On RPi5 you have to manually run "rpi-eeprom-update -a" via ssh to update the bootloader eeprom firmware.
so long,
Hias
Other way is download the zip, write the image and put into Pi 5. Wait fpr green screen and finish.
But "rpi-eeprom-update -a" is more comfortable.
Can you include new firmware in 11.0.5 ?
Kodi Nexus 20.3 was released yesterday.
Will there be LE 11.0.5 based on 20.3 or full focus on LE 12?
Is there any improvement from Pi 4 to Pi 5 in case of HDR 4k content?
We are talking about PI 5 - not 4
Hias, thank you!
I will do the first option.
Will this Firmware also included into nightly for LE 11 with Pi 5?
Hello,
how is the right way to update EEPROM/Firmware for PI 5?
Install LE and then (Link: https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/…g-your-firmware) :
or write image to SD Card from here
this release:
rpi-boot-eeprom-recovery-2023-12-06-2712
Thanks in advance!
If you have one on LE11 and one on LE12 it will "work" but they're accessing different versions of the DB so you loose watched/unwatched status and you'll need to scrape new content into both DB's. The LE12 nightlies are stable to use. There will be a kernel bump to Linux 6.6 at some point soon; that's one of our critera before moving to LE12 beta > release.
For PI 5 youll find nightly releases with LE 11 here:
No. Don't turn it off, you need to reboot the RPi4 so the update gets installed.
If that was successful LE won't boot any longer on RPi4 but should work fine on the RPi5.
If you turn it off without installing the update it won't boot on RPi5 (as it's still using the RPi4 installation) and thus the RPi5 update will never get installed.
so long,
Hias
Today i got my Pi 5 - this works perfectly. But you have to disable your boost settings from PI 4
Hope for LE 11 release for the Pi 5.
Thanks!

Hias, thank you very much!
I will give a feedback
Note that this ^ is a one-way upgrade as the RPi5 kernel that LE is using will not boot an RPi4. It's not impossible to recover from (mount and overwrite some files with the RPi4 image equivalents) but .. that's fiddly.
So, i will order a Pi 5 + new Power Suppy on Monday. This will replaced my PI 4 with LE 11.0.3.
To upgrade:
- Full Backup
- Upload via FTP img file for Pi 5 to ".update" folder
- create in ".update" folder ".nocompat" file
- turn off
- Plugin USB Stick into PI 5 - restart
- Hope
I haven't tested it myself yet but a manual "cross grade" on RPi4 (copy RPi5 tar/img.gz to the /storage/.update folder and also create a ".nocompat" file there, then reboot to install it) should work fine.
so long,
Hias
Same process for a installation on a USB 3.0 Stick?
Kodi still has the intent to make a 20.3 release but there are complications with shipping another K20 Android release via the Google Play store as Google now requires a minimum API version that's higher than K20 implements (and each API bump typically requires some finessing in Kodi code). The route forwards hasn't been agreed yet.
If/when/once https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/pull/8181 is merged support will be in nightlies; although personally I'd still prefer the team to focus on an LE12 release; while LE11 compiles fine I'm not sure anyone put some testing miles on it and users expect "stable" releases to be, well, stable.
Hi,
seems, PR is merged into Master.
Am i right, that LE will release a 11.x version?
Hi HiassofT
what do you think about a LE 11 support for PI 5 ? Is it possible?
If yes, must we have to wait for a Kodi Nexus 20.3 release?
