Need to install XBMC to G-Box Midnight MX2
#1
Video 
Unfortunately, I made a mistake by doing a factory reset on my G-Box Midnight MX2. Now I am without XBMC on my box. I need help figuring out how to install XBMC as an apk file to my flash drive so that I can then plug the flash drive into my box and get XBMC back on it. I don't really know what an apk file is but from everything I have read and videos I have watched, that seems to be what I need to do....I am not very technologically savvy so I do apologize if this seems like a silly question.. any help would be GREATLY appreciated. thanks

What firmware are you running? If on 1.1.6 do this:

download xbmc from xbmc.org, choose the android arm version
put on thumb drive, connect to mx2
start filebrowser on mx2
browse to thumbdrive
choose the xbmc.apk to open, you can install it now

if not on 1.1.6, but older, got to matricom site to download 1.1.6 firmware and install as per instruction

if not on 1.1.6 but newer, you are on beta firmware, head to matricom forum to install gapps. Then:

go to playstore and find a filebrowser, install it. Then follow the 1.1.6 procedure.
