Many budget H313 boxes ship with hidden trackers or pre-installed adware. Custom ROMs strip all unnecessary apps, leaving only core Android TV services.
Open the box and look at the PCB.

An additional, significant barrier is the growing prevalence of "Secure Boot" on these budget TV boxes. Manufacturers are enabling security features in the firmware that reject any operating system or bootloader not signed with the manufacturer's own cryptographic key. This prevents the device from booting any custom ROM or a Linux image from an SD card. If your device has secure boot enabled, your chances of running anything other than the original firmware drop dramatically.
This is caused by a driver mismatch. You have flashed a ROM intended for a different Wi-Fi chip revision. Open your TV box case to read the physical text printed on the small Wi-Fi square module, then download the specific version of the ROM matching that chip identifier. 3.
