Biatsch:

Can I assume that your bootcard will work with the ATV520 as well?

tinker


RE: [HOW TO] XBMC Linux on Geniatech Devices - Biatsch - 2014-03-18

Yep will work


RE: [HOW TO] XBMC Linux on Geniatech Devices - AuXBoX - 2014-03-18

I've added the Unofficial Jynxbox M6 XBMC Pure Linux version with the revert solution from Biatsch


RE: [HOW TO] XBMC Linux on Geniatech Devices - tinker - 2014-03-18

AuXBoX:

Did you test Biatsch's revert solution? Would be nice to have a second opinion before I test it too.

tinker


RE: [HOW TO] XBMC Linux on Geniatech Devices - Biatsch - 2014-03-18

I tested it twice

Biatsch & AuXBoX:

Nope, couldn't revert to Android using your latest SD boot card. When I ran uboot_MX.cmd (on a Windows XP machine), I was given an error message. Here is the output of dd.exe:

put the sdcard in your box with recovery start forgot to cancel uboot.cmd.......... u dont Need that exe important to work are the files

iam cancelling the files u dont Need within zip Wink sorry forgot to delete them .... ;( Wink within description ,too LOL (used geniatech bootcard as base) will be fixed.......... just put the files on sd and boot via recovery and wait .............. after that........... when Android booted up ....... cancel all files on sd and copy the ones from spi revert and bootup in recovery...... Flash spi and all is done !!!!!
SORRY FOR WRONG DESCRIPTION !!!!! Big Grin

Biatsch:

Should I just re-download the .zip from your link above or will you re-post it?

Also, should I try to revert without the Android image file, then use the recovery menu to update it?

u can use the one u downloaded just put all files in root of sd , start ur box with toothpin and wait until Flash procedure is finished ... (Android is booted)
(than download spi revert and copy content to sd) boot via toothpin and Flash spi ......... all done

u can redownload revert but u dont have to ..... some files are deleted and description is changed ....... so nothing important for flashing
