I am trying to get 1 from seller but i dont think i can.. they say only sd card update. .. i flash that and all works but different rom to stock and i have red light now no blue light anymore..but rom looks like its working... i have new box coming just to see if its not hardware related... is there a way to get the factory img from new one when i comes in?

[fcp.08]

i do have a pic of the stock img that luckly i took before i did anything... does anyone know where this can be obtained ... seller is no help

pigbait I installed the packages mentioned here:

http://odroid.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=en:c1_building_kernel

After that I installed gcc-multilib.

Next I removed the entire git checkout (although make clean might have been enough), applied the previous mentioned patch and started the build over from scratch.

That did the trick for mee.
If you Like I could share my VM altough it's about 20GB...

fcp.08 thanks for sharing the rom, I'll have a look at it asap...

So you compiled a custom openelec or android OS?

[Spekkie]

sammaz, I compiled openelec from kszaq's git. But you can extract the device tree from a stock rom which might give information about the used WiFi chip and in which way it communicates with the SoC.

thanks allot for you help that fixed it.


for anyone with a black MXQ with a realtek 8189es wifi, I made a build that seems to have working wifi. if anyone want to test it out... kszaq work is by far better then mine so this is only till he gets back.

***you may need to set "wait for network before starting kodi" in openelec network settings i set mine to 30sec***

[jjbull]

This has been running great on my boxes but one of them gets stuck on the openelec splash screen, anyone had this and any idea how to fix it

Sorry for a noobish question, I only have 2 S805 devices I need to upgrade: they are regular first version, one MK808B Plus and one MXQ S85 from Beelink. I have installed Superceleron ROM on both and now I have to make two SDcard OE install on two microSDHC. I only need 3 files or what ? Bootloader for double boot maybe ?
Pls come back asap! Thank You
Alessandro

NVM! I am enjoing the beautifullness ! On Mk808b+.
Tomorrow will do it on MXQ
Thanks to all You involved !
