Those is DEVELOPER MODE.

To enable developer mode go to Settings > About > Press Build 7 times. You will receive a message on-screen that you are now regarded as a developer...

Thanks

Hey guys,

I was just wandering if anyone managed to wake up the box with USB wifi keyboard or such. I have Rii i8+.

So far I've tried every key, and I even managed to freeze Xiaomi in the process a couple of times, up to a point that I have to unplug / plug in again.

Therefore, now I have to always push the round button on the stock remote and only then use keyboard, which is an inconvenience (so I just leave the box on at all times for now).

It draws so little power, no real reason not to leave it on always.

I don't mind the extra power cost.

What I don't trust is an android device that's on 24/7 Smile

Usually they tend to slow down with time / apps filling the RAM. Even my Galaxy S7 with 4G of RAM I reboot once a week to speed things up.
And I have no idea how good RAM management on Mi Box is...probably not perfect.
When I go to "running apps" seems everything I started since last boot is there, even if I've fully closed an app in the meantime. Hell, even after I restart seems some apps are constantly running for no reason (not system apps).

I guess it stays on for now, and we'll see...

I believe Xiaomi have unleashed the Sticky Stuff - aka Android Nougat for the Mi Box with working Refresh switching.

Hi all, new member in forum, old user of Kodi.
Im thinking to buy the Xiaomi box, cause i think is more reliable and stable than other cheap android boxes, but the lack of ethernet port and the Libreelec solution is a big disadvantage for me. I cant read all pages to find if the box has any bugs or what is the quality of the picture so pls if someone can inform me i will apreciate it a lot.
Thx in advance

Im thinking of using iptv with my MiBox
How do you fill in all the info (m3u etc.) Manual or is there a way to copy paste?

Is Kodi the way to go or Perfect Player?

Hopefully it fixes some Casting issues I have (Sorry, I know it's not Kodi related). Most of the time, I can't cast to the device unless it's immediately following a reboot. I had the same problem with the Shield TV, but that cleared after Nougat update... hoping for similar results.

I have the Mi Box and it has high quality picture and I have no problem with the lack of Ethernet port. I had always made an Ethernet port a high priority but for the money I went ahead and took the risk. It simply works and speedtest reflects good results and I have no buffering even with 4K local video.

Hope nobody falls for this. The update file has to be downloadable somewhere.

Guys,

Just got my mi box and Netflix is definitely not HD or does it even give a DD 5.1 option in the options? Any ideas why?. That's why I bought this box! Also. my uploaded 4K YouTube videos only give 1080P as the highest choice?

thx
