@Jeppa
On Q30 try make clear data for Android Remote Service.

[Jeppa]

Thanks for the answer!
But that did not change anything :/

I tried to update Android Remote Service from Playstore, but that does not work.

Please check if yous Q30 run Android Remote Service v2.1.02.4477839 as default installed from CFW, this version can be updated from Google Play to v3.3.30266681.

[Jeppa]

Sorry for the delay...
just checked:

My version is 2.2.04e.5151322 .
That is the version from the CFW (update_Q30_(unofficial_ATV[v2.15.2])-HMD-2.1.5 2019-12-11.163956.zip)
--> AtvRemoteService.apk

PS: tip with v2.1.02.4477839 was great.
As downgrading doesn't work, i replaced the apk in root with version v2.1.02.4477839 from v2.15.0 pack!
Now it works!

I'm streaming IPTV using this build and it works very well with KODI 18.6, Tivimate and GSE. The only issue I have is that AC3 5.1 IPTV streams are only playing in stereo 2.0. Is this a result of the hardware that will only play surround sound 5.1 through the Himedia player? If so is there a Kodi build or other software I can use that will allow 5.1 IPTV streams to work on this box? Looks like shitty builds are gone. Thanks for any assistance.

@atkinsom you can give a try of fritschfiretv build.
More then 3 years archive of test-builds

Thanks pcristi. I tested the firetv version and it didn't correct the issue. I reimaged the box and downloaded the last version of shitty Kodi in March from your link above and did an upgrade on the installed version in your firmware image. Everything works perfect now with IPTV streams. Thanks very much.

I have been using update_Q10Pro_(update&themed&Kodi18.2)[v1.2]-HMD-2.1.4 2019-05-31.171152
Can I install this?
I've tried but after seeing the Android logo, it turns into a dead logo.

I installed the Q5 Pro version and it works awesome!!! No complaints BUT to get it to work you have to do the following below exactly or at least in my case I did it this way.

1. Download latest version for your box from here.. http://www.mediafire.com/file/t2d1heh5a5om0rq/update_Q10Pro_%2528unofficial_ATV%255Bv2.15.3%255D%2529-HMD-2.1.5_2019-12-10.113757.zip/file

2. Format USB stick FAT32... NOTE: Not all USB's work as I found out so I had to try 3 different ones until I found one it liked. Seems like 8GB or bigger sticks work well for me...all my 4GB sticks failed despite formatting dozens of times

3. Copy the file to the stick and rename the file to update.zip ...VERY VERY important or it won't work. Double check the filename after you change to make sure it's correct using windows properties

4. Plug USB into available USB port on your device

5. Use paperclip to hold in the reset button and while holding the reset button plug the power into your device and don't let go of the reset button for 5 seconds

6. Sit back and wait about 15 minutes for the whole process to complete

Good Luck

For me YouTube TV not working at all

Included Plex as well as Play store clean install is causing SystemUI has stopped error

Gboard does not allow use of Air-Mouse ( Leankey is better )
