OK, I formatted the SD card, then I used the downloaded .img.gz from 20170801, extracted the .img file and then burned that to the SD card. I did not remove or add any files to the card. Then I put the SD card into the box, used the toothpick method and nothing happened after 60 seconds. When I removed the toothpick the GoogleTV image comes up, then disappears after maybe 10 seconds and the 120 second/ automatic repair message appears on the top left of the box.

When I remove the card and boot the box goes into Android successfully.

I have attached a snip of the files that are on the card.

Note that I did use the update&backup app to install the aml_autoscript files prior to trying your method.

Thanks for your help.

Try a USB stick as every time i get the 120 seconds message it will only work on USB and not SD card

balbes150 The (20170609) for MinIX does boot USB OK but No from SD card

Added a test image Minix\20170609.

I have just tested Minix\20170609 it will not boot from SD card says filesystem corruption has been detected

it was the same if i tried update TAR but it does boot from USB

LAN works BT works but Wifi connects but does not work

if i just connect to Wifi and remove Ethernet and reboot it starts back up but can't select anything from menu

Thanks for your efforts again

Added another test image (Minix\20170607).

The chances of this working, not much, but try this option. It uses the dtb from the new Minix firmware 5.1.

balbes150 You are correct (Minix\20170607) did not work i tried tar and img.gz

after reboot nothing wont boot to LibreELEC at all

thanks for trying

balbes150 The update tar (Minix\20170606) booted

I went into LibreELEC settings no Wifi option in Network only wired BT as now stopped working

line of script under LibreELEC (community) - version: 17.3 says

[FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.

See systemct status systemd-modules-load.service for details

Thanks again for your efforts

put the update tar from (20170605) working fine again BT working no Wifi must keep Wifi switched off otherwise box freeze

Thank you for the test. This is a useful infa. You can run multiple commands through the SSH connection ?

balbes150 Yes just tried in terminal on Linux worked ok

Thanks again for your efforts in getting things working

Quote from Arcee

mark2 that's really strange- I'm using the 20170605 build indeed, I have even reinstalled it.

BT is switched on, but when going to the Bluetooth tab in Settings, "No Bluetooth adapter found".

No LAN, no Wi-Fi, which is why I'm now using the MKIII_Plus build of 20170605 which works smooth and with fast LAN at least and otherwise works smoothly.

It is strange that BT is working on your Minix, because both BT and Wi-Fi are on the same AP6335/BCM4339.

Arcee Yes this is a strange one as we both have same boxes you can try this

Make sure Wifi turned off in LibreElec settings reboot box then try BT also connect LAN

IF it crashes or freezes pull power cord then restart

I have also had LibreElec settings not ready yet all problems from Wifi switched on

Do I understand correctly that the image version Minix 20170605 in the list set visible and available WiFi hotspot ? If you try to connect to Wi-Fi TV box hangs ? You can connect to the LE via SSH and run multiple commands ?

To All

Pay attention - check to run when you run "clean" system (when running from external media). If you try to run through the upgrade of an existing system, very often the old settings interfere to determine exactly where the error is.

balbes150 Yes that is correct Minix image 20170605 when I switch Wifi on it finds my connection

It also finds other connections nearby but when I select connect it does say ready it does not say online

I just tried again selected wifi and connect rebooted with Ethernet disconnected

It won't reboot past the Kodi v17.3 screen just freezes

I then pull power cord insert Ethernet cable reboot fine and runs fine until I go in settings

Also after restarting I went in LibreElec settings to turn off wifi then the box freeze

I've just tried your Minix test build on my Minix X8-H Plus.

Bad news:

- Upon boot-up, when Kodi interface comes up, turning circles on previously played movies and music

- Going to Settings - LibreELEC I get an error message "Settings menu not available, please try again later"

- After a few minutes, I can get to the LibreELEC settings menu. The Wi-Fi option is back, but turning it off and on, I cannot get it to work

- LAN doesn't work, no network

- Wi-Fi doesn't work

- Bluetooth doesn't work

I'm sorry not to be able to agree with Mark2 that we're getting closer - it works less well than the LAN1000 version.

@Acree The version i used was (20170605) MKIII_Plus tar file which is the same as you no Wifi Lan works BT works

I then done a clean install of the (20170605) Minix X8H-Plus No Wifi Lan works as it should

BT works as i connected my Logitech keyboard and used it also after reboot still working

do you have your Minix antenna attached and have you switched on BT in LibreELEC settings

" I'm sorry not to be able to agree with Mark2 that we're getting closer - it works less well than the LAN1000 version"

I think you must be talking about the (20170604) builds as they don't work

Added test image for Minix H8 Plus. There is only one change - applied the patch on the dtb. Surprisingly this version also works with WiFi and BT on my Tronsmart MXIII Plus. Please, Minix H8 plus check for this option (catalogue MinixH8XPlus\20170605).

I have done a clean install of this on Minix X8H-Plus BT works Wifi doesn't work

as soon as you try Wifi it freezes the box have to pull power cord to reboot

on restart BT won't work until you switch off Wifi as soon as Wifi switched off BT works

so in conclusion besides Wifi not working everything else just works great

Thanks again balbes150 for trying to make this work

Quote from balbes150

I changed the settings and the files for WiFi and BT. Please to those who use image version MXIII_Plus to check the work WiFi and BT. I'm interested in the changes in their work (running or not). The image in the directory 20170605.

balbes150

I just tried this update on Minix X8H-Plus you are getting closer with this as now BT Works

after a few restarts BT is still working so thank you for your work for getting this working

as for wifi is says connected but it doesn't work

thanks for trying much appreciated

Quote from balbes150

The test version for H8X_plus.

Yandex.Disk

Have you tried the option LAN100 ?

balbes150

I just tried your test version for Minix x8h- plus boots ok

In LibreElec network settings there's only wired network option

There is no option to turn on wireless network whatsoever

Thanks for your attempts to get this to work

balbes150

You are correct when running MXIII_plus on Minix X8H- plus wired network works fine

As does sound and video .BT does not work Wifi does not work

Same with LAN 1000 no wifi no BT not working

Quote from balbes150

Write what steps you did to activate the multi-boot.

n200 and n200C a different platform

Then it turns out You module 4339 this WIFI module AP6335 (bcm4339) ?

Yes wifi module AP6335 >bcm4339

Hi
New to the forum been following the thread great work by the way to all Devs
I don't know if this will help on the wifi problem with Minix X8H-Plus
i opened system folders and the Minix bcm is showing as bcm 4339 not 4335
