hey guys!

is there anyway to flash the mibox 3 which is in chinese to the international ROM?

Hi sifus!

2 questions here need your help.

1. Anyone of you had try purchase the Xiaomi tv box from China Taobao and then ask the 3rd party seller in Malaysia to help jailbreak it and add Astro iptv? The price for jailbreak+Astro iptv is RM330

2. I'm surveying 2 Xiaomi TV Box from Taobao, the 3S and Enhanced version.
It seems like the enhanced version processor is faster and there is an internal fan. So most likely my option is the enhanced version, of course the price is CNY100 more expensive compare to 3S.

what is different between both?
format as internal drive or use as USB drive?
I currently using 4 USB hub port and plug in my SD Card reader + 32GB SD card as storage

Second, does android support exfat?
My external ssd not able to read

Format as internal drive let you move apps over it. Suggest only move games. Not all support as this depends on how the creator make the apps.

just receivesd my mibox yesterday and it work flawlessly.. never regret!

Finally success disable the useless Mi Recommended bar which only contain 2 apps in Malaysia edition.

How you do it?

To disable the “Mi Box Recommends” row on the Mi Box, simply follow the steps below:

Go to the Settings app
Locate the “Apps” section
Scroll to the System Apps section
Locate the app titled XiaomiLeanbackCustomizer
Click this app and select the Disable option
After confirming that you have disabled the app, reboot your Mi Box

aceedburn] already given the guide.

How to remove HBO Now, HBO Go? I can't uninstall it.

Yours must be the US set. You can try to disable the app if you can’t uninstall it. Use the same method above in the respective app settings.

Bro... whats wrong with the Mi Recommended bar?

No idea. Maybe it is pre-install for US edition

Very wrong. Waste space for only show 2 apps there. Haha!

Brown box not possible got HBO inside unless it is not original either the software itself, or you stay at US.

In Malaysia, can't even find HBO inside the Play Store.
