Hi guys, do u have trouble turning on tx3 mini from sleep because it doesn't work with mine. I've tried to use both the stock remote and also my airmouse. I can turn on the box from shut down just fine. My tx3 mini runs with android 8.1.

Faulty hdmi cable can affect? 🤔 But the box works just fine, except the wake from sleep one, so i don't think it has anything to do with hdmi cable, if not sure can't watch anything then. Not sure what u mean by special tv, I just have normal lcd one.

My airmouse have IR learning mode which I've managed to programmed the power button and I think it works fine because I can shut down using the power button of my airmouse like I did with stock remote. Both also can turn on the box from shut down, except from sleep mode.

Haven't tried your suggestion yet as I'm away right now.

Yup, brand new, bought from shopee about 3-4 weeks ago and got this problem since day 1. I've asked my seller but it seems like she can't help me much, probably just an outsource seller. Always need to refer her supplier even for simple question. 😅

And yes the stock is IR remote, which I think is the same like every tx3 mini. Both of them are using newly bought batteries. Though I bought the airmouse from different seller, as I said before, everything works just fine, except waking the box from sleep.

Worth to note that I'm using stock firmware and didn't flash anything new as this one can already play latest astro go and playtv just fine. But I do suspect that the firmware is the root cause. Not sure what version but I'll update it here once I got back.


Thanks for the replies, guys. ✌

Edit: Forgot to mention that this tx3 mini is the one with s905w.

Hmm I don't think my TV has that handshake protocols, first time I've heard it.

Also I only have the box attached to the TV.

Thanks man, will get back here soon.

Hmm I've never used this HDMI CEC function before. I just disabled it because not sure how to use. It seems that this HDMI thing is more complicated than I thought. 😅 I'll try to play around and see what happens.
Yup, forgot to mention that this also happens with me, need to disable airmouse mouse mode and then it can go to sleep. No such problem with stock remote but that is understandable. I've also tried with other TV in my house and still got the same problem.
I've googled about this problem and found out that some other users who use other boxes such as mxq, x96, etc albeit very few of them, also got the same problem as mine. This strongly suggest it might has something to do with the box firmware/android version, though I don't know whether it is the same version or not. I think I'll try to do factory reset if everything else fails.

Thank u for your help. ✌
