slimBOXtv: Android 9 Pie Custom ROM for U22-XJ

Hi thank you for that :).

I tested both ROMS but i will focus on Slimbox _v10.2-Android_TV_pie-U22-XJ (i like ATV a lot) :)

TV used Samsung 43RU7105.

System:

I flashed with Amlogic_USB_Burning_Tool_v2.2.0 without problems (flashed ok first time i tried).
Usb burning tool :
I used erase flash and erase bootloader.
-IR, A2 lite backlit are working ok
-reboot, sleep and power off works well
-One press and long press with power button are working well.
-the device wakes well from sleep/shutdown
-System bar - ok
-System sound ok

APPS:

-kodi 19 installed ok (latest stable build)
U22-XJ is working well with my video libray (from SD to 4K HDR).
My Mariadb server is now with kodi 19 database tables and i am using on all my clients (windows and android) despite still having bugs (kodi 19), but i like to test things :)
-x-plore file manager ok
-google store ok
-smart tube next pre installed app ok

LAN:
Ethernet: is working well
WIFI connection is also working well.
Copy/delete files with x-plore file manager is working well.

Bugs that i found:
-Recovery option is not working, the device crashed, i had to unplug the power cable.
-Options: Display - screen resolution and screen position - not working
-slimbox settings: playback settings not working
-IR remote control settings key don´t work
-A2 lite backlit :
settings key, all apps key does not work

Comments:
I like the click sound when we move the cursor along the apps.
The ability to turn off ethernet (without the need of removing the rj45 cable :) (this is nice, i like it)
I would like to see here an update ROM file to use in the GUI (instead of using usb burning tool to update the device)
I am happy with the result, nice job :), looking forward to the next update :)

Hi Marty, yes I read that part but I read it like this:
It is forbidden to upload the firmware elsewhere unless you have his permission or (and?) you provide a link to the original post.

I don't see how it would make sense that one would need permission to share a link to a public post. That's like the essence of the internet :)

My original post was merged with this thread but I'd like to point out that SlimBOX v11.5 is the first OFFICIAL SlimBOX rom, released by SlimHouse.

The previous SlimBOX versions in this thread are UNOFFICIAL roms by wdmomo. I haven't tried this official SlimBOX rom yet but I'm expecting it to be better than the official Minix rom.

No stress, just so you were aware.

Interesting and confusing all at the same time. Could you possibly elaborate on how we have an official and an unofficial version of SlimBox, has wdmomo ripped off the work of SlimHouse or are these completely different ROMs with the same name? I can re-instate your original post if the two are completely different.

Thanks for asking :)

As far as I can tell the version posted by szkifen is a SlimBOX rom (probably a X88 King or Ugoos AM6 rom, both boxes are S922X based) that was modified by wdmomo to work on the Minix Neo U22-XJ. I believe this is the original post by wdmomoxx on znds.com.

Since szkifen didn't specify in the title that the rom was basically a unofficial port, I would suggest we keep this thread for SlimBOX roms in general :)

Cheers, ries

Hi Ralf, I wasn't aware that the DRM can be changed or spoofed by firmware but I ran the DRM Info app and made a screenshot:

About touchscreen support, I'm not sure how to test this without a touchscreen but there is this option in Settings:
