Please try to select your keyboard as Hindi version and try again.
Also remember to install Set Orientation app as well.

Yeah... got the Astro Go to run properly ady.
TQ for other sifu comment also.

For those new mibox user here some advise on Astro Go:
1. Download Astro Go APK then move the APK file to thumbdrive
2. Install ES File Explorer and Set Orientation (set the orientation to automiatic)
3. Plug in thumbdrive to mibox and use ES File Explorer to open and install the Astro Go
4. Change ur keyboard setting to other keyboard type (Do not use the default Leanback keyboard)
5. Open the Astro Go and u are good to go log in and watch.
6. If u are having problem at the logging page (i.e. run very slow), try change ur wifi in mibox
(for my case, my house is Unifi and it seem to stuck in logging page for the initial log in. So use my phone hotspot, Maxis to connect the Mibox and log in is very fast)
7. After log in then change back to my house wifi. DONE

To add: please get a Wireless Keyboard + Mouse for easy navigation. If you prefer to use your computer wireless it is also possible. I have test logic tech mouse. It works.

Maybe you could try adding it as Nexus player?

Thanks, but I figured it out.

It's my TV's CEC. So the Harmony turns off my TV first, which turns off the Mi Box, and a split second later Harmony sends a power toggle to the Mi Box which turns it back on, hence the blinking white light. doh.gif

Set the Harmony to never turn off the Mi Box and all OK now.

Oh, so basically double power toggle command
Would be great if Logitech introduce another remote with mike to use with google assistance or alexa

Hi,

I have a Mi Box 4 K international, I noticed some apps like Redbox TV  or Mobdro when it play - eg. news, it run fine, however every 3.5 - 4 minutes, it get lag and hang.

I have to get out of it and start again. This happen every 3.5 - 4 minutes every time.

Any idea? Someone have the same experience ?

I have already added extra 8GB USB internal storage to it. There is plenty of space.

I am using Time dot Net. Is it the ISP provider or the server side issue?

Hi I tried my usb-lan internet with static ip as below.

gateway: 255.255.255.0
network prefix: 24
dns1: 8.8.8.8
dns2: 8.8.4.4

after that i restart my unit again. however the internet connection seem does not work.

Mi Box doesn't ask for subnet mask but network prefix. In this case 24 is correct. CIDR notation equivalent of 255.255.255.0

Thanks to all. Able to set the gaateway correctlly now. There is no difference with dhcp.

Some of the live tv will run few minutes then stop and then continue.

before this i add the google dns ips into the wireless router. it was even worst. after running 3-4 mintues, it freeze or hang here.

i added other dns ips and it get better.

it is due google dns?

any other good dns ips.

That's a pretty basic feature really, any box can do that
You're planning to get the international version?
