Thanks for the share.

I thought I read somewhere here that eMMC and A14 are incompatible.

Did you install in Dualboot mode?

I like the idea of dual boot as the firmware updates seem to be important to CoreELEC NO operation at the moment, unless I am mistaken.

Installing to internal storage is very dangerous and often impossible. Use a good, fast USB flash drive, such as the Samsung Fit; it’s difficult to notice a significant difference.

Coreelec runs parallel to Android, it doesn’t need its files, it loads its own Linux distribution

To read between the lines, you don’t use the dual boot option?

136

Well, I think this is valid for older SoC version. S5 and higher needs data from Android vendor partition if I’m not mistaken. Maybe userdata partition could be reformated to EXT4 and used for CE storage partition. But no one knows if this would “hurt” device in any way and no one is willing to risk!

This only happened if we completely replace Android on the eMMC, right?

If we run a dual-boot setup, then the CE system is also on the eMMC alongside the Android system. In that case, CE should still be able to access the vendor files, correct?
Doesn’t this risk only exist if Android is no longer on the eMMC??

There is no dual-boot possible because userdata partition is encrypted.

I don’t understand why many people want to use eMMC. It increases speed, but the lifespan of the internal storage is limited. In this case, you’ll have to buy a new USB drive, which isn’t so bad compared to the risk of damaging the device during the installation of the system on the eMMC and shortening its lifespan.

To actually use it if already there.

143

I agree, it saves money. A good USB flash drive isn’t cheap.

144

there are a number of things people do that i don’t understand
use windows
buy iphones
tell other people what they should or should not do with their own hardware on internet forums

I’ve come to a point where as long as it doesn’t affect me then people can do whatever they want.
Perhaps you could work towards adopting this?

145

Yes, I am not against it and I agree that everyone decides for themselves how to act.

Greetings,

I’m running the latest Coreelec for my AM9 Pro. I cannot mount any usb drives to any of the usb ports.

when i disconnect the usb cable from the port, I see the drives dismount. I checked file manager, media and no usb connected drives show up.

when I open into android, I see the drives in the system menu. My drives are powered using C usb cable and connect to my AM6B+, Vero V and Dune HD pro one 8K without any problems.

can anyone help?

147

I’m also using the AM9 Pro CE NO version, but I haven’t had any issues with the USB driver. All my videos play through the USB driver.

148

what skin are you using?

149

ı’m using Estuary Mod V2

150

can you give the exact CE NO file name you are using? There so many of the CE out I might be using the wrong one

well my friend, I’m not sure how you got your USB drives to show up in Kodi.I have re-installed the nightly build using the rite img file, still no joy.

I have read that there is issues with the coreelec alpha. Suggestions are using an older FW 2.0.6 for the AM9 Pro android, but this isn’t a way to go for me since you can brisk your unit.

I really hope the Dev’s here are reading this post and look into unlocking the issue. Thanks agin for your help thou. I spent 2 whole days trying to get coreelec to reconize the USB drives.
