I wonder if Skyshowtime worked on a previous Sbx ROM based on earlier factory firmware?

?? I read somewhere that if you change screen resolution to 720p or lower these difficult apps might start.... ??

A possibility that you must change device type in system files (Build.prop?)

Does this China Box have Widevine level 1 and play Netflix in full HD or 4K ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Reaper Man:
Netflix and Prime Video Certified 4K streaming box... You will lose the ability to stream Netflix in 4K ,(Prime as well?).
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] xristos1925:
It has Widevine Level 1 and it can play netflix in full hd. If a rom can be installed it would be nice but I don't know which because are so many and i get confused.

This is the box

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Reaper Man:
If you flash with another Rom (Not Factory) you will likely lose Netflix HD.

( around 480p ? )

Otherwise you will have to document the types of chips inside (RAM/WiFi/Bluetooth) and compare info to other boxes supported.

You may venture to post info to Slim House's Telegram for direct support.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
That box is probably equivalent to Mecool KM1 model.

You can try a ROM for it but I'm not sure if it will work.

Be careful because you may end up with a brick:

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] xristos1925:
Thank you ! How can I make backup of the rom if anything goes wrong so I can restore it ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
You can't go back to factory fw if you burn another ROM via burning tool.

Don't use the burning tool and the ROM unless you really don't have any other choice.

The best way would be to solder wires to the board and read uboot logs and hope the root shell is available.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] xristos1925:
Thank you very much for the information. If the uart connection is possible are there chances that root shell will not be available ?

Thank you. Do you know also if an Aidan Rom can be installed on the device ?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
There is a possibility that it won't be available but also that it will. You need to try and see. I haven't tried Aidan's ROM. I only had the device for a short time and it was unlocked so no need to fiddle with it.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PowderLinux:
im not sure if you are reffering to just that box specifically, but it is def possible to restore factory roms on most boxes..
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
Yes but very complicated once you replace factory bootloader and other partitions.

I have installed Version 11.15.1 on X96 Max Plus Ultra. However, I am unable to paste files to android/data folder for viperfx. Does anyone know the solution to this issue? Thanks in advance.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Reaper Man:
I though audio profiles were now included?

* Have you activated root? ( run magisk)

* Use a file explorer that can access root/system files.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Reaper Man:
S905X2

Similar to MECOOL KM2?

I did not see any posts for firmware. :(
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] gathaiyahe:
The included audio profiles are 56 in kernel whereas I have over 1k and around 400 for DDC. I have already activated root through Magisk. Whereas most of the file explorers that I am using can access the system files, pasting is forbidden, I started facing this issue on Android 11. The version of viper4android that is in Slimbox 9 eg on x96 max works without a problem since the viperfx folder is located in the normal internal storage.

Android 11 uses something called "Scoped storage ?". Hmm seems slow and dissapointing.

You might have to install via Terminal or ADB? or make a package for TWRP. Not sure how..."

* Found info about disabling "Scoped storage":

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PowderLinux:
i have that same box and i was able to recover the stock firmware before by using the sd card method.

make sure that you are using the correct image for your board revision.. (p1, p2, p3, etc..)

im pretty sure from the pictures you posted that your board is a P3, and not a V2 btw.. :oops:

Yes, i tried exactly your guide.

Short 2 pins, plug usb cable to laptop. Usb burning tool didnt show anything at all. Maybe, it should retire?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PowderLinux:
You would need to make the sd card with the stock firmware image using 'Amlogic Burn Card Maker'.

Then you want to insert the sd card into the box, and have the toothpick button pushed in when you plug it in.

That

should

make it stock recover itself.. (been awhile since ive done this)

try booting into recovery (toothpick method) and do clear dalvik cache/restore system.. then try booting again.

thats a shame.. the cpu in that box is still pretty decent if you can revive it.

as a last ditch effort i would try cleaning the board with isopropyl alcohol (specifically the solder corosion), and maybe try a different power supply if you have one laying around (its common for them to degrade over time)

Maybe I’m supposed to do something else?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Reaper Man:
I hear your struggle! We think it should be a simple fix..... :rolleyes:.

I will offer some ideas.... you can try tinkering around.

Any files copied to the >System >Vendor >Usr >Keylayout and Keychars (?) must(each?) have permissions set to 644

There are 2 mirrored file locations >System >Usr >Keylayout and Keychars (?) ...so copy and set permissions to both locations.

If the remote is configured in your dtb Bootloader boot-up files you will need to add it to your dtb (Decompile Original working Firmware read info from dtb: Decompile Sbx Firmware and add info to dtb(you could add original .kl files in system folders at this point) : Recompile Sbx Firmware and test to see if success or a BRICK ) via Amlogic Tools ( v7.x ?) or VTX Kitchen tools.

Search Freaktab.com (before it closes down?)

Google or searx for your problem.

Use an Air Mouse and plug/unplug power cable to turn on/off.

#3. ...There must probably be a better/easier way. Somebody please chime in ! :geek:

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Reaper Man:
X96 mini has seemed to be a problem and you may search through the XDA forums ..for others who had or fixed this problem.

Test to see if it is your Wifi Router causing non-connnect with China Box

Open your China Box carefully to confirm the type(model#) of your WiFi chip.

Model type/version printed on PCB board (when asking for specific help).

Might have to decompile firmware and try modifying DTB in Bootloader files? (Something Googled ... not sure..)

Slimbox.ru has some WiFi patches in the s905x Universal directory ??? You risk a Brick by choosing incorrectly.

Try editing one of his patches for your China Box?

Check Freaktab.com or 4Pda web sites.

Return to previous working firmware.

hey folks I have a X96 Max Plus 2 (64/4)

I want to have the box rooted with magisk and I've unpacked the firmware image and patched the recovery.PARTITION (this box has no ramdisk) from my phone with magisk v26.1 before copying the patched recovery back to PC, renaming and repacking the image.

I can't get the box to reboot with magisk showing as installed.

on the stock rom the built-in root allowed me to reboot to recovery which activates magisk when the box boots, trying similar on the sbx_x96max_plus2_m_aosp_9_10.img build doesn't work

is there a way to get magisk to boot up from recovery please... ANYONE !?
