You are talking to MartBios2k?

sorry, yes

Thanks for this ROM and your efforts @MartBiOs2k !
I hope you will keep working on this and newer firmwares too!
This ROM works great so far (after testing 3 days) but have some questions for now...
Bluetooth keyboard works, Logitech701 works, Moonlight App works (great!), Spotify (Connect) works, VyprVPN works, great!

- Is there a way to go to hamburger menu with the default remote control? I only get there with the mouse...not great although i set it to max speed.
- Also sometimes in some apps it is not possible to get to all the possible (clickable) positions on the screen with the left-righ-up-down buttons. It seems to got stuck in part of the screen and i can't 'tab' to another portion of the screen.
- When trying to open the Status Bar in android it's kind of trial and error, click fast twice or more...i don't know...i also need the mouse for that, i am not getting there with the arrow-keys on the remote.
- I can't get Anymote or Android Remote on my Samsung S4 to find the AndroidTV, Kodi works, but not the main menu. I got it kind of working through my TV and CEC, but not ideal i think.
- If connected to Ethernet AND WiFi it gives an exclamation mark in WiFi (and switches on/off) which disappears when ethernet cable is removed. Is it true that Wifi is faster?? I don't think so but i thought i read something lately about this box.
- I don't understand where the numbers on the remote control are for. I don't see where i would use them, would like to reassign them. Also i can't get to the alphabet when holding the button longer to make words.


Thanks again for your work and for sheding some lights on the questions above maybe!

My build is T5ZP0030 and the wifi is currently not working... . I saw 2 customs firmwares but in the description I don't see anything for the rgb fix. Do you think that if I deactive the Deep Color Mode I won't have any green splash screen anymore?

Hello, I have disabled Deep Color but I still have the green flash. Would you be kind enough to tell me how to solve this RGB issue please ? It is very annoying...

Wow thank you!!! The best rom for this box. My wifi was death! And now? Works perfectly!! PERFECTLY!!! THANK YOU MAN!!

Other than Sunvell, what brands of T95Z Plus devices have the 9377 WIFI Chip? I'm looking to buy one. Many vendors I've contacted, have no idea what WIFI chip is in their devices. Thanks.

Hello ZeroZorro,
I'm not sure about all you questions, but first it's an android box connected to your tv. there is no touch capability so you need to do it wil you air mouse like if you drag with your finger you should be able to get all menu and option from app you use.
for the remote, it do basic task, but you should get an air mouse if you want to play with no limitation. the remote can learn you tv remote so that's why # and other key is there to be mapper to you tv remote.

WARNING!!!

A question: I have installed supersu and now wants the Google Playstore root access!?? I've seen there are 2 Google Playstore installed. One with the name "PlayStore" and one with the name "Google PlayStore". The second is the original. The shortcut on the homescreen is the "faked" store... For me this is very suspicious. What's going on there?? Trojans??

I ask for a statement thank you!

I can't speak for the supersu but I spoke about the two Play Stores in another thread. I think every T95Z Plus device has two "Play Stores" in System Settings / Apps. One is called "Google Play Store" and other is "Play Store" under "P". The "Play Store" is v 1.0 and the "Google Play Store" is the latest legit version. Using the default launcher, only the "Play Store v1.0" app shows in the apps tray. But when using another launcher like Nova Launcher, you'll see both play stores in the apps tray. In my case with Nova Launcher, I disabled the "Play Store v 1.0" app and the "Google Play Store" still works fine. I'm not sure if the "Play Store v1.0" serves a purpose. Both work and will launch the latest version of "Google Play Store". Very strange.

Kernel need to be recompile but i'm not able to do that to add the option in the display setting. I don't have enough skill to play with dev and compile kernel.
BUT, you can try something. you need to create a fine called rgb_mode (a txt file from you pc) and add the number 1 in it.
remove then extension .txt it need to be rgb_mode
copy it into /sys/devices/virtual/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/
using root explorer then you should be fine. it could be removed or changed after a reboot i didn't try.

For this fix it will probably be included in a future firmware release from Sunvell but for the moment this is not included in my source

I've read that coulb the because you tv is too old and does not accept 1080p source, did you try in 720p ?

About the Anymote app, do you know which port is being used for the WiFi remote in your ROM MartBiOs2k ? And if i need a username/password to connect to the T95z+.
I ask because the app doesn't find it with the scanning function...
