List of S905/S905X Boxes that work with kszaq's build

    Hi,

    I bought a Mecool BB2 Pro Aml S912 device. Unfortunately, for the issue described in this post, there is no solution now.
    So I thought to buy a S905 device and load, via SD card, LE as said here.

    Could I have the same problems or LE can solve this?

    Thanks to everyone could answer my question.

    It's working with "g" and also worked with "f". Dual boot with LE on sdcard (I''ll keep the android for drm content streaming). I used Reboot to LibreELEC app from Google Play to setup kszaq's build on sdcard (too scared or too lazy to install on nand :angel: ).

    Thanks guys.

    For me it's important not to see the green screen after install LE.

    I thought to buy the H96 Plus. It has 2.4GHz/5GHz Dual-band WiFi: 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet and 2G RAM. Could it go well?

    Or the NEXBOX A95X... but it hasn't WiFi ac, and I don't know if it has 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet.

    Both have the same price.

    I have the android box which is in my signature and so far I didn't have any issues with it. I had a NPET S905X with similar hardware but it wasn't turning off.

    X96 1Gb/8Gb, Cheap well built s905x based box. I think this is similar to the a95 and mini m8 s but also has an external infrared receiver which could be useful for some people.

    So far installed libreelec on the SD card only to keep dual boot to Android, works great and reliable with just 1Gb.

    This box does not have bluetooth, only 2.4g Wifi and 100Mb Ethernet, both worked fine. CEC also worked fine on a Samsung 2016 smart TV.

    Hope that helps someone.

    Magnum - You probably should remove the direct links to sellers in your post (breaching forum rules) ;)

    done... :D

    Could the H96 Plus S905 Quad Core 2GB DDRR3 work with LE?
    I know that no one can ensure Le works 100% with this box...

    Anyway I think it's a good starting point. What do you think about it?

    Thanks

    Any of these available under 30/40 $?

    How much reading have you done ? Link #11
    This is not a shopping website.

    Ok I will search that myself.

    How is the performance/ stability of the 905 vs 905X chip models ? I am guessing its good now given that its on the "List"??

    The difference between Amlogic S905X and S905 Android TV BOX | NEXBOX TV Box

    Based on this, is a 905X a better buy in todays date? Compared to a 905 (slightly older) and 912 (less support here)?

    No links to sellers. Forum rules.

    Sure. Can you atleast share thoughts on performance/ stability/ reliability etc on
    S905X vs S905 and
    1G/8G vs 2G/8G vs 2G/16G
    going forward?

    Just so we can make a call on a box (from the working/ approved list) ourselves.
