[ROM] Beelink GT1 / Alfawise S92 TVStock Nexus ROM (Android TV 6.0)

Many of the premium video apps won't run without Widevine Level 1 support, which this box will never have. If you have a situation where the same app runs successfully on the OEM firmware but not on mine, please let me know and I'll investigate.

Hi Magendanz,
new to the game , like your rom very much, about Amazon prime vidéo App, it does run with OEM firmware and Superceleron V8C (not ATV)
I have extracted my app from same box , on Android TV app launches Ok but stops whenever you start watching a movie. App must be blocked by Android TV OS or device type ?
Many thanks

I have now ported the TVsettings.apk from mi box so Bluetooth is handled properly for android TV. everything is fully working, this means that the settings.apk can be removed now as its only real use was for Bluetooth. Its also not part of ATV as its for phone / tablet.

my Bluetooth devices now connect at boot without having to pair again and my headphones have a few issues resolved.

Will post it later on.

Thanks

Post logcat after it fails its the only way to know what's happening.

I think amazon prime video is exclusive to shield TV on android TV. You would need to ask on the form in xda for someone to pull the TV apk for you then possibly need to alter the checks like I had to do for iPlayer.

I sold my shield TV now so no longer have access to the bundled apps

I was screwing around trying to get Widevine L1 working with some private keys that I'd obtained for other hardware, but it didn't work. You'll notice that in the last release that I'm back to the original OEM L3 libs.

I was reading the other day that Google CHROME has an extension to download that allows Chrome to install Widevine L1. Wouldn't that mean that you can install Widevine L1 on an AndroidTV box, despite the unlocked bootloader that IS NOT supposed to be able to have WideVine L1 installed?

That would be interesting, since it defies what I've learned about Google’s Widevine DRM provisioning model. I believe that the private keys in the “device keybox” must be flashed to the crypto store in the chipset at the factory (or by Amlogic's Customization Tool), and this is so they can't be read. (If functions much like the private key in a SIM chip). Anything that can be publically downloaded would be vulnerable to hacking, and once you've got the private key you can spoof that device's idendity.

Was just looking at the mibox build.prop and noticed these are not in our build.prop regarding widevine and DRM.

(Under # Enable player buildin)

media.amplayer.widevineenable=true

adding that might help with amazon video, not looked into them so just putting it out there.

[tillaz87]

Also noticed the below is changed to false in mibox, after a bit of reading turning it off apparently has benefits. might still apply to amlogic if Xiaomi have done it in recant build.

ro.app.optimization=true

to

ro.app.optimization=false

Edit:

And this which we are missing, we use the value 196610 as our device reports OpenGL ES 3.2 this must still apply as its in most build.prop

ro.opengles.version=196610

Removes Settings.apk as it was only there for bluetooth. its all handled in TVSettings.apk now, like its supposed to be.

I don't believe this is actually true. There are functions like screen cast, multi-user, hotspot, VPN and others that are only configurable from Settings.apk. Admittedly, these aren't mainstream functions that will be used daily, but I like retaining access to them.

Also, drm.service.enable=true was included in my build.prop. I guess you just missed it.

Its not part of stock android TV.

Multi user can be accessed via TV settings
Screen cast doesn't work for me but why cast something already on the big screen ?

anyway it can be kept if desired ether adding code back to the preferances.xml or adding the icon back via manifest and launching from app drawer.

I think you might want to consider starting your own thread with your own custom ROM, tillaz87. You're taking a bit more minimalist approach to your ROM design than would be my choice. For example, some of the APKs that you suggested I remove earlier have prevented me from using the Xiaomi Mi Box Bluetooth remote that I just received, and I'm pretty convinced that as soon as I remove Settings.apk that I'll find some good reasons for putting it back.

While I agree that some of these elements aren't part of stock Android TV, my goal isn't to reduce functionality or compatibility. I want the best of both worlds.

What apk's ? Bluetooth devices should pair like normal without additional apk. plus I've not removed anything that's in the mibox stock firmware as that's what i'm comparing against
so it would be strange for the remote to need something that's not in the firmware it ships with. I have paired xbox controllers, amazon tv remote, headphones without issue

Like i said thought i can add settings back, if not that's fine. what i post is for anyone here that's interested. and most is backed up with proof. you dont need to include it.
but everything i removed really has no use.. other than settings.apk which i can see might want to be kept.
