[ROM] Beelink GT1 Standard & Ultimate Android (7.1.2) ALVATECH (Both 6255 & 9377)

[mh1983]

Long time fan of this rom and happy to see the forum's still active! It's a long shot but I'm finding my Beelink box is starting to freeze up more to the point where it's no longer responsive and I need to reboot. I did a factory reset of the rom on the box but the symptom still appears. Is it worthwhile to do a complete clean reinstall of the rom? Or is this symptom indicative of the box being on its way out?

I checked the CPU temps just to see if overheating might be at place. I see 62 degrees Celsius under load -- not the coolest but not at the point of overheating I would say. I hope I can continue to use the box for some time yet and would appreciate any feedback or suggestions. Thanks in advance!

It would be best to do an actual clean install, just to make sure there is not any other issues. I would say temps look good too under heavy load.
Thank you,

Appreciate you replying! I did the clean install in the end. I forgot that my recovery pinhole didn't work any more so I had to do the pin shorting method. Once I did that, I was able to reflash the rom using the burning tool. So far, knock on wood, things seem good. Will test it out over the next few days.

For extra peace of mind, I put a usb cooling fan under the box. Seems to bring the temps down by 5-10 degrees so hopefully that helps in the long run.

Thanks again! Really appreciate it.

A full day with my wife using the TV for remote lectures. No freezing or locking up, and temps top out at 55 or so. Happy to get more life out of this box on your awesome rom. Thanks again! Donation sent as a thank you.

amigo minha box é a Beelink GT1 709N0. acabei de instalar essa rom e a tela ficou verde ao iniciar.

[mh1983]

I spoke too soon. After a week or so, the box randomly freezes up again, despite temps being fine. Doing a full reinstall through the USB Burning Tool, the problem goes away for a bit, but then it comes back. No issues w/ flashing and no errors. I'm guessing it's a hardware issue at this point?

EDIT: All fixed AGAIN for a few months now. Turns out the box didn't like the laptop fan I plugged into the back when I thought cooling was an issue. Unplugged the fan and everything's been hunky dory since then!

If you read the entire first post you'll see I speak about SN and other ROM's for other GT1 boxes. It has links to the other ROM's for your box. Please always read the entire first post and you'll find your answers usually.
Thank you,

Hi Alvatech, i have installed your ROM and everything is working good but the CTSProfile validation. Is there any clue about it? First of all, i cannot do the step below because no SafetyPatch shows when searching:

• Next in Magisk Manager go to the downloads section from the menu, and in the top right corner in the search bar type SafetyPatch then download that zip file.

I have downloaded a SafetyPatch.zip from internet and instaled it but CTSProfile still false. I've already tested magisk hide and it's working. Netflix app still not updating...
Thanks in advance.

Sorry about my english...

All's working well in the ROM but I see a recent nuisance: i get a "Chrome stopped responding" message from time to time, even though Chrome itself is disable on the box and I use a different browser. Anyone have suggestions for how to address this? Not a deal breaker but just a minor nuisance that sometimes disrupts streaming in Netflix, for example.

Check your version of WEBVIEW in the Developer Options, might need to update to a newer version of Chrome if Chrome is the default Webview implementation, or with ROOT file manager update the webview.apk with a current version from Bromite.org - read carefully the instructions for Bromite-System-Webview installation so you don't brick your box if that is the only option.

[mh1983]

Appreciate your reply. Before I read this, I looked at the app settings and noticed some cache and data that could be cleared. I cleared both and I haven't seen the problem come back, but I'll keep this suggestion in mind if it returns. Thanks again!

Has anyone been able to get a bluetooth gamepad working w/ this rom? I'm in the market for one but wanted to make sure I asked here to see if anyone had luck w/ a specific model.

[ROM] Beelink GT1 Standard & Ultimate Android (7.1.2) ALVATECH (Both 6255 & 9377)


This is a nice clean ROM with some tweaks, GUI cleanup, Mods and some changes of the original GT1 ROM for both Standard & Ultimate TV Boxes.
I've always been a fan of Minix boxes so I pulled some components from the ROM and put together my own ROM.
Please read the entire post before asking questions. Thank you.

This ROM is for both GT1 Ultimate & GT1 Standard TV Boxes. This can be used for 16GB & 32GB Versions.
(There has been a lot of hardware variants so please read carefully.)
I put together a ROM for the newer GT1 Ultimate Boxes here, I also have another ROM for the GT1 Ultimate boxes with starting SN: LPN1 over here.

Best thing to do before flashing your box is to check which Build Version & Serial Number you have currently.
Firmware Build Version example 708N0 OR 709N0 (ending in N0) is for this ROM.
This ROM is compatible with (SN: AX12, A912 or G912, S912)

• Cleaned up Beelink's kernel from redundant scripts that I don't use in this ROM.

Excellent Alvatech, thank you very much for sharing your work with us. I was having problems with my RT-V S10 with the Amlogic S812 heart, after being bricked, I was only able to install the Alfawise S92 rom .... now I am super happy because with this rom for the Beelink GT1, it was great. Everything running perfectly .. I'm using the Kernel Audiotor and I left the command government of the CPU for PERFORMANCE. It was super fast and the temperature does not exceed 65 degrees. For safety I installed a fan to help with cooling. Hugs from Brazil !!!

Thank you very much for this rom. Made my 7092 32G 3 Beelink gt1 ultimate box usefull. I was ready to throw it away. Always had choppy video whatever I tried to play.
Just to inform that there are problems with the 2 ghz WiFi band were it doesn't show up. There were disconnections from the beginning. Also problems with the bluetooth connection. It works fine and steady though using the 5ghz WiFi band.

With bluetooth, are you referring to the stuttering during playback? If so, there's a zip file earlier in this thread that you can flash in recovery and it'll fix that issue.
