I thought can disable the low space notification in ES File Explorer settings?
Hmm, perhaps they issued an update to that effect or it was not available on the free version, cuz at the time of uninstalling, I don't recollect ever seeing such an option.

make sure to get atleast 4gb ram android tv box..else will lag
Err.. What talk you? I had a 1GB RAM box once and used properly, no "lag"... This isn't Windows on a PC we are talking about. I will let you know that some boxes with 2GB RAM can play certain media files (smoothly) that would crash or freeze on even most PCs with 4GB RAM and above.

ok…since today talking about file manager, let me share (or re-share) more about box softwares for new comers.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
tv box softwares:
1. the operating system
- of course we talk about android here, old version like kitkat and lollipop still works but new box now shipped with marshmallow and nougat. for tv box, latest android not necessary the best because it still depends on the box firmware. well, if u found offer on old box, u still can buy it as long it is lollipop and above. fyi, kitkat uses dalvik runtime while lollipop onwards use ART runtime. but don't assume if you get latest android version and your box will be future proof. no such thing.
2.firmware
- here's the difference in stability and compatibility between boxes. nvidia, minix, wetek, himedia, zidoo, and some other well known companies develop better firmware than those generic no brand tv box (always but not definitely). good firmware ensures local files and online contents play smoothly. hd audio video decoding capability yada yada bla bla bla…
3. audio and video players
- good firmware bundled with good audio and video players. if no, perhaps you can install mx player v1.8.6 and above. for dolby and dts audio decoding, you could google yourself about custom codec for mx player. again, latest version not necessary the best because tv box is not using touchscreen and mx player doesn't have a dedicated version for tv box.
4. file manager and browser
- these 2 apps are most use apps other than video player or video streaming apps. stock file manager and browser are totally fine get the job done. for better experience, you can try asus file manager and file commander. for me, both firefox and chrome are good browsers for tv box if you use with wireless keyboard mouse / touchpad. any alternative? personally i use brave browser which resemblance to chrome.
5. live tv streaming apps
- there are paid and legal, paid but illegal, free and legal, free but illegal. the legal one you could most probably find in google play store, while the illegal one you might need to find and download the .apk file and install yourself. discussion has been going on and on, new comers gonna do your homework and use the search button.
6. video on demand (vod)
- normally we will install kodi (formerly known as xbmc) or spmc, find related repo, then install the vod service from the repo. question: where to find the related repo? new comers gonna do your homework again and please use the search button within the related thread.
of course, live tv could be in both .apk form or kodi repo, same goes with video on demand.
7. launcher
- normally the stock launcher works best. so choose the tv box with the launcher you like the most. of course you can install 3rd party launcher from google play store, but later you will find it either too bloated, not stable, or not optimised for tv box navigation.
Thanks for the piece... Now, we hope those in need of it actually read through.
