I compared the contents of the two firmwares and only encounter these changes:
- They must have updated the xbmc (I think it's a version of 21 February) and they've got a version with more addons.
- They have removed several preinstalled applications: com.cntv.live2, wifi.analyzer, iptv, mediacenter, vooleplay ...
- They have removed something called airplay (avahi, sftp, ssh)
- They have removed several files web browser settings and android settings.

How could the file size grows that much with so removed apps and files?....

Could the xbmc Addons be responsible for that grow? Or they added something else?

Some kernel or drivers changes? (I don't know the android file structure to recognize by my self...)

By email, geniatech support have told me that they are intended to add drivers for theirs Turners USB sticks (satellite, cable TV...)
Could them be already added?

Ricardo.

I'm no expert on android structure, but I downloaded the 2 firmwares and comparing them I have seen no change in the kernel or anywhere significant.

The firmware size increases greatly because they have changed xbmc version and maybe they forgot to clean temporary files or auxiliary files of some addons.

But there is no substantial change.
