I just got my Plus box this morning. Overall, it seems pretty good. Like Troy and others have pointed out, ProjectIvy won’t autoload without installing Launcher Manager. Unfortunately, I’ve noticed an undesirable effect of installing Launcher Manager. With it installed, it disables the * (Settings) key. The key even stays disabled even after uninstalling Launcher Manager.

One tip I can pass along. If you ā€œbrickā€ the device (don’t ask how I know), you can reset the device to Factory Defaults by holding the button on the back of the device while powering up the device. A menu will appear on your screen. You cycle through the menu by pressing the button. A long press of the button selects the item.

I bought 1 about 2 weeks ago. And i’m super happy with this device, very impressed. I watched tp vid the latest one, and I don’t know. He said that as of now, adding storage, doesn’t work? But I did manage to add the scan disk a 128 gig as external storage. Only not formatted as internal, because it would not see it. I’ve downloaded a bunch of movies to it and works brilliantly. Xplore mgr. handles it. But haven’t tried Live TV yet on TV.
Mate. I did notice that when I start the device every so often. I have to restart it and then it picks up the flash drive .I kept odb debug off. Will update post if i’m successful in recording.Live tv also.

I’m now in love w/ kodi after watchin @Jayhawks659 full a-z kodi set up. Got it set up w/ rd n umbrella. FLAWLESS !!! IF YA DIDN’T SEE IT, check it out.

Good notes @BobC ! Yeah, the guide button doesn’t work either but keep in mind with tvQuickActions Pro you can map all of those buttons exactly like I show in the video.

Hello, I made an edit on my comment about storage and posted a video showing how to do it and the video is a couple posts above yours. Thanks for your review of the Onn 4K Plus!!

Understood. But I did get to add the 128G flash leaving it as a seperate external drive n not migrating to internal w/out use of remote adb cuz i couldn’t scroll to add local host. Hovever, Now that i watched ur entire vid on superchg. Onn +, noticed ur instructions on mouse toggle. Going to redo or maybe not. They say if it ain’t broke don’t fix. Think Ill buy another onn + n set it up ur way. Always enjoy tinkering to learn more. But must say: this onn+ box is the bomb !!! Thanx :blush: for all u do.

Since I usually turn on my TV/ONN box by pressing the Home button on the ONN remote, I took a different approach to making ProjectIvy my default launcher. Instead of installing Launcher Manager, I installed tvQuickActions Pro and assigned ProjectIvy to the Home button. Works great. I press the Home button and that turns on the TV, the ONN box, and launches ProjectIvy.

.I have Projectivy as the launcher (general under Projectivy settings) not using any other launcher.

I use Button Mapper not QuickActions, I use ATVTools for a mouse from my phone, works great.

No problem with home button or Free TV button and no problem with accessibility option. Set it up Wednesday night, accessibility is still set tonight for both Projectivy and Button Mapper.

Oh, in a previous message I whined about ā€œSend Files to TVā€ not working, I reinstalled and that fixes that.

I haven’t had time to look at storage but I did remove user 10 and my Onn 4K with Google TV then saw the drive again but prompted me to format so I am not sure if the apps are still viable or if it will need formatted, had to do tech support for a friend… You know how it goes. :slightly_smiling_face:

I currently use Tivo 4k’s and all apps work fine. Does anyone know if Films Plus F+, Cinema, Surf Shark, Prime work with ONN 4k

All those apps should work fine…both devices are android.

Hi I just got Onn
I’ve set it up
Got filmplus and bee tv showing all shows when I try to play links none work on either :face_with_peeking_eye:
I’m not puter savvy so please be nice n patient im in uk if that helps

Are the accessibility problems due to an Android 14 compatibility issue?

Also, fyi for everyone wanting to install ATV Pro (or Wolf Launcher) instead of ProjectIvy, those seem to work great in combo with LM on this Plus box.

I don’t think so as I can toggle that button on the Onn 4K Streamer just fine.

I’ve noticed what appears to be a deviation in operation between the Plus and previous ONN boxes. I have my new Pro box installed on a 32" older Vizio TV Here’s what I’ve noticed.

With my previous, first generation ONN box, pressing the Home button turns the both the TV and ONN box on and the TV immediately changes input to the HDMI port that the ONN box is connected to.

With the new Pro box, pressing the Home button turns both the TV and ONN box on, however when the TV comes on, it’s in TV mode (mode it was in previously). If I press the Home button again after the TV comes on, then it switches input to the HDMI port that the ONN box is connected to.

I have every generation of ONN boxes made, including the Pro version. All boxes, with the exception of the Plus, work the same when pressing the Home button. If the TV was in TV (antenna) mode when turned off, pressing the Home button turns the TV on and immediately switches the input to the HDMI port that the ONN box is connected to.

Have others noticed this difference?

Get a kick out of these people who screw with this usb-c stuff when they can buy an Onn pro for 20 bucks more. 16 gigs more of storage and comes with ethernet and usb port. What am I missing here?
