If I uninstall the current Kodi, and install other version of Kodi, will the wrapper still work?

I think it should work. The wrapped can even work in SPMC (the Android fork of Kodi). It is a setting that is done at system level.

I guess as long as it installs the playercorefactory.xml file in the same path as the preinstalled KODI. As far as I know all that the Wrapper does is that it modifies the playercorefactory.xml file to call the external HiMediaPlayer. Or correct me if I'm wrong.

Works but very unstable, I am looking forward to a stable running version 17 on Q10...Where I will not have to wonder if the DTS sound works or not.

Hi All,

I'm glad these devices have excellent support from the community! I've read several pages but could't find an answer to my question. I have currently installed the official 2.0.4 FUTEKO. HMD-2.0.4 2017-07-07.110752, but I want to install this custom release. Can I flash it (2.0.4) directly over the current one I have?

Thanks in advance and keep up the good work!

If you upgraded to official 2.0.4 by going through 2.0.3, yes, you can flash CFW (pcristi's firmware).

What brainpan came up with this horrible default GUI for the Q10?

I mean, one plus to add apps would suffice would you not agree?

Sure as a default template, but give us the option to edit as people would like.

I have two plus signs including my apps that do exactly the same thing.

And get rid of facebook, skype and chrome. those that want these features should let them add them as options.

Is there a clean gui even if its modded or custom?

I have alot of experience with different brands and mediaboxes and the Q10 has potential, but with lacking features like custom screen size, zoom, custom aspect ratio and a better thought out remote control there are better alternitives to Q10 and Q5. sure they are abit slower but have more features and a way better gui!

Cheers!

Hi Guys!

Q5 Pro owner here on Custom Firmware 2.0.4 and I really like the look and features of this custom firmware but the alert sound on startup surprises me all the time especially when I have the volume turned up. Lol. If I wanted to give the official 2.0.4 a try, can I just reflash via usb the official 2.0.4 firmware on top of Custom Firmware 2.0.4 or do I need to downgrade to an older firmware first before applying the Offical 2.0.4 firmware?  I had come from Offical 2.0.1 then 2.0.3 then CS 2.0.4 Cheers and thanks in advance! Keep up the excellent work guys! Loving this box!!

Does anyone else have power off issues with cfw 2.0.4?

They seem to be random every other day.
