Please test my new RockB firmware
Download Link: Here
Pass: Rock5B_5513
Flash with Etcher to micro-sd or emmc

Also test bluetooth remotes and give your bluetooth remote name and address
Also test different bluetooth/wifi nvme cards
Test video playback

No stock Google launcher, will add it in future.
If most bugs are fixed, I’ll try to make firmware for other devices.

Hey, thanks for your new Firmware. Can i burn it onto NVME ? because i dont have eMMC and SD Card i can forget it with only NVME SSD in my Hand currently. Is it an ATV version or just normal AOSP version ?

Thanks

mo123 · February 24, 2025, 12:03pm

This is only updated AndroidTV for the normal Rock5B.
When users post bugs and they are all fixed later, I’ll make Rock5B+(emmc/sd + nvme), Rock5BPro(emmc/sd), updated Rock5B(emmc/sd + nvme), Rock5A(emmc/sd), Rock5C(emmc/sd) firmwares.

Hi mo123: can you please cook a firmware for 5b+ nvme version with actual changes from 5b so that those who have 5b+ could test it and give you the feedback ?
Because I am not seeing anyone who has seen, used and tested your new 5b ROM till now and till you get the feedback I guess you probably won’t cook firmware for other devices.
My humble request to you, instead of waiting for 5b users and their feedbacks can you simultaneously(I mean at present) cook an ATV firmware for 5b+ which installs on nvme ? I am ready to test it now and give you feedback what works and what not on 5b+.

Will you atleast do that for us please?. Thanks I’m advance

Hi could you please send me the password? Thanks

Manu_B · February 25, 2025, 8:32pm

Password is right below the download link mate. Just check it yourself

jonmuss · February 25, 2025, 9:16pm

Hi I have checked and double checked but still not able to see password! Have checked below all download links but nothing that resembles a password or mention of one! I know I’m old but I don’t know why I can’t see it!

Manu_B · February 25, 2025, 10:19pm

Just have a look at post from mo123 from yesterday. The password is right below the download link : for your information the password is Rock5B_5513. If you have 5b just try this Firmware and give your feedback to mo123 that will help him to produce firmware for other devices also. Thanks and Enjoy

@mo123, I tried the firmware on a SD-card;

I’ve tried to add a remote from a other android TV box and couldn’t add it anymore.
I’ve tried to add a Xiaomi RC, but couldn’t add it (failed to pair)
The next day I’ve tried to add the Xiaomi remote again and paired right away. But now the remote isn’t responding to any input
On your older build, I’ve used my LG remote through HDMI CEC, but that isn’t working on this build
Added 2 Xbox controllers and they work flawlessly, but also got multiple times that they couldn’t pair at first.

Unrelated: My second daughter was born a few weeks ago, so my time for testing is very limited. But feel free to contact me for any further questions.

mo123 · February 26, 2025, 2:24pm

@Dn_nS

For the different remotes:

For Android
Post the output of
adb shell getevent -p

Use this app to test the keys on your remotes and then save the keylayout files.
https://apkpure.com/gamepad-tester/ru.elron.gamepadtester/download

For Linux
lsusb | grep Xiaomi
dmesg | grep -i bluetooth
cat /proc/bus/input/devices

HDMI CEC is broken in new firmware, waiting several weeks for Radxa to provide a solution.

Need help to root the latest version please. I have installed software but do not see how to patch the magisk boot image. I run magisk from the already installed software but just get a blank screen! Could someone please give me a simple step by step guide on how to do this? I follow how to install the boot image I think!
Update: I have worked it out ok now just had to do a bit more digging!

mo123 · February 27, 2025, 5:20am

Link updated a few posts above for Rock5B.
Fixed HDMI CEC
Fixed some sound issues
Choice between 2 launchers

Test if bluetooth works better.

zench1k · February 27, 2025, 7:10pm

Hi. I tried new 1.20 firmware. Can’t connect bt remoute ugos ur02. Error: wrong pin or pass. And Will be good if you add Russian language to firmware.

Manu_B · February 28, 2025, 10:34am

Hi, could you able to Root your 5b in this latest Firmware ? would you mind sharing the steps you did to successfully root your Device please ?
Is your Playstore throwing any error like your Google Device is not certified or something like that ? because in my 5b+ with official Radxa A12 Tablet Firmware it constantly throws this error.
How is the overall performance of this Firmware ? about its Video/Audio playing performance etc etc…
Thanks in advance.
