    Balbes,

    I tested your build with new kernel configuration and everything on my Eny M8S seems to work. I also can see bleutooth devices altough I didn't try to pair them.
    What I noticed is that it doesn't play dvd from my external dvd-rom. It mounts the DVD but if I try to play them it says "working" and the system hangs until you remove the dvd from the tray.


    1. DVD previously worked ?
    2. What version of LE you are trying to play a DVD ?
    3. What media runs LE (SD or USB or eMMC) ?

    Collected updated version (20170208). Changed the settings the WiFi and BT. On Tronsmart MIII Plus (v 2.2) everything works. Please to those who have the opportunity to check the work WiFi and BT. And write the result on what models work or no WiFi and BT.

    ADD
    Added another version of the image for testing, with a modified kernel configuration. If there is a wish to search the directory 20170206/TEST_KERNEL

    You need to copy the dtb from a directory in the root of FAT partition file "meson8m2_n200_2G.dtb" and rename it to "dtb.img". If You have not yet activated multiboot, it will need to be activated.

    A question to the owners S812 and S802 in which the activated multiboot. Can anyone help me in initial testing Linux\Ubuntu platform s802\s812 ? The task is simple - download the image, burn to USB stick or card you need to copy the dtb and try to start the system. I am interested in overall health (presence of images on the monitor have different models).
    Test images can be downloaded here.
    Yandex.Disk


    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 ?

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

    Have you tried to run the existing images from the media in multi-boot mode ?

    ...or use the standard Android app "Update&Backup". I don't understand. What's .zip file I must flash with Android app "Update&Backup"?

    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.
