Here, most likely, OS "Android TV" and not the usual Android.
In the latest versions of the firmware in Mikula exactly.
You can distinguish it by a different version of PlayMarket (another interface).
If you put on top of the usual PlayMarket from the APK (for the usual Android), then it will not work.
The composition of the available applications in the "PlayMarket" is partially different for the usual Android and for "Android TV".

here you need to specify the firmware version.
because in different MECOOL models they changed the OS to "Android TV" starting with the firmware of such versions:
- "MECOOL M8S PRO W" - from firmware: no data yet
- "MECOOL M8S PRO +" - with firmware: 20170919
- "MECOOL M8S PRO L" - with firmware: 20170918
- "MECOOL M8S PRO" - with firmware: 20171030

In order to disassemble the console, it is necessary to remove the rubber feet and unscrew the four screws.

Wifi in the Mecool M8S Pro W is extremely sad.
The response in online applications is very long. For example, in YouTube from the moment a video is selected, it takes 2-4 seconds to launch it, and this is when the router is less than a meter away. In the next room, the console generally periodically loses the network. I started the cartoon to the child and moved the console three times until the cliffs stopped. Sometimes the connection may disappear on the road from turning on Wifi before starting YouTube. In the very best position, the speed is about a third lower than that of the Tx3 mini. Interestingly, the TX3 mini with a restored backup from Mecool M8S Pro W behaves normally, which means the problem with the Mecool M8S Pro W is the implementation of Wifi antennas. In TX3 mini, instead of the "film", a dipole.

OK. This suggests wifi antenna optimization is inevitable.
And how this box is organized cooling. The photo of the radiator is small.
What are the temperature conditions in the load and without.

When viewing HDVidebox temperature 64gr. cpu 50%.
TTV 68 degrees cpu 75%.
Browser and Youtube 1080r 72 degrees. cpu 95%.
Temperatures in peak, such as constant switching and loading pages in the browser, On YouTube, switching between videos, etc. In statics, when watching a video, the temperature is about 65 degrees with 15-30% CPU load.
The maximum temperature was 78 grgrad. But boxing stood in tight MDF niche day.
After he pulled him out of the niche, the temperature dropped by 10 degrees. in 5 minutes

In order for the third-party launcher to start immediately when the system starts, you must freeze the stock launcher, or delete its VSlauncher2 folder on the sistem / app / path.
But before deleting, make sure that you are completely satisfied with the work of the new.

WiFi A couple of times a day stably falls off Mikrotik.
I'm not sure that the reason is in the antenna, the router is nearby.

4k from YouTube turns a couple of minutes, and is overloaded.
It seems to overheat.
Tomorrow I'll try to look at the flash drive.

TWRP c SD is loaded without problems through the stock recovery, backups do.

In your case, maybe overheating. I even with the "cold" inclusion of the console connection falls off before reaching YouTube. In those moments when there is a connection, its level is lower than the same Tx3 mini with the same wireless module on the Mikula firmware. So the problem with the antenna is still there.

solder the connector from the Wi-Fi router / adapter
Solder it at least that you can, then the question of aesthetics. Inset connector for external antennas is complicated by the fact that the walls of the case not occupied by connectors have vertical ventilation slots, and any change will look like a collective farm, the only non-perforated surface is the top cover, but the same visible surface.

The antenna can be placed inside the case. If you disassemble the standard 2.4 GHz antenna, then it is quite small.
Or you can stick the antenna inside the case from the laptop.
