There is a Dual Boot problem that needs to be fixed by the support company

There is a big problem with the boot of the Qviart Dual device, and it must be fixed by the supporting company:


I've noticed that when the Enigma 2 image freezes on boot, the device constantly boots to the same corrupted Enigma 2 image.

We are forced to "Update" the Android 9 partition in order to be able to boot to another intact Enigma 2 image.

Therefore, activating the “Update” option from the front screen of the device, and this option causes the Android 9 partition to be completely reset, i.e. Reset all

Thus, the manufacturer of the Qviart Dual receiver must add the “Boot to recovery” option in the “fastboot” menu options of the device.



This is in order to access the Android 9 part or usable parts of the Enigma 2 images according to our choice.

It seems very few (if anybody) is aware of this, so I thought I would share the info.

If you power the box off at the rear and then on again (or shutdown / restart the box), when the display shows boot you have a few options.

As soon as boot is displayed (not before):

Repeatedly pressing OK on the remote control will boot recovery mode, you know it has worked when the display changes to RECO (although it looks more like AECO), from here you can boot any slot (provided the slot is not corrupted), reflash any slot (via network or usb) or boot Android. Sometimes it takes a few attempts, if you start pressing before "boot" shows then it seems not to work and if you start pressing too late, again it doesn't seem to work.

Repeatedly pressing 0 on the remote control will boot Android.

Repeatedly pressing 1 on the remote control will boot Enigma2 slot 1.

Repeatedly pressing 2 on the remote control will boot Enigma2 slot 2.

Repeatedly pressing 3 on the remote control will boot Enigma2 slot 3.

Repeatedly pressing 4 on the remote control will boot Enigma2 slot 4.


Also worth noting, that if the Android image becomes corrupted (bootloop), then you have to restore the Android image, starting with the factory image (currently 5.0) then updating to 1.0.4 (special) and then 1.0.6 assuming you wish to use the PT firmware.

However when you have to recover android, only Enigma2 Slot 1 will then boot, slots 2,3,4 will all need to be flashed again, so it's a good idea to make regular full backups of all enigma2 slots, and I would suggest it's better to keep your most used (favourite) image in Slot 1, as there is less chance of loosing this slot if Android gets into a bootloop (although it can still happen).

Anyway hope this info is of use to some of you with this box.

thanks
