Just to clarify I’m trying to get it working on a TX9 Pro box.

Well read my post #336 on this thread which will link you to The Coolests post #126 on Page 7. Yes it will be possible as I have my later Tanix TX9 Pro S912 box working fine with the front panel display which before also just showed "boot". So get the files that The Coolest page 7 post links to, and follow the instructions. You will have to replace your device tree file with the equivalent replacement one which is modified for the vfd driver. When you set it up you will likely get a Permissions error which will require changing the linux file attributes on the main FD628Service file, but this is an easy ssh chmod 777 <file name> command into your box. I can help you with that too if needed now that I am aware of how it all works.

Hi Ray,

Im trying to get this working on my TX9 box.

Im on LibreELEC-S912.arm-8.2.5-Chroma.422.10bit.img

I used the gxm_q200_3g.dtb from the Oclock-GPU-new-device-trees-S912-levfd link posted in #126.

I also used the vorke-z6-vfd.conf as suggested.

I have the display working but the time is upside down.

Im wondering if the vfd.conf is the correct one. Maye you could post your .dtb and .conf files for me.

Thanks

I know what I’m doing as well. I have been flashing boxes for many years. This is the first box that has given me issues and I can say that now it is back to android the issue with the freezing is still there on android. So the issue was not with me flashing to internal.

No sooner than I wrote this I found a guide that solved the issue with my computer constantly disconnecting.

What I didn't know was that the box had to be in recovery mode. To do this I used the most common method which was this:

Use a USB-C M-M both ends and put it in the USB PORT (can't remember which one, only 1 works)

Use a pin to hold the reset button in.

Push the other USB end into your computer with USB burning tool running.

Hold button in for 10 seconds.

Device should now show up and burn as normal.

How to use the Amlogic USB Burning Tool to manually update firmware

Hi all,

I flashed My Vorke Z6 Plus S912 to internal memory. Im now having issues with it freezing on the VORKE logo or the LibreELEC logo. Sometimes it boots fine. I was wanting to get it back to Android and see how it runs.

Ive tried different versions of LE but all versions seem to behave the same.

I tried to connect it to USB Burning tool on 2 separate computers and it flashes up connected then disconnects right away.

I also tried the SD card method but the box would not boot.

Can anyone give me any suggestions on what to try or where to seek help.

Thanks

Hi there,

Quick question about the CEC Adapter settings.

I’m running LE 8.2.2.3 on s912 box. I can control most functions with my tv remote. I am hovever unable to do a long OK to bring up the context menu. Can someone tell me what setting needs to be enabled for this?

Thanks

Try here:-

Test LibreELEC images with KODI-18 for S9xxx

These S905 images will also work for S905x, S905d and S905w boxes I believe.

Thanks

Does anyone have a remote file for MXQ Pro 4K please ??

Are there any Leia builds for the s905x boxes then? I couldn’t find any.

Im looking to install the coreELEC beta version of Leia from Releases · CoreELEC/CoreELEC · GitHub but can't find the device trees. Any idea if they are needed or where they are located please?

TX5 came out with 2 different wifi modules

WiFi/BT Module: 6255

WiFi/BT Module: 9377

Tx7

WiFi/BT Module: 6255

TX7 Nougat Android has a working adjust refresh rate using SPMC Jarvis and SPMC Development Krypton.

Using official Kodi Krypton it does not work. It's a mess.

Thanks kostaman. Do you know if both wifi modules are working with LE? Also is the TX5 the same as the TX5 Pro?

Thanks

Does anyone know if there are any differences between the TX7 and the TX5? As far as I can see all the specs apart from size are the same. The TX& does have an external antenna as well. Do they use the same wifi chip? Will the TX5 wifi be supported?

Hi there,

Can anyone recommend a 3 gb box that the wifi and remote work on. Im looking to buy another box.

Thanks.

Im Trying to flash LibreELEC onto an m8s box but for the life of me I can't find the correct image link to use.

Anyone else done it??

Thanks

Hi All,

Having an issue getting this version to boot from USB. I downloaded LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.90.2.img.gz and used the LE installer program to write it to USB the way I normally do. I did notice there was no default dtb.img file on the usb. I would normally over write this file anyway with gxl_p212_2g.dtb

I tried the following device trees:

gxl_p212_2g.dtb

gxl_p212_2g.dtb

and none seem to get the usb to boot.

Ive done this many times before without an issue but for some reason I cant get this one to boot.

Any ideas anyone??

Yes it's enabled thanks.

I can't seem to SSH into the box anymore. I can see the device and it is connected.

I am able to ssh into my s905X box though.

I get a "Network Error, Connection Refused" message.

Hi there,

Im using the latest build 8.2.1.1 on MXQ metal Case S805. For a while now, I think since Krypton builds my wired LAN toggles off most reboots and I have to manually toggle it back on.

I have tried both builds relevant to my box.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks
