Hi all
I have a challenge I would like your help with.
I bought the Cx-919, and after a day or so I've decided to flash it with a better ROM.
Searching the internet I found this ROM, and decided to give it a chance:
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...-kitkat-v1-new-firmware-for-cx-921-and-cx-919
But since I had some bad flashes of tablets and phones in the past I've decided I would need a backup of my current rom.
I've accomplished this by using this method:
http://freaktab.com/forum/developme...p-your-rk-device-rom-with-the-new-rk-2-1-tool
I did it twice, just in case I did something wrong.
By this time I had no problem with the drivers, I have installed them successfully and both the RK2.1 and the finless ROM flash tool V 1.37 had no problem finding my device while it was connected to the computer.
When I started the flash itself things started to go bad.
The finless ROM flash tool V 1.37 log had said-
Start to run
Start to test device
Test device ok
Start to download IDB ok
Download IDB OK
Start to reset the device
Reset device failed
Device not found
And after that the status bar at the bottom said no found RKAndoroid rock usb.
I have waited for about 6-10 minutes thinking this is part of the process, before trying re -find the device.
Also the LED of the device had turned off.
I've tried to reattach the device but with no success, the computer just did not recognized my cx 919 attached.
I have tried to restart my computer, reinstalling the drivers, attach the cx 919 to different ports, and even tried to boot it to recovery. Alas nothing worked. The device is dead.
After looking in different forums I saw this post about bricked cx-919 and possible solutions:
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...How-to-boot-CX919-in-quot-Mask-ROM-mode-quot=
http://forum.xda-developers.com/har...x919-ii-completely-bricked-tv-signal-t2859564
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSjaB522QJs
http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...players-aa/11230-unbrick-cx919-circuit-method
And since I had nothing to lose I've decided to give it a try.
Alas something went wrong yet again! As I opened my cx-919 I've noticed something is different in my cx-919.

First thing that was different- was that I had a thermal cover over the chips.

And since I did not saw any visible NAND chip I figured it must be under the cover.
So I removed the cover, and still couldn't find the Chip I'm looking for.

Maybe it's in the back I thought, but no.
I hope one of you can maybe rise to the challenge, and help me find a way to make this device recognizable again by my computer.
So I kept on trying to fix the device, But still with no successes.
Since my device is built quit differently from other devices and uses different chips set, I figured I will try and understand what the different chips does.
Maybe by that I could find out which one is the nand chip. and try to short its 7-8 legs or 5-6 legs and get it to MASK ROM mode.
there are a few tutorials out there about how to this in the Micron chips, but i cant post any of them cause i'm a new user... so you would have to google "CX919 mask rom"
and i followed one of those.
so the small one at the bottom (RTL87) as far as i can understand is the Ethernet controller, by real take.
the one in the middle is SK hynix this is a ddr-3 chip.
that only leaves me with the rockchip RK3128 chip to be the nand chip.
now all i have to do is figuring out if there are any legs i can short together like 7-8 in the micron chip in order to get this device in MaskRom mode.
Then i need to understand how to short them- since these chip's legs are underneath the chip and not on its side.
so far no success, i will post on further development.
So I gather no new developments.........I have the same problem with one of my sticks......oh well seems to be a solid bricked stick......
I have the same device. Might have something you can try.

Hi,
I am developper and I have a HTC Wizard.
I already have some experience in pocket PC development and I would like to install linux on my HTC.
The problem is I cannot even send command through a terminal.
I read a tutorial about how I can boot into "boot mode" (Press Power+Recording and after I can see the gradients color).
After I start a terminal application and I choose USB but I never got a prompt.
I don't undertand because I tried with different terminals and I have checked that ActiveSync is disabled.
What am i doing wrong ???
If some HTC wizard and Linux guru were here, maybe they could help me to start.
I am trying to do this, as well. But from what i understand it is VERY difficult.
to BOOT linux, you need 2 things: a kernel that can run on the omap and a program that will LOAD the kernel.
the omap has an arm926 processor. the omap is a cpu+other things.
to boot the kernel we need something like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loadlin
also we have to find a way to make the kernel show some output:
1. serial
2. lcd
also some input.
1. serial
2. keyboard
we have to compile an arm kernel and we have to find a way to boot that kernel. i have slackware linux on my laptopand i am trying to make arm simple kernel
the bootloader i can start, but i can not find a way to talk to it. i have searched and asked but i have not found anything. i am angry! i want to remove the bootloader it does not do anything! argh!
please if you are serious about this, tell me in an email or a personal message (PM)[/url][/list][/list]
look at this! http://garux.sourceforge.net/
Look at Xanadux on this forum's wiki. It might give you some clues as to the way forward. You could join in the effort. 8)

I know all this, what I just want to know is how to interact with my HTC in boot mode because if I cannot even send command how could I install a boot loader. I am trying to do things in steps.
The first one is to understand how I can dialog with HTC...
Use mtty and press enter to get a prompt.
I noticed someone out there has tried to make a lcd driver for the omap850. We need to know more about the device.
i do not think we need an lcd driver. we need only find the address of the framebuffer. i do not know... :/
I'm having the same problem.
Tried to install.....cannot even login.
How do I get the Hyper Terminal to talk to my Himalaya connect to my Windows XP using USB ?
jtag
dare i say we skip the cruddy boot loader and explore the possabilities of a jtag connection?
Another Linux on Wizard topic
Hello,
Please check http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=49560 for another approach in getting Linux to run on the Wizard!

Folks,
I got a new Samsung focus (Re 1.3) yesterday , followed a tutorial from youtube to install custom rom. Everything went good , like installing MAGLDR and later reset and installing ROM. After installing ROM, the guy told that teh SAMSUNG logo appears for a long time and we have to poweroff by removing the battery. I did the same but nothing was working on my mobile. It starts booting shows samsung screen and stucks at the following screenshot, i tried to connect it to laptop as it showed in screenshot,but even hours dint helped anything. Now i can only see the download mode , not even the format mode. I searched how to reset to factory setting, but nothing was found useful. I found two posts one with instructions and files are corrupted, one post with files but no instructions. please help me with this.
Thanks,
WY.

Flash a stock rom from here (UCJK2 for Focus revision 1.3 / UCJK3 for 1.4).
Here's a flash tutorial.
Thank you very much for your help.. but some reason my mobile was not detected in the loader..everything was green but Start button is disabled and the mobile was not shown in the ports section.
Some how i am able to start it in format mode cancel and it went to magldr cmd..installed everything and this time works perfect.
Appreciate your help but i still dint get why start button was disable.

To "green" the port in the flasher, unplug the USB from your comp, wait about 2-3 seconds and plug it back. Just before flashing (after all are loaded).
As EnderPsp said u should always start the downloader first and then connect the phone in download mode.
i tried either way.. first attempt i connected mobile after loading the files as said in tutorial.. but start button was disabled and the mobile is not shown in ports section of the flasher..but it was shown clearly in system bar that mobile is connected and even safe remove was showing the mobile name. sorry to ask so many questions, its just in case it will be very useful for others in future.. thank you very much for your valuable replies.

Try it in another computer, one that has as less apps as possible.
Hi guys.
After triying everything i know about and searching on lots of forums and google, i decided to give good'ol XDA a shot.
Anyway, someone from my family asked me if the phone he just got from his brother would take whats app. It was a HTC HD Mini with the stock WM6.5, so i said "i don't think so", "but hey, you know what? i can install Android in it, and then you could use it like any other Android device!"
...yeah, good idea, for sure.
So i searched, and decided to follow a guide posted on HTCMania.com, wich was the translation of a ROM thread here, on xda, this one: LINK
I followed everything, and i got to the step where you have to execute a .bat file called "install LK.bat". A CMD window appeared, but something went really wrong. Or not, i dont know, the fact is that, suddenly, the phone's screen changed from black with green texts, to this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It will stay like that, no matter what you do, say, pray, etc... . In order to turn off the device, you have to remove the battery.
So i investigate a little more, and try to upload the stock WM ROM via SSPL. I do it in the bootloader menu (what a wonderfull sight after all the good years that my beloved HTC Prophet gave me...).
FAIL!!!! It says that i can go home and cry, because of an error called "ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID"
Wonderfull! so i start looking for every ROM i can think off, factory, cooked, everything. I try to install them via SD card naming the ruu "PHOTIMG", and then turning on the device with the bootloader, it starts loading it, "Loading..." "Checking..." "0028002 not allow". And back to the bootloader tri-color screen.
At this point, i dont know what to do, my phone is Spanish, the service provider is Movistar, but the phone is unlocked (i dont know if it was unlocked by someone, or if it never was locked in the first place).
There are a couple of SPA ROMs outhere, one is generic, and the other is Vodafone. Not to mention, neither of the two works.
PLEASE, if someone can help me in any way, it will be MUCH appreciated.
THX to all.
go to http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.p...wrong one,then it can't flash n say error. ..
Thanks for answering, but that page should sue me for excessive bandwidth usage, LOL. I've already tried lots of ROMs from there, but not a single one would get past 1%, they all spit out the same error: 294: Invalid vender ID
Hi all
I have one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/384770479698 in my 2006 Merc. its a MTK8667 Android 11 based unit. FF_866X is the device name, i'm sorry I do not know the MCU
I was sent some update files from the seller https://we.tl/t-UeDC40i6Ul XRC-8667 升级软件 Q腾实UI多合一-国外-1280x720_v32_20220223
Upgrade steps
1) Unzip after downloading (only unzip once)
2) Copy the file to the U disk
3) Connect the U disk while the power is on
4) The machine will automatically upgrade
5) If the machine cannot be upgraded, you need to press RES and keep touching the display with two fingers
during the update process it copied the superimage ok but then something came up in red but it came up to a kind of recovery and said erasing... it then rebooted it gets to the car logo screen, before android screen then goes to a blank screen with the following in bottom left corner...FASTBOOT MODE and wont go any further
I have pressed RST then two fingers on screen until i get "detected" but all i get is the same fastboot mode again,
I have redownloaded and extracted the firmware and reformatted my usb drive to fat32 and tried the whole process again and tried in both usb slots but no sucess...what can I do?? is it broken??
I have obtained other mtk8667 firmware files 8667.bin and 8667.upd from this topic https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/firmware-junsun-v1-8667q-8g-128g-vhd-qled.4405475/ on this forum but I have tried many different ones and it just wont read the usb, still just goes straight to fastboot mode....is anyone able to help me I have messaged the seller but no reply
So far I have tried about 7 or 8 different firmware versions, the sellers own, some junsun versions, ossuret versions even xtrons versions(all in correct format of 8667.bin and 8667.upd on root of usb formatted to fat32 but it does not read the usb.
The usb slots are still working as I can plug my phone in and it charges but the unit does not seem to have a full recovery mode

I have messaged the seller (brogotek) on ebay but no reply as yet which is strange as they have always replied very quickly.
Do you think it is fixable? it was bought in April and ebay advert states it comes with 12 months repair or replace warranty
There just seems no way to get into any kind of recovery mode

Why do you think there exist update for this tv box?
What you need is custom ROM like this.
[ROM] Aidan ROM [v9] [Netflix] [Prime Video] [Disney+] [S905X-S905W-S912-S905X2-S905Y2-S905X3-S905W4-S922] [Google Play Certified] [ATV 9]
Home Screen With Apps ^^^NEW Home Screen, Update From Play Store ^^^ Preinstalled Apps Initial Set Up Screen Initial Set Up Screen 2 About New Google Dream X Included Google Play Protect Certified This is My Android 9.0 Firmware, This...
forum.xda-developers.com
Thank you will try this rom
just tried to flash this rom and everything looked ok but when it boots up is says aidens custom rom then just hangs on a black screen with Android tv on tried to re flash but now it wont connect to my pc ?
guess you need to format userdata (aka factory reset) do you have access to fastboot/bootloader mode or recovery mode?
no tried holding the reset button when powering up but nothing happens
it wont even show anything on the screen now the remote control wont turn it on and off
remote only works on booted android. connect usb to PC and check the VID/PID in device manager (or lsusb linux)
the box wont show anything on screen now and wont connect to pc

think ive done the door stop mod
what is the output of lsusb for every port?
cant get the box to connect to pc nothing happens no sound to say its connected
started device manager with it plugged in but nothing shows up ?
you should at least get to the previous state splash screen as of post #4. did you power off completely? as last resort there is a method with short-circuiting pins for flashing mode. search for AmLogic bricked boxes recovery.
Yes I have tried all ways to connect but nothing on pc or screen
Will try brick recovery
