Revert the process with the same kind of procedure, just find the script that does the opposite of expansion...

So, there should be a script in there: USB/mSD > flash (or similarly named).

I restart my STBs every day or at least every time I want to use them.... Usually, that works fine...

Where exactly did you fail? Did you do a full reboot after move?

Hi, I am new into this world. Having difficulty in recording and pause play in zgemma box H2S while using IPTV that I have installed M3U link.

Can I expand the nand flash in Zgemma H2S by using this method?

Can we load new skin (like Sly skin) on PurE2?

Thank you for your help in Advance

We do not have those boxes, sorry. And other skins are not covered. Besides, Estuary is really malleable and by far the best, AFAIC...

If you are recording, then it should go to an HDD/SSD or USB stick or mSD, if you have the slot for it. Set it up properly, in Device Manager and - good luck! Sorry, can't be of more assistance... I don't use IPTV "services".

Hi @Gorski,

I was using my SD in my box and it was working ok and got the expanded storage. I recently sold my box and now the SD card is only showing 30MB in windows instead of 32GB. I tried to format it through different sources but no luck.

Can you help me to recover the storage on my SD?

Has anyone been able to get it to work on Pur-e2 6.5?
Dusted off my h9s and wanted to give Pur-e2 6.5 a whirl but it lacks so much space. I've had success using the mover in the past with open atv but seems my several attempts at getting it to work on pure has failed. scripts runs, once i reboot the e2 it starts up and loads the PURE2 blue screen but nothing happens after that. I thought maybe it was just slow on first boot, let it sit overnight and never got anywhere.

They probably changed the partitioning system, hence a new script would be needed...

You have Twin and it doesn't need expanding, as it has 8GB flash and 4 native partitions....

Helo everybody, I have spent one hour in reading this discussion and finally I need some clarification (may be I lost something in the long story).

I have a H9.2HSE and my issue is that I cannot install KODI over OpenATV 7.0. This is why I'm here reading .... and postig ... :)

At first I have tried to run the flashexpander plugin but this seems to not recognise my 32Gb micro SD in the slot.
Now I'm here and I have downloaded your script in the first page and I have few question:

1) will this script solve the problem to install KODI ?
2) in th ZIP there are two scripts: one is in the root and one is in "h9-sdcard-mover" (the last one seems to have more recent bin). Which is the one to be used ?
3) if I do something wrong is there any possibility to brick the decoder ? Or the recovery is anyhow always possible ?
4) I have not understood how to revert to original situation. Or better: the "flash a new images" is clear but the install the nand bootargs dd if=/tmp/bootargs-nand.bin of=/dev/mtdblock1 ... is it sufficient to change this in the sh script and run it ?

Thanks for the assistance.

Kodi only can be installed, if a storage device with sufficient space is mountetd to /media/hdd, so that the system folder /media/hdd/.kodi can be created during the installation and setup. Also a swap with 2GB must be available on an extra storage. Maybe using an usb key with 32-64GB will help as storage device. Initialize it with the box, format in ext4 and mount it fixed to /media/hdd.
