[tiesenhausen]

die gibt es jetzt auch von Minix. Ist also eine neue Prozessorrevision mit besserer Dolby Unterstützung

Wenn Sie diese TV-Box öffnen, sehen Sie dort das übliche s922 ohne j, h und so weiter

z. B. Das ist angeblich 922x-h in king Pro

Hello there,

I recently bought the AM6 Pro. Very happy with it!
Only there is one problem:
When I use Surfshark VPN the data with that connection is lost after a few minutes not using it. When I start using the connection straight away it keeps working, but as soon as I stop using it it will "freeze". When I reconnect it works straight away.
Tried different servers and countries with all the same result.
The apps that are wihitelisted (tunneling) are still receiving data. So the internet connection is ok.

When I use NordVPN there are no problems whatsoever.

Tried reinstalling the original ROM, but that has the same problems/behaviour. So no difference between this wonderful image from Sasvlad and the original one.

Does anyone have any ideas or the same problem?

Kind Regards

[Fazer1000]

Ok, it seems to be fixed.
The answer from Surfshark was:

1. Open Surfshark, and go to Settings.
2. Select 'Protocol'.
3. Select 'OpenVPN / UDP' option.
4. Connect again afterward.
5. If the network is disrupted again, try 'OpenVPN / TCP' option

The "auto" setting was causing the problems.
Not sure how and why, because my other Android box and phone have no problems with the auto setting.

For people that want to use AndroidTV firmware while also using Android phone OS,
this can come in very handy.

https://www.vmos.com/

You can switch to the Android phone OS with the full Google Play Store available
and install different launchers simply by opening the app, minimise the app and you're back into AndroidTV.

Run Android 5.1 phone OS in a virtual environment
Full access to the Google Play Store app
Easy access to root
Settings to add manual resolutions and DPI to Display Settings
Test new apps without them affecting your normal OS

Works best on 4GB RAM devices like S922x and RK3399.
It also takes 3-4GB storage space.

Very interesting, most definitely going to have to play with that, thanks for the info MO

[Romer]

Thanks Mo. I'll give it a try.

Does anyone have experience with gameing on the AM6 pro?

Looking to see what gamepad/remote works best for two player gaming.

I have two W1 remotes. I have not tested them.

Maybe a Playstation remote will be better though.

Thanks

Can I ask if your working on a dual boot atv version ? Praying answer is yes ?

If a stock firmware update dual boot appears, then maybe. Dualboot and Singleboot - these are two completely different non-interchangeable firmware.

You can check Logitech F710 or Sparkforce W60U550 gamepads since they are high quality and have good Android compatibility.
Old Xbox or PS3 remotes can also work, just not PS4 wireless ones since they only work on Android 10(in future perhaps).
If you need to remap keys, remember the Ugoos gampepad setitngs you can change too.
For some games you also need to map touch inputs for certain games then you can use Tincore Keymapper.
