TVplus Go on Windows 10 PC
Part 2 of TVplus Go on Laptop
Using VirtualBox running Android-x86 guest OS on a Windows 10 PC.
Guides:
1. Android-x86 via VirtualBox
2. Adjust screen resolution. TVplusgo app runs better on 16:9 resolutions (e.g. 1280x720).
3. Enable native bridge (ARM translation layer)
4. Disable root or hide root via Magisk (note: install only v1.0.28 or older of the TVplusgo app).
5. VirtualBox USB pass-through (the official android emulator for Windows, or the Qemu itself, currently does not support USB pass-through).

TVplus Go Teardown
Teardown of ABS-CBN TVplus Go USB dongle. This dongle looks like ADTH DGI 1011 (*although the PCB indicates "DGI1012_RevD" instead).
dmesg log when plugged:
The USB chip has a marking of "Tolka101" - most probably developed by Tolka Taiwan Inc. - same company who develops the tvplus go app (?). Beside this chip looks like an external EEPROM chip. (*there are no markings on the RF frontend chip).
For simple modification, I replaced the micro-USB connector with an "older" (but more reliable) type-A USB connector+cable - more suitable since I'm using the dongle on laptop or PC more often than my android phone.
