They fixed the WiFi issue. They fixed the Google Play Store. So kudos to Beelink here! However, the dark screen problem existed for a great long while now, and still nothing to show. This is serious because it makes it difficult to see and enjoy different photos and videos. Considering what these boxes suppose to be for, we really getting the worse end of the stick. The other guys have addresses this problem, and without needing to use bootvideo setting.

I don't see why they don't give updates to the A912 SN boxes fore example the latest 113M0. I have ordered this box six different times for different people and myself and each time I order this box they always send me the A912 box. So not sure why they wouldn't update this ROM at the same time they make a new ROM for QCA9377 chipset. You figure they would especially if they seem to only be sending out the A912 boxes now.

Good thing I make my own ROM or else I would be really upset.  I make my own fixes. But this is pretty bad that Beelink isn't providing equal support for the same box just different SN/chipset.

I haven't seen an actual fix, or a good workaround for the dark screen. I seen utilities to adjust the brightness and contrast levels. However they fail to even come close to what the screen is suppose to be like... visually. Waste of time including Screen Brightness and Contrast adjusters, completely useless.

If I had an Ultimate GT1 box I would try to fix the box for the dark screen. I don't use any apps to adjust my brightness nor contrast. But we'll have to see if Beelink actually comes out with a fix hopefully soon. I know they know of it. I think they are just having problems getting it going. Other companies have done it like Minix so if I had a problem I couldn't figure out I would ask for help or at least some guidance as to how to. This has been going on for way tooo... long now.

Well, if Android 7 has actually been corrected on the OS level. That would be awesome, however like you said.. It's still beta and with issues, not going to be using beta. I'll wait for the stable release first, hopefully not much longer?!? :P

This is crypted talk I'm seeing from you. You don't need the Ultimate box. If it worked for the standard GT1, it'll work for the Ultimate. My guess is, you've used the ' WORKAROUND ' that renders Netflix app useless.

I don't know what you mean by crypted talk. But anyways I have not used that method you talk about because I'm a big user of the Netflix app. So I don't use that method at all. I use Hulu and Netflix and what you're talking about would make them not work. I was just mentioning the ultimate box because I see a lot of people here complaining about this darkness issue as well. I would make my own custom ROM for this box if I had one that's all I'm saying. Asking any of my users of my ROM they will tell you that my ROM works with Netflix and Hulu and also I don't have a bootvideo enabled either. So this you mention is not it at all.
