I control several devices such as lights, curtains etc
I have Xplor. So i can set up an ftp host on it. Iāll search around/tinker see if I can pull it off. Wanna add my 4 grandbabys as homescreen on my wolf launcher
Here ya go. Set up WiFi File sharing. This is a full manual for using X-plore.
I got one on Monday when a friend brought it for me while on holiday here is South Africa. Looks good so far. Only 1 thing for me that wasnāt explained about the USB3 port. It does not read USB hard drives(FAT 32),is OK with USB sticks. I have now put the said hard drive in a self-powered HDD docking thingy and now all is good! I am sure that the USB3 port does not push enough power for HDD.
I am putting this on here in case it helps some one.

Just curious if there was a reason all your firesticks died on the same day?
Electrical Storm? Kids smashed them all with a hammer? 
Iād be concerned with that before i set up anything else. Unless of course its not really an issue for you.

Use Downloader 11946 to directly download APKTIMEā¦ From there use only official version 32 bit arm 3.09 stable version.under entertainment section. Suggest you also get an ad blocker.
You donāt need to go anywhere else. Troy has APKTime covered.

I just tested on my downloader. Entered just the code and it did itās 4 second load wait and immediately took me to the apk time download. I am on a VPN server in Illinois.
I have struggled to get this going for a few weeks and was going to return it. I decided to try unistalling Downloader and reinstalling it again and somehow the screens i needed came up this tome that werenāt before and i was finally able to get it setup. I have tried several and times am not sure why it wasnāt working before but glad it is finally working now.

I have have my Onn Pro for about a month now. All in all I am rating it a hair above the 6th Gen Firestick Max, due to the superior quality picture. Everything else is pretty much the same, albeit in different places. It takes some time to get used to the differences. I have decided that when I get a new streaming device it will be high end, probably Shield, Mekool or something else that is top end at that time. Wonāt be Onn, Fire or Google TV.
Iām kinda meh on the Onn pro. Iāve had my 2nd gen Cube for awhile and it still rocks my boat with added memory. Maybe itās just that I am accustomed to the Fire stuff. And of all the remotes, I prefer the remote that came with the Cube which is important to me since it is the actual physical connection to the unit.
When things started heating up about Amazon changing the Fire system I decided to get the Shield Pro. NOTE: buy it during the Black Friday sales and save some serious coin. Heck maybe the Prime Day in July might be a good opportunity to catch a sale. I really do like the Shield Pro but just not a fan of the remote (sorry, the remote deal again with me). I have found that the Alexa Pro remote plays well with the Shield so that is what I typically use.
Iāve found that the connection speed on the ONN to be about 1/2 the speed of the speed of the Shield. Troy explained this in one of his recent tutorials. My takeaway was it had to do with the processor speed. Overall that may not be a problem with buffering if you are watching something, but if you want to back up or fast forward there will most likely be buffering. The Shield is really a great little machine, especially the up-scaling, the speed (itās way faster than the Cube), and I really prefer the home screen on the it more than the Cube and the Onn. I havenāt delved into setting up a custom launcher on any of my devices yet, but might take the leap with the Onn box fairly soon.
So to summarize(?) my diatribe, if you are thinking of stepping up your streaming device in the future I would recommend the Shield Pro. When on sale it is around the same price range as the Mecool units. Plus there seems to be a lot more knowledge on the ins and out of the Shield.
Thanks for the reply. It seems Iāll be anxious for this yearsā Prime Day.

i have searched and read all i couldā¦ but canāt find anything about this. soā¦ if someone finds a more appropriate place for thisā¦ i will rent a truck and help you move it to the proper placeā¦ and your couch 
some people say they got a backlit remote with the onn pro boxes, and some didnāt. I have bought many of these boxes, and some the backlight didnt work, some do. Then the other day i went to friendās house (whoās backlit button didnāt work when i gave it to him) and when i went to update box and new apps and whateverā¦ his backilt remote buttons worked. Soā¦ leads me to believe it is a setting, or an update, or combination of button pushing. anyone else?
Iās not a setting. ONN has 2 different remotes. Some are Backlit some are not. I donāt have the Backlit but could care less.
