A95X F4 "AMLogic 905X4"

[killeriq]

Got the A95X F4

I must say i don't like it, the OS is Android, not Android TV, so the way as i used to control IPTV app and the menus in MeCool is gone

Seems like there is no Android TV available on this model, so i'll rather sell it and get the MeCool KM6 Deluxe instead as seems better in OS features for me.

Remote included is only IR for moving and controlling, so in case u want to hive it, you can't control it anymore. Even small plus are few buttons with learning function to control TV / receiver.

Doesn't feel that menu moves any faster comparing to my old Mecool M8S Pro L with s912

Also OTA update wasn't working had to do it via PC and IMG file BTW here is how to flash it : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zTRZER7ozk
U need to hold paperclip in port (not connected to adapter/power) and then connect the usb cable, takes few tries till you get it right.

Good is that you have menu for this flashing LED and you can switch it off. Not sure what is the use of it...for movies is disturbing , maybe games for kids? they like that is flashing and changing colors?

I do not like this kinda fake LED flashing and did it OFF too
Android-10 seems some of compatible issues! especially this kind of OS
th4 I'v used KM6 Deluxe too,where I'v to say that Andro-10 with "AndroidTV"
better choice,but it has Level1 and missing NFlix!(seems sideload NF works)

for this device firmwares and OTA should be come! otherwise keep away

bergamesk are you having any WIFI issues with the A95X F4? I might try a factory reset first before I try the flash that you have used.

[Guest]

Here is a good one, i cant even get into the setting to do a reset, the screen goes black...haha i am about ready to say this box is a piece of SH-T

on the FW which were shipped, i wasnt able to connect to any of my wifi networks tried 2.4g, 5g and also create mobilehot spot...always error.

After flashing manually latest FW i was able to connect.

[Guest]

I am trying to connect to the Play store the wifi says excellent connection and finally did, later today I am going to flash it with the one Bangood has given us. I may as well try it, right now i dont see this being a good box for me.

WiFi 5G OK got it max speed/full-band>>>but my Modem very close to the Device(90cm)!!
WiFi 2.4G mine is BAD!!
LAN good,but a little bit slow/low then 5G!!! (around 80-85MB)

note;my Internet speed tariff is 100MB
++

Before I'v used "A95X F3 Air" my figures are as same my above given results

++

Now asking you that what kind of speed issue as you have it???

++
-such as where is placed your Modem/Router??
-does your modem supported 5G ??
-2.4G just suck!! near modem or far away;2.4G connection very BAD!
-Ethernet not perfect but its even very good

Note;before flashing f/w or after flashing I do not have any WiFi speed issue at all

[bergamesk]

well,you right

because every box has own issues(we see it as per user reviews)
such as mostly having complaints
so,I can not say anymore for this

++
when I see above Trebor's photos such as mine is kinda different and I do not have any "HDMI" menu or button hahhaaaa
or where is Droid Settings>>>> "more settings" menu??? hahhaaaa(I'v only Droid Settings and no more!)
WTF

any many others too
about $ 50 like a sh.....tttt

There has been two OTA updates for A95X F4

Last night before i went to sleep there was and OTA update, and this morning another .I was just checking to see what was new but I don't time right now to see if it fixed the issues I had.

[bergamesk]

today I got this 2 OTA updates

its one thing that I'v seen that main menu(UI) ;I do not change it such as unwanted icons!!
or I do not placed my favorite icons etc.,
in the begining you can did it these changes but after on/off or such as going to PlayStore
and come back all my favorite changes removed and default icons there! wtf

note;before those updates it was worked stable,but now you cant change it anymore

++

well,at least OTA is now working again

++

I did factory-reset and installed some of my apks. but still some of them doesnt competible with Andro-10!!

BTW I'v uninstalled below apks. too

>NetFlix ;for NF,I use my IPTV server
>TVStore ;suck
>TVMC ;suck and installed KODI 19.1 instead
>Plex ; I do not use this

[Adrian Johnson]

Does anyone know what these updates fix? Is root installed correctly?
One of the biggest problems with these boxes is the cooling. Thankfully there is an easy fix on this box by removing the LED cluster. It's simple to just unplug it and unscrew it, I then made a simple aluminium mesh protector to sit in place of the LED. Drops the temp by about 10 degrees or 20 degrees if you use a fan on top.

[Guest]

this is the fan I always use from amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

But that's a good idea unplugging the LED...I am still in the setup / testing phase, after the last OTA my WIFI works best on the 2.4Ghz...that was one main problem I was having, the IPTV works well now, but the Nova TV Apk 1.5.0b doesn't work in this box, Kodi 19 works & Filmplus v.1.2.8 works real good.

I know the box has no root, I haven't checked after the updates for root....

It would be nice if we knew what the updates fixed, it just says optimized system and fixed bugs....lol

[Adrian Johnson]

Yes, Masher17, it would be good if they told us what they were fixing. I'll have to check Root when I get back home and install the updates.

[bergamesk]

I always get OFF these shitty LEDs
go to ColorLED Settings and turn it to OFF for Work-Video-Music

my enviro.place kinda hot right now and even coming couple months to...
with LEDs OFF I'v never been an HOTty issue with my previous Box "A95X F3 Air"(used about 16months)

++

But with Android-10 I got it some problems with my some of Apks.!!! (with all these Apk.s worked stable with Anrdo-9!!)

++

Still I do not understand that is this box "rooted" or not???
I guess seems its not rooted!

++++

For KODI Aps. I do recomm.you below;Films&Series

its compatible with 19.1

>Black Lightning
>Rogue One
>Seren
>4K
>Shadow
>Asgard

Note;if you use "Real-Debrid" Premium acc.!! even Alldebrid and Premiumize
but Real-Debrid more suitable&stable etc.,

Note;keep in mind some of Apps. does not compatible/supported etc., with 19.1
such as my above mentioned Aps. work very well with 19.1(I'v tested all 6 Aps.)

BUT mostly need you buy Real-Debrid Premium!

++

Firmware updates will come further....
at least compatible issues and Root access and might be they will go to Andro-11 too

Note;some of RK3566 Boxes came with 10 and now they gone to 11 too!!

++

My previous AML Box is "A95X F3 Air" and she got 3 or 4 times OTA upgrade during two years!!
