I currently run LE off SD but was thinking of installing it on internal. But that means not being able to run the Minix android which has the netflix app I want.
I installed LE on my internal last week and now I'm back on my SD card because the speed difference was negligible and loosing Android was not worth it.
@kuroro20 If you go in the Plex for Kodi plugin settings, you will see a setting to enable h265. Make sure it is enabled. As for this build, you can simply drop the .tar (choose the correct one for your box) into the update folder in Libreelec.
Yup you're right of course sonofdibna , not trying to backpedal here but that was a typo on my part of course it is openPHT.
On another note, it's really too bad that the OP has abandoned this little project, it's been a long time since we've had any joy with this.
I still can't really use it because my remote is not functioning properly yet it functions fine in Libreelec so go figure. Anyways, I hope the OP comes back and keeps working on it.
Actually, I believe it's root/openelec
Display MoreHi All
With my minix I can't get the micro SD card work, I have a sandisk and lexar 300x but they don't work.
So I made it run with a USB but it's really not fast and responsive compare to my Chromebox.
So I make this, boot from USB, use internal memory for data this make some improvement on the library response.
After I try to installing to internal memory with installtointernal command every runs fine but after reboot libreELEC error and black screen.
What is/are my mistake?
Any idea about the micro SD cards ?
Is that not working because I use internal memory for data before trying to install to internal?
thanks in advance for your help.
It would be very helpful if you could put your hardware in your signature. Which Minix is it? U9? U1?
Folks,
The Kore (kodi remote) app from playstore works with Open PHT.
Apart from that I'd just like to comment that on a few occasions when I've booted up, it hasn't signed me in and won't allow me to sign in manually. Has anyone else experienced this and is there anything else that can be done other than reboot until it signs in and my libraries are detected?
Thanks in advance for any info on the above.
Don't know if it's the same for you but on mine I noticed that the auto sign-in to Plex in the Settings menu is greyed out. Wonder if it's by design or just a bug.
Hi there,
I´ve the same problem ( no reboot form internal ) in my S905x with the skin "Skin MOD - MOD AEON MQ7 KRYPTON", do you think this procedure will work for me ?!?!?!
I read below another solutions but I´m very noob and I hope I don´t have to try it because i´m afraid I´ll do something wrong !!!
Skin Settings, Configure shortcuts, Customize power menu, Add, Change Action, Custom item, then type in
System.ExecWait("/usr/sbin/rebootfromnand")
Then set label, call it whatever…”Reboot to Android”
Set Thumbnail, & select an icon or whatever you want.
I am not really, clear, is this just a client or a server also??
Client!
Have been looking at these boxes, but they seem overpriced for something running android 5.1. Do you mind me asking what puts them ahead of the rest? I must be missing something, from what i can see all it has over the rest is dual band wifi and gig wan?
The build quality (better wifi, bigger heat sink etc) also, you know the components inside are compatible and of good quality. Regular online updates...comes with a great wifi remote too.
I just want to thank you once again for putting this build together, as far as i know it's the only openPHT for Amlogic right now. Kudos!
I have a couple questions, maybe this will help others as well.
You do not state how to install the file, so I assume it's just like installing Libreelec.
Here is what I did:
Used the latest Libreelec device tree update for my box with your openPHT file. Burn it to my micro sd card and install. The install fails. Tried many times.
Then to try again I installed Libreelec (LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2-8.2.0.1.img)
fresh on a clean sd card. That worked and then I dropped your file (tar) into the updates folder and restart.
Now openPHT is running and configured. Problem, the volume down on my remote doesn't respond.
Question? Is this the only way to install openPHT? Did I do it correctly?
Thanks!
Has anybody installed it yet? I'm using a wireless remote, Minix A2 lite and it always works just right but in this case my volume down button does not respond, I have never seen this before with this remote. Could it be a problem with the build? It works great with the latest Libreelec, all my buttons work.
So far, I have been unsuccessful at replacing the remote.conf file since I don't know how to create it without using Kodi and key map add on.
Any help would be appreciated.
it is bad remote controll config you can replace it
Is this the location?
"/storage/.config/remote.conf"
Just installed it over the latest Libreelec update using your tar file and it works very well, I could see myself using this since all I use is Plex. Just one thing, my remote control is not controlling my volume yet it always works in libreelec . Any workarounds?
Thanks for sharing this!
Working very well here, thanks again for the great work! 
I booted to internal from the Libreelec Kodi running on the sd card to test out a few things on the Android version.
Now I am stunk booting to Android and can not for the life of me get the box to boot from the sd card again and run Libreelec. What is the trick?
If I browse to the sd card in android, I see Libreelec there, wish I could "click a .bat file" there or something to get back on track
How do I set it to boot from the sd card again?
Its a Beglink G1 Ultimate if that matters.
This has worked for me in the past : details?id=me.thomastv.rebootupdate&hl=en
Hi All
I have managed to run LibreELec from a USB drive on my Minix U1, but every time I try to run it from my Toshiba mSD card I get the Android screen with the green robot and the red exclamation mark, a list of options on the left like power down, reboot, etc.
I've tried to read through the thread, but am not sure what can be done...To be honest I'm not very experienced so am not sure where to begin.
Does this mean the mSD card isn't being read at all (the mSD slot on the Minix is poorly designed) or that this card has a problem...It's a brand new card with exactly the same device tree, image as the USB.
How should I solve this?
Check out this thread...
Even the wifi works?
yes!
