Try this. It work on my xiaomi box 2, hopefully it work for your xiaomi box 3 too.

Copy the apk to your thumb drive.
Connect thumb drive to your xiaomi box
Launch “高清播放器” under the "应用" tab and look for your thumb drive (you might need to reboot your xiaomi to see the thumb drive)
Navigate to the folder where your apk is and click on it. The app should install.

The new Mibox can use wireless to install apks just drag and place. Manage to install a numbe of apps but cannot install google play store.

After updating to latest firmware seems like storage greatly decrease. Can't seems to load in much apps. Anyone knows how to increase the storage capacity or can use USB thumb drive as alternative install location for apps?

I think you need to install google services... not sure how though.

Another way to install remote on Mibox 2 is by below method

1)【应用--应用商店--管理工具--远程安装】
2)it will shown a IP address to remote access the Mibox 2 via your PC/labtop web browsers on the same net work .
3)from the web browsers .. select the file to install ..

I don't think so.

This is one limitation of mibox2. Small memory and not expandable. mibox2 don't have SDcard slot.

Some version of andriod allows memory card in SDCARD slot to store APK.

May be this decrease in storage is one method from xiaomi to let them sell more mibox3.

The mibox3 has 8GB and also a SDCARD slot.

Other brands has less problems.

I think you need to install google services... not sure how though.

I still can't install play store yet though. What I am doing is open up browser from MiniX Metro launcher, download the application APKs and install them on Mibox directly.

a few steps to install playstore:
1. Root the box
2. Copy GoogleServicesFramework, GoogleLoginService, vendor apks to system folders data/app and system/app
3. Change the property of these apk to rw-r--r--
4. reboot

I use the default remote control most of the time.
Having said that, some apk works better with a mouse.

So on the rare occasion that I need it, I connect my normal laptop wireless mouse to the xiaomi box. This is by connecting the wireless mouse USB dongle to the OTG cable.
Somehow, I couldn't connect direct to the XiaoMi box inbuilt Bluetooth.

For mibox 2 dont have usb so need to use otg cable.
As for keyboard or mouse support i no too sure.
Bluetooth i think is 4.0

For mibox 2 pro have usb liao. It supports wired mouse and keyboard i tested it liao.
Bluetooth is 4.0 but i cant get it to detect my mouse.

Since mibox3 have SDCARD slot, but not sure if the OS allows you to install apk in SDCARD or at least use SDCARD for some of the apps storage.
