[S812] MIII Plus 2Gb\16Gb eMMC

Hi balbes150, Thanks again for making these builds available. Any plans for a new build before the end of the year? With holidays upcoming it certainly understandable if you have more important things to do.

There are two options for multi-boot s812. The "old" version can only run LE. The "new" (universal) version of the tool multi that able to run any images of the LE and Linux. I think You have activated the "old" version. To work my images need re-activate the "new" version of multi-boot.

How activate the "new" version of multi-boot...

I burn image to SD card and use toothpick method, LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000.arm-7.0.2.6_20161130.img.xz and copied s805_autoscript, the SDcard boot correctly, I see logo Libreelec, but stop with error: SH: can't access tty: job control turned off. What means?

I've installed on SDCard this:
LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000.arm-8.0.0_20161206.img.gz
and works, it's time...
Now trie to config.
Thanks for all

I found a bug in Kripton version, passthrough in HDMI (Yamaha 393) the volume is very, very low... In PCM the volume is OK, but if I set passthrough is few audible.

Have you tried to run the existing images from the media in multi-boot mode ?

Hello Balbes 150,
This AlexELEC version is working on my m8s+ box....I run from SD CARD but it is older version.I need new version libreelec from you with kodi 17...Can you try build libreelec for my box ?Thanks!
I try every your images but always it show pictures libreelec and show messages error: something like cant find FLASH/SISTEM ,job done...I think you need correct dbt and kernel to start libreelec on my S812 m8s+ box....Maybe you can extract from this AlexELEC version...

Hi. I have an MXIII-G box and previously had the Wilro build of OE with multiboot installed.
I have burned the image "LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000.arm-7.0.2.6_20161130" to an SD card and can boot as far as the LE logo, but no further.
The wired interface is up and I have ports 111 and 445 open.
Looking in \logfiles\01_KODI.log there are some ERROR entries:-
ERROR: DBus: Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.freedesktop.UPower was not provided by any .service files
ERROR: SQL: [Addons20.db] SQL error or missing database
Does anyone have any suggestions for booting past the LE logo into Kodi? Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I not speak English, I don't understand the question, what You want to do ?

Sorry for the late response, got caught up in something.

Anyway, I tried replacing the dtb from KERNEL myself using mkbootimg (which works) but I see that you have already included the Amlogic Multi-DTB files in your latest builds.

Tried the S812.LAN1000 builds and they work great! While LAN works 100%, Bluetooth is not recognized and the device tends to hang when using WiFi. In the 7.0.2 build, the device eventually hangs, in 8.0.0, network requests fail and the device hangs when a reboot is attempted.
I've checked the WiFi chipset, it's the AP6335 Wireless module.

This error is usually not associated with dtb.
Perhaps bad media. You upgraded-boot to the latest version ?

Activate the new multiboot. Older versions multiboot cannot work with new images (which use the script s905_autoscript

Where can I found new boot script for S812 android box?

Thanks Balbes150. I have tried the toothpick method (as described in posts 11 and 13), the Google TV image appears, then the box reboots and this continues in a loop. Do I need to remove any files from the original image or should it just work as it is?

I have also found I can reach the Android recovery screen if I eject the sd card and use toothpick.
I have tried copying the files onto a usb drive, choosing "apply update from EXT", "update from udisk" , selecting "aml_autoscript.zip", but when it verifies the update package it fails with "E: footer is wrong" and "E: signature verification failed".

Have you tried the version from this directory ?

Still no Bluetooth, the WiFi works for a bit then stops working (not network activity) like in the 8.0.0 build. It sometimes causes freezes when rebooting but at least it didn't cause the entire device to hang.
