Have an ONN (First Gen) Box that still gets a lot of use. I periodically check for updates. Yesterday it showed there was an update available, turned out to be an update to Android TV 12 as well as a remote update. The box I have has additional storage via OTG Cable and USB stick. Everything worked fine after update.
Settings>Device Preferences>About>System Update>Check For Update

I tried the onn google tv box but didnā€™t like it because there is no way to adjust the screen size like on the firestick.

I am assuming you have the 2nd Generation box if you just purchased it.
The 2nd Gen box comes with Android TV 12 installed.
This video may help you set up. Its pretty straight forward.

The ONN has screen adjustment
Settings>Device Preferences>Display>Screen Position
Then zoom in or out as necessary.

I tried every setting available but that was not one of them. When I googled it, others had the same issue with no luck.

I ended up not downloading the update as I hear people saying that theyā€™re having ads display on the screen . So far no ads so Iā€™ll skip the update

Sorry for the technical glitch. Thanks for the heads up on the update. I have a 1st Gen in the bedroom, Annoying thing was that the audio could only be adjusted in increments of 3. Since the update, I now have full control of the volume level.

Also, after the update the remote didnā€™t work. Unplugging & rebooting fixed that. Thanks.

I also have 1st Generation Onn + otg hub with usb drive and usb mouse. After the update, the right mouse button no longer works and my Flixvision app was disabled. Had to disable play protect again and re-install the app.

I ended up not updating my Gen 1 onn box. Figured itā€™s working fine the way it is . Iā€™ve seen people complain about live ads appearing on the home screen now . Bummer

I also have a Gen 1 and it has worked flawlessly. Today I saw that there was an update. Big time mistake!!! I tried to download it and the screen went blank and would not come back on. Tried the ā€œresetā€ procedure but nothing. Wish that I had read these posts before updatingā€¦ Any help would be appreciatedā€¦

I have ONN 4K Android Box installed on my tv. Iā€™m using Wolf Launcher using Troyā€™s video instructions. I use Fast Task Killer but my memory is a dismal 850MB even after running it.
I tried to search in google play store for Clean Master but canā€™t find it.
Would someone be able to recommend a
top rated Cache/Memory cleaner for me so I donā€™t have to go to each apk and clear the cache separately :confused:
Thanks in advance :smiling_face:!
I do have Downloader, Sideload Launcher, and Aptoide TV

You can clear all cache on the ONN by going into Settings/Device Preferences/ Storage/ Internal Storage/ Cache.
Click on Cache and select OK to clear all cached data.

Thanks @hittingthree!
Going to try that right now :blush:
Just didnā€™t know if there was an app to simplify cleaning all cache or unnecessary stuff :thinking:
Take care :slightly_smiling_face:
