S802/S812-Libreelec images for 7/8/9

    How do I install this to internal storage? I've SSH'ed in and tried the installtointernal command and got a permission denied notification.

    Am I doing something wrong?

    Download the .zip for your device extract and put the 2 files on sd or micro sd whichever your device takes. Try booting into recovery with card in device and it should start to install to internal.

    Probably he tried it with the aml_autoscript so now it is booting from SD as it sees a kernel.img. Try it with copying the unextracted zip to the sd-card and boot the device with the toothpick method with the SD-card in the SD slot.
    BTW, Did you login as root through ssh

    Thanks, will try that tonight. What would be the difference between having the unextracted files and the zip on the root anyway?

    I did login as root when I SSH'ed in.

    So an update on current state of S802:
    I consider RC4 release the final 8.0.0
    Since then i have move forwards to LE-8.0.1 bug fix release and i have no intention to recompile a final 8.0.0
    So next release will be based on 8.0.1.

    Hi,

    Great, so happy to have updates for my S802 devices.
    But I am quite puzzled.
    What version should I D/L to my:
    1. Minix X8
    2. Minix X8-H Plus

    Also are there any installation instructions?

    X8->S82 X8+ i think is S812 and not supported.

    How to install?

    Used the LE USB-SD Creator and yours S82 file.
    In the Minix pressed power+reset.
    It started some kind of process and immediately threw an error message.
    Something with "beyond repair".

    Am I doing something wrong?
    Do I need to create special boot dir or something?
    (I previously installed OE on the Minix).

    Update:
    I have changed the partition to 0x81 and then I was able to boot and load LE.
    I see the main screen but the remote doesn't work (Harmony 650).
    It seems something was changed or lost.
    Are you familiar with this issue?
    I am kinda of stuck now because I cant do anything with the device and menus....

    It seems obvious: when testing new firmware ALWAYS use the original remote. Using a harmony only adds another "uncertainty" in the chain. Also you can plug in a usb keyboard on your device to configure it, for example enable ssh.

    I dont have the original remote. What do you need it for if you have Harmony? ;)
    Is there a remote.conf or something that needs to be updated?
    By the way, the harmony is configured for Minix device and it worked on the Minix default OS and also when I switched to OE.
    Why it doesnt work on the LE?

    Hi demetris I was just wondering if there's a file I can edit that changes the led colour without having to compile an image?
    My box has a tricolour led, green, red and orange.
    At the min the led is green during boot but then changes to orange once LE has loaded.
    It's nothing major obviously I was just wondering lol

    Many thanks again

    Paul

    I have to patch your board file for this option and will then need test, so won't happen(I don't own your box) but if you can do it sent me a PR and I will accept it.

    I'm experiencing an issue when I turn on my TV and my X8 won't wake/resume and I need to physically push the power button for it to wake. Any ideas on how to resolve?

    Also what image should I be using with the USB-SD Creator to install Libreelec to internal storage? As I've tried installing to SD card then SSH'ing and entering installtointernal, but get a permission denied notification.

    Don't worry about it demetris as I do not want to add anymore to your workload, was just seeing if it's something I could of done locally myself

    Many thanks and all the best
