Hello,
I have tried to install the Gotham version (first option of first page) in my ATV1200, however when I release the reset button after the 10 or 15 seconds the unit enters in the recovery menu and waits there, it does not update as expected. I am running now the last android version from geniatech. Any help?
Thanks and congratulations for this impressive job.
Javier

Yep Dippa I did say you may have to first revert to Android 4.1 using one of the revert compiles referred to frequently in this forum thread. Anyhow I see AuxBox has kindly come to your aid already so good luck with it and let us all know how you got on. I will leave that Linux Frodo 12.3 build available on my Dropbox link for now in case others want it too, though I must point out it is not my compile or build of course as that is currently beyond me.. Not sure whose compile it was maybe AuxBox, but whoever many thanks to them for what I think is one of the best Linux Frodo builds.
Maybe soon Frodo 12.3 will no longer be needed as they may crack this frustrating Broadcom compatibility issue so we can use Gotham on the ATV520 boxes with WiFi. I am sure they are still working on this as the build expert folks like cronicory are to me complete gods..

Anything new about CVBS?
I should receive brand new device today.
When I got it, I will try to post my MTD layout and all necessary information.
Please let me know how to flash it one more time. Id like to avoid another brick.
Thank you in advance guys!

Good news Dippa, but unless you are female and very sexy you can forget the kisses LOL That original Frodo 12.3 build I sent you earlier should now be just the ticket mate.
Belliash, so sorry mate but I just have not had the time to look into this yet. Not a quick job as it will need me digging up my old CRT TV and setting it up etc. Also what with my son being over here on holiday (now returned to UK) and playing catch up ever since, there has just not been the time to devote to it.
If you are flashing from Android to Linux Frodo 13.1 or 13.2 then just follow the readme instructions in the zip file with the compile. Should be very straight forward, just ensure that power stays on whilst the process is taking place and be patient as you may well see a blank screen for a few minutes. If you power it off then you will likely get a bricked box. For more in depth help and guidance you should speak with folk here like AuxBox or Bobones or the likes. Let me know if you get it all working to your CRT now you have the new box anyway, as that will save me digging the old TV up etc.of course.
