    Default video player

    Is there either a Default Apps area nestled away somewhere in Settings, or if you head to the Apps section, then click on Movie Player, can you remove the default status there?

    google playstore error

    Have you tried installing them from a PC? As in visit https://play.google.com/store on your PC, sign in to the same Google account as you use on the Droix device, and click install?

    WiFi chipset info?

    From https://droix.co.uk/product/droix-x3/#section-technical_spec_tab : Amlogic S905X3 I realise that is the SoC rather than specifically WiFi, but as you mentioned Qualcomm and Realtek, I thought that might be what you're interested in.

    Cant click notifications

    Assuming you're using a controller that has a click/left mouse button function that can be held down, what happens if you click and drag down from the top left or right corners? I don't have this model to check it out, but that would be where I looked first. One other small thing, if your...

    Wi-Fi not connecting automatically

    I've not got one to test with, but a couple of things: 1) If you temporarily set up a hotspot on your mobile phone, can the A95X Max connect to it automatically? If it does, then we know that the modem's WiFi settings could be worth looking at 2) If you tell your device to forget the WiFi...

    Kodi users to receive threatening police letters

    Obviously don't ever break the law, and you'll be fine and shouldn't receive any letters. On an unrelated note, if you don't want people snooping on your activities (perhaps using your device away from home), a VPN can definitely help. Not sure if DroiX has an official recommendation, but I'm...

    Default Video Player

    @thewelder Might be worth checking if not transcoding videos (or conversely switching to transcoding files if it has been disabled) on the server will make the sound play as expected on your device.

    Late 2020 Windows 10 Update - WiFi Broken?

    Afternoon all. It has been a few months since I was around, hope all are well. Won't have time to go through all the new posts today, but have been meaning to post a quick thread about WiFi on the GPD Win again. Following the most recent big update to Windows 10, I found WiFi wasn't working...

    Real debrid

    I think the query was whether RealDebrid would notice/complain/suspend an account. Whilst I can't guarantee it, if you did not use the devices at the same time Gazza42uk, and both are signed up to the same VPN service, I don't think RealDebrid would notice.

    Internet connection cuts out

    The weather widget became a problem quite a few years ago when Yahoo (the company that provided the weather forecast info) changed their API, I believe. If a weather widget is important to you, installing a different launcher from the Play Store, and then a weather app that features a widget...

    Some settings are managed by your organisation

    Another possibility is that you've installed Office via signing in with your workplace email address. Last time I did this, there was an option you could select that would not give up control of your device's settings, might be worth a double check Graham. Also, if Windows Defender is turned...

    Old Droidbox boxes T8 /T8s

    You will definitely find that newer models have better specs and wider compatibility with apps and games due to the newer version of Android, but ideas for leftover hardware: Info screen/digital signs on a tight budget... If you have a community centre, charity shop or similar nearby, with an...

    Favourites List

    I don't have one of these to confirm my idea, but can you see if this offers any new options: Whichever button you normally use to "click" on the game you want to load, if you long-press it (so hold down for a good 2 or 3 seconds), does a new menu appear? If there isn't an option to set a...

    Droix x 3 WiFi 2.4Ghz or 5 Ghz

    It sounds a bit like he has two different WiFi networks, one specifically for 2.4GHz connections, the other for 5GHz connections (I'm with PlusNet as well). Whilst Nigelar's advice above definitely holds true if your modem/AP uses both frequencies on one network, if you deliberately have two...
