Anyway, the upgrade wasn't smooth as it stopped half way through and I had to pull the power and reboot the box. The box came back up again and finished the upgrade without any further issues. I also had the same issue when applying the Root patch. So far so good, no problems at all with 5.1 and not getting the black screen issue when waking it up from standby. Good job MyGica! FBN Looks like I now have the standby black screen issue on my 1800e.... Was working fine before, but now it is not. Hopefully will be a fix for this soon..... MyGica fix this and all should be good.

ketchabob 2 Report post Posted March 20, 2017 Okay! Thanks for the info! I am thinking I'll just wait and hopefully MyGica will put out a stable System update for the 1800e. It is running fine @ 4.4 and Jarvis 16.0. I don't want to mess up my box! Please keep me informed! Thanks again for the info! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I have 2 1800e's that are working just fine. I really hope this issue can be fixed and a stable firmware release will be sent out soon. Don't get me wrong, I am very thankful that this is being worked on. I just don't want to mess up my 1800e's with this firmware. Looking forward to another firmware release.

ketchabob 2 Report post Posted March 21, 2017 Thank you for the info! I have a 1800e running Jarvis 16.0 and KitKat 4.4 , everything working great! I am waiting for a stable Auto System update. Hopefully My Gica will release one in the near future for 5.1 so I don't have to go through all the problems associated with the last release. I hope someone will let me know when this happens. I am very happy with the box and thankful for the work being done! I have only had the box 2 years (pd. $200) so I hope a fix is released soon. Thanks again! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This happened ever since i upgraded my android 4.4 to 5.1 lollipop. I dowloaded your recommended upgrades, works good but I have to leave power on at all the time. I forgot I am using the 1800 unit not the 1900 Werner Edited March 22, 2017 by werner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 update_Mygica_ATV1900AC_5.1_nonetflixHD_bootpatch.img Hey Justin I've installed 5.1 and this bootpatch on my 1800E and here are some of the problems I'm still having. My unit freezes sometimes when I try to put it in standby mode. When using the KR301 remote, sometimes when I hit the down cursor it boots google play. When I use the RF remote in kodi 16.1 hitting back acts as if I hit it twice and sometimes boots me out of kodi. Tried to put kodi 17 on my 1800E but the Passthrough doesn't work. The audio just cuts in and out and freezes the video even, no matter how I adjust all other audio settings in kodi. Box is set to HDMI Passthrough. Hope this helps.

I recently upgraded from 4.4 on my 582 to 5.0 but did not realise there was 5.1 now I am struggling to get 5.1 to be recognised when I try to load it..? In 5.0 the playstore will not load and I get an error message so cannot update to Kodi 17 Starting to get really frustrated as I am not pc literate so find this a bit overwhelming.

Justin, is thee any update to the MAC address changing on these devices after the update? Thanks. xbian and openelec are linux based, so would explain why no issues for you there. I was only referring to passthrough issues on the Android version of Kodi. And I do not have an update for mac address changing right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Justin, There are too many issues to stop development on Android 5.1 for the 1900 and the 1800 MyGica boxes. We want to be able to continue using these boxes with the latest version of Kodi. Right now, I'm running 4.4 KitKat with Kodi 16.1, but I've been patiently waiting until all of the issues have been resolved with your developers so that we can upgrade to Android 5.x. I'm really hoping that you will work with your developers to address all of the issues that you have received via the feedback from your community. Otherwise, we may have to leave the MyGica family of products due to obsolescence. That is not something that I want to do, but if I'm forced to I will.
