[ROM] Beelink Mini MX3 II / M8S II TVStock Nexus ROM (Android TV)

[tanzhuoning]

Sorry, I just didn't read the "IMPORTANT NOTE". After patching the QCA9377 updater, everything is OK.

Thanks a lot. Perfect work!

Now I just need the right TWRP.img-files for both boxes to make first of all a Nandroid-Backup of my existing Stock Roms before installing your custom roms. Which ones are the right ones to install?

Links to my TWRP builds for q201 (GT1) and p212 (Mini MX3 II) are available in this post, or you can pull them from the .img file (/tmp/level1/recovery.PARTITION) with the Amlogic CustomizationTool.

From what I can tell, this VPN problem is just a generic issue with the app bar (a.k.a. action bar) running on Android TV. Several apps (including Settings and Terminal Emulator) are missing their toolbar icons on the right and the Up (<) button on the left isn't working.

Hi Megendaz, sorry to be a pain, made any headway on this issue yet please?

[pinguy]

Really nice work. A bit of an idea would be to use Sony TV to spoof the PlayStore. I had ago at editing the build.prop. I can make the device show up as the Sony TV, but I am still unable to download apps such as the iPlayer. I think I need to also add the framework files.

Anyway. This is the build.prop edits:

Hi Megendaz, sorry to be a pain, made any headway on this issue yet please?

I spent a few hours trying to track this down last week. The action bar problems surface if either the android.software.leanback (FEATURE_LEANBACK) or the deprecated android.hardware.type.television (FEATURE_TELEVISION) features are enabled, which in turn sets Configuration.UI_MODE_TYPE_TELEVISION in UiModeManagerService.java. Unfortunately, I don't see a simple reference to UI_MODE_TYPE_TELEVISION in ActionBarPolicy.java that I can bypass, so I've got to keep digging.

[Stamp75]

Thanks to Magendanz for your ROMs !!!

A french friend has recently bought a T95N Mini M8S Pro S905X (m8spro) box at https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/New-T...670305568.html
This box uses 9082C Wif-Fi chipset

He first flashed COMPLETE ROM MINIMXIII-II_110M0_TVStock-20170319.img
and updated with update_MINIMXIII-II_112M0_TVStock-20170606.zip file.
At this step, Wi-Fi doesnt'work yet.
To fix 9082C Wif-Fi chipset :
-> Download WiFi-9082C.zip file -> https://mega.nz/#!pIFBiQqC!nxj48vPz6-5er7gM3XTGpCnWEF5evn1BLnK3DOlcKoM
-> Unzip files to put them on SD card or USB key
-> Copy these files on the box with root file manager (ie ES Explorer or X-plore File Manager) in folowing folders (Filenames are in bold) :
• /system/lib/9082xs.ko
• /system/lib/libhardware_legacy.so
• /System/bin/wpa_supplicant
• /System/bin/netd
-> Reboot the box to be able to activate Wi-Fi (His box works fine now)
/!\ Note: avoid to recover ancient files, prefer to rename them (ie: add "bak" our "sav" extestion); By this way, your can recover ancient files if this tips dosen't work
Note #2: You may give CHMOD 644 (Read-Write) premissions to folders and files before rename old files and copy teh new ones.

[professeur83]

Definitely the best firmware "stock tv android"
I use it every day and no problem of use.
No bugs and crashes.
Thank you again for the work

Thanks, Professeur!

Has anyone been able to get youtube to output 4k? If someone has, please how? I have a 4k TV but can only output 1080. Thanks.

[viciouslancer]

Guest how do I flash this with USB drive or SD card on to Bee-Link MX3-II?

There are two ways: You can flash the entire burn package (img file) from USB or SD card with Amlogic BootcardMaker or you flash the update (.zip file) in TWRP recovery or the Update & Backup app.

[pinguy]

For anyone interested I have made some tweak packs that install via TWRP recovery. It adds a few features and fixes some of the bugs I was facing.
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player-...android-tv-rom

The goal of the tweak pack:

• Brighten the screen so the details in the fur clothing is this music video are visible.
• Make this 4k 60FPS Youtube trailer run without stuttering (and to also be able to select 4K in the Youtube app).

Once all the tweak packs are installed and you let all the scripts in init.d run (can take up to 10mins) I can say I have achieved my goals (you may also have to wipe dalvik cache and cache partition so the installed apps get optimized).

With my tweaks added to this ROM, it runs butter smooth. I can even run PPSSPP with good frame rates.

EDIT#

Done a bit of fine tuning. It is as good as its going to be.

[pinguy]

Some of my default apps I am using:

• Gamesome Frontend or ARC Browser
• RetroArch (using these cores)
• PPSSPP
• ePSXe using libopenglplugin.so
• SMPC 17.1-Krypton
• Reboot Android TV
• Tv App Repo
• PuppetMaster.TV
• Aptoide

There are many more but this should be the main ones people will want.

I can confirm that this is working! I have T95X 2G/8G and I had to edit the image to get this working, it crashed when I tried to copy files with ES Explorer. Now if I only can find the remote config file and some instructions to make it working.

Can you please add those drivers to your next release?

[Guest]

Can you please add those drivers to your next release?

I could add the 9082C driver (.ko kernel module) and library (.so file), but the wpa_supplicant needs to replace the existing one...which I believe will disable wireless support for the other AMPAK chipsets. The better solution, I believe, is to put together an updater like I've already done for the Qualcomm QCA9377 chipset.

It would be OK with me if this is the only compatible way.

To fix your IR remote, try this :
-> Download the remote.conf file : https://mega.nz/#!wE0SiCTJ!-bWWEu6sU..._SpI-ipeCUSctg
-> Put it on SD card or USB key
-> Copy thise file on the box with root file manager (ie ES Explorer or X-plore File Manager) in folowing folders (Filename is in bold) :
• /system/etc/remote.conf
-> Reboot your box

Note #2: You may give CHMOD 644 (Read-Write) premissions to folders and files before rename old files and copy teh new ones.
Note #3: Trouble knowed with this box :
-> Use On/Off button to switch off your box
-> You may use 2 button to switch on your box (instead On/Off)
