Kinhank G1

For users that buy new Kinhank G1 boxes DO NOT POWER ON THE BOX BEFORE READING THIS. YOU FIRST HAVE TO UPDATE THE BOX. After installing this update to your G1 you are all set to use Coreelec. Be aware that you will not get any help and support from CoreElec team because they dropped the development for Kinhank devices.

Instruction for installing Firmware update by @hungphutho:

Install “V3_setup_V3.2.8.exe” on a Win PC
Load “dv8910-hungphutho-v1.img” to Burning Tool
UNCHECK “Verify Bootloader” BOX !!!
Connect G1 with USB_A to USB_A cable to PC (use 2nd USB port away from uSD card port)
Press and hold Reset button and apply power to G1.
(Flashing should start now. If it does not, disconnect box and close Burn Tool. Repeat
the procedure until it starts flashing. I had to do it twice before it started flashing)
After it flashes for about 5-10 seconds release Reset button.
When flashing finishes close Burn Tool.
RUN “flash.bat” file…
