After I installed SU and rebooted I could get into recovery mode, after trying a recovery from the menu the box still would hang at the intro movie even after waiting well over 10 min., so i decided to flash the update that Geekbuying provide the link at the bottom of the product page. Threw that on a USB stick, put it in the box, start to recovery, go to update from ext, locate the image on the stick start the update, the box showed starting the update and then every thing went black, left everything on for about 30 min and since nothing was happening unplug the box.

Plugged the box back and was greeted by the led light on the box, the digital panel did not light up in front and the TV showed no signal. Tried several time to boot it back into recovery to no avail.

Plugin the box into the computer, USB burning tool sees the box, but every time i try to upload anything to it I get this error "[0x10105002]Romcode/Initialize DDR/Read initialize status/USB Control setup error".

And now trying to load your twrp image in USB burning tool just do not work.

If you have any clue how to force USB Burning tool to accept the recovery maybe it would work.

You could try with the Burn_Card_Maker tool. It worked for me reviving my bricked device cause it auto-updates from SDcard and no user intervention needed.

Start here and look for tutorial, very easy. Just take right version and ROM firmware of course.

It will work if your box can boot to recovery, but it will not work if the box do not boot.

Putting the forward slash on the end allowed the img to go across, box rebooted but doesn't boot recovery, just sits on the T95Z PLUS screen, let it sit for 10 mins, just stayed there, pulled out power, put back in, box loads up fine to android os. Turned off, tried hard reset to get to recovery, same thing, just sits on the T95Z PLUS screen.

Flashed the Standard Recovery back onto the box via adb, pushed across fine, rebooted, but same thing, doesn't boot recovery, just sits on the T95Z PLUS screen. Any ideas?

No flashy :(

I grabbed the 3/32 twrp image from the thread, copied it to a sdcard. Renamed to recovery.img.

When I power up the unit holding the reset button or just boot it with the sdcard in the slot, the unit just sits there with the t95z logo on the screen.. nothing else.

I’ve also tried the usb flashing program as well but it fails at 2% giving me an error. I’ve tried to locate the the M jumper but haven’t had luck.

What’s next ?

Hello everyone! I have such case, I need to put preconfigured Alice launcher in img rom file. What will be the best way to do it, configure launcher as I want it to be on working TVbox, than copy launcher apk with settings to pc, and then put them to img file using customization tool? If yes, where can I find these changed settings files of APK in running tv box? Or I can edit launcher settings inside img firmware, in this case, where should I look to these settings files? Sorry for nooby questions:)

Help with T95Z plus 3/32

Hi all, I've been trying for 2 days now and its driving me crazy. I flash the modified Stock 7.1.2 Firmware via the USB burning tool then I go into the TWRP and attempt to flash Poison with a sd card but it stops after a minute and freezes when Unpacking System. I've left it for an hour or so incase its doing something but go back to it and still on same screen and tried numerous things but am at a loss. Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] leandrox:
The fact that you were able to flash the firmware and TWRP is a good indication that you should be able to revive the box, so be calm.

I never had trouble flashing. Maybe something that has to do with the SD itself? Like formatting or the SD class? Have you tried re-copying the file in the SD? Sometimes a tiny file corruption will result in an unsuccessful flash attempt.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] karlfromhull:
Thanks, I tired flashing it with the 2 gb version and seems to of done the trick, all though I know I bought a 3/32 box but now I've flashed it says the lesser. Very strange but at least updated now. Thanks

Hi Ricky im trying to get a MIMO um720s usb touchscreen monitor working with my T95Z 3/32 lp ram version. I have used the displaylink app to get the display working, and I have added usbtouchscreen.ko file and have the touchscreen working but the y axis is inverted. Any chance you know how to fix this? Hopeing i dont have to recompile the kernel, or the usbtouchscreen.ko file because I really have no experience with that. Thanks.

got stuck in the logo scene

I flashed the Rom. But when it restarted, it stuck in the logo scene, and it lasted for hour. So I had to turn it off.

My device is the "3+32" version.

It's there any other thing I should take care?

Thanks.

Hi everybody I have an Android Q5 TECH-IT box that should be the clone of a T95Z PLUS. Looking different youtube videos the inside and outside of the box perfectly match with a T95Z PLUS. My Q5 TECH-IT android box has 4GB of Ram and Android 9.0 ( may be the system informations have been modified from the e.bay sellers).

My big problem is that I would like to mount a custom firmware such as a poison rom, put the custom recovery, root ... but nothing. Usb burning tool even with the drivers installed, the procedure with the paperclip, does not recognize it, or burncard maker, bootcard maker or magisk, nothing at all.

Please help me !!! How can I do? Do you have any solutions? I' am very confident on this forum because it has been following by me for many years. Thanks to everyone. Regards

Hello

I have T95Z Plus 2/16 (s912) Android Box

Original FW was Android 6.0.1, but I was receiving new FW from factory (WeChip) - Android 7.1.2

With this FW I have problem with "OK" button with remote controller for my LG TV. When I pressing "OK" on LG remote controller TV Box made "UP"+"OK". All option in HDMI CEC is on.

With original remote controller from TV Box no problem.

What and where I should change for solving this problem?

P.S. Now I was closing IR receiver sensor on my TV Box.

Does anyone know, on an Amlogic device, what is the format of the logo.PARTITION? It contains several BMP images such as bootup, upgrade_success, upgrade_error, etc. I want to know how they are packed and what tool I can use to unpack and repack them. Thanks!

Guys, do you know any alternative firmware with newer Android which works on T95Z Plus? (especially 3/32GB version)

Anyone tested Aidan's ROM? (either Android TV 7 or 9 version): https://www.aidansrom.ml/
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] luca_brasi:
Aidan's Rom is running on my t95z plus with smaller issues. My version has 3/32 with lp ram and AP6255. I tried all lp ram-versions and it was the same for all

- wlan works

- lan does not work

- bluetooth connects to devices but e.g. no sound on bluetooth earbuds.

- display not working

- no other problems
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] xeros2:
@luca_brasi, thanks, but does it mean that you don't have display on it at all?

And based on which Android TV version? (7 or 9)

I could live with non-functional LAN & BT, but rest should work and I need at least Android or Android TV 8 for my TV/ISP proprietary IPTV app.

So, can you recommend any working firmware on A/ATV8+.

It's the reason why I'm considering exchange T95Z Plus for something newer, based on S905X2 (despite the similar overall performance of both chips).
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] luca_brasi:
No with "display not working" I mean the internal display. Box is connected to the tv and working better than ever.

Aidans Rom is based on ATV9.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] toptom:
Hi Luca! May I know which Aidan's ROM version you installed? I already tried 2 in the Generic LPDDR3 folder (of Aidan's uploads), the other one won't install, but it won't get passed through Aidan's ROM logo - stuck there!

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Are you sure your writing to the recovery block?

It's symlinked at /dev/block/recovery

Just a thought, other then that I have no idea what could be wrong ?

Hey mate, just wondering what firmware build you are using and where you got it from. My build is 1075, but I also have 1015 that are both Android 7.12. Wondering if the TWRP recovery img is not compatible with them builds. It's kind of bugging me why TWRP won't load for me even though it seems the commands are going through.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] dlevick:
so iv got a bit of an issue with my box.... every time the box turns off i need to re-flash it..... i lose everything.

Im using the USB burn tool to flash everything, first boot works fine and i can install everything. as soon as i turn the box off thats it, hangs on the t95z logo on boot and never comes back.

Iv not installed any custom recovery or anything like that on it and the soft reset button inside the aux port does nothing.

any ideas? ....

any help would be very much appreciated.

Mine is an Xgody box, easiest way to see what wifi chip you have is open the box up and have a look at the chip itself. Wifi chip is the silver chip in this pic of mine, ap6255.

Good news finally my box is back to life. Flashed it with Tanix TX9 pro firmware with USB Burning tool V. 2.05.15 and now at least the box boot.

Tried flashing it with T95Z firmware but none worked, and every time had to flash back the TX9 firmware or box would not boot.

There is a few issue with it has Ethernet do not work but WiFi do.

Same for my USB HDD that it will not see.

But at least it is alive.

Update: I flashed the 1015 build and tried installing TWRP again, everything worked fine, img flashed no problems, just won't boot to recovery??? Are you running 7.1.1 or 7.1.2? Just trying to get this sorted otherwise I can't use any of your mods your making can I? I presume most of them will need to be installed through TWRP.

---------- Post added at 08:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 AM ----------

I'm positive TWRP is actually installed as I know it flashes the img with no errors, it's just something about that T95Z logo that is stopping recovery from booting, is there anyway we can get rid of that logo booting, I'm sure that's all that is stopping it. I also tried doing it through terminal emulator on the box itself, same result, can get img flashed no issues, just on reboot recovery just gets stuck on that damn logo.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
I'm using 7.1.1 version 7015, I don't think there's an actually 7.1.2 version, they label it as 7.1.2 but after flash it says 7.1.1 everywhere in the build.prop

But if you get an actual 7.1.2 please let me know

As for the recovery, would you be able to copy your recovery block onto your sdcard and send it to me?

a simple 1 line of code

dd if=/dev/block/recovery of=/sdcard/stockrecovery.img bs=4096

It will be on your internal storage after that as stockrecovery.img

From then on I'll port this recovery to the device via copy paste method as the hardware is almost exactly the same.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Ok, making sense now, you're on 7.1.1, for some reason I thought you were on 7.1.2. I'll track down where I got the 7.1.2 from, pretty sure I've got a Mega link for it. I'll get that recovery block for you as well. Thanks.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Thanks for that, I've been searching for 2 weeks for a 7.1.2 firmware and never found it, that would be the issue 100%, I'll make the recovery for 7.1.2 and upload

I legitimately thought my build was the latest(6/7/17) 7.1.1 built by Willie aswell, I downloaded about 20 different firmwares and after flashing all said 7.1.1 so this great!

If you would like to attempt porting the recovery go ahead, you can use carliv image kitchen to unpack both of the recoveries, there was a pretty decent guide on here about porting recoveries for MTK devices, your able to use that same method to port the recovery for Amlogic devices and as the mountpoints are the same there's not much if not any modification at all

I'm out on business until tommorow afternoon so if you can get it working I'm happy to do it when I get back
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] whiteak:
Yeah, bit over my head mate. I'll have a look though. I don't mind waiting until you get a chance to do it mate, no hurry. Thanks again mate.

Also just realised you have the 3/32gb version of the T95Z plus, that's 100% the reason recovery wouldn't work
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] LeMaestro:
That firmware will not work for everybody, this is the one that rendered my box useless.

I to have a 3/32G box and it came with 7.1.2 preinstalled. To bad SU screw that up.

Now the only firmware that i have found that work is the one for the Tanix TX9 pro, but with a few problem.

They also have a crappy laucher that will not let you install Kodi, to force you to use their old modified version of Kodi.

If anybody has a clue to where to find the right firmware or make the one that we have now work on my box.:confused:

Also my box came with DDR4 memory i don't know it it has anything to do with my problem.
