I installed Libreelec-S802.arm-8.0.1a-S82.img.gz via sdcard on a minix x8-h device, now I want to install it on the NAND but when I execute the command I get the error

Code

LibreELEC: ~ # installtointernal
-sh: installtointernal: Permission denied

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

I have experience with LE on several boxes but can't seem to get an MXQ m201_c with Android on it going.

I downloaded the MXQ image, created USB with Rufus, and tooth picked into it. When I get to the recovery screen I select 'apply update from external' then udisk but don't see any files to select. I added a .zip file and tried again but then I get a signature verification failed error. I also tried creating the USB stick with Libreelec USB creator and Win32disk.

By the way, I get more than 2 files after creating USB. I get the ones you list and 2 more of the same name but with a .md5

What am I doing wrong?

[font]LibreELEC-S805.m201d.arm-7.0.3.3c.zip[/font] loads perfect for me on my MXQ M201C but not the [font]8.0.0g [/font]version.For now I managed to get alexelec m201d version working but I'm hoping I can get a newer libreelec working

Things will work fine from 5 mins to 30 Mins and randomly Video will freeze and then Krypton will reboot. happens mostly on Video Playback. However I have one of these
crappy MXQ Boxes with 512M of RAM (Fake RAM Box was supposed to be 1 GIG) and only build that worked was the M201D. So Probably the shortage of RAM may be my issue.

did you manage to update yours to [font]LibreELEC-S805.arm-8.0-8.0.0g-m201d.tar[/font] ???
mine will only load [font]LibreELEC-S805.m201d.arm-7.0.3.3c.zip[/font]

Hi,

This is an awesome work!

I flashed my Black MXQ S805 m201c with this firmware using NAND "toothpick" method.
I'm very impressed with the speed of this firmware and the low memory usage.
However, I'm not ready yet to move to full Kodi, I need Android back.

I tried to revert back Android firmware using SDRAM "toothpick" method but failed.
Constant blue light but no display.
Before LibreElec, I tried OpenElec successfully and flashed back Android using this same firmware with no problems, so I know I have the correct Android firmware for my device.
I flashed back LibreElec and it's back to live, but I noticed the "MXQ" boot logo and "MBOX" boot animation are gone.

I noticed the aml_autoscript that comes with LibreElec.
I'm not sure, but I think it changes the bootloader on the NAND, disabling the Android boot.

Code

setenv bootfromnand 0
setenv bootfromsd 'if test ${bootfromnand} = 1; then setenv bootfromnand 0; saveenv; exit; fi; if test ${reboot_mode} = switch_system; then exit; fi; if mmcinfo; then if fatload mmc 0 ${loadaddr} kernel.img; then setenv bootargs ${bootargs} bootfromsd; bootm; fi; fi'
setenv bootcmd 'run bootfromsd; run storeboot'
setenv cecconfig cecf
setenv reboot_mode normal
saveenv

How can I flash Android back to my device?
I don't have any TWRP backup, if someone here can provide a backup would I be able to restore Android back?

Thanks in advance.

I updated my MXQ V1.0 with LibreELEC-S805.m201d.arm-7.0.3.3c.zip loaded perfect everything works great.Next I tried to update to LibreELEC-S805.arm-8.0-8.0.0g-m201d.tar and I get md5 check failed any idea how to fix this?

I'm wondering if anyone managed to get libreelec working on one of these.My neighbor has one and asked me if its possible id like to give it a try.I had an older version openelec working on it once I think 5.95 maybe but the next version bricked it.I restored it with the files on this video

Quote from pedrodank

Thanks a lot for this!

Can anyone just tell me how can I flash the device? Also, is 1GB RAM enough for kodi v16 and 1080p streaming?

Cheers!

the one I flashed seems to stream 1080 np so far

just loaded this on my uncles box M8S BCM4335 Board M8 V8_6.Works awsume so far I don't see any issues only showing 1gb ram thanks excellent job

I noticed it doesn't say experimental in the header anymore does that mean the proper fbdev Mali libraries were found or?

Quote from Demetris

It will better use an openelec image 1st and use the tar image to update to LE
