HERE for the 3/32GB T95Z variant(Mirrored and renamed custom-recovery.img for the sake of flashing instructions)
Flash instructions
1. Download ADB and install it on your pc(not explaining this, there are 5 second installers) then open a command prompt in the directory of the custom recovery
2. Enable USB debugging, go to settings>about and click build number about 10 times, then go back to the main settings menu and you will see developer options, enter it and check allow USB debugging.
3. Connect to your device via IP address. go to settings>about>status and get your IP address. it should be something like 192.168.25.19
4. In CMD type the following commands, replace YOURIPADDRESS with the address we got from step 3
Code:
adb connect YOURIPADDRESS
adb push custom-recovery.img /sdcard/
adb shell su -c dd if=/sdcard/custom-recovery.img of=/dev/block/recovery
adb reboot recovery

To revert, Download the stock recovery from HERE and do step 4 again, this time replacing custom-recovery.img with stock-recovery.img
Code:
adb connect YOURIPADDRESS
adb push stock-recovery.img /sdcard/
adb shell su -c dd if=/sdcard/stock-recovery.img of=/dev/block/recovery
adb reboot recovery

Sorry if this is a NOOB question....I have lots of experience in Adroid rooting with Phones....
I am though new to TV Boxes. I have a T95Z Plus made by Easytone
Are all the boxes by diff companies (Sunvell etc) the same?

There are different variants with different wifi chips according to research, however recovery should work on all, if worst comes to worst take a backup of the recovery image, anything goes wrong flash it using my method
The box I have has an issue with this old version of the Google Play store on it...which doesn't work well
And the launcher doesn't let you place the newest one on it.
So this will easily allow me to root or so far all you have here is a recovery?
And you just started working on this Box it seems?

The device comes rooted from factory, is the issue you are facing is playstore keeps prompting setup then that is an issue with their distributed GAPPS.
When switching to magisk root i noticed playstore prompts root access?
My guess is they have modified the playstore.
Yes my issue was #1 the play store on launcher was version 6.9 and always prompted setup it seems to be labeled Play Store 1.0 in Titanium Backup
However there is another Play store that is actually the current version and it works fine...
I did see its rooted, had no idea thanks....Are all Android Boxes rooted from factory?
My firmware ends in 1075 is this the most current?

Thus exactly why I think it's a modified playstore distributed with the firmware
Yeah as far as I know all boxes are rooted from factory, a very wierd root implemention as updating SU results in a bootloop, simply removing Su files from xbin removes root and only then you can root with magisk with TWRP
In the program I'm making there's an update GAPPS option, this will fix the issue and romkve old play store

Ok so it sounds like I should wait for your newer stuff to come out? Or does what youve released already add Magisk?
Is my firmware current? Wirless UPdate says it is
Looks like a great project will it also work on a t95u pro

hey here is a few bugs i have with t95z with the latest 1075
settings crash and the fake playstore
bluetooth audio is not working it just sounds weird
uhm the navigation bar if u click on it need to reset it to get it back up
im using h96 firmware on my t95 much better firmware
but the only thing that is not working
is the device wont go to sleep
it just turns screen off but device is still running
and the last thing is if u power off the device u cant power it on with the remote for some reason
if u able to take h96 firmware and make it work with the t95z remote it will be perfect cuz the h96 firmware everything works
Totally agree with mehmeh on the 1075 bugs...same here

I am not including the hboot and I do not recomend you update it as of yet either as it will prevent you from reverting to previous ROM versions.
Out of alpha and into Beta, xposed installer and sense5 toolbox included in mods install in aroma.Please do not ask for RUU downloads and don't ask for updates it is likely this will not have any major changes until the RUU is made public. I will keep you posted as progress continues.
Supports xPosed Framework Check it out HERE
I recommend installing the Sense5 Toolbox module as it provides the most comprehensive set of tweaks available

Google Services Framework Fix (step by step instructions)This will fix Play Store issuesMAKE A NAND BACKUP OF YOUR NON WORKING ROM
Code:
STEP 1: Restore a working backup (one you know play store worked on)
STEP 2: Download a windows android file browser (I recommend Android Comander)
STEP 3: Connect your device to your PC, Open the android file browser
STEP 4: Browse to /data/data and locate "com.google.android.gsf"
STEP 5: Copy the folder from STEP 4 to your sdcard (remember this location)
STEP 6: Restore your non working ROM from in recovery, Reboot
STEP 7: using a root explorer (or the windows android browser) locate the folder from STEP 5
STEP 8: Copy the folder from STEP 5 into /data/data make sure you choose to overwrite the folder and files
STEP 9: Reboot (You must reboot first, do not immediately try to open play store)
STEP 10: Once rebooted test Play Store, Google Plus and Hangouts all should work fine.
I realize this seems like a daunting task just to fix the Play Store,
but there is no easier way at this point to accomplish this the Google account MUST exist before restoring this folder
in order for the fix to work.

Everything appears to be working great, though I am still on the new Hboot, so it's more likely to work fine. :silly: I'm running it with the stock kernel, but what are the benefits of an unsecured boot.img?

Insecure boot image lets you use adb remount, and adb push or adb pull etc. to /system and its contents.
also the included boot image has init.d support, sdcard performance tweaks and evitareul_common tweaks. so you will get better performance when streaming large video files or playing music from your /data/media folder
great but 1 bug
Flashed the rom and everything is working, except Google search. Every time I use voice search I get Google search has stopped. Super smooth though. Great work.

Here are flashable versions of the stock Moto X Style & Pure ROMs built from the factory images using SuperR's Kitchen.
No modifications of any kind were done to them, except for the deodexed versions, which were created from the odexed images.
V2 update: Deodexed versions of the stock ROMs have been updated to v2, which include current Google Apps,
and should resolve random closing issues.
Installation:
Custom recovery (TWRP) is required.
If you are already on stock:
Factory reset (not needed, but recommended)
Flash your desired stock version. BE SURE TO GET THE CORRECT ONE FOR YOUR PHONE MODEL!
For root, download SuperSU and flash it.
For Xposed, download and flash Xposed Framework too (flash "xposed-v75-sdk22-arm64.zip" in recovery and install "XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk".)
Reboot.
If you are on another ROM (ex. CM, Slim, etc.):
Factory reset
Flash your desired stock version. BE SURE TO GET THE CORRECT ONE FOR YOUR PHONE MODEL!
For root, download SuperSU and flash it.
For Xposed, download and flash Xposed Framework too (flash "xposed-v75-sdk22-arm64.zip" in recovery and install "XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk".)
Reboot.

If using the deodexed version: during boot after a fresh factory reset, give it about 3-5 minutes. After that, the screen will go black for almost a minute, followed by the boot animation playing again. I'm not sure why it does that, but after that hiccup, the ROM will work fine as if nothing happened.

Semi-stock ROM (personal build)
for Moto X Pure (X1575)
Android version: 5.1.1 | Build: LPH23.116-18
Last updated: 11-02-2015
Here is a personal build of mine that is tweaked the way I believe it should be.
Although most are minor changes, and nothing awesome like Cataclysm for Nexus 5, it is enough for me to enjoy the ROM more and fix what Motorola missed.
This is for the Pure (X1575) only!
What's in my semi-stock build?
Deodexed
Busybox
Fully compatible with Android Pay
NOTE 1: If Android Pay did not work for you, even on complete stock, it will not magically work on this build either.
NOTE 2: Before using Android Pay, disable SuperSU in the app's settings first. After you are done making your transaction, re-enable SuperSU.
Screenshots of Android Pay in action earlier today (as of 10-20-2015) when I went to buy a $25 Google Play Gift Card using my Google Wallet card on this ROM.
ViPER4Android FX included and preconfigured with super audio driver
Configuring ViPER4Android FX:
Be sure to either set the kernel to permissive using an app like SELinux Changer, or use a Tasker task to allow ViPER to run in enforcing.
Disable the stock Audio Effects setting under Settings > Sound & notification > Audio Effects.
Set V4A to compatible mode.

Installation:
Custom recovery (TWRP) is required.
1. Make a backup of your apps using Titanium Backup or the like.
2. Factory reset to ensure of no issue
3. Flash the semi-stock ROM
4. Reboot.
5. Restore apps using Titanium Backup or the like.
During boot after a fresh factory reset, the screen will go black for almost a minute, followed by the boot animation playing again. I'm not sure why it does that (even with the stock deodexed version), but after that hiccup the ROM will work fine as if nothing happened.
For Xposed, download and flash Xposed Framework too (flash "xposed-v75-sdk22-arm64.zip" in recovery and install "XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk". THIS CAUSES SPORADIC COMPATIBILITY WITH ANDROID PAY! USE AT YOUR DISCRETION.)

Quick question how is your battery life on your semi stock rom, based on your personal experience.
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
I have been trying to get mine to be able to boot. Awesome job...
This is not a CM based rom.. and layers requires AOSP type rom's..
Can't get exposed to install properly per your instructions. Downloaded many times. Installs through recovery but states its not been installed in installer app. Modules say they require brige version 2 for greenify and 54 for apm+ mods. Never seen these errors and I have been running exposed since inception.
FYI if you guys want viper to work under normal mode flash extreme music mod it works for me on stock I don't know what's the difference but its working. For about a month now.
I use Dolby atmos along with it and works nicely together.

Flashed deodex version on 1572 and it went through the boot animation but stuck on the Motorola screen and wouldn't boot in to the system.

The deodexed version is for the Pure Edition XT1575 only.
Edit - I should be more specific... The custom one is for XT1575 only. Is that what you flashed?
some weird behavior on deodexed rom - can't turn on volte provisioning flag (yes works on my stock backup) everytime phone boots drive,slides etc.. apps run for 1 sec and get closed kind of weird.
I will have to go back to my backup for now I was hoping this would work :/
Here is how I tried to manually turn it on and it did not allow me.
*#*#4636#*#*
then phone and turn on volte provisioning flag.
on stock moto volte of course works and I can turn on/off the flag. Hopefully you can fix this so I can flash back thank you

I get around 4 1/2 to 5 hours on light use, which consists of listening to music with few short calls and some browsing.

If you're doing a clean wipe and are using the deodexed version, let it sit on the Moto boot animation for about 3 to 5 minutes. The screen will then go black for a minute, followed by the boot animation playing again. I don't know why it does that, but afterwards it'll boot up fine.

Sounds like something went wrong while deodexing the Google Apps. I'll upload the deodexed versions with updated GApps.
As for VoLTE, I'm on T-Mobile and it's on by default, but I can't turn it off.

The current APKTool (2.0.2 as of this post) could be the cause at the moment. I will update the deodexed versions again once a newer build of it is released.
V2 versions of the deodexed stock ROMs are being uploaded to AFH first to (hopefully) fix the random closing issues of Google Apps by replacing them with up-to-date versions of each app.
I will add them to OP during class as it doesn't look like they'll finish before I leave out again.
Hi to all, i'm an old and Retired XDA Rom developer, i hope someone remember me here recently i buyed a Mini M8S II, and i found some bugs, and i hate the customization so i looked into...
That's what i got... a superspeed rom, customized with all the new fixes and utility you need.

}
It's for Mini M8S II, but should work on any P212 Motherboard based TvBox, and some other with 2Gb of Ram, obviously i did not a test with all devices but you can read in forum.
Reported Working also on:
- Tanix TX5 Pro
- Mini MX + S905x 1Gb
- TX95
- TN95
- X96 this is the remote.conf
- Nexbox A5 2G/16G
- Nexbox A95x s905x 1g 8g
- and many others
Using a different device just remember to put the correct Remote.Conf in /system/etc ; in my custom rom /system/Media i gave to you a directory with some remote.conf i found around:
Code:
[B]REMOTE INCLUDED [/B][B]TO BE COPIED IN /system/etc/ (give permissions 644)[/B][B]:[/B]- Nexboxa5
- Nexboxa95x
- V88 Pro
- TanixTX5Pro
- X96
So this Rom is:
Code:
- Deodexed
- Zipaligned
- DeBloated
- Xposed Framework prebuilt in and activated
- Init.d support built-in
- Kodi bloated addon removed + Kodi/SPMC optimizations Built-in
- SuperSu updated to latest stable
- Many refinement and optimizations
- Selinux in Permissive mode
- SquareHome2 set has system launcher, you need to customize it by yourself, but i like it badly. ;)
App Removed:
Code:
- OpenWNN and relative libs
- PPPoe
- Filebrowser
- Browser
- Videoplayer
Bugfixes:
Code:
- USB keyboard ENTER bug corrected;
- RGB FIX go in Android settings/display/set colorspace choose RGB then Unplug and replug HDMI cable!
- Brightness bug fixed;
- R/W working;
- Wifi: i bougth a litte 6db gain antenna with cable(1,5 $) soldered it removing the ****ty antenna inside of the box.
- Passthrough Fix - Thanks Pharjister ![B]Passthroughfix.apk Instructions:[/B] You had to go to android settings/more settings/apps privileges and turn on storage privileges then notifications and give it priority. Launch the app and use reboot button ad approve root privileges for it. From then on after rebooting wait until you hear the notification sound and check if the app has received root privileges. Normally it takes few seconds after the system is loaded. Sometimes you should reboot several times to complete the procedure.
Preinstalled apps:
NOTE: none of the apps included in my ROM it's pirated or modded: all free versions!
Code:
ADAway You should not need to open it because hostfile is yet ready to block ADS
Chrome + Webview
Google Voice Search
SPMC 16
Netflix (Edit build.prop change service.bootvideo=0 for a unknown reason netflix in some country give error 0013 if that prop is setted to 1)
MxPlayer [B]In /system/Media there are the better codec from XDA Thread, just set it in preferences[/B].
Total Commander + 3 useful plugins
YouTube
Terminal Emulator
BootManager [B](to be activated in Xposed installer)[/B]

Few dirty tricks with the brightness, nothing more, it's a problem of colorspace unavoidable if your TV hasn't the right setting.
Some Updates:
I got some freetime today so i checked the zip... ok i understand what appened... 7zip for a strage reason used an old script that could cause some issue.
During that examination i add very nice (but untested) feature to my zipfile script. So now it copy the old (i hope working) remote.conf from /system/etc/ copying back at the end of the flashing.
But i removed the device chek so please if you flash that zip in a uncompatible device it's not my fault
TWRP:
I decided to add TWRP Recovery by default, work well but you need a wired mouse to operate with recovery...
Everything online!
Enjoy:good:
Update:
I checked v109Fw from VONTAR for MINI M8S+ it's IDENTICAL to V106 so it's a VONTAR custmization of the V106 fw it has just the USB Kb fix and a fix in Kodi setting yet in mine custom, so there is nothing new, and something in setting.apk that seem lightly different.
So i will not work on a custom rom of it, it has no upgrade in system, no upgrade in fixes.
I know that many users downloaded my custom Rom, could you just write me your impressions, or a feedback. Thanks.
Does this ROM have a fix for HEVC/x.265 files that are encoded in 10bit? My firmware displays those files in greenish garbage on the screen when using Kodi.

I personally had not problem to play X265 files with Kodi.
Unfortunately I have when not using amcodec acceleration. When I use it, HEVC 10bits play fine, but Kodi then crashes on me.

Some news on my work on this Custom Rom
Actually i have ready a new revised version of the Rom, but i'm waiting if someone can give me v107 firmware (if really exist).
What i did until today (not yet uploaded):
- Init.d Support Built in (without any external program);
- Removed Init.d Zipalign script pratically unuseful on 6.01;
- Added Sd speed optimization tweak:
- Fixed a unharmful and almost invisible linking bug caused by Amlogic Customization Tool that i used for fast customization process.
- Added in Kernel AutoRefresh Chmod Permissions;
- System Memory optimizations;
- Updated some apk;
- Removed some unuseful APK
- New DarkScreen fix Workaround (full/limited colorspace problem)
To do before release (i hope):
- Add Reboot Option on power menu - but it gave me many headaches.
- Chromecast Service
- Reworking on more elegant solution for some fixes.
After that release if all will be OK, i will just work on a Android TV Version, probably unaploadable on forums cause i should use so many dirty hacking to apks, but i hope i can find a more "elegant" way.
Wow sounds good. At first spare time will try it immediately. Just have to install TWRP on my box.

Why do you need TWRP? my rom will install TWRP by default.
Which device do you have?
And not to be misunderstood the list i just published it's a new version not uploaded yet.
For backup
I've got MINI M8s X905 2/16

NONE OF MY ROMS AND NO OTHER ROMS WORK?
If you have one of these devices that really struggle taking any custom ROM, sometimes these are MXQ devices (there are so many clones of these devices) and they may have a locked bootloader or it needs a DTB that isn't common or known, there are some ROMs that have saved some people before, these are only if no other custom ROMs will work for you and are a last resort

i just haven't been able to get it working correctly yet, still learning a lot about the android ROM structure ect... only started this a few months ago as a mission to make my own s905x box usable and actually bearable to use i would ideally like to have it pre rooted with the switch in settings actually working, but so far have been unsuccessful, It is possible to flash magisk with TWRP on my ROM (TWRP IS PRE INSTALLED BOOT WITH TOOTHPICK METHOD)

Sorry ignore my ramblings about recovery, seems my reset button n my 1GB RAM box is flaky, flashed it at least 250 times past few weeks haha,
Sorted now just have to apply extra pressure, as it worked on my 2gb box
Boot into recovery and flash Magisk.zip
Test its installed correctly by running Root checker.apk
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1rr02uqmrYqJ5vi97P06-e63Z71CfUlyL
Wow, I'll get on that and take a look. Do I just flash it with the Magisk zip when in recovery?
Thanks for the reply.

Yes just flash with TWRP recovery
never got as far as testing adding root with magisk but yhea seems to work, and my aim is to have it so stable that root is mostly unnesicerry and to make it as user friendly as possible ans will be using my firmware when i set up boxes for people in my area
out of curiosity what are you looking to change aor add?

Do you know what wifi module your box has, you can open the device and check if your not sure OR if you have a working ROM i could attempt to extract drivers & FW

Thanks for your fast reply. I can´t post links in the forum( i am a newbie) with detailed information. In the picture below you can see the board . Perhaps you can idenfify the wifi module. The stock firmware can be found in h96tvbox site.

hi, every box has a diffrent remote, ive included as many as possible blindly, i would need a file from a working rom, i wouls suggest flashing a few roms until your remote works and i can try to addthe remote.conf file
Also if you have a USB keyboard you can use that to get through the set up, then go to settings and enabe HDMI CEC (This allows your tv remote to control the box if your TV supports it)
Oh and game controllers, ps3 USB and Xbox one bluetooth (Maybe others untested)
Thank you ?? for ur quick response that is very kind of yoy...
I have a rom that the remote is working on it....can you tell the way to extract the remot.cinfig file from it then how to add it to ur rom or send it to u and u can gratefully add it ......thanks]
If you can upload the ROM to google drive or somewhere similar and share the link (you can PM the link if you cant post)
I'm trying to get v7 going on a TX3 Pro (may be real, may be a clone - Nanya DDR, RTL8189FTV WiFi), it's 1G/8G S905X. Aside from TX3pro-specific firmwares, nothing works on it - most do not get past the bootloader stage (red light). It's the same case for yours; however, using the AMLogic tools & overwriting a few files extracted from a working TX3pro-specific firmware (I believe I overwrote UBOOT.USB, boot.partition, bootloader.partition, DDR.USB, image.cfg, and removed _aml_dtb.PARTITION), I was able to boot yours to the boot logo - but no further.
The stock firmware in question is here.
The bottom of this thread contains a few more.
This one was also successfully tested.
Would it be possible to create an adapted firmware? A pointer to the backend steps involved in doing so would also be helpful, I'm quite motivated in experimenting with this device. I will solder up the serial header for further debug output shortly. Thank you!

Nice work. I'm glad to already see some custom ROMs (well, in that case, SOM).
However, this is the first time I encounter a SOM, is it just a Magisk module that can be turned on and off at will, switching between stock and Mars? Or shouldn't I do that?

Sorry for the Issues! Could You try again now? I have removed the Vendor stuff for now...
Can You also try to use them seperated? I do actually not own the 1 III so i can't test Myself. Feel also free to collab. with Me on GitHub

Hi what do you mean by use them separated? Like install/activate the base module, reboot, then do the system module?
Yep, it could be one of them or both which causes the Bootloops. I updated the Base so it might be that... The System should cause less Problems at the end... @tonysunshine
I also got a bootloop after installing the zips. I tried following the instructions on your github and was able to do the device simulation with the props config module, but can't follow the next step "Download and extract the NgaResources.apk to /MARS_SOM_SYSTEM/system/product/app/NgaResources" as there's no NgaResources.apk file anywhere on the github that I can find. Could it be this missing file that's causing issues?
Xperia 1 III here.
I followed the steps on github and everything went smoothly even after I flashed the MARS_SOM_BASE zip. However, after flashing the MARS_SOM_SYSTEM , I stuck in a bootloop. I have downloaded the MARS_Product_Overlay apk and place it.
I am willing to help if you need further info.

Wow, I'm glad the BASE zip worked so far. You are getting a lot out of it. But I'm pretty sure there will be bugs around somewhere...
And thanks a ton for Your Post! I'm on the go but if You want to test around...
Move folders out of the _SYSTEM /system Folder like /product, /vendor and so on. Start with removing all except for one Folder and try if it boots up. If You can tell Me which folder causes issues or even which files will I handle it on GitHub for You.

I wanna help but recovering from bootloop is a real pain in my a**. I somehow managed to disable all magisk moudules and get out of boot loop but I am not sure if I can do it again. The only two methods I knew about getting out od a bootloop is removing modules with TWRP but currently 1 iii doesn't have one, the other method is using the adb command but I am not sure how to send adb commands to the phone while it stucked in a bootloop.
Any ideas?

You can simply hold Volume down while booting to get into "Recovery Mode". It disables all Modules and most Apps. You can reboot from that into the normal state again... Should mention that somewhere I think... (It's a Magisk Feature too)
Edit: Does not work with USB Connected! Hold Volume down after You see the Bootloader Unlocked Message. Keep holding until You are in Android
Edit 2: Think Ill make Video guides too for some needs if there is enough Interest...
