    true .. but ever heard of opportunity-costs? :)
    option 1) wasting my time almost a year in this forum, not enjoying my media and always just flashing and testing the device ..
    or option 2) spend 200 more bucks ..
    -> i think option 1 costs at least 600 bucks
    ... so .. i prefer option 2 :)

    you are right, @stefan-ott. let me test the 18$ crap which I took for 2nd TV and will see if it's time for a major update. the x6 started to freeze with noisy sound signal in kodi (not doing this in mxplayer with the same local file) and also is running slower, even if I uninstalled almost everything, so I guess soon is going to leave us for the "hunting forever wild land" how winnetou used to say :D
    anyway I should wait to see shield 2 first. if it's amazing, I might go for it, or I could take advantage of some shield 1 stock sales ;)

    neamielu, overtemperature? In the long run can damage the whole device (even throttling should protect processors...)
    stefan-ott, spend those 200 bucks and enjoy a Shield. Is not perfect (even this device has some bad reports), but could satisfy you. "Could" :p

    @PacoRabanne yes, I guess is the temperature. It gets quite hot, even if I keep it up from base. shall I fix a cooler on it? :D

    I'm lucky, some rubber spacer and never had a overtemperature.
    If your device is no more under guarantee, try to open it and check if more air is enough.
    Else ask to Zidoo if there is a way to cool it more without guarantee loss.

    P.S. have you searched if there is any app able to show CPU temperature working on X6 Pro?
    P.P.S. this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.yanyan.cputemp seems good, well reported. Not yet tested by me...

    @PacoRabanne , yes, this is what i am doing.. enjoying it :)
    you can continue wasting your time here, waiting for the x6 to work just sufficiently enough to actually be able to use it at all :) ..
    .. whatever is not perfect with the shield .. it is still 1000x better and way closer to perfect than this x6 .. and not to forget the same applies for the x9s :)

    Not completely. Now my X9S, after the update to 1.2.4 FW, has the analog video out no more working, is a recognized bug and I'm waiting for a new release.
    So I still use my orld X6, that for me in this moment is enough.
    And when I'll definitively move to X9S, I'll give my X6 to my brother (less severe then me), so I'll continue to follow this forum (and bother you :p )

    Besides 5GHz band wifi connection not working at all (as complained in other threads already), I can confirm that all the other functionalities I use on the box are working fine with this latest upgrade.

    oh.. and here the trash zidoo gives me

    Dear Stefan,
    As we said before,the product is order one year ago,our warranty is one year.
    Of course if you have any question about the product,we will have life time Technical Support,but it can't return and refund for more than one year.
    You also said in the order,this is not the product problem and it's not broken,it's not meet your standard.
    We suggest you continue use it and if have problems about the product,we will help you.
    Thanks have good day.
