🏆 Onn 4K Plus Review - New $29.88 Walmart Android TV Box

DaveZerf · 2025-08-07T19:09:57.163Z

I just bought a powered USB 4 port hub I have the Ugreen ethernet adapter in it, a 128gb flash drive,and the wechip dongle for the keyboard, although it no longer works with the 14 update.
The powered hub seems to have corrected my internet dropping issues for now.

Started to play more with my NEW plus. Loaded on the usual stuff, Stremio, Kodi, Syncler and Tivimate. I’m trying to compare it to the OS on my TCL tv. The one thing I noticed is when I do use, say Stremio I do pull up feeds that actually say 4K and does show DV. Now this never showed up on my TCL even though it is DV capable. Can someone enlighten me as to why? BUT, the feeds to not play without a lot of buffering even with small file size and a number of feeders. Thanks

Remy, just a guess here, but did you setup the settings in your TV settings?( LOL! too many settings in that sentence). I assume that you were referring to using your TV’s OS for streaming compared to the ONN. You should be able to adjust the settings to allow higher resolutions and most likely Dolby. And yes, anything that is a super big file may cause buffering.

I was just thinking, if you have Amazon Prime or subscribe to Netflix you won’t need to use a VPN which should give you more speed for the larger files. We have Prime and a subscription to You Tube, but I’ve never tried streaming either of those without the VPN. If I am wrong here, please correct me.

I would think TCL settings would automatically play the content in the best format but the Onn Plus doesn’t know you have a TV capable to show DV content

Bypass your VPN with those apps and services that don’t need to be hidden. Get your full ISP bandwidth not that a VPN should cause grief but you don’t need them.

I’m not sure who to address this issue to

I have the Onn plus setup following instructions and video in troys toolbox

I can not enable anything. Google tv switch back each time I try to enable

I have downloaded several launchers

-Projectivity launcher

-Mouse toogle for tivimate

Its say i am a developer but I must be missing something

Thanks in advance for the help

Some info here. Read the comment regarding android 14 and installing PL with atvTools and getting accessibility to stay on. That’s if you are running android 14

Use Launcher Manger to get Projectivy to work, you can get it from Troy’s tool box, for the mouse I bought tv quick actions pro and and set up the star button on my Onn remote.

Sbj5969 · 2025-08-17T01:56:42.701Z

how do i get the tv actions?

DaveZerf · 2025-08-17T02:37:50.616Z

You can get tv quick actions pro from the Google play store.

Sbj5969 · 2025-08-19T13:37:32.951Z

I have come to the conclusion that its the onn plus that is the issue

I cant get any app to enable

Launcher

Projectity

Mousetoggle

To name a few.

Hopefully they will fix it soon

Thank you

DaveZerf · 2025-08-19T15:54:39.179Z

It would be the apps that probably need to fix anything. They usually need to adapt and change some of their setting I guess in order to get their app to work correctly.
Plus had 14 from the start so none of that worked the way it should unless you had helper apps like Launcher Manager and tv quick actions.

Sok

Im not too savy with all this tech

Thanks

I appreciate it so much

It is comforting to get help with this process

DaveZerf · 2025-08-19T23:25:10.857Z

Here is Troy’s video for using tv quick actions to set up a mouse. If I can do it you can do it. You may be able to get buy with the free version of tv quick actions.

Here is his how to for getting Projectivy to work on the 4K Plus, start at 10:00 and you should be good, if you have questions ask here or I believe you can message me on here some how.

The 4K plus Is faster than the 4K pro. Please look up the Greek scores. However, it would not allow me to load Cinema HD, no matter which version I tried. Also, it would not allow me to load YouTube ad free apps. Not for me if I can’t load my apps, I use a lot. I use very few apps.

Disappointed.

DaveZerf · 2025-08-24T00:20:09.256Z

I have put Cinema HD and Smart tube on 2 plus boxes with no issues. As well as the dreaded Flix Vision, HDO Box, Onstream, even Cinema HQ and that one had a 28 out of 77 on the Virus Total scan.
I wonder if it is different versions of the app that may cause this.

As for fast,I honestly could not tell the difference in operation between the Plus and the Pro when set up the same way.

Larryw · 2025-08-24T01:54:00.121Z

Thank you for letting me know

Meh….

Wizzard · 2025-09-10T21:27:03.044Z

This post was started 6 months ago, it’s nice you finally caught up and read it and understand the depth of this box. Well done..

I recently purchased 3 ONN 4K Plus units while in the USA last month. I installed all 3 units in our hotel room prior to our return to Canada. All 3 units installed without any issues in the USA, once back in Canada I installed my my apps (Downloader, Kodi, Tivimate, Projectivy, etc.) with zero issues. These boxes are performing flawlessly to date.
