Ever since updating to Android9 on my OG MiBox, I can no longer turn the MiBox on with my IR Harmony remote. Most other functionality seems to work; including power-off with IR. But it won't power-on (wake up from sleep) with IR. I have to use the Bluetooth remote to wake it up/ power on.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Any ideas on how to trouble shoot/fix?
has anyone noticed after the new update the included BT remote doesnt turn the mibox3 on anymore? seems like the old bug is back unless its just a glitch?
Same problem here... i noticed that if I keep pushing the on/off button on the “device” folder sometimes it works...
I thought I was going crazy being the only one with this issue.
Sadly, I have not found a fix and am using the same workaround as you : use the BT remote. It even got the shut down issue a few times since the update where I have to restart it by unplugging.
There is also the Ethernet adapter I sometimes have to unplug it from the USB port and put it back in.
Yup. Same problem. It has worked a few times, but most of the time it won't start the mibox.
Push the middle d-pad button to turn it on: power buttons turns it off, middle click turns it on IME on other remotes.
EDIT: Just went & checked, it no longer functions that way on the Mi Box (OEM remote still turns it off & on without issue?) but functions as described above on the shield, as it has since I got it a few years ago.
My mi box won't turn on after putting it in the sleep mode using the original remote, pretty annoying. Never had this issue till updating to android 9.
Ohh so is just a remote and hub correct, if so remove plug and un plug system then add the hub to box
Delete and re connect
Mine works fine with the IR blaster that my phone has, I use the MiRemote tho.
As we Mibox 3 users know very well: xiaomi updates are very bug and even worse the bugs are inconsistent, so you might as well have a bug that I don't have. If it's not a bug, xiaomi probably changed the IR code in the update. It's dumb, but again as we mibox 3 users know very well xiaomi updates aren't very good.
