM, SN: B95X

The firmware is encrypted to stop all the no name tv box companies from pirating it to make custom ROM's, so no other ROM's can be installed apart from the stock firmware.
If you need a new feature, you contact TOX and they add it to the next ota update.
The firmware is based on Ugoos X3 anyway as they provide the tv box for the Ukrainian market I read.

Hello SC,
Love your gt king rom!
With that said, is this rom compatible with the TOX1? It has great reviews and i got it coming in the mail, so i just want to confirm that this rom is compatible with that box
Thanks for all the good work!

TOX1 comes with it's own ota updates that are superior to any custom ROM's.
You can also install an ATV Magisk module to turn it into AndroidTV easily.

Yea, i am aware. It is a nice device

However, i would like to flash a custom option as i dont like AOSP android on a tv.

With that said, do you know if this rom is compatible?
