I have a Himedia Q10Pro Android box that has been bricked by a firmware update. I followed the instructions (FAT32 drive, only update on root of drive) I was performing the firmware upgrade from 1.0.8 (Android 5.1) to 2.0.1 (Android 7) very carefully as instructed by the post in the forum, box is in a cool equipment area, fed from a clean UPS for power. Got the Android upgrade screen, progress bar was moving. Stepped away to help my daughter, and when I came back I was at the HIMEDIA boot screen. Left it to boot.. and waited.. and waited. Wouldn't go past that boot screen, left it a couple of hours. Then powered off and then back on, still stuck on the boot screen (says boot on the LCD display too).. left it an hour again, no go. Tried leaving it unplugged overnight (clutching at straws!).. no change.
I've tried the upgrade again, when pressing the upgrade button, the LCD changes to 0000, but still displays the HIMEDIA logo and no activity light on my USB thumb drive. Tried several thumb drives, all 3 USB ports, several firmware versions (including the 1.0.7 as suggested), and every combination.. no dice. Stuck on 0000 on the LCD and Himedia logo on TV if I've used the upgrade button.. stuck on boot on the LCD screen and Himedia logo on the TV if I haven't. There is a guy in youtube (can't post links yet, search 'Himedia Q10 pro bricked after upgrade to hmd2.0.1') who seems to have the exact same problem.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Thanks

Hi guys,
I have an Aoson M30 (rockchip 3066) and it now won't boot to the home screen.
It Just turns on to the company logo boot up screen (which is normal) but stays at this screen. It flashes the pattern over and over so the processor is obviously still running .
It should then go to the home screen but just continues to flash the boot screen.
I tried to reload the firmware but the Rockchips batch tool doesn't work either. It sees the tablet but stays at "pink" on the indicator screen. It doesn't turn green (which it needs to) so the firmware will not transfer to the tablet.
I have reset via the reset button, flattened and recharged etc but it wont start up
.
I tried booting holding the volume + and power buttons and it comes up with an image of 2 penguins? Then it shows a vertical android bot for a second before showing one lying down with a " !" symbol above it.
I guess the firmware is corrupted but without the ability to reload I fear I may have a brick!!!!
Any ideas?
Cheers

Hi,
i had the same problem some time ago and the way I solved it was by flashing again the original rom.
Your issue might be the driver installatin on the PC to recognize the tablet as a M30. I had to use an XP to be sble to install properly the RK3066 drivers.
Also try tomuse another usb cable. The one it comes with the tablet is quite patchy and I had to use a good quañity one.
Dont give up, if you ger the endless logo loop I dont think it is bricked.
Good luck.
Hello,
I wanted to test plugging the MK802+ (clone A10s) to my computer and starting LiveSuite WITHOUT choosing any firmware.
I pressed the reset while plugging the MK to USB.
Nothing much happened, except light flashing on th MK802, closed LiveSuite and powered down the MK802
However, now, unit starts booting, green screen android, then black screen android logo, then powers down....
What can I do?
It's a fake A10s MK802+ like device.
Thanks,
Hi, first of, this is my first post on this forum, so sorry if this is by chance in the wrong place...
Right, now the issue;
I got a Lenovo Tab A10 (model: Lenovo A7600-F. There is another set of code that goes like Lenovo A7600-F TAB A16GBE-DE)
and I have a serious feeling its bricked.
I turned it on today (at time of writing) and it gave the "Lenovo FOR THOSE WHO DO" logo like normal, and stayed like that...
forever...
So after I pushed the little white reset button besides the micro-sim slot I boot up in recovery mode by holding the volume up and power button till the black screen with the white letters pop up, and I select [Recovery Mode].
Then the Lenovo logo pops up again, and after a second or two an Android looking like he's playing very dead comes on screen with a "!" exclamation mark
above and the text "No command" under it.
I tried a reboot with the same splash screen hangning as before.
I looked up on the internet and found that clearing the cache helped a person, so I did that by pushing the power button with the dead Android and scrolled to "clear chache" with the volume buttons.
I did that, tried a reboot, but nothing happened, same result as the previous reboot.
I went as far as restoring the factory settings and rebooting but to no avail.
I go digging.
I found it could b the rom, the os or both that is totally f%#@ed up somehow and that it is in fact repairable.
Some more digging about and I find this: forum.frandroid.com/topic/203630-clockworkmod-recoveryroot-pour-lenovo-a10-70-a7600f/
Those links are very useful, because they bring me to a bunch of downloads that contain the flashing tool I need and recovery images along with a link to
Lenovo Smart Assistant. Also I can read French, so following the instructions wouldn't be a problem.
The first thing I do is connect the tab and start up Lenovo Smart Assistant (with the tab off). The computer (win8.1 Packard Bell Easynote LE) makes the chime of something
being connected, but I cannot see the device between My Computer like I normally do.
Neither does the Lenovo Smart Assistant recognise anything plugged in after a scan.
Following the instructions on how to recover with the Flash Tool also is fruitless because the Flash Tool doesn't recognise anything plugged in either.
I've now completely run out of options and don't know what to do.
Is there any way at all to save the tab and get it back up and running?
Hello,
I have a tablet that looks similar to Q88 A13. CPU is wm8801, OS - Android 4.1. So I had stopped using it and left it sit for like 1 year. Now I charged it and tried to turn on, but it wouldn't get past first logo(the one that appears first, not the os loading one) and would attempt to go into recovery itself, but then the android with exclamation mark would appear for a while and then device would reboot and so on and so on...
Then I triggered a hard reset with a button combo, but it didn't really help. Tablet stopped trying to go into recovery and simply kept getting stuck at logo.
I can't access recovery, and neither ADB nor fastboot is working. PC with win 7 reports it as unrecognized device and other PC with win xp doesn't even see that anything is connected to it.
I've tried unsoldering the battery, completely discharging tablet without it, soldered it back on, but didn't help.
Help?

Try Livesuit 1.11.
I've used it to load several ROM's
I'm currently running FaaastJB v2.5 found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447819
I have a MXIII 4k 2g android tv box running 5.1.1, which all of a sudden boots to the launcher, then shows android logo, then launcher and so on, i've done a hard reset (pin in av) and factory reset but still does it, any help appreciated. Thanks
well, my first box was a MXIII-G 4k, and this is what is left from that "chinese" box , i haved the same problem, reboot loop, until android logo, stuck or reboot, first i thought it's from the power supply, i changed it, still this problem, then i found out that memory chip is damaged and i can't do nothing about it so, i throw him from a wall
try to flash the firmware again, if the problem persists, try to change the power supply, if problem persists well you can't do nothing , don't buy cheap boxes
I've managed to fix it, i used twrp on an sdcard on another box to make a backup, then restored from twrp on faulty box, shame you broke yours
