    Sleep can be good but for a long time with a power supplies that MAY be well....If its off its off,
    Maybe need to improve Booting times of these boxes,
    Sleep wastes power...no matter how small.

      Yeah, but my current workaround is to just leave the device fully powered on, and that wastes considerably more power.

    ok so i have created sd card with M8S_PRO_L-NHG47L-20171127.165619.V0928.img file and with tool Burn_Card_Maker after that i have run reboot update command on terminal emulator and have updated to that latest firrmware so my question is, how is that this rom is so different then original 09.18 20170918 and that no chrome is installed on it

    ok so if i'm not mistaken
    .img firmware is for update using Burn Card Maker
    .zip for update using original recovery or twrp

      I have not had a lock up at all on Magendanz's latest firmware mod. Temp running Kodi is still hitting the 200 degree F mark, but don't see any ill effects??

        Hello,
        i tried your fix. Seems that there are some fragments of Leanback Launcher or something else remains in System. The App aborts again.
        Now i wan´t to make a full Flash with the Firmware and maybe a try of your non ATV Firmware.
        How can I make this without the Reset Button? I know Burn Card Maker. Does the L1 Key still remains?

          Well, the new OEM firmware uses the Leanback Launcher, so that's by design. You can flash new ROMs with the Update app, or you can launch USB Burning Tool, load the burn package (.img file), hit Start, and then type "reboot update" from a terminal window. (Hopefully, this will be easier once Videostrong updates it bootloader to detect USB OTG without the reset button.)

        Hi Magendaz and all,
        i update my M8S PRO L with this latest firmware.....but unfortunatly NETFLIX now play movie don't use all screen.... but is align on the left and is not all wide...
        With previous firmware NETFLIX works very well, in HD, full screen.

        Please can you help me to come back to previous firmware?

        Unfortunatly if i try to use Magendanz nexus firmware, RAIPLAY, portal for italian tv network crash and netflix don't start.

        Where i found OTA upgrade for previous FW?
        is possible?

        thanks
        Marco

              That file is dated Nov. 11, don't think it is new.

                  true,
                  this firmware can't be installed in OTA mode.
                  Procedure tell me that is not possible to install the firmware on a newer version.
                  someone have a link to an img file?
                  i finally have a terminal in the box and i can run a command to reboot into system update, correct?

                      Agreed..hardware spec is deceiving..i regret buying it. But sending it back will be a hard choice..that is y i keep looking for custom firmware..

                            Yes, the OEM OTA update script won't let you downgrade (or install in TWRP). I fixed the script on some of these and posted here: http://freaktab.org/28~f

                            Just look for the "-fixed" suffix.

                          turtlegsr you can fixit yourself, unzip zip open file updater-script delete first 2 lines save and re-zip, Guest xplaned that in one of his post
