Hi Beelink,
Are you kidding with this crappy device? It's not serious selling a device which is beta (or even alpha) version. Pick up a 100 users, give them devices, start paying for testing and release the stable, end user version.
My device with the latest firmware keep restarting all the time. It's working fine ("fine" - basic, limited functionality) only after USB firmware (ver. 106) update until the first crash and then continuously restarting.

What are you using the box for? Do you use it for games or for kodi?

Mine runs hot when using it for games, but if I use it for Kodi it runs more or less okay.  (Okay I did remove the kodi that followed the box and installed Kodi 17 beta (and have spmc installed as a 2nd mediastation, just in case kodi fails)

Thanks Flint for your advice. I'm on Beelink GT1 S912 (2G RAM, 16G ROM) with this fancy M2S touch/keyboard, firmware 106M0. I agree that these symptoms look like an overheating issue. The box is just noticeably warm, no gaming just (theoretically :( ) movies (no 3D, hd max), music, light to medium CPU usage. I'll try to reinstall Kodi, will see. Pure frustrating experience so far, no joy just trials, reflashing, etc.. I'm angry at myself that I spent any money on it and sooo much wasted time.

Hello, I'm sorry for causing your unhappy experience, if it is 106 firmware problem, I suggest you back to 104: http://www.bee-link.com/forum.ph ... &extra=#pid1082

That isn't really a solution beelink going back to an old firmware that doesn't work. We need a new firmware that fixes some major problems with this crappy box

Really Beelink! How about some new firmware, very poor suggestion to roll back to firmware that had its own problems
