This box only has the larger usb a drives. I saw a video where a guy did it and saw which drive he used but itās not working for me. Its got to be the cable. I appreciate the input, I need to do more research
Make sure youāre using a cable that permits data transfer. Some are strictly charging cables or power supply only.
Yes thankyou. The cable is the same one that I used to successfully flash the x88 prox5m and the tanix tx5.
Then in the settings you may find an option for the ports one of which is charging. So perhaps it is set to that instead of data transfer. I have my ports set for power only on my BuzzTV P6L. I would have to dig around to remember where that is. Also if using developer options check for the USB settings in there and see if something needs to be enabled like USB debugging, which is used to copy data between your computer and you device, and install apps.
Im wondering could this be it..developer options under select usb configuration, itās set on charging. My other options are mtp (media transfer protocol) ptp (picture transfer protocol) rndis (usb ethernet) or midi
I would assume it needs to be MTP. In developer options you should also have USB Debugging enabled.
I have not flashed my SK1 but if I remember the Ugoos needs the power cord plugged in before the flash.
Does this flashing on an x88 pro still make it independent of Google if they implement the side load wait time? This doesnāt make it an android tv box, correct?
I just want to make sure itās still open source if I do flash it to slimbox
Sorry for the delay, Slimbox does not have this model in the selection. Thanks
I have a HK1 RBOX model K8S, on the bottom it says the CPU is RK3528. Googling shows itās a Rockchip. Is SlimBox compatible with it?
I also have an X96Q, which is on the list of supported boxes, but itās only 2 gig RAM 16 gig ROM vs the HK1 with 4 and 64.
Are any of these Android boxes that out of the box are limited to outputting a max of 1080p able to have higher output resolutions unlocked?
Hello, I wanted to see if you had any problems with your 4gb ram 64gb storage x88pro x5m box when you flashed it? I have the 905a variant and when I flash it with slimbox the ram drops from 4bg to 2gb and from 64gb storage to 32gb storage.
When I flash āfactory firmwareā from slimboxās website I get the same results.
No, I donāt remember that being the case.
I have the 905a variant also and that did not happen to me.
Sorry for posting here but Iāve searched the forum and not really finding what Iām looking for. Maybe Iām not searching correctly - IDK. Iāve loaded SlimboxTV onto my X88 Pro X5M android box. Iāve followed the direction as laid out by TroyPoint. Iāve updated Magisk to version 30.7 but when I check under superusers I do not see (sharedUID) Android System listed. Actually no apps are listed there. Iām at a loss as to where to proceed from here. If anyone could point my in the right direction it would be very much appreciated. Thank you
If I remember, for superuser to actually show up, you need to have an app that needs it. I had similar issues, but after a few apps, I think Projectivy was one of the ones that used superuser. I donāt have mine hooked up at the moment or I would check how mine is, I remember having issues.
Thank you for your response
i read s905A is the same as s905x5m

Does slimboxtv support Dolby vision and hrd10 plus? I thought it was my tv but now that i have one that supports those formats when I look under device preferences display settings it still says those two are not supported.
