Thanks For Sharing, Might Try This Out Don't Have A S905X2 Device But Project Treble (Well Try Anyway)
I tried the beta firmware. It worked but I would like to downgrade back to the older stock firmware. I have the original ZIP file but the update process shows "E3003: Can't install this package (Tue Jul 14 10:09:33 CST 2020) over newer build".
Any advice how to downgrade? Thx.

dear friend can i find it somewhere to img not to zip file to burn it with Amlogic_USB_Burning_Tool? thank you anyway
FOR MECOOL M8S PLUS DVB T2/T
use this image file M8S_PLUS_S2_S905X2-V2.20200103_AndroidPC.zip with Amlogic_USB_Burning_Tool_v3.1.0. when you unzip it, you'll see an .img file. this ROM is for satellite. don't worry about it.The only reason you're going to use it is to be able to downgrade the firmware. follow the instructions on how to use the amlogic usb tool. when it's over, turn on the device and you're going to see the right software without a TV because it's a satellite. make a factory reset.put on a USB this software: M8S_PLUS-ota-V2.20200714.101012.zip. and upgrade through the device it will be returned to the original software. you'll need a toothpick, a usb male to male cable, and a pc. it is important that the amlogic_USB_Burning Tool detects your device. follow the instructions on the lower right side of the program. uninstall all previous versions of amlogic usb burning tool. good luck

hi
in google live tv not fuction Cccam?
Hey guys, I have installed this but my WiFi is not working and Live Tv can't find any channels?? Any idea or some help, please???
And does anybody have any newer firmware than V2.-original but that works 100%. I see that this BETA is V9, so some version like V7 or V8. I have problem with DTV app it's stutter and frezze so I figure that newer firmware may resolve this issue.

I have attached 3 files which are for windows 10 x64. It's absolutely certain that they work perfectly. I also wrote that you need a USB cable and a toothpick. On the back of the M8S Plus there's a hole that says AV. You have to push the toothpick in, until you hear a click. This is the reset Button. Practice until you're familiar with it. Go to the control panel of the pc and remove any drivers have installed. Then re-install what I've attached. when the installation is finished you should have in the control panel these two.

Run Aml_Burn_Tool, and keep it open
Connect one end of the usb to the pc.
Put the toothpick in the AV hole and as soon as you hear click hold it down. Connect the other end of the usb to the M8s plus. Do not connect the power supply. Do not release the toothpick until Aml_Burn_Tool recognizes M8s plus. Follow the instructions of program.

I did it, problem was in using USB 3.0 ports, when i switched to USB 2.0 both on PC and M8S it worked perfectly. But I still have a problem with DTV app, when I watch Tv it's stutter and frezze. Is there an option to install some other app. That Live Tv on new firmware was working OK but everything else was not OK.

My retailer gave me the instructions below to reflash the stock firmware on my MXQ Pro 4K .
1).Open the zip file and copy the files to your SD card then insert the SD card into the TV Box
2).Plug HDMI cable then use a small stick press the upgrade button (which is in the AV port) and hold on.
3).Connect your device to the power supply.
4).When you see is upgrading then let your hands go.
Hello,
I have the version PRO+ and I have not reset button,
what if the box does not turn on?
Did you buy it online?
I bought mine through Aliexpress. I emailed the seller and asked where I could find the firmware because I'd deleted too many system apps and was having a lot of problems. She sent me a link to her Google Drive and the instructions posted above. The button in the bottom of the AV port amazed me. Try emailing your seller, include the words please and thank you a lot and see what happens.
yes i buy on GearBest, thank god they repay me without turning the box,
but the box I always at home and it's a shame for such a configuration to remain in the closet.
So the box lights up but nothing happens
is that it is possible to weld the reset boutton?
there's plenty of guides out there and YouTube videos
try here hxxp://blog.geekbuying.com/index.php/2016/03/21/mxq-4k-rk3229-smart-tv-box-firmware-update-2/#comment-2582465063
you will need a male to male USB cable to do this way
and as above use a tooth pick pushed into the av hole to get your device into flash mode as per guide
Google "mxq update YouTube"
to find video guides how to do this
latest firmware here

when I plug in my box via the mal usb to mal, the LED lights but on my computer peripheral manager detects nothing
you may need help of an extra hand or two to get your box into flash mode you need to unplug the power cable hold a tooth pick pushed down into the av hole (there's a hidden button in the bottom of that av hole) and then plug the power cable back into the box still holding the tooth pick in place then plug in the usb cable into the box make sure you use the rear usb port next to the HDMI port this should then allow flash mode if your still having trouble install the usb drivers first then try the flash mode setup /connection again

What does that mean? My boxes say that I have that exact firmware. MXQ Pro 4K, Android v6.0.1. I have bricked boxes and want to try to flash the original firmware. I can't go back to the seller. Does someone have the firmware and could pass it along. It would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have mxq pro 4k 64 bit,
I have downloaded a app from the paly store and then it crashed. Then I restarted it and now it's just the picture from the home screen and there are no apps. I watched some videos on YouTube how to restated but there is no restart button in the AV spot.How do I restarted now? Please help me!
In case anyone is still interested, I successfully flashed mine. It was a matter of finding the correct system. I can look back to find the files if anyone is interested but I do know it was a pain to finally get it working. Regards to reset button, check in the av port. There should be a button you can push with a toothpick or paperclip. Good luck guys.

Hi, I have one which was on Display, and is running in Full Retail mode. I have contacted JBL about doing a factory reset, but they said they come from the factory like that. I have opened it up, and it looks like a full working unit, and the board is labelled 40-SPARRO-MAD4G.
I tried holding either volume button down when starting, and when holding the right volume button down, the green android appeared with an error symbol.
Their is a Micro-USB port underneath marked service, but I have so far not been able to track any firmware updates/roms/images etc? I plugged it into a PC, and it said the driver was a
qualcomm HS-usb android diag 901d
I figure if I can't use it as a smart display, they'll make a great set of speakers.
Did you figure out how to use this in any way? I have a similar issue.

Not at all sorry. I was looking at trying to install Google Assistant on there, from scratch but it's beyond my expertise. I tried looking for a rom/firmware update, but nothing. If I had access to working one, I might be able to back up the rom onto a PC via the Micro-USB port.
Darn, alright. I ended up selling the thing. Got one from an auction, oh well, I will just buy a Nest Max
Hi. I have a same issue. It on Demo mode and I tried to factory reset but no hope. Does anyone have solution to change or flash Rom on this. Thanks
Fixed
I know how to fix this. But this requires firmware from the desktop. Need to make a backup from the desktop and download to the demo version.
And i know how to go into mode to download the firmware but i don't have it and i can't find it anywhere.

Well can you share what you have found? I too have a demo model of this display I would love to get working. If what you propose seems viable I'm willing to buy a retail model with the aim of pulling off the rom and returning it to the store later.

This is the information I was sent via PM from andrukarc . No idea if it is correct or not.
here is a link on how to extract a backup
https://forum.xda-developers.com/gen...-root-t3570178
I can't do it because there is no place to buy in my country. JBL link View they are not supported in Ukraine and so they are not imported here, but I have a demo model and I would also like to revive it.
If so backup then we flash the device and it will become like a regular model.
I know how to go into firmware mode and solder for this program.
.
you made a backup?

I tried win7 and win10. No results.
Looking to help if I can, as I got this on an auction I didn't fully read. My brother does have a full retail version thou.
Today I accidentally erased the system partition via Fastboot. And now it doesn't show the demo clip. This means I need to load the system.img into it . But how to pull this partition from the working device - I don't know yet. I keep looking for a method. I think JBL use Snapdragon 625 APQ8053 and Android Things OS. If I could get developer mode I would use ADB to download system.img from working device
Thx for all your efforts so far!
Man, im pulling my hair out trying to get this box working again.
Short brief: I bricked it lol. But Ive got it to connect to the PC again via the shorting it out trick.
I've flashed a couple of different iso's to no success.
Which I mean, it completed 100%, but once disconnected, it wouldn't boot up.
I just cannot find the specific one for my MXQ Pro.
As I said, the specs are
S905X
6.0.1 Marshmallow
H234_V2.2
2017-04-08 is whats written on the mother board.
I'm trying to flash it using USB_Burning_Tool 2.0.7.2
Ive probably wasted 100gig in downloads so far trying to find firmware thats compatible. I'm just about ready to throw it in the bin.
As a last ditch effort, does anyone know where I can find compatible firmware for this thing?
cheers

well, the first link worked. It's booted up. Only problem is, the remote doesnt respond, it only allows me to push down. I installed the next one successfully too, but same problem. The remote only allows a down navigation. Pressing anything else won't work.
Keyboard and mouse respond just fine.
I've tried changing the remote files, even tried the Beelink one, but none of them are working.
I've tried two remotes, both doo the same thing.
The firmware is rooted.
One thing I'm seeing is a notification saying the SU binary needs updating. However the link I downloaded it from says not to, as it will cause a boot loop.
I'm wondering if perhaps when I opened the box and shorted it to read to usb burner, if maybe I damaged the reciever or something? However, when pressing buttons on the remote, pressing up does change the blue light to red on the box, so it is recieving something, just not doing what it should.
But pressing left or right does not change the light.
Edit. I've just discovered pressing up is actually being used as the return key, it backs out of apps.

use attached RootExplorer
after you replace the file in place just remark it with long press with mouse.. then go to the top righ of the program and choice permission in windows open you can just right 0644 then hit OK

No success
Remotes still acting the same way.
Well, in one way I've resolved this, but without resolving the problem.
I can't fix the blue tooth standard remote problem. I think i may have screwed something up when I was short circuiting the mother board.
However, purchasing an android remote that uses a usb reciever does the trick. I bought one of thoseveral android keyboard remotes. It works perfectly fine, only issue is I can't power on and off with the remote. I have to pull the power out or switch it off and on by the wall.
However there is another remote with a power button, I presume it would be able to power on and off. I'll mention this incase in future anyone has this issue.

well, the first link worked. It's booted up. Only problem is, the remote doesnt respond, it only allows me to push down. I installed the next one successfully too, but same problem. The remote only allows a down navigation. Pressing anything else won't work.
Keyboard and mouse respond just fine.
I've tried changing the remote files, even tried the Beelink one, but none of them are working.
I've tried two remotes, both doo the same thing.
The firmware is rooted.
One thing I'm seeing is a notification saying the SU binary needs updating. However the link I downloaded it from says not to, as it will cause a boot loop.
I'm wondering if perhaps when I opened the box and shorted it to read to usb burner, if maybe I damaged the reciever or something? However, when pressing buttons on the remote, pressing up does change the blue light to red on the box, so it is recieving something, just not doing what it should.
But pressing left or right does not change the light.
Edit. I've just discovered pressing up is actually being used as the return key, it backs out of apps.

What file did you use to get your box working again? I believe I am in the same boat as you on this and could use a life raft. Trying alternate imgs for other boxes is where I am at, as all images I find for this box (aside from one labeled red and black) will not copy to the box and get stuck at 7%.
If you have any pointers at all I would love to see some life back in this box. All I wanted was to update to 7.1. Damn.....

[Update]
Solved the issue
1. Go to this link 4pda . ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=399304&st=600#Spoil-55136455-3
(Of course without spaces)
Or just search on google for "4pda forum" then in the forum search for mdz 22 ab
2. You will find a tread with someone holding a mi box in hand. Enter and read the instructions, translate it because it is in russian.
3. Download usb tool and rom
4. Open box back plastic cover, inside you will see a metal cover. Remove it carefully with a tweezer. Careful not to scratch the board.
5. Install usb tool with drivers, unzip rom. Open usb tool, load rom, insert usb male in box and the other male in pc.
6. This is the tricky part. Click start, shortcircut with the tweezers the test point and the metal frame and PLUG IT
7.If done correctly it should recognize and start download.
8. If it gives an error, repeat, uninstall usb drivers, reinstall, retry. Mine worked after 20 attempts. You need patience.
THANK YOU VLADIMIR UHLIR FOR THE INSTRUCTIONS!
Hello, sometime ago I did a pretty stupid thing with an usb stick and wrote on my mdz-22-ab firmware for mdz-19... something..
Long story short is bricked.. only a red light in the back of the box, no signal to hdmi.. nothing else
Can you, please, be so kind and tell me if it is any way to unbrick it?
Thank you so much for your patience!
It seems not a lot of people made stupid mistakes like me!

Hi, I had same problem like you. I fixed it using USB Burning Tool and flash image file from: 4pda forum (I'm not allowed to post link to external site)
You can find here mdz-22-ab image as well as instructions how to get your Mibox to "worldcup mode" (you have to disassemble device first), than you will be able to flash that image and bring your bricked Mibox back to the life. URL link for USB burning tool 2.1.7.3 is not valid, so I used version 2.1.7.0 which I found somewhere.
Hope it will help...
Thank you! You saved my device!

Amlogic_USB_Burning_Tool's Config should be Erase flash - Erase normal.
If set to Erase flash - Flash all , DRM key will be deleted and amazon video/Netflix will not work,
I did it ... how do I restore the DRM key?
