2 pointsThere is an ATV 9.0 Pie firmware for the MyGica ATV 495MAX. Geniatech, MyGica's mother company still sells this same identical box so download the firmware before their link is gone ! https://shop.geniatech.us/download/software-for-geniatech-android-box/

2 pointsI bought an ematic Netflix box. It's got android tv9. Google certified and also Netflix certified. Surprisingly has the same specs as my 495max, yet running Android 9 and certified for all the stuff a person needs. Stopped wasting my time with this brand though. They were once very good--and had regular updates and actually cared about aftersales. I have had 3 of there boxes in the past. The 495 max is sure to be my last. No support, no updates, no development.

For me I had to make 2 adjustments in Display settings for the HDMI to work properly. 1) I manually set the resolution 2) If I recall I had to set the setting "Color Depth Setting" to off. I guess these settings all depend on your TV and you may have to play with them. Mine is an old Samsung non-smart TV. -
2 pointsTry this fix (copied below) from MyGica for another issue (same product T230C):- I did it and now the tuner is working from hibernate. Only if you are running Windows 10 64-bit SOLVED I can't edit the main post so if you are reading this, until there's a full official solution with a proper installer, here is how to manually install the working driver. download this: http://mygicasupport.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=4105 Extract the files somewhere (you need to know where they are) Right click "Computer" > Manage > Device Manager > Find your device under "sound video and game controllers" > Right click > Update Driver > Manually search in your computer > Locate the folder > Install Driver > Restart your Computer & research your local DVB-T2 frequency. That's it! it worked for us, hope it works for you. @zxl if possible please either Edit this into the top of the thread or sticky this or something so people could see it when they first go into this thread.

2 pointsI agree with what you're saying for the most part except the last sentence. The two 1800e boxes I bought over the past couple months had 5.1 already installed on them. And I think the older models deserve the full right to completely function on 5.1. I personally prefer 1800e over 1900ac because it has the full size sd card slot, specs are minimally different, and it's cheaper. The biggest thing I can't get is how long these things take to fix. And whenever there's a new firmware release that's better than the last it's like a huge breakthrough for mygica. Maybe I don't know enough about the technology, but I think it should really just take weeks to correct issues like this at the most, not months and months. But I agree these boxes should be fully functional to standard upon their purchase. I don't mean to be overly negative about mygica, but I do feel you guys can do things a lot better. Lots of room for improvement. Constructive criticism.

2 pointsThe update is as follows. At first we thought it was wide spread on 1900AC and 1800E, but now after spending a lot of time on this, it is mainly only the 1800E. The issue we are having is the 1800E uses a different chipset then the 1900AC and also a different PCBA Layout, including the power layout. This is basically what is causing the issue, we had something similar on the 1900 PRO and 495 PRO, but were able to fix it. However, the 1800E chipset is very similar to the one in the 1900AC that is why 5.1 works, but just has a standby issue. We are trying to figure out how to fix the power issue without affecting the 1900AC at the same time. I realize this is obviously a problem, as electronics should turn on/off without issue, and I am not ignoring it at all and I have never been silent on the issue either. So that is the current update for now. P.S. - I know this is not normally what people do with electronics, but you can just leave the box on 24/7, and do the occasional reboot. Personally I haven't turned off my box in about 6 months, I just do reboots from time to time. This will temporarily solve the standby issue for now.

2 pointsConsidering that upgrading to Kodi Krypton 17.1 is soon to be a necessity (1), I'd say the Mygica team (AMLogic at large) has a responsibility to its customers to produce a stable 5.0 (or higher) image for it's products. 1) https://www.tvaddons.ag/upgrade-kodi-krypton/

2 pointsWe fixed this issue on 1900 PRO and 495 PRO After speaking to my team over the weekend, we cannot fix it on the 1800E/1900AC till after Chinese New Years, since their office closes after tomorrow for 2 weeks. I think once the fix is ready, we will send it OTA. If not, then I will get a how to video explaining how to do it.

2 pointsYes we plan to update the firmware for this, to fix the standby power issue.

2 pointsOnce rooted I install NSTools its a free app that lets you change the CPU Scaling Governor. I set mine to interactive its like performance and keeps all cores active but allows the cores to idle lower when not active to reduce heat. When the CPU power is needed they all ramp up. Since i rooted and set to interactive with a min of 600 mhz on interactive the unit is WAY faster. Hot plug stops cores as much as possible to save power and idles them as low as possible this is not a good setting for a always plugged in and always on android box as the unit uses a power brick and will draw the same power if its on or off. here is the link for what i use. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.cyann.nstools&hl=en here is the description of the governors I spoke of : (There are over 100 Governors ) 8: Interactive: Interactive scales the clockspeed over the course of a timer set by the kernel developer (or user). In other words, if an application demands a ramp to maximum clockspeed (by placing 100% load on the CPU), a user can execute another task before the governor starts reducing CPU frequency. Because of this timer, Interactive is also better prepared to utilize intermediate clockspeeds that fall between the minimum and maximum CPU frequencies. It is significantly more responsive than OnDemand, because it's faster at scaling to maximum frequency. Interactive also makes the assumption that a user turning the screen on will shortly be followed by the user interacting with some application on their device. Because of this, screen on triggers a ramp to maximum clockspeed, followed by the timer behavior described above. Interactive is the default governor of choice for today's smartphone and tablet manufacturers. 3: Performance: The performance governor locks the phone's CPU at maximum frequency. 21: Hotplug: The Hotplug governor performs very similarly to the OnDemand governor, with the added benefit of being more precise about how it steps down through the kernel's frequency table as the governor measures the user's CPU load. However, the Hotplug governor's defining feature is its ability to turn unused CPU cores off during periods of low CPU utilization. This is known as "hotplugging."

1 pointATV 1960 - Windvine L3 Hi All, I've had the most horrible experience with this product so far, so before I give up completely I'd like to get the advice of more experienced users. Netflix is running at SD quality on no matter what version i use. Despite having a 50/50mbps line. Have tried an ethernet connection as well. Was told that a device categorized by Windvine as L3 will never play 4k content. Firmware: I've been told that there isn't a firmware update, Im on 6.0.1 I'm just looking for the capability to view 4k content, as advertised by MYGICA. Is there something that i can do about this? Software i can download to fix any of the issues mentioned above? Thanks, Ryan

Right, downloaded the 7.1 files again, reformatted the SD Card to FAT32, copied files to root and followed the update procedure as outlined to the letter. Status bar with oscillating multi-coloured rings appeared, ran through installation phase to Erase and screen went black. Unplugged HDMI and re-inserted without disconnecting power at any point and VOILA! We have 7.1 installed Thank you ever so kindly. Always a pleasure to eat humble pie when my views are changed by solid support. -

1 pointHello, I am watching the channels in HD but they are not synchronized audio and video this already knows, after recording a tv program the playback with mx player hardware decoder option the video looks great but if the playback is mx player by Software has synchronization problem. Finally, the problem is the internal player of the padtv that can not play back audio and video. Solution: Playback needs to be external using the best mx player or vlc player. Upgrade with the option of playing live channels using external player such as mx player or vlc player.

1 pointNo, 1800e 5.1 is running on the same firmware file as 1900ac 5.1, so all updates and issues apply to both units. And he said the same firmware file can be used on 582 and 380, but they lag upon start up. I only own 1800e boxes though.
-
1 pointOkay. My experience has been apps not working on unrooted. Sixasis Controller app and any reboot app, require the device be rooted. But if people need both then doing so makes sense. I now understand the need for a factory reset. But to just upgrade 5.1 firmware to the latest version doesn't require a factory reset as you point out. Maybe creating two more additional upgrade firmware files is the best route to go for rooted and unrooted users already on 5.1 so they don't have to factory reset? You say it will probably be a patch file. Does this matter? It will still function the exact same as if you do the factory reset right? I'll wait for the stable release to come out. And if you can do the upgrade ota for people already on 5.1 then that's even better.
-
1 pointWhen I play games on my 1800e on 5.1 they keep stuttering and lagging. This was never present when I was operating on 4.4. I don't understand why you can't just duplicate the core settings you had on 4.4 over to 5.1? So many things about this seem off. If you guys are worried about the hardware malfunctioning, wouldn't it be more likely to malfunction if all the stress is being put on one core instead of all of them? And what's the point of buying a more expensive box if it operates the exact same as your cheaper models? There's android boxes that sell for $60 that can perform at the same performance as this box given how the specs are limited. I really hope you guys aren't limiting the performance of the box just to provoke people to buy a newer model. That would be bad news. Or it seems like the developers created a one size fits all 5.1 firmware file, so the cheaper models run the same as the more expensive models. This way it's less work. I don't know if this is true, but I can only speculate. It doesn't make any sense that this problem would start happening on 5.1, which wasn't existent on 4.4. I'm finding there's a lack of transparency with the mygica team too. If no one on this forum can give a strong answer to what's going on with this, why not get a developer on here to explain it fully so it's clear. It honestly makes absolutely no sense that the hardware could handle using all the cores on android 4.4 but can't on 5.1. Also this shouldn't take months to figure out.
-
1 pointThis will only work on an SD Card, not a USB stick I responded to your other post on a different thread about this as well. The How to Video explains how to do this from beginning to end.
-
1 pointYeah this is a great solution and didn't occur to me. I didn't realize how little power the box uses. At 10 watts, it uses about $10 for the year if left on the whole year, which is pretty minor. I think I'll probably keep it on 24/7 even after the standby issue is fixed. I use the rii i8+ remote that can't power the box on/off, so have to use the mygica kr-40 remote to power it on/off. But leaving the box on 24/7 eliminates the need to use the kr-40 remote at all, making the box more user friendly. So I'm really satisfied with this fix because it solves two problems for me, standby issue, and eliminates secondary remote.
-
1 pointFrankie, The units power usage does not change much if on or off. The device itself uses only several dollars of electricity each year.
-
1 pointI have heard from a few people that the 5.1 beta that is listed in the video posted here, does not seem to have the audio passthrough issues that the new 5.1.1 release has. I haven't tried it myself yet, but I am planning on trying it. It can't be worse than what I have now. I will post back once I have tested it with kodi 17, however it could be next weekend before I have time to do it.
-
1 pointThis will help you out after you have upgraded to Lollipop 5.1.1 not allowed outside link with 3rd party add-ons. Kodi 16.1 is installed with the update so u need to go to the Google play store and get Kodi 17.1.

1 pointGo to the first post in this thread and the answer is there.

1 pointThanks for your post! This is how I am feeling too! I purchased an 1800 My Gica box less than 2 years ago! I paid $200! Here we are now with a box that is obsolete? Not going to purchase another from MY Gica again unless they can put an complete update , not just patches that don't seem to work! To sell something then not support it fully or try to sell you another $200 box ! Sorry not happening and I will be sure to inform everyone I know that MyGica is a bad product!
-
1 pointFor a little more money I could have an Nvidia Shield. That will be my next Android media player, assuming I don't just build an HTPC instead. While I know the Raspberry Pi software, Xbian and OpenELEC are based on linux, I still am surprised at how much better they do with kodi than this MyGica 1800e, and for about half the price. This has been disappointing from the start and it seems to get worse. After the 5.1 upgrade it frequently freezes, requiring the power to be removed to restart it, to try again. I blame myself for not doing enough research before purchasing.

1 pointHi I have a mygica 586 with 4.4 firmware. I am having problems with KODI Jarvis. I want to upgrade KODI to version 17 KRYPTON. there are various people with great ideas on youtube to do this. first install a few apps OK no problem Upgrade firmware to 5.0 this I am having problems with. KODI 17 will not be compatible unless 5.0 is installed. Also there is a parsing error I am stuck. have worked a few nights on this getting no where. any help would be appreciated. or should I get another box? and which one?

1 pointMost people do not need root access. One previous benefit to root was having "quickboot" which allowed for a full reset of the system which cleared the cache. We now have a manual way of doing that by pressing the paint brush in the bottom left of the home screen. Only certain people need root, which is why we provide it. The fact is though, more apps work from the google play without issue when it is not rooted.

1 pointWhile we are happy to help, the shipping alone on this situation is going to cost a lot of money. As you have spent some time in our forums, you can see that there were some problems with the 1900's that we have since fixed the majority of issues with this update. Your problem however, seems like it may be hardware related, and is very rare. While I understand that this is hearsay at this point, buying electronics overseas or from foreign countries is always not recommended. I purchased an iPhone in the USA and brought it to China while living there for awhile and ran into the same problems that you are. As for what can be done now, if you think that the issue is most likely related to the power pin and you likely won't be sending it overseas for repair, you can try opening it up and soldering the points of the power pin to the board. The pin being loose is usually related to an impact onto the power pin which dislodges the soldering points from the board. If you are feeling adventurous about trying this, PM me and we can go through it together and I can try to help.

1 pointWill try and get #1,2 and 3 fixed. As for #4. I have given this to a lot of people without any complaints really. So is there something besides what you pointed out in 1-3 that is not satisfactory? 5. Can use the Factory Boot Card files from here to go back to Android. I have been uploading all my zip files of factory restore cards onto my onedrive. I keep them updated for the most part and I will keep putting them up until they are all there. http://1drv.ms/1JKmuNb If you have any problem downloading them, or you need different files, let me know. quad core video; the 585, 582, the reset button is on the bottom.
