Stuck During Installation

Help!

In an attempt to fix my HDMI issue I have tried to do a fresh install of the "stable" Gotham build on my M8 box, however I am now getting stuck during the installation process.

I am left with a static Android Updating splash screen...

Sorry, I didn't mean to say stable. I have definitely flashed the M8 ROM from the first post.

It's not working, and now nothing else will flash either! I can still enter stock recovery, but nothing will flash fully. Everything gets stuck half way through.

How do you think someone will answer your questions, if you even haven't pointed what USB IR remote you tried to use?

[ShadowChaser]

I use FLIRC in combination with a Harmony remote.... But FLIRC works with any remote btw. You can program FLIRC by assigning button presses to eg keyboard keys....
works flawlessly with me, no hassle with keyboard nasporing files in xbmc.....

Have you not notice the coming soon under the S805 section of the quoted message you just posted... If he had a build he wouldn't be holding it off... Asking won't help get it any faster

And you dont have to be rude just because I asked...

I have seen many times where you have been waiting for ROM for a while and expressed your interest in the forums...

I didn't test the OpenELEC on that box, so I cannot tell you for sure.

Hi Codesnake.

Love this rom.

Only issue is that your latest Betas for m8 don't have wifi capability. Any easy solution to enable it?

also i have the s77 pro remote any chance of integrating that?
