Android Tv Box Firmware Question - Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers

Hi All I was wondering if somebody might be able to help me.
I was given an android tv box for xmas and recently it has been resetting itself everytime I try to use it.
I've tried doing a factory reset but same thing keeps happening so was going to do a firmware reset only problem is I'm unsure what numbers have to match to get the right firmware.
My Device is a :-
Tonbux
Model number:
MXQ
Android version:
4.4.2
Build number:
KOT49H.20150820 test-keys
Kernel version:
3.10.33

I've tried loads of sites but none of them match the same Build number as my box.
I didn't want to use any of the other firmware that didn't match my Build number just incase I damaged the box, I am capable of doing the reset but only if some1 could confirm if the Build number has to be a complete match or if I'm able to use another I.
I found this latest 1 which is the closest to my number but no luck with exact match anywhere :
KOT49H.20150915 test-keys

Help Appreciated thx in advance.

Can anyone jump in and provide some help? I'm having a similar issue as the OP. I have a generic Android TV box which is unusable with a lot of crapwares. I just want to erase everything and install a vanila version of Android on it. Here's some info of the box:
- CPU: Rockchip RK3066, 2x ARM [email protected] 1.61GHz
- GPU: Mali 400 MP
Edit: I can kind of get to the recovery mode but no menu appears, just the Andoid robot laying down and a red sign. Before that it shows CloudTVBox so I guess that's the (brand) name of the box!
Thanks a lot

Ok so after some research, I think my main issue now is that I don't have the recovery menu, only the Android robot lying and a red sign. Can anyone provide some help? Thanks

I think you need to research unbrick your device. If someone can tell me how to export my firmware I could send you mine. Here are my following specs down to the chipset (i had to open my box to find out).

Can i updrade my Head Unit?

Hello,
I recently bought a Pumpkin Andoird Head Unit for my E46 (I'm not allowed to post links yet so I cant link it here)
It is a little bit buggy sometimes (apps randomly start at startup or sound doesnt work till I restart the device) so I was wondering if I could upgrade the thing or maybe install an other rom on it. After I googled a while i found out that it depends on the mcu wether I can update my device or not (am I misunderstanding things here?). So I looked up my MCU version but couldnt relate to any of the MCU versions I found. If there is something I'm missing or if there is a thread where all of this is explained I'm sorry.
Here are the informations that i get from about device:
Modelnumber: rk3188
Android version: 4.4.4
Baseband version: unknown
Kernal Version: 3.0.36+
Build number:
Alex:5201-20160321-125320-v3(4752)
TFT:5201-20151231-213308-V01
MCU:5201-20160321-113500-V01
Screen resolution is: 1024x600
I hope someone can help me
Best regards

Do you have a joying type id?
Which firmware did you try to flash?
Do you have a fan and/or heatsink on your unit? The Joying units can become quite hot during flashing and even too hot: the 1GB units even more.. That can also cause the boot loop. It might even help to take it partially out of the dash and use a hair dryer on cooling stand via the top of one of the holes in the side (and then of course: install a fan!)

THanks for the reply.

From the info i gave, what is type of HU?
Additional Info. The physical look is the same like in this video:

I overlooked the Android version 6.0.1 on your PX5. This means you have a QD unit. Joying used to have an upgrade from 6 to 8, but that has disappeared. You can not simply flash an android 8 version onto a version 6.0.1.
Contact Joying at one of their email addresses.
Youtube video that i give is upgrade from 6 to 8. Do you mean this tutorial?

I know it is the upgrade video. Joying did have a special upgrade firmware version some 8-10 (?) months ago. It is no longer on their blog. And simply flashing a version 8 onto a version 6 does not work. That's why I advised to contact Joying.

You may want to try 126 or 444455556666. Both of these work for my head unit, which brings up two different screens.

Can anyone help? Also can i update andriod 8 to newer. I bought the carplay domgle but andriod auto wont show up and i cant ge ipods to work. Help please
Wow no response...
Anyone anyone?
I have the exact same unit, which i purchased almost 2 years ago. The MCU is 2018 and outdated. I just started having issues with the wifi not wanting to turn on, actualy it goes directly back to off as soon as you press it. Normally it auto connects to my hot spot. Is there anyone that can help walk through an update ? Secaine is non responsive on MCU updates. Well actually they responded but i will have better luck jumping off of a 50 story building than getting help from them.
