    Geekbox hard reset instructions.

    Hello
    I am looking for instruction on how to hard reset my geekbox.
    I tried upgrading the firmware to android 6 but the device was not identified in the "Factory Tool".
    After a couple of reset attempts with the "Update" Key pressed, the device turned on with only purple lights.

    Can you please assist?
    Do you have any techincal support for this device or instructions on how to hard reset it?

          Hi, I found this site during my big G searches, however, the point where they say to shorten is not the same on my machine.
          I'm afraid to do damage by shortening the wrong pins.

          Can you help to point me to the right pins?

                Hi ,

                here the Problem begins , your Nand has not the typical solder Points , so it must unbricked by

                shorten some other contacts on the back , i think near the Nand , but which i do not know ,

                maybe a PCB Datasheet would help ??? , better someone that already did that , maybe on

                Picture 1 the two silver Points above 15/..... Date , but not sure ,

                greetings / gefattern

                  This site has schematics and other stuff. I have no experience with that site, I cannot vouch for its content.

                  A github with some Geekbox stuff. As before, I cannot vouch for the site's content.

                  Hope you find a solution.
