Runing LibreELEC-MXQ-4K-Pro_2G.arm-9.2.8.6 when trying to update to LibreELEC-Generic_S905.arm-9.2.8.8.tar i get:

###Starting debugging shell for boot step: mount _storage…type exit to quit ###
*** Error in mount_storage: mount_commin: Could not mount LABEL=STORAGE ***

i updated before whit the tar files and didnt had this kind of error.

You did not write exactly what kind of device you have, nor whether the LE runs from an SD card or an eMMC. If you boot from an SD card, you should try a clean installation first (with the correct dtb) on another SD card to see if it boots at all.

ok, thanks, but how come that my XBOX One does not support 23.976 with kodi in the same TV(lg oled b1) as my other pc and rpi3 does?

This is OS and/or driver specific, so Microsoft may be the only one who can answer your question.

now i have 9.0.2. Should I update as you described?

If you want to update your existing LE9.x system, do this:

Install an update package:

To install the update, you need to download, and then copy the update file (tar) to the Update folder via SMB, and then restart the device. The update process will start automatically after the restart.

After last update an week before, I have a problem - Faled load Kernel modules during start. Video and audio are playing with very long lag, impossible to watch. Device is M8mini with s905 1gb ram

Please send a link from dmesg | paste. Unfortunately, I can't help without a log.

Also important information is which version you updated from and which dtb you are using.

working, btw does power savings shutdown/susped working on amlogic?

It depends on the factory uboot bootloader, which one is supported. Under Core, only shutdown is supported, suspend does not work, so it has been disabled.

Hello to everyone. I have install the new update of LibreELEC 9.2.8.8 to my mxiii-g s812 tv box. Lately I notice that many adds updates can't installed. A message says that "The dependency on xbmc.python version 3.0.0 could not be satisfied". Does anyone can help ?

This is completely independent of the last update. If an add-on requires Python3, Leia is probably no longer supported by it.

wetek hub: can i add to internal storage and do update later?

This image can be installed on the eMMC in the legacy way:

Quote from dtech

WeTek NAND Installation Guide: Download the NAND installation zip file, extract it, and copy the contents of the file to the root folder of an FAT32-formatted SD card. Disconnect the power cord from the WeTek device, insert the prepared SD card, and plug in the power jack while pressing the reset button through the toothpick-sized hole in the bottom panel. You need to hold the button about 8-10 seconds until the LibreELEC installation begins.

However, keep in mind that you will not be able to directly update from 9.x images to 11.x or later.

Does the all black mxq with s805 have bluetooth capablities? If so, how easy is it co connect a bt headset to it?

We found out earlier that there is a USB-based RTL8188ETV in your S805 MXQ box, which is just an 802.11n wifi chip without Bluetooth support. So, unfortunately, the answer is that there is no Bluetooth support in your box.

Quote from Zuma

what about for S905D ?

is LE11 ok with it?

The situation is the same because the image is also the same. The AMLGX image supports GXBB/GXL/GXM chips.

Hello! I dont speak very nice English, i am from automatic translate.

if you know, tell me about these two tv boxes,

which libreelec versions with their respective device trees should I put on an sd card.

1. W95 2/16gb Android 7.1 2. A95X F3 4/64gb, Android 9.

Thanks.

Unfortunately, you are asking in a dead topic, please try here:

Quote from infbaudo

it's written Keep in mind that only "amremote" is supported but i can't find any information to set up my remote

There is a very big misunderstanding here, under LE11 no one wrote that there is amremote support, because it is not supported.

The LE9.2 version I created is an unofficial community version, it was actually supported there, but the LE11 is a completely different topic.

I checked and there haven't had any access issues with my server since yesterday, so the LibreELEC repo was working properly.

However, I cannot comment about Kodi game (alpha) repo, because it is not hosted on my server.

Official release was never made for this box, only a community image. If you think so, try mine:

http://libreelec.dtech.hu/snapshots/20230305_master_8fae180/LibreELEC-Generic_S912.arm-9.2.8.8.img.gz

I agree with chewitt, the box still doesn't have the actual original bootloader, or the label on the RAM chips is fake. But if it doesn't cause any problems, then I think you should leave it at that. Many boxes work without problems with 1 GB of RAM, under Leia it is not so problematic.

However, there is one important thing: please turn off the automatic update on the LibreELEC Settings interface, because I will release v9.2.8.8 soon, and it will overwrite the modified kernel.

The reason for this is the following:

AMLOGIC

...

To set expectations, here’s the ‘No’ list:

• No support for updates from older LE releases (clean install is mandatory)
• No support for internal eMMC install except WeTek Hub/Play2 and SBC boards
• No support for SSV6501 and S908CS WiFi chips
• No drivers for in-box DVB tuners
• No hardware deinterlacing
• No HDR to SDR tonemapping
• No formal support for newer S905X2/D2/Y2, S905X3, S922X, A311D devices (read below)

Only managed to boot from MXIII-1GB image, but then the "read only" known issue

Please try the n200 image with this kernel:

Index of /_TEST_/MXIII-G_1GB-kernel/

If it starts with this, your Android is unfortunately only lying that you have 2GB of RAM, but in fact it only manages 1GB.

The root of the problem doesn't start here, as I see. I think your box does not have the original ROM with the factory bootloader, because based on the photos, there are 4 pieces of 512MB Samsung K4B4G0846C chips on the PCB.

So, in short...

Your box is equipped with 2GB of RAM, but it seems that the factory ROM has been overwritten. You should first find the factory ROM for his box from somewhere and flash it. If you're done with that, you should try the Universal k200 image. (But this wifi chip really won't work.)
