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

Yeah, when they updated the internals, AZW apparently decided it wasn't worth updating the label on the enclosure. You've got an Mini M8S II.

That said, I was unable to reproduce your System UI crash. I confirmed that there's nothing in the AMPAK updater that touches SystemUI.apk, so it seems unlikely that the update did any damage.

Can you explain to me the steps needed to reproduce the bug?

All I do is start it up. It happens every time.

When I flashed should I have "force erase all" in usb burning tool instead of just normal erase? Wondering if something lingering from old install?

I thought mine was s905x. in my cpu-z device tab it reads "MINI MXIII-II (p212)" but on the box it reads 'Mini M8S" Which thread should I be following?

I saw there was an update but when I wanted to download it it doesn't show. Not for the Mini MXIII II anyway.

Something odd seems to be going on with OneDrive. For now, you should be able to download with this link to the parent directory.

You mean the Mini M8S II, right? (There's a separate thread for the Mini M8S, which is based on the Amlogic S905.)


That means there's something in the AMPAK updater that's messing with SystemUI.apk. I have a Mini M8S II here, so let me see if I can reproduce the bug.

Okay, Live Channels is now updated to latest version...and the Google Play Store problem wasn't at all what I thought. Apparently, Google added a "feature" in v1.09.419 that hides the Live Channels app in the launcher if there are no channel sources available. This is a horrible UI design, which makes discoverability near impossible, but that's reality for now. What's really odd is that in v1.10.596 they even started ignoring the movie trailer channel provided in Google Movies & TV for Android 6.0 and later. When you upgraded from v1.09.419 the app would just DISAPPEAR from the launcher and the Google Play Store. Really, Google?!

Anyway, the workaround is to install another channel source like Haystack TV, Pluto TV, Bloomberg TV or the Weather Network TV. Once you do that, the Live Channels app will magically reappear.

When Amlogic eventually decides to fix their codec. Until then, just play any 4K video for a few seconds as a workaround. I haven't found anything more elegant yet.

firmware is too dark to watch videos in youtube...where will i find increase brightness option?

I replaced the logo.Partition (level1) and folder Logo_res (level2) from another ROM, which replaced the logo in Poweron and Bootup on the Amlogic Customization Tool, but still not on MX3 for TX5.

That the latest version of 7Zip? Mine works fine using a right-click and the context menu. You could trying adding a .gz extension, but you might just have one of the older format that's a BMP file.

It not latest version. I try again it with latest version.thank

I have the minim8s.

When I flashed the new update, I didn't get this issue the first boot but once I ran the zip in recovery to give me wifi and bluetooth I always the the following "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped." on each startup.

That means there's something in the AMPAK updater that's messing with SystemUI.apk. I have a Mini M8S II here, so let me see if I can reproduce the bug.

The Amlogic Customization Tool doesn't handle the new logo images that can be compressed with gzip, but you can still use it. Just unpack with the tool, open the bootup file with 7Zip to extract the bootup.bmp, edit it in Photoshop, and replace it in the original archive.

I can not open the file bootup with 7zip???
