Beelink GS-King X (TV BOX + NAS drive) Amlogic S922X-H 3.5 SATA Drive Bay Beelink GS-King X

I could not connect, everything is in Chinese.
In addition, the remote control constantly loses touch with the dongle. From 4 meters it becomes simply impossible to control the box. And through Bluetooth I could not connect.

I was able to scan the code with my Android phone and download the "WeLine_Android_v1.0.apk", which allows your Android phone to access and transfer files to the HDD on the GS. Once installed onto the phone, it runs in the background as "WeLine VPN. That app had an OTA update yesterday.

Beelink says they are working on an app to work with IOS, Linux and Windows.... Right now, I have to use "LAN drive" as my samba server on this device........

The stock remote does NOT work with voice....... HOWEVER, my favorite remote the G30s, works perfectly, including VOICE.........

I inserted Micro SD with ?oreElec, which was included, pressed System Switch, and got a black screen and nothing more ...

P.S. Wrong dtb was recorded on the SD. Corrected, it works now.

Yes, same here. Since I already had CoreELEC running on my GT King Pro, I just use that microSD card. I inserted the card, remove power and depressed the reset switch which is under a tiny hole on the bottom of the box, under the HDMI port. I reapplied power as I kept the reset button depressed for 15 seconds and then it booted into CoreELEC.

So, since you had issues also, I checked microSD card on my Windows machine, and everything looked good. I next copied the correct device tree from the running CoreELEC to the Beelink microSD card, but it still did not work. So, something must be wrong in the firmware that is installed on their card..

I will just reformat their card and reinstall CoreELEC from scratch....

Looking forward to you modded firmware..........

Edit 1: Just reformatted the included microSD card and ran a speed test..... It is kind of slow, so I prefer a faster card.... Here is what the speed test shows.

"Writing speed: 17.5 MByte/s
Reading speed: 20.3 MByte/s
H2testw v1.4"

This is the speed test for one of my microSD cards, for comparison.

"Pny 64GB
green/black
Writing speed: 44.2 MByte/s
Reading speed: 72.3 MByte/s"

Well presented, and good looking hardware,
Maybe a couple of Bugs/Quirks presently, should be resolved quickly as usual.
Maybe even a custom Rom or two, maybe more, this is going to be Fun

Hope you have see all the above with Specs and Video:
So let's have a look and see.

[clarkss12]

Good luck putting it back together.........

[trebor]

Good news and Bad news
The Bad news is: there is no Bad
The Good news is all together and doing what it should.
Do like the Style, colour and size of the case, sweet
Working well with K400 Logitech, not a remote kinda guy...

[Sasvlad]

Wow, I didn’t know that a fan was installed inside. It is not heard at all. The throttling test looks great.
Very interesting box: 3 in 1. It is a pity that the processor is not 2.2 GHz ...

[trebor]

Yer it does run silent not much noise at all.

[superceleron]

Hmm reminds me of the PS2 slim fan, quiet fans.

[trebor]

After a short session with screwdriver and 4 bottles of good Rye
The Box is back in action with no problems.

Remembering this is only a guide to how the current stock Rom is running fresh out of the Box
Future updates and Custom Roms will see more things happening.

You can get a bit of an Idea in the Video By Clarkss12 what its all about

Lets have a look see and a few test



Usual style Beelink launcher and A9 is A9 not a lot of difference there

The Connection to WiFi / Ethernet no problems here
The Supplied Remote work fine here..no problems with Voice, or other use.
The squirrel mouse is just as crazy
Logitech Keyboard OK

Power on to run time very quick after the first setup

I have a USB 5 bay enclosure by Orico. I was thinking of attaching a Beelink GT King to it as they have gone down in price. That would make it very similar to this Beelink product I think. Is it true that the Beelink GT King only supports HDD's up to 4TB as I have larger in my enclosure.

[trebor]

And so it begins first Custom Rom for the GS-king

don't forget to support the Devs

[superceleron]

well just got mine today, so i will be making a build of course from source.
I plan to add auto frame switching without the need of any app, and playready drm and some other stuff...
It should be my last public rom.
