After multiple rounds of trial and error. This is what I've discovered to make AOTG work.

I did all the 4 steps below which posted by marcus_bread

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)


• my Mi box firmware still running on Android 6.01 build 1304, didn't update to build 1901
• I have sideload the latest version of Astro Go v8.1.93, it crashed upon opening. (stuck at a black screen)
• Astro Go v8.0.4.2 is now working without problem which I downloaded from androidrepublica.website
Look for AOTG.apk in http://androidrepublica.website/Apk/

• If those having problem at FIRST LAUNCH TO SIGN IN on your Astro Go v8.0.4.2. (stuck at a black screen)
Even change the default keyboard layout in the mi box to gboard (Google) OR pinyin keyboard OR open with mouse OR game pad still crash.
Try this:
Go to your mi box settings > Apps > mi box settings > Open
This helps to load the login page so that u can key username/passw of your astro acc.
once login authenticated on the AOTG app, you can just launch the app in sideload launcher.

Hope this helps.
Thanks to you guys notworthy.gif , without your help here and there, we'd still be in the dark, AOTG still crash at launch bangwall.gif
