What do you have to donate minimally to get the full Version?

PS :

I just ask, didn't want to make me look ridiculous if I donated only 10 euros

The problem with that is you only get partial extractions.. system and vendor. I need access to all partitions.

Thank you for the reply.. looks like a great little program.

The Amlogic S905 is only being recognized by the computer in fastboot mode as a WorldCup device.

But ADB doesn't work, and the computer doesn't see any device plugged in.

Can someone pls help me... i use the customisation tool to unpack an image, i make changes to the apps that get installed, change the boot animation, and then repack the image.... it says repack was successful, however, when flashing the firmware file that was repacked, the device doesnt boot, it hangs on the boot logo.

The firmware that im using works and flashes no problem on my device, only if I customise it does the repack not work..

Any ideas as to why??

[MENTION=5105831]Ricky Divjakovski[/MENTION] when you will release new version to working with Android 9? (donate version)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] derwoodbones:
I assume this project is dead, There is no longer any files in the download folder on his link and i see no updates in a long time ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] zusatzmetall:
I have already donated 2 times. And wait for the donated version since March 2019.

I'm really disappointed.

The main thing he received money, although I have received a message in between: Have you already donated?

Yes twice!!! was my answer. Then a week later I got a message with an attachment in the e-mail with the ticket system. Shortly thereafter a message came again: Did you really donate already? I answered him, yes twice with date.

Now is another week without the donated version.

Although I do not know how busy he is and what he does otherwise, but so slowly I'm very disappointed in him! After all, I've been waiting almost half a year and have already donated twice.

Donated Version arrived. Thanks to [MENTION=5105831]Ricky Divjakovski[/MENTION]
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] sds_d:
hmm, I sent a donation yesterday.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Hi everyone, sorry ive been quite busy, ive also had to restore my computer and its taken days to find updated drivers and what not, all emails regarding the donate version have been attended to, ive also considered using shoppy to automate things more on my end

Ive also been working on android 9 and im pretty close to completing V7.0.0, as for the firmware dumping tool im still no further than i was a month ago, the simplest part of the process is causing me quite abit of issues

If anyone has experience and can help i would greatly appreciate it, even people without experience may be able to help as its simply recognising a pattern!

Sorry for the inactivity and i promise to be more active!

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Hey everyone, sorry about the MIA, ive been busy moving houses and have not had internet, im currently on my mobile phone hotspot, dont worry i havent forgot about the project! ive actually began sending minixfreak(adam) test versions!

Please understand alot has changed in the software, alot of the tools now rely on python(not to worry, its integrated in the tool)!

Also for my donators, i appologise for the delay in receiving the donate version, im very sorry for keeping you guys waiting but i have caught up with all emails!

Ill keep you guys posted, this project is not going to die :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
can confirm all downloads are still in the download section, may have been site maintenance when you checked or just a simple communication bug with the server, do check again!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] mitchschaft:
Cool, I can finally donate
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Great news! Got 9.0 booting! 7.0.0 here we come!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Also, it may be worth the mention but there will be a beta release of the firmware dumping utillity with 7.0.0, there is a catch, im still unable to figure how some bytes are generated in the DTB header so you will require a stock dtb file from your device to help with the DTB gerating.

Apart from that theres not much left to do now, its just a matter of adjusting the new tools to the unpacker class(AMLUnpacker3) and adding python to the tools, im not sure if im going to use ironpy or not, but this is not an issue, either way im pretty confident with an ETA of 3 days!

One more thing i wanna mention is adam(minixfreak) will be continuing the development of PoisonATV! This is very exciting as alot of people have been asking for support and updates, all credit os to go to adam and im sure he will appreciate any donations if anyone feels it is deserved!

Very positive day for Team Poison and a very bright future! Stay tuned everyone!

Tools are pretty much done just having some issues with S922 repacking, when resolved V7.0.0 will be released :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Sorry about the delay of the release, having issues with S922 devices(only), once me and adam have figured the issue and fixed it ill release :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Had a very productive night tonight, tool may be released as soon as tommorow :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Yep, pretty sure i can have this released by tommorow, only minor cosmetic issues like apps not being displayed, rom info wont load when re-opening the tool and stuff like that

Something else i ran into was an odd bootlogo image, luckily adam worked out a solution for this and advised me on how to fix this, please note that some bootlogos cannot be displayed at all, they do however still work, theres an option in the tool to revert back to the old bootlogo format, this issue is only in 9.0 as far as i can tell

So keep checking this thread, for my donators you will get version 7 first

I do expect a bug or two so dont hesitate to post it so i can resolve it as soon as possible!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] I1V1A1N:
If interested found about unpacking dtb.

https://github.com/stslam/Amlogic-Repacker
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
From what i can see that utillity simply splits and converts the dtb files to DTS files, then repacks and appends them, ive been able to do this for almost 2 years..

What im looking for is how this part is generated
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Quick update, ive fixed the apps bot being displayed, added the option to replace the bootup.bmp to a recognised format and a few other things

Ive also added the old unpacking method as a secondary wag to unapack/repack incase the first gets any issues in the process

The issue i have is determining where the code should go, its best to code modular for efficiency purposes, however some code i do think is something the tool should handle, the unpacker class is definately the backbone of the project so aslong as i keep it tidy we should be good for a long time!

This is quite hard considering both the tool and my amlUnpacker1, 2 and 3 have all exceeded 10,000 lines of code, filled with checks, analysing file structures.

This is probably my most modular coding ive ever done, im very hapoy with the source code and how easy it is to adapt all to a new user interface aswell!

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Ah, this is why, it requires the donate version to unpack vendor.

Vendor will be where you need to look

As for everyone else, im applying final touches to the tool and compiling the changelog, its almost 3am here so im unsure if ill get it done by tonight or ill finish up in the morning!

Sorry, had some lst minute issues with the pythod module running endlessly

Sorry guys, facing a few issues, amlimagepack decided to stop working, yet i changed absolutely nothing in the imagepack code, yet manually executing the command seems to work fine, im not sure if its my OS or something else but im gonna send the donate version to adam for testing to see if its just a me problem
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] toilatoiok:
I sent you the ticket code again ! Please check mail , thank you !
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Just sent you your activation token and donate version, thank you for being patient!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Still having issues on my end, ive messaged a few donators to test on their end incase its a me issue, reason that leads me to think this may be the case is because i recently performed a fresh install and got some off compiling issues with some binaries, i considered the fact that im building from a seperate partition on my PC

Its hard for me to test because as some of you know my laptop is partially broken, under heavy workload the CPU heats up and the laptop shuts off.

This is why im relying on my donators to test and report!

Hello could you please give me a hand? I'm using your tool and building a custom android rom and its fantastic!

There is only one thing i need to change, i would like to preserve the original mac address of my box when i build a new rom, which files are the right ones to keep or edit to keep mac original? or which ones should i import from the stock rom to keep the mac address untouched?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jbir lotfi:
thanks very nice
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Hey, this isnt tool related, please post this in the general section

As for your MAC address, check up some research on making your mac address static

I have no idea how to do it but im sure theres a way
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Issue persists guys :( im not sure whats causing it, will have to dig in a little more during the week when i get home from work! The tools completed other than that small issue :(
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] jasonhelene:
No problem, thanks for your work.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
More debugging later with the tools, lets hope we can resolve this issue, the testers have had the same issue so we have narrowed it down to a code error or possibly even an outdated sdk spurce issue

How can I replace Bootloader.img with bootloader.partition with this tool?

I know about replacing kernel and recovery
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Pretty sure it works with S922 if i recall speaking with adam about it
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
I have figured out the issue, im pretty sure its a compilation issue with microsoft's msbuild, while redirecting standard errors from a process the thread runs endlessly if there are no errors, implementing a solution will not be too hard but does make my code longer and less versatile for next update, i will implement this solution when i get home from the office and upload today :)

Thank you everyone who waited patiently for this update, its been very inconsistant with ETA's and results but we are finally there!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:

Can I get V7 donation?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] amssmart:
V 7

The V 7 is ready Ricky ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ricky Divjakovski:
Sorry everyone, been hella busy with work, good news is V7.0.0 donate version is live now so keep an eye out for your emails as im starting to send the links now

Anyone who has donated and have not got their license, you will get it today aswell as V7.0.0

Your V6.0.0 license will work with V7.0.0 vice versa, over the next few weeks im working on making the license generation automated without the need to generate a token, then email it, then get your license and the donate version, so, it will be a donation, then an automated response system will dedicate a key to your product, then you will get the donate version and your singe use license, but this could be weeks before this is properly implemented.

So, known issues

-Some S922 firmwares have issues repacking(only one reported)

-While replacing S922 bootup.bmp sometimes you get a crash(restart will fix)

-Delayed firmware dumping tool, could put your device at risk if distributed at the current state.

And thats it so far!

The free version will follow soon after when i get more bug reports! thank you everyone for the support!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Twisted714:

Hey, if you have emailed me i would have respoded tonight, sorry i have not been active, my new position is taking my soul.. but it will pay off :)

All donators have been updated and provided their license files!

Anyone still waiting for V7.0.0 donate version please email me, its extremely hard to keep up with, so an email serves as a small reminder to send you the newest version, thanks everyone!

Non-official installation notes, version 7 donate

This is based on my experience and I share as it may be helpful. Your mileage may vary.

You will need your license from the previous donate version (look for a .tnk file) if this is not the fruit of your first donation.

1- Unzip the folder with version 7.

2- I suggest you unzip the python3.zip file you will find in wherever\AMLogicTools_V7.0.0_Donate\bin\ It is faster than letting the tool unzip it.

3-Launch the tool by double-clicking "CustomizationTool.exe" and allow Windows to run it.

4- When prompted, navigate to your .tnk file and install your license token.

And that is it.

I suggest the first ROM you unpack should be the stock that came with your box. It often is the best starting point for customisation.

I have a a95x max and I keep getting the error unpacking kernel, recovery, dtb , and boot animation, also with the twrp porter I can't seem to get past 40% and also pulling boot or recovery won't work, I tried on different computers and boxes, I also tried donate version 7 to no avail.
