I'm having trouble with the flashing of libreelec.

I have updated the Lollipop firmware okay. "Burned" the libreelec image above for the h-plus version - renamed the file to boot.scr and press and hold recover + power on.

I have tried 4 different SD cards of many brands (because it can be picky I think I read?)

But every time all it does is take me to the android recovery menu (where I can update from SD/usb but it wont accept .img files).

do you have the receiver for the Neo A2/3 remote plugged in ? If yes, unplug it before switching on your Minix. For me that does the trick (btw, on every boot not just when flashing)

thx !

hi,

for the U1, is the 9.0 image (18.0) the latest one available ?

Thank you for all your work !!!

On my U1 I am currently on [8.2.3.1] LibreELEC 8.2 for S905/S905X - kszaq build. Can I update using the tar version or do I need to install from scratch ?

Thank you darth !!!

I am currently on RC4, how do I go about updating to RC5.2 ? Do I need to do a complete re-install or just replace some files on my SD-Card / USB stick, if the latter, which ones ?

Hello jak455

I also have try it to install Libreelec on my Minix 8h-Plus. (mine is under Lollipop android)-and didn't work. See here

After you post it I try it with the USB stick and take out from Minix the A2 remote usb, same result -not working.

Can you tell us which version of Android you have on your X8-Hplus? is it KItkat with the last firmware (011) or the 5.1 lollipop released by Ken from Minix?

Also, could you please detail the steps of your installation? cause the Libreelec kodi (17.6 doesn't contained the very important file described in the first post of this thread : boot_autoscript

Thank you

Hi Macko,

My X8P is on KitKat, latest official fw available (I never went with the beta lollipop).

I am using a USB3.0 stick (SanDisk Ultra). I put the 18 RC4 version onto it using the LE tool, changed the name of the boot file, unplugged the remote dongle and power, plugged in the usb stick, pressed/held the reset button, plugged in power, pressed/held power button for 5 sec, released power and thereafter released reset button -> LE screen came up and all went automatic from there. Had to repeat this 2-3x as the minix logo appeared i.o. LE screen.

hope this helps,

jak

Hi,

I updated my X8HP to RC4 - Thank you for the great work !!!!

There is one thing I noticed with regard to the dongle for the A2 remote - I installed RC4 onto a USB Stick and not an SD card. Booting ONLY works if the remote dongle is NOT plugged into one of the USB ports. If dongle is present the device will boot into Minix Android.

One Q that I still have concerns the Whitelist - what exactly is needed here ? Is this a file that needs to be greated or a setting ticked ?
