Try to flash the original firmware from TWRP in this thread there is the TWRP that you need and the original firmware. Or do a wipe cache/Wipe data to see what happen.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] shdware:
Okay, I unpacked the img and tried my best to make it a flashable ZIP using TWRP.

[MENTION=691855]alexxdj[/MENTION], [MENTION=1589791]Shineali[/MENTION], Can someone make a backup of their system via TWRP and try this?

I tried to flash this via TWRP on docooler M9S Pro 2GB RAM / 16GB storage, but failed - did not flash, just error message in TWRP 'Failed' without any details. I tried to copy the log to SD card, but I did not find the log on the SD card.

EDIT: It fails at "Updating partition details...".

No TWRP - only Formatting Data, and same device after.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] shdware:
Yes - you will need to download the image (mini MX one worked) and copy it to an SD card. Then boot into recovery and it will load TWRP. The startup screen TEAM WIN will let you know you did it right. You will need a mouse afterward.

You will need SuperSU, which I linked earlier; flash this with TWRP. Voila, you are rooted.

It won't fix the printing issue, but it's a start. I'm working to get RemixOS working.

my seler send me this rom for use it with the usb burningtool for reflash my m9s pro.

but nothing happens ......my pc not recognize the tv box.:confused:

any idea?

i dont have 10 post in this forum and i dont know if you can see the link
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] stelioskoz:
i have try this method but nothing happens on my tv box .the red led is always on and nothing else.

my tv always is without signal

i have try to many methods like reset button, connect pc via male to male usb and usb_burningtool,sd card method,usb stick method but my tv box is still dead.

i dont know what else to do.

:(
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] k__graham:
I think it may be an SD card issue, it came Formatted as FAT32.

Some new files automatically show up on it after inserted and turned on. In addition to the ones I have copied from the PC. But I don't understand boot into recovery. Using pin and turning on does not bring up TWERP. I do not seem to see the card when in the regular system, does it need a different format?

Thanks, Ken

arrived 2 days ago. Wifi is useless. Why?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] destructionj:
I had my eye on this thread for a week now in case my m9s pro came without root. I got lucky and the factory image on the box has root already installed. However I seem to be struggling to get any of my controllers i have laying around working with the current bluetooth. The Sixaxis compatibility app for my ps3 controller hangs and seems unsupported, and the Bluez Ime method for my WII controller seems to fail with BT socket opening error. The bluetooth is functioning because i can see devices available for connection when scaning but the WII controller is requesting a pin on connection attempt.

I was thinking if you can get another rom supported for this device It would be worth a shot. I have been unsuccessful at finding a fix for connecting either a PS3 or WII controller. Thanks for the information as i was able to boot twrp on the box without issue. It would be a god send to see some kind of flashable controller fix hahaha...

Thanks again and i will keep digging.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] destructionj:
I had same problem and also couldn't do backups. After some digging around I found a newer build of twrp that has not given any errors as of yet. I just did a successful install and backup with twrp version 3.0.2-0 which was tagged as twrp for MXQ Pro+ . The file was named (TWRP3_VegaS95_Meta). This is not in the list on the available selections but works perfect so far. If you search MXQ Pro+ information is seems to work.

Well folks its been a blast but i managed to hard brick the box trying to install sd-robots firmware.

I spent hours trying to unbrick the device with both SD Boot card maker and the usb burning tool with no success. Boot card wont load anything and usb burning tool fails every time at 2%.

If someone comes out with a working method i can give it a go, but as of now the box is sitting in the closet and i am waiting on my KM8 Pro to arive. The above TWRP works great but the rom killed the box. I did a full wipe and tried to restore with the sd-robots firmware which didnt work out so hot.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] destructionj:
brick update m9s pro:

I managed to get this box back to booting by using the usb burn tool with aml_upgrade_package0607.img but you have to short pins on the nand on the samsung chip. I put twrp back on the the box with no problem however the box keeps boot looping when it gets to "STARTING APPS" after the rom trys to install. I could greatly use a twrp recovery for this box.

I have tryed to flash the stock firmware from this thread but get the error "package is for hx_s905 devices; this is a p200"

[IMG="error image"]https://s11.postimg.org/98o41vxkz/20161128_235858.jpg[/IMG]​

It could be the wrong firmware that i used on the usb tool but haven't found any other firmware that would successfully load. But for those who bricked the device this is at least forward momentum. If i could find someone kind enough to share a twrp backup for this device it might help things along..

UPDATE 2 DEVICE IS UNBRICKED:​

I got the box fully restored with this process. Unit was bricked (stuck on the red light with no video or response from the remote, boot card maker was unresponsive.

Use

1: USB_Burning_Tool to load aml_upgrade_package0607.img

2: use male to male usb cable from the back usb port to computer port.

3: short nand pins on the samsung chip to establish connection

4: download TWRP3_VegaS95_Meta.img and rename to recovery.img and put on either sd card or usb stick(i used a usb stick on the back usb port of the box and it did work)

5: download stock firmware and edit file

\m9s_ota_20160805_1022.zip\META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script\

-------to remove remove line of code -------

getprop("ro.product.device") == "hx_s905" || abort("This package is for "hx_s905" devices; this is a "" + getprop("ro.product.device") + ""."); ------------

then re-zip the firmware.

5: boot into twrp by holding the reset button inside the audio port, do factory wipe,

6: install stock firmware with twrp once rebooted wait like 10 minuets.

I started a threaad for unbricking this device HERE
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Shineali:
Wow, this sounds great!!! you know what you're doing dude... I only have the knowledge to install and test roms...if this brick had happened to me... bye bye M9s :silly: as happened with an android car head unit that is waiting for a miracle :eek::silly::eek:
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] destructionj:
Thanks dude just figured i would share.

I dont see alot of information on this device on restoring from a hard brick. It would have been much easier if i could find a usb burning tool image for this device. (no luck yet) also I have not found a MXQ varation of firmware that would load all the way into android and most of them i tried resulted in having to pin short the nand and start over. :eek:

I made do with what i had and a few days of time.

[MENTION=6286430]destructionj[/MENTION] - good work with this!

To date, I've been unsuccessful with the USB burning tool, but that is how Jide intends for their RemixOS to be installed.

Try this?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] destructionj:
I have tried a few MXQ Pro firmware packages and all of them i have tried render the box useless leaving no option but to short pins to restore. (Red light, no video, no boot card restore)

I have had better luck with the MXQ Pro+ version of firmware which at least boots but gets stuck in a loop. I might play some more with this box when my KM8 Pro shows up but i dont hold high hopes for any MXQ Pro firmware on this box. The box is back up and running fine for a few days now on the stock firmware. All .img files i tried failed at 2% with the usb tool until i found the MXQ Pro+ firmware image.

It is reported that a user has the factory image for the usb tool but haven't confirmed that its working.

[MENTION=6286430]destructionj[/MENTION], the link is for a Jide RemixOS ROM, so it is not from the box manufacturer. RemixOS is pretty slick, but as I've never been able to get the USB burning tool to work properly with my computer I can't try it.

I've been trying to convert it to a TWRP-flashable image.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] destructionj:
Hi, I tried the rom you posted and the usb burning tool failed at 2%. The rom wouldn't flash onto the box. Then i tried the factory image rom (hx_s905_2g_16g32g20161014_1500.img) posted in my other thread and it went to 100% and worked fine.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] k_graham:
Just a note, I realized recovery.img is needed not recover.img
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] k_graham:
Okay after renaming it as recovery.img I am able to get to TWERP. I did make a backup with default options but should I have selected more options?

Now the link given only shows BETA-SuperSU-2.52.zip which I copied to the SDDrive , but does it need to be unzipped or placed in a directory?

I don't understand how to run it to make it SuperSU? You say to flash it but does that mean install or what?

Also I haven't seen the zip file in the sd card, does it need to be renamed or all small characters to show or placed in a directory?

Lastly once I manage to root it with a Super User, is there a default password for the Super User that I assume should also be changed to prevent hacking of the box?

Any instruction manual for TWRP?

Thanks,

Ken
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] shdware:
[MENTION=7729504]k_graham[/MENTION],

Sure.

Download the SuperSU zip. Transfer it to a USB stick or internal memory or SD or whatever.

Boot into TWRP.

Click "Install", then navigate to where you have the ZIP file copied.

After selecting it, do the Swipe to Confirm Flash at the bottom of the screen. Flashing will take a few seconds.

Once SuperSU is flashed, there should be a Reboot System option that appears. Select it.

You should now be rooted. You don't have to have a password; when something requests Root access it is a bit like Windows Vista where a notification window will pop up asking if you want to allow the app root access.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] k_graham:
Thanks, I could not seem to get it to be visible on sd card, however downloading via Playstore to downloads then rebooting and using twrp appears to have worked..

Next issue, trying to install a Linux.

Trying Complete Linux Installer from Playstore.

1. Says make sure debugging mode enabled ??? Settings, applications, development debugging on. Doesn't seem to exist.

2. Download image, I downloaded large image.

Download, install VNCviewer,

Download install terminal app

Done

3.Extracted using Total Commander -so many file managers IN ANdroid seem to do nothing but serve ads. Could not seem to recognize in SDCard?

But could in root with ubuntu directory made.

4. 2 problems 1st if I try running AndroidVNC Vnc connection failed ,could not connect to localhost/127.0.0.1 (port 5900) , connection refused

This is likely the cause of inability to start linux : error:unable to get permission from terminalap

WHich may get back to 1. WHere I could not find debugging mode?

So is it just not feasible to run Linux on Android? If not I will relegate it to a TV box and get something that runs Linux natively, too bad as I liked the thought of a sub 100.00 solid state linux box.

Thanks for the help to date shdware
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] shdware:
[MENTION=7729504]k_graham[/MENTION]

Debugging mode is hidden. You must enable Developer Options.

Settings -> About Phone -> click Build Number a bunch of times and it will say that you are a developer.

Now under Settings you will have Developer Options.

Under there is Android Debugging, which enables ADB.

Have you looked into RemixOS for its desktop environment? Jide has boxes available.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Arepelek94:
Can you give more details about this and how you rename or edit the file . I still not get it .
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] destructionj:
Download and unzip m9s_ota_20160805_1022.zip. after the rom is extracted find the file named updater-script and open it in notepad, it should be located at

\META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

look for and remove the line of code i posted then save the file and remove the extension .txt,

re zip the rom then flash it with twpr.

This is only if you get the error 7 in twrp, otherwise it wont help with much if your not to that step.
