Nice work
Glad you are up n running

The Rom you are testing A95x F2 is only
2/16
Your Box is 4/32
So system only looks for/needs to read 2 gigs of Ram.

Ethernet lan is a whole different story.
Maybe try USB Ethernet Dongle if you really need wired .
It's possible a Rom from another S905X2 will yield working Lan.
However you may lose wifi/bluetooth..
So is a coin toss...


For system bars go to
Settings
slimBOXtv Settings

Options there to hide/ etc...

Happy Testing

You should be able to install the Lan and Ram drivers from the Beelink GS King X or the A95X Max Plus into the Slimbox Rom, right? I think that should work, the boxes are available with Android 9.0.

I've tried so many twrp versions that I don't know what to do next.

Does anyone have a working one for me?


A95X Max S905X2 u211 Android 9.0 I would prefer an img version and not zip.

Thank you for your help.

Hmmmmmmmmmm...

Possibly with Lan maybe could .???
The kernel only has provisions for 2 gig

How are you going to edit Rom/kernel and add to it????

Do not even know if that is possible?
Without building your own SDK
Way beyond my skill level.....
Lol

Maybe others have suggestions.

Good luck

Happy Testing

Thank you very much for your recommendation. Unfortunately, all the app lock software here can only encrypt the system settings and cannot encrypt the settings of slimBOXtv separately. Nonetheless, I appreciate your assistance : )

Slim House recommends full flash with >Data Erase for firmware when there are system amendments.
- He had re-introduced patches for minor increments, as you may appreciate.
- Appreciation works both ways, I believe his website allows for donations.

** Most of all, if it is not broken...don't fix/flash it. Feel free to keep an eye on any future updates. **

 

[tinko975]

yeah, twice a year reflash i think is reasonable.

I can tell you that 54.9 doesn't work on X88 King s922 box, but it does work on BeeLink GT King s922

Can I install slimbox on Mecool ka2?

 

[Reaper Man]

Can I install slimbox on Mecool ka2?

Firmware supports various s905x4

If no one else replies, you would have to risk testing,

-Possibly research specs/ open device on check chips?
WiFi
Ethernet

-Device drivers(Possibly in firmware if not stripped out?)
Web Cam? drivers
Recording audio

Go to Slim's telegram chat and post question and link to factory firmware....

Hello Reaper Man. Kindly let me know if SlimBox supports the H96 Max W2. It is not listed under the W2 on the Slimbox webpage, but the specs are similar to others that are listed there:

CPU is Amlogic S905W2 Quad-core 64-bit chip
GPU: Mali-G31 MP2
4gb ram, 64gb storage
Android 11,
one USB 2.0, one USB 3.0.

Thank you!

If memory chip is the same (DDR3 VS DDR4)
If the the WiFi/Ethernet chips are the same
If Bluetooth chip is the same
You would likely succeed is using another sbx firmware based on similar factory firmware.

Research the specs and be familiar - how to "Unbrick" your China Box.

How are you casting your android phone screen to Slimbox? Airstream doesn't seem to work for me, I do have wifi/bt switched off though because I just plug a network cable in it.

Casting can be a little touch and go..

For me, Chromecast only works for casting Chrome tabs or my desktop using Chrome browser with the AirReceiver app. (make sure 'Google Cast' option is enabled in AirReceiver)

To cast from my phone tho, I have to use Screencast (on phone) and Miracast (on box). It needs the box's WiFi turned on, and the VPN turned off for it to work. (WiFi doesnt need to be connected if you are using ethernet)
NOTE: on my older phone Screencast is called 'Smart View'.. works the same way tho
