Greetings, folks! I am a proud owner of a Xiaomi MiBox (3) International Version, since I really wanted to get into Android TV (Leanback) for my next TV box.
-Countered the problem of Wifi-Only (no ethernet) on the box by purchasing an additional USB 3.0 hub with Ethernet.
-The next problem was that no custom launchers (to allow sideloaded non-Leanback app integration) can be set and I did not wanna root (yet). Solved it by installing an app called "Launch on Boot" and "Button Mapper" to change the Home Button response to using the Launcher "TVLauncher 3".
-Sideloaded "Gallery" and "Wallpapers" by Google to allow wallpaper changes on the launcher.
-Some apps, like "APKPure" had Screen Orientation issues (was sideways portrait mode instead of landscape). Solved the issue by sideloading the app "Set Orientation".
Also bought a nice Bluetooth Keyboard/Touchpad remote with a dongle. "External Keyboard Helper Pro" was a great addition to my app collection.
Added Airplay through "AirReceiver", also sideloaded "Aptoide TV", "Firefox" (because it has addons), "Telegram" (to send links over) and an "Amazon Video" (Prime) for TV from here.
Using "Yatse" and the "Remote starter" (WOL) plugin to launch "Kodi" on it. Also found a File Manager with a memory and cache cleaner that automatically boosts the performance, it's called Manager plus.
-"Soundcloud" was also sideloaded, if somebody is looking for a functioning Kodi addon, let me know - somebody forked and partially fixed it on Github.
I'm finally satisfied with the result, performance is outstanding for 1080p.
Any suggestions to further tweak the setup are welcome. So far my only problem is that I cannot use the option to "Create" custom icons in the launcher, regardless of what file manager and photo app I install. If you need links to any of the applications or products mentioned drop a comment and I shall add them to the thread.
Cheers!

Thanks for this useful article. Also just bought a mibox. Can you kindly advise how to use the button mapper as I am also using Tvlauncher 3. Could you also confirm the file explorer you are using....the main interest being the cache and memory cleaner. Thanks
Many thanks for this nice write-up mate...you have mentioned about a File Manager with a memory and cache cleaner that automatically boosts the performance, mind sharing the name of the app pls?
Hello I have a problem with my xiaomi box because I had it updated in android 8.0 but because of this update the box does not recognize the ethernet adapter that I had bought. I will have a way to fix this bug

Same problem here! Mi Box 3, Android 8.0.0 and no Ethernet signal using an Ugreen 3x Hub & Ethernet adapter... I'm desperate!
The UGreen ethernet adapter is working fine for me in Oreo.
Have you setup fixed IP or USB debug enabled? Those are the reasons were the hub usually don't work in Oreo

That sounded like chinese for me...
Ok, I have just activate Developer Mode and enable USB Debug, but nothing happened... Do I need to do anything more?
Regarding the fixed IP, where can I read the necessary data in the computer?

First disable usb debugging and then go to SETTINGS /network/ip settings and choose DHCP.
USB Debugging disabled and DHCP already were in the settings of my Mi Box. That's not the problem...
Thank you guys!

it is worth to try, bause i am working with a lot of IPcam stuff for hospitals on child stations. Will report back here.
I was looking for something like this a while back, will give it a try as it should save taking a web-cam away on business.
Will try out and let you know. First thing, would prefer cab install option if possible I know there are client drivers needed for windows side too I guess).
Noticed that the video overlay for the camera does not go when the program is closed. So far I've not been able to connect, but this is probably due to my network config at the moment (so will retry later).
I remember using this looong ago when I had my HTC Mogul... those were the days
how do i connect this to my server? i have set the ip adress and it cannot connect

I think you connect via the webcam driver settings. i.e. VLC
Media -> Open Capture Device
Select Video device name - it should be in the list
Configure - Will open if the device is present and you should be able to press connect. You might see it pop up a message on your device when you do (too quick to read - i guess connecting etc).
Hopefully you'll get the images coming through (I get coloured striped display but that is probably due to the network I'm currently on has proxies etc).
I tried to use it on my HTC HD2 running Artemis 58 with radio 2.15......
I cannot seem to connect it to my computer via WiFi. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi,
Have tried this on my HTC-HD2 and it say register to use free period is over.
Any other solution?
Cheers!
Is this the same as this?

I've had success using it previously on my Blackjack II (WinMo 6.0). And I've tried to run it on my hTc Pure (WinMo 6.5), but it keeps freezing up.
so it is now pay ware so far we can see. For this there is a special forum thread. Possible the admin can move it to there...
But there is the other solution from rc colonel - RC Camera (Link). I working with that a very long time.

I use it a very long time now for parents who's childs are in a hospital. We have installed some axis ptz cams (4x) in a hospital near my home city (~ 20 KM). We advise this to the parents for the mobile device or via a website on the PC. I have informed rccolonel some time ago to have a special version, but i think he is no longer online or busy with android. So i hope he will read this .
BTW:
in my free time i am working in a special community for this kind of stuff (paper, color pens, toys, hospital clowns, and...and...and...).

follow this link and you can download the latest beta from rc camera

rc-camera differs to this app since it's for using an ip-camera and the phone as a monitor, where this one attempts to use the phone's camera as the web-cam. I like the idea, but so far it doesn't work the way I've tried it (clearly it's not trivial thing to code).
BTW:
Well (to be slightly off topic here) I'll let you know if I get on with an Android app I have planned which will be suitable for children reading, might end up being of use. Can't get a better cause than that to be involved with!
cant seem to get it working
i installed the cab and that automatically installed it on my phone (omnia i900) when i open the app on my phone it displays the camera, but when i tap the "start" button it kinda freezes, the little rotating icon ippear and its like "thinking" but it never really conects, right now am using "mobiola web camera" and it does work but i dont like the output quality of it, the resolution and quality es too low, so i tought id try this put, but nope, nothing.

I'm using the MarketAccess app with latest market version and it works flawless. I did not liked the original icon and also the fact that the icon title was not spanning properly on the screen. So I edited the original .apk and replaced the icon as well the title.

Is there any basic guide on how to best use this?
MarketAccess is a branch of MarketEnabler. Personally, I use its very basic function.
With the Market closed, I go to:
Market Access > Providers > T-Mobile
Then, I open the Market and install any US restricted apps. Once I'm done with it, I reboot the phone and the default settings are automatically restored. As I said, pretty simple and basic.
From what I understood, you did not create this, (correct me if I'm wrong ) therefore it doesnt belong in the development section
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
What kind of useful apps are US only?
My favorite are:
Amazon Mobile
Google Books
Google Music
Google TV Remote
Netflix
Not sure if Books are now open to everyone, they just added Google Videos to Canada.
Personally, I live 45min from the US border and I have an US address/credit card. We have Netflix in Canada but the selection really sucks, compared to US.
I use a E4200 DD-WRT router as PPTP server with US IP's to all my devices (Google TV, mobile, tablet, etc.) when I'm at home. For example, you need an US IP to upload your music to Google Music site but you can use any IP to download/broadcast Music/Video's to any of your mobile devices. I know is not easy, but is worth the trouble. It really sucks that we have all those restrictions.
At least I can get all my music anywhere, without taking any space on my mobile.

Credit is clearly given into OP, I certainly hope is not going to ruin your day.
I saw many mods posted here (if you can call my change a mod... took me 2min to modify the APK), so I think is the best place for it, since is not related to Original Android development.
MOD = modification of an existing application created by someone else
There are tons of MOD threads listed in this forum, from what I saw.
Still, if I'm wrong, please let me know what would the the appropriate forum so I post there next time.

Mate it seems to be working partially with the new market 3.1.5
You can see the currency changed to USD but you can't see the regional apps.
Could someone confirm this ?
Thanks.
It's true. I found a trick for this maybe it's too much of a headache but if you want to use new market then what you have to do is
1. Install market access.
2. Go emulate say for example t mobile.
3. Go to settings/applications/manage/ and then uninstall the updates for market. .
4. So now you have the old market. Now open the market.
5. Then wait for some time. Since it is connected to t-mobile it will update to new market.
6. Now you can download all the apps you want with new market.
The thing is it only works till restart. Then you have to repeat all the steps again.
Big hassle I know but if you absolutely have to use the new market then this is one way. Cheers.
P. S. Simply use old market with market access and freeze market updater using titanium backup to avoid all the hassle and use US APPS.

Can you give me an example of app that does not work?
I'll test it on my phone with Market 3.1.5 and let you know guys. So far all apps worked for me, I'm in Canada.
Edit: I think I know why is probably not working for some of you.
You need an US IP address as Wi-Fi spot. My DD-WRT router is set as PPTP server and broadcasts an US IP through wireless as well wired connections. So when my phone connects to the market, it does it through an US IP. Using the VPN directly into phone will not cut it.
Nice

Great stuff. Could someone explain the connection to the wireless controller? OTG, what's that in relation to a cable?
Just waiting for a UK update
Just to clarify, do you have to wire your PS3 controller the first time to get it to work then you can go wireless? Or do you have to wire it every single time?
You have to use the sony cable SGPUC1 to first sync with the tablet, after that you will not need it anymore. Unless you lost the pairing.

Updated the first post. So far, Japan got the update.
Those who have updated, please give some feedback on your device region.
Back to the update, I noticed the new Android Market, loads much faster. And, the Wifi disconnection issue has improved. Wifi connection immediately restored when waking up from sleep-mode.
I'm here in Toronto and the update installed just fine.
I'll hopefully get access to a PS controller tomorrow to test it out.

Well, with root, install any other launcher, remove the apk of launcher, move to a safe place.
Reboot and launcher will work.
After that, intall again the launcher and you can choose between both or any you have.
I have another question...

Well, I dont find the way to do it without removing from system.
The file you must remove is mitvdesktop. only that
IDK if are any risk, but as I tell you, you can reboot into recovery and restore original firmware, so no risk
you can after remove the mitvdesktop reinstall it as user app simpli executing it, and will work as any other launcher, you can choose and set default any you want, the original, and 3º party ones.
thank you for reply.
i did your way, works fine, press home in remote to go smart launcher.
thank you.

well, Im working on port another rom to the phone, but Im stuck when I try to uncompress or mount system.img dumped from a working device.
I export the backup image too, but same result.
Have someone success with that? Is my first mediatek device...
Maybe based on firetv 2 source we can build something better than xiaomi's rom
?✌
It works great, the hardware is a beast! The only important issue I encountered so far is that sometimes it exits the video player, some other times just pauses the playback on Netflix, every 10 minutes or so. On You Tube it exits fullscreen mode, which can be quite annoying. The only solution I could find is this:
- In Settings (not the Chinese app, but the one that comes inside Shafa Market, or even better, make a google search for "startSettings.apk", download it , then install it on your Mi Box, this way you´ll no longer need Shafa Market), go to About the Phone section, and click repeatedly on the Build Version, till you are granted Developer rights.
- Back to Options, go to Developer Options, and change the number of background processes from Standard to None. You´ll have to repeat this last step every time the box reboots, but not after sleep/wake.
Done.

Thats problem in your storage, backup and format it...

Hi!
My mibox when I turn off sleep mode, do not switch off/disconnect the USB HDD. The old (black pro) is always switched off. I do not like spinning all night, bluster. What could be wrong?
Thanks.

Not so sure about it, I had to restore it several times, and done already a couple of updates so far, but the problem is still there. My brother has one, too, and he bought some more for his friends, all those devices act this way at some point during video playback. I suspect it has to do with some app doing something in the background.
Besides, I wouldn´t even know how to format the internal storage (I don´t have anything inserted in the USB ports except for an air mouse), should I connect it to the computer, and reformat it? Wouldn´t it mean that the restore partition would be gone, too? And why would Xiaomi sell it without the proper formatting? It just doesn´t make any sense. It works great, once I stop the background processes, it wouldn´t work if the partition had any problem, don´t you think?
For those who experiment the same issues, I would suggest do it as I did, it´s much less complicated.

how to make it support rotation?
Hi all,
I just bought a new XIAOMI 3 TV box enhanced edition. Everything is fine , root , install third party's application. But I hope it can support screen rotation. I tried several screen rotation application and all failed. The screen just keeps landscape. So is it possible to make the screen rotation, like portrait ? Should I use non-stock rom ? if it is , where can I find such kind of rom ? Or just some limitation with the pre-installed rom?
Help please.
Thanks!

Thanks! I try this.
Port for DATA and USB-debugging connection.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3rOUWE9mBs-dTYzWTlRNVUxeGM/view
Connecting to PC you need 2 x USB cables for it,
(I had 2x useless USB cables)
connected like these (color with color).
Switched the USB-debugging "ON" on my TV BOX,
the drive appears on my PC..... very nice
