I just installed this ROM and it works great, but a program I have doesn’t work properly because the MAC address is being spoofed. Could anyone help me with that? I’ve checked the WiFi and Ethernet settings and also the Developer Options but can’t find anything mentioning MAC addresses.

@johnpeos yes it does, just tried it, works just as well as all the stock Android ROMs I've tried so far.

Sadly, for me that means no surround-sound pass through via HDMI to my receiver, everything is reencoded to stereo PCM.
This is the 4th Android firmware I've tried:
1. was the Stock is was delivered with.
2. "H96_Max_X3_S905X3_20210323_9.0_Amlo_(by_naijarom.com).zip" from https://naijarom.com/h96-max-x3-s905x3
3. "AML_user_H96MaxX3_9_20230208.2110.img" from https://androidpctv.com/firmware-h96-max-x3/
4. "[v9]+Aidan's+ROM+(H96+Max+X3)+(IT6334)+[S905X3]+[ATV+9].rar" from https://aidanrom.com/project/s905x3/

I've tried all the sound settings I could find on each one, none of them even those that had settings that suggested it should work actually output any surround sound, neither directly passing through the DTS and other audio streams, nor as decoded multi-channel PCM. Ever Android ROM I've tried so far only output stereo PCM so far.

But I know the hardware is capable, since I've also tried CoreElec ("CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-20.1-Nexus-Generic.img") and that one finally did output surround sound, both reencoded multi-channel PCM (initially) and after enabling it in the settings directly passed through digital streams. YAYY!

Sadly, CoreElec not beeing based on Android means none of the nice streaming apps that I would like to use, only non functioning super complicated Youtube Kodi plugins with manually creating API keys and stuff like that. yuck.

Does anybody have a hint how to get working surround sound with an Android ROM on this device?

This is indeed what I'm struggling on since months... I believed it was me, all the options set correctly but the 5.1 output result somehow blended among the channels, even if the receiver clearly recognizes a dolby digital or DTS sound stream.

Also, I cannot find a reason why all the roms are 32 bit even if the cpu is obviously compatible with 64bit code. I would like to prepare and compile a completely custom rom to personally face it

Hi 2 all

Currently running....see photo below.

I have been using the following ROM on my alfawise s92 (s912 + 2GB DDR3 +16G eMMC) for about 3 years now

[v9] Aidan's ROM [S912] [ATV 9] [DDR3 & DDR4] [LAN1000].rar

I only use KODI and smartyoutbue apps. I couldn't be happier. The only problem is that the LAN network will often disconnect. Reboot will resolve it.

Aidan's rom is famous.... hXXps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vpepaQ-VQQ (6:45)

I installed the rom on my s92 but I couldn't set up audio passthrough.

Current setup s92 with HDMI->Q990B->LG E9

PS Is the project dead?

I've got the rom working on an H96 Max X3 (S905X3) but Magisk won't patch the image, it says the boot image was patched by "unsupported programs".

Is there any way around this? Maybe an unpatched boot image that I can use?

This page seems to imply that the image is already rooted but I'm not sure about that.

The box doesn't have a ram disk so Magisk won't work. For Magisk to work, you need a box supporting Android 11.

    Have a H96 Pro Plus+ (S912 CPU, 3GB RAM & 32GB ROM) and it has the stock firmware (Android 6.0?) since I bought it new when the product was new on the market.

    Is there any firmware available to make it up to date which is stable and without hidden backdoors etc. (e.g safe to use)?

    TIA!
    yes, I have the same box, try lan1000 top download https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=333134

    Just to be clear, I also can't turn it off with my remote. The led blinks a few times and my box turns back on. I have to unplug it everytime I wanna turn it off.

    Is this normal for this rom/box?
    The Power button behaviour seems to be set to restart or sleep and the device gets woken up by something. You can change the behaviour in the settings. You will probably find it searching for "power". It might not turn on after until you power cycle it though. For that reason I simply use a power extension with an on/off switch for all these devices.

    Try these roms maybe, they're the same chip as your box S905X2

    I tried with all the ones that were there but none worked for me

    Netflix wont work from play store
    The TV Version of Netflix needs Widevine Level 1 DRM, This cannot be added to your device with a firmware, Patched Netflix Apk Now Available
    SORRY NETFLIX KILLED THE TV NETFLIX MOD

    Use RAVE Or The MOBILE APP

    Amazon Prime Wont Work
    A. Like Netflix Install the mobile app, the TV version needs Widevine Level 1

    Disney+ No Sound
    A. Fixed Earlier Release

    No Root
    There Is No Root In This Firmware Because This Is a User Build (Not User Debug)
    User Build: This Is Like The official Android Tv Devices (Like Mi Box), it does not have root or TWRP, Uses Release Keys and is SELINUX enforced
    Why?
    This Makes More Apps Show Up In The Play Store that didn't show before, (Example: Isp Android TV live tv app, only shows in Play Store On non rooted and SELINUX enforced devices, also the streams in the app do not even play in rooted devices.) And other Apps With Similar Issues On Non Certified Devices....

    updates to S905W & S912 are slow due to not having test devices, makes stability improvements hard to diagnose, wifi improvements should be easier to add without testing and i will do this ass soon as i can, i have been working on a private project in most of my free time so not had a chance to further refine these chips, thanks for being paitent :)
