Hello everybody,
I bought the SCISHION V88 Piano TV Box - RK3328 4GB RAM + 16GB ROM Android 7.1, and I made the mistake (without knowing the results) to install the SuperSU app from google play (the box is rooted, but do not ever install the SuperSU).
The result is that after rebooting my box (asked by the SuperSU app), it stucks on the Android Logo but factory recovery is still accessible when pressing the reset button.
I managed to do a factory reset via factory recovery without success, still stuck on boot on the Android Logo.
I managed to fix it by installing the firmware uploaded by changonc in freaktab.com.
You can find the firmware from his post.

The tools that I have used are RockChip_Batch_Tool_v1.8 and DriverAssitant_v4.4 in windows 10 x64.
I installed the DriverAssistant_v4.4
Then executed the RockChip_Batch_Tool_v1.8
Loaded the firmware bin file downloaded from changonc's post
rk3328_7.1_box_RX4_SSV6051P_tongwang_RKMC-update_20171228.bin
Then connected the box with a usb cable Male A to Male A, on the box's usb port which is located close to the piano keys (it is the one on the edge and not the blue)
The moment that it connects with the usb it switches on.
Immediately I pressed the reset button and keep it pressed until the box 1 in RockChip Batch Tool turned yellow.
Then I pressed the upgrade button.
The procedure started, and the first time it ended with an error.
Then I repeated the same procedure and it finished successfully.
After* I disconnected it and connected it to the TV, and it started loading.
Be very patient when on the Android boot logo, it can take about 10-15 mins to load the android the first time.
hi, thanks for the writeup. After installing this new firmware, what is the 'Android Patch Level' and kernel build date? You can find it from settings->About Phone
http://www.scishiontvbox.com/firmware-for-scishion-v88-piano-tv-box shows that there is a updated firmware available, but there is no link provided to download it.
Thank you. Today i followed the steps you have given above and updated my v88 piano tv box.
This scishion v88 piano tv box is a wonderful device with 4G RAM, but the stock ROM running this box is not great. They have removed some essential components and it is impossible to get an alternate launcher or other components to work on this.
i wonder if there is a custom android ROM for this device.

I have TV Box CS918S ( Allwinner A31 CS918S 2GB/16GB 5MP ).
For the past few weeks I had problems with starting my TV Box.
It took ages to run first screen. Mostly what I can see it is logo with name MediaBox on me TV screen.
Right now my TV Box won't start and I can see only starting logo on TV.
I decided to upgrade frimware with original software.
I used PhoenixSuit 1.06 and select recovery mode.
But on a recovery screen I wasn't able to select any available options.
My remote didn't working in recovery mode. Selecting 2 button on my remote I rebooted my TV Box. Without any results.
I decided to use ADB SHELL. Commend line on my laptop. I was able to connetc and see everything on my TV Box.
I did wipe cache but nothing big happend. TV Box still not starting but I can connect with laptop and PhoenixSuit or ADB SHELL.
I did adb reboot bootloader and I think it was not a good idea. I got stuck on first screen with MBOX logo on it.
Right now I can't connect my TV Box to the laptop and PhoenixSuit and ADB SHELL.
Any idea what I can do to wake up my TV Box ? Maybe there is a hardware reset of CS918S ?
Hi, so i am having issues with my Tanix TX2 RK3229 2GB/16GB box , i am in the process of a paypal dispute over this but if i can find a solution myself i will be more than happy to just DIY.
Basically the box froze for no reason and now will not go further than the ANDROID screen , i can boot into recovery but the only available update i can get is the 7.1 update which fails ( for me and many others ) all other firmwares including stock are .IMG and recovery does not see them on the SDCARD, the device is NOT picked up by my PC when connected via USB to USB , so , the only way i can see past this issue ( unless a magic version of the stock firmware arises ) is to try and flash via Uart ( i assume thats possible ) but i have zero experience with tv boxes , Uart and quadcopter flight controllers Yes tv boxes Nope.
Is there a really simple set of instructions on flashing a tv box via the Uart that i can read over ? or a simple way of turning the stock firmware.img into a firmware.zipp so that the recovery can use it to flash back to stock ?
I would be grateful for any pointers in the right direction

Use Rockchip batch tool ..install drivers for rockchip from .exe from driver tool
Connect hdmi to tv ..connect to pc via usb to usb
Using a toothpick to press & hold reset button until drivers install
Run batch tool to select firmware image file & flash

I have an Android TV and I wanted to disable its launcher. Because I wanted to install my own launcher !
So I connected to it via ADB and made some changes.
Then the TV software crashed and when I restart the TV, I just see the first welcome screen of TV and nothing happens after that.
I think I need to factory reset the TV and I have nothing to do that.
My TV brand is UNEVA.
Does any body know nothing about that ?

On my fire tv edition I had to hold the power button a few second with the tv turned off and a few second after the logo starts up. The physical power button on the tv. You can try on the remote too, the same way. This is how you get to tv recovery on a fire tv edition.
Actually I didn't understand what to do !
Could you please write the steps again by detail ?
thank you
Do you have an android tv or a smart tv? Is it a streaming device or the tv itself is not working? Turn off tv, hold down power button while you plug the tv back on and wait for a start up screen then the recovery screen.
Yes I have and Android TV.
It was working correctly , but after some changes in firmware files using ADB, it has been stuck in startup screen.
Because of that I needed to go into recovery mode.
I followed up your instructions, but nothing happened.
My TV brand is UNEVA. It is a Chinese brand and it is not famous at all.
But its firmware name is "Wisdom Share" which is a bit famous.

You should be able to find the stock images for the current Android operating system on Google's website and then you can just reflash those
Your uneva brand Tv is an Android tv, and I assumed you connect to adb remotely. Can you check if you can still connect to adb? If you are messing with adb then you should know recovery mode, you need to get into recovery to factory reset.
Yes UNEVA is an Android TV and I used to connect to it using adb , but after making some changes in OS files (in shell mode) , the TV damaged and now I just can ping the TV and can not connect to it using adb.
So finally I think I need to get into factory reset mode.
But the problem is that I don't know where is factory reset page?
watch this video, it is how i factory reset my tv when i couldnt get pass the tv logo. www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-kdQjSE__A
I watch the video.
I did this bust it didn't work and my TV does not turn ON !
It means that my TV is different from the Toshiba model in YouTube video
every brand of tv have their own hard factory reset buttons to press when you cannot access the software of the tv. you have a tv i have never heard of maybe you can get a hold of pdf of your tv instructions. Good luck.
Unfortunately I could not find its Guide Book. It is almost a no-name Chinese brand and because of that, I thought maybe I can find a way using the TV's android software (Wisdom Share)
But anyway, thank you for your help.
I still have to search for a way and would be thankful if anyone can help.
Here you have recovery files I got from chinese store AUTOTOP when asked from another account (on which they havent blocked me)
Android 8.1 with "bmw os 1.09"
BMW-8227L_demo.zip
drive.google.com
There are instructions how to proceed recovery but shortly: You have to format pendrive to fat32 and put folder CKXUPG on it. Like for example E:\CKXUPG\~files that are in CKXUPG~. Then You should plug that pendrive in one of USB cables from radio (I dont remember which one, I tried both till success). There is a reset button on left side of radio that you can use for trying another cable, you dont need to unplug car battery or whatsoever
There is no newer version than Android 8.1. All androids 8+ works worse than this one and are faked androids 10....
I also have version of "bmw os 1.26 with fake android 10":
BMWID6_OS_1.26--10.0.zip
drive.google.com
and version "bmw os 1.31" but I think i didnt manage to update to that version:
XRC_BMW_OS_1.31.zip
drive.google.com
p.s. from what I remember if everything is OK there should be some console output running in left top corner right few seconds after booting. If it doesnt happen you get stuck on bootlogo and have to reset device.
BTW. dont try to use Media button or "Your BMW tab" untill you configure headunit in factory settings (few times click on android version and then inserting 8888 code. If you dont have CCC/CIC and you selected wrong options the headunit is trying to display signal from CCC/CIC and you're basically stuck.
hello do you have the mcu update please cordially
After spending 2 days on the forums and softbricking my device for several times, here's my 2 cents about on how to do the upgrade from Andorid 10 to Android 11 or even to downgrade ... on the HA units from Dasaita.
First of all, a small disclaimer:
This worked for me, it might not work for you.
You might end up in bootloop, blackscreen, softbrick, be aware of this risk
My device is a Dasaita Max11, I wanted to downgrade to A10, in order to get Magisk and Hal9k v5 mod installed.
After purchasing modinstaller 3pro, and trying to install Andorid10 I ended up in a blackscreen. Hopefully @Hal9k_ will be able to fix this in his further releases.
Remember, this was ONLY tested and worked on a MTCE_HA device. A rather new model sold by Dasaita last december. If you have a HTC or other device this has no or litlle importance to you, since the images atached are ONLY for HA devices. Also, if you have an older Dasaita model, it might not work as described bellow:
What you'll need:
- a USB A to USB A cable (as short as possible)
- the purple usb plug cable (labeled carplay/android auto) that comes out of the back of de divice (this is the only one that recognized my device in bootloader mode. Feel free to try the others, in function of what configuration your device might have.
- driver assistant (see google drive link)
- flash tool (see google drive link)
- full system image of Android 11 or 10 regarding what you want.
- a pin or paperclip to push the reset button.
The procedure is rather simple:
1. Download and install the driver assistant (google drive link at the end), run it to install the drivers on your windows machine
2. Unpack rkdevtool and run the exe (google drive link at the end). At this point the program will display a huge message in the bottom part saying: "no devices found". That's good.
3. Connect the Usb cable to the HU and to the PC, while the device is turned off (like no power, not in sleep mode)
4. Push the reset button and keep it pushed. While doing this turn on the device. At this point if everything is setup correctly you should hear a notification sound from windows and RKDevTool should say: "Found one bootloader device".
4a) If you only hear the notification and the device is not found in boot loader mode by RKDevTool, check Device Manager and try to reinstall the drivers / install other drivers, try another USB port. (at this point, the usbA to usbA might be to long if the device manager shows: unrecognized device)
4b) If you hear no sound, RKDevTool still shows no devices: Turn off the HU, (really of, no power). After 10-30 seconds turn it on, while it is on, press the reset button and keep it pressed (even after side leds flashing) until the device enters bootloader mode and it is recognized by the RKDevTool.
4c) If none of the above work, switch the usb port on the HU, or try another combination of reset pushing (like trying to enter recovery)
4d) If the PC won't recognize the device in bootloader mode, it might be a situation in which the device is not capable of this, and you might need to take it apart and use the direct SOM flash method ... search the forums.
During step 4 the HU display should remain black, so the only indication of being in bootloader mode and connected to the PC, is the windows notification sound and the messege displayed by RkDevTool.
5)With the device in bootloader mode, connected to the PC, in RKDevTool go to the tab that says: Upgrade firmware. Click on the line(empty rectangle) that says firmware and browse for the desired android img. (10 or 11). See drive link. Attention: the zips from the drive MUST be unpacked and the update.img must be loaded in RkDevTool.
6)After selecting the desired update.img, click on the ERASE FLASH button, wait until the process completes. If everything goes well, the device should reboot in maskrom mode.
7)After the device enters maskrom mode, RkDevTool shoul display the message: "Found one MASKROM device". At this point, just click the UPGRADE button. The new android is flashed on the HU. When the process is finished the HU reboots ITSELF. If that doesn't happen after 1-2max, cut the power and power on.
It should boot in the new android.
Final thoughts after 2 days of thinkering:
This worked for me to downgrade from 11 to 10, and also to upgrade from 10 to 11. Be aware it might NOT work for you!
In theory, if one can get the device in bootloader mode it should work also to upgrade from andoid 9 to 10. This is just a theory and I did not test it.
The advantages of Android 10 over 11 are (for me):
- root access via Magisk (for the time being I could not root 11 with any of the tutorials found online)
- less crap and restrictions imposed by the growing Google censorship..
- the possibility to install the Hal9k v5 mod, one of the greatest and customizable mods ever made for MTCD/MTCE devices.
- using both 11 and 10 I could very certainly tell you, that (from my point of view), 11 has no advantages over 10, nor in stability nor in sharpness.
The images from the google drive are vivid for android 10 and max for android 11. Again, this are FULL images, not just OTA. I put them here after endless hours of searching the net. I respectfully thank to those that took the time to upload them on xda and dasaita forums.
Once you install the base 10 or eleven you can easily switch from vivid to max via update.zip flashed from an usbstick.
Also: there are many tutorials that involve a sdcard, sdcardtool and different combinations of zip images. I tested them ALL using the side sd card slot of the device. NONE OF THEM worked for me. I found the OTG flash method to be the fastest and most reliable, once I figured out how to connect de HU to my pc in bootloader mode.

Nice! Do you perhaps know where to find the files for other headunits? I have a MTCE_HT and have no idea where to look!
