how to downgrade MI BOX S (MIBOX4)? - Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers

Hi all, I recently updated my mi box s.
Worst thing i could have done.
I use a vodafone tv app to cast from my phone to my mi box. Before the upgrade everything was fine and now the box keeps switching from 4:3 to 16:9 to 4:3 repeatedly.
I cannot cast that app anymore its so annoying.
I need to downgrade to an older version. Does anyone know how?

MDZ-16-AA: Android TV and 4k

Hi to all.
I've flashed my MDZ-16-AA with Android TV rom found somewhere on the Net.
Seems to work almost properly (netflix doesn't work but I don't care about it) except for the fact that i'm unable to use 4K resolution on my 4K TV.
Any advice ? Is possible to upgrade to Android TV 6 ? Currently I'm using Android TV 5.1
Can u share the rom and how to install it...i have the same mi box too and want to change to android tv

Is this a clone of another more known tv box? (x-view droidbox)

Hi there
For many reasons my parents ended up with 2 of this device:
http://x-view.com/audio-video/droid-box
ITs an AMLogic s905 (1gb ram, 8gb storage) device that SHOULD be compatible with the android tv remote (stated on their site).
I updated it right away, and noticed that the playstore and netflix apps on the original firmware were really different from what i know, but after the update they are most likely phone/tablet apps.
Never tested playing a video in netflix or using the remote app on the original firmware.
I would love to update it to something... better ,since now they CAN watch netflix (phone app), but controlling it is a nightmare.
Youtube is the leanback one, and i had to manually update it cause the stock one crashed each time video buffered, and the updated one pauses A LOT (not an internet problem, it works fine on pcs and phones on the same house).
Just getting the android tv control app would fix their netflix woes (i have the youtube issuse with the second device, they dont watch it).
Tried installing a moded netflix for android tv, and it can be controlled ok, but since its widevine L3 device it plays only 1 second or so.
i was able to restore the original firmware.
Now most apps are the android tv ones, and the remote app from google works.
Netflix is still the phone app, and control still sucks on it XD
Hi, could you solve the Netflix issue?

Nope, still using the Netflix phone app that is a pain to control without a mouse.
I did get an Nvidia shield TV 2017 for my living room tho [emoji14]

Is it possible to change resolution in stock Oreo?

Hello,
I am waiting for the new Oreo update for my Tab S3 T820. Currently running a Magisk rooted 7.1 version and I have Second Screen installed in order to change the resolution of the screen.
This is needed for mircast to my Microsoft WiFi Direct dongle so I can cast to the TV in 16:9 vs 4:3. I have not found a stock ay to do this resolution change.
Unfortunately rooting the device has caused some apps like my United and Delta video apps to stop working since it detects root and I can't find a way to hide it properly. Magisk hide doesn't work. I would like to get all my apps working properly but this would require a non-rooted device that allowed screen resolution changes.
Has anyone who has seen Oreo on the Tab S3 noticed if you can change the resolution nativly on it?
Thanks.

Miui Native Cast Problem

Hi Guys,
I have problem with my pocophone native cast app, it does not detect my android tv which i just bought online few days ago. Im pretty sure the problem is not in the tv since i tested it to connect with my other phone and cast connected just fine. I also tested some other tv on the electronic store, my pocophone also did not detect several other brand on the store while the rest tv like samsung and lg connected just fine.
I googled this issue and found the alternative of using app called activity launcher then launch the android native casting app (wireless display) and it detect my tv but its quite laggy and i cannot turn off the screen while casting like i did in miui casting app.
I wonder if any of you face the same issue and anyone can figure it out? Im running the latest miui 11 global stable anyway.
Thanks before.
