i have ordered this box as an upgrade to my existing m8s pro +.
i hope there is going to be an atv rom available.

Note that this is a pseudo-ATV build (has Google Play Store for Android TV, but not the Android TV Launcher), and it's also locked down with some proprietary form of Android Verified Boot (AVB), so we probably won't be able to install TWRP anytime soon.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This bootloader seems incompatible with the M8S Pro, so don't try to flash it on those older devices. (I just had to recover mine by shorting pins on the NAND.)

Is this not available via the ota update app?

So Dear Magendanz
Do you think will have an full android Rom Nexus type in the future period for this device based on this firmware or future will come? It is now the only device in the market with L1 with normal specs,so many people ordered and have hopes to be base player in home!

Yes. The ROMs I released yesterday for M8S Pro and M8S Pro+ is proof of that, but I just don't have an M8S Pro L yet. (Two are on their way, one from GearBest and another from GeekBuying.)

However, because of the way they've locked things down a bit more, you may not get TWRP custom recovery or root. I'm still working on that.

just recieved this box and its shipped with this firmware
dont think I need a TV rom, as its got the TV version of google play already.
thanks for the firmware link, atleast i can try LibreElec with a backup option if it all goes Kaput.

So, if you want to live on the bleeding edge, here's the M8S Pro L version of the Nexus TVStock custom ROM that I just released for the M8S Pro:

update_M8S_PRO_L-V0619_TVStock-20171001.zip

It's also based on this 20170918.111557.V0619 OEM firmware for the M8S Pro L, but it has the original OEM bootloader. It *should* work, but I still don't have my own M8S Pro L hardware to verify.

this certainly works on the M8S pro L
TWRP also loads, Thank you
just have to reload LibreElec somehow as Ive lost the boot process when changing to this rom.

edit: ended up using the terminal command reboot update to reload LibreElec again.

Thanks for that! I'll split this off into its own topic, then.

Where can I find more on libreelec.
is it just used as kodifork ? Or am I totally off track?

Its Kodi on its own OS, usually installed on a USB or SD card,
It boots from an SD card or USB and leaves the Android Rom untouched.

Oh I see!
has this box got the same issues as other s912 boxes with surround sound and pass through?
