Xiaomi mi box 3 root - Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers

Hi,
I want to root my xiaomi mi box 3
Do you have a tutorial to do this?
I don't find it....

No you can't. Xiaomi does not provide the bootloader private key unlock. As referenced here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/an.../to-root-xiaomi-mi-box-s-info-please-t3876822

Yes
I've done it before , but it was more of a tethered root for say , I used a raspberry pi to get around the selinux , make sure adb was on , downgraded to the userdebug rooted , got the pi to disable selinux when it detected the box over adb , then after you have that accomplished update the box and there you go , I'd have to do it again and wipey box if you wanted me to try it again , and get another pi for it to bypass that little annoyance of a bootloop (caused by selinux) your not changing the ROM just modding your current system and getting around your selinux so no your bootloader doesn't need to be unlocked , like someone else said but it's tethered for say

You are playing with semantics. What you described is a system that allows temporary admin access via userdebug firmware. This will not allow you to install any apk that requires administrative access and goes away on reboot.
Unfortunately, there has been no userdebug version for either Android 8 or Android 8.1, so none of the international official AndroidTV boxes can support this method.
Only hope is to find a factory fresh MiBox 3 (MDZ16AB) that is still running MM version, 4.54 then flash a Nougat userdebug firmware, build 1028.

Had apks supersu installed
Had super su installed the only thing wrong with the set up was after I updated the firmware , it was still rooted but if I didnt tether something to it to disable selinux on boot itd hit a boot loop , but if you downgraded with the update.zip file , did the adb root , uploaded su , installed supersu , set up the outside device with adb to disable selinux, upgraded, youd have an updated mibox 3 , I'd have to go through google but I used a modified version of someone's script for the root and some udev rules on a rpi0 , and posted somewhere the instructions I'd just have to find it again if I do I'll share the link or re duplicate and share

Just read a tool exploiting a new 0-day exploit may be able to root and disable the selinux (making it untethered) called quickr00t if anybody wants to give it a shot thinking I will my next day off it's a poc code right now you'll have to compile it yourself , thinking I may try my next day off , so Friday I may give it a shot

Since this comes up first in google when searching for mi bix 3 root. I would like to inform all that the mi box 3 source code has been released by xiaomi as claimed by this link https://piunikaweb.com/2019/02/28/x...bal-kernel-source-codes-3-years-after-launch/

I have MI Box 3, with pre installed Netflix TV application i can play upto 1080p resolution. Problem is when i install mobile apk to MI Box 3 i can only play upto 540p (960×540) resolution. (Checked with the test pattern episode in Netflix). MI Box is DRM L1 certified. I wanted to play mobile Netflix Application since i want to play US contents using smartdns and use my netflix content based internet package ( With latest version of netflix tv app doesn't support smartdns properly, when i enable smartdns with Netflix TV Application it start to bypass my content based internet plan). All things work fine with Netflix mobile application except the resolution. How can i fix that? Any ideas?

Mobile apk is not designed to validate presence of DRM as it is not allowed to exceed 480/540 resolution.
You could search for earlier versions of Netflix Ninja (AndroidTV version) which may be more tolerant of VPN trickery...
You may be able to extract it from some of the older Nougat or MM builds here or in /r/Androidtv on Reddit.
Good luck

I had to downgrade the MI Box 3 to old Oreo update and it works. But don't know how long i can use Netflix Ninja 5.4.1 version in there. Even when we have paid for Netflix UHD Subscription and Pay for Data bills why Netflix bother to give us 1080p support? I do not see reason behind it.

There're few bugs that stop Android-x86 6.0 from daily use. For example,Google play services always crash on Intel Gen8+ GPUs,which is not fixed yet.
But the devs at Jide are actively contributing to Android-x86 6.0 and you'll be able to see the results in near future. For instance,the issue of Time being reset in Windows is fixed
in the latest commit, Check the marshmallow-x86 branch at https://github.com/android-x86-mirror
Hmm...seems like a solid release. I will wait for the official announcement and update though. If it fixes my nvidia/wifi/sound issues I might actually start using this

I think there is no remix os 3.0 for PC(x86) :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:
I downloaded and installed it. My impression :
1 Locked DOWN, no more root command line
2 No Play Store option
3 Does include keymapping
4 Stock file manager can no longer read the partition on which Remix OS is installed
5 Maybe a little more quick because of changes to disk partition access
This may be because it is currently for Chinese users, hopefully there will be more flexibility with the release
EDIT 2016/07/01: After solving problems of getting into root command line, was able to deactivate jide app policy and then went on to install nova launcher, etc. Then using help from @HypoTurtle I was able to do systemless root. Everything now operating well. I will continue testing this 2.0.401 over the next few days for stability.
Summary:
1 No longer locked down
2 Play Store is activated
3 keymapping confirmed
4 Solid Explorer can read all disk partitions by using Stickmount
5 So far seems quicker than 2.0.205

Thanks. I installed Remix on a Windows computer so I cannot use Ubuntu method. Also I used the Remix installation tool so everything is stock install. Guess I will have to wait for a systemless root. @HypoTurtle are you onto this yet? (lol)

If someone can post the ramdisk I'll compare to the previous version but regardless the current systemless root su/ramdisk.img should work fine; unless it's drastically different.

Cant play movies from google play

I just installed Remix OS 3 (on a USB drive for PC) and am pretty impressed with it. The google play store installed easily and most apps are working fine (preliminary testing). However, in Google Play Movies, I cannot watch any of the movies in my library (that I bought before) because it says playback is not allowed on this device. Does anyone know how to fix this?
On reading more, it seems like Google Play Movies automatically blocks any adroid device that is rooted. Since Remix OS ships rooted, I am thinking that this may be the issue. Any ideas on how to "hide root", etc?
Checking in on this further, I ran SafetyNet Helper and sure enough it fails with: CTS profile match: false
Is this fixable???
It's not because it's rooted. The current Remixos builds are missing the Widevine Drm libraries for playing the copyright / drm content.
There are Widevine libraries for the nexus player tv device that are probably compatible, as they are for intel cpu's on Google's nexus driver / blob file download page. I haven't tested them yet, but you would have to make the system partition writable in Remixos to manually install them. The default Remixos image is read only for the system partition, but there are posts on how to change this.
Alternatively, if they do work, jide might be able to incorporate them, but they might be licensed? So that may be why they haven't done it already.
Once the drm libraries are in place and working google play movies will work.

is it such hard to root GameLoop 7.1.2

GameLoop is an Android Emulator which has two different variants
old GameLoop based on Android 4.4 (i am NOT talking about this variant)
new GameLoop based on Android 7.1.2 (i am talking about this variant)
In the setting of GameLoop there is an option about "abd debugging" and "root authority"I activated both of them.
If we don't activate them, the emulator doesn't shown in "adb devices"If we activate them, the umlator shown in "adb devices"
And we can use other adb commands.
But, it is not enough. In the emulator we cant use root authority.For example, we cant use titanium backup application.Because, root management apps don't work properly (magisk, supersu vs...)Becuse, supersu binaries is absent
I can not use root access in the emulator.
i have watched nearly all the videos on Youtube
i have read nearly all the articles on the web
Still i can not do this!
it's been a matter of pride for me
I am not a developer,
If a developer prepare an article how to do this , or record a video, i can do this
Please help me?

In fact, you can use rooted adb on gameloop 7.1 (AOW Engine) And you can install supersu, replacing the binary with adb -e push
The problem is that by doing that, all calls to "su" will trigger a driver_exception BSOD because there is a driver blocking it (AOW_DRV.SYS) Unfortunately there is no way around this as the entire AOW Engine runs on that driver. I guess Gameloop devs did this to prevent cheaters from using apps like Gameguardian that require root. Unfortunately so far there is no way or any method to do it, I'm just waiting for someone to do enough RE to the driver to bypass it.
Gameloop has another engine based on Virtualbox (Standard Engine) The latter can be easily rooted via adb. Even with a little work you can unpack android_system_disk.vdi and patch 2.img (boot image) to install magisk and then repack .vdi again.
The thing is that you will not be able to play games like PUBG or CODM on this engine.
The grace of this emulator is being able to use it to run games, I know there is no other that compares to it, but unfortunately the only alternative to be able to play and have root access is to use bluestacks 5 or you can also downgrade the version of gameloop to the one based on android 4.4, but this version is currently obsolete for current games and it's even worse than bluestacks in performance, it also doesn't support more than 60 fps

Question PSA: Drivedroid works with Zenfone 9 :)

To my surprise, this wonderful utility that lets you carry bootable ISO files with you actually works with the ZF9. I had almost given up on it, since the phones I owned from Samsung, Xiaomi and sony the past 2-3 years, wouldn't work with it.
I can't seem to make it to work. Whatever mode I tried it only shows the original USB mode (it shows internal storage instead of the ISO). Can you share your working environment?
Mine:
Magisk Delta 25.2 (MagiskHide mode)

Exactly the same. Which version of drive droid are you using? Mine is 0.10.50 which is a beta. If you can't enroll for the beta on the play store anymore (I think development is abandoned, there hasn't been an update for years) I can upload the apk here

I enrolled in the beta program and it didn't update. In-app version says 0.10.50-105000-609169. Can you share the APK so I can get it to test?
BTW, the USB system is set to the only one available called Standard Android. I am on the vanilla kernel because I heard that TWRP didn't go well with custom kernel. Wondering if these matter.

I have the exact same version inside the app. There is only one USB system here also and I also use the vanilla kernel with magisk because TWRP is more important for me. If you create a new img inside drive droid and choose format with fat, you don't see it in windows when u mount it?
Here is some video proof:
and I attached the apk from titanium backup. We can't have different version of the app, I also installed it from the store.

Root an old tablet Philco

Hi.
Sorry if I'm posting on wrong area/section.
I have an old tablet Philco that I'd like to see Youtube videos.
PH9B, Android version 4.2.2.
I've found no Youtube app on PlayStore and the reason is because such device won't suitable for the last Youtube version. But I've found an old version APK of Youtube, suitable for Android 4.2, from apkmirror.com. After install it, Youtube warns that there is a newer version available (I know that). And gives me just one button: "Update". Clicking it, I go to PlayStore and it says that my device is not suitable for that new version.
Blind alley. Deadlock. Stalemate.
I can watch videos using the browser. But it's very poor of resources and stucks a lot. It hasn't even an option to speed up the video, at least.
I'm searching for another player as an APK to watch Youtube videos on the fly. Not offline video.
Unfortunately, almost all of them is complaining about the Android version.
So, I will try to root it, so I think I can update Android to 5+.
Anyone may point me the right direction?

Thank you for the link.
I was informed that I'd need to root the device to get able to update Android version.
I'm newbie doing such things and I'd appreciate some advice.
But I'm afraid to go ahead because it seems to be a little complicated.
Reading this, I guess I would need Magisk, Android SDK Platform Tools ZIP file for Windows, a deamon (that I don't know exactly what is, and probably an OpenGapps (already downloaded, for Arm64, also not sure of it).
Using Kingo Root, I've already root the tablet successfully.
But I'm not sure what is the next step.
Any idea?
I'm ready to learn and dive into this world of updating OS.

Updating to Android 5 or more, I'd get access to new apps, including some Youtube players that allow speed up videos run.
you have root from Kingo Root, now what? you cannot update android if no update exist. root won't help you with this.
Magisk not supported btw.
That is, I'm looking for guidance and suggestions.
Perhaps, you'd solved the puzzle: no way ahead.

I'm trying now to update from that link you posted.
Manual says to press VOL+ and connect to computer, with tablet turned off.
Until device is being recognized. But only battery charge shows up. Connection between tablet and computer didn't occur.
What to do?
I don't know, but the other link is more recent at least. Do you understand the language of the PDF?

Yes, the language is portuguese, the same I use.
And it explains how to do the update.
But I turn tablet off, press VOL+ and connect USB cable to computer. Connection should happens. But I got no connection...
Tried too many times...
If I try to turn on after that, it enters on Recovery mode.
disable windows driver signature enforcement (restart F7) then open windows device manager and connect phone. on phone screen recovery mode (your picture above) select 'reboot to bootloader'
you should see device in windows device manager. click on -> Properties -> Update Driver -> Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from the list of device drivers on my computer -> Show all devices -> Have Disk -> android_winusb.inf -> Android Bootloader Interface (use the driver that comes with firmware)
then try again the software.
btw my idea would be to install this app cn.wq.disableservice and try to disable Google Play in a way so that it won't bother updating youtube. not sure how exactly, we have to figure out...
at least, YouTube should work oneshot each time you delete app data from settings.

Would you, please, detail more your idea?
I've already installed Disable Service.
Whats services I should disable?
Google Play Services and Google Store have hundred of services allowed.
I'd like to try this suggestion.
well, I would maybe start with YouTube itself, trial and error if you can find the responsible service.
for more advanced tweaking, read some guides
