keep it pressed until you see coreelec logo
Thanks,
I let go to early…
Got to the coreelec boot logo,
But it’s stuck at …zing file system / (Can’t read begining of text it’s outside of screen, comprezing?).
Have a Kingston DataTraveler Micro 3.1 stick, so shouldn’t be this slow. Has been sitting there for a couple of mins now… Can’t remember it was this slow on sd card’s.
EDIT: Got it up and working and DV/HDR seems to be working fine… However does anyone have any fast USB stick to recommend?
Samsung (Fitplus) 3tnica the 64gb ones there tiny but fast
Thx,
will order one. Everything is extremely laggy with the current one.
Can usb drive speed affect smb browsing speed? Browsing kodi menus seems fast enough, but browsing an smb is a bit slow. Also, I didn’t notice this on earlier versions of CE, 06-28 and earlier.
Edit: it was better today, didn’t notice lag in smb browsing
Sei is the proper one 
just as an update for others.
today i had to setup a dmz vlan for other reasons and before deleting it decided to make a google account and check if my box had an upgrade available.
it hast not. androidtv its stuck at version 11.8.4674 (which i guess is what it shipped with since android says its security patch level is from February 2023)
Do you guys know of and status update regarding the homatics firmware with fixed DV ?
I do a (edited) copy/paste from a Homatics Telegram channel, were I posted this info a wile ago.
There is a story to be told over the updates for the Homatics R Plus (not Dune). I got this info from my Homatics contact.
Not all updates are controlled by Homatics for the boxes, sometimes a distributor has a say on the update program. I still had one R Plus on V4674 and it did not get the update, Homatics said the update was pushed to all users (that are known to them). All my other R Plus boxes got it by OTA (I have a total of 5 from them).
I received a new R Plus box on last Tuesday and during setup, V5310 was pushed as update. So as it should be.
But my first box came from a Dutch shop, and I guess from a distributor, Homatics is speaking of, still no update for that one. So I requested a update on serial of the box and got it.
So if the box comes from a (big) distributor (not Homatics), it could take longer for the update to arrive.
thank you for your reply.
And really scary to read that hardware distributors have some sort of control over software.
Yet another reason i wont trust androidtv.
As soon as the firmware is upgraded ill reset atv before it gets back into my media vlan.
I cant even think of any good reason why anybody else beside android and the devs of homeatics should have any say in the software matter …
I followed the advice and emailed them my serial number. hopefully that helps.
Thank You Friend for the help, can You please help me with this doubt should the file NOKIA have the extension .cfg or .hwdb
Thank You Friend and have awesome weekend.
Found some bugs(maybe known already?)
Homatics is connected to receiver.
-
If power on(inserting power plug) the device will not send CEC signal to power on receiver/TV. If waiting to long to turn on TV a broken image will be displayed and need to reboot reinserting power plug.
-
Homatics box goes to sleep when turning of TV/reciver. However when turning on TV, box will not wakeup from standby.
Don’t think it’s possible to get any logs for this… With Android TV above is working.

No extension for the file NOKIA 
This aren’t bugs, it’s config items.
And connect the device directly to TV as AVR are known to cause CEC/EDID issues.
Don’t have the same problem with my Odroid N2+(never touched hdmi CEC config, so default settings).
Connecting directly to TV is not an option since LG C1 do not support DTS passthrough.
EDIT: Connected directly to TV. Box wakes up from standby, but kodi hangs after waking from standby. Need to reboot box to make coreelec work again. Seems to be a problem with remounting storage(why is storage unmounted?). Sometimes coreelec starts thinking it’s a new install, but mostly just hangs after a few button presses.
My all 3 Homatics boxes works well with LG C2 with CEC enabled. Don’t use sleep mode under CE.

Yes all CEC seems to be working for me now(disabled/enabled CEC on receiver).
Waking from sleep seems to be bugged though, switched cec config so box shutdown instead of sleeping when turning of TV/receiver(this is good enough for me).
You should/can tweak CEC settings from CoreELEC’s Settings → Input menu.
There are several settings in there which will let you configure the TV/AVR behavior for several scenarios (screen saver,device powering on or off,input change ,etc).
You can even set the CEC device physical address and sometime that is required when the device is connected thru AVR.
Personally CEC works pretty well for me on CoreELEC ,with the device connected thru the soundbar (which is connected to an LG G2 OLED TV).
Btw,sleep might cause issue with this device ,so i also recommend turning it OFF (never use it).

How many times should be written that suspend/resume IS NOT SUPPORTED. At least not officially.
If you want to use it you have to use partial install to eMMC as written few times above.
Or use extra script which handles remount (also written in my notes).
The reason for this remount is that USB is shutdown on suspend (reason unknown).

I agree,
have read the thread twice and it’s really long and easy to miss obvious things and search function is not that great TBH.
Also hard to know what information is outdated.
Regarding toothpick method, maybe good to add that continue holding button in when Fastboot is being displayed. Wasn’t that obvious that you should continue holding it in.
Oh I copied the text on Your post to a text file created with Notepad should I leave it like that ? like a text file (.txt). Sorry for asking You all this questions and thanks my Friend.
