Unbrick amlogic tablets
Hello stoio
I have almost the same Tablet. It's a Prestigio PMP5580C, for me it is labeld as Intenso Tab 814, but they are completely the same. I have tried to find the u-boot.bin in the stock firmware, but I didn't sucess yet. I've downloaded several tools which allows me to make my 16 GB MicroSD card recognized as a 512 MB SD card, there I have to put the files on it to unbrick my tablet, it's amlogic (like my username) (someone told me that this is the chipset). It has a TOSHIBA TC58TEG6DCJTA00 NAND flash chip of 8 GB capazity. I also need help by getting my tablet unbricked.
In the future Inwant to learn with this amlogic based tablet how to create custom ROM's, recoveries and custom boot splash screens.
Thanks for any help, I reall appreciate your help,
Please note that I'm from Germany and my English is not good as it should used to be, but I have a dictionary (as a normal book) where I can get good communication with you. I like the idea of using english only.
Every Image (.img) were made with the dd command, I need to look inside in the images and open the content, I used a hex editor and tried to strip off the 2k of data, but I can't success. I'm using this tutorial:
I'm using this hex editor under linux: Okteta
I don't know how to delete the 2k of data. I need to know what content the partitions have to unbrick my amlogic based tablet, cause I'm seeing still the white android robot, and the charging battery or charged plugin picture, but this tablet doesn't have a bootloader or recovery so I'm out of ideas, the only way for me is to use a microsd card like an live cd to automatically let this tablet flash stock firmware, but where is it? Please help me out, I meight be wrong, it's possible that different repairing ways exist, too.

Vodafone smart 4 mini doesn't start
Hi
I bought brand new vodafone smart 4 mini and first I did was root to unlock phone, next a very stupid idea came to my had to update software, after that my phone worked terreble, so another stupid idea came to my head to flash oryginal ROM, I downloaded rom, SPFlash tool , load scatter file and pressed download, everything looked good, it took about one minute and green circle ok at the end. I was verry happy, for couple seconds only, my brand new phone never started again. there was only short blink when I pressed power button , and then nothing. I've been trying to flash the phone many times after that with couple different ROM's but no succes. sometime phone doesn't even blink after flashing. Sometimes at the begining of flashing there is mesage "no partition table" or memory error. Please somebody help me, I'm loosing hope.
I think the only good news is that the "Media Tek PreLoader USB VCOM" still works, and looks like phone cooperates with the tool, maybe I should use different tool, or test phone first with some tool, or create partitin table ?

There is a custom firmware

[S905X3] AMLOGIC - X96 Air Extreme - TVBOX - CONCEPTUM

Hi everyone,
Updates:
2021-08-17 - Added patched Magisk boot for this device. (Conceptum Stock ROM)
I'm starting this thread to collect information and files regarding this particular version of X96 box and to explain to anyone interested what I have discovered so far..
The company who has repackaged the firmware for this box for the Greek market, CONCEPTUM, refuses to release the original firmware for this device.
So currently, I have dumped two types of firmware from a stock box in case it is needed. A standard TWRP backup, and a dd image.
At the moment, I actually am NOT having any luck restoring the firmware using the TWRP restore. Not sure why.
I was able to restore the original firmware using the dd image. So for anyone who screws up their stock firmware, you can use the dd image from the mega drive. Punchline: The stock image has terrible wifi speed as well. I have yet to try restoring the firmware via dd yet but when I do I will write if it works or not.
Here is a link to the folder where I will be updating what compatible files I can find.
4.38 GB folder on MEGA
13 files and 6 subfolders
mega.nz
This post is very incomplete and I will be adding to it shortly.

---------------------------
How to get into recovery
The button needed to access recovery is hidden. It is deep inside the stereo jack. (You can see it if you shine a flashlight into there.
My suggested tool to press this button easily is a qtip with the cotton from one end removed.
Insert the tool, and press it in until you feel the click.
Apply power to the device and as soon as you can see the logo come on, release the tool pressure.
It should enter recovery in 5 to 10 seconds.
---------------------------
CoreELEC
I was able to boot CoreELEC via sdcard, with bluetooth and wifi working with the following device tree:
sm1_s905x3_4g_1gbit.dtb
I forgot to check the speed of the wifi, but if I recall, both 2.4 & 5ghz was working with that dtb.
---------------------------
TWRP
The TWRP_AML_ViT_3.3.1_2020.zip (in the Mega folder) is a "hinged" version. Not sure if its the right term, but it can be run from the stock recovery, (Apply update from external). It does NOT install, it just runs it and lets you do stuff from there.
If anyone knows the source or an update for the Amlogic TWRP Hinged version, please post it here.
I used a previous "hinged version" TWRP_322.zip but this version did not backup properly all the partitions, ex it totally skipped the Vendor partition, which is why I have 2 of these Tvboxes as my first one the backup was bad and it was essentially bricked.
---------------------------
Amlogic USB Burning Tool
This seems to work fine, but something that is always missing from peoples instructions,
The Male to Male USB cable, on this device must be plugged into the USB 3 port.
The power cable must also be removed, and when plugging in the USB cable to the correct port, will provide power for the "fastboot" equivalent mode needed to flash from the Amlogic tool.
So the procedure to flash is (after installing the USB Flash tool)
Device is powered off.
Insert USB cable into your pc end.
Insert tool and press recovery mode button.
Plug in other end of USB cable into the tvbox.
It should power on, keep the recovery button pressed until you hear the device connect to Windows (USB being plugged in sound)
They you should be able to flash.
---------------------------
Compatible ROMS
Long story short, due to a initial TWRP backup that was missing certain important partitions, I bricked my first box.
While trying to get the box working again, I have found the following firmware to work mostly. I am not reccomending them, as I am not sure they are working optimally, but if needed these can boot the system and work in some capacity.
X96Max_Plus_Q2_20201209-1446.img
Original firmware for X96 Max Plus Q2 version
sbx_x96max_plus_q2_v12
Slimbox Version 12 for X96 Max Plus Q2
This version does not come with Google framework which I needed so I didn't work with it much.
---------------------------
Magisk
Patched boot image for this device.
9.67 MB file on MEGA
mega.nz
Download and extract this file and put it somewhere you can flash from.
Install Magisk Manager.
Boot from Hinged TWRP, goto Install, Install image, select the file and flash to Boot partition. BE CAREFUL AND DON'T FLASH TO BOOTLOADER
Magisk Should be working, try running a root app and magisk should pop up
Magisk is complicated. On all the Amlogic boxes as far as I know, Magisk will install but NOT function properly.
The geniuses at 4pda have figured out a procedure to make Magisk work properly, but it requires hex editing the boot partition and reflashing it.
I have done the procedure successfully when I was using the X96Max_Plus_Q2_20201209-1446.img firmware. It does work.
I will upload this to the mega folder when I have time.
When I manage to hex edit the stock boot image, I will also upload it. Its an involved process and takes some time.
Reserved for future shenanigans.
my device has the same mainboard as you mentioned above ,but mine is 4/64 , my device bricked after burning non related image and after i plug in the power , for first 5 minutes nothing happens and then in vfd it shows boot and then clock and on tv screen only boot logo appears after 5 min but non consistent if you change tv source and back again it shows no hdmi connection and nothing more happens.
i tried out all p3 version of x96 air images but useless because they have different main board i wanted to try your dd imade backup (twrp is impossible bacause of no recovery) and burn it with amlogic usb tool but extraction of image ended with error with more than 15 gigabytes .
i appreciate anyone who can help me to unbrick my device , i am hopeless because this device has no support mine is named,x96 air 4/64

Regular Air firmware's do not work.
P1-P3 don't work for sure, P4 I don't know but I think not.
I haven't found a photo yet of the P4 hardware.
Try USB Flashtool 4/64 image for X96Max_Plus_Q2 to get your recovery back if such a firmware exists, otherwise try the 4/32. X96 Max Plus Q2 firmware (X96Max_Plus_Q2_20201209-1446.img)
You should be able to get recovery back via flashing one of those images.
X96 Max Plus Q2 firmware is compatible, but if you use the 4/32 image you will only see the half of your storage.
Restoring your TWRP full backup again once you get the max firmware (for twrp) installed will not work unfortunately. Already went through this.

You have a Conceptum box or just the same motherboard?
If you have a Conceptum, you are pretty much ****ed. They wont release the original firmware. You will have to buy a second box and get the image via dd.
I had to buy a second box and get the disk image via dd, and then restore the dd image using dd from within TWRP, overwriting the entire storage with the image. This was using the terminal built into TWRP.
In general, restoring from TWRP doesn't work well on these boxes, especially going from rom to rom as the partition layouts are different and TWRP doesn't handle it correct.
Conversion of the dd image to usb flashable is tricky and I haven't done it.
The person that MAY be able to do such a thing is Ricky ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...w-milestone-donate-version-available.3786991/ ) but I dont know and I don't think there is any point as my dd image has partition layout for 32 gb version, you will lose half your storage unless he can also expand the partition.
Even if you manage to get TWRP back, there will probably be a partition layout difference from the firmware you use to get TWRP on the box, and the TWRP image backup you did. It probably will not work.
You need to get your original firmware, or a dd image of the same box.
You can also use the Slimbox for x96max_plus_q2. I did NOT like Slimbox 12 because it was missing google play and a lot of other things. But it will restore recovery.

Hi.
To get Magisk working, its a bit of a difficult process.
Essentially, Amlogic released / built their kernels with a kernel boot option "skip_initramfs" which magisk needs "want_initramfs" for this to work.
The process is complicated as you must hex edit your boot.img after you have patched it with the Magisk Manager patching method called "Recovery Mode"
4pda where this was discovered - https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=774072&st=25020#entry91068157
Video from 4PDA that shows the hex editing process - https://mega.nz/file/pJ1RTChR#b5rLNs-4GF2qlZXKzbL0P5lmAeLLYObJ_w3_Yf8h16U
You can also get the video from the above thread but if I recall you must register to download and unless you know russian its difficult to register there.
A guide I wrote that you can follow along with the video to understand the process - https://rentry.co/wgu9u
Every detail matters, I studied the video for many hours to understand the process, good luck.

Thanks!!!! Dam looking not that easy .
The Boot img from x96 Air you edited, is it Stock?
Sorry i dont check my mesages here very often.
I don't know which boot image you are talking about, it would be very helpful for you to link me which one specifically I need to answer the question for..
If you are talking about the image for my Air Extreme, it is stock and patched by magisk, and then hex edited for magisk. But I dont know its compatibility for any of the other Air versions.
effgee, just wanted to let you know there is a lot of information and multiple versions of the X96 Air TV Box Firmware available at...
