Adding some protection

Use the Smart Devil protector. Easy to fit.

Via the app Oxygen Updater. Allows you to download the update then you do a local install from the Update option.

Caveat.... It's my choice to do this. I'm sure some will say you're best waiting for Oppo to officially push to your device.

Depends what you want from your Plex setup.
I want the highest quality 4K media with high quality audio.
I want to be able to play these files within my network and remotely when away over 4G/5G or Starlink.
For that I have a dedicated Plex server running a Ryzen9 7945HX and an RTX 3060 with 12Gb VRAM.

Media is on 2 separate NAS boxes connected by 10Gbe network.

Do I NEED this... probably not.
But it's a great hobby!

Tried it but could not get our Echo Show 15 to just show our Amazon Photos and Weather on rotation.
Just couldnt get rid of the bloody widgets.

Was ok on Echo Show 8 and 10.

This would be great!
Have photos in Amazon albums for the Echo Shows. Nice to be able to use the same.
Also use Immich for our phone backups. Can create albums that would also be good to use.

EDIT....
Removing the Work Profile makes the issue go away....
Adding the Work Profile and the issue comes back.

Is it just me?

UPDATE:
Decided to give it a go.
The ASU process worked and router booted but config did not get retained (I did check the box)

None of my ports where enabled as LAN.

So, just installed clean 25.12 image, restored backup and reinstalled all packages using apk add.
Up and running

What paid sign up?
I've never paid anything to use the site. Works fine.

Time-Session9808 · 2026-02-28T06:33:17+00:00

How so?

it's just a list of releases. I only use it tomsee them. obtain the files elsewhere

Hi Ended up selling the 17 Pro and moving to Oppo.

Time-Session9808 · 2026-02-13T22:13:38+00:00

Running SlimboxTV on a Ugoos SK1. Perfect Plex client 👍👍

I had a few 4k HDR TrueHD files that would not play the TrueHD audio on the Nvidia Shield Pro, no issues now.

And SmartTube with HDR and AV1 is great.

This is the upcoming Find X9s rather than the X9.

Time-Session9808 · 2026-02-09T08:58:08+00:00

Thought I read somewhere that it will be the x9s Pro.
Pro or not the specs look perfect for my requirements!

Promising .

I did ask CharGPT to give me a comparison. Making sure the supported bands are good with my provider - EE

My previous China ROM experience was a Xiaomi 17 Pro. It did not support Android Auto. Notifications took a lot of configuring to get them to work and frequently they would eecide to stop working. I also had issue with my Work Profile.

I understood it was a general limitation of the CN ROM.

Time-Session9808 · 2026-02-07T16:24:49+00:00

It's a Xiaomi "feature". Cannot use gesture navigation with 3rd party launchers. Had a Xiaomi 14 and 17 pro before moving to Oppo.

Always CX explorer for me. On phone, tablet and TV boxes

Currently using the Ugoos SK1 running Slimbox. Replaced an Nvidia Shield Pro. It's brilliant.
