Hallo
i buy S905 device with processor S905 . Only one in my country was NEXBOX A95X variant 1GB RAM with that processor, next one with 2GB is S905X , this is not the same ! have another chipset ! now speak my experiences after three days of use.
Primary system Android TV BOX is bad with some bugs , i send it out to factory reset with wipe data and then pin device by thin object in hole plus make reset. This way is possible to start lakka retroarch installed on >
*- microsd card up to 64GB space = lakka retroarch , partition system & partition data
*- usb flash disk up to 128GB space = lakka retroarch , again two partitions
*- usb external harddisk my was 1 TB = lakka retroarch, system and storage
after pin method and reset , external storage device is set to primary
*- microsd is permanent this mean every next boot start to microsd lakka retroarch
*- usb flash disk - procedure with thin pin object to hole must be repeated !
*- usb external hdd - procedure with thin pin object to hole must be repeated ! *bad
now how to install , write with writer program or command line in linux , image of lakka S905 version , write it to microsd card , then easy boot it , next boot everytime lakka retroarch blue xmb menu instead of Android TV BOX what is show again only if card is out
*- open extended options
*- disable remove items
*- some configurations
*- now playlist and cores , games
i have functional tested next list of cores and games >

Device S905 is good choice for device , another use computer
less = Raspberry , only 8bits 16bits and less , 1Ghz processors
better = Wetek Play, 1.5Ghz processors ,
better is S802 , S905 processor , up to 2Ghz quad core , look care to version type model S905 exactly
best choice is computer , there run next gen Nintendo 64 , Saturn , Playstation 1 , and modern dream
if you search for device , try gamepad Speed Link Wireless not PS3 beacoz cable need , XBOX360 better
Speed Link Wireless and S905 , good price , with microcard only 3000CZK
in package with S905 A95X NEXBOX was HDMI cable++ and power supply++
raspberry pi 3 have all this separate
*-
S905 with wireless Speed Link controller , hdmi cable , power supply , microcard 32/64 GB = 3000 CZK
games , DOS, ATARI, fullcomplete MAME 2003 2010 , NES , SNES , SEGA 8bit , 16bit not at this moment ,
next gen not at this moment N64, Saturn, PS1, handheld not tested , boot everytime lakka microcard ,
card easy remove or plug back by click and change games in computer to lakka partition ext4 linux
wishlist , repair SEGA 16bit soon and add N64,Saturn,PS1 to function on S905 beacoz S905 is only choice of device for retroarch
