Hi,
a few weeks ago, I ordered my Mini M8S II at Gearbest:
http://www.gearbest.com/tv-box-mini-pc/pp_390235.html
Yesterday I tried to flash this image:
http://amlinux.ru/image/905/7.0.2.003/LibreELEC-Amlogic.aarch64-Mini_M8S-7.0.2.003-update.zip
onto the M8S II, unfortunately the M8S images are not for M8S II... -.-
I flashed via "Backup&Restore" and got an error and the box stays black after reboot. I wanted to flash a bootable with the Bootcard Maker, but couldn't find an official image with the u-boot.bin. Can someone tell where to get it? Now I'm waiting for an USB-A -> USB-A cable to use the USB Burning Tool.
Is my procedure correct so far? What also could I try?
Greetings

Have you been able to fix your device yet? The M8S is a S812 chip. I think you can probably try using any S905X u-boot for the M8S II. I have access to one from 20160929 if you still need it.
Also do you have serial console access to the device?
Hello all,
I tried to install ROM ATVExperience but without sucess.
I tried with another sd card (I haven't cable USB Male/Male).
When I boot the box with the button reset pushing, I see a logo and very quickly screen became black and tv saif "no signal" like the cable was not connected.
I tried to change cable, I tried another port on my TV but nothing.
I this the installation of the rom doesn't work properly and not my box are bricked.
Do you have some idea for help me or do you think my box is dead ?
some informations about my box : Bqueel K12 - amlogic S912 - 2G RAM.
Many thanks in advance
Rudy.
Hello,

I have Cherry V2 Pro Amlogic based device(red board CS_905w_tx_v1.2) I have figured out this is the fake copy of Tanix Tx3 mini, the board, the outer body, android version looks same as Tanix Tx3 mini, I need help to un-brick this device, I tried installing atvXperience through SDCard after completion of updating bar blue screen appears boot written on display of device I waited for some time and then remove the power cable after that is does not give any display only blue screen and red light on back of the device, I tried Amlogic USB Burning tool but after connecting and push start button it stops on 1% and give error, after that I tried many roms including TX mini one but no luck , Please suggest me solution to solve this problem. I am attaching pictures of device and current status.
Mecool BB2 (not pro) 3/16 GB box. After uploading the firmware atvXperience_v2H_s912 i want to back to original firmwae and box stopped at the logo and that's it.
I performed the steps described on the net, and flash again with USB Burning Tool after reset pins on the PCB. Firmware flashing successful, without errors, but the box does not respond, the blue LED is on (optical too), screen is dark when connected to the tv with HDMI or AV cable. I have tried several different firmware moded and original and the effect is the same.
What's going on? Maybe someone know how to run it? I will be grateful for any help.
Hi , thought the bb2 was the 2gb model and the bb2 pro the 3gb . I installed slimbox rom for bb2 and bb2 pro and works well https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1UxvVggW8eNJqrm20zuKbn6SRFUBbZ_RA?usp=sharing
If it doesn't work try going back to stock android 6 and upgrade but i think the 3gb you have may be a pro model . this may help you https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=764998
Hi dear friends,
thank you in advance for your help. I have a strange stuation (at least for me) with this box from Foyu x96 mini.As you can see in photo and also written on paper box , it has Amlogic S905W 4G 32G rom, but if i go inside Kodi for example in System it says it has Rockchip 3229... then also on recovery mode on boot mode it states "android recovery rockchip 322x ..... I've tried with Amlogic burning tool but it doesn't recognize the hub connection and it doesn't burn another rom for S905w. I've tried shortening nand pins..nothing
Have you got any suggestions to erase all and burn an Amlogic s905w Rom , considering there's an S905w cpu?? i don't think it's a false one! there's no Rockchip inside!
thank you
Isn'it strange? Any suggestions?
..seems i found the million dollar question.. the only post that puts in crisis all the forum...
ive seen amlogic devices recovery reporting as rockchip, its usally just a mismatched recovery, i would try and figure out mask rom mode for this board, see my video here for some info

Thank you for your kind answer,but i tried also with mask mode,it only sound but no connection. For me it's a fake chip,otherwise why with rockchip tool it normally connects? Also on kodi it's incredibly slow,and in system maximum resolution is 1280*720!! Absurd
Hi , I have exactly the same problem with a tv box x96 mini locked in the logo screen. If you find a way to recover, please post it.

I can't see if yours has amlogic s905w chip,anyway mine it's not locked,you can try with rockchip tool to burn image if you got Rockchip inside
yes I have a S905x chip, it doesn't look very good but I managed to take a picture.I tried with usb burninig tools but my box is not seen by the computer and I don't know how to use the nand method.
If your x96mini is not locked, you can help me with a stock firmware of your box, to try a rewrite of my box with the sd card method. Thanks anyway for the help. I have been looking for a solution to unlock the box for some time.

Sure,probably it is,but with librelec would be only kodi...
Hello, thank you for your help. If I install the firmware from the link you sent me, can I then write another firmware? If I find the original firmware.

Just to confirm if you have Rockchip inside, anyway LE is runned from SD card, nothing will be installed onto the box.
Ok thank you.
Hi, I tried LibreELEC but it doesn't work. I'm attaching the image with the received error, maybe you know what the problem is. Thanks

Did you create bootable media...
Create Media - LibreELEC.wiki

Yes I created a bootable sd card, with LibreELEC rk322x the box does not start, the LED remains off.
Well it look like you guys have a fake amlogic like me on the tag is 4GB RAM and 32GB flash store. All the inside chip has been marked like the real one but are fake. Main chip is RK3229 and the ram is just 1GB and 8GB flash. I successfully unbrick this **** using rkfactory tool and a rom for RK3229 chip. step to follow: 1. install rockcip drivers, 2. start factory tool, 3. load firmware in factory tool, 4. conect USB A - A cable to pc, 5. tooth pick in the AV port and pres the restore switch from inside, 6. connect USB A - A to the OTG USB port on the box the port is the one next to the tf card reader, 7, the hub is recognized by the pc and it be detected by the tool factory, 8. flash the firmware, enjoy.
