    If the manufacturer can send me the kernel source code, then I can perhaps make a firmware for it too if it is indeed a RK3328.
    What about the Pine64's Rock64 RK3328 board??? Maybe you already your ported your changes and built a ROM for this device....
    If not...
    here is the link: https://github.com/a9rock64/manifests

    I just ordered a Rock64 version 3, should be here in 3 to 4 weeks, I know your busy, but it would be so cool if there was fresh ATV Pie ROM to install when it arrives

      Pine64 really need to update that SDK as it's so full of bugs and almost unusable.
      Most people couldn't even get their uploaded Pie firmware booted on Rock64 devices.
      No updates or activity for over 6 months for Rock64 Android in their forums.
      If they fix and improve things, I could try to make a firmware in future.

      Well that is because this ROM is only for MVR9 boxes or boards that have the same PCM configuration made by same OEM, it will not work with all RK3328 devices!
      I believe this is a clone of the device Mo123 has in this YouTube video https://youtu.be/EOG3G_tHJWk :
      Bqeel is just a trademark brand, they didn't make the device - so some people might have a device where this firmware works with a different brand name. BUT your device needs to have the same I/O port locations and the exact same PCB configuration for the ROM to work. Note* most firmwares are not universal just because the devices have the same CPU/GPU, ok!

        The video shows the correct device, same one I use the ROM on.

        For wolfsstolz
        The MVR9 uses high-speed DDR4 RAM while most H96 devices use DDR3 RAM which will cause all kinds of issues, freezes or non-booting as I mentioned in the opening post. There are also more than 5 different H96 devices with different hardware inside which makes it a nightmare to find the correct firmware to work. Some H96's are even cheap RK3318 devices clocked at 1.0/1.1Ghz but advertised on Aliexpress and other places as RK3328 devices, best to avoid as you won't know what you'll get.

        The firmware uses RTL8723BS wifi and bluetooth.
        Your device uses a different wifi chip HS2734C, bluetooth and ir remote, so those things won't work correctly.
        There is no Android 9 twrp yet.

                    For me the firmware that worked was RK3328_DC_H96_Max+_HS2734C_9_20191031.2215.img
                    I remember that I open rthe box to have a look at the hardware and I remember a sticker with the "HS2734C_9" printed on it , that's why I choose this particular firmware.
                    Mayby you have to open your box to see what sticker is inside.
                    I don't have the box now, I "sold" it, for me it is a very bad box compared to Amlogic boxes, so I cant try the mo123 firmware...

                    @dmontesinos, try the V1.2 and tell as if it works...

                      Thanks for this ROM !

                      Installed V1.3 on my MVR9
                      Had some minor issues, e.g. MELE F10 pro will be default audio device until I made usb audio changes in develeper options.

                      But this ROM is well done !

                      Within Kodi i can use Dolby digital 5.1
                      Picture quality is better than AML 905D

                      Netflix and disney do need the android apps with an airmouse. AndroidTV Versions do not run.

                        Hi

                        For Netflix, it's best to download it from the APKPure app store since it is an xapk split app file meaning it will install the app with correct densities(160, 320dpi etc.) and is better compatible.

                        For Disney, I read users follow these instructions - https://androidpctv.com/disney-incom...martphone-fix/
                        Please let me know if this app works or others you tried and what quality it plays, maybe maximum is 720p and the sound if it works in stereo or you need to connect to an AVR to hear sound since Disney+ is not available in my country yet.
                        They are also working on a Kodi addon for Disney+, so it should be available in a few weeks - https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=342927

                        Don't know if you also use HBO EU, if so there is also a Kodi addon to stream in 1080p quality I heard.

                        For Live tv with epg, playlists I found the Tivimate app to work the best on AndroidTV.

                        Android Pie firmware also supports fractional frame-rates like 23.976, 29.97, 59.94hz in Kodi so videos play very smooth now if auto frame-rate settings are set up correctly.
                        Magisk with HideProps addon can also hide root from apps that might not have worked before.

                        If you play lots of HEVC, H265 videos in Kodi, try this new app - https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/...rmeabi-v7a.apk
                        There is currently a bug in all the old Kodi's where you can't seek forwards or back in H265 videos then the videos will just play audio and video playback freezes.
                        They are still deciding what is the best way to fix it and if the patch used for the above Kodi app will work on all Android devices.

                          mo123 Hi, I find you on all the forums right now ..
                          I just found this custom Rom and I am very interested .. I have a MX10 TvBox running Android 7.1.2 rooted, can your custom rom be installed on my box? Otherwise is it possible to build an MX10 compatible Rom? Thank you and have a nice day..

                            I will need the Android Pie kernel sources for the MX10 device since every device uses different drivers and settings to build a ROM.
                            You can try it, but make sure you have a backup of your stock firmware to flash back after testing it.
                            Some things like the ir remote, wifi, bluetooth, ethernet, DDR3(cause slowness), led's might not work on different devices.
