Yep, this is the version for you.
If your method doesnt work, look below is the video instr for the toothpick method. Thats also your failsafe in case the box doesnt boot on the new firmware...

Great, thanks! Can you please tell me how to flash?
For me everything including 1080p streaming works fine with 1gb. The only issue so far is that I cannot wake the box using the remote but have to unplug the power.
To flash you need an blank SD card.
Put the zip on the SD card and insert the SD card in the box.
In the regular android firmware go to Apps and down the bottom open the Update&Backup.
Once in it, check Wipe Data and Wipe Media, then click select and that will allow you to select the zip from your SD card. Once selected, click Update.
The alternative is to use the toothpick method (google it) which updates directly from recovery.
Firstly, cheers and thanks so much for this... My OTT box has been collecting dust for over a year until I came across this post in my last attempt to revive it.
So far everything seems to work great, except one issue.
When I turn the box on using a remote or via CEC it powers on but does not boot. It just sits there with a blank screen (not even the Amlogic logo shows up).
However, if I unplug the power and plug it back in it boots perfectly.
Any ideas???
