Walmart ONN Android TV - Android TV General

Been wanting to tinker with this, wondering if anyone has tried yet, if so could you point me in the right direction as Google, and duck duck haven't yielded any results.

Yes it can be unlocked with the standard bootloader unlocking instructions for pixels. We are working on LineageOS for it, currently the repos have already been forked to the primary organization. We are just doing the finishing touches to it before it will go official.

To expand on this there are a few devices that are very similar so they share the common device tree. Google ADT-3 (Deadpool) and Dynalink TV box (Wade) are using the same board. Onn box is a variant of the board used on those with a few features and hardware removed to cut cost presumably. Everything is sharing a common kernel because amlogic has a unified kernel that supports all their soc's.

Unified kernel means this can be easily ported to s912?

Thanks for the info. Will that allow root, and backup using twrp? Software is part of equation, I'm working on a hardware piece to allow more storage, but I have to wait on the more savvy software guys like you to cover the ends I can't. You guys rock!!

Hey folks - I've installed Lineage OS "dopinder" for the Walmart Onn Android TV device. Can't run Netflix on it. Ultimately I want YouTube without ads.
Looks like I will need to run Magisk on this thing.
Can anybody help me run Magisk on the standard OS? It would be nice to have Netflix and also to be able to install some kind of ad-free YouTube. Has anybody done this yet? Anybody working on it?
I'm a noob to all this but if anybody would like to help me, I would love to try and get Magisk working.

For starters, does anybody know where I can get the stock/factory image? I erased mine when I installed Lineage OS on the Onn Android TV UHD device.
Do I need the stock recovery, too?

No need for rooting or flashing a new ROM. You can easily have ad-free youtube with Smart Tube Next. All you *should* need is the SmartTubeNext apk from github, a USB OTG cable with power, a USB stick, and a file explorer from the play store. Navigate to the USB stick and install the apk. Allow sideloading when it asks you. Log in and enjoy. Netflix should be available on the stock ROM.
This is all assuming the USB port on the ONN is OTG capable, which most streaming sticks have.

Hello, do your devices has parental control settings? My 4k box no

Does this work for the onn tv stick?

From my understanding the stick version (for $25) is not OTG capable. The box though (for $30) is OTG capable as I have checked it out myself. You have to use a FAT32 filesystem though otherwise the OS won't read the drive.

it’s now $20 at Walmart. Best value for sure

I'm looking for the universal remote codes for the uhd 4k box.........anyone have those? Thanks.

Does Netflix and Amazon prime still remain fully functional with lineage os or no?

Is there a specific section/thread for developement for this box on here? I just picked one up seems pretty sweet for 20 bucks!

For prime video you can sideload the apk. If you want to see development there’s a lineageOS build in the Google tv section

Development is pretty good on this thread: [UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 18.1 for Amlogic G12*/SM1 Family Devices. It can get a little confusing due to the mixture of several devices, so you should read pretty much the whole thing.
I'm sticking with rooted stock on the 1st of 2 that I got until Lineage gets a bit more refined. Many thanks/kudos to those in that thread for all they have done and are still working on.
Second one is still pure stock OOB (never setup or connected to the Internet) that I am just experimenting with prior to actually flashing/modifying anything. It is still bootloader locked, yet I can still boot the Lineage recovery (odd). Actually flashing it w/o unlocking is doubtful, but still remains to be seen until I decide to bust it's cherry
Time permitting, I'll post some Onn Walmart (aka dopinder) specific things here if anyone gets lost over there. Just ask.
Happy trails...

Yoga Smart Tab

Hello,
So I got a Lenovo Smart Tab (yt-x703f) and really want to flash TWRP to it, so I can flash LineageOS rom, but it seems like there's no support for it, or even a subthread on XDA.
(I tried various twrp images)
Anyone got some experience with that tablet and have something working?
Cheers
For some reason this device gets the silent treatment on all fora. I can't figure out why, this could be a great multimedia device with some adjustments. batt life is great as is the sound. Screen is ok ish and the speed needs to be tweaked, but no one is willing to tweak
You can root the device and even flash a GSI on it. Tested myself and everything is working
Yoga Smart Tab - Iron Grey​Part Number: ZA3V0005US
Not sure if we are talking about the same device but lenovo does not support their mid tier devices with OS updates and would like to install a bloatless OS also pie is really dated and wondering if i will run in to issues with app compatibility. There is also that issue where it won't run HD in netflix because netflix is a static app and can not be removed and reinstalled. Hence bloatware and would love a clean google experience.

Flashing a GSI might help if the device supports Project Treble. Basically any device launched with Android 8 and above should support Project Treble.
Hi, I have a Lenovo Yoga smart tab (YT-X705L) and I want to install a new rom on it. I’m not an IT wizard so I need help with that. Would you find anyone who can give step-by-step instructions from start to finish with download links.
And if you can find experiences on how anything works (which is GSI). Thanks in advance.

HD 8 2018 version questions

Hey everyone and just started working with these tablets. I got 4 of them for fairly cheap and setting up for my kids to use for school. I'm trying to unlock them but have some questions to make sure that I do this correctly as not all of the tablets have the same version.
Essentially all I'm really wanting is to run Family Link on the devices to manage screen and app time as FreeTime is a joke. I used the toolbox and installed Google Play services but when trying to setup the child account on the device it fails on Device Management, so I just planned on going to Lineage to fix the issue.
Now my 4 Devices:
1 x 6.3.1.5 - First device I opened and let it update not thinking
2 x 6.3.1.2 - Kept these devices from updating after reading the forums
1x 6.3.0.0 - Kept this from updating as well and seems been sitting at best buy for awhile
6.3.0.0 - From what I read this one should just be rootable, The issue is that I'm only finding steps on the Hardware root/unlock and nothing about just rooting the older build. How do I just root this device to start the steps of this post to unlock the bootloader from @k4y0z after the root part.
6.3.1.2 - These I will need to do hardware mod on correct since it's not BELOW 6.3.1.2?
6.3.1.5 - Towards the end of the thread for unlocking/rooting I noticed people from .4 up seemed to be having issues but couldn't tell if they were doing hardware mod. It's still fine to do the bricking to unlock these devices as long as I do the hardware mod to CLK correct?
Just want to make sure I have all my information correct before I get flash happy and thanks to anyone who can help!

Yes, you are correct. The shorting method should work fine, even on 6.3.1.5, the issues people are having is brand new HD8's with new lot codes. Start here Post #2
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd...nlock-fire-hd-8-2018-karnak-amonet-3-t3963496
Can confirm,shorting 6.3.1.5 worked for me with no problems.
I have my Fire HD 8 (2018). I'm staying on Fire OS 6.3.0.1 because I have blocked an OTA updates.

Did you ever figure out how to root 6.3.0.0?
UPDATE: After a bit of digging, I found the right path here: [UNLOCK][ROOT][TWRP][UNBRICK] Fire HD 8 2018 (karnak) amonet-3 | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)
1. Extract the attached zip-file "amonet-karnak-v3.0.1.zip" and open a terminal in that directory.
NOTE: If you are already rooted, continue with the next step, otherwise get mtk-su by diplomatic from here and place (the unpacked binary) into amonet/bin folder
2. Enable ADB in Developer Settings

I should have read the outputs more carefully, because it does refer you here when it fails: Rapid Temporary Root for HD 8 & HD 10 | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)
I thought there may have been another way to get root, but it seems that is the way to do it.
Thanks to Michajin.

Bypass Android 10 Go edition feature limitations?

I recently bought 2 of the new 2nd gen 7" Onn tablets with Android 10 Go Edition for my young kids. I have been able to root them with help from the wonderful people here.
Has anyone run into problems with the limitations of Android Go? Mainly it has disabled the "Draw over other Apps" permission/feature. This is mainly necessary for the childproof app locking protections I want to install.
As a work around I've have to get an old apk from a compatible app that doesn't request that permission, and this has worked so far. But I have other apps I'd like to use that don't have old apk's that work.
I assume once we finally get a full copy of Android running on one of these we won't get that feature. Just curious if anyone has another work around?
If you have them rooted, have you looked for a magisk module that might allow it? I am playing with flashing an Android 10 GSI right now. If I can get it running right I will post in the other thread I started

Help with small predicament please *reward*

Hello all,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 T- 597V (verizon oem locked) and I need to install an app on it, DJI FLY for my drone.
- Now the app will not install. I tried to install the apk file directly from the tablet, I tried to install it via adb with no luck.
- The tablet it OEM locked, so I can not root it.. I updated it to android 10 from 9 hoping it would let me install it.. nope,
- The DJI Fly App requires 64 bit, the tablet is 64 bit, however I am not sure if the android v10 thats on there is 64 bit
I've been searching for days.. my tech savviness gets crappier the older I get, I really suck at the internet now LOL
The reason I want to use this tablet specifically for this is because it's the perfect size, and brightness which is very hard to find. I have a couple of other tablets and phones that I use for my drones, but this would literally be perfect. The next solution is just to buy another tablet, but for the price range nothing compares to this, and I feel like a hoarder and will get yelled at by my SO for having so much crap.
If anyone can find me a solution, scouts honor I will pp/venmo you $50 same day, no matter how big or small the advice is.
- is there anyway to force install this app?
- is there anyway to root this locked device or a workaround to install another OS?
- Anything I can do at all besides buying another tablet which is my last resport?

It's definitely for the advanced user and the chances of something going wrong is high, but it specifically lists the SM-T597.
Before attempting the above, you should try to ask someone who has been through the process to run device check to see if the OS is 32 or 64 bit in that thread.

The XDA forum links might be dead due to the migration on Dec 1, 2020 from the old platform to Xenforo. People were warned about it, but not everyone saw the notice I guess. I didn't check the other links though.
Sometimes the OEM unlock option is just people cut&paste instructions. Some tablets have it and some don't. I don't know about yours specifically as I don't have it.

If the app requires 64-bit, and the OEM does not allow you to install a 64-bit version of android, you are SOL.

Can I run AndroidTV on armbian?

Hey folks,
I've an old banana pi m2 berry which is working with armbian.
I just found an Tutorial to install Android TV on an Raspberry via LineAgeOS.
I tried LineAgeOS but it seems to won't work on my Banana Pi.
Any fast solution? Also would be fine to switch the OS of my Device again. Just want this for streaming etc on my TV.
I'm not an expert, but my guess is it's unlikely as Android TV is a modified version of Android, and Android is a long ways away from its original source of Linux. The reason Konstakang used Lineage is likely because it's based on android.
Maybe I find some other android Version which works on my device, thanks for the hint.
