I was just looking for a hard drive to plug into my mecool km2 for expanded app storage and found 2 unopened android tv boxes & 3 unopened fire sticks :see_no_evil::joy:

Nothing near me yet

After I got the one Onn new tv box, I opened Troys video that showed how to set the box up. It was basically the same setup used for the 1st Onn box. But I noticed that in some parts of the set up in the video was set up either before or after it showed up in my setup. So I just waited for the video to catch up with me, or I would pause the video until I caught up with Troy. I just haven’t tried the built in speaker yet. I was surprised at all the various movies and apps that came preloaded. But I deleted the same apps that Troy did. I basically use TvMate anyway. I still have more storage space left than I will ever use, so I didn’t have to add a usb thumb drive. The color and picture is just as good as some other boxes I have used. It might better if I knew what I was doing. So I am pleased with this $50 deal. Thanks for every bodies help. Being a patron sure came in handy.

The Onn is half the speed of the Amazon Cubes. Doesn’t matter to cost to me. It equates to less spooling for the Cube. I wonder if the Onn will work with my Samsung Bluetooth remote. If it won’t that’s another strike against it for me.

My experience with Ethernet over a USB3 adapter wasn’t as good as others. My Shield will pull 6-700M over a cable to the same router as my Onn Pro, and the Onn is only getting 225-250 or so. That is with the VPN turned off as well.

I got a little bit further with recording in Tivimate but still no cigar. I finally got it to record to the USB drive by manually typing in the path that X-plore gave me for the USB recordings directory that I created, but when I go back to play the recording I get the “Error Occured: FileDataSourceException”. I also tried reverting back to ver 4.7 and still no go.

We may need to set up an intervention for you lol

Someone should make a video on the button factory reset method for these streaming devices because enough people have accidently bricked these messing with launchers and etc.

Picked up 2 yesterday, keep checking availability in your area, they sell out fast.

I just ordered one for curbside pickup in a few hours, I show it in-stock, available for shipping, pick-up, and delivery. Could just be my store but here is the URL:

https://www.walmart.com/ip/onn-Google-TV-4K-Pro-Streaming-Device-New-2024-4K-UHD-resolution-Dolby-Vision-Dolby-ATMOS-Hands-Free-Voice-Control-Smart-Hub/5193222892?athbdg=L1100&from=/search

Please make sure you buy the extended warranty that Walmart offers on most electronics. Was just reviewing my coverage for the 2023 ONN box that is good until 2025 for me. If the box goes bad I can still make a claim. Costs about $3 for coverage which will likely get you your $20 back.

I look at it and shows out of stock for delivery and shipping. Pickup only.

It must just be my store then, I still show all 3 options available.

That was for the link you gave in ND.

I went to Walmart’s website in my area, bought one and received it the same day. $52.87

I just got a fed ex shipping number. So hopefully it means they have it set to ship and no going back. Fedex still need to pick it up and deliver.

FYI I had to go out of state find a store with it in stock and shipping available. I did it just after midnight so maybe they set aside a few for shipping and leave the others for in-store only. :man_shrugging:
