Post by: Eric on April 22, 2016, 09:04:48 AM

Hi all,

After a factory reset, all pre-install applications disapear (also Kodi).

Thanks in advance,

Eric.

Definitely recommended to reinstall firmware.

There may be hidden HiMedia system apps which you'll lose if you factory reset then try and manually install apks.

Thanks, I reinstall the firmware and all is working.

Just another thing, I try to upload files on the HDD,  is it possible by USB ? I don"t find how we can do that.

You can use the pre-installed File Manager app. Go My Apps - File Manager.

From there navigate to the file / directory you want to copy and press remote menu key. Choose Operation - Copy - OK.

Then back out, navigate to the destination for the file, press menu key and choose Operation - Paste - OK.

Or install ES File Explorer from Play Store. It's free and is a much better file manager than the pre-installed one.

First, thank you for you fast answer.

I think I am not clear.

I put a HDD in the Q10 Pro and I want to connect my laptop to the Q10Pro to upload file from my laptop to the HHD of the Q10 Pro.

In File Browser I can see C and D drive, but when I connect the laptop to the Box, the D drive disapear.

My question is how can I connect my laptop to the Q10 Pro to upload files from the laptop to the Box.

You'll need a USB A-B cable. It's the same cable used to connect printers / scanners.

With the Q10 Pro turned off connect the USB A-B cable between the USB 3.0 slave port on the back of Q10 Pro to a USB port on your laptop.

Turn the Q10 Pro on and you should find that the Q10 Pro internal HDD is visible on your laptop as an external USB HDD.
