[Sasvlad]

[ROM] Ugoos X2 CUBE ATV by Sasvlad v.0.0.8 (AndroidTV 9.0)

Update: [ROM] Ugoos X2 Android TV by Sasvlad 0.3.6 (Dualboot and SingleBoot)
it works on X2 CUBE, PLAY and PRO

Dear friends, I present to your attention my new hybrid for ATV lovers.
Many thks to UGOOS for sending me the Machine.

Based on stock firmware Ugoos X2

---

Why a hybrid? Anyone familiar with my ATV in past boxes knows, that I'm trying to combine both camps of amateur / opponents of AndroidTV. This is another step towards the perfect firmware, which AOSP supporters will also like:

1. All the benefits and convenience of the AndroidTV interface for Remote Control are present.
2. For those who like to work with a mouse, there is a Status and a Navigation bars, imperceptible for those who love the Remote, not the mouse.
3. You can also use the browser. An alternative TV-Market is installed in addition to the reduced ATV Market.

To increase the speed of work, and also taking into account only 2Gb of memory, I deleted everything that can be done without.

[cholo12]

"Amlogic S905X2 / 4GB DDR3+64GB EMMC/2.4G+5.8G WiFi / BT4.2 / USB3.0 / HDMI2.1"

thanks

[ClarkKent]

Bravo!! Congrats! ....What a Contribution to FT viewers
...and I don't care for ATV? Twrp task need to begin before time allowance you say?
SAS, Will you be putting any performance efforts into the stock rom?

[abhifx]

I wonder if this can work on x96 max 2/16 varient. Wifi chip is different and this box has Bluetooth.

[Sasvlad]

It only works on X2 CUBE, PLAY and PRO. The firmware is repeatedly protected by the manufacturer from porting.

Bravo!! Congrats! ....
SAS, Will you be putting any performance efforts into the stock rom?

Yes, the firmware was very performance.

[ClarkKent]

It only works on X2 cube. The firmware is repeatedly protected by the manufacturer from porting.


Yes, the firmware was very performance.

I AM speaking of the x2cube (non-atv) as shipped. You have "clean" and tuned the stock rom?
** Your custom is NOT switchable between classic and atv is it?
TWRP ops must be started before 3 minutes, to defeat the security "exit"

[plikmuny]

Hi OP, here is the link to android 9.0 for T95Q android box. Can you Cook a custom firmware with necessary tools and patches with ATV version for us pls ?
here of the link to the firmware

https://dailyuploads.net/d7y4srfw3yc7

Thanks in advance

[anny12]

Can x96max be up?

[ClarkKent]

Hey guys! This is the X2 Cube thread for a custom ROM. Please don't ask for other devices. Either p.m. the developer, or look elsewhere in freaktab for specific device or chip work. Thanks. Remember to
"keep it clean baby"

[soldiaz]

HK1 Play not supported as well, right? ..

[251643711]

My x96 max brushed this into a brick, which master can be ported to use x96 max?

[mo123]

My x96 max brushed this into a brick, which master can be ported to use x96 max?

It only works on X2 CUBE, PLAY and PRO as per post #6. The firmware is repeatedly protected by the manufacturer from porting.
You will have to ask the manufacturer of X96 max to send you the stock firmware and instructions to flash your device, if not, you'll be stuck with a brick.
There is no support for your device and no one can or will port any other ROM to it.

Mainly because of this, so I hope to transplant.
