Hi Guys! I'm currently on Custom Firmware 2.0.4 and wanted to give this official firmware a try. Can I just reflash 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 like the look and features of the custom firmware but the alert sound on startup surprises me all the time especially when I have the volume turned up. Cheers!!

If you have 2.0.4 installed (either official or custom) then yes you can reflash other 2.0.4. No need to downgrade. Use the restore button method.

The opening post of this thread has been updated to reflect new HiMedia's new Android 5.1 to Android 7 update files.

The new downloads make it much easier to upgrade an Android 5.1 Q5 Pro to Android 7 (firmware version 2.0.4).

Although the build numbers are different for the two downloads, the firmwares are identical. The new Android 7 > Android 7 download contains exactly the same firmware as the previous version, only the instructions are changed.

From FAQ: * Stop Kodi 17 new remote message and disabled back / menu buttons? In Kodi, go Add-ons / My add-ons / Peripheral libraries / Joystick Support / Disable

We had another user report that he couldn't log into Play Store yesterday but I see no problems here. What country are you in? What exactly do you see on screen when login fails?

Run Kodi.

From main menu: Select My add-ons, then Peripheral libraries, then Joystick Support. Disable it.

that is normal, because of using a external Player (not the kodi Player)
