Still running the stable Gotham release of this ROM on my square M8, rock solid and great performance. Can count the number of crashes I've had on one hand.

Absolutely brilliant, thanks again Codesnake.

That build runs great, but I'm not able to install on my G Box Q for some reason. Builds after that install fine, it's just the gotham build gives blank screen

Is it worth it or should i stick with android.

Install Jonke's Kerbers build, as newer kernel. That's a real good build also, just the power off option reboots the box, doesn't power off.

Not sure if you noticed, but you posted in the wrong thread. Just wanted to point that out to you in case you didn't realize it.

My Openelec 5.0.6 build for M8 built from Kerber Openelec (i have not tested it yet, try at own risk !!) https://www.dropbox.com/sh/u962pjgfl...AyEn-wrka?dl=0

Openelec 5.0.6 build from Codesnake Openelec failed to build 2 times, will try again later.

gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
make: *** [release] Error 2

How do I fix that?

Hi Codesnake,

i noticed you posted 5.0.6 on we tek forum, will we see it soon here for M8? I understand that you are sponsored by we tek and doing other builds in your free time but will be really pity if you give up on us ...
Also will you have time to look at stereoscopic 3d mode and airplay in one of your next builds, both not working on 5.0.3 and had it working smooth on 4.2.1 Gotham?
thanks
