Not sure what to try now. Probably just get a refund but would like to avoid trying to get one from Gearbest if possible.

Install phoenix card. Get 16gb or 32gb class 10 sd card for fastest speed. In phoenix card choose rom. Check startup instead of product. Product is supposed to create sd that flashes box automatically. Also fails to flash. Startup option creates bootable sd. Box runs quite well off sd and I have 29 gb internal space for apps..lol.. I used superceleron rom in sticky. First boot is longest due to setup . After take 1min30 to boot with a few apps installed. Once flashed sd is in just turn on box with remote and wait for setup and box to reach main screen.

It's a Xmas present so need to try to find another box to order now that might be more reliable. Appreciate the help anyway. Cheers

Allyall wrote: » Did you try this? I've one of these arriving tomorrow for my Mothers neighbour. I'll be doing the same, So I'm sure I'll have the same issues. I'll be trying all of them anyway, because unlike some, I'm not a fan of the OTA updates, not without an option anyway. That said, whatever is causing the issue, I'm sure they'll release a fix pretty quick. That box has been heavily supported by Trigtop and the other guy since it was released.
