    The android versions have nothing to do with libreelec, openelec or OSMC as they are all linux operating systems with kodi over the top and not android which is just the normal Kodi android version, quite often with pirate addons and useless junk pre installed as well. I think on some boxes it might be possible to replace the android os with one of these builds but it can be risky, I bricked one android device doing it and am now on the pi.


    exactly, bricking is a common problem because there are no official support even from the box maker, because they sell pirate addon stuff, thats why i'm suggesting we create community support with stable kodi software for these boxes, i will donate for LE, and i believe hundreds more user will do so, people with these cheap boxes no where to get help,

    it would be nice if LE could support it, as so many users own these boxes and its gank (clone), actually most user only want kodi alone on their box not android, because its cheap and low energy consumtion to replace htpc, even some are cheaper than rpi, it also include remote and casing, if only LE could make special team to concentrate on this segment, i think it would get so many potential users who want to support the development by donation,maybe someday even amlogic will support the development and let alone OE develop for their x86 and sponsors, so it wont rival each other :)

    LibreELEC uses the same file structure, so 'crossgrading' to LibreELEC will not change things in that respect.


    cool, thanks, so beside the name, are there some features that OE doesnt have or vice versa? and there are a lot chinesse no name amlogic box spreading around which OE doesnt officially support, is it LE will support it? excuse my english :)

    i'm a long time xbmc and openelec user, can anyone describe to me is it the LE file structure the same like in OE, the storage, userdata, and addons, if only i just change system and kernel files, is the storage still usable? thanks
