My MiWifi Router version is 2.2.11. Router firmware version is 2.10.14.

I guess I need some more experimenting... I'm changing to this APP version now. Our routers unfortunately have different Versions.
But, if it is of any use for you, for the Mini Router was an english language firmware released. To activate it, you just need to switch your wifi-region to europe, after rebooting let the router check for updates again (new update should be available) and later change it to english in the settings ;-)

Mine is Mi Router 2 1TB (小米路由器2(R2D)). Yours also the same?

How to change wifi-region to Europe?

i1magic did you get the USB TV stick T230 and get it working on your Xiaomi TV? I'm think of getting either this or the PT360, I think both also will need the OTG adapter please advice sir.

I got the MyGica T230 USB DVB-T2 already, it is now being use on my PC for me to watch TV on my PC.

I tested it with my Mi TV 2 55" by plugging it directly to the USB port on the TV but somehow, it didn't work. Not sure it's because I didn't do certain part correctly or really cannot work. I haven't tried any other method yet.

I have the Mi Mini Router with a 1TB Hard Drive connected to it. But even after all the experimenting with different Firmware of router and Android APK I can't convince the TV to show the movies in the video player gallery :(

Here is a list with the firmwares of the Routers that should support English:

Maybe you don't need to switch the WiFi Region to Europe then.
But honestly, I normally use the Android APK to change settings in the router. So as long as everything works fine, I wouldn't reccomend to change anything :p

I've read tat T230 is suited for Windows while PT360 is for Android, perhaps that could be the reason. But anyway it is quite challenging getting the correct OTG USB adapter cable. Couldn't find normal USB male at one end and female micro on the other.

yup correct. and to add, the PT360 (which i own) can also be used for pc/windows by just installing the windows driver to recognise the "USB" device with a working microusb-USB adapter. try searching for my earlier post for the working adapter which i bgt locally.

I've successfully installed playstore on Xiaomi tv2 55" with the help from link given below. I was trying almost 6 months to do it and finally managed to see it running. Some apps will show "device not compatible" message, but still better than nothing. I'm on firmware 1.1.70

How much did you pay for the MyGica PT360? I got the PT230 for my PC already and I'll just use it for my PC.

Can you share the link that you bought from?

All the movies on my PC show up on my Mi TV 2 with the cover picture. I plug a thumbdrive with 3 movies into the USB port of the Mi Router 2 1TB.

I can see the 3 movies on the thumbdrive via the video player app on Mi TV 2 but it doesn't display with cover pictures.

Anyone knows if can the Mi tv 3 has a lot of ads? And how to get around or disable them. I have an android box, if I use it to get internet access, do I avoid all the ads of tv3?

And anyone knows how much 65Daigou charges to ship?

How much is it for the shipping and total price paid?

My estimate for the tv without the subwoofer is around 0.26cbm.
The volumetric weight would be 0.26 X 1000000 X 1.1 / 6000 = 47.7kg.
The shipping cost would be 48 X 2 X 1.15 = $110.40 (not including the cost of crating and GST yet)
This is just my estimate.
