I was one of the first few fellows to use UB and highly advertised this back then. I bought my box from UB directly in China, sent to SG.
One day the Bing browser thing suddenly appeared and i contacted the seller.

The seller told me that the only solution is to send it back to them in China and they send back. Of course, where got worth it and it's not even my fault. I wonder for those who bought from SG, the local vendors in Singapore can really solve or not.

Anyway I been using the gen 2 UB box to run Deke ever since.
Deke's resolution is definitely better cause it's using Maige's architecture of using CDN.

I went to UB's website and they also claim that they are using CDN now.
I wonder is their resolution as good as Deke/Maige.

People with the UB box can go for the Deke app ask for trial and compare.

I have experienced the same problem, UB became "Bing". I bought my box from a local reseller who claim to be authorised local reseller and will provide one-to-one on site exchange. But that is not true. When the problem surfaced, he run away fast fast. He claims that UB said my box leaks their program source and thus ban my MAC and warranty void.

Just bought the set and tried it out, using wifi connection. Have one irratating problem which i do not have with my existing minix. The unlobck set has lip sync issues on all the apps, including livetv. The audio lags a second after the lips move.

Btw, the unblock box is connected to a sounbblaster roar via bluetooth for audio duties as I'm using a monitor with no speakers (via hdmi)

Does anyone have any solution to this? Thanks a bunch!

I think i have kodi installed. But where to find these add-ons? Or where to find these apks? Do they have some sort of appstore, or all come separately?

Keep seeing kodi this word appear in most android box forum, may i check if kodi > everything else apks?

Hi there, thanks for the fb link.

Went in that page to see see, there is so many apps to chose from. My parents dont need that much, just one from each "region" to watch any latest show will do. Say for US drama/movie, korean drama/movie and hk drama, any "best" app" to use?

PS: is air mouse needed as some apps a bit hard to navigate using the stock remote.

This one has no digital tv receiption (DVB-T2) functionality right ?

Analog signal will be switched off this year end, after that can I use ubox to watch SG free channels like Channel 8, 5, U, without installing a digital tv box and antenna?

If lets say unblock company is closed down one day, I still can use the box like an android to surf net (browser/chrome app) and install new apps correct?

Is any signal/tracker sent back to unblock company, if lets say you access internet banking/email using app or browser inside unblock, will unblock know what you doing, will they know what password you type?

No but the live tv app has mediacorp channels.

After the singapore analog signal is switched off this Dec, after that is it possible to watch medicorp channels in the live tv app of ubox, using a tv that does not have/connect digital tv box?

I went to reinstall my kodi recently.
For HK/TW/JP/KR drama, get ICdrama. The current latest version is 1.3.

You will need to download aznhusband repo and url resolver.

Follow instructions here

If you want the chinese characters to come out.

ubox don't have that functionality to receive digital signal... its just that you can download apps like toggle to watch Singapore channels thru' the internet ..
