I'm wondering if this is related to my own issues with trying to get a particular Bluetooth LE remote working with my Odroid C2. It registers as a keyboard and works as expected in the Raspberry PI version of LibreELEC, as well as C2 builds of Android and Ubuntu (which AFAIK, use the same 3.14 kernel as LE). Just, for some odd reason, not in any of the C2 builds of LibreELEC. It pairs, but all button presses are ignored (and not even registered in logs). I wholly believe there's something going on in LE that's interfering.

I too believe its more then just Amlogic Kernel issues, considering Android has no issues whatsoever.

3.10 kernel works with my controllers just fine.

Bluetooth driver is not starting correctly. Checked Lakka directly for s905/x and its not loading correctly. I am still confused on how Amlogic kernel is actually the issue since Android has no issues what so ever.

Where is all of the nand install files. Thank you

Thanks for letting me know. That is odd. No way to port bluetooth modules over? Ill have a look. Works just fine in Android.

Still playing around with no luck. USB controllers working fine. Just not bluetooth.

Thanks for the reply, I have tried that and it counts down to press a button and does not pick it up with bluetooth

Hello everyone,

I am reaching out looking for some advice, I have tried a few ipega, Terios T3, and a few other generic bluetooth controllers, When prompted to set a new controller up it does not see any of the buttons I am pressing in the versions of 17.1 Libreelec .img files or emmc installs. I am at a loss on how to get it to see and correctly see the controller, I can however use mouse mode on the controller which is odd. I am a gaming nut, and love RetroArch within LibreElec, On my MXq it would see the USB and I could map buttons etc. With Bluetooth i can not do the same. Any ideas? Thank you in advance for the replys!

This is not a device tree issue. I'm sorry, I can't help you with retroarch, I don't know how it works.

Thank you for the response. I am confused on why it worked via EMMC on s805 MXq but not on SD running on s905x. Its really odd. Ill do some more research. Thanks again for the reply

Hi kszaq,

Been Pulling my hair out. On MXq emmc install of version 7x I can connect bluetooth and run games in retroarch no issues. When trying on SD Card for s905 or s905x the bluetooth controllers are not picked up in retroarch. There is bluetooth and in LibreELEC I can connect, I still can not get it working, When replacing dtb.img device will not boot, when using another it will boot but not pick up usb devices connected, I tried also the dtb.img from my firmware and it would not boot. Is this dtb.img related. Thank you.

Thanks mmpp, I am confused why it works with everything but on LE, just tested 4 different bluetooth controllers with no luck at all. Odd

Any advice on getting bluetooth controllers connected in retroarch? LibreElec connects just fine, But i can only move around in a small square on the top left corner. Does not navigate in LE, I open Retroarch/Jokerzbox and it does not even show my gamepad. Some advice would be great. Thanks again

I have a few bluetooth controllers. I pair in LibreElec, I go into Jokerzbox retroarch port and I can not even get the controller to register, Does anyone have any ideas on what I could be missing or doing wrong? I have no issues with connecting them on PC, Android, OSX etc. Any ideas would be great. Thank you all very much

Same with Mini USB keyboards, plug usb in, mouse will work but keyboard will not. Thanks again for the awesome work. I should state I am using the latest Krypton 8.0.0c I think it was no sensors

Great work Kszaq as normal. Thanks for all the updates. Excited to test it out. Thank you again.

Try below links from people who know lcd control and they are opensource people.
I cant help you with this but do let everyone know how you went.
Good luck.

Thank you very much, will take a look. Its a tough thing on these boxes since all are different it seems. Thank you again. I will post regardless so people know. Thanks for your time

I agree with you on that 100%

Thank you to everyone, kszaq has been amazing with everything here.

I do understand the frustration, I know how many clones I personally encountered with MXq boxes and its rediculas. I really have not seen anyone get an Android box LCD to work, that is why I wondered if anyone had on anthing. I know its a ton of work and I would never actually expect it or even ask the developers to do it. If anyone ever gets any displays working let me know. I know one person that got it all working on the M10 but will not share as he is in sales - *** URL Removed *** he has it all working on Openelec but would not share the info, I thought about just buying another box to figure it all out for the community, that is the last resort I guess as I already have a wack load of boxes. Thank you again

Duplicating the same issue in this forum again and again is not going to solve it for you. #394
Your boxes have LCD displays which are activated via the code written in your Chinese Android Firmware.
What makes the Displays work will be governed by the Firmware. You have 3 different boxes and dont think the Android Firmware
will be the same for all of them.
We have had enough trouble with the Blue Light / Red light (all black MXQ's)coming on staying on etc due to different boards, U-Boot , Device Tree on Factory Android Firmware.
You may just have to live with it.
My advice is dont touch anything with LCD screens unless you can deal with Linux Builds not showing Displays properly.
Good luck with it.

Thanks for the reply, I was not being rude asking for help, thanks for showing what post number I posted before, that helps. I was asking for advice from anyone that knew anything about lcd, in my original post I did not ask for possibly a generic lcd.conf I was not sure if anyone had a working LCD.conf for any sort of android box I could look at. Ill look into the Android firmware again as I did before asking to see if I missed anything. Once I figure it out I will post in so it can help others. Just like I posted all my custom roms over at MBox forums.... Thanks again for the help

Been searching high and low with not a lot of luck. Is there a generic LCD.conf used for android boxes with LibreElec, I Have a T8 Plus, World TiVi s805 like an mxq, and an M10 all with displays, I can not get any to work. Any advice would be great.

Thank you
