QUOTE(Orzie @ May 17 2018, 03:55 PM) Hi All, just to share - I managed to flash my Chinese ROM to International ROM for my Mibox 3S (Model number MDZ-19-AA)!! I followed this link: http://en.miui.com/thread-804634-1-1.html Below are the photos of the International ROM interface. Able to access Google Playstore to download apps. Able to login in Crunchyroll, Spotify etc with no issue. However you will need to sideload (download and install apk manually into the mibox directly) Netflix and other apps. It wont work if you download it from Playstore. ES File Explorer is your best buddy in sideloading apps: 1) Download the aok via pc. 2) Open APK folder in Dropbox. 3) Sync it to ES file explorer. 4) Directly install the apk from Mibox. I use Minimal ADB and Fastboot on my pc for all the debugging, you can just google and download it on your pc. Now, I just need to purchase a premium IPTV package to watch live channels, movies and erhem contents... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

QUOTE(edge81 @ May 22 2018, 10:46 AM) my Mi Box remote finished a set of batteries in under 2 months. Does it drain that fast? Did you turn off your mibox or not? You could just buy rechargeable. The moment I read it's Bluetooth remote, I already bought rechargeable.How long does batteries last for other Mi Box users ? |

Hi all, if i switch off the mibox by using the power button on the remote, but leave the power switch connected to the mibox on, is this considered complete power off? I'm a bit worried if the box is somehow still running and will shorten its lifespan.
Btw, zekaisi store on Lazada is selling Mibox international version at around RM240 (previouly 289) before code discount. FYI for those who wish to get one. |

I'm a bit worried if the box is somehow still running and will shorten its lifespan. The box is never really off unless u turn off the power supply. Have been using it for almost a year now, still working. Hopefully can last another year then it's good enough hahaBtw, zekaisi store on Lazada is selling Mibox international version at around RM240 (previouly 289) before code discount.

I turn off by the remote, but box is left with power supply on. and it does some times wake again on it's own. think I should consider power supply off now. probably not powering off means still has drain from the bluetooth connection? Yes i also just got rechargeable batteries for this. |

I bought a mi box android tv version for my mom to watch astro and unifi play tv. I managed to install the Astro Go apk and the app launches fine. However, on the login page I can't click or choose anything. When I click on the remote /a wireless mouse / controller, it says "no app can handle this request".
I'm using version 8.1.98 and have also tried 8.1.93 but both have the same problem. I have also changed the default keyboard to Indic keyboard and also tried Pinyin and others but same result. Hope someone can shed some light on how to fix this problem. Thanks. Attached picture is not mine, but its the same screen where I get stuck. Attached thumbnail(s)
