Thanks, I'll try.

Just a question: once the boot SD card is in the box and I'll shut on it, how I could choose between both systems?

Do you know which RAM/VARIANT (4G rev. A or 4G rev. B) I should choose when downloading from CoreElec web? How can I determine it in my box?

Thanks again.

Did you mean copying and renaming dtb.img file at root of SD card? Yes, I did. And nothing happen...

But how do you choose booting CoreElec and not Android? It's not necessary to do something at box?

Thanks for your help!

You can try to press and hold the button in the reset hole at the bottom of the machine after inserting the tf card, and then plug in the power to turn on, or insert the tf card to enter the Android system, long-press the power button of the remote control to select the system on the tf card

But pressing the reset button I will not reset the Android box???

I'd like to keep my Android box like it is now, and sometimes booting with CoreElec to use Kodi, but not loosing my Android configuration.

Thanks.
