Well, with root, install any other launcher, remove the apk of launcher, move to a safe place.
Reboot and launcher will work.
After that, intall again the launcher and you can choose between both or any you have.
I have another question...

Well, I dont find the way to do it without removing from system.
The file you must remove is mitvdesktop. only that
IDK if are any risk, but as I tell you, you can reboot into recovery and restore original firmware, so no risk
you can after remove the mitvdesktop reinstall it as user app simpli executing it, and will work as any other launcher, you can choose and set default any you want, the original, and 3º party ones.
thank you for reply.
i did your way, works fine, press home in remote to go smart launcher.
thank you.

well, Im working on port another rom to the phone, but Im stuck when I try to uncompress or mount system.img dumped from a working device.
I export the backup image too, but same result.
Have someone success with that? Is my first mediatek device...
Maybe based on firetv 2 source we can build something better than xiaomi's rom
?✌
It works great, the hardware is a beast! The only important issue I encountered so far is that sometimes it exits the video player, some other times just pauses the playback on Netflix, every 10 minutes or so. On You Tube it exits fullscreen mode, which can be quite annoying. The only solution I could find is this:
- In Settings (not the Chinese app, but the one that comes inside Shafa Market, or even better, make a google search for "startSettings.apk", download it , then install it on your Mi Box, this way you´ll no longer need Shafa Market), go to About the Phone section, and click repeatedly on the Build Version, till you are granted Developer rights.
- Back to Options, go to Developer Options, and change the number of background processes from Standard to None. You´ll have to repeat this last step every time the box reboots, but not after sleep/wake.
Done.

Hi!
My mibox when I turn off sleep mode, do not switch off/disconnect the USB HDD. The old (black pro) is always switched off. I do not like spinning all night, bluster. What could be wrong?
Thanks.

Not so sure about it, I had to restore it several times, and done already a couple of updates so far, but the problem is still there. My brother has one, too, and he bought some more for his friends, all those devices act this way at some point during video playback. I suspect it has to do with some app doing something in the background.
Besides, I wouldn´t even know how to format the internal storage (I don´t have anything inserted in the USB ports except for an air mouse), should I connect it to the computer, and reformat it? Wouldn´t it mean that the restore partition would be gone, too? And why would Xiaomi sell it without the proper formatting? It just doesn´t make any sense. It works great, once I stop the background processes, it wouldn´t work if the partition had any problem, don´t you think?
For those who experiment the same issues, I would suggest do it as I did, it´s much less complicated.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3rOUWE9mBs-T2YwMU5BTWpvN00
how to make it support rotation?
Hi all,
I just bought a new XIAOMI 3 TV box enhanced edition. Everything is fine , root , install third party's application. But I hope it can support screen rotation. I tried several screen rotation application and all failed. The screen just keeps landscape. So is it possible to make the screen rotation, like portrait ? Should I use non-stock rom ? if it is , where can I find such kind of rom ? Or just some limitation with the pre-installed rom?
Help please.
Thanks!

Connecting to PC you need 2 x USB cables for it,
(I had 2x useless USB cables)
connected like these (color with color).
Switched the USB-debugging "ON" on my TV BOX,
the drive appears on my PC..... very nice

This thread is for a custom ROM for the FAVI Smartstick.
DISCLAIMER
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
Please do some research of your own, if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it!
YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and do know that I am not asking you to make the decision to flash this ROM.
If you choose to flash this ROM, do so but that's entirely your decision.

Having said that, I am here to help and will do my best to help you if you run into trouble. All I ask is, in case of problems, kindly post as many details on the problem as you can. This will help me narrow down the problem.
About JASS -
Just Another SS Rom is my own customized rom. It uses the same ICS 4.0.4 codebase as the stock. Due to the ingrained AMLOGIC's Library, I am reluctant to modify the Kernel significantly. Rest of the Rom however has been worked on considerably. It has been oriented towards gaining maximum performance out of the single Processor on board. It also unlocks the true potential of the Mali GPU.
We all would love to see Jellybean on the Favi Smartstick. But such is not the case. The blame squarely lies at the doorstep of Amlogic the maker of the A9 processor inside. Until such time they release source for Jellybean, we will have to wait. Just so you are aware, you are not alone. The whole community of Ainol NOVO Tablet, which is based on same Processor, rebelled at this. Given they are considerably larger than the one for this stick, they had pressured Ainol into releasing JB. Ainol pointed to AMLOGIC so a petition has already been created to Amlogic. If they succeed, we shall benefit.
So is all lost till then ? Oh not at all!! Why would you want JB ? I guess for Project Butter? Or perhaps Google Now ? If so read on the Change Log.
Release 2.0 Change Log -
Say Hello to Google Now!
Welcome Project Butter! Google's Grass Roots effort geared towards smoothness and Performance. Watch this video for more.
Introducing Themed Google Apps, Say Thanks for Team Blackout for the amazing Inverted Google Apps.
Welcome the Xposed Framework. This opens the door wide for all kinds of mods tweaks and other goodies!
Gamer Oriented Performance. Quicker Disk I/O. Other Non-Gaming users should experience grass Roots performance improvement.
I am not a Graphics artist. But I have dabbled a little bit on theaming the Rom. Let me know your thoughts.
Zoom partly works. The Lens button on the lower right corner of the Mini Wireless keyboard will zoom out of any scenario. Afraid I don't have a zoom in yet.
Side note to introduction of Black GApps, From this release on, the Google apps are separately flashable zip. I will include only Google Play and Calendar in the Rom. Rest you can flash separately. You will notice a Team Black Updater app included.
This release is powered by SuperSU. So do please stop by and say thanks to its developer @Chainfire.
Please use Titanium Backup or any Root Uninstaller to remove the "Update 1.0" app. It does not play well with my code and keeps nagging about an update.
Release 1.0 Features -
Here are some of the Salient features of this Rom
Tablet UI instead of stock tabbed UI.
Numerous performance tweaks. Better memory management.
Better Wi Fi connection speed. In my case the recorded speed over WiFi jumped from 4 to 5 MBPS to 9.5 MBPS.
Better Streaming buffer. So less likelihood of Buffering while watching online video.
Dolby Digital Surround Sound with Beats Audio from this thread. Only applicable if your source file is Dolby or Netflix/hulu streams Dolby. If you like this, please thank nikhilonlive.
Adaway is included and programmed out of box. So even if you don't use the app, ads will be limited.
CIFs Manager is included in case you need to map to some windows share or a NAS.
Download & Installation -
This release will reset your SmartStick to Factory Default and remove all existing apps. So better take a Titanium Backup if you wish to conserve.
NOTE - AMLOGIC has updated Recovery. So there will be Verification failure errors if you don't follow the instructions carefully.
There are two separate sets of instructions depending on your Current firmware on the Smartstick.
Look under Settings > About > Build.
Firmware Version 1.1.2.1 & JASS 1.0 -
If you see 1.1.2.1 as the Stock firmware, then you need to download the Full Flash firmware of Smartstick.
If you have previous version of JASS Rom, you still need to update your Recovery.
Download Link here.
Unzip the contents of the downloaded Zip file completely to the Root of your Micro SD Card or a USB Flash Drive. You will notice another zip file called update.zip. Please do not unzip it. Make sure it resides on the Root of your microsd card or USB Drive then proceed to installation.
Firmware Version 1.1.2.5 -
Your Recovery is already updated. You can go ahead and use only the Update version. Download Link here.
Do not Unzip the downloaded file. Place it on the Root of your MicroSD Card or USB Flash Drive and then proceed to installation.
Google Apps -
These are completely optional. I have included essential apps into the Rom. These are the Play Store and the Calendar.
Irrespective of either case, you can use same Google Apps zip. Download Link here. Place the Zip file
Installation -
Plug in the above flash ROM device to the MicroSD slot or USB port.
Reboot into Recovery by either using Quick Boot App or by using a push pin.
Choose apply update from the SD Card or USB Stick.
For those who are coming from 1.1.2.1 version, you may see automatic update process without your input. If so, then let it complete.
For everyone else, first choose the Rom Zip. Either the update.zip or the separately downloaded JASSROMv2.0 off 1.1.2.5 zip.
Once the Rom has been flashed, you will be come back to the Recovery Screen. Now optionally choose the Gapps zip file. Proceed to flash
Reboot & Profit !!
NOTE -
Welcome Wizard does not include Logging into your Google Account. So you will have to choose Google Play Store so it will prompt you to log on the first time.
First time Boot will take considerable time as Dalvik Builds for the first time. Subsequent boots will be faster.
That's it! Enjoy & have fun. Let me know if you have any issues or feedback.

Correct XBMC Build for Smartstick -
If your XBMC Setup is working perfectly, do not read further.
The Official Release you see on XBMC's website is compiled for Allwinner ARM Processor based devices. Our Smartstick DOES NOT HAVE that processor. That is the primary reason of some of the issues you may be facing.
Here's a short detail on one of the reason for the problems.
The Smartstick, either the 8 GB or 16 GB is powered by AMLOGIC Cortex-A9 Processor. Now the part that typically throws people off is the ARM part. Both Allwinner Technologies as well as AMLOGIC manufacture Mobile Processor that are based on ARM Architecture. Smartstick has AMLOGIC's implementation of ARM Cortex A9. The version of XBMC you can download as of 01-10-14 is for Allwinner ARM Cortex A12.
So you need to get a build of XBMC that has the AMPLYER built for the AMLOGIC's implementation of the ARM Architecture. The PIVOS XIOS device does have the same processor as the Smartstick. So XBMC build by users of PIVOS will be suited for you. You can visit their forum for the latest builds. Here's a build that has been tested and found successful. So go ahead and give this a try. It has the AMPLAYER compiled inside. As you are aware, you are welcome to use an external player as well.
Thanks for this! Been waiting for a custom rom

Two features
Droid VNC ! Please. I can get a view-only VNC connection to work. But I always get "Cannot create virtual input device".
I am running the 1.1.2.1 rooted build from SmartStick.info
And Google TV remote works, but most of the buttons do not work obviously. What I really need from it is a button to open the onscreen keyboard and also, to be able to type Caps (I cannot currently). App shortcuts would be nice too.
Let me know if this could be done. Thanks.

As far as VNC is concerned, the IP tables are turned off partially. So making VNC or VPN work is bit of a challenge. I will see what I can do.
Google Remote's been buggy a bit. Primary reason is the TV Remote app and hardware don't integrate well. (AMLogic Kernel). I will need to include some keyboard drivers. Again will see what I can do.
Would you be kind and test out the current build ? I'd love to know first impressions...
Thanks for requests. Gives me an idea of what the users are looking for,
Yes, I would be happy to test what you've got so far
In every attempt to either get VNC user input working... or to install any functional remote... I always seem to have similar errors which I understand to be a lack of "uinput module loaded in the kernel"

Do please understand I did not modify the Kernel from Stock version 1.1.2.1. So these are carry forward issues from there.
I am presently working on fixing loading external modules at start. This is work in progress as listed in the Op.
Even the 1.1.2.1 stock and rooted versions don't work well with the Google TV keyboard.
It is most apparent when starting up xbmc.
I think that would be a great feature to work on.

There are .Ko files missing in the current rom for Google Keyboard. I will have to procure the ICS compatible version in order to support. Will definitely go after it.
Thanks for the feedback.
Will you be kind enough to test how Wireless connectivity is working out ? Especially buffering when playing online content ?
So how has this rom been working? Just bought a Favi stick off of groupon and will wanna root as soon as I get it. Big thing for me will be adaway. Plan on using TSF Shell Launcher with it. Pretty excited.

Short answer. No JB right now. Besides some of the JB features require real touch screen. So not really a difference between ICS & JB.
Now that 1.1.2.5 RC is out, will you be integrating the update in this rom?

Yes that's on cards. Especially considering the Navbar is back, I am considering skinning it and/or porting some tablet themes as well.
However, as you see, It doesn't look like Popularity peak. I had a grand total of 17 Downloads total. Given that I didn't have even as many posts here or on Favi's Forums, it doesn't seem like people even want this.

Its not that I'd do it for my own interest. I do it for "People's" Interest. This does not seem to be present. Does make one loose interest in the work. I am not saying I will stop doing it, I am just saying what I feel.
Thanks for the offer. I will certainly reach out.
Count me in.
I think the brand favi is not popular yet and uet does noy have enought developers
If you can improve it memory and update
To latest version and if it can do all the nice things like
Xbmc
Maybe preload xbmc ? Hardware player ..etc then people really interest
I'm very curious about the Yota 3+, the international edition of Yota 3 with the Google Play support and mirroring function.
Could any current Yota 3+ owner share their experience, please? Like how is App2Back (mirroring function)? Is there any contrast setting for the eink display?
P.S. if any current Yota 3+ owner could upload the firmware it would be even greater!

But the offical cover case is a handy case, very good for this phone.

Hello, I envy you have already got yota3+, there are a lot of yota3 users in China, even on XDA, there are many foreigners waiting for your good news. Can you upload YOTA3+ firmware?

Hisense A6 cannot support Google service. Google users are disappointed to use any mobiles without Google service, like Yota 3. Even though we can install Google service in it, running Google apps may be collapsed sometimes. Wishing the firmware from you may help us.
epd_optimizer
I have bought YOTA3+.
epd_optimizer is working on YOTA3+.
very good!
it sue
Hisense A2 Pro is very bad.
Camera is extremely low res.
The e-Ink screen isn't like Yotaphone's it is covered in glass... all glossy. Not like an e-reader at all.

Can you please tell me if Yota 3+ native phone application supports recording of voice phone calls? I have this available with Hisense A2 Pro (most Chinese made phones do have this). Want to know if Yota 3+ has it. Recorder is available by pushing a recording button during or before the phone call. Of course there are 3rd party android apps but the 3rd party apps add another layer of interaction, I prefer to have the ability to record a phone conversation natively in the "stock" Phone App. (Yes I know legal implications of recording

there is no native apps to record voice phone. there is a very basic phone app and a very simple recorder( it can't work in the background). you need to add some 3rd party apps.
Yota 3+ experiences
Hi,
I have the yota 3+ with YetiOS 8.1.0 (13.11.2018) for about 2 weeks now
and that is my experience so far:
2 main issues :
- whatsapp web with the Yota3+ isn't working, as the Yotaphone scan application inside whatsapp istn't able to scan
the QR-code on the computer screen, as the scanner is not working properly.
- if you select "power button will not lock/unlock" in the security settings, but the EPD-screen will lock up/freeze soon after that, and can't be unlocked then.
pros :
- Phone performance is OK, running stable without crashing.
- Battery life time is also OK
- GSM reception, GPS reception, phone call quality and overall volume / loudspeaker are Okay.
- Mirroring apps on the EPD-screen works well.
- 3rd party Widgets are running on the EPD.
- no bloatware installed
cons:
- Camera is below expectations, I didn't expect super high quality, but the picture quality is disappointing even in mid range expectations.
- No landscape mode on the EPD (only portrait) , hopefully this will be fixed on a future firmware-update.
- Compared to the predecessor Yota2 no NFC and no QI-Charging anymore.
Over all, coming from the (meanwhile outdated) Yotaphone2 , I am a bit disappointed of the Yota3+,
aside Octacore speed, slightly improved battery performance and display it hasn't much more to offer.
What are your thoughts ?
Greetings
Dirk
Hello,
- WhatsApp Web - scan QR code still does not work. So I can't add desktop pc to whatsapp.
- EPD screen
* weater widget - sometime it's not updated - "no internet connection" when I am running only on 4G Data. Need to be connected to internet with WiFi.
* time widget - sometime it's not updated - restart phone solve this problem
* exist any SMS notification widget for EPD like in YotaPhone 2, where when SMS come, it's shown for 10 seconds on EPD and then it's hidden?
* any widgets for quic info about email, sms, missed calls, and so on...?
My WhatsApp Web is working. I had problems with the phone too and it crashed yesterday. I recognized too late that the recovery wasn´t correctly working, so i had to flash the phone again. Since now, everything is working perfectly.

Interesting!
may I ask, what Version you have running , 8.1.0 kernel 3.18.71 Build Y3XSCN1805161 from Tue Nov. 13th ?
You said, you flashed it ? With a new version or did you just reset it to factory settings ?
As also Mr. Tubar above has written, scanning whatsapp web doesn't work for mine either, it looks like this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

Sometimes, my weather and time widget also is divergent from the real time,
please see the real time in the menu bar on top of the screen :
In addition the weather widget is set up to update every 30 minutes, but it stays unchanged for hours...
* exist any SMS notification widget for EPD like in YotaPhone 2, where when SMS come, it's shown for 10 seconds on EPD and then it's hidden?

I am using the Yota2 widget from Alex Archen, called "YoMessage", you probably still know it from Yotaphone2.
It is working on yota3+, showing incoming WhatsApp & SMS ae-mails and whatever you configure it.
However, changing back from popping up message to normal EPD-Screen isn't always working properly,
sometimes the display remains in a almost completely faded message instead of going back to idle screen.
So it is not perfect, but it works.
I am hoping for a new firmware update to get rid off some of the bugs.

sorry, i made an update recently, so i don´t know my kernel version. As my Phone crashed, i had already the newest version of the updates. It worked with whatsapp right after i flashed it with the 9008, without any update. I willt try it with the newest update.
I flashed it again with the instructions in the forum, from Yota 3 to Yota 3+. I recognized, that i didn´t had a correct working recovery after the first try of flashing to yota 3+.

Whatsapp Web
So, i have some answers.
After i flashed the Yota 3 to the Yota 3+, everything was working well, including Whatsapp Web.
After the first Update, the small one with 16MB, i lost the ability of booting into the stock recovery, everything else worked fine.
After the next Update, the big one with 1,4GB, i still lost the stock recovery an Whatsapp Web didn´t work.
I think, i flash my phone back to get all functions back. Especially because the last time of the heavy phone crash i had the newest update also.
Thank you Sodasistso, your answer cleared it up.
So the newest firmware is just buggy.
And congratulations that you were successful to flash your yota3 to plus ,
I wasn't aware of that before I read the other thread about it.

After flashing from Yota3 to Yota3+ scanner works fine, and it's true, that after big second update Yota3+ scanner stop working.
Scaner on other phone apps works fine, I think problem it's only in whatsapp which use his internal scan tools maybe.
I have found temporaly solution for that - add windows whatsapp app to whatsapp.
I turn on in Windows 10 Zoom for 200%-400%, then I start Whatsapp app on Windows 10, and that qr code in this app aj zoom to whole monitor.
After that I try run scanner in Yota3+ whatsapp and try scan it. After 4-5 try, I do that I scan it from 50cm from monitor.

THANK YOU ! :good:
that did the trick! I did not expect the scanner would scan anything at all in this mood,
but when zooming the QR-code to the max screen size and reducing brightness of the backlit notebook display,
the whatsapp was able to read it when placing the QR-code in the white area of the scanning area. :fingers-crossed:

I purchased my phone something like 2 Month ago.
I purchased by mistake the Chinese version and I only noticed that when I got the phone.
Since I was waiting a long time to the phone I didn't want to return it and I thought I can get used to it.
But after two months with it I think Im gonna go crazy:crying:
I don't have Google assistant the third party launcher is not fully functional (after I forced to manually remove the system launcher) And the massaging app Is stupid and don't support third party apps I mean WTF????
Please , does somebody has/know where to get international ROM for download?

I don't think so.
This days you have the xiaomi mi mix 3 witch is for my opinion much better than oppo find X and cost even lower than 500 EUR.
Even if wasn't for the xiaomi I still don't recommend to purchase the Chinese version. It's totally sucks!!!!
And If you do want to buy, you can buy my phone for 400 EUR..

Thank you! Your comment is very valuable to me!
What is worst that does not work?
I like design of Oppo better than Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 a little bit better. Honor Magic 2 is what I also consider (it is even more powerful).
I am not a heavy user of a phone. I mostly use it for calls and emails. Also some browsing, youtube and taxi apps. Maybe taking some photos of my children. I do not use that much apps. But I never had Chinese version of phone, so I do not know what problems could be.
P.S. Which one do you have (what color), what is its condition and where are you located?

Basically the most annoying things is the fact that Google apps aren't the default for everything. Start with Google assistant and ends with browser and You can't change the default settings for most things.
Also, the massage app is completely out of sense because all of the 'security' that oppo put in the app.
Talking about security:
1. They have annoying security keyboard (but you can change it to Google keyboard).
2. They have kind of secure Chinese browser that almost that serching in it bring up only Chinese website's And you can't change the default that while you open a link that Oppo think it's should be secure automatically it's direct to Oppo browser Wich don't have all of your passwords and username for this very secure page..
3. Like I said the massaging app.
4. You need to open oppo account for security and you can't open one directly from the phone because they only allow Chinese phone number (it is possible to other countries but it's very complicated).
5. I'm sure there is more that I forget or don't know about.
P.S I'm located in Israel.
It's the blue one.
256GB ROM 8GB RAM
Actually it's in a pretty great condition except for a very few unnoticed screech's. If you want to buy it, I can list it on eBay end send you a link.

The oppo browser and the keyboard are both disabled on my Chinese find X. Nova launcher works PERFECTLY on it as well. I personally don't care about or use the messaging app as I use whatsapp for that.
Using ADB, I disabled all stock functions and apps. My ONLY issue left is not having Google Play Music controls on lockscreen. Other music apps work for that but I've been using Play Music for so long...

Can you please explain to me how exactly do you installed the Nova launcher?
I used also ADB to remove the system launcher so I can use some other launcher and it worked, I can now use any launcher I please.
But on any launcher I tried including Nova, when I tried to go back from the app currently opened to that main screen I mean when I tried to use the middle button it's just exit all open apps including the launcher and direct me to this screen
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
On this screen I just can't do anything! I can't slide the middle button to show all open apps And I can't use the back buttons!
The only thing I can do is to slide down the notification window (but can't get in to any notification) And to take a screenshot..
Can you please explain to me what exactly did you do to install the Nova launcher on your device?
I didn't do anything special. I installed nova, and removed the stock launcher. Works just fine for me and everyone I know. Try changing the home button action to NONE in the gesture settings in nova.
Hello, I have bought TV Box from China,
Model Vontar X3 Amlogic S905SX3 4GB/64GB Android 9.0.
I have a few problems with this TV Box:
1. I cant install any apps from Google Play Store. I dont know why...
2. There is problem with overheating.
3. Software installed in tv box comes from 2018 year. There is newer version on local disc. Should I update to new version?
I hope that someone help me

Hi, you may need to update google play services and the play store, you can find the apks on apk mirror,
What are your overheating symptoms and temps?
Where did you obtain this updated firmware, issue being sometimes these devices are clones and dont work properly so there is always a small risk when installing a firmware, I would reccomend using a usb A male to male cable & usb burning tool and read about Mask Rom Mode as this makes these devices recoverable from a bad firmware or flash, means you can try custom roms for S905X3 too, often the aweful factory firmware is aweful, I have my own android 6 s905x box running the official Android 9 Mi Box Firmware (with my modifications) and it makes these devices very usable, performs like a proper mi box, no lags ect, point is firmware can make a world of a diffrence

As my threads, topics etc here are unreachable for the moment (due to the forum changes) please go here to see about the playstore problem (Note2 of 1st page): https://forum.freaktab.com/forum/tv...-transpeed-x3-air-bqeel-y8-max-amlogic-s905x3
For the overheating just place your box above a USB fan base. That is what I use for all my TVboxes and I get a temperature 10-15 degrees Celcius lower, which is more than enough. You can make it by yourself or buy a ready made.
Installing also a custom rom will give you "another" box (meaning with more capabilities).
Have a look at my custom rom, especially if you need a preinstalled Magisk and TWRP.

Hello, I ve found solution for overheating problem: Its Vontar C1 cooler. I get a temperature 20-25 degrees lower. It should be enough.
How to update google play services and play store in Vontar X3?
I can make update here: Settings -> System Update. I have XR1.180610.011_release_keys(20200822_0033). X - I dont know what sign is before R.
And there is another problem: some channels in smart TV are in 16:9 forrmat. In Vontar the same channels are in 4:3 format.
And frame is cut on the left and right. So for example, number 123 - I see only 23. Just like XR1.

Probably you didn't read my note 2.
Install the latest app of Playstore from apkpure https://m.apkpure.com/google-play-store/com.android.vending
Reboot and try again.
Also try in addition this : Playstore-Settings-version number and click upon the version number 7-8 times. You will become a developer and probably get even newer updates.
You may have to reboot again and click once more upon the version number!!!!
As far as your mother I have ginen one to my mother (she is 87 years old !!). Having Launcher Square Home she is happy/and easy to use !!!

First of all look at Settings-Device Preferences-Screen and look/change what it is in "Screen Resolution" "Screen Position" (you can make smaller/larger the image shown).
Also you may have to alter something in your TV preferences.

Hello, I think that you must update your play store, it happens a lot when Chinese dud taps a standard google android system. It's outdated and reconfigured for first use. Chinese craps. One thing you need to do is update play store as a .apk . Download it on your PC and put in SD CARD or direct with USB cable and transfer and install in device. Restart system and you should have a updated play store and no limitations.
I know this is a month old topic but maybe it will help others.
Hi, I've got the CN version of the mi pad 5 pro. All the content playing are in SD. I check DRM that it's L1, but netflix still says it's L3. Anyone able to fix this?

After Rooting, you can do it

There are special versions out there. But they are a few years old, so you can't skip or get the timeline.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-netflix-hd-for-widevine-l1-device.3942467/
Also I heard from someone in Korea who create a successful bypass.
I am also having HD issues with both Amazon Prime Video and Nextflix.
I prefer not to root due to the validations I have on apps I use for work. (eg. Outlook, Office, Wrike, etc.)

Stock CN Xiaomi Pad 5 Pro 5G (enuma) here, for Amazon Prime Video, if you enroll in the beta program at Play Store page and install latest beta, you will be able to watch in 1080p FHD.
I don't have Netflix subscription, but I guess the underlying issue is the same, i.e. the device is not on the whitelist yet. Maybe anyone with Netflix beta program access can try and tell us the results.
Guess it still takes time for stream service providers to whitelist this device.

Magiskhide stopped working for me with outlook on my Mi Pad 5 Plus. I stopped bothering to look into it...
I will try this hack out and report back:

The Beta version of Prime Video worked!!! Thanks so much for that tip!
It shows 1080p, and man this is like night and day. So much better.
Lets just hope that it stays that way.
Great to see that there is support for FHD content on the popular streaming services now.
Only thing that i don't like is how they don't allow for the pad 5 pro to stream in Dolby vision and ATMOS, even though it's certified for it...
Check your Netflix app.. Mine now shows L1 Full HD but no HDR.

Try the 1.06 Kodi Edition app. It works well on my Pad 5 Pro.

Is this still the case now? I'm looking to buy the Pad 5 Pro and this question doesn't seem to have a solid answer.
Have you done anything to get HD working or is it simply functional after an update?

The official app doesn't show 1080p for you?

I haven't done anything I was just using kodi for a while then I just went to check on Netflix and found it on 1080p.
No one confirmed yet if they have it as mine. Another thing is that you don't know it might go back to potato quality in any minute.
I wouldn't buy it if it's a necessity to you.
Because of the fact that there is no existing global Rom for Pad 5 Pro until now the "normal" Netflix app shows Widevine Level 3 on my device though we all now that it has in fact Level 1. I don´t know how long this situation will last until Netflix reacts. We don´t have any influence on this. So for me the proposed app is the only solution to watch Netflix on 1080p momentarily. If anyone wants to use only the official Netflix app then watch movies in SD or buy a different tablet.

Ah, thanks for the info. So there is progress on the Netflix side. I´m currently on Pixel Experience GSI, because I don´t like the Chinese MIUI. I guess this is why I can´t get the original Netflix app to work properly.
