What I did? This:

1. Copy update to SD and put it into Box.
2. Open .img in USB Burning Tool.
3. Connect Box through USB male to male - for me Tool found USB3_something device.
4. Push reset button using pin for 5 seconds - Box was found again.
5. Click Start button - the flashing should started.
6. Connect it to TV.
7. Boot it and set account, WiFi, time zone, etc.
8. Reboot to TWRP - power off and than boot using reset button.
9. Flash update.
10. Let it boot.
11. Reboot to TWRP again.
12. Flash MAGISK.
13. Boot.

That's all.

Didn't have time to test v1 and as it seems that most problems are with 4K resolution I won't have them as my TVs are all FullHD max. However some apps are missing in ATV Play Store - e.g. Solid Explorer...

Hi! first of all thank for ur support, and special thanks to superceleron for their work, i have a problem triying flashing the OTA by TWRP, it freezes in updating system partition... any suggestion?? Thanks!

Hey I thought I'd try this rom, just got it downloaded everything went smoothly with the installation and update. It's working pretty good so far, thanks to the developers and beta testers.

Rom is working great im on V7A, i have S32-V6 ddr3 H96 pro+ device. Nova launcher is my main launcher, temperatures are ok.
If i may ask, is there a way to stop autohiding navbar, to stay permament on screen?

Thank you for the great work superceleron just a few thoughts/questions:
- I don't see the sound volume being controled by the remote control, is it a problem of my box or Android Tv is like this?
- I've used before an USB stick and keyboard in order to type and use a mouse, I don't think this have the modules compiled to make it work, do you have the sources thar you can share of a valid Kernel so I can play around? (I found a packed file with keyboard HID modules, I will give it a try to fix this for me)
- I see why you have included FTMC, but it's not fully Kodi compatible, if I run wizards like "No Limits" will fail. Is there any newer version fully compatible with Kodi Krypton?
Thank you very much!

A1. It worked fine for me. And basing of previous comments, it should work.
A2. -
A3. Don't think so. 16.2.31 seems ot be latest available.

[superceleron]

1º all ok here
2º well search the web and you will find it!
3º ye i know im going to leave out FTMC in my future builds(not rockchip since is still the best for that devices).. i have a 17.6 FTMC but is still in tryouts and due to my lack of time i dont touch it in 1 month now...!!

Anyone uses Plex?
I don't have any sound in it. (either Dolby Digital AC3 or DTS)
Mediacenter player also has no sound playing from DLNA.
Youtube has sound.

Thanks for the reply @Superceleron,
I've also made another test, I've added an usb audio card with a microphone and I can now dictate and google interprets it nicely. I will try to play around with google assistant.

I've searched about it and see the plex issue is known. (I like the Android TV interface but on normal android I was able to use an external player for plex to make a workaround for this issue, The Android TV version don't have this setting ) Searching for a solution.

Other problem I have with my box is that the wifi speed has problems (with stock 7.1.1 the same issue before)
With a 390Mbit connection (2m from AC866 router) it only able to download max 30Mbit/s on TCP.
Anyone has the same issue or is it only a problem with my box? (used Tamosoft client-server test with a pc connected with LAN to router as server)

Thanks !!! Feedback :

- SCV1 with USB Burning Tool : I've been afraid at the begining because the flashing process started but stalled at 7%. I tried on another USB port and it worked flawlessly.
- SCV4 by copying the whole zip file on a micro SD card, then install by TWRP. Dalvik cache reset then reboot. Fine.

Preliminary tests :

- Works perfectly with Plex
- Works perfectly with a HDHomerun (via Live TV as well)

So far so good, thanks !

temperdu you are saying that you can play AC3 by passthrough in Plex? Can you tell me what is the magic? I have to edit com.plexapp.android.xml in TWRP to disable AC3, EAC3 to force Plex transcode AC3.

Hi All,

How does one add your own Apps to the home screen under APP's? Like Netflix and Stremio etc.

Oh and after the flash i do not have Eth connectivity anymore, only wifi.

Thanks.

[ch3mn3y]

In Android TV Lenaback Launcher, if the app is TV compatible, than it should be shown on the list. And You can only change the order of the shown apps.

I have the same issue with plex, some sounds formats work but not AC3.

Did you find a fix for this?

It depends what you mean fix. If you just want to hear audio no matter what than yes. Passthrough is another story. For that is workaround with Plex for Kodi.
