🛠️ Updating Operating System

To update your Chainlabs system:

1. On the main screen, scroll right and click on "Tools".
2. Scroll down and click "Update Operating System"
   ❗ (Not to be confused with "Update Programs" — that is for individual add-ons.)

   • 1. Chainlab BuildX Checker – Checks if you're on the latest version. A status message appears in the lower right.
   • 2. Chainlab Downloader – Downloads the newest Chainlabs operating system build.
   • 3. {Install} Chainlabs – Applies the downloaded update.

✅ Steps to update properly:

2. If an update is available, run Downloader and wait for it to complete.
3. Once done, go to {Install} Chainlabs, click on My_builds > Chainlab.zip, and start the update.
4. Let the process run its course.
5. When prompted to force-close Kodi, do so manually and restart your device.

🔄 Updating Programs

To update all add-ons and provider applications:

1. From the main screen, scroll right and click on "Tools".
2. Then click on "Update Programs".
3. ⚙️ This action will force-check all installed add-ons and provider apps, making sure you're running the latest versions available.
4. ✅ Updates happen in the background, and no input is needed. If any add-on fails to update, a notice will appear — simply restart your device and the system will try again automatically.

🧰 Stuck on "Waiting for PVR" on Chainlabs splash screen?

If your screen gets stuck showing "Waiting for PVR", just press the Back button on your remote.

🔹 This issue is rare, but harmless.

🛠️ Why does this happen?

After a major operating system update, changes to the system environment can briefly delay the PVR loading process.

Also:
If you recently made changes and now experience bugs or missing functionality, simply re-download and install the latest Chainlabs build to restore everything.
