I just bought this HDMI DLNA / Miracast receiver stick. The model seems to be a "Ugoos UG017" aka "Chromecast MD321" aka "MOCREO iPush M1" aka "HI762 HI763 (Chromecast)" aka "CX-V3" aka "PTV-2R" and possible more names. The hardware is:
- Rockchip RK2928-G @~1GHz
- 256MB DDR3
- 16 MB NAND
- RT3188 WLAN-Chip
- Push-switch to toggle DLNA / Miracast mode
There seems to be a UART available on some test points on the PCB. Any ideas on how to connect to that (settings)?
DLNA through BubbleUPnP is more or less working (skipping seems to lock the stick, playing playlists too), but Miracast is not, at least not on my Xperia L with CyanogenMod 11 / FXP 333.I tried the firmware for the "Pipo X5" and "MOCREO iPush M1" (both ~14MB) and both worked. Both state version "3.0.0-rc2". I would be thrilled if someone could link to a newer (and hopefully more bug-free) version than that...
EDIT: If found a link to a much better firmware (v5.0.0-rc2) for the CX-V3 here. DLNA is much better. Miracast still does not work, but I suppose that's just FXP 333...
if someone is interested this firmware allowed me to miracast with a samsung galaxy tab s

Hi Lucize,
I tried the firmware you posted, but the problem remains: "Impossible to initiate screen mirroring due to a HW problem"
What Android version do you have on your TAB S? Is it a 8.4 or 10.5 version?
Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much, lucize! It worked! I was able to miracast with my Galaxy S5 using the built in screen mirroring function. My android version is 4.4.4.
I got a Tronsmart CX-V3 dongle and I was wondering how to update it, since Tronsmart has -of course- no updates. So tried to find some more clones who could have an update and maybe even the manufacturer.
The latest I managed to find is version 9.0.0, dated 21-4-2015, by Ergotech. Their MD3054 and MD3056 seem to be the same according to the doc file in MD3054's update (8.0.0 rc1) (*1), so I downloaded MD3056's (*2) and flashed it. Sunchip-Tech strongly advices to update the software(*3), so i didn't have any hesitations.
A PDF included in 3056's update as well in the *3 link, indicates that there is OTA update option via the manufacturer (Sunchip-Tech). This means that maybe all Miracast sticks of this manufacturer can be updated directly by Sunchip-Tech. Keep in mind that the menu language will be switched to Chinese after the update, but it can be very easily switched back to English in the settings menu.
Ergotech's download page can be found in link *4.
While searching, I noticed than some RK2928 based Miracast dongles were called Lollipop (not because of Android). I searched a bit more and found Rockchip's user guide for RK2928 wireless HDMI dongles(*5), which calls RK2928 dongles as Lollipop. Seems that the reference Rockchip design is followed by the manufacturers. In that user guide I noticed the settings screen is same as my dongle's, but the main screen picture is different though same to some other RK2928/Lollipop dongles I had seen while searching. So probably there is an other manufacturer who kept the original main screen and maybe has even newer software. I did some more searching and the latest I could find is CloudNet's 3.21.00 (dated 28-5-2015) for CR-M200S. This one has OTA settings too, unveiling its manufacturer is Hotack. I believe it is a newer version than Ergotech's/Sunchip-Tech's version 9.0.0 because it has boot version 1.41 instead of 1.40.
CR-M200S download page is at link *6 and in lucize's post too.
Relatively new firmwares are also available by these companies:

I can approve that the CR-M200S firmware you linked works quite well. Have you tried the OTA update too?
Latest firmware (MD3056PW 3/sept/15) is from ergotech. Version 10. However there is no dlna subtitle support yet. I am waiting for this firmware to appear soon. None of the firmwares support subtitles over dlna. There is a metadata code that can be used on the firmware to support subs. My nas network disk (twonky server) supports metadata as most do. I am using version 10 without any problems. The only other problem I have is my tablets resolution which is not supported, 1280x 800, which gives me black borders on the sides on the casting TV (when on landscape). I have tried all firmwares with the same result.
There is a metadata code in ezcast forum that they have used to display subtitles over dlna which I am not allowed to post.
Also I have managed to use kodi/xbmc to display videos over dlna but no subs support again. There is a YouTube video and files you need in order to accomplish this.

I tried this vs the CR-M200S firmware, and the CR-M200S firmware is still the best imo. With my iphone that is the only one where mirroring works, and it seems to be less buggy.
Still awaiting a new better update than the CR-M200S . Youtube doesnt work with any of them!

I also have the same problem. WiDi of windows 8.1 (with supported hardware) does not work with the Chinese miracast dongle RK2928. I get the message:
Your HD digital display device did not supply the required identification data (EDID)
I found this site from sunchip, they say its workin on win 8.1 http://www.sunchip-tech.com/prod_view.aspx?TypeId=12&Id=71&FId=t3:12:3
on the screen captures you can see the firmware versión is 6.0.0 rc3, Im looking for it now in order to test.

Thanks. I will try this too.
I was able to test ergotech v10 firmware. After extensive tests It only worked with WIDI 3.5.41.0 driver. None of the latest intel WIDI drivers worked.
I will try to install ugoos firnmware to see if it works with latest intel WiDi drivers.
Thanks.
Update
Ugos A3S does not work on my Lenovo T420 laptop and Widi Intel 4.3.4.0 (((( I get the same message as before.
Update:
No firmware works with latest WiDi driver.
The only WiDi driver which works with any rk2928 firmware (I tried 3 firmwares) is 3.5.41.0.
Hardware:
Intel i5-2520M VPro
Intel Processor Graphics 3000 HD
Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 WiFi
Drivers
Graphic 9.17.10.4229
Wireless: 15.18.0.1
Software
WiDi application 3.5.41.0 installed 4.3.4.0 recommended (by intel widi update tool but is not working)..
The rk2928 firmware is miracast dlna airplay compatible, without any subtitle support over dlna.
For summary if you want widi support under windows 8 (8.1) then for me only intel widi 3.5.41.0 driver is working.
Also if you want dlna support under windows 8.1 it is possible. Samsung did produce a allshare excellent application which they have now discontinued, and is working like charm under windows 8.1.
Search google and download the Samsung allshare with version: 2.1.0.12031.10 (also called 2.1.0.12031_10)
Last point. For me ergotech V10 is the best firmware on Rk2928 dongle (as I have tested. My dongle used to display a connection name: lollipop)
ios9 airplay
Since ios9 update on iphone Airplay does not work on these dongles any more! and none of the firmware.
The latest firmware located on the ergo-tech website (ergotech.com.tw/tw/Download_detail.aspx?key= firmware v.11.0.0 and 3.0.0 here) claims that it supports ios9, but i have tried ios9.0.2 and 9.1 on these with iphone and it does not work.
Does anyone know a way of getting ios9 airplay to work?
There is a RK2928 dongle which claims to have ios9 support, the Visonicom RealCast VMD-RK156 realcastptv.com/tag/WiFi-display-dongle-Rockchip-RK2928) but i cannot find a firmware download for it.

Firmware 3.0 disables the wifi. So it does not work.
Firmware 11 has problem with the quality. Frames are skipping and video picture gets distorted.
I have tested firmware 11 extensively it is has flaws in video quality. Only ergotech firmware 10 works flawlessly.
I am back on firmware 10.
Tested hardware: miracast rk2928, Lenovo T420 with windows 8.1, intel HD 3000 graphics card, and widi 3.5.41.0 and intel centrino ultimate N-6300 and KODI (xbmc)..

If you are using Windows 8.1 or 10, try flashing your device with windows 7.

Hey all,
I just got a MXQ Pro+ 4K (Android 7.1.2) hx_s905x TV box with 3GB RAM / 32GB ROM. Tested SU root with a root testing app, says the device is rooted ok. I checked for software updates and it says that Android is up to date:
Android Version: 7.1.2
Security patch level: May 5 2017.
Kernel version: 3.14.29 (March 2018)
Build: hx_s905x-userdebug 7.1.2 NHG47L 20180316 test keys Rev B5
I can not get my Logitech Rumblepad 2 wireless gamepad to work with it. Trying to avoid flashing a new ROM or anything that could brick it so I'm only looking for drivers for it and instructions on how to install them.
Good news:
1. I see the device listed as plugged in through the "USB Device Info" app, it recognizes it as Logitech Rumblepad 2 and recognizes another generic gamepad as well.
2. Gamepad is not broken - my old Android Box with Android v.4.4.4 detects it just fine, I can play games and navigate through Android UI on it using the gamepad.
Bad news:
1. Neither the Logitech Rumblepad nor the generic gamepad work in games or in Android UI on the MXQ Pro+
2. Tried a bunch of gamepad testing apps from Play Store but no values come up, it is not detected at all.
What I need help with:
Drivers, modules... anything that will allow gamepad support on Android 7.1.2 and instructions how to install them. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
It is really weird that an older Android comes with support out of the box yet the latest one doesn't.
I know this is old, but after doing searching, it seems like no one replies to these threads with gamepad issues. Is this just something that's troublesome for devs to implement? Are the driver modules just not available? I am in the exact same boat as you, I'm hoping in the future I can turn my little android boxes into steam link + htpc devices.
Hello
Sorry I couldn't find a Q&A section, but I need to know about my box. I bought a MXQ PRO 4K as the title says from a local store (they didnt have much more information), it came with Nougat 7.1.,
I opened the box and said R329Q_V3.1 20180425. As i search in forums and aliexpress, I'm supposing is an Amlogic since they have a 2018 model with Nougat (couldn't find a rockchip with that spec), i can attach photos from an specific part if needed.
My questions are:
Where can i check the model to be sure?
If I'm correct, is it S905X or S905W and what ROMs can i install?
I mainly want to change ROM so i can use a better wifi remote app (i got used to the rockchip remote), can i install a ROM with the ehomediacenter as stock so i can control it with the RK remote even when is not a rockchip? Or what other options as wifi remote do i have? Since i tried cetusplay and teamviewer but they didn´t work as they were too buggy, neither is root to use remodroid.
Thanks in advance for the answers.
I have an H96 Pro Plus with android 7.1 that is no longer compatible with some apps. Build NHG47L.20170922 test-keys.

It seems this device will ever get android 8 or 9.
Slower chipsets are getting Android 8 or 9,i don't understand why the S912 chipset hasn't got it also [emoji28]
Which apps are no longer working with the 7.1?

That's strange, because Netflix works in all my Android 7 boxes. My H96 Pro Plus included.
But I'm using a custom firmware on it.
Superceleron's SCV7 for the H96 Pro Plus.
Is the Netflix app not working or you just can't download it from Playstore?
If it is the second one, know that one cannot install Netflix from Google Playstore on rooted devices, and almost all android tv boxes are rooted. But... you CAN manually download the Netflix app from sites like apkmirror.com or apkpure.com.
If the newer versions don't work in HD, try Version 4.16.
Its seems I have 2 identical boxes but with different builds. Both H96 Pro Plus 3gb 32gb. S912
Build NHG47L.20170922 test-keys works with Netflix
Build NMF26Q.20170524 test-keys says Netflix need to be updated but then in Google Play Store it says its not compatible with this device.
Like i said, on rooted devices you cannot download netflix from google playstore, even if it is already installed.
You will have to download it from sites like apkmirror or apkpure.
There is newer firmware for the H96 Pro Plus , latest i am aware of is 20180409.
But it is always rooted firmware.
Thanks.
Where can I download the latest 20180409 firmware you mentioned?
Ideally without having to sign up for a MEGA account.

You don't need to have an account to be able to download. I got mine from there can't remember from which forum I got the link

I know nothing about Android 8, or 9 on H96 Pro Plus, but you should be able to find firmware in this Mega folder:
Code:
https://mega.nz/#F!8qhRRaYJ!2ZA3VLjvLT6wg0IwsTF27g
You will find roms, launchers and other tools there. Quite handy for our little tvbox - and you don't need a Mega account to download.
As for Netflix, I have no clue about the other rom versions as I too use NHG47L.20170922 test-keys build, but the way I coped with inability to install Netflix on various devices was to use some custom app store like ApkPure for example. Few months ago I used modified version of netflix apk, just to have better video quality (natively it was 480p, but looked quite horrible) - but it stopped working some time ago, so I was forced to switch to original one - from ApkPure store.
And if you're not satisfied with video quality (I haven't used netflix for some time, so I have no idea how's the resolution issue on L3 devices) - use Kodi netflix addon. It is really good in terms of quality - 560p I believe, but looks better.

I think the pre-installed version is really old.
It you prefer using the tv version of YouTube, i advise you to install smartyoutube (it's not on playstore) or you can install the regular phone android.

Hi I have an H96 proplus which isnt working for disney plus and i think it is because we dont have the firmware. I have got to the link posted above mega.nz... but dont actually know what to do next - can anyone post an idiots guide please?
Keep Android 7.1.1 on your H96 Pro+
My H96 Pro+ is about 5 years old and there is only one app that dont work on my box its the CW app.
Netflix works perfect up to version 7.42 so don't update your Netflix over version 7.42.
You don't have to root the H96 Pro+ it works better without root. You can update all your other apps with ApkPure
No matter how long time my tvbox is used without turning it of it never gets more than 45° i have mounted a fan with usb on it and i have modifiet it so it have 4xUSB ports i can watch 10 seasons i a row and it don't get hotter than 45°
I have try many boxes but none of them can compete with the H96 Pro+ it can use sd-card up to 512gb and i have never any problems with my box.
The build is NMF26Q. 20170422 test-keys. I have try to install Android 7.1.2 but it fu*kt up my box and this firmware has many errors so keep the 7.1.1 and remember to update all your apps except Netflix
Here is some pictures of my box.

Hi Mike, which firmware is no root?
I would like to install it, my box bricked yesterday after installing supersu.
Thanks in advance.
Hi. My H96 Pro Plus frequently goes blank and shows "No Signal". Sometimes it shows "Unsupported Device". These days it has started going off and on multiple times on its own, like it is possessed !
Is there a known solution for it?
Good news: Android 9 available for H96 PRO+ (Amlogic S912)
Hi, I hadn't turned on my H96 PRO + for a long time. It still had Android 6 and several apps not working. After some tests with 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 mod. I managed to install Pie. https://daivietpda.com/2020/07/rom-atv9-android-9-0-cho-amlogic-s912/
I had some difficulties because with burning sd card it stalled and with direct flashing through the burning tool the .img file failed in parsing.
I managed to install thanks thanks to "Amlogic_USB_Burning_Tool_v3.1.0" https://androiddatahost.com/fq58z with USB A-A cable and power supply connected.
ROM seems exceptional to me! Great! Also perfectly compatible with control devices and in particular with the G30 air mouse remote control, which can provide voice input for Google Assistant.
Right now I'm looking at beta2 version (just seen there is an OTA update). With that version the issues I found:
- very few compatible web browsers (Chrome, firefox, etc. not working): at the moment I have installed TVWeb
- Netflix update not working. I think it can be overcome by installing a suitable version. What version do you suggest?
- Unfortunately, some restarts in my opinion due to excessive heating: unfortunately I see that it reaches 72 ° C and around that temperature it restarts. It will therefore be necessary to find a solution to improve cooling or slow down the device. Tips?
Edit:
-flashed OTA v3: it's OK!
- disinstalled Netflix and installed Netflix_v7.59.1 build 27 34902 via apk: Working!
- Youtube (and channels) working
- Youtube Vanced working
Hi MediaTerraneo,
I am trying your solution, but it ends at 2%. I do not know which version of H96 I got but is the image universal or is it working only with specific boards?
Hi, at the source page https://daivietpda.com/2020/07/rom-atv9-android-9-0-cho-amlogic-s912/ you can find some fw for specific devices. Consider H96 can be with various hw; I have tested with Amlogic S912, ram 3gb.
Edit: Try to install from the Store an app that can discover your hw configuration.
Thank you very much for your quick reply. I got the exact same hardware (Amlogic S912, ram 3gb and 1000MBPS LAN). Can you write the name of the img you used at first place before upgrading to beta 3 over OTA?
Hey All
Stumbled across this site
https://www.evolutiontv-vs.com/uncategorized/
https://www.evolutiontv-vs.com/uncategorized/блог-системных-файлов.html
In their firmware section i noticed they had a AOSP android 10 listed for s912 devices and figured i would give it a shot.
Its basically a Linage OS android 10.
SO far things seem to be working fine. I have it running on my Alfawise H96 Pro +.
Direct link to firmware here https://mega.nz/file/fIcBXCBY#RTtLXh1zBKsS6YQbmQI_OkAdnaEghhxOrK5MvDeqG2M
Anyone else tried this ?
Yeah I have tried it last year, I still prefer ATV, waiting since then for someone to port AOSP to ATV
tried this with my H96 Pro+ Firmware CZ-S32-v2.2 (DDR3)...
too barebones for my taste... also i dunno which gapps to flash for this so i cant install anything without sideloading (i tried mindthegapps 10 which is what is usually prescribed for LoS)
hopefully it could be used as a base for new development on our devices going forward...
