what about warranty if I flash this custom firmware?

[futeko.com]

Any firmware we (username 'futeko') post on this forum will not invalidate your warranty.

Futeko, but this is not the Firmware Update of this week, you were talking of?

Futeko, but this is not the Firmware Update of this week, you were talking of?

no, this is based from 1.0.1.
New firmware is 1.0.3 beta status ( no public ).

Hi, how are you.
I understand that I can reinstall the original firmware after installing this .
Can I change the language to Spanish ?

Thank you. A great forum.

How  do  i install the a new firmware without loosing everything in Kodi for example , or Settings of Himedia ?

[Alter_Schwede62]

And the promised Firmware Update won't come this week?
I am asking, because the week soon is over...

A firmware reinstall will wipe everything on the box.

Kodi settings can be backed up using this addon: http://kodi.wiki/view/add-on:backup

HiMedia say official firmware release next week.

You can install any firmware over any other.

Yes you can use Spanish language with this custom firmware. Language support is the same as with official firmware.

BTW Futeko

I had very bad experience with this Firmware, and meanlwhile the Original is already installed after testing the othe for some hours.

1. Powerbar - as I wanted to switch off the Q10 Pro by the Powerbar, the Q10 Pro hang up. No reaction any more. Fini.
I had similar experiences on the X6 Pro with that power bar, that does not work 100%... to say it in calm words.

2. Kodi 16.1
Hung up by trying to end it by the Exit button for severy times (language installed: geman)

3. EX Explorer made an update, and from then on, ES Explorer started every time I started the Q10 Pro
After some hours suddenly my Fantec HDD Bay could not be found any more. Nothing, neither restarts of the Q10 Pro nor restarts of the Fantec and even disconnecting both from Power and plugging it to different USB ports had any effect. No USB HDDs any more. Finito.

And that was the point, where I took an USB Stick and installed the Original Firmware, installed Nova Launcher and everything is alright again. Never again.

After my about 7 hours experiences I absolutely cannot recommend this Custom Firmware.

Hello Alter_Schwede62

Thanks for feedback.

1 Powerbar, I think your refer to Power Menu(com.minix.power_selector), HiMedia FW don't support Android shutdown method so, is work like this:

Shutdown --> you are right, HiMedia box stack
Sleep -- Shutdown
Restart --> Restart

HiMedia need to make own Power/Reboot application working on his box.

2 Kodi bug, please use other Kodi version from mirrors.kodi, Kodi 16.1 build from kodi.tv have many other problems on this box, waitng new HiMedia FW and official Kodi 17 alpha2 for testing on Q10 Pro.

3 ES Explorer started every time I started the Q10 Pro, this is future of ES Explorer 4.x.x in all Android Box, unchecked "USB plugin message".

For all other how want to give a try of cosmetic FW please do install with restore button.
Installing  form menu o top of original HiMedia FW is not good idea  Kodi, Facebook, Netflix, Skype, maybe not work proper after this.

All feedback are welcome.
