How to load LibreElec on Mecool (Videostrong) VS-RK3399

  • Hello colleagues,

    i'm trying to load the LibreElec firmware onto my VS_RK3399, but the upgrade_tool uf LibreELEC-RK3399.arm-9.1.002-sapphire.img command fails:

    Code
    ./upgrade_tool uf LibreELEC-RK3399.arm-9.1.002-sapphire.img

    The output is:

    Code
    Program Data in /root/.config/upgrade_tool
    Loading firmware...
    Loading firmware failed!

    And that's it.

    The board is in recovery mode and is also recognized by the upgrade_tool:

    Code
    root@Hades:/opt/dev_boards/rk3399/linux/rkbin/tools# ./upgrade_tool LD
    Program Data in /root/.config/upgrade_tool
    List of rockusb connected(1)
    DevNo=1 Vid=0x2207,Pid=0x330c,LocationID=10105  Mode=Loader
    root@Hades:/opt/dev_boards/rk3399/linux/rkbin/tools# 

    Any ideas?

    Many thanks!

  • How do you want to use an Android flash tool to write LibreELEC to EMMC?

    You write LibreELEC with etcher to a micro-sd card.

    I'm not aware of any compatible LibreELEC image for VS-RK3399.
