Sorry to hear that my bro... sad.gif  I am not sure if the mod tweaked for bravia only, but my friend also had a try on his cheap made-in china android box and it worked except few graphic issues.
The official apk doesnt work on mine. I think we should wait for other fully working mods some day (hopefully there will be someone who brings us good news on thjs)
*
for my sharp tv, the modded apk and the official one is the same - SD channels ok; live HD, not smooth, unwatchable.

it has been like that for many versions now - official or modded.

but it's not a problem for me... i have 3 other boxes that work fine with the official apk.


for smart ATV, users probably need to wait for official one that has just finished testing.

if quality is better and not too expensive, not a problem paying for subscription.

using astrogo beats the illegal streams for sure.

Using Android boxes to install the regular Astro Go app to watch Astro from a legal Astro subscription account.

Does that makes it illegal, or still legal?  hmm.gif
*
Why illegal?

Same thing if u use it on pc or phone or smart tv.

I have not come across any app that says by this law, it can only be used on a certain phone of a certain brand.

just to share some experience on my new box HK1 S905X3 4gb+32gb

this box perform quite well and smooth for AOTG both Live channel & catch up on demand.


My previous boxes like A95X Max (S905x2) & Beelink GT-King (S922X) can run smooth AOTG as well but got 1 issue playing on demand catch up video, the chinese Drama i watched will have a black bar (like phone Navigation Bar) on top , it only appears to certain catch up drama, the solution is after the drama theme song finished, u have to quit the drama back to home screen then select continue watching then the drama will full screen without the annoying top black bar. HK1 doesn't have this issue unlike A95X Max & Beelink GT King

Another point i like about this box is i plug this box to my samsung smart TV HDMI 2, even i play other source video from HDMI 1 or HDMI3 or the TV built in apps like NETFLIX and YOutube, when i go back to source HDMI 2, the astro channel still running unlike A95X MAx will went to sleep mode and quit the AOTG apps, i have to re open the Apps everytime and go back to the channel i selected previously.

This 2 point make me feel satisfy with the HK1 like i really have Astro Decoder in my home. Just My own opinion.

Oh ya, the box itself is rooted so i have to unroot it myself using Impactor Universal Unroot apps downloaded from playstore. Simple one click then the box will restart and after restart no more detected as rooted device but is still saw the SuperSU apps, i don know whether this is fully unrooted but as long as i can run AOTG i'm done.

thanks for posting. this is good to know.

I somehow have a feeling that there might be 1 or few imposters among us, where the imposter(s) might be Astro Go's software development team.
And their mission is to stalk this thread very closely, get some intel and then block Astro Go access to the Android boxes as much as possible (since they can claim that it is not officially optimised for Android box use)...  shocking.gif

Suddenly I feel the forum is not safe anymore  sad.gif

we can be sure there are spies.

but there are like ten thousand box models... gudluk trying to kill all of them one by one.

have you tried to logout and login back ? if it works then i will try again.
*
yes. see abovementioned post of mine.

one thing i can advise u... sometimes it takes a few seconds for the verification to go thru.

if it says "fail", exit, go back in again... it may work then... i have seen this.


all said, i have to qualify myself - i do not know why some have success with tanix tx3mini/max/s905x3, tx6 while others fail.

that is puzzling for sure.

Just ordered TOX1 android box for the AOTG use case.
It is using Ugoos alike firmware. Curios to try AOTG on it.

i asked an Ugoos AM6 seller once, he said cannot do it.

Anyone having problem on new version 293XXXX? I downloaded from apkpure but encountered error "There is a problem parsing the package". Been updating from the same site since last year all went through smoothly. I am using Minix box
*
Yes, the new version is able screw a few more boxes, i think.

I got one that is affected, cannot work.

2 more... tx3 max and tx3 s905x are ok.


So.... the search for modified apk heats up....

The way I see it, they will charge the same for ATV version as a full satellite subscription. That's why they are killing all the android TV boxes so that the free 4 Astro Go with each subscription can only be viewed on small screens. Business mah!
*
they cannot charge ATV same as decoder - video+audio quality different, nobody will pay.

lower price for ATV, possible.

but i see they have no will change to this biz model.

more interested to hold on to decoders/control/higher charges... and F the rest.

there is no astrogo version that works on an ATV.

working fine on me too, but no longer can upgrade to latest apk

enjoy for as long as u can.

if now version cannot work, a matter of time old one will stop working.

they spent a lot of money to stop us! laugh.gif


well, seems they are trying out a new "HD box".... the photos are astrogo to me.

looks like they may start selling own boxes, only their own box can use astrogo, eventually.

Because they'd rather see customers to subscribe to an actual Astro subscription, rather than spending almost little to no money on them by using Astro Go app to watch Astro, which doesn't financially benefit them much.

QUOTE(chkwong @ Jan 2 2021, 05:25 PM)
Why not? If the PQ is really FHD or UHD, I don't mind. Not like the freaking lousy PQ UPB (from unifi) which is a lower quality than the white STB.
*
they r taking too long to decide if they shud launch an "internet based" app like netflix. or unifi playtv for that matter.

while netflix and unifi allows qualified devices to use their apps as long as they pay a subscription, astrox seems uncomfortable with it.

it is obvious they wish to keep a total monopolistic model, hate and fear competition - whether programs or hardware.

the stock price over the years says everything about their biz model... gudluk. tongue.gif

guys, this has been said many times, i just repeat: biggrin.gif

tx3mini, tx3max, tx3 s905x3... they come in slightly diff hardware, firmware, builds, dunno what else...

there is no guarantee they all work the same when it comes to AxGo.

i have both tx3mini (converted to max) and tx3 s905x3 for >1 year now.

both good from the beginning until now, no hassle.

just make sure it i set to unrooted, that's all.

no need modified versions, webview... i dun even know what these are!

why it doesn't work for some is a mystery that is hasn't been solved.


about standby/shutdown, my experience is standby mode is fine, starts up and off at lightning speed.

but once in a while, it is good to do an actual shutdown to clear cache, garbage, etc, i suppose.

cheers.

Guys, what's the current status for astro go app actually?
Last time got beta but already closed
There's the usual astrogo apk but not optimized for android box (needs air mouse since touch based)
*
same-same.

current version does not work on ATV.

it works on some generic boxes like some tanix models but not the rest.
