For managing separate applications you can choose Supersu instalation. Activate Root access you can: Settings – Ugoos settings – System – Root.
File (Samba) Server
File server allows sharing files among different OS devices in local network. This feature was one of the most popular functions on Ugoos boxes based on Android 4.4. and 5.1 based on RockChip SoC and Amlogic s905 SoC. Now it comes to AM3 device. Root from the box is available since last firmware in Settings – Ugoos settings – System.
Hardware Monitor
Hardware performance visualization is a useful feature if you prefer to control performance and speed of your device. Now you can control your Box hardware performance more effectively. We added ability to place animated graphic icons in the upper bar, which can show real time main hardware values:

– CPU temperature
– CPU speed
– Free/All RAM
You also can choose to show text values or just animated graphics statistics in upper bar or exclude all of them.
