My main reason for Ugoos is I don’t care for no stinkin’ google certifications…

For those interested in root access, the SK1 comes with a root switch via the Magisk app. By enabling this feature and restarting the box, you can gain root access, allowing you to customize the box even further.

So while I’m admitting my ignorance, I didn’t know about the root switch either. I quick read tells me that is like a key to the back door of the box allowing me to change anything I wanted i.e. operating system. So I don’t know the difference between Android 11 and Android 14 or any of the other Android TVs. Is that something I’d even want to update? Miki are you giving lessons???

While looking for the best price, someone (I think it was SimBill) mentioned a Mini (computer/???) store would be a place to order without the tax. Anyone want to tell me where I would find this place online? Thanks

Hey I have never had a box with a root switch and I would have to do a ton of learning to know what it can do for me. @TXRon is far and away more knowledgeable about that stuff than I am. Same goes for widevine and as far as certifications go I have never watched you tube or netflix.

OMG a box that even has a switch that recognizes exactly what and who @PapaS is. A SUPERUSER. Damn, no wonder he wants two.

Thank you Ron. You are a gentleman and a scholar.
I’ve been reading up on the newer SK1 and thinking I’ll pull the trigger on it for our primary TV. Will the X4Q be a decent choice for secondary TV?

The x4 is a decent “stock” box. No certs. Sorta like a mecool box. Would be great as a 2nd tv box for iptv, kodi etc.

Same here on Brave browser. As soon as the page opened a popup appeared asking if I wanted to translate to English.

Same on my Pixel Tab when chrome opens the page. Translate pops up on the top. Trouble is I don’t feel I can trust this site.

The dev is legit, been doing it a long time. You will find his/their work all over the mod verse.
