Mecool M8S PRO L 4K TV Box Amlogic S912 Bluetooth 4.1 + HS

[P.X]

Is the latest Firmware compatible with the old Boxes? Can I upgrade direct from the November release?And why the older Firmware´s not shown on the MEcool Webpage?
Thanks.

What page are you looking at ?

The only almost official MeCool site I can find has only older FW !

Anyone know if there's a support email or a way I can get in touch with product/development for this box?

Looking to report some bugs.

VideoStrong are the developers ...

What page are you looking at ?

I meant the new Firmwares from 2018. Not older. My mistake.
I was on the Page.
Has anyone already tested the new on the LQ revision box?
If only the wifi module is not working that's ok for me.
Too bad that it seems only Stock firmware for new boxes.

I'm curious what are the benefits of the custom ROMs?

As best as I can tell, there seem to be only 2, and both are updated less frequently than stock.

Stock doesn't seem that bad either, just one or two crapware...

I was quite happy using the v09xx OEM FW as supplied, but then found some newer videos, h265, wouldn't play (jerky pixellated smeary rubbish). Loaded latest v09xx Magendanz ATV ROM and all good, playing smoothly.

No idea if he will be doing a new v02xx update? May need the relevent HW if there has been a change ....
He has previously updated his versions very quickly after the source FW became available to him to build on.

I have always found the Magendanz ROMs to be better than the supplied OEM that they were based on.

Yes, someone just brought this new OEM firmware release to my attention today. I should have an update over the weekend.

Just for reference, I created a couple of Amlogic burn packages for these two new OEM firmware releases:

Just to confirm, these are for the original "L" boxes? It won't lose the voice control?

This is just the TWRP backup packaged as an .img file, using the original bootloader and dtb images. The second is that same 20180316.143701.V0213 OEM image with the 20180417.150752.V0213 incremental update applied, which patched the boot and system partitions. It boots on my original M8S Pro L, but I can't get past the voice remote pairing screen because I don't have one of the new remotes.

Guest to bypass the bluetooth remote part, of the first setup you can pair your phone, many users have reported doing that, Im not sure if they downloaded the remote app first or just paired by bluetooth... they say that the box is looking for BT devices wen you are on that screen
