I will answer questions later, after the release of new images. The end of the year - not enough time.

Still no Bluetooth, the WiFi works for a bit then stops working (not network activity) like in the 8.0.0 build. Iit sometimes causes freezes when rebooting but at least it didn't cause the entire device to hang.

Try to connect via SSH and get the list of modules that you are using (lsmod).

Tried the S812.LAN1000 builds and they work great! While LAN works 100%, Bluetooth is not recognized and the device tends to hang when using WiFi.

Have you tried the version from this directory ?

Where can I found new boot script for S812 android box?

You need to download and burn to SD card these two file. Next, use the toothpick or use the app "Update&Backup".
Yandex.Disk

I have also found I can reach the Android recovery screen if I eject the sd card and use toothpick.
I have tried copying the files onto a usb drive, choosing "apply update from EXT", "update from udisk" , selecting "aml_autoscript.zip", but when it verifies the update package it fails with "E: footer is wrong" and "E: signature verification failed".

Activation multi-boot is possible only with SD card. After activating multi-boot, the system will be able to run images from SD cards and USB flash drives. Please note, the initial activation of the multi-boot is possible ONLY with SD card.

Hello Balbes 150,
This AlexELEC version is working on my m8s+ box....I run from SD CARD but it is older version.I need new version libreelec from you with kodi 17...Can you try build libreelec for my box ?Thanks!
I try every your images but always it show pictures libreelec and show messages error: something like cant find FLASH/SISTEM ,job done...I think you need correct dbt and kernel to start libreelec on my S812 m8s+ box....Maybe you can extract from this AlexELEC version...

This error is usually not associated with dtb.
Perhaps bad media. You upgraded-boot to the latest version ?

Hi. I have an MXIII-G box and previously had the Wilro build of OE with multiboot installed.
I have burned the image "LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000.arm-7.0.2.6_20161130" to an SD card and can boot as far as the LE logo, but no further.
The wired interface is up and I have ports 111 and 445 open.
Looking in \logfiles\01_KODI.log there are some ERROR entries:-
ERROR: DBus: Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.freedesktop.UPower was not provided by any .service files
ERROR: SQL: [Addons20.db] SQL error or missing database
Does anyone have any suggestions for booting past the LE logo into Kodi? Thanks in advance.

Activate the new multiboot. Older versions multiboot cannot work with new images (which use the script s905_autoscript).

I burn image to SD card and use toothpick method, LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000.arm-7.0.2.6_20161130.img.xz and copied s805_autoscript, the SDcard boot correctly, I see logo Libreelec, but stop with error: SH: can't access tty: job control turned off. What means?

If after recording the image on the media there is a file s805_autoscript, neither of which advanced copy is NOT necessary. The script that You copied additionally is suitable for images where it is not.

Hi balbes150, Thanks again for making these builds available. Any plans for a new build before the end of the year? With holidays upcoming it certainly understandable if you have more important things to do.

Hi. 7up The plans are there. But now is not enough time.

How activate the "new" version of multi-boot...

Burn image to SD card and use toothpick method or use the standard Android app "Update&Backup".

There are two options for multi-boot s812. The "old" version can only run LE. The "new" (universal) version of the tool multi that able to run any images of the LE and Linux. I think You have activated the "old" version. To work my images need re-activate the "new" version of multi-boot.

I've Tronsmart MXIII Plus 108L1.
I've create SDcard with LibreELEC-S812.MXIII_Plus.arm-7.0.2.6_20161115.img.xz. Boot to SD card is ok.
I've view the LibreELEC logo but left up compare this text error: Error in prepare-sysroot: mount_common: could not mout /dev/system
Starting debuging...
And now?

Thanks in advance

You have completed the activation of the recorded multi-boot with the new image ?

What prevents You to try ? This version can work with external media (firmware TV box remains unchanged).

i have try all
i do someting wrong i burn image LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000 to sdcard after that i replace the aml autoscript and aml autoscript zip with your 2 minix files i do revovery and relace i get recovery menu and can choose only the aml autoscrip zip if i choose aml auto script i get message - E: footer is wrong
- E: signature verification failed

if i use your LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000 zip package and install on sdcard package open and install on internal memory from the box if i restart with or without sdcard libreelec running only from internal with no wifi signal only lan

so i don,t understand can you upload me one update zip package for sdcard with all in so i must only go to recovery and install

1. Download boot.scr (from the directory the link I gave earlier).
2. To write an image LE.
3. Create the first section of the media directory "boot"
4. Copy the newly created directory "boot script boot.src" (/boot/boot.src)
5. Use the toothpick to activate the multi-boot.

Request to all users of version Minix Neo X8H who have the console UART. Check this instructions on how to activate the multi-boot on Minix Neo X8H.

Hi balbes150,

Update from Post # 36:

• Manual update from 7.0.2.5 to LibreELEC-S812.MXIII_Plus.arm-7.0.2.6.tar - works. Everything is fine except Bluetooth broken (used to work in 7.0.2.5). Tried all setting to turn on and off but could not work. Still H265 video is choppy. Lots of buffering. Still no power off.
• In new USB, I tried your Krypton 17 build: Yandex.Disk - Everything works including Bluetooth. Off-course no power off & H265 video still choppy / buffering. Overall happy with build.

keep it up your good work!

Thanks again,

MakaaiD

If You are difficult, try to run from external media version of the catalog LAN10000

After examining the firmware files for Your device, I will try to assemble a new version of the scripts.

LibreELEC-S812.MXIII_Plus.arm-7.0.2.6_20161115.img.gz works great via SD card but I will try Krypton and the image from the catalog LAN1000 tomorrow. I saw some comments you made on Freaktab forum about a "glitch" in the file? Can you better explain what if anything needs to be modified?

In the images that are now on the website , the bug is fixed. No change is required.

boot.scr

Judging by the output, the script is not executed. Describe in detail how You tried to activate the multi-boot. Have you tried to replace the files on the test ? Have you tried to change the name of the script with the "aml_autoscript" to "boot.scr" ?

Quote from mickey

for some reason this box don,t see the image write on sdcard think protected from minix and don,t boot up from sdcard if i go to recovery mode i see sdcard with empty folder and nothing to install if i install from zip package this update running and start libreelec from internal memory only no android anymore i don,t need android so i have install your latest kodi 17 1000 version on the box all running oke only wired i have connection no option for wifi wifi enabled only there are no poppup wifi conection to choose from so wifi not working for me it will be great if you can fix this for me

Show the output of fw_printenv after trying to activate the multi-boot with the test files.

Quote from mickey

i think i miss something so only this 2 files on sd card and recovery mode aml autoscript bin and autoscript zip and the libreelec file? or only this 2 files

Burn image on SD card. Replace the two files. The rest of the files do not change.
Insert the card into the TV box. Turn on the TV box while pressing the reset button (the toothpick method). The appearance of the first screen - release the button.
The result - write to me.

LibreELEC-S812.MXIII_Plus.arm-7.0.2.6_20161115.img.gz booted fine via SD on MXIII plus here. Thanks for making these builds.

If You are difficult, try to run from external media (you can use any USB stick) image of Krypton and the image from the catalog LAN1000.

You can try this option.
1. To restore the regular firmware Android via USB cable (always using the USB cable to restore all partitions to the original state).
2. To write an image LE to the SD card.
3. To replace on the SD card are two files ("aml_autoscript" and "aml_autoscript.zip" on the files from the website from the directory multiboot-minix).
4. To activate the multi-boot method toothpicks or through the RECOVERY mode.
5. To check which system will run when inserted the SD card and without it.

I understand that LibreELEC-S812.MXIII_Plus.arm is the file from this link ?

LibreELEC-S812.MXIII_Plus.arm-7.0.2.6.zip

On this link You are shown the u-boot. Which stopped the system boot process. See the invitation to enter teams from u-boot (#). In this mode you need to run the command "help" (enter help after the grid

# help

and press enter). In response, u-boot displays all the commands that he is able to perform. I'm interested in the list of commands available (for use the execution of scripts in u-boot).

Test script activate the multi-boot ready. Before using I need to ask You a number of nuances. Describe or give a link to the description of the steps You perform to install the updates of Your firmware from Sd card or from USB ? What files are in the update ? I need to specify the file name of the script that performs the You update. Here are the test files (script files and zip) for MINIX. You may have to rename the script from aml_autoscript to boot.src.uimg or boot.src

Yandex.Disk

If possible, show the output of "help" from u-boot (to stop the start u-boot and perform help). It will tell what are the teams in the u-boot. It is desirable to estimate what commands you can use in a script auto-activation and multi-boot.
