Guys, need recommendation for Android Box. Mainly use for Kodi Quasar, Netflix, Youtube and Music (Tidal and Spotify).

Currently use H96pro+ with Superceleron custom rom, but the box will not play movie smoothly when i stream Kodi quasar and sometimes will freeze and auto restart. Box also occasionally will freeze at the boot loader page and need to restart few time.

Been looking at Himedia Q10pro and Nvidia Shield. Any idea which one suitable for me? Or any other recommendation?
*
quasar is not a stable apps, I too experience freeze and restart... but i don't think it is as frequent as ur...

FYI q10pro and shield is yesteryear product with little ram,
both not suitable for torrent.
in fact there isn't any box in the market with enuf ram except for htpc...

so... keep ur box

Hope someone here can recommend me an android tv box within rm250 thereabouts...

Was browsing lazada n saw a seller's comments saying distance for wifi should be less than 2m.

So im wondering if theres any android tv box with good wifi range? I live in a 2 storey terrace and the wifi router is downstairs (in a cabinet) and the tv is in a room upstairs. Although he did recommend i get a powerline...problem is i dunno my house wiring is 1 phase or 3 phase.

Main usage will be netflix and youtube. All those other channels thing would be great to have too but its secondary...

Any recommendations?
*
2m is bullshit...

u hv 3options
1. if ur handphone/lappie able to watch youtube/netflix in ur room, mean anybox will do
--> or use hp/lappie do a speedtest at fast.com
2. buy tv box with antenna
3. dont connect 5G wifi

Why would you guys be using Netflix where there are countless VOD apps that stream free movies and series etc?

Any other reason besides wanting 4k quality? Maybe you guys just too loaded and dont know where to splurge?

good quality, fast streaming, original content...

and the AI is quite good, the recommendation works great

Can you click on the subscribed channel and see whether you can watch it on play TV? Mine prompt error 111 when i click watch the channel.

after launch the app 2seconds, aotg crash... ... cant even see the subscribe

QUOTE(jhlou @ Nov 5 2018, 02:59 PM)
Sorry cannot help further. 
Maybe try install from Playstore or Aptoide. Your steps are same as mine.
Calling @SzeCheng as he managed to run using same method.

Another tip
Try disable Magisk Hide and run Aotg
Supposedly can run but only can watch Go Shop, Awani
This will determine whether its Magisk or App issue
*
before install magisk, it crash... after this is crash again
cant view anything
anyway thanx... my magisk installed successfully

QUOTE(GuyM @ Nov 5 2018, 03:03 PM)
You use remote or mouse?
*
use remote to go in recovery, use mouse to navigate
---

calling SzeCheng for review
need to know the m8s firmware version and aotg version for compatibility

You need to solve the crash issue without Magisk to eliminate other issues.
My small advice

ya... i JUST notice u all able to login even without magisk

really hv no idea why it crashed

fyi, the unit is virgin when i first install the aotg,
really no idea now

If the box is new and you really want Aotg,  Factory reset and try trouble shoot it first before installing other things.
