Switch from OpenElec to LibreElec

I'm new to this and still learning. Im trying to switch from OpenElec to LibreElec on my Android W9 box and it's not letting me. I have downloaded LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.2.5.tar to my SD card but it's not going through for some reason when I boot my box.

Ohh...I think for android you have to use the android version..that one you use is for HTPC!

check this link again for your HW compatible

Download LE new link

Don't forget to install the file as bootable by using LE USB-SD creator and can download it from the link as well.

There has never been an OpenELEC build (officially anyways) specifically for an Android environment.

So I'm not sure where you're coming from. Which 'W9' box are you referring to?

Also, using a LibreELEC Generic build, which is meant for a full blown x86-64 Intel/AMD PC, is not a good idea.
