NEO X8-H Plus Lollipop OS FW: [20170612]

I did everthing including file installation in #60 but failed.

Windows's detected and seen the box but the "USB Burning Tool" has not connected.

Please remember the Forum Rules ! ;)

"Don't ask for releases dates! Firmwares or updates or bug fixes will be released only when ready. All posts asking for ETA will be deleted without comments."
 
so delete it ;):sneaky:
i do recall a post from minix on the old forum though that said there would no further release.....
I also recall MINIX stating that on the old forum. A number of things have changed since the old forum, perhaps MINIX may reconsider some of the past decisions ?:unsure:
We are just getting going here on the new forum , so it's just a friendly reminder about the rules:)
 
so I've managed to get the rom installed. but no sound in youtube, netflix or other app. The system sound (phone ring) works strangely
edit: after reboot, sound works!

ps: in developer mode I disabled the usb audio routing

Got latest FW installed but having trouble getting it to work with Google TV Remote or Android TV remote as I prefer these, I have the air remote that comes with device but cursor sticks to side of screen. Also tried to manually add by IP address (Google remote) but no joy. Also an issue with wireless, in that I have to choose to connect each time.

Anyone have the same issue with remote?

Might just roll back to previous version...
 
When i flashed my minix box X8 H Plus with the lolipop update an after starting my device it keeps booting up and never stops loading. Just like it is stuck in a loop.

I used the X8H_Plus_LOLLIPOP_RC2 firmware

When i am in my device after long first boot the device turns back after several minutes to bootmode and starts booting the device over over again very frustrating. I already flashed my device
2 times but the problem keeps comming back.

Please support, thank jou
Greetings, Ricardo
 
Hi, I'm following as per instructions the video above, but unable to get a connection using the USB Burning Tool v2.09. Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong? All is plugged in, I hold down the reset pin and power button for more than 6 seconds, but nothing.

*** Ignore. I successfully upgrade using the SDCARD method. *** Thank you.

How to i update my minix neo x8 h plus to lollipop firmware? I have watched the video numerous times. I downloaded the usb burning tool (both 2.0.9 & 2.16), downloaded both files as above and nothing i try seems to work even though i've tried to copy exactly what the guy in the video has done. It said something about world cup driver being ready.

Ive tried connecting my device using the otg cable and doing the recovery method but nothing seems to connect to the usb burning tool and nothing seems to load when i click on add image file, it just loads something up which says checking file might take a while due to size then it just sort of disappears. I dont know if its attached or not. Could anyone point me in the right direction with this. ie step by step (use this program to unzip file/extract to wherever, then load this program and attach this file ect as im not overly technical with computers but do try haha)

Thank you in advance

read through the the thread >> and see here https://theminixforum.com/index.php...oid-lollipop-os-firmware-20170612.45/post-652

ref world cup driver .... when installing the burning tool there is a stage where it installs these drivers...if you didnt see it uninstall and then reinstall the usb burn tool and make sure the drivers are installed

when you load the image file you know if is loaded as you see the file name at the botton of the usb burning tool screen, you will not be able to burn it untill you get a connect ( as per video)

I tried for a couple of days to update the firmware using the usb cable method but the usb burning tool did not detect the minix, .... and i pressed reset and power buttons in all imaginable combinations. Frustrations and anger!!!
Then i used the SDCARD method and bingo it worked first time like magic

All that remained was for teenage son to install the latest repositories and the minix working like a charm.
Thanks to other forum members for the help.
