I unzip the img.gz file,I take the image and i put it in the update folder and that's it! But I will try again with the tar file to see the difference. The folder is calling "update"

I'm not sure you're meant to unzip the img.gz ?

Edit: Confirmed by gujal

Do not Unzip Files

I'm not sure Updating on Demetris builds means copying the .tar file into the UPDATE folder. (there's no image in that .tar file)

Or copying the .img.gz into the UPDATE folder.

The only time i unzip the img.gz is to retrieve the image for burning onto SD Card.

Quote from gujal

For upgrade you should use tar file.

img file is only for fresh install.

Put the tar image in the upgrade folder and reboot.

I'm not Hijacking Thread or being smart, Just questioning your specific instructions.

For UPDATE (Not Upgrade it confuses newbies)use the .tar (Don't UnZip)

Put the (tar image, not a tar image) .tar in the (upgrade folder) Update folder ? I can be corrected on the name of this folder as i haven't flashed yet so i don't know if this is the name of this folder.

I guess the worst thing that can happen is that the card doesn't boot. I don't see any aml_autoscript files, so if booting for the first time what files are needed?

About to try and Flash Demetris LE to run on SD Card .

The box is an M8 which has a Linux proprietary version of Kodi. (ArnuBox)

I have just burnt Demetris LibreELEC-S802.S82.arm-7.0.3.img to SD Card.

The SD Card is showing up as " NO NAME "

I thought the card should be showing up as " BOOT " ?

Inside i only see :

kernel.img

kernel.img.md5

SYSTEM

SYSTEM.md5

There is no aml_autoscript files.

So how is multi-boot going to happen ?

I do not want to install to Nand so my question is,

What have i missed here before i try to flash.

Quote from Elumonq

Newbie to LE. I wanted to test it. I got an M9s Pro, S905, with 2gb RAM and 16gb ROM.
I tried 8.0.2b and 8.0.2c with few of the tree dtb files without any success.

I used Google and cannot see M9s Pro with a S905 Chip.

I only see M9s Pro S905X Chip.

Please check specs.

Hi! I have a Nexbox A95X 1/8G device

S905 or S905X Chip ???????????????????????????????????????????????

If you have the S905 Chip ???????????

Use the Realtek WiFi Fix Device Tree.

Quote from zomboided

Yeah, 4.0.8 was bad. 4.0.9 has been pushed now.

Might need to alert Updates to the OP with Changelog.

I've just gone through the 4.0.8 wiping the addon and no 4.0.8 was visible in your Github.

I got a bit of a scare.

I disabled your Repo to stop Updates.

Quote from kszaq

If you can reproduce the issue on other targets this means the issue is in Kodi and/or add-on

Thank You for looking kszaq. I've finally got to the bottom of this with the Author. Damn Youtube Version was also the issue in Krypton.

Quote from Mick84

I can confirm the issue is noticed in Android system as well - checked on Kodi 17.1 and 17.3 both

I have marked this as solved.

Updated to AliveGR 0.8.26 and

YouTube

Version 5.3.12

Fixed Playback issues.

Quote from anaisa

A bit off topic but do you suggest getting this tv box? Just saw a deal on geekbuyng where it's only $48.99

I had 2 of these go bad on me.

Red standby light stayed on and box was un responsive.

I opened it and heated up the internal flash memory with a Heat Gun to reflow the solder which fixed the issue.

Pretty good box with Qualcomm Wifi but be aware these TX5Pros come out with 3 Different wifi chips.

Don't quote resellers in the forum.

Quote from joefizz

I have pureVPN and I can sign in no problem and I can connect to the VPN, My problem is that after it disconnects for no reason.

I have tried multiple servers but always with the same result, disconnection. I was hoping you could tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Asus chromebox

Start reading from below link and you might come to the conclusion that your VPN Provider may be your issue.

Quote from AuXBoX

I have 2 Nexbox a95x and both have troubles with wifi dropping in and out. Also just generally really slow speed even though the signal strength is really good. I probably can only transfer around 1 or 2 mb/s.

Any ideas?

Please disclose your chip S905 or S905x.

Are you using the Realtek Wifi Device tree ???

The s905 box needs Realtek Device Tree

Could be your issue.

Quote from fxfxfx

but the device never registers with the Amlogic USB Tool, as it is supposed when booted into (USB) recovery.

Head over to Freaktab Amlogic Burning Tool

Start there.

And HERE

How on earth do I flash recovery and a new OS, when reverting from LibreElec?

Amlogic USB Burning Tool.

Quote from jazzy

I add samba folder. When making backup I can choose it but when I clik ok nothing happened. Backup isn't making.

It works only when choosing internal storage.

Mate just insert a USB Stick and back up to that.

Do whatever and once you're back to a fresh install LE just restore from previous backup with the USB Stick inserted.

This thread is not meant for back up issues.

Quote from marcell

Can you solve it somewhere?

Go and buy a usb wifi adapter realtek chip or something common.

Not worth the headspace chasing drivers from the orient.

Here you go

Then go to to Firmware below

Zoomtak T8v running LE 8.0.2a in flash has spat its dummy out, has network issues

What does that mean ? Are you double checking the Device Tree installed.

Specs :

Wifi RTL 8211 F

Gigabit Ethernet

S905 Chip. 2gb/16gb

Quote from anti-matter

It don't seem to want to flash via sd card gets stuck on boot logo when trying to flash android stock

To boot into recovery after installing LE to internal memory use this procedure:

You need your Factory recovery.img and dtb.img

• prepare a clean, FAT32-formatted SD card or USB drive
• copy recovery.img and dtb.img from your Android firmware to SD card (don't use dtb.img for LE!)
• use "toothpick" method to boot from SD card/USB drive or execute reboot recovery over SSH

For everyone who had problems with audio sync in Krypton builds. This advancedsettings works:

XML

I used search in LE and found this as a fix for Krypton Audio/Video Sync.

I am using Krypton 8.0.2a (2017-05-28) and have noticed i have to set Audio offset Ahead By : 0.125s for Audio to be in Sync with

all my 23.979 fps movies.

I copied this XML for Krypton into Userdata and rebooted. It was a little better but obviously not right for my sync timing.

Can someone help in maybe modifying this XML to work with Audio offset Ahead By : 0.125s.

Or is my issue not fixable using advancedsettings ??

EDIT : Just ReBooted and Playback Audio/Video Sync Fixed.

I did Remove the XML File.

I have no idea what happened here.
