Hello everyone! I just found out my OTT Android TV from SDMC so if anyone have same device with me can you help me to get original firmware and probably custom rom? or maybe if anyone successfully rooted this device. thank you in advance.
I managed to unlock the bootloader but I can't go into mask mode & not detecting any devices in Amlogic Burn Tool
Try reboot update and then quickly plugging in usb cable. It should then be recognised by the burning tool.

what version Amlogic Burn Tool are you use ?
Refer to kalehrl's post below.
Normally yes, but oftentimes the operators disable the normal use of their device once the contract has expired and customers don't want to continue using the service. After a reset, you are greeted by a screen with the serial number of the device and you cannot proceed. So the only option is to flash the box with custom firmware loosing the widevine L1 and Google certification with Google chromecast in the process.

I have deleted my opinion since you seem so sure about this. With such certitude, you couldn't possibly be wrong. Although you are.

I ve heard about a device called miracle box which is used to flash OS to devices. Is it a software ? and i seen some box type devices on the web. What is the difference between normal flashing via PC and using miracle box device.?

Well to answer that question, take a look at this website. https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-13894.html
There will be links at the end of the thread. Those direct to the miracle box device sales.
Basically, you have two options.
1. Buy the actual hardware and pair it with the program.
2. Download the version of it, which doesn't require the hardware.
So, MiracleBox is both a software and hardware thing. Personally, trying the software only method. So far, no success.
Miracle Box is a Chinese multipurpose box that supports various CPUs such as Mediatek, Spreadtrum, Qualcomm etc. It’s a user-friendly interface to perform any task with it such as Flashing, unlocking FRP, write IMEI, repairing network etc.

Does anybody know if these tools work simply by downloading the software Without The Hardware?
I DO NOT have the HARDWARE... Dongle/Box or Smart card.
The reason I ask is Because I Downloaded different Version to this tool from different Sites but after I Installed it They Don't Work usually because No Smart Card.
I would like to use it if Possible......Can Anybody help me ? Thanks

"Factory" Recovery for MTCx PX3, PX5 and PX6 SOM.
UPDATED" 26.06.2023 - Before doing this, try your Headunit USB cable first - Some headunits support OTG directly on the headunit USB cable.
Come here after using paid Software "Mod" tools like Modinstaller?
This method is the factory method, which can completely recover a "bricked" SOM, recover from failed "modinstaller" or failed upgrade of Paid mods.
Finally - OTG for all without modifying your head-unit. With only basic electronic/soldering skills, get OTG and fearlessly flash or recover a 'bricked' MTCD/E (HCT printed on SOM) Rockchip PX3, PX5 SOM.
See attached pics for making an OTG cable from a USB cable and two resistors.
Resistors are 12K and 15k (22k is probably better) or anyone of the following. combinations. These resistors are necessary as 'voltage dividers', with a value between 1.8v and 3.3 OK. These simply place a logic '1' on recovery and USB-OTG to 'tell' the SOM to go into OTG recovery mode.
R1 | R2
-------------------
1K | 1.8K
2.2K | 3.3K
10K | 18K
12K | 22K
Get Windows Driver [Driver assistant - v5.11] and [RKDevTool 2.93] for direct/OTG SOM flashing:
1. From a chinese Firefly site here
or
2. My Google Drive here
[RKDevTool] .ini file is set English, otherwise tool will be rendered in Chinese.
This tool for dumping / getting full backup of SOM
Excellent tool, thanks @RedScorpioXDA
Note - all tools and driver have equivalent Linux versions.
26.06.2023 - Android Tool is now RkDevTool
PX5 Android 9 Update.img - suitable for flashing via rockchip tools - https://yadi.sk/d/umCvHqCDzHccr/RockChip PX5 Android 9/YB
The image is located in px5 android 9/yb. The file has "_img_" listed in the filename.
Note Android 10 has an img file too - located in px5 android 10/chs.
PX5 Android 8 Oreo full Partition extract suitable for recovering SOM, flashing via rockchip tools - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1P703unZDA_TdRzl6fjkkb-YUB-KpTViW
Using the RockChip RKDevTool:
For OREO: Unzip and flash all partitions in the ZIP file [px5_OREO_Full_13032018-UseToRecoverOrCreateNew.7zip here
For Android 6, flash the latest update.img file in RKDevTool
There are guides to partition flashing found on the internet, would be great if anyone could contribute by posting step-by-step instructions or a video to assist others (there are now posts in this thread...)
A generic guide to the RockChip RKDevTool, flashing partitions or image files is here as previously posted.
Credit (thanks!) to @scorillo_ro for the detailed image/connections diagram.
Worst case - SOM doesn't respond - force 'maskrom' detailed here explaining what MaskRom is and here on how to for your PX5 (px3 is similar.) Steps are: Power Off SOM and disconnect USB to PC. Use Tweezers, apply power/connect USB. Hold until Windows Device chime is heard (within about 2 seconds of power on.) See attached pic.
Warning : Use thin pins for OTG cable in order to avoid the damage of the SOM connectors, although along the thread it has been noted many times that damage to the SOM socket is very likely to happen if thick pins are used...OR buy SOM header from Aliexpress, digikey etc.[/COLOR]
17/11/2019 - Edit: Corrected URL for Windows and Linux Rockchip tools
04/04/2020 - link to px5 android 9 full update.img
20.06.23 - Update broken links to driver and tool. Update Name of tool (was) Android Tool - (now) RKDevTool
Nice work @marchnz !
A full step by step and pictures howto should be made now and all those PX5 users without sdcard slots will be able to use this method to get Android8!

Absolutely! I've done it a bunch of times. You can either use the sdupdate.img from the Oreo upgrade thread to load the Oreo recovery and then install the oreo .zip from recovery OR a full set of partition images.
I have a full set of partition images if needed, they're about 25gb but should compress right down (that 25gb includes [user] partition which is an empty partition.
Good... I'll try... But the process Need a PC no? Becouse with the unit with SD card slot needs PC only to prepare the sd card for android 8 recovery

Yes, PC. I've updated the post to include links to tools and driver. Driver 4.5 & Android tool works on Win7 - Win 10, x86 and x64.
For those without SDCard wanting to upgrade to Oreo:
You could try OTG flashing the Oreo sdupdate.img, fit SOM back to headunit and then try loading the Full Oreo update.zip from USB. Otherwise I will need to upload the full Oreo partitons dump with instructions....over the next few days....

It is my understanding that I can flash the SOM without the rest of the board?
So just disconnect the SOM then hook up the USB as per the diagram and it will be detected by windows. Use android tool / RockChip Batch Tool with a android 6/8 recovery.
The issue I have is that the nand doesn't look like its recognised after an attempt to flash oreo. Please see attached picture.

You mentioned a full partition dump. I'm hoping I don't need this. I remember reading that the partition structure needed to be changed for android 8. Do you have any idea how to do this via the tools? I remember reading about something called a storagemap that rockchip uses.

Strange. I only used Windows 7.
You can also try using a powered usb switch. Maybe the USB ports you used does not provide sufficient power? This is just an assumption.
Or, as @marchnz said, you can try enter maskrom mode.

if any dev could help me root this and get custom recovery would be great.
UPDATE: Thanks to NepoRood (and my testing) theres now CWM recovery (attached to post extract zip and flash img via fastboot flash recovery command.) unfortunately we were still unable to get root access.. if anyone has this device or wants to help root this pm me.
Additional files attached maybe someone can build me cwm or twrp for this as i could never get anything to build for mtk devices.

I found various firmware downloads, but need to know the exact type of firmware you are running.
Example of one I found: rct6603w47m7-android6.0-v23-v2.15.80 (<-- underlined part is what matters)
If you boot into recovery, it should show you the type of firmware you have.

Had the same issue also I came across a bunch of ota test files on a Chinese site but links were dead and because no ota update is available i can't grab the ota url or file name. So ended up hitting a dead end.
Would it be possible to bypass the activation code screen with cwm or twrp? Or maybe put a different version of android on the tablet, other than marshmallow.?

I've got the RCT6603W47M7 tablet, but here in the UK it goes by the name of RCA Neptune 10.1L.
Problem is I have bricked it and I am now trying to recover it using SP Flash Tools. I have tried 2 different stock ROMs, only to have nothing but errors and interruptions during flashing. (errors 2004 and 4008). My tablet is fully charged yet it will randomly disconnect during flashing. I've tried both the MTKAllInOne.bin and DA_SWSEC.bin but I still get the same problem either way.
I've tried different USB ports, different cables and the two download agents that I just mentioned but I am stumped.
I wanted to try the ROM found here https://www.needrom.com/download/rca-rct6603w47m7/
But as I don't have a premium account I cannot access it.
Any ideas? This is very frustrating.

Thank you for your reply, I was worried that this discussion was dead. That's frustrating to say the least! Damn! Well, I don't know if this will work but I found another device that is also a MT8127 and has exactly the same spec of this tablet. My point being is that I found a TWRP image for that device, and because it's the same chip set I assume that it'll work for this device too?
If I can get my bricked tablet to even turn on I shall try it. It also makes me wonder that if we were able to root the device, would we be able to access the internal storage by normal means? By using the micro USB ? Either way it'd be great to have it rooted.
I stayed up all night last night trying to flash this tablet and still no luck, it keeps disconnecting half way through.

According to what I saw on the AIDA64 app
It appeared to me that the Wifi Recieves is the type and model of the telink company
Quick Google of the board I see an ap6212 but really you need to open your box and see what's printed on the WiFi chipset . attached is what I found so check against yours and remember you will loose any widevine certification install a new firmware
AP6212
Download the ampak ap6212 version listed and install with usb burn tool https://androidmtk.com/download-amlogic-usb-burning-tool
Remember to uncheck erase bootloader and have a mouse and keyboard just incase your remote won't work
Do I only deselect the erase bootloader .. or is there something else
I hope to explain how to connect the device to the computer and install the ROM
You will load the IMG file first , deselect erase bootloader to connect use a double male usb lead to connect box to pc , try first by simply inserting see if it shows as connected if not locate the recovery button and depress while inserting the usb once connected press start and wait till it completed to 100%. I would try usb port nearest power supply or marked otg ...good luck

When connecting the cable, does it connect automatically, or does it need to press a specific button?
All boxes are different, some just connect others need reset button held down with toothpick and you have to find the correct usb port like advised or you can short the band using a pin .Another way to upgrade is by using burn card maker to create bootable SD from the image once made insert SD card and if your system is booted use a program like terminal emulator to reboot and start the update the command is reboot update
I installed the system on the box TV and it worked perfectly, but the problem was that it did not recognize the remote. What is the solution to control it? I hope you will benefit
Good for the remote maybe somebody else will point you in right direction it involves taking files from old IMG and modifications to kernel , a good solution is to buy a cheap Bluetooth remote or usb remote , some game controllers work or just use a usb keyboard and mouse
Who is the person who will define the old remote control on the system and where to find it
You could try asking the owner of the rom under his thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...date-tv-netflix.4191157/page-37#post-85043449
Hi, is there a possible way to flash with Huawei Smartphone Multi Download?
When I reboot to edl, the drivers are working fine (I unlocked the bootloader this way). When I open the app, load in the flash file and click Scan&Download, the phone isn't being detected. I tried huawei, mediatek and qualcomm edl drivers, but I still can't get the phone to show up.
The only way for the phone to actually show up is to boot into fastboot, but you can't flash every partition with that. It just says fastboot download fail.
So is there a way to get this program to work with the phone?
UPDATE
I used IDT and it worked.
If someone wants the firmware file, it's here.
WARNING! That is some kind of testing firmware. Look up how to update a huaewi phone manually to get regular firmware.
