    After almost 2 years of resetting, configuring and troubleshooting my Mi Box S, I finally rage quit it. Hangs, lags, not turn on after sleep, CEC not working, videos not playing without stuttering.. Box itself will be hammered with passion tomorrow. Not a single day of this crap not malfunctioning.

    Updating Android TV to unsupported OS version

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 07:30 AM PDT

    It's my first time using an Android TV device. I have a Mi TV Stick, which I know it's not one of the best ones out there but it fulfills my demands. I updated it to a newer version but it is still on Android 9. I want to know if there is any way to install Android 10, 11 or the new Google TV software. Thanks.

    Vizio TV and Onn Box

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 06:07 AM PDT

    After a week trying just about everything I'm reaching out for help. Have three Onn (Walmart) boxes and the boxes all work great. However, with one newer Vizio tv I have it'll say "NO HDMI DETECTED" after a few minutes and especially when changing channels. This happens on any streaming app. Swapped out the box with other Onn boxes..Same issue. For the heck of it, I connected a Roku to the Vizio tv, no problems. It seems like this box does not like this particular TV. Thinking of getting an HDMI to RCA converter to bypass the whole HDMI connection. Anyone know of this has anything to do with the SDR/HDR setting? When I flip channels that SDR thing will pop up. Can't turn it off on the Onn box.

    Chromecast with Google TV - ambient mode timeout

    Posted: 26 Jul 2021 09:59 AM PDT

    I just found out how to set custom ambient mode timeout ("When to start" time of ambient mode).

    1. Just connect with WIFI debugging (enable Developer Mode and enable USB Debugging)
    2. and type `adb shell settings put system screen_off_timeout 60000` (60000ms = 1 minute, u can choose your own time)
    3. It's all :)

    start.ca STB - use after leaving START

    Posted: 26 Jul 2021 01:58 PM PDT

    greetings!

    i am trying to use an IPBS9510 set top box as a generic android TV device, mostly for the Kanopy library streaming app. the device was purchased when i was an iptv subscriber with start.ca (https://www.androidtv-guide.com/pay-tv-provider/start-ca-start-tv).

    i am no longer a START customer, and do not have their remote.

    i've done a factory reset, but there is still START firmware on the device; after it boots, there is a remote pairing screen (which shows a picture of the START tv remote). i can't figure out a way to get past this pairing screen without a START remote available.

    i do know that the device can be controlled with a USB keyboard and/or mouse... i've done that before. it would be totally fine for me if that was my input method -- i just have to get past the remote pairing procedure somehow!

    i've tried using a few android universal remote apps on my Samsung phone. if the IPBS9510 is on an ethernet cable, then those apps do see and identify it on the network. however, they ask for a 4-digit code, saying it should be visible on the tv. unfortunately, the pairing screen (fed by HDMI from the STB) does not show the code, so i'm unable to pair.

    is there some way to get past the pairing screen using my USB keyboard?

    or is there some non-START firmware version which will solve this problem? i've done a lot of searching about that -- the procedure seems clear, but i have been unable to find a firmware image for this device.

    ...or some other solution anybody here knows about??

    thanks in advance for any help you're able to offer... cheers!
