MECOOL KM9 Android TV Voice Remote Amlogic S905X2 A8.1 4/32 Dual Wifi Fast lan BT4.1

Hi guys.

Just bought a KM9 from Gear*** and received it today.

Not the voice control remote :



Also had the bad surprise to see the ugliest launcher ever, a white page with few shortcuts and a big "KM9" logo with hour.

Few force close ootb, but Netflix was already available on installed apps. Resolution is not fullHD, propably 720p.

Will probably flash this box later to remove horrible launcher, i will not use Netflix on it (also have a Xiaomi Mi Box), i don't care of Widevine on KM9.

Will use this box with IPTV, nothing else.

I'll have Nexus builds based on the OPM1.171019.011 V0828.20181205 firmware within the next couple of days.

I don't have this tv box but the info from the GeekBuying blog is that is not suitable for MECOOL KM9 TV Box with voice remote !

thanks!

So if it is not compatible or if it is the "ugly" typical rom from Mecool instead of Android TV...i will stick wi the latest 20181122 firmware until some new info appears

Hi! This stock firmware is Android TV 8.1 version (included in the boxes with Voice Remote Control) or the regular Mecool Rom with it?s "ugly" launcher?

Thanks

Are you running Android Pie version? or the decemebr 20181205 firmware?

Thats on Pie version.
Do you perhaps know where I can get TWRP for the Pie version?

I have notice that SETTINGS crashed the box sometimes.
No other bugs found so far

Was using 2.0.8. Tried the 2.1.6 version, still doesn't flash.

I am using my homemade male to male USB 2 cable (thick cable, not sure the wire size), and connect to a powered USB 2 hub. The accessible front USB ports on my computer do not provide enough power to enable the burning. Also, if I am trying a different ROM that has a different bootloader, I enable the "erase bootloader", otherwise I don't. Occasionally, I find some devices that are stubborn, so I have to do the process several times, enabling and disabling the "erase bootloader" box.

I was running the USB burning tool version, 2.16, and it had difficulties, tried version 2.1.7 and it burned on first try with the "erase bootloader" enabled.

android 9.0 problem

Me 2 man. Only way I could overcome this was to tick "erase bootloader"
Then first flash fails at 39% , do it again and it works

atv android 9.0 rom wait.... thnks

These Amlogic S905X2 boxes seem to have a problem with SNR on the USB OTG port. When I first tried ripping the partitions from my KM9, it took a good dozen tries to get a successful read. Upgrading to a better quality braided USB cable with a ferrite core seemed to fix the problem for me, though.

Here's what worked for me: https://www.gearbest.com/cables-conn...298937892.html
