    Great product, but there’s an issue with this mibox for a long time. After a while it’s put in sleep from the remote, it won’t wake up from the remote. I can only unplug and replug the power cord, none of the methods I saw online worked (smashing the back or/and home button(s))

      Here is the workaround which works flawlessly:

      Install the app called "Gallery and Screensaver"
      Open the app and choose "Arieal videos" as your Photo sources.
      Then go to Settings of MiBox and select Backdrop
      Change the backdrop to "Gallery and Screensaver"
      Also increase the Inactivity time to the max.

      This should resolve it (i.e. the box will never go to sleep)

      • JC1986 on 30/08/2018 - 10:29

        Thanks. Mine doesn't go to sleep unless I put it in sleep from the remote, judging from the white led on the box.
        Are you saying this method will work with the remote 'sleep/off' button? If yes, I'll give it a go tonight.

        • Associatedbatrarobin @ GearBest on 30/08/2018 - 10:42

          No sorry, this method is only if you would like your MiBox to stay ON 24x7. Mine used to go into sleep after a short duration of Inactivity and I couldn't cast through Chromecast without having to wake it up first. So now I use this workaround so my MiBox is always ON.

      Yup, 2nd that. really annoying. sometimes you can wake up from the remote, but more often it doesn't work. otherwise great box.

    • bargaino on 30/08/2018 - 10:44

      I don't have that problem, or only rarely.
      But there are others.
      e.g. Netflix picture freezes sometimes while audio continues.

      Vodafone TV is better, though double the price now.

      • jackwilk on 30/08/2018 - 11:16

        That problem happens to me sometimes after it wakes up. Unplugging and plugging it back seems to fix it.

      • asa79 on 04/09/2018 - 00:08

        Mi box is android tv 8 while vodafone is only 7

    • jasswolf on 30/08/2018 - 10:55

      Try a factory reset (you'll need to reinstall your apps and reconfigure a few of them).

      • JC1986 on 30/08/2018 - 11:16

        um. really? Everything is working fine though, except the sleep on my remote.
        What factory reset are you talking about - from recovery mode? What about upgrading it to Oreo after the reset?

        • jasswolf on 30/08/2018 - 13:54
          +1

          You're not on Oreo already? To clarify, the recovery image is always the currently installed version, not the one the device shipped with.

          Additionally, is your box unresponsive to another remote or the Android TV app on your phone?

          If you haven't already updated to Oreo, do that and consider following up with a factory reset to purge depreciated settings data.

          If you have already updated and then run a factory reset, consider getting your hands on beta build 2179 of Oreo.

        • JC1986 on 30/08/2018 - 15:36

          @jasswolf: just update it to 2179 and a reset, waiting on few hours to see the result.

  • 51ngh on 30/08/2018 - 09:08

    Would this do screen casting (screen mirroring) for an iPhone ?

    • JC1986 on 30/08/2018 - 10:30

      you mean airplay? No, never worked unless I chose chromecast for youtubing…

  • habib23q on 30/08/2018 - 09:31

    Great device I've been using mine all the time since getting it back in November last year.

  • h4zey on 30/08/2018 - 09:49

    Heard they have so many problems now since the last update and also you were forced to update the firmware :(
    was thinking to get this but i have to hold off getting one for now, but we'll see..
    P.S. I could be wrong but do your own research.

    • sillyhead on 30/08/2018 - 09:55

      Yeah I have one my kodi use is ruined from the android 8 update. Iview is now choppy and movies freeze. Really ruined the device.

      • JC1986 on 30/08/2018 - 12:14

        I reinstalled my kodi, it's working really fine. my only issue is power on the box from the remote.

  • jztilly on 30/08/2018 - 10:13

    i've got an nvidia shield for our main tv but can't justify another for the bedroom tv. this seems to be a slower cheaper shield - does plex run ok on it?

  • bargainisg8 on 30/08/2018 - 10:31

    Newbie question, I have been using Google Chromecast and cast the laptop (off Chromecast extension) and phone apps to play stuff on TV. How is it compared to Google Chromecast?

    • h4zey on 30/08/2018 - 11:38

      you can sideload a lot more app in this one (referring to android tv box not mibox) and it's more convenient to use. Having said that, if all you need is chromecast then you don't need this :)

    Option to get AU plug would be the deal sealer. CBF messing around with adaptors.

  • esq on 30/08/2018 - 16:35

    Not sure if this is the place to ask and I might have to start a forum thread, but my inlaws' tvpad 4 needs urgent replacing or they might start coming by my place just to watch their c drama.

    What's the OzBargain Asian TV android box of choice?

    • star-ggg on 30/08/2018 - 16:46

      this + kodi

  • star-ggg on 03/09/2018 - 17:34

    does this come with AU adapter?
