M8 blue light problem.

[JustMe]

I have some more info on the M5 box...something is wrong with the remotes that it comes with.

The remote which comes with the unit has a usb receiver and when I use it on the model, it doesn't completely shut off the unit. When I hit the power (or hold for several seconds - makes no difference), it kills the video to the tv - no signal, but the box is still on and the blue light remains on. When it's "off" and I hit power, nothing happens. To boot it up I have to unplug and replug the power cord.

I tried my other remote which doesn't require the usb receiver (this remote was from the m8) and it controls the M5 perfectly (for the most part). When it's "off" and the blue light is flashing, if I use the other remote and hit power, immediately it shuts off fully and goes red. If I hit power again, it powers on, hit it again, red light off. Only thing I noticed when using the M8 remote is during video playback, the volume buttons kick me out of xbmc.

Any ideas about this remote issue I'm having with the m5?

See below. The one on the right is the problematic one with the M5 units. The left one is from the M8 which works perfect on the M5.

In regards to the M8 flash, I upgraded it to the below:

3.10.33

Still the exact same issue with the light on all the time. Is there any way to get the firmware from elsewhere? All of my units are trash right now.

First 2 are M8, second 2 are M5.

M8 is the Amlogic S802. M5 is the Amgogic S805.

The M8 looks like from tomato, you can use finless, mine or any stock rom in this forum or even code snakes etc

Thanks I'm going to try this out!

I just want to confirm though, extract both and copy over the files?



I extracted the main justme zip and then zip inside of it...asks to overwrite some files..

I tried it anyway, the boxes are freezing up when trying to load from the sd, I have 1.6b on it.

Thanks
