DVB-T for Android Stick - Is there any solution? - General Questions and Answers

I've been looking for over a month for a quad core Android Tv stick or Box with an integrated DVB-T receiver but there is none on the market!
There lot's single and dual cores out there but if you want something more high end then you're out of luck!
Is there a way for an
Android TV box/Stick (exaple: K-R42 Quad Core Google Android 4.2.2 RK3188)
to support
a simple DVB-T dongle/stick/thingy? (example: Geniatech PT115m)
or just any kind of tuner?
Since there are lot's of tv tuner sticks out there for android tablets its logical that they could work on an android tv box or stick.
I'd be more than grateful if someone has the resources to test this out and share the results.
What are the compatible hardware?
How responsive actually is (if so working) tv browsing?
How about remote control, PVR, Timeshift, etc support?
Which app does this work with?
Wanna make a Media Center for my kid with XBMC and NAS.

[Q] Firetv vs. S802 Box aka "other" Android Boxes

I'm currently debating between an Firetv and a S802 android box. I want to get the S802 or something similar because it seems to be more open but I have a concern that the video performance is not as good. Does the S802 or one of the other Android boxes capable of streaming Netflix, HBO Go, and Plex in HD or superHD (similar to what can be seen on a Chromecast)?

[Q] kodi on android stick

I was looking at dx for android tv on sticks (link) -
I wonder, does xbmc kodi run on all these android 4.2.2? I'm looking at the pieces with 2gb ram / 8gb space.
Also, can I assume the standard google tv app (on both android and ios) will be able to control the stick?
Thanks!

Looking into getting a Android TV Box

Hey guys
I have been looking into getting an android tv box and was wondering what do you suggest thats at least 2gb ram , gigabit Ethernet
1. Can the devices be rooted and can we install custom roms such as Cyanogenmod?
2. easily customization and tweakable?
I would either recommend getting the openelec box (the Wetec) It comes running openelec which is basically a Kodi OS. The other 2 good options are the Nvidia shield or build yourself a small htpc. Maybe use a nuc or raspberry pi type of board. http://webshop.openelec.tv/

Android TV Box or Rasberry Pi

I am looking for feedback on weather an android tv box or Rasberry Pi would better suit my needs. I will be using it mainly as an htpc. I'll be running transmission bittorent client constantly but generally more seeding then leeching. I will also be running kodi on the box as well as doing some retro gaming with emulators.
I already have a Transpeed X3 Air android tv box and it gets the job done OK for torrents and kodi but often seems to lag when gaming. The specs are an amlogic X3 with 4 gb ram and 128gb storage built in. Best I can tell the rasberry pi 4 performs generally on part with the X3 so I'm wondering if a pi 4 would trully be benifical? I believe I'd rather run Linux(Manjaro KDE on arm preferably) then android in this particular case and still meet all my needs and possibly increase performance through simplicity?
Thoughts?
