I think not but it is possible to install its firmware on the k1 plus and kii pro because it is the same family cpu s905

I was waiting for one of these boxes with the S905D to show up
If anyone already has hands on one of them I would love to know if Amlogic fixed the 1.5GHz problem for the CPU and if really DDR4 memory is installed.

I have seen the same receiver in aliexpres with android 6.0 or android 7.1
What do you think about that android version is better for this receiver?
Thanks

According to the website of cnx-software.com
the last firmware is android 7.0 but the date corresponds to the month of May and the new tvbox will have android 7.1 of the month of June with Google Widevine Level 1 for watch Netflix and Hbo in HD

yes still having the same problem I'm still having the sound delay between 1 to 2 seconds and also I have a friend of mine has got the same problem my friend said to me that he cannot pick up nothing from cable no channels at all

I think the problem is with hd channels. When you get delay, you change to other channel and return to delayed channel, you watch if it solve the problem.

yes that's what he goes after 3 minutes watching the channel then he will go out of sync after 3 minutes then I swap the channel works fine for a little bit and does it again goes out of sync between one and two seconds on HD channels,
after watching channel for more than 3 minutes then we'll start going out of sync does it from 1 to 2 seconds delay for example if you are watching BBC News HD you will see the person talking and doesn't match with the sound

I done a factory reset just to check to see if this fix the problem and still having the same problems, when you state more than 3 minutes channel still going out of sync you will see the person moving his lips then you will hear the sound 2 seconds later

Yes y have a little delay in HD channel, if change audio options to mpeg2 work better

UPD: I found a translated description of this TV box here
I think it is quite good TV Box.
Hmmm 1GB ram & 4GB rom don't bother with this there's just not enough memory to do anything + way over priced too.
The remote looks cool though I would say this is ment for the Chinese market
got it yesterday and was my biggest mistake to buy it,i would not recommend to anyone this one cause is in Chinese language and there was no warning at all on gearbest.com that this item does not have English lang,going to take it back and order another one and better
can change to english very easy
i recommend tis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-6qkn6awJQ to change to English. go to http://assets.sfcdn.org/apk/com.shafa.market/236/d4b163f/com.shafa.market_4.5.6_international.apk copy to a usb drive and follow the youtube video. if you manage to change to English use the baidu keybord with eng .i hop this will help you. i have in stall kodi on this box its not bad i think.

Nice. I just bought one of these units but I'm worried about a firmware update wiping out the ability to root when I connect to wifi. Can we disable auto-updates?

I have lost root before, with auto update of my MIBOX ( I have earlier 2GB version) than I rooted again, installed Play Store, all my apps and I purchased Super User app Pro version it has ability to keep Root even after update. And now I'm not afraid and update my MIBOX to the latest firmware.

Hmm, alright. Did you root for any particular reason?
Anyone else running Kodi on this box? I'm having problems with passthrough audio
I think the Pro version worth the 16euros extra
anyone tried uninstalling the built in android and running OpenElec on it?

I ordered 2 in gearbest today.
at flash sale 79 u$s each, and 2 xiaomi joysticks for 20 bucks each....
I hope I can change language....
In the worst case, I use a custom launcher.
If it can be rooted, language can be changed with no problem
Hi, you can install apex luncher. Than it will add a new "settings" icon. From there you can choose any language you want
Interesting the new Xiaomi Mi TV Box 3 Enhanced
The Xiaomi Box 3(S905) with one usb port only can also be rooted and works woth google apps also.
you just have to flash the .106 rom, then go setting change the language to English (because the .106 rom natively supports English) and then you can use kongoroot to root it via computer and USB to USB Cable after activating adb. once done you can install Gapps and change the default laucher and disable all the Mi bloatware , this way you can have more space and less ads on the device.

Hey guys is this thread based on this same unit.
https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mi-Box-A...75035&wl11=online&wl12=54827138&wl13=&veh=sem
Now selling at walmart. I just got one and trying to find some info. It was only 69 or so.
Hi guys
Can anyone who has this tell me if it has an IR receiver? I want to use it with a Logitech Harmony 650. The Logitech site lists it as a compatible device but I have my doubts as I know the remote uses bluetooth, and I've seen conflicting reports. Thanks!
I got one last weekend. I put my sunvell t95 on the top shelf of my closet. This is the box. It only has one USB port, I use a usb hub and a external hard drive, a usb to Ethernet adapter. The true Google experience is perfect on this box. Plus mobdro and kodi. I still want to root to do some build prop editing when someone figures out how to root this. The s905 cannot handle this box. It is the best buy around. Only thing I wish is if it was a Huawei box because they should have done more with there box. But Xiaomi and leeco have past them in the home entertainment market.

Hi, is there any app that allows viewing live channels? There are android box like Ubtv that has apps that allow viewing World Channels and I don't want to buy new box for only one app.
Any help will be appreciated

There are many android apps that will allow you to watch live channels. but you have to expect buffering especially when there is a pression on the servers. if you want to enjoy iptv. you better buy a subscription. or keep updating and looking for servers.

Honestly don't buy this box. it is running android 4.4. and nowadays many apps require android lollipop. plus the amlogic s802 boxes did not release ant upgrade to force us to buy bew boxes. so leave it and go get a better box. unless you want best quality with nvidia shield

Internal Photos
As you can see in this photo there is a Heat sink, its only small but doing a great job as iv not came across any over heating issues.
Device
The Q Box is A cool looking Tv box with its Ribbon of LED light that goes all around the top edge of the box that has 3 colors to choose from baby blue,dark blue & green .
The boot time is around 25 seconds so its quite nippy,There is a bottom & top status bar, Whitch i always like to see.My Q Box came fully rooted out of the box too so no messing about trying to root it.
Iv been playing around with this Q Box for over a week now & i have to say im more than impressed by it everything seems to run so well on,For an out of the box tv box experience This thing is pretty dam good.
The remote that the Q box comes with is a good remote, its not an airmouse but for a inferred remote its doing a great job.The only way to power down the Q box is with the button on the remote as there's no power button on the device its self.
Once booted up it takes you to the home screen shown below.
Home Screen
App Draw
About Tab
Kodi
The Q box comes with Kodi 16.0 & on the first run you get the choice to install the preset addons or a clean blank kodi.This is good to see that you do get the choice of the addons or not,The kodi loading time is also fast.
Games
Iv tested both beach buggy blitz & Asphalt 8, Both played perfect with no crashes or lag even with the graphics set to high,The game loading time is very fast.Also something to note the Q box has not over heated once even though it only has a small heatsink.Iv tested both the Tronsmart Mars G01 gamepad & my ps3 sixaxis controller Both worked fine & no bugs with the sixaxis gamepad ether.
Misc
Logitech c270 webcam works fine
External non powered 1TB samsung HD works
Tronsmart Mars G01 Gamepad works
Sixaxis Ps3 controller works
32GB works + my 64GB scandisk Extreme works
128GB USB Stick works
HDMI CEC works
Google play store NOT working
OTT updates NOT working
Wifi & Ethernet
The wifi on the Q box is strong its finding my home network & one another close by network im getting full signal strenth & the download speed is fast enough to stream 1080p & 4k Im finding the wifi & Ethernet quite good.

great review, i just have one question
My bedroom is about 10m from my router, and know I wish to know how far was your box from your router because you got great speeds. I would like to order one, but I am afraid that wifi will be to weak, because I allready bought m8s and his wifi is terrible
Thanks for the review. I've just got the box and it seems pretty good except for a few problems.
1) Kodi and SPMC both play quite a few files with the sound out of sync which is the same as my other android box by sumvision. Seems to be a common problem on android boxes.
2) There are some apps I want but won't install from the play store due to them being "incompatible". Solif Explorer, Firefox and Torguard VPN all refuse to install for this reason. Very annoying.
3) There is a new firmware available at ndroidtvbox.eu (Search for sunvell qbox firmware) but I cannot figure out how to install it using the updater.
4) Sunvell does not have this product on their site which is strange. What hope is there of any support?

You might be ok. Depends more on having a decent router rather than the device.
It also has a wired network port. Can you use that instead?
I can't, cable isn't a option in my case. My router is great, all other my devices have great wifi reception in my bedroom, but for example m8s is just terrible. I read that many of s905 boxes have the same problem. But when I see your result, q box wifi should be, just fine

Hi, thx for great review. Could you test some video files (1080p, 2160p, H264, H265, maybe some weird stuff too)?

Hmm, perhaps the M8 has a weak antenna. You might be ok. Otherwise you might have to invest in one of those powerline adapter kits.

Hey, I might as well add my observations:
All my files are on a local NAS.
1080p and 720p x264 video files play fine, with the exception of lots of TV episodes being out of sync. I have to set a lot of videos to have the audio 250ms ahead, but others are fine.
I have a few x265 1080p videos, and all of them play with the sound out of sync by varying degrees. It also seems to take a few seconds for the sound sync to "settle" when the file is played, but still ends up inaccurate.
great review, i just have one question
My bedroom is about 10m from my router, and know I wish to know how far was your box from your router because you got great speeds. I would like to order one, but I am afraid that wifi will be to weak, because I allready bought m8s and his wifi is terrible

Hi thanks,
All my tests so far have been about 3 or 4 feet from my router. I will do some more wifi tests a little further away.
Hi, thx for great review. Could you test some video files (1080p, 2160p, H264, H265, maybe some weird stuff too)?

Thanks for the review. I've just got the box and it seems pretty good except for a few problems.
3) There is a new firmware available at ndroidtvbox.eu (Search for sunvell qbox firmware) but I cannot figure out how to install it using the updater.

Hi Thanks,,
Iv already installed the latest firmware on my Q box for this Review the new firmware is also in my review.
Heres a guide to use the bootcard maker that may help https://mega.nz/#!ogUW1ARY!vS_HjUWYKFTo4u00p858cXeHAYouXwkuXnpz8x0ckn8

That's disappointing... I've already ordered Qbox as home video/audio player (Kodi), and this doesn't look good...

Thanks for the guide, can I press the button from the outside somehow? I've tried bending a pin but I can't manage to press anything.
BTW, perhaps you could post it here for others.
OK, I've installed the latest firmware. I cannot believe I had to dismantle the device in order to install a firmware update. My sumvision box, which has the identical "Update&Backup" app can do it from there, but this one can't apparently.
I got all my data deleted using that update method so that was also aa huge annoyance.
I cannot notice any difference whatsoever in the new image. It still has the same problems. A lot of apps aren't compatible on the play store.
I forgot to mention in my previous comment that it has random wired network dropouts. There are occasionaly times when I wake it up and it cannot get a network connection until I reboot it. This is still happening after the upgrade.
The "Update&Backup" STILL has a OTA update to download, but fails to download it and crashes after a few seconds every time. Terrible, untested software.
It says "New york" up in the top right corner of the home screen and I have no idea what that's about. (Possibly some kind of weather announcement, but I have corrected my location, regional settings etc and it remains there)
I managed to remedy the play store problem by modifying the build.prop file which thankfully is possible because the device is pre-rooted. Doing this allowed me to install SPMC, Solid Explorer, Torguard etc.
Overall, I can't recommend this device. The quality of the software is terrible. I've spent many hours tinkering trying to get it to work the way I want, so novice users should definitely not get this. The hardware seems to be perfectly capable and miles beyond something like a RPi3, but the software really spoils it.
@Sybs, my "Update&Backup" sais under changes something like "modify google play store" in bad english, does the same update still appears under the new firmware?
Ive also tried out some chinese proxies to get the update working, since the downloads from china are very unstable. But it looks like it always stops around 316 kb of 21xxx kb).
I will try to use a network sniffer to get the actual url to download the file from another pc and then to flash it manually.
What changes have you made ​​to the file "build.prop"?

Hi @DieHardMan, yes that's the same update that appears for me and it fails at about the same point every time.
I only changed the build.prop device and manufacturer to a Nvidia Shield TV as I figured that would allow me to download any apps I need. It worked.
Today the download size of the update changed to 640 MB, but now i wont even start the download. But they seem to do something server side. Ive also looked into the build.prop and theres the following line:
ro.product.otaupdateurl=http://198.11.176.47:9090/otaupdate_t95_2G/update
The ip is located in the US and the url leads to a 404, perfect.
Google Cast and TV PlayStore
Hi, I just got this TV box and it seems there is no support of Google Cast and no Google TV PlayStore (No TV app's...). How can I bring there features on board?
I bought this box for my old CRT NTSC TV, but unfortunately the composite AV output doesn't support NTSC resolution: the lowest setting is 480p and it's completely garbled so I guess my TV needs 480i.
I've seen KitKat-based TV boxes with PAL/NTSC settings, but it seem to have disappeared with Lollipop: is there any way to bring this feature back with an app or a custom rom?
Thanks in advance
qbox
Is there a possibility on the latest firmwere to turn green LED box when it is in stand-by mode . Changing the color of the backlight off working on my home screen natomast green podswiedlenie standby is quite annoying .
Regards
Michael

Hi guys, I'm considering buying an android TV box, so any other feedbacks on this Qbox?
If the firmware is still not fully functioning (Google Play, e.g.), what box would you recommend in this range of price?
Thanks!

Hi guys & girls,
This time im going to be reviewing the Amlogic T95M Tv box from Mod Edit: Selling site link removed.
First of all i would like to thank Gearbest for the review sample & for there fast postage to the uk.
The T95M arrived to me in 6 days via DHL with no custom fees to pay (Different everytime but in
most cases with DHL you will need to pax customs taxs)

quality video experience.

● Network functions: Skype chatting, Youtube, Flicker, Facebook, online movies, etc..
● Free Internet searching, thousands of android applications, many kinds of games, etc..
● Infrared remote control let you enjoy your wonderful life which the wireless brings to you
This box has really surprised me on how well it pro forms smooth & fast.
The T95M in this review has 2GB DDR3 Ram + 8GB eMMC Rom
It has 2 full sized usb ports,1 otg port,micro sd card slot,AV,ethernet,HDMI out,SPDIF & the power
port & not forgetting the secret recovery button in the AV hole.
The T95M is a small sized tv box but its not lacking anything,I will mention It has no power button
on the device its self,But it comes with a good IR remote so you can do most things from the
remote.Its also nice to see a clock on the front of the tv box thats something different.
There’s plenty of ventilation holes on the bottom of the box to help with the cooling.This is a
must have on any tv box IMO as many tv box's over heat but not this one.
The box comes pre rooted & is running android Lolliopo 5.1 With some useful apps
Facebook,Drop Box,Kodi,Mobdro,Film on,Skype,Netflix,Showbox to name a few.
M8 style launcher
App Draw (Nova launcher)
Kodi 16.0
Pre-install Kodi media center,Kodi can be used to play almost all of your popular audio and video
formats around. You can stream your multimedia from anywhere in the house or directly from the
internet.Comes pre loaded with tons of addon’s (Some adult content)
1080 video’s have been playing fine up to now also 1080 youtube video’s playing fine
The T95M also comes with a addon updater for kodi (A good idea for noobs) But seems to take for
ever to download,,over an hour to update. And once downloaded a lot of old & none working
addons thats two hours of my life gone so now back to my normal kodi setup.
Internal Photos
As you can see in the photo below there is a heatsink,Its only tiny but doing a great job The T95M
gets warm not hot,But i will fit a bigger one myself when i get around to it.
Games
Games iv tested so far are the normal games i use to test ,Beach buggy blitz & Asphalt 8 both of them played perfect with no lag whats so ever they also load very fast..
All the games iv tested have been with my PS3 controller using the sixaxis app 0.8.3
Device & firmware
Gearbest has just posted the stock Firmware (I have not tested this yet)
http://freaktab.com/forum/advertisers-and-vendor-support-area/gearbest-com/583752-sunvell-t95-firmware-download-t95-2g-2016160516

It will be interesting to see if we will get any OTA firmware updates (We would like to see this
Sunvell)
The boot time on the New T95M is between 30 & 35 seconds to complete

Customization
If I flash the stock firmware will it remove their kodi version and addons? That's what I want to do. Or are there any ROMs for this custom or vanilla android.
Thanks
did it support drm widevine?
I got one of these and the FIRST thing I did was flash it to run Libreelec as that's what I want to use it for, first from SDcard and then from NAND, so now it runs just KODI, you do lose the front display and there are a few other minor niggles (being resolved by third parties)
I have tested to 4K and H265 10bit and all works great.
The firmware download is over a GB !! so I assume it will have all the associated crap in there...
If all you want to do is run KODI then I suggest you flash Libreelec to the NAND and Bob your aunties lawn mower man...

hi,
I have same box as you, order from gearbest.
i having problem setting the "TV Control" button. How u set it so it can control my tv?
Youtube and Netflix quality
I have this box but I can't seen to get 1080p on anything. Youtube maxes out at 360p and Netflix looks bad as well. I've tried changing the setting on the box to 1080p but that hasn't helped anything. Anyone have any ideas before I send this box back?

Hi mate. Great review. I'm in New Zealand and we have a different model but same name. I was wondering if these are the same models https://goo.gl/images/HtZnCL
Also how do you find the wifi connection and is it a ac Wi-Fi?
Cheers
Hi There
I have the Sunvell T95M 4K HD TV Box 64Bit Android 5.1 - 2GB + 8GB model and am struggling to get to see the attached hard drive over my home LAN. I can ping the device successfully but cannot connect to it through Windows Explorer. Any settings on the device I need to set? Someone who can maybe point me to a proper manual.
Thanks!

All info needed, rather than retype and possibly introduce an error, this post covers it all.
There is a newer one https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread-1349.html but for a few of us it has issues
For now, I would stick to .005

Thanks mate.
Will give it a try.
Does it support 2 TB hard drives?
Being more specifically, I want to use a western digital My Passport.

this be the "ONLY" performant firmware for this Tx6 ? (tx6 4+32gb SP6330 20200423)

Hi all!
I have been obsessed by this Tx6 by TANIX...It dont deserve it, not at all yet i had to show it some love as it had a disasterous performance on all fronts.... but the week i bought it was busy and it was a bit late to ask a refund.i cant send it back, cant throw it away either...
The box looks like this.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And the PCB: Reads: CS_H6_TX28_DTX_V1.2 20191017.L4
Backside has a sticker: tx6 4+32gb SP6330 20200423 (SP6330 is the model of the wifi/bt chip)
It comes with this firmware (possibly),
HTML:
H6_9_4Gddr_20190722
You can google the exact filename to find download links for the files so i wont be adding links here.
To make this box play a 1080p30 fps videos without having hic-ups here and there,
I had to go through all these firmwares:
Code:
Chronogically ordered:
Tanix_TX6-SCV1 - And 9 - no wifi - jerky playback
TX6_release_H6_7.0_[B]20181219[/B] - android 7 - smoothish playback no wifi bt

Transpeed_6K_H6_4_648M_[B]20191118[/B]_1809 - And v9 - working wifi - very Jerky video playback
TX6S-4G-[B]20200415[/B] - Cant flash - phoenixsuit stuck at 0%
Sunvell_boot_package_fex_mod - and 8.1 - no bt wifi - jerky.img
T95 MAX-SCV2 - GREAT playback and stability.but 3gb ram, one dead usb 2.0 port, no clock on front display no DTS audio codecs
What this box deserves is a firmware that has :
Android 7.0, SP6330 Wifi chip support.
This fw "T95 MAX-SCV2.img" from which is this...
For testing the firmwares i use two youtube videos. search youtube for "motion video test"
And
They both test the videoplayback and system interruptions which i find quite appropriate for testing these stream boxes.
i went ahead and flashed this rom this time and again terrible performance on video playback, can anybody tell me what the problem here can be?
Same device, same Vendor , one plays videos like an air tv, other is like from 2005
have you tried both hardware and software decoders if you're using a video app that supports both (like mxplayer or night video player) ?

Yes , stremio 's internal player cant play it , although it(stremio) can on android 9 OS,on the other hand, unlike stremio's player, the OS's prebuild "tvdplayer" can play it fine with sound.
i also tried the firmware : miniH6-public-3Gddr-20181113-update.img
It is And 7 - Very Smooth - wifi bt works but
3gb ram , one dead usb port, no clock , DS4 not pair - bad launcher.
Have not found anything higher than android v7 that can play videos without hitching.
The only common difference between jerky firmwares and the solid ones are the different in base clock of CPU which is only 300mhz higher(1800mhz instead 1489mhz in the jerky ones.)
it is not possible to copy the wifi-bt files from the Jerky playing os to the Better playing os via folder copy paste right? these are all embeded files...
Hi I3ordo
I have the same device as yours. Did you manage to find the fully working Android 7 ROM? Or did you manage to make full use of the device in some other way?
Thank you!
Use this version, found out no issue. Wifi speed test more tham 300mbps (my fiber is 300mbps, not able to test more than it). Bluetooth, 1080p60fps no issue. LAN cable test is less than 100mbps (maybe due to old version of lan port). Summore this version is easy to root and support latest version of magisk (dont ask me how to root, lots of steps in google, so search by yourself)

I have the firmware with working wifi. it's the "TX6_H6_8822-9_4Gddr_20190722 " version which has the wifi. Tanix released 2 variants of TX6 model which looks exactly the same . 1st is "TX6" which is shown in the official website of Tanix with Dual band wifi & BT, 2nd model is budget friendly model "TX6-A", which has single band wifi & no BT.
firmware link: TX6_H6_8822-9_4Gddr_20190722
