Since it doesn't look like we will get any more firmware updates I threw this together for myself. It is essentially factory firmware converted to Android TV. After bootup I suggest going to settings and changing to leanback keyboard and turning off sleep.
Unzip, burn .img to KII Pro using Amlogic USB Burning Tool

One dummy question
Is the dtv app like the one in original releases and malysks'??
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The DTV app included is DTV app from the factory firmware. Majority of factory firmware apps were left in although I replaced most on my personal setup. When I find time I will download a new KI or KIII ROM and pull the apks to see if they have been updated or will run on Lollipop. Is the DTV app included with Malaysk's firmware any different from factory? If so you can copy the apk, install it and it should run fine. The main advantage of this ROM is that it is Android TV, so the Google Play store apps are all versions which work well with a remote. You can still install regular Android apps and they should work fine.
thnks
but
ROM OS Version: 2.3.x Gingerbread? why
the dtv from ki pro for test

ROM is 5.1 same as factory firmware. I'm not opposed to looking into updating to 7.x but it is not going to happen this week. Is there a compelling reason or app you have tried that doesn't work? Comment about Gingerbread was a typo when thread was converted to DevDB and has been corrected.

Img is installed with Amlogic Burning Tool but feel free to do with it whatever you like.
i have been looking for an android tv rom for k2 pro for months,i ve found it now and my pc is broken,i think i have to wait untill a twrp version.
I pulled DTV app from new K1/KIII boxes running 7.1 and it will not install. If there is a Marshmallow version I'm happy to try that otherwise the 5.x version will have to suffice.

Can you give me a link to an OTA update or full 6.x ROM? I totally appreciate the desire to have Android 7.x OS it is just a question of how much time one wants to spend.

the kii pro not have android 6, the dtv is from kIII pro s912.
but the Q-bux have android 6 is same cpu
https://chinagadgetsreviews.com/download-android-marshmallow-6-0-1-firmware-q-box-4k-tv-box.html and test the dtv from kIII s912
or for android 7 the Mecool M8S Pro Plus have almost the same cpu and add the dtv from k1 pro (android 7)
https://chinagadgetsreviews.com/dow...-1-firmware-mecool-m8s-pro-plus-tv-box-5.html
take your time
thnks for all
The firmware at the link provided for the QBox is S905x not S905. The Mecool is also S905x. Did any of the "K" DVB Android boxes have Marshmallow firmware? If you could find a link to download an Android 6.x ROM for any of the "K" DVB boxes that would be helpful.

Link corrected, screenshots should now appear
do you add the 3 wifi drivers?
because with the firmware 28/02/2017 it miss a wifi driver for some kii pro they had a different chip to manufacture later
All I did was convert the 28/02/2017. No additional drivers or apps were added. Which firmware had a complete set of WiFi drivers? You can always pull the drivers and add with ES File Explorer.

CUSTOM ROM FOR AMLOGIC DEVICES
Mods: This will eventually turn into a ROM/FIRMWARE soon, not sure if this is correct section to get it started.
This thread is intended to get devs involved in bringing the pure Android TV OS to Amlogic Android TV Boxes.
What I have tried:
Baking a "Stock Amlogic" firmware with the required files for the Leanback launcher.
Modifying the Build.prop to spoof device and get access to Android TV Apps through Play Store (Incompatible with all my devices)
Results: No success.
I wanted to find out if anyone out there have looked into this so we can also experience the pure Android TV OS on our cheap boxes. :laugh:
GOAL: Bake/Port a working ROM for the Amlogic devices that will properly run Android TV apps and the Leanback Launcher.
Please post any suggestion or experiences in doing so the same.
Thanks, and let the baking begin!
Amlogic s805, s905, s812? the lenback launcher my work for me in the mini mx (s905).

What bugs are associated with the launcher ?
Leanback gapps installed correctly on my Mxq Plus s905, but leanback launcher doesn't show suggestions from play movies and YouTube.
Only Android TV keyboard, YouTube and Crakle work correctly with their TV layouts, other apps just crash.
Also Google Cast seems to be installed and running but none of my devices found the Google cast device
---------- Post added at 04:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 AM ----------
The open Gapps github page has a leanback section with previews for all SoC architectures, we only need the core TV system, that would make it finally fully android TV, with the TV play store, TV play movies and all TV apps working perfectly
I maintain the opengapps tvstock mega download page, so if you need newer version or different architect then just ask.

I am currently running on Eragon 3.5 (MM) and the experience is very smooth! Battery lasts all day no problem on moderate use.
Currently Deepflex is working on CM13 and Ressurection ROM (based on CM13), I don't know but I am really sure that he will start working with CM14 too soon.

since you know a lot do you think mtk sources are easy to get or not?
Mtk drivers are prebuilt, so me, Deepflex and JonnyXDA can't modify them, so we wait for mediatek...

Yup, hex-hacking can only get you so far, native libraries are not generally readable by hex editors so (or at least the actual code can't usually be read) so we need to wait for MediaTek to update their stuff and push it to AOSP.
I would really like to see CM14 in p9000, I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 running 7.0 with CM14 and it's awesome.
Can't wait to have 7.0 on this beast
Deepflex is workinf hard to realise it
Hello Guys, I want to change my Android with newer version, because my Android box works on Android 4.4. I want to install newer version of Android like 6.0.1 or newer, but I can't find newer version on Android.

It's because Amlogic never released the updated SDK for that chipset. That's why it's nearly impossible to do it, unless you know porting and can scrape off things from similar chipsets.

The Android firmware on my Tanix TX3 is not able to enable write access to external microSD or USB stick (FAT32) because it seems to lack Android Storage Access Framework (it has no com.google.documentsui app). I tried several file browsers like x-plorer/fx explorer/MiXplorer. See the MiXplorer and FX explorer errors in the attached screenshots. This is really annoying. Anyone who knows a solution (preferably keeping the original firmware with a small edit) ?
TANIX TX3 ALICE UX Amlogic S905x3 Android 9.0 TV Box Firmware Update 20200729 - (geekbuying.com) You may try this firmware
if you can root add documents ui apk to system/app, i had to add this to my android TV 7 ROM, this may work, you can also try my custom rom
This ROM is very cool.

I have a Beelink GT1 mini with Android 8.1 Firmware 115N0 S/N 95X2 and LPDDR 4 RAM about two years old. I now would like to update to Android 9. Beelink says I should not update because my Motherboard is already very old.
What is your opinion - can a update damage my box ? Can I do an Update through SD Card ?
Thanks
