This has to be an April fool"s joke surely. 

I have a similar problem on a Minix U1 android box it mainly happens when i have a usb air mouse plugged into the OTG port but have the same problem sometimes in the other ports too. May be cause by the launcher that came with the box. I installed the Nova launcher from google play and it reduced the no of times it happens.
My solution is to put the box to sleep only and only power it off every couple of days, I remove the air mouse any time it stalls on powering up then remove power plug for a second or so and it nearly always starts.
I have two other Minix boxes the X8H+ and the U9 with different android software ( 4 and 6) and they don't have this problem so it may only be related to android 5 systems. Minix recommended  reloading the operating system from scratch but i haven't done that yet so you may want check to see if there is an updated operating system from the manufacturer.

I changed my url's  a few days ago and it is working fine.

If they are not a scam then the low end ones will be only usb 2 speed and will take you longer to transfer the data to them from your pc. They will still be fast enough  to watch movies or anything else you put on them though. I have three or four Sandisk ones that i use all the time without problems.

Solly. Its an X-H8 Plus.

 

I tried no end of times to update it, but it made no difference. There is a Lollipop update, but not sure if its available OTA yet as the Fire TV works fine so I've not bothered with it for about 6 months.

It won't be an OTA update. Still in Beta right now. Have to download an Image file to update to 5.1.1

Flawless on True 50Mps same problem. My back up IPTV service Boom Boom (USA Servers I think) worked a lot better so it is almost certainly an international bandwidth problem.

I use the turquoise measuring scoops that come in the big bags of washing powder. After washing them and lightly greasing crack the egg into them and place in a pan of boiling water for 5 mins. Could also use the rice measuring cups. Have tried the microwave devices and they all give poorly cooked rubbery eggs unless you add water to them which rather defeats the purpose unless you don't have a cook top available.

The sony android TV only have the components from the same MXQ box built in. so will not be an improvement over the box that you already have. Can buy a Smart or Non-Smart tv ( i use a minix box but it is is too complicated for the girlfriend so she uses the smart TV for you tube viewing etc. Plenty of 4k TV's on sale at Power Buy and other stores. I recently bought a 55 inch 4K TCL smart TV for 15990 baht , display model but works great and has same warranty as new. As a previous poster said the stand alone boxes are much easier to use.

Does anyone know if tobacco products are included in the banned substances? I receive some products by mail from sweden and may want to resend them on to someone.

What seems to happen: "human error".

There are some posts/pictures in Thai forums.

One shows a 10 yr validity and the poster is concerned that he might get trouble with that.

One picture shows an 18 yr validity.

Another one a 13 yr validity.

 

Maybe the 10000 Baht was not only for skipping tests but also for promoting "human error".

And after the error: is it legal and valid?

 

The (almost) 13 yr version:

Have seen a few licenses like this when renewing for the second or third 5 year one. The issue date is the date of your license is first issued.

I have credit on Ilikehd that i have transferred to the new HDPrime. will eventually use it after the teething trouble are over and the football season starts again.
Does anyone know if the new service includes all of the true/bein premier league shows? Have they manage to make the catch up TV work reliably. Always was poor using Ilikehd5 app.
I have  been using two new paid addons to kodi that work very well in thailand. Players Klub that was mentioned before in this thread, very good for USA channels but only British sports channels for $5 per month. Boom Boom Room is the other which is better for all of the UK entertainment channels and a lot of USA channels as well. Boom Boom has a better EPG than Player klub. Boom Boom is $9:50 a month but allows two logins at once so you could share a login with a friend. I share with a friend in UK and it works good there too.
Both can be set up to work using IPTV players like Perfect Player or GSE IPTV and work better than with KODI. Having two different ones costs about the same as HDprime now and gives more reliability as never had both go down at once.

You need to have a thai phone number to register an account with Ilikehd even for the free service. It works anywhere that there is good internet and they do not geo block. I have used mine when I was in the USA.

So they will have to wear socks with their Flip flops?

Could you just use a small hexagonal socket or box spanner (wrench)

Latest update requires that you install a video player with adverts galore.
Find an earlier version online, uninstall newest version then install older version.
If you cannot find online PM me and i will send you link to site that has one or email you a one (last resort)

I have the same box, this is the details of the adapter. The box specifications say that it needs 5V - 2Amps. The power supply is actually a 5V - 3amp so is oversized (chinese made)
Amorn sell a universal power supply  that I have bought before that can produce 1200mA so may work though is a little underpowered. Not sure if they sell a larger one. There are also several places in tukcom that sell used power supplies that may have the identical power. The polarity is shown in the picture, centre is positive as it nearly always is.

I mentioned on another thread the BBC iPlayer addon for Kodi (v 0.2.7 by Mikey1234) been around for a few years now still works fine in 720p without any VPN needed at all. Only works for BBC channels catch up tho.

Yes works fine for me too.

There is already regulations that govern Baht buses when being used for private hire. However good luck with it ever being enforced. Similarly for Motorcy fares.

Usually you can just repair (rewrite) the MBR w/ the install disk or other repair disk, not necessary to reinstall the OS. A number of free cloning programs will clone to a smaller partition. In fact many SSDs come w/ software for the purpose as it's a common issue.

I agree the cloning software would have worked if i was just replacing like for like but couldn't clone the hard drive as it had multiple bad sectors and would crash the system. That was why I had already moved the OS to another hard drive. The MBR was still on the bad drive. I tried a couple of free programs but none of them could actually move the mbr to another drive. As I had the system disks it wasn't a big deal to reinstall from scratch. The important piece of information that i was trying to get accross was  in a dual hard drive setup it is important to always keep the hard drive with the MBR on it or remove all of them when reinstalling the OS otherwise the MBR is not put on the disk that you have the OS on.

Tried to watch the Premier league on the new True/Bein channels, only problem is true is using thai commentry only on ILikeHD. shouldn't be a problem on true itself as you can normally change to english only but not available here. Not a big deal as watched the game on sky and BTsport instead. 

I also have a two hard drive laptop and with one drive failing I bought a 500 gb ssd to replace one of them. Pretty easy i thought as the operating system I had already moved to the second still good hard drive. i wanted to replace the original c drive with the new  SSD. 
Now comes the big problem, well medium sized, the original C drive also contained the MBR so if that was removed it would not boot at all and only would give error messages. I tried various free programs to try to move the MBR without any success. The only solution in my case was to only have the ssd installed and reinstall the operating system from the OEM discs. This would then install a new  MBR on the SSD and was able to boot from it. After this is done the other good hard drive was reinstalled and works fine. 
Note this only needs to be done on two hard drive systems where you wish to replace the one with the MBR. Cloning software that you get with the SSD would have done it if I was replacing it with like for like but the operating system was on a diiferent hard drive.

I just bought an SSD from them, paid by bank transfer. Arrived promptly and no problems. Make sure you specify EMS for shipping as it can then be tracked at the thai post website.

Newish Digital only Channel. If you have a digital ready tv then you may already be able to get it. Alternatively buy one of the 500 baht digital boxes or check with your cable tv supplier.

Last option if you have internet and an android box Ilikehd free channels should have it.
