[ROM] Beelink GT-King ALVATECH Standard Android (9.0 Pie) S922X

This is a nice clean ROM with some tweaks, GUI cleanup, Mods and some changes made from the original GT-King ROM.
Please read the entire post before asking questions. Thank you.
(There has been some hardware variants so please read carefully.)
Best thing to do before flashing your box is to check which Serial Number you currently have on the bottom of your box.
I've made 2 different ROM's for these boxes one for boxes starting with SN: 922X & SN:95X2 and another one for SN:B922
Please download the correct ROM for your box down below.
Changes/Mods & Tweaks Alvatech ROM:

This ROM is based off of Beelink's Firmware.
Removed unneeded apps that Beelink had installed.
Cleaned up Beelink's scripts that I don't use in this ROM.
Nicer mouse cursor for easy viewing.
Double click home brings up Recent Apps in Grid View.
Clock setup in 12hr format.
Two Launchers: Square Home 3 , Android One Launcher.
Added TV Settings in app drawer.
Additional Apps: X-Plore File Manager, Smart YouTube TV, Netflix, Kodi, & Power Menu (With Recovery Boot Option)
Support for controllers and joysticks. (Xbox,PS3 & PS4)
Added additional *kl files to support more devices.
Removed and cleaned up files that are no longer needed.
Added 4K support for different YouTube versions.
Updated Generic.kl to use the "Enter" Key.
Fixed a permission grant issue
Added Google Clock
Updated Gapps
Alvatech Boot Logo & Boot Animation
New Wallpaper
TWRP has been added.
Other system tweaks and changes, I'll update more info as I remember.

Used latest version of Beelink's ROM as a base to build this.
Added New ROM for SN:B922
Updated Apps: X-Plore File Manger, Smart YouTube TV, and Kodi
Updated Gapps.

Other small changes.

Changes 09/18/19:

Used latest version of Beelink's ROM as a base to build this.
Made 2 different ROM's for the different serial numbers.
All changes from above still apply
Updated Apps: Square Home 3, X-Plore File Manger, Smart YouTube TV, & Kodi
12 Hour Static Fixed.
Updated Gapps & Permissions
Top status bar is now working.
Other small changes.

Notes:
Please read the "Extra Tips Section" on the 2nd post for additional help.
When box boots for the first time only, installation is still going on in the background please be patient for it to load completely.
When you connect the box to the internet for the first time google dependencies will need to be updated, please allow for these updates to finish.

Download ROM's:
Download from FreakTab's Website / Forum

Installation Instructions:Recommend Using Latest Amlogic's USB Burning Tool 2.1.7.0 or later. SD Card Method can be used.

First open the USB Burning Tool, then in the top left corner click File / Import image and click on the downloaded ROM image file. When you finish loading the ROM press the Start button on the right hand side of the USB Burning Tool. Next plug in one end of the USB cable to your PC. USB 3.0 ports on a PC seem to work better than the USB 2.0 ports, but USB 2.0 ports work too. Next plug in the power cable to your box, and as soon as you see the eyes turn green on the box, you need to immediately plug in the other end of the USB cable into the USB 2.0 port of your box (the one next to the power jack). Do not use any other USB ports as they will not work. Be persistent until you succeed if you fail at first.

Very Important! when you flash your box either by USB or SD-Card NEVER use the option Force Erase All only use the Normal Erase option or you will lose DRM Widevine L1.

1ST BOOT TAKES ABOUT 5-6 MINUTES, SO PLEASE BE PATIENT.
THIS DELETES ALL YOUR DATA SO DO A BACKUP IF NEEDED! USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!

This is to share my work with everyone and to try to make these TV boxes more enjoyable.
I will try my best to answer or help with any questions and or concerns as soon as I can.
If something doesn't function properly please let me know with as much detail as possible and I will try to fix it.
When posting for help please stay on subject, If it doesn't pertain to this ROM please search other threads for help or start a new thread.
I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS I DO!!

Thank you! Beelink for the sample hardware.

No ... developers do not know how !!!

It's not that we can't figure it out. It's just very time consuming getting a lot of these different bugs worked out. Also the SDK is huge it's over 68GB of data. This alone getting all of this setup on PC would take a while and the one they sent us is also outdated by now since the last changes they made wouldn't be on the SDK they sent us. Anyways it looks like hopefully they will be releasing a new ROM soon with the status bar fixed.
Thank you,

Alvatech

Hello,
So it looks like Beelink has released another batch of boxes and this is why it doesn't work on your box. I'm guessing the box you have is the newer ones with changed hardware. So if you read on firmware link for GT-King you'll see they made 2 different ROM's now. Look at link down below 2 different SN's.
Thank you,

Alvatech

Hello,
Not sure what's happening. I have flashed this ROM on my Box about 10 or more times without any issues you might want to try to flash the box again. Maybe something didn't flash properly.
Thank you,

Hi ALVATECH, if what you say is true, this would be unbelievable, creating a second box with modified hardware would be like admitting that you had something wrong in the first, at this point beelink makes things clear and if it is true it must withdraw the old version.

From what I gathered it seems they had changed memory types when certain memory stock was low, so then the ROM & SN is changed to make sure it's compatible with the different RAM when one type of RAM is unavailable and low on stock.
Thank you,
