Is there any way to root this without a pc?
I'm abroad for a few months and have this cyclone 4+ amlogic s905 box and all I have are android tablets and phones. I have micro sd cards etc plus usb mouse and keyboard.
Was hoping to be able to flash root from the box itself via a file on the sd card.

Hi sorry for the delay in replying have just seen your message I rooted it using the same root method for the earlier box using windows 10 adb method over LAN found the method on freaktab I did scour the forums but there's not much help with these boxes and there is so many different ones also haven't found a way to flash twrp I had a lot of trouble with this box wouldn't log in to google play when I received it so had to root it to mod some files it's a pretty good box once you kick it in to shape I use it as a secondary box just got the Rominetak Q-Box Android 5.1 Lollipop TV Box Quad Core 2GB/16GB has that 2gb ram makes it a bit faster hope you find a way to root it makes it much better box once you do.

I believe this is will get anyone the best results for HD quality and live tv streaming.
Instruction to load XBMC with external MX player and updated libRTMP:
1. Install the xbmcapp-armeabi-MX-v7a-neon-27.11.2012 XBMC
2. Locate the following folder: Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc/userdata and copy the Playercorefactory.xml file to this folder ( i did this with my computer i put the SD card in my computer and put the playercorfactory.xml file in the directory stated very easy to do and it works great.)
3. Copy "librtmp.so" file to this folder: /data/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/lib (data is on the root of the jynxbox not the sd card).
All the files you need
anyone have any links to any notes on firmware development? original ROM source code?

That sounds very interesting! Please let me know how that turns out. Does it boot to text console or xwindows?
Is it based on a distro(Debian,Ubuntu,etc) or is it a custom buildroot image?
This sounds pretty cool I have a Roku box that I stream video off the web. I works great but if an android style player were to come out and be stable I might be pursuaded to switch. Also just letting you know that XBMC does have some pretty buggy plugins for it e.g. Hulu doesn't work for all videos in it. I know this from using it on my computer before I got my Roku. If a new interest was sparked these issues could disappear with official plugins from the video providers themselves.

This Jynxbox Android HD firmware has bugs in it that keep me from replacing my old Xbox with it full time. Its more a toy at the moment for me. Source codes would make it easier to track down and fix problems in it. (Anyone have em?)
That Linux image posted above is looking interesting. The boot splash says "XIOS DS media center" and it boots straight into XBMC for linux. (12.0-rc3 git:20130103-2318127) the jynxbox wireless internet works with this image, and the wireless remote works once you enable mouse support. USB keyboards work as well.
It connects to my samba server and plays all the videos I could try. (The jynxbox xbmc could not access my samba server and updated xbmc apks couldn't play my video files) so far its looking great.
Thanks phati for the heads up on that image. Where did you find it? Is there a public forum related to its development?
hey guys,
the description of the product (http://jynxbox.me/Product.aspx) says it has adobe flash 10.x on board.
will this allow me to stream all kind of content which is displayed in a flash player within the android browser?
www.my-entertainment.biz (hd free streams) e.g.? would somebody be so kind to test that. would be awesome!
thanks so far!

Edit:// Is this thing shipped from China? How long did it take til you get yours guys?
I received mine sent to me from a great guy named Cody who operates http://www.boxtoptheater.com. It was shipped to me from Canada and arrived in roughly a week after stock was replenished. So far I absolutely love the device and hope that custom roms might find their way to it, besides simple updates to XBMC that it operates for the media center aspects. Since the box comes pre-rooted, it should not be too problematic I imagine. Sounds to me that several set top units use the same board chip also. Everything seems to run well except games that only run in portrait mode for obvious reasons.
Once I receive my portable hard drive for it, and have the dvr functionality running, I'll post some videos on line for others.

When you run upgrade->local update, it will not list below files on Jynxbox Android HD box automatically, please press menu button on remote controls 8 times for it to show up.
I haven't tested it on the mini yet. But I assume it will works because both devices are the same build.

Guys, where can I get fully working XBMC version for this box?

Control android tv box with android phone (no root)

Hi guys I bought a Himedia h8 tv box and would like to control it with my phone, specifically for typing etc as using the remote is quite cumbersome. Is there an app to install? I have tried tablet remote but i am unable to install it from the play store on the h8 as it is not "compatible". It needs to work over wifi as there is no bluetooth on this tv box.
If its easier, can I use the IR blaster??
Also prefer to not root. My note 2 is rooted however don't wanna root my tab s or dads s4. The tv box is not rooted.
Thanks

Hisense H7 TV on VIDAA

Anyone got the Hisense H7 55" TV running VIDAA. It's a jelly bean based android OS TV. http://www.hisense-usa.com/tvs/H7/55/51
I already installed Kodi (XBMC) on it and got it going with my NAS setup...
just wondering if there are any thing else I can do to this TV.
Thanks
I got Kodi/Xbmc installed, I'm using BeyondXbmc the forked version for Android sticks installed and I'm getting stuttering issues on playback for 1channel. Is there a fix for this? I'm thinking about installing SPMC from the Play Store and trying it out instead. Also does the Hisense H7 play off an external HDD through usb? I'm curious because I have one lying around and would like to know if I can play through the usb port plug and play.

Turning Linux based smart TV into Android TV?

I would like to start off by saying I've looked around for a few hours on the internet trying to find something to help me get an answer to this. I've decided to ask the community to shine some light on this for me. Any answers would be grateful and very appreciated.
I have a Hisense 4K 50 Inch TV I bought it from Walmart. The model number is 50H7GB. I've had the tv over a year and it runs a Linux based os called "Opera TV" The current os lacks the most decent apps and the app store has nothing thrilling at all. I was wondering if it is possible to put Android TV os on this Hisense tv somehow? If it can be done, what steps must I take to do so?

Keuro L7- Advice

Got my hands on a PICO Projector that is powered by Android 5.1.1 from Keuro in China. Works with MiraCast and Happy Cast. Comes loaded with a ROM that has some video options, but I am going to experiment on trying to root this thing and put TWRP on it so I can load a custom Rom for possibly Android TV. Here is the manual with tech specs - http://www.keruotv.com/r/cms/kr/default/keruo l7 user guide.pdf
I have side loaded the following apps, Play Store, Netflix, Direct TV Now, Watch ESPN, CBS All Access, Prime Video, For Sports. The all run, but are kind of wonky as they want to work with touch not a IR Remote.
It has an ARM quad core A53 64 bit processor with 1 GB of DDR and 8Gb storage - was wanting to know if that if solid enough to run Lollipop or Marshmallow if I root?
Thanks for any help or suggestions
