These are for S82 / MXIII devices only. They are not for ANY other model.

It may be compatible with devices from other manufacturers, but we can not take responsibility for any damage done. You are welcome to try, however if your box does not boot up, it will be your responsibility.

Do not flash these files if you do not know which device you have.

IMG FILE, USB CABLE AND A WINDOWS PC

You will need a microUSB lead.

Download https://1drv.ms/u/s!AlRdlhGu3fjihykxvFqaQz9Qg7vV . It will be one IMG file (S82_DBX_Kodi_FTMC_MYgica_10052017.img), that should not be clicked on, we'll use it later. If you see an error message on your PC about the image being corrupt, please close the program, the file is needed for use on the DroidBOX, rather than the PC.

Next download https://1drv.ms/u/s!AlRdlhGu3fjihlzEyu3q1CpaXNUm and open it. You will be asked if you want to install Amlogic's USB Burning tool - you do.

The first time you open it, click the second menu and select English.

Now take the USB lead and connect it to your PC. Turn off your S82, and find a sturdy cocktail stick/toothpick. Put this carefully into the AV socket of your DroidBOX. You should be able to feel initial resistance, and then a button being depressed. Keep your stick/pick in place for some time to come.

Connect the USB cable to the microUSB socket (marked as OTG) on the S82. Now power up your DroidBox device.

Keep the recessed switch held down for a good 15/20 seconds, and let Windows automatically install the drivers it needs.

Holding down the switch with the stick still, turn on your S82. DO NOT LET GO OF THE COCKTAIL STICK/PAPERCLIP YET.

Back in the USB Burning Tool program, click on the "File" menu and click "Import image". Navigate to your Downloads folder and select the "TO COME" file that was downloaded from the first link.

You'll need to wait a moment whilst it analyzes the file. You should find it automatically ticks the "Erase Flash" and "Erase Bootloader" boxes for you. If "Overwrite Key" is ticked, please remove the tick.

Now click the "Start" button please.

Once the process is complete and reported as successful, you can click the "Stop" button, and disconnect the USB cable. The first time you boot the S82, it will take a little longer than usual, this is normal. Once you can see the launcher's homescreen, please leave the device alone for 20 minutes whilst it re-installs the applications.

Applications continue to install in the background and if interrupted will not resume the next time you boot up.

FTMC and Mygica are included.
