  • Lots of times simply RESETTING your box back to FACTORY defaults will get you up and running again. When you do need up load Firmware, here are a few things to be careful of.

    Hi, i have x88 pro 13 ultra hd 8k, after restarting it, it always needs to get factory reset after restarting. Can you explain how to solve this problem? Thanks!

    I tried to do your reset method fro an android box Mx3 but it won't work and it won't go to android recovery mode. When I try the pin reset and holding power the red light jut turns of and will go gray.Can you please help me?

    It would work if in place of native box recovery you installed TWRP recovery and tried to install the new system using this new recovery method

    That's on idiots level, who don't know anything about electronics. Real problem are manufacturers who are producing clones TV boxes, not compatible with any official firmware. My advice, don't buy cheap android TV boxes.

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is no such thing as Official Firmware. Firmware is an abstraction layer that connects the OS to the physical hardware, every box is totally unique. AndroidTV boxes are different from Android TV boxes. AndroidTV, like Nvidia, is a market place and they keep you updated... it is a good bet.

      @@PeterC408 I don't need your lecture, have over 40 years experience in electronics, especially in satellite communications. You didn't address TV boxes clones. Misleading package doesn't tell people what's inside. That's causing any firmware update ending in brick box.

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not unless the manufacturer provided it. See when you get a FireStick or Nvidia Shield they keep it up to date because it is a market place. Box manufacturers don't care. If you bought it as Android 4.1, it will stay there. I really like the Roku Sticks with the microphone search. You can ask it for anything and it will tell you all the places you can stream it and if it cost money, all the prices from all the sources! Super feature. amzn.to/49KiV9o but I really like their soundbars with this feature built in. Now TV sounds good at low volume amzn.to/48zELLU They have sound engineers that make the spoken voice more clear and commercials, normal volume.

      Updating the Firmware is only possible when the manufacturer releases new Firmware... I do not see the MXQ going from Lollipop 5.1 all the way to a modern version. It's time to cut bait and get a newer box.

    Dear Peter here is my other issue. Just a week back I bought a Vontar Android 11 TV Box with RK 3566 Processor, 8GB RAM and 128GB ROM. It has Excelent results, speed and Resolutions are all fine. Download files on the device is also great; however, I have a rather unique disappointment with this device. If I want to transfer a file or a folder from this Devic (which I downloaded on it or trnasferred from another device to it) to an External Drive (USB Flash or a Larger USB SSD or USB Hard Drive) then it seems that the process of transfer is in Progress (as it can be seen on the Progress Bar of my tv screen), but when the contents are shown as 100% transferred then the message comes "Failed" which means the file was not transferred and in reality the file was not transferred. This does not happen with every transfer but happens most of the time. The Size of File is irrelevent as I have tried small files of less than 200mb and larger files of 2.5GB or more. I have tried on different Target Drives with Fat32, exFat and NTFS. File system did not matter, happened with all of the drives. Sometimes, its goodluck and sometimes its not.
    Also, please note that the same file which "failed" the transfer, failed again and sometimes the same file successfully transferred.
    However, If I transfered a file to Micro SD card in the Device's allocated Port then no problem. All File systems on the MSD did not matter (However, I am aware of the limitation of the FAT32 file system which limits the MSD Capacity to 32GB only).
    In view of foregoings, I termed it as a "Unique Disappointment".
    Any thoughts, Ideas, solutions I can benefit from your valuable knowledge and experience.
    Kindest regards,
    Ershad Balosh

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Each model has different resources: sound chips, processors, amount of memory, etc. All of these are defined in Firmware and proper communications from the OS to these resources are dependent on proper Firmware. That said, maybe the difference is only a Wi-Fi Bluetooth chip that you are not even using and may never notice that it isn't working.

      @PeterC408  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      AndroidTV boxes have come way down in price. The good ones they are now calling GoogleTV (instead of Android). The bonus is that GoogleTV boxes stay up to date with the latest OS. No more upgrades. Also there are Amazon Sticks and Roku sticks that are based on Android but also get regular OS updates. Recommend one of these instead amzn.to/4ao8WqW (entry level 1080P) and amzn.to/3UaQFaX (4K)

  • @hugocardoso2519
    @hugocardoso2519 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    i have to disagree with some of the things you say, i got a lot of different boxes with the same hardware , (Amolgic CPU, wifi chipset, ddr memory) and some of them come out from factory with different android version so what you claim about not being able to upgrade android version not true, you can upgrade and even install other tipe of android tv or tablet or even linux it all depends on what roms are developed for the device keep in mind that the rom is device specific so if an upgrade is available by all means do it it will not harm the device in any way and you get a refresh. peace...

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Firmware is the devices specific software that defines you interface to audio chips, graphics chips, bluetooth and Wif solutions. I have never seen a perfect match other than the firmware that was released for it. Even FW for the H96 with 2GB vs 3GB would not work from one box to the other. Trying the wrong firmware can be a one way road.... but if there is nothing to lose, go for it.

      Sorry, I do not know that one. You can only find FW from the manufacturer. Check online for a support chat or similar.

    X96 Max I found the reset button in A/V port. Unplugged the power and pushed the rest button and held 10 seconds and plugged in the power. Held the reset 10 seconds after the power cord was installed and released. The logo came back on in the frozen state ???
    Frustrating.
    What else can I try???

    Great video sir! I just wanted to say It's far easier to utilize adb and fastboot commands via terminal in Linux or even cmd in windows to install updates. Adb sideload is drag and drop and most Android oems offer the updates that can be flashed through two commands

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      LOL. Think about it. how long would it take to explain ADB, what it is, where to get it, how to install it and how to use it. The explain Linux or Command line. Then say "easier" again. LOL

  • @UGotHookah

    Been a long time since I seen you on hope all is well so someone upgraded my Android box from Android 6 to Android 11 but then when I go into the system and settings and look at what Android version it says Android 6 now I think it is rooted and flashed as he said because when I click on when I checked the Android flash with a program it said your device has been rooted so I believe he did it right I just want to change it from 6:00 to 11:00 just in case I end up sending or selling it I'd like people to know that it does have Android 11 on there. Works pretty good. Do you know how to is there a program that I can go in there and edit and just change from 6 to 11 so that people see that it is Android 11

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I really don't think this guy managed to put Android 11 onto old hardware. I think he managed to take your money. Firmware is very specialized software that ties the hardware to the operating system. It either comes from the manufacturer or someone's just guessing. Imagine putting a 454 into a Porsche. All that work that it would require for the gauges to work and for the transmission to a line that's all firmware. You can fake software on top but it's not going to work.

      Have you tried holding the "not a reset button" while you apply power? And keep holding it. If no lights, no signs of life, it could just be dead.

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lots of these android boxes use a version of TH-cam that uses an API Key to access content. There are millions of boxes and everyone is using the same keys so after a few hours it turns off. Do you see a "Daily Limit Exceeded" message? Take a look at this video... its old but sounds like the same thing th-cam.com/video/BR1GHGgqQQo/w-d-xo.html

    Greetings Is there anyone who can give explanation . Is there possible to install universal stock rom on any android box reason is that my is mooved from factory and there is no online update what was switched out couple years before . What should I do pls give me some lines with links or anything to try ..

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry, there's no universal firmware because there is no universal hardware. Best is to get a new box that will last a bit long because it gets updated. The only way to do that is with an AndroidTV box, which is different that a box running Android for your TV. My favorite is the Nvidia Shield amzn.to/3sGzLR6 I have had one of mine for going on 7 years. Still updated because it is a market place (they have a reason to keep you updated which Android boxes never had).

      Turning off on its own could be a thermal issue. Does it rattle when you shake it?

    I have a amdroid box that used for setup box to watch tv channels but if you go in the settings you can see that it has android 7 and 3 gb of ram but you can't use it as an android box and now we unsubscribed from that company so now i wana try if i can use it as an android box. It's a Huawei if i look from the back

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      In all honesty... don't waste your time. Android 7 was last updated in 2015. Since October 2021 we have been on Android 12. If you like the world of TV boxes, do yourself a favor and invest in a box that will keep updated "forever"! Get the Nvidia Shield. It is an amazing box with an amazing remote... and Nvidia keeps it updated because it is a market place for Nvidia. I am still using mine sine 2015! amzn.to/3OeSPA0 or this one if you like gaming on your TV box amzn.to/3IOeVIO

    I connected the wrong power brick and now the box is bricked. I tried tooth pick thru the AV input to reset the unit but it didn't work. I want short the nand but I can't find the model box I have.

    • @PeterC408
      @PeterC408  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, if you plug in a brick with more Voltage or reversed Polarity, it will brick the device and no amount a toothpicks will bring it back. Smell it and see if it smells a bit like Ozone... (kind of a sweet electrical smell). It you "let the smoke out" it is not going to work again.
