Normally you would see a hardware hacker ripping one of these things open, looking for a uart, getting a serial terminal hooked up, reverse engineering the whole box then cross-compiling a Linux system for it. This old man simplified the process for himself without having any idea what he avoided. You sir found a USB port that also serves as a debugger and just used that to flash your firmware images.

Hi Ronnie is it possible to run the O/S linux or windows alongside the integral android system i see that on say ebay they offer a dual system box for sale they are all priced at over £100? $130?
You can run Android on the box, and either LibreELEC or Linux from a microSD card and dual boot that way. No Windows though. The beta version of LibreELEC 9, does give you Netflix in 720P with Dolby Digital Plus.
Hello I have M8S amlogic s812 box, it diesnt send the video signal to the tv. I tried with amlogic burning tool but cannot connect to pc (i have done flashing fw already so that is not an issue) and I also tried flashing firmware via sd card but cannot enter recovery mode, even waiting 60 seconds didnt help. Is there a solution for fixing my box ? Kind regards, Mensur
It's not a virus some programs use things which are commonly found in viruses (like cracked games will have programs meant to bypass the copyright/anti-cheat (in some cases) protection. However these types of programs can be used to bypass anti-viruses and it most likely noticed that and flagged it as malicious. If you ever download a program and your not sure go to Virustotal and upload the program something like 68? anti-virus engines including all of the most widely known and used AV's. If the program is malicious the site will most certainly tell you but you can't be certain it's not a false positive either (unless a large group of engines detect it). Generally if Kaspersky, Bitdefender, Norton, Emisoft feel it's safe than it is They also use a lot of machine learning/artificial detection engines as well which offer a lot. I can't speak for all of them but I do know Sopho's Machine Learning engine has get to miss a threat in all of it's testing, it has false flagged a few times but it's not missed a single one even malware written on the spot (zero day) to test it for laughs. I guess my point here is that it's not malware and if you feel you have a false positive than submit the file to VirusTotal for a near real time (minus the min or so it takes for all them to scan it) answer. ------------- Totally missed my point in all of this, this program is more effective some boxes will not let you write to internal memory via SD card so you must keep what ever SD card you used in the device. As long as that SD card is attached (in cases like this example) it will work fine and store changes on the SD card however if you remove that SC card it will revert back to a black post format slate. This program solves the problem and it's extremely useful in cases like this (where my first box had this issue).
Interesting topic , had an old android box 4.4.2 Amlogic s802 but it kinda would only let me update to 4.4.2 . Due to that is how it was made .would this amlogic method of sorts ,be usable to put more updated android version or would I be limited. Thanks
This is interesting. Yet I have been trying to change my software on the MyGica atv 1920. The memory does not want to load. Just stops the whole time. Any suggestions?
That is a tough question...... It depends on what OS you want to use, Android, Linux or LibreELEC/CoreELEC. Right now, boxes based on the Amlogic SoC are the best boxes for modding....... I have a lot of different boxes running different OS's. The most powerful box that is the most supported is the Odroid N2, but I do not have one. I have the Beelink GT King and King Pro, both of which are using the newest Amlogic S922X. There is a Linux and CoreELEC port for the King and King Pro.

I bought a Model: H96 Pro TV Box with 3GB RAM + 16GB ROM he gave problem I can not recover by sd card nor by burning tool gives error in 7% of progress would like the help of the friend to save my box I need to rewrite his bios
That is a common box, so you need to go to Freaktab and search for that box. You are trying to install a wrong ROM is why it is stopping at 7% . You can find the correct ROM for your box at Freaktab.
When you plug your device into your computer, make sure you hear it connect. If you hear the sound of it connecting, then try a different burning tool.

You offered more detailed information about how to get the Burning sd tool.
but I couldn't download it with out turning of my antivirus protection.
It is safe, maybe a false identification from your antivirus app.
you didnt use an SD card? were you able to install the firmware just by connecting the box to your computer with a USB cable?
With the burning tool, you do not need to use an SD card... The firmware transfers from your computer to your device via the USB cable.

I picked up a couple of Freestream X8 boxes, which have jellybean 4.4.2 .. worthless. Any idea what firmware may work with it? Couldnt find anything out there
Do a search or Freaktab for "Amlogic S812". You may find something there.

If you want to use your box as a media player, the best solution is to install LibreELEC onto your box. It runs from a microSD card and does NOT change your Android OS. Somewhere in my videos, you will find how to do this.

Thnx Ronnie (y)
Thank you sir.
I have a problem with my mx q box
it I show a white cross for repair and going to the mbox colour your world still on this screen and never work what should I do please 😭
Not really sure, sorry.
so does this mean any os i dont mean windows or linux but more like retropi
Never tried it.
Can you use the usb port to install the OS
Yes.
Hi thanks for a great video. I can't seem to find the reset hole in my tv box. I also tried the av hole and no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Which device do you have?? Most of the boxes have a reset hole somewhere, but a few do not have one. There are other methods to swap firmware's also.
I think this answer comes quite late, but in your case usually it is hidden in side of the the AV port (just put the toothpick inside and you will know.
I bought a Model: H96 Pro TV Box with 3GB RAM + 16GB ROM
he gave problem I can not recover by sd card nor by
burning tool gives error in 7% of progress would like the help of the friend
to save my box I need to rewrite his bios
That is a common box, so you need to go to Freaktab and search for that box. You are trying to install a wrong ROM is why it is stopping at 7% . You can find the correct ROM for your box at Freaktab.
Thank you sir
You are very welcome.
Mine doesn't connect even tho I'm pressing the reset button before plugging it in
When you plug your device into your computer, make sure you hear it connect. If you hear the sound of it connecting, then try a different burning tool.
@@clarkss12 it doesn't even show up in device manager unfortunately it is the s905 chip tho but it only has two usb ports on the side instead of one at the back and one at the side
@@alexderpyracc4053 The older devices used a micro USB port for the OTG port. You have to use the OTG port for it to be "seen" by your computer.
Does this work for any android box that works on amlogic cpus line the MXQ Pro 4k? I'd like to install diet pi to install Roon bridge. Thank you author.
You have to find the OS that will run on your box......... But yes.
Did you have any luck with it ?

Got a T95N Pro box and i havent been successful with installing roms. usb burn tool and boot card maker no luck. Please help is you can.
What error do you get when using the USB burn tool?? What firmware are you trying to install, and did you do a search on Freaktab for a ROM that will work with your box?
Look at this link, not sure it will work for you device, but worth a look.

Hi Ronnie I got A95X A1 tv box while booting it will take 1 hour or more than 1 hour pls share what I want to do pls help me
Does this happen with the stock firmware or modded firmware?
Can i install windows or linux on it ?
You can install Linux, but not Windows......
Thanks bro your so clever ✅
Thank you for the kind comment
Is that possible on M8S Plus Amlogic S905 2gb/16gb?
The procedure is the same for your box. You just have to get a firmware that matches your hardware.
its so simple and best!!! thank you so much
Did it work on the tv box
I need a little more information. What TV box??
Does any firm ware work with any box ?
Michael k pretty much.
Please share link for latest Oreo Android or Pie OS
Not sure there is a newer one.
Hello do you know of any Android TV boxes that come already rooted?
I am pretty sure the mecool km 8 comes pre-rooted. Off the top of my head I am not sure which other devices come pre rooted.best way to check would be to look on freak down for any particular devices you are interested in.
@@clarkss12 , Thank You

How does it go? 02:38

Your box is an Amlogic S905,,,my video is about an Amlogic S905x. Look for a different firmware for your box.
Hi,
May i know if my abdroid box can update install other firmware like armlogic m8s or pro ? My android box was dead not active any more the model was tvpad 1, 3 all is dead now.
Any solution for this pleas reply thanks.
Regard
Eddie
What is your exact model of Android box. Almost all of the Android boxes can be revived.
Ronnie Bailey
I got a few number of boxs the most i use is m8s xbmc spec .cpu - quad core cortex A9 processor
Octo-core Mali-450 GPU
Android kikat 4.4
4k.
Nay i know with this version 4.4 can be up to 5.1 with Kodi 1.7 ?
You have an older Amlogic S812, try this link.
www.entertainmentbox.com/android-firmware-downloads/
I don't think it can be updated to 5.1.
chinagadgetsreviews has a link for the M8S TV Box with Amlogic S812 CPU for Android 5.1.1 chinagadgetsreviews.com/download-android-lollipop-5-1-1-firmware-m8s-tv-box.html
Will this work on the s95x box?
It should, but depends on the memory module used and WiFi module....... It is worth a try.
What can we do with a server?
A server is ability to share your media throughout your network........ Example, Plex server and Emby server.........
Will the remote still work?
Haven't used that box in a long time. Don't remember if the stock remote worked...........I am guessing that is did.
Does this work on S912 chip? Awesome vid.
This procedure works on the Amlogic S912 also.
Ronnie Bailey thank you so much, you are amazing sir.
do you have an OS for the pure linux M1 v2 jynxbox ? thank you
Is this what you are referring to??
www.cnx-software.com/2014/06/03/jynxbox-m1v2-linux-xbmc-review/
Ronnie Bailey, yes. This is my box. But there's no more support from jynxbox. The last Kodi version was Gotham. Then i upgraded to a pivos firmware that was compatible and that's it. No more firmware from anyone.
Perhaps it is time to purchase a new box....... If you are wanting to run LibreELEC media center..........
can i install armbian with it?
Been years since I used that device, but you MAY be able to find a firmware for it.
@@clarkss12 ok, thanks
If i use other model of firmware to install in my box, is it possible ?
That is a tough question to answer. You may get another firmware to work, but your Wi-Fi and ethernet and Bluetooth may not work. It could also brick your box.
@@clarkss12 I have brick my box, I wanted to flash using maskrom at the nand flash, but got error "Test device failed" Im using T9 RK3118
@@discriminationfreaxk Were you able to get into maskrom??
@@clarkss12 yes i able to get into maskrom, but i cant proceed to flash my firmware because of the error.
@@discriminationfreaxk Unfortunately, I am not familiar with that error....
Hi, is this work on android TV ? not android tv box
Probably not, because the Official Android TV OS boxes have a locked boot loader
Ohh okay, is there any alternate solution for that?
well done thank you bro.
Is it possible to install prime os on it?
IF you run LibreELEC or CoreELEC on this box, it MAY be possible, but have not done it.
Awesome, thanks!
