Hi guys, I need a little help. I m thinking on buy a new android tv box, because lack of official support and customs roms for my Tronsmart orion R68 meta (and sound issues...). But I m a little confused because there is lot of options that can see in the market. What brand, or proccesor (Rockchip? amlogic?) do you suggest? I m a maniac of customs roms, and I want to spend some bucks to buy a rom customizable android tv box.... Android, off course...
Another question: is important to search for an Android N (7.1) OS, or Android 5.1 is enough?
I use kodi, Spotify and some heavy android games.
What kind of feathures I must to search of?
Thanks so much!!!

[speedster_x]

not rockchip
next to my all other android boxes.. my favorites are my 3 nvidia shield
.. depends of course what you exactly mean by customizable..

but i think this is the wrong post for this question ..

so, let's go back to my question in post #91

[deadlock]

Thank for your work! It's so nice. I have just test with my ZD X6 Pro, wifi work (I was try other firmware before of other but wifi not work). I can using app Android TV Remote to connect and control X6 but voice search not work.

..referencing to my question in #91...

Sorry, which partition or partitions I have to check to install the image with twrp?
Uboot, kernel, resource, boot, recovery,...

When I was in twpr, the tv box power off suddendly.

Any other option to try?

You can't install a full image with TWRP. TWRP is only for back up and recover the backup, or flash single partitions, like boot, kernel, resource, system, data, etc . And TWRP has some power settings that turn of the screen after 1 min of no mouse movement. Just move the mouse and the screen will turn on again. You can change the screen of setting within the TWRP setting screen.

Hello Coolio! I have installed your firm. But when I try to install the "medieval keyboard addon" by ES file explorer, I have a message error that shows "Sorry test failed. This feature cannot run on your device". And I use a medieval keyboard.. what can I do to use this feature? Root my device? How I do it? Thanks!!!

It is not possible to install this system app keyborad app. Thats why I descripted to copy the whole app folder with the help of ES FileExplorer and activated RootExplorer ro the "/system/app/" folder. Root access is somthing nice if you know what you are doing. But in case you do not know what you are doing, root access cann scree up the whole system with just one wrong click. Therefore I will give no step by step instruction with pictures You have to know what you are doing. So make yourself familiar on how to get root with my ROM (that's for sure the easiest part). Then make yourself familiar how to activate the RootExplorer function of ES FileExplorer. Then copy the whole keybord folder to the "system/app" folder and change the permissions of that folder and its sub folders/app/lib files, to the same permissions as all other apps of the "/system/app/" folder have. Reboot once and select the new keyboard as default. DONE

Exactly, with the help of AndroidTool v2.3x your are able to erase also the whole flash, before you flash any full image file.

Without local admin rights you can't even install the mandatory needed USB driver. So no Flash tool like RKBatchTool or AndroidTool, to flash a full image, can be used.


The Zidoo X6 pro is supported out of the box. Because the Z4 and the Zidoo box have nearly the same hardware. Even the IR Remote is the same. Only a few keys are marked differently.

But these keys can be changed easily to your own needs. ( Redefine any Keyboard, Gamepad, Remote Control )



So the additinal Zidoo Kernel I offer is only an additional non mandotory option.
And any of those additional kernel & resource file I offer, must be flashed always after you flashed the full rom.

What kind of USB mic do you use for voice input?
I use one of these and it works perfect to me ( up to 2-3 m distance to the box): https://www.amazon.com/Super-Microph.../dp/B00M3UJ42A

But you can use any USB mic, even a build in mic of any USB web cam. With the build in mic of my LOGITECH HD Pro C920 web cam, the range goes up to 5-6m.

Erased and upgraded using android tools and same results. 36000 in antutu. I'm the only one with this bad results?
When the upgrade process finish, I unplug the power adapter and plug it again and then I power on the z4. Any other instructions?

I've added right now also a resource file (KRS_0.0.0_Z4-stock_resource.img) with the older settings of my V2.0 ROM. So better settings then Z4 stock resource, but already enhanced RAM and I/O settings but NO CPU overclocking (TURBO BOOST 1600) enabled.

Please flash only resource file "KRS_0.0.0_Z4-stock_resource.img" to my V2.5 BRE ROM to disable "TURBO BOOST 1600" then test again with AnTuTu, to compare the results. Then just flash KRS_1.2.9b_AP6335_resource.img again to re-enable TURBO BOOST 1600 and check again.

36K is pretty much the standard antutu score of the rk3368...

Witch version of antutu are you using?



PS: I have exactly the same yuntab z4 as you...

Are you sure? Because with stock ROM I had mostly 26k, sometimes 28k. With yabalar ROM and my own V2.0 I had mostly 30k in AnTuTu. Sometimes 32k.
But now with my V2.5 I have always 40k. Before staring AnTuTu I always turn of the Box for at least 5 minutes. Then I start the box and start also directly AnTuTu.

[jit18]

Yes... Definitely..

Antutu 6.1 scores:

Standard Rom 36K
Mo123 MM1.3 Rom 42K
Shomari Reboot Fix Rom 42K
Shomari Reboot Bug Rom 48K

The numbers are rounded..
