Hello everyone,
I have a rooted Intel TM785CH, manufactured by Apex & TMAX Digital. It is currently running Android 4.4.2. The manufacturer's auto updater simply does not work. It is up in the air whether or not they actually have an update, but their website and manuals give me no results. I have images attached of the poorly made updater app and device info. It always says "Update Failed - Check Connection," meanwhile you can clearly see that I have Wi-Fi connection. Anyways, I was wondering if it is possible to get Android Lollipop, or at least 4.4.4, on this device. I can not find any information on the internet about this particular device. As stated before, this device is rooted (if that helps). Any information you have would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Can some one point me in the right direction for the firmware for a t95z plus firmware it's a amlogic s912 chipset with 2gb ram

Use this method to flash the box:
h t t p://androidpcreview.com/how-to-use-the-amlogic-usb-burning-tool-to-manually-update-firmware/3749/
You will need an usb to usb male cable. Connect to usb1 on the box. No power cable needed.
Worked for me.
are there newer images.. I bought one of these

[Genuine] T95Z Plus 2GB 16GB 3GB 32GB Amlogic S912 Octa Core Android 7.1 OS Smart TV BOX 2.4G/5GHz WiFi BT4.0 4K pk X92 h96 pro+
I got the 3g/32g rom was fast and seemed ok android 7.1
until I upgraded or installed the superuser from chain DD said installed ok and asked to reboot which
I did for it only to hang on the boot animation... so very sad
I suspect its altered or written to the wrong partition?
now need to reflash
recovery works with toothpick
is there a image for this new update? and can it be flash from recovery from sd card so dont need a pc
as pc cable method is more a pain

I add the info for others with bricked boxes or bad ram.. reformat reflash can bring them back
also try a new power pack.. often the voltage degrades over years and drops too low
I used the 3gb with the flashing tool usb to right sid port... leave power plug out.. and insert toothpick and
connect usb from pc.. should beep if pc detects device on USB and the tool should show finally

The above link for 2GB is not working, also can you please clarify for which WiFi chip is the above firmware? There are three versions of T95Z Plus: WiFi 8830, WiFi 6330 and WiFi 6335. If one flashes the wrong version, then WiFi will not be working on his box...
Thanks for this thread. I am fighting with a T95z PLUS 3/32GB stuck on boot. I am going to try the above ROM (the one in gdrive is still available) as soon as I can get a USB cable, and report the results.
EDIT: Is there a way to flash from SD? I have no usb-to-usb cable to try right now, I am going to have to buy one and wait for it...
EDIT 2: Flashed through SD directly. Extracted the contents to a FAT32 formatted SD card and inserted it in the T95Z Plus. Booted normally and proceeded to "upgrade". The box is working right now. Sound are wifi are working - cannot say more than that so far. I don't know if the version is older than the original that came with the box, but I guess it should be possible to update if necessary (not sure how, though).
Thanks @kiwiman2000!
I can see from the boot screen that the firmware posted for the 3/32GB model by Kiwiman2000 with which I recovered my box is the 20170623 version. I know that the one my box had before rescuing it was 20170807, so it is possible that somewhere a newer version is available. The OTA updater is not finding anything online, though. In the meantime I will stick with this working version, and if I happen to find an update, I will post it here.
After playing around with the T95z Plus after installing the above firmware, I started noticing some bugs. First, the Play Store resets itself constantly. It seems every time it updates from the factory version to the current one, whenever you open it, it goes back to factory, asks for permissions again, and resets all settings.
I have tried to replace the system apk with an updated version. This works but only when starting it for the first time. It then fails to open, and will only open again after clearing the app data.
Does anyne know how to correctly fix a broken gapps?
Latest T95Z Plus Firmware. Android v7.1.1 For 2GB RAM/16GB S912 Chipset
Here is the latest firmware for the T95Z Plus Android tv box. Works on Sunvell, and also on Weily branded T95Z plus and probably all models with same chipset. Says android 7.1.2 but it’s actually 7.1.1. Latest firmware for this box tho. Runs great.
Google search “latest t95z plus firmware” and it’ll be the first site you see called entertainmentbox. I can’t post links here as I’m a new user.
You don’t need to use the male to male USB cable method to flash firmware. You can use Burn Card maker and update box using micro sd card. USB burn card maker can flash new firmware and also revive bricked Amlogic based android tv boxes.
search on YouTube for “t95z plus burn card maker” and there are many videos on how to use this method.
Hope this helps, it will get your box updated to Android v7.1.1 build T5ZP1013 kernel v3.14.29 android security patch level February 1, 2017 Model T95ZPLUS despite the build saying T5ZP1013. I assure you it’s the T95Z Plus firmware.
As for google play updating, then returning back to previous version and default settings every time I believe this is to keep the box running without breaking any apps or software for the current firmware. You really only need the version the firmware comes with. If you wish to update keep a lookout for future firmware releases. My box has the same issue as do others I have asked. I also like to have the latest version of everything too so this is what prompted me to check into the google play thing myself.
Happy Flashing!!! -~
T95z Plus will not flash
I have tried over 7 different roms, different usb, ect all the same result
UBOOT/Partition _aml_dtb/Verify patition/Error result can't pass 9%
What does that mean??

Thanks. It's important.
I ran into this problem, since Kodi wasn't playing right. I used a script program universal init.d and supersu, and after supersu rebooted the device it hung on reboot. I have an easytone t95zplus but don't see any of their firmware posted online.

You first need to determine the precise model to get the firmware:
1) Is it a 16 or 32 GB model?
2) Is it model q200 or q201?
You can check these by booting into recovery.
Need files for recovery
Hello guys, i need some dire help.

I am not sure of how to help you- but I will tell you this: I did not use a SD card maker. I just pasted the img file into the root of the SD card AND also included the extra files (which I believe are needed for proper boot and installing) from a different img file package I found somewhere else. So, tell me if this can make sense somehow:
Get the img file you tried to use in step 3 and put it in a SD along the extra files included in the package you used in the second attempt.
This is sort of the way I had to go to fix mine (although, for the sake of truth, my box is pretty unstable now - freeezes and hangs often). I hope an update would come out, but nothing so far.
Hi everybody, I'm just posting to let you know that I have very much upgraded my T95Z Plus 3/32 through the instructions in this thread, which includes firmware and recovery files.
Hopefully someone else can give it a try.
hello,
what / where is the last upgrade / custom rom for T95z plus 2/16gb S912 ?
Hi All,
I just got a mxq pro 4K S905W android 7.1.2.
In order to use an app (which detect root), i have to remove the pre-installed root. By looking at some forum i found a solution which consist to install superSU first to be able after to unroot my device.
After I installed SuperSu i rebooted and got stuck on "android" logo.. I tried a factory reset from recovery menu but nothing changed...
Now i want to try to install a fresh FW but i'm not able to found it out, i can only find FW for S905 or S905X but not for S905W.
Can someone help me on this issue. Or at least point me to the right FW (by the way i don't care to have android 7.x, 6.x is Ok).
Thanks!
edit: I tried to install S905X FW for android 6.0, but it failed. I think because downgrade are not allowed.
Do you think i can install FW for a different but really similar box like w95 tv box (found 7.1.2 fw for it)?

I have a w95 box and had the same problem after installing SuperUser the box is stuck on "Please Wait" boot.
There is a Reset button on the base of the device but it seems to be inoperative ... I had the box for 2 days and it is now a paper weight (not eve it is really tiny and light).
There isn't seem to be a way to access the bootloader or Recovery...
Really frustrated now.
905x & 905w use different boards.
At the moment SuperSU will install but if you update it it will bootloop your box.
Look at other s905w forums I think there is a firmware for a s995w board but I don't have the link right now.
It could be in freaktab Forum
mxq pro 4k botloop after superSU update
any suggestions about this problem? I can't find new firmware. What can I do now?

Hello everybody I am after some help please.
I own an Abox a1 plus android box s905x. Somehow the original firmware became currupt but there are no original firmwares on the net that I can find to get this box up and running again. With this said i have managed to get it running again through trial and error with a different rom.
The only thing is I am in need of the original remote.conf file to get the remote working again can anybody help as I fear i have run out of options.
Hi, Same request, i have remove many apps on original firmware and don't work after reboot, i flash nexbox 7.1 firmware all work fine but miss remote.conf original (Abox A1 plus 8gb/2gb - s905x, firmware original is marshmallow).
Thanks in advance.

This exactly the firmware I got my Abox A1 plus running with too. It works brilliantly with no mods. I just needs that remote.conf file afaik.
I can't get any firmware to work on my Abox A1 Plus. It always gets stuck on the logo. Where did you download your firmware from?

Hi, take one firmware here but respect your memory configuration (2Gb ram and 8 Gb rom = 2-8G).
mega.nz/#F!F9xjTSSa!R0vJfTC2U6Qc2skNMrr1iQ!hlJDxRxQ
(add https before for full address, i don't have acces post link ^^ )
But if you have original again work backup your remote.conf in system/etc/, or remote dont work after upgrade. (and if you can backup, please post here your remote.conf file) thanks.
Sorry for bad english, i'm french.
Edit : I search for repair and i found we don't have a remote.conf but our file named remote_mouse2.tab
i found my factory code via dmesg –c on ssh and it's recognized, now i remap function one by one
The power on keycode is hardcoded in bootloader (and with this rom is different from original). All key work but if box off, power on with remote don't work.
Delete this please :/

Thanks for the link djmagma59! I already tried this specific firmware, but I get the burning tool error at 98% (see above). I'll try again tho. If I install the 6.0 version of the firmware the installation goes through, but the box gets stuck on boot (logo).
Did you have any issues installing it? Any ideas for me to try to solve it?
Again, I appreciate the help.
Hey I don't know if you still need it but I was looking for help myself and foud this thread, I have this box, it came with with 7.1.2 tho, I'm attaching the remote.conf file for you.
