Thanks a lot bro.
Managed to sideload the AOTG app 8.2.6.

Now just trying to deal with the screen orientation issue and mouse scrolling issues.

At least you gave me somewhere to start! Appreciate it bro.

On another note, I was naively under the impression that AOTG would fully supported and work on boxes like the Mi Box. Such a disappointment that Astro doesn't support their customers using different ways to access their services.

I have 3 decoders at home and I wanted this Mi Box for my bedroom TV as I mostly watch Netflix but sometimes would want to watch Astro.

Astro wants you to use AstroGo on handphone and nothing else.

Too many issues of AstroGo on mibox. You should just use another box. Save time. But whatever boxes there is still scrolling issue.

astrogo built for mobile has never been fully supported on any non-mobile device - box or smart tv.
however, users could sideload old versions incl v8.2.6 and make it work.
the trouble is v8.2.6 may be decommissioned by 30 sep... so, u can keep using until then.

u can try out new version but so far, ATV devices suffer from judders on HD live channels.

hopefully, a modified working ATV version will emerge in time.
the good news is this new version does work fine on many other regular android boxes.

Hey guys, anyone know if there's anywhere I can purchase the Mi Box S in store in KL/Subang thats not too much more expensive than what you can get on Lazada and Shopee?

Only reason is that I have the next few days off and it would be nice if I could pick it up and enjoy it rather than having to wait for delivery.

I've seen it at All IT Hypermarket at Digital Mall but it's almost double the price there.

That's better than RM399 at Digital Mall. Don't know if I want it enough to go that far for it.

Will probably order it online tonight if I can't find it anywhere around me for a reasonable price. Just sucks that I'll only get it after I head back to work.

You mean the internet speed?

I can get up to 500mbps in my phone. But I'm not getting the similar result in my mi box. Actually whats the maximum speed this mi box can handle? hmm.gif

Also bro, what apps do you have in your box?

The mibox is essential a low end box. Don't expect it has good CPU speed, good wifi chips, good usb transfer rates. It is only adequately design for it's purpose: streaming video.
