    Can I use a usb instead of SD card?

    I believe so.. I used one and I am currently doing the update as I type, but I believe it needs to be formatted a certain way.  I cant recal what it needs to be, fat32 maybe?   would have to do aome back tracking to verify

    i downloaded and installed using the update software  the box froze on the erasing screen so i unplugged and restarted.  the box booted normally to my exsisting home screen.

    i retired the update and everything went smooth.  the box rebooted and loaded up to ,y exsisting home screen menu.  it did not reset my box.  all my apps and short cuts are there.

    question is, should it have reset my box completely no ,atter what?  is there anyway to tell that it is indeed updated?  i looked in the settings menu under More Info and it looked to be the 06052017 date   

     

    is there any other way to tell?

    The remote control you are using, it requires a USB dongle?

    Hay Justin apparently my reply didn't go through.  I thought I already replied. 

    I have 2 dongles connected. 1 is the original dongle that came with the 1800e unit and the second dongle is for my Mii remote.  

    I have tried removing all the dongles and it seems to make no difference.   

     

    Powering off into stand by mode, when box is on, shows red light 

    Power on from stand by mode and box light turns green, but tv is still blank black screen, and at this point the box seems frozen because the green light stays on and I cannot power it off unless it's unplugged.

    Hey Guys

    I just received this patch file yesterday.

    It should fix the Standby/Black Screen issue on the 1900AC/1800E using Android 5.1

    Please try it and let me know your feedback

     

    Thanks

    Justin

    Hay Justin. I installed the patch.  I used the unit for a few hours and then very  hesitantly put the box in stand by mode.   I'm sorry to say "at least in my personal experience" that the box did indeed go into stand by mode but I was NOT able to power on via the remote or the power button on the box.  HOWEVER, this time around there was no red light.   The green light turned red, once I selected "stand by" and then immedialty went back to green and the green light stayed on with the box in stand by mode.  I know the box went into standby mode because my tv lost the signal as if the unit was off   

     

    Will try try again tomorrow after work and see if I can repeat the process.  So at least for me anyways the patch at this point did not work.  Just wondering if anyone has had success or if they have experienced this.  

     

    Thanks.

    Is there any reason why this update makes the system unrooted?
    I don't recall other releases having root taken away.

    During the update process the bar got stuck about 1/2 way and the little android dude's ball stopped spinning.  So I unplugged it and tried again with success.  As for the rooting issue, I installed a third party app that requires the box to be rooted.  The app worked to my surprise from reading previous comments about it not being rooted.    Maybe it is still rooted and just requires a program to view the system?

    Just to be clear on the subject of installing the firmware update I wanted to ask about the steps.  

     

    1- download the file "update Mygica ATV1900AC 5.1 NONETFLIXHD 20161121.img file

    2. Place the file on a USB device and insert it the box's USB 

    Now this is where it gets foggy for me   

    3.  Where is the app updater?  Is this in the setting menu  or is the app updater in the apps list (which for some reason I can't seem to find) 

    Sorry for the crude steps but I'm on a phone and currently away from the box to upload screen shots of the "settings" menu I was referring too  which I think is the app updater.   Any info from anyone would be very much appreciated  

     

     

     

     

     

    this is the app I am referring to.  is this the update app I use?

    Ditto.  Will this work on the 1800e?  The original post is not clear on this, title of post includes 1800e, but no further mention of it.  Even the file name only refers to the 1900.

    FBN

    I have been watching this thread for a long time and I'm also looking for clarity on wether this firmware update will work on the 1800e.   Please let us all know.  I don't want to assume it will.
