First thing first, you need to find out what is the root apk pre-installed, is it SuperSU from Chainfire ?

If modded apk won't launch, then unmodded apk also won't launch. The problem is hppytv box is too old for AstroGo.

Actual decoder sure best best la...

Boxes and smart tvs.... PQ can vary from one to another... better quality devices will deliver better PQ.

Speed... stable 15mbps will be enuf for this app.

yes, i agree.
you think astro will allow 4k uhd for astro go in future?

the uhd decoder do dual mode, dish + internet to achieve uhd

this is good to know.
we now know, for AndroidTV (ATV) os, besides shieldTV, minix T5 can also do astrogo nicely.

do u happen to use home theater?
if yes, can u do me a favor, see if this box can playback (with kodi or other player app) ) own videos on HDD and passthru dtshdma and ddtruehd audio?
TQVM!

Thanks for the suggestion.

Let say I drop ATV. Suddenly feel this is better because my most use cases is non ATV apps like AOTG and Directv.
Yet still  ATV apps can run without issue on non ATV OS right.

revised requirement:
1) able to run AOTG HD smoothly.
2) must be android 9 at least
3) usb 3.0
5) able to output 4k 60fps smoothly
6) passthrough DTS MA & Dolby THD

What box can best fit? Budget 400-500. Generally I want a box that can last longer (>3 years), so build quality must good.
I am waiting bro AVfan to do review on TX3 (S905X3).
*
TX6 already met your requirements
6) hdmi but not optical

Regular android can do all apps.
The distinct issue is they can never get netflix hd approval... this is only given to some ATV devices.
But if yr tv already has netflix, this is unimpt.

Of the 6 requirements, i can tell u the most difficult one is no. 6.
Becos box makers focus on video... online streaming, gaming.
Very few incl audio as an essential feature.
Some can do atmos even but only for online streams, not local playback.
Some pass thru core dts, dd, dd+ only, cannot do higher.
Local playback with full audio features, auto framte rate or AFR, bluray full menus are not common.

I did consider Ugoos am6, am6 pro.
From the reviews, it should do astrogo once u switch to unroot.
Hd audio, AFR, these should be ok.
I decided not to go for it becos for rm600-700, i may wanna wait for minix u22-xj or next himedia model.
These 2 brands are proven when it comes to audio capabilities.
So, i go cheap with tx3 s905x for now, see it is good enuf. tongue.gif

i like the word cheap so we can buy new box every time release new model
