    Hi all,


    I need your help. I have a bit of trouble with booting with my sd card, when I pressed the upgrade button on the back of the wetek play 2 for 7 seconds, it will take me to go to recovery mode so it won't boot. I've checked on the sd card on the file manager and it can read the sd card with no problem.


    How do you get the openelec to boot when you press on the upgrade button?


    Are there anything that I might have miss something?


    What I did is I have copied the files of .zip, .alm and img from the zip file that I downloaded and I've pasted them onto my sd card.


    Any advice would be much appreciated.


    Thanks in advance.
