Is this without dtb.img on SD card? If not, please delete it and collect the log again. Thanks.

Yes, without

A correct way for 7.0.2.007 and S905X is to boot without device tree. If your WiFi doesn't work, connect via Ethernet and post logs (very important: collect them right after a fresh boot!). Maybe the WiFi chip is not supported yet. In most cases it's quite easy to add a new chip.

Hope this helps
I downloaded what I was told is the ota for this device. Below is the firmware and extracted dtb.img

BTW I tried it and WiFi, Bluetooth, & boot from SD didn't work

Firmware: 553mb
Dropbox - p212-ota-20160726.zip

dtb.img:
Dropbox - MiniMX3II

I'm using this from SD daily now with no running issues on a cheap as chips QCOQCE TX3 Box

Only trouble I have is that libreelec is not recognising the built in IR receiver? I can use the IR remote to turn on the device, but once it is running it does not seem to pick up any IR signals. Cheap USB 2.4 air mouse works fine though!

Great work guys

Maybe this will help, Try placing this remote.conf in your /configfiles folder.

Here is the log file from a fresh install first boot.

ALSO, I am using Pulsar's build

Thanks!

This time amazon shipped me the correct unit: S905x Beelink MiniMX3 II 2G/16g 2.4/5ghz 1000/mbps.

I tried the stock dtb.img and also deleting the dtb.img from SD. Both booted, but WiFi didn't work. What would be the correct device tree for the MiniMX III II

The cheapest S905X box I could find - T95X. I plan to use it only for S905X troubleshooting as I'm perfectly happy with WeTek Hub as my main device.

I purchased the same one, cuz it was the cheapest one I could find too. [emoji12]

I picked up a cheap T95x 1G/8G and see now see the downside of low mem/storage.

I copied a 1.8gb LE backup file to NAND for a restore, but even with about 3gb free (after uploading backup), LE it wouldn't restore due to low space. Also, after loading a skin and viewing through movies (which caches movie thumbs) I only have about 333mb left.

Wetek Hub although I may not even need LE as it's supposed to be great out of the box.

At a price of $89, its a shame its only 1gb

That's the challenge with S905X: make it boot every time with framebuffer console working. I am very confused why enabling output to framebuffer console breaks USB drive/SD card detection. Unless someone comes up with a solution you'd have to wait for my S905X box to arrive.

Hey Kszaq, if you don't mind me asking, which box did you order?

Quote from darren19633

Hi kszaq

retried with the new device tree file and although it says it was successfully installed, when I reboot the box it the screen just stays black.....that's it.

Tearing my hair out now.

Cheers

I installed the .007 on my SD without issue using the p200_2G_beelink_minimxiii.dtb (be sure to rename it on sd) btw it was super slow on SD. Then i used Kasaq's inclued script "installtointernal" which installed SD copy to NAND without I any problems.

Worked on my T95X as well. I did as JonSnow pointed out about having 2 back buttons.

A side question, how can u have 2 remotes in one remote.conf? I tried remote start/end and naming the remote, but it only used the last remote in file.

Can you test my build?
LibreELEC
I want to know other device is OK or Not.
I have TX5 (2G/8G)

It boots every time from SD & NAND

While I'm waiting for my S905X devel box to be delivered (ordered yesterday thanks to a few kind donations, will take some time to arrive), can you guys test a next build: http://kszaq.libreelec.tv/s905/devel/201...09d.img.gz

I received error :
*** Error in prepare_sysroot: mount_common: could not mount /flash/SYSTEM ***

Quote from pm_mickey

Device - Tanix Tx5 Pro (s905x 2GB RAM, 16GB eMMC)

Tested from uSD card (LibreELEC-S905.aarch64-7.0-devel-20160909192321-r23330-g284fbb8.img.gz)

Mostly fails with the folowing error:
*** Error in mount flash: mount common: Could not mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 ***
...

Rarely when boots normally only difference with 007 build is that Bluetooth successfully pairs with Amazon FireTV 1 remote

Attached is complete log...

Also output from ls /dev/tty*

Same problem booting from SD on a S905x T95X 1G/8B

Yeah it somewhat worked. With it plugged in I had a couple of lockups, not 100% sure it was related, but haven't had any without it connected.

I would really like to use the inclued ir receiver and create a .conf that will work with multiple remotes(maybe the stock one and MCE, pivos)

I was having the same issue too. No ir-keytable found so no way to run lircd to capure codes

Quote from JonSnow

Weird, maybe new stock is moving to s905x? I believe they did the same thing with s905 and s905 rev C. When i got my box it had rev C processor while others had the older one.

EDIT

Its a different box which is called the Beelink MINI MXIII II

Terrible name but we now know.

My description said "MiniMX3 II S905x"

When I got my box, it did look opened, no wire tie around the power supply cable and just kind of messy in box, wonder if i got a returned unit?

Do you think the S905x is better than the S905?
I guess what I’m saying is, I bought it through amazon which offers free returns + free shipping. I can order another one in hopes to get correct unit for same price. If its not, i can still return both as not described correctly and be out of pocket $0

Went ahead and printed a return lable for the S905 and re order another one, we'll see what we get the 2nd time around.

Quote from beelinkert

I will try to check what chip is inside. But if it's the S905 and not the X, shouldn't the standard S905 build work? Now, I have the build especially for the S905X (Pulsar build) that is working...
[hr]
I can confirm my unit has the S905X. I checked with CPU-Z and it says it's the Amlogic p212 board.

Ok, I purchased mine from amazon for $44 with the same description, but received the S905

Description
"Beelink Mini MX3 II 4K TV Box Streaming Media Player Android 6.0 Amlogic S905X Quad- core 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 up to 2GHz Penta-core ARM Mali-450 RAM DDR3 2GB ROM Onboard eMMC Flash 16GB 2.4G Wifi BT4.0 100M LAN TV Box"

tried both gxbb_p200_1Gbit.dtb and gxbb_p200_2G_1Gbit_OTG.dtb as the dtb.img

I tried both of these gxbb_p200_2G_1Gbit_OTG.dtb just NOW on my MiniMXIII from SD, they boot NP. But I still get slow speeds on SD still.

I have currently have gxbb_p200_2G_beelink_minimxIII.dbt currently on nand.

Like op said, did you get it working on SD, then run included scrip from SSH to copy to nand?
[hr]
BTW it also boots from USB
