  • Please remove the seller link, you agreed to the forum rules!

    Use Libreelec 8 from here: thread-2156.html
    Write the img.gz file to a micro sd card with rufus (Rufus - Create bootable USB drives the easy way) or a similar image writer software.
    Replace dtb.img on the sd card with this file: gxl_p212_2g.dtb (rename to dtb.img)
    Place card in box, power on while pushing the reset switch and release switch when Libreelec logo appears.

    Thanks for your replay!

    Do I have to push the reset switch everytime I start the box for dual boot?


  • I dont get it...

    Is there a guide för installing LibreElec on the box mentioned above?

    The second link doesnt work ...

    Does it have a reset pin on the back of the box? If so insert your SD Card that you have setup from the instructions on this forum. Pull power plug , use a toothpick or something non conductive to push and hold the reset button in, then connect power while still holding reset. Do this until you see libreELEC logo and then release reset and let the box do its thing

  • It worked now, and WOW much better than I expected...

    I installed Kodi Jarvis and it's really fast and snappy, on a box that costed me 35 dollar!!

    Thanks to evryone, and special thanks to the developer!

    Really good work!


  • So 7 work better then 8 for you?

    I havent tried 8 om this device. But I have tried official 8 on wetek core and it works good, but I still use 7 on wetek core untill 8 comes at least in stable version.

  • Hi,
