Thanks to the nice work of kszaq, I was able to run LibreElec on my SCISHION V88 PRO which was delivered today. I use LibreELEC-S905.aarch64-7.0-devel-20161003204518-r23361-gb5788b7.img with gxl_p212_1g.dtb as dtb.img and get it on the box with the 2nd recovery method. There are two issues i can figure out until know. The front LED don't get hight on bootup and the remote don't work. For a working remote, I write the attached remote.cfg. I hope this help someone.

Maybe some buttons should get better commands but every button is listed.
To make this work, copy the code in /storage/.config/remote.conf and run remotecfg /storage/.config/remote.conf.

fastriker Analog audio out might work, although I don't have a device with analog out to test it. CVBS video output is not supported.

Thank you for the hint. Is this information valid for all LE-Devices or only for the S905-Port?

I have problems to connect the box with RCA connector. I have a adapter for the AV socket with video on the top, than left audio, than right audio and ground at the nearest point to the cable. My TV don't get the signal. Is there a configuration to activate the function in LE or anything else I don't have in mind?

fastriker i had the same issue with this box, mine was Leelbox Mxq Pro 4k, it seems that some of this crap box sellers use a different uboot version to block multi boot, i finally fixed it with flashing this update

Download Android Lollipop 5.1.1 stock firmware for MXQ Pro TV Box - China Gadgets Reviews

download it extract everything to an USB Stick which you then plug in to USB Port 4, then in Android use the Update & Backup app and select p201-ota-20160331.zip to flash it, take note it could be that when it is in recovery that it writes out an error, if that happens choose the p201-ota-20160331.zip again in recovery, then after flashing boot logo changed, which seems to be the real stock firmware for this device, after that i finally was able to use libreelec from sdcard and also was able to flash it on the nand.

I had this. Issue the only thing I could do was put a fake update.zip (any zip file) on you sdcard and then use the android update program, choose your take zip and let it reboot. It will then boot from the sdcard, after that it will boot done without doing the update trick.

Thank you both for the fast answers. I choose Craigs tip, because it was faster and can't brick the box. It worked perfect for me

Hi,

I tried to install LE on my MXQ Pro 4K Box (OTT TV) I ordered a while ago from ali. My main problem is that pushing the reset button has no effect. Probably the same problem like here or here (not open the box until now).

I can enter the recovery over typing 'reboot recovery' in a Terminal Emulator. I don't know how I can boot LE from there. Maybe I can make the box boot from SD/USB by execute the s905_autoscript to modify the uboot env?

By the way, the box seems to have a p201 device tree, because the android build number is 'p201-userdebug 5.1.1 lmy47v 20160323 test-keys'.

I am happy about every hint.

Regards
