I'll try this ROM and get back to you with the outcome.
Thanks and keep up the good work.

I just installed this rom, pretty much without guidelines, and i wonder now, since dates are not written, its all guesswork.
Are the Update, actually new, or simply an update to the original installation with regular m8s ii interface?
I would recommend dating file updates, so you can actually tell the difference, since right now the storage location has all files dated the same date, so hard to tell whether an update is out or not.
But now for the positive part
I really love the upgrade, but feel that the android UI is not hardware accelerated, could it be that the hardware libs are not really used? and the generic ones are in use?
I cannot tell since my box crash when i try to connect with ADB, and i keep getting "not authorized" info, and no window on box to approve.
So i cannot tell why it crash

Consider the typical filename: update_MINIMXIII-II_112M0_TVStock-20170606.zip
The build date is the last part (20170606), the variant before that (TVStock), preceded by the OEM firmware version upon which it's based (112M0 for the Mini MXIII II). The update_ indicates that it's an OTA update that should be flashed in TWRP or the Update & Backup app, not an Amlogic burn package (.img file) that you flash with USB Burning Tool or BootcardMaker.
ADB is disabled in the underlying OEM firmware on all these Amlogic boxes, and none of us have bothered to try to fix it because they're rooted.
I don't know what you're expecting for hardware acceleration, but we're just using the libs provided by the OEM firmware. Some like Superceleron have done more to optimize kernel performance by tweaking the init .rc files in the ramdisk, but I've just kept what shipped from the OEM.

the Shell worked fine in PRE-AndroidTV version here, so it cannot be the mini m8s II firmware, that had the shell disabled.
I had only the original firmware at that point, and since it crashes with a Android UI failure, i doubt this is related to OEM, since they did not make the Android TV implementation.
So bug or not, it is failing and not working due to missing functionality which is left unknown since i cannot login. Have not tried USB, but you need authentication as well here.
What i mean is when you look at the Android TV launcher it is stuttering way too much, and the hardware is not slow as is. Ive seen how it looks on Nvidia Shield.
Even KODI looks better with whatever graphics theme used.
I made many custom roms back then, upto Android 5 , then i quit the XDA scene, so i believe i am familiar with android structure and builds, and how a improper build.conf can make you run software rendering, unwanted, but it happensYet, i do not know, since i cannot see much, expect investigate the img files, that i did not want to spend too much on for now.

If sounds like you've got some network issues, but maybe that build fell victim to the make_ext4fs file permission corruption issue we were struggling with. It's just odd that no one reported it before you, since this update was released almost two months ago.

Seriously, though, if you have specific bugs or suggestions, I do want to hear them. Unfortunately, Marshmallow builds aren't getting much attention these days.

It was 4:30am at the time, and you were telling me that my work was crap, claiming major flaws that no one else has reported for two months. You implied that you were insulted with the lack of quality control, knowing full well that I'm just a volunteer without the resources of a software development company. My attempt at humor was a gentle reminder that I owe you nothing, and that your arrogant tone is not appreciated.

If you read your post to yourself youll see that you have lots of xda experiences with structures and one fact you missed. Is Thank you for your hard work. Not to mention your rude comment. (Hes allowed to joke as its his Tread and work. ) If you dont have any thing positive to add then just be silent. You have only had three posts on here and think maybe a trip to the main forum and a quick read of the Rules here will allow you to be here longer then if you follow this path.
Best Regards

BTW, I just flashed MINIMXIII-II_112M0_TVStock-20170606.img on my Mini M8S II, and everything was working just fine. No errors, WiFi and Ethernet working fine, and graphics performance was smooth.
By any chance did you apply the OTA update without doing a data wipe first? Per the release notes: "OTA updates are designed as incremental updates to be used AFTER the initial flash with the burn package."

How do you get the full Google play store? I seem to be only getting a very limited number of apps
