I can get it to install and run from microSD on my MXIII-G however I'm unsure how to install to internal NAND? I've read that there is an option to install to NAND in the shutdown menu of LibreElec but there is no such option in my build.

Any advice how to install to internal memory? Would be nice to free up micoSD card and maybe a small speed improvement also.

I'm running the LibreELEC-S8X2.arm-8.2.RC3-MXIII-PLUS build.

Thanks

You have to flash a "zip" file from recovery (start your MXIII-G with the toothpick).

I'have used LibreELEC-S8X2.default.arm-7.0-devel-20170124000114-r23703-ge207b78.zip, extracted the file LibreELEC-S8X2.default.arm-7.0-devel-update.zip it has inside and flashed it. Then you can upgrade using the "tar" files simply putting them in the update folder.

I insist, I also have an MXIII-G but with Kodi 17 never working the dts sound, I only take an Dolby digital sound. Do I have something wrong? Why everyone working dts and me not working ?? I notice that I use the mxiii plus version of 8.2.rc3

I have a MXIII-G too, for me DTS works using passthrough via the SPDIF cable. It does not work with HDMI.

I did get this to work by SDcard and am running 8.2rc1 on my MXIII-G 2g/8g.

I decided to reload LE 7.0.1c from Wilro's post on Freaktab - it worked well for me in the past):

[ROM] Unofficial OpenELEC for MXIII-G & Tronsmart MXIII+ - FreakTab.com
I used the old method as described in the post second section- toothpick install to enable sdboot.

1- Download "Enable SD card dual boot" zip file, extract & copy files to sdcard/thumb drive (I used sdcard) - OpenELEC-MX3G.arm-DualBootSD.zip
2. "Toothpick" boot your device into (original) recovery mode (took~30 seconds), select install ZIP from EXT & select "OpenELEC-MX3G.arm-DualBootSD.zip" Note that there was an error on the bottom line of the zip screen - E:/misc - I didn't write it down. It had no effect on the process.
After the zip ran I formatted the sdcard with SDformatter v 5.0. Then burned the ROM image to the sdcard:

1. Download Libreelec - see post on page 476 page 32 - I used the 7.0.1c link and downloaded this image -

LibreELEC-MX3G.arm-7.0.1c.img.xz
2. Unpack the image to your hard drive and then burn it to SD card - I used Win32diskimager
3. Insert SDCard in box & boot your device - I pulled the plug before I inserted the sdcard (no toothpick needed) - This will take a while as it prepares the sdcard & installs the system for the first time - It will reboot when finished.

4. As soon as Kodi loaded up I ssh'd into the box and put the Demitris update file along with the remote.conf and .nocompat.zip file into the update file and rebooted via putty.

LE 17.4 loaded and has been running for some time with no obvious problems. I have rebooted a bunch of times and have had no problems.

Hope this helps. You have certainly provided a lot of help to other users including me on other LE forms.

Thanks kostaman and thanks to wi

You might want to try it in USB (try all ports). Write a new version to SD and do the toothpick thing then reboot but don't let it do the file-check thing, which it seems to do because its not correctly set up to boot from SD for this particular box. Then reboot with it in USB (if you have a USB card-reader). Try all ports. Mine only works on one USB I'

I've tried every usb port, but it starts boot only from SD. I tried now Openelec and it boot correctly from SD.

Thanks

Hello everyone.

I have a MX III 2G (I think).

I've tried many images but I can't succeed to end a boot.

I have flashed the dualboot zip file successfully. It tries to boot from sd but or I have a blank screen or, with latest RC 2 , I have a message of corrupted fs:

Corrupt System/Repair Failed (and fails the check).

Any idea?

Can you confirm which is the correct image for my device?
