Bricked M96X mini - Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers

After uploading wrong firmware I bricked my M96X mini.
I managed to solder a serial header and using FTDI board I can see this log:

AddrBus test failed!!!
Seems to fail in the second level in the boot process. Is there a hope I can unbrick it if I find the stock firmware?
Thanx

I f**ked up the stock firmware by trying to swap supeuser app with supersu and it stuck on boot logo animation. It just stays there for hours. Our device doesn't have a recovery and the only way to recover is with USB Burning Tool or Burn Card Maker. I had success flashing a rom made for X96 on it and booted sucessfully but there was no wifi. Next I tried several other roms and got mixed results like no sound or no wifi. If somebody has success with any rom for M96X MINI please share as I'm loosing hope that I will be able to fix it Also is there a way to extract working drivers for wifi from one rom and to import them to another ??

I managed to get the wifi working ! The wifi chip is HS2734A V15628 and I managed to install a rom from similar tv box with same SOC and wifi chip and this is the firmware that fixed my box --> s905xm82.M96X_MAX_7.1_2G_HS2734A_100M.2017.11.23.0 9.30
Good luck everybody !

Positivo YPY AB10D with ARMLOGIC MESON3 8726M SKT SH Custom ROM

Hello folks. I have an intriguing brazilian tablet POSITIVO YPY_ABD10 and was wondering if it is possible to put some custom rom or custom recorevery or any other rom compatible on it and then try to change the rom because it comes in it is terrible.
I try to followed these tutorials here on forum:
//slatedroid.com/topic/40623-aml-flash-tool-aka-imageburntool/
//slatedroid.com/topic/41478-how-to-unbrick-your-amlogic-aml8726-mx-series-tablet-v20/
//slatedroid.com/topic/95977-howto-create-a-rescue-sd-card-for-pretty-much-every-amlogic-8726-mx-device/
and I try too some roms but so far no effective success... I think only worsened the situation somewhat for before he was "soft bricked" and now is "hard bricked" before I could get into recovery mode that came with him by pressing the "power + vol+" and now the sign of life he gives is when I press "power + vol-" and computer recognizes as "M3 CHIP", then I try burn some rom with the flash tool but still no success yet ...

Upgrade an rk3168 tablet, from 4.2.2 to a better rom, or how to backup rom??

Happy new year, in the first place!
Maybe i posted this in the wrong thread, due to my questions, i will try here..
I thought after reading and reading on inet...Gone try here to get a little bit further with a simple but brand new tablet i got from my mother.
That's also the reason why i don't throw it away, i thought lets see if there is a possibility to make it run better then with the stockrom.
And if there is no solution to flash it, what is the best way to backup the rockchip 3168 with 4.2.2 rom off the tablet itself?
Also to try other roms, i don't wane lose my bootloader etc.
Its a new tablet, but the hardware is older and because of that i thought lets see if i can get it maybe a little bit upgraded on the software side.
And if not, maybe another solution.
Therefore i searched a lot, but has anyone....Anyone maybe a direction to look for a maybe better rom.Also with cwm there is nothing what works with this chip, everything based on the maligpu400 or maybe also with the powerVr Sgx 540?
Other solution would be to backup the rom, and clean afterwards the stock rom.But i got stuck in how and what is the best way to do that.
I cant install Cwm recovery, when it installs it doesn't continue.
I also read that people lost their original bootloader, and because i cant find the stockrom online...What would be the best way to do that, i saw the app mtk, and the Rockchip tool but that seemed a lot off work and if i mess up my backup would never work.
Or is it the only way to back up this rom from Rockchip, a full backup kerel, loader etc..
And to try out a rom, install from sd card, and to get back on the stockrom a factory reset is all, or mess i up the recovery installing another rom?
If more info is needed about the chips, let me know.
Thanks ahead!

[HELP] Need advice to unbrick my box :/

Hello!
I`ve an issue with my android tv box.
WARINING : It will be a long detailed post.
First of all, I got my box like a month ago from aliexpress. Its an Magicsee iron s905x 2/8 box. I plugged in the box everything was working but after close examination the box had a "modified" firmware. Its was contacting some random site and I didn`t like that at all. So I start searching for custom firmware. First one I tried was s905x_2G_atvXperience_v2FF.img. I copied the image on a micro sd and went in recovery with the thoothpick method.
The image flashed but after like 10 minutes the display disapeared and the led on the board turned red. I did wait like 2 more hours in case something was going on in the background but nothing did happed. So i reseted the box and the 2 red light came back immediately and no display at all through hdmi. I did tryed to flash back the image with the thoothpick method but the reset button doesnt seems to do anything.
After a bit of research I decided to hook up through UART port. I then saw this was happening :

this just keeps looping and looping. I even checked if the reset button had any impact on this and no. Nothing change. Im not an expert but I think the system doesnt boot far enough to consider the reset. Did some more researched to finally find the "short pin" method. I did that and some kind of progress :

this is with official firmware from magicsee website : IRON S905X 20180727 upgrade.img
The 2 led turns blue but the box seems frozen that way. The remote button doesnt do anything. If I reboot the boot loops come back..
With all the other img I tried I got errors like ( poison rom, AtvXperience and IRON_s905x_aml_upgrade_package_20170630_SN.img )

To limit the possible cause I tried with all these firmware :
iron s905x aml_upgrade_package.img (2017-09-23)
recovery.img
IRON S905X 20180727 upgrade.img
IRON_s905x_aml_upgrade_package_20170630_SN.img

s905x_2G_atvXperience_v2FF.img
RedPoisonATV_V2_S905X.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've also tryed with multiple MicroSD card. Tryed to play with the SD card burner option .
As for USB burner, I was never able to get my device decoded. I did my own cable. When I short the pins I got a detection for like 2 sec and then it disapeared.
On my board I see MAGTV101-v2.2 2018-06-25.
I did try to google for like iron_s905x_aml_20180625.img but never found anything good using that :/
The only thing I haven`t done is removing the heatsink to check if its really a S905X.
So anything else I haven`t tryed? As I said im not an expert but this isn`t my first time playing around with devices. Im pretty sure my box isn't dead I just dont understand what exactly is wrong. If anyone can give my a bit of adivce so I could get this box back running i would greatly appreciate!
Thanks.
If this were my box, I would treat it like a horse with a broken leg.
Take out your gun and shoot it to put it out of misery
