As we all know, the system of Xiaomi Box is based on Android 4.0.4, but because it is a deeply customized system, users may feel constrained when using it. Due to the super openness of Android, millet box has emerged as a third-party desktop through Recovery. Through this desktop, we can load applications at will, read files on the USB flash drive through OTG, and play local videos. This undoubtedly greatly enhances the playability of Xiaomi Box. Let's see how Xiaomi Box develops its potential.
Some readers may have doubts that millet boxes cannot be copied into the brush bag. What is the way to brush the machine? In fact, what is needed here is the OTG function of Xiaomi box. After inserting the USB flash disk, read the brush package in it to achieve the goal of machine brushing.
Enter the Recovery interface.
Select the brush package in the USB flash disk
Here is an explanation of the principle of this brush machine, In fact, the official Recovery (3e) is used to import a software package, including the most important initiator, through which various operations can be performed 。 After importing this package, we can freely install different applications on the millet box, or read the local video in the USB flash drive.
In fact, the original system of Xiaomi Box can be understood as a "starter" of Xiaomi Box itself, because the starter does not include common functions such as file management , so users cannot install applications on it. Through this third-party launcher and some related third-party software, Xiaomi Box can have an operating experience similar to the native Android system.
The following are some operation demonstrations:
The "rabbit starter" included in the brush package has a simple interface.
From the program menu, we can see that the application of millet box itself is built in. Of course, the most essential part is the file manager and settings (the good Root).
The settings are consistent with the general Android 4.0.
The file manager can view the contents of the USB flash drive, including installing various applications, playing videos, music, etc., which is the same as using Android phones and tablets.
Install the app.
We can even install some third-party initiators, but the layout will be disordered.
In the test, the author found that the video playback ability of Xiaomi Box is very good, and it can even play 1080P 60fps ref=16 mp4 files, which is very practical for high-definition players. The following is the actual video:
After all, Xiaomi Box is still based on the Android system. Naturally, there will be various ways to expand the game. This time, the cleaning package is just a small attempt to add a launcher, which will liberate the file management, OTG, local video and other functions. Through more system development in the future, I believe that Xiaomi Box can better show its charm.
