My box is no longer under warranty and I'm searching for ways to upgrade the OS. I've had one firmware update since my purchase (X39 FW004 20201123)
For the moment no other Fw update from minix ...i not use Fw 04 because bluetooth sound not work ?...the box is abandoned by minix ? Like u9h , u22xj...and all other Android boxes....but they continue to sale them ..the users are abandonned

7/21/22 There is software for rk3399 from other manufacturers, but I don't know about this specific motherboard. The bootloader would have to be unlocked and the device would need to be rooted, I would imagine the same way it was done on phones...

This box was expensive at the time of purchase which was over 200 dollars after tax & warranty. If I cannot find a solution soon, I might get a new android box... Support is much needed but so are active users in the forums.

7/22/22 After talking with you I decided contacting the company. Don't hold me to it but I may or may not have a solution from Minix. I cannot reveal details but hopefully it'll bring hope for the "One" Neo X39 (Matrix Reference) lol

All around this box is still relevant even in today's market. Even though it's meant more for digital signage, at the time I purchased it, no other rk3399 box came close. Looking at boxes in the market now, many still cannot achieve benchmark scores over 100,000 like this box could. Even though it lacks in HDR, I stayed with this as my daily driver due to its performance & capabilities. Looks, hands down Minix always wins with their sleek design profile!

Who knows? Maybe our passion for an upgrade is in the works... Let's keep our fingers crossed

Usually, I buy new Minix boxes after they get old, but you mentioned the NEO U22-XJ which came out right after, but it lacked in 64bit support, so I stayed with the X39. Things change so fast in the tech industry, so I know what you mean when users feel abandoned. Many companies use frequent software upgrades to quell the user flames but if those upgrades aren't new operating system versions, what's the point...?

Minix does have the coolest designs when it comes to boxes & remotes and from what I remember, they were the first to create the most polished looking android boxes in the market. They were extremely popular in the US market at one time, many people on YT and other social platforms ranted & raved over these boxes, which is probably why you & I have one. The company doesn't make junk that's for sure! If anything, many companies copy & try to rival their designs, but I still like Minix, the most!

The problem with minix is that they bring out great boxes but they dont work on firmware...take a look in u22xj bugtracker ...you Can see that there are a lot of simple bugs how are not resolved ...last(small) update is from 03/02 2021 !!! Now we have july 2022 !! So Moore then one year later the firmware is not bug free ..a shame. And i am sure that they not work on x39 or u22xj... firmware. ,They not interest about what peopel want in the firmware or resolved the resting bugs.... or make touchscreen work with hid moultitouch in kernel (u22xj)....why they bring out u22xj max??? Non sense
Why they dont have bring out the évolution from x39 ?? A stronger Android box with 2 video outputs like x39 how gives 1080p +4k outputs+ touchscreen compatibility !!! That is what i am waiting for !!
X39 was the first and only box on the market with 2 HD video outputs and touchscreen compatibility
All this is finish since u22xj ..??? features like this have make the différence in the past between minix and other manufacturer...

say 6-7 years or so ago there was no doubt that Minix were definetly amongst the very best Andoid boxes on the market both in terms of quality and customer support, and especially listening to their customers in respect of delivering firmware upgrades both for fixes and enhancements.

Last 2-3 years or so that has all changed significantly for the worst, quality still seems good but a complete downfall in their customer support, especially wrt to firmware. I suspect that they no longer have any inhouse skilled developers. It certainly seems to be so since Minix Ken left, thats when the downfall started.

x39 was a bit of a disaster from the get go.
T5 and U22XJ looked good and promising but important firmware bugs never fixed and worse still more or less silence from official Minix in the forum
U22XJ max - yes, why bother if the firmware is buggy??

Very sad story and no doubt Minix is no longer anybodies supplier of choice, and they will have lost many past and potential future customers

I started with the 8h plus minix boxes on old forum... Yes with the x39 ,the box presented as normal box have change to industrial box ...but this box have make a Big différence ,it work great ,connected to 4k TV and 1080p touchscreen...the problem ist that its RK and its not strong enough....but one or the first boxes with 4g ram ,the only one with 2 HD video outputs and work with touchscreen ??? , minix have changed the audio outputs in last firmware bluetooth audio not work....so i rest on fw03 ?

The u22xj : not bug free,no updates since moore then one year, a lot of peopel have ask for hid moultitouch in kernel.... and the audio problem...never resolved ....?
So today i have :
8h plus : to old not strong enough no touchscreen compatibility.
9h : to old ,no more updates, touchscreen work.
X39 : great box but not strong enough,no more updates, touchscreen work
U22XJ : strong box !! No more updates, touchscreen not work .
So at this Time i am confused about minix boxes ,with all boxes i dont have one how is in my eyes perfect : strong ,bug free Fw, touchscreen work ...so with all this i have dicided to never buy minix Windows boxes...and now today if there is not a miracle -a New box how all work or updates for x39/u22xj its clearly finish for me....so i wait to december for follow all the other members how have leave and Say never again ....
One thing is clear ...if it continue like this they Can close the forum ....

If Minix is going to keep and take more US market share, they'll have to make some small adjustments, providing updates & firmware. Compiling & testing all that software is no easy task. I hope Minix makes the changes needed that their users seek, I know my prayers were answered. Check out my new posts

If I could be taught how to handle the software side of things, I'd work my @ss off to fix bugs and create new firmware, building is the easy part. Many people are looking elsewhere for android boxes. They need a strategic PR campaign; Videos are another much needed thing for their users. You already know a lot. All I can say is nothing is perfect, no matter what area of business. I get what you're saying, but most things you buy today (especially in tech) are released with bugs, the key is keeping it down to a minimal.
