Thanks for warning. I just edited the new information. Gustav

Gustav, please, make firmware for Mecool BB2 2/16 based on Ugoos AM3 firmware, because there are already custom versions but they are all defective. They do not work LAN or Wi-Fi or stock remote control does not work.

And yet, how are things on the Mecool BB2 with wi-fi 5 GHz, because in the Tanix-TX9S only 2.4 GHz?

Hello.
The situation with the Ugoos TV box is such that I have been unable to open and close the Ugoos firmware for a long time: it is a difficult matter for me. With a 5 GHz network, you're right. Android 7.1.2 Tanix TX9S does not support 5 GHz wifi network - only 2.4 GHz. - missing links in Android Tanix for AP6255 drivers I put there. On the FreakTab page, however, I saved the TV Box GI iTV912 stock firmware, which has the native WiFi AP6255 as Mecool BB2 (I did not edit wifi in Android GI iTV912). There could be 5 GHz wifi to work. It's Android 7.1.1.

Here is the link for the firmware:

Wifi 5 GHz network I had nowhere to try, because I have no such network at home and therefore I missed it.

Hi Gustav, the software you have edited is perfect, I like it very much, congratulations. There is only one problem: that when I turn on the mecool bb2 the light of the device always remains red, it does not turn blue. great job. can you let me know if this bug is fixable? otherwise i will leave it as it is.

Hi, the firmware is set by the manufacturer so that the colors of red and blue light of the light are the opposite - it is not a firmware fault. Also, the manufacturer has ensured that files from the TV box can only be transferred to the USB stick from the "FileBrowser" application (yellow icon) - I have read somewhere to protect the TV box from stealing files, so only the manufacturer's designated file management program is provided. Good luck.

hi nice rom any chance for a 3/16 gb version?

[Pctravel]

So this issue is the same whether I use your 7.1 blue or this 7.2 but you are saying this one is faster? Your 7.1 blue worked great!

[Pctravel]

And there is no possible android 8 that could be built?

Hello everyone! Since the firmware from Tanix TX9S is suitable for Mexool BB2 2/16 TV station, you can try to flash Mecool BB2 2/16 with the new ATV firmware (Android TV) modified specifically for Tanix TX9S. This firmware was made 05/09/2020 based on the firmware from Minix Neo U9-H FW008. Here is the link to the firmware https://mega.nz/file/o9EWmI5T#wMz7fP...nDCUjrJ2FENTjU
