is there any model/brand of androidbox that is unroot like minix?

majority of brands and boxes come unrooted.

note unrooted does not automatically mean astrogo will work!


mikeee, paging u to comment a bit more in this dedicated thread. biggrin.gif

There are 2 main thing to stream video successfully using Astro app.
1. Not rooted - so that u can run the app
2. Widevine implementation on your device - so that you can stream DRM protected videos

For mibox , so far only the international version have the necessary widevine implementation to stream Astro DRM videos. If no widevine, u can run the app but u will only be able to stream non DRM protected videos via the app such as go shop channel. When u try to stream DRM protected channels u get the black loading screen only

but i am not so sure if that's all to it.

becos some hyppbox users say they can make it work; some cheap boxes also users can hide root and it works.

does that mean such unrooting or root hiding somehow brings about widevine/DRM decoding/decryption as well? hmm.gif

No ler, from what I understand widevine implementation can only be done in factory or in house. A certified PC is required to implement it.

Can refer this thread for more info

Maybe those boxes does have widewine implemented , who knows haha. To confirm, need to run DRM info app and check. Probably with enough statistics, we can come to a solid conclusion.

that'll be the day! biggrin.gif

this question also applies to unifi playtv which works on some boxes, not on others.

i have tried both at length, various versions, modified ones on about many devices... still, i can't determine exactly why they behave as such! laugh.gif

Specific ones.. OS versions dependent. All LG TVs are not equal.

Hey you should check out the Mi Laser Projector 150" from Xiaomi. I looked into it for a bit when released and it seemed promising.
HiMedia Q10 Pro, Minix boxes like the Neo U1 and Neo U9-H, These 3 have been confirmed by multiple forummers, including myself (I use the Minix Neo U1) to run AOTG.. On the cheaper side, the Mecool M8S Pro L, a sub RM300 box just might be able to run it too. I just got one for a friend and will be setting it up next week. So will know for sure if it does or not.

Hi, did you managed to get the McCool to run AOTG at the end?

Yes. But you might have to install Magisksu and hide root from the app, for it to work.

Via Playstore or alternative source? Play store geo restrict installation. Assuming if I am in Danok Thailand or Singapore.

Minix A3 Air mouse doesn't seem to be able to navigate Astro Go effectively. Any other alternative controller to navigate Astro Go smoothly?

the app is built for touchscreen... phones, tablets.

can't do that with tv.

next best thing is to drag with the air mouse cursor.

as long as u can get everything, ok... right?

Just subscribe unifi with unifi STB. New box so no playstore. Manage to install AOTG and tried run it first time. Been getting ‘purchase service temporary unavailable’. Anyone have any walkaround this issue? No playstore so unable to log in ID.

It works.. Use the gyro function and press the Android logo (or enter) to select..
