AmLogic USB Burning Tool is recommended for flashing (confirmed to work with version 2.1.6.8). Use Google to find download link for the tool.
Flashing tutorial:
To connect your Alfawise A9 TV box to your PC, use USB A Male-to-male cable. Plug the cable in the USB port FURTHER from the SD card slot. Before plugging the cable to your PC, hold the reset button (behind the A/V jack there is a switch, use a toothpick to press it). If the device is recognized, you can start flashing in USB Burning Tool.
Unbricking tutorial (NAND Chip Short Method):
If your device is bricked, you may have to use the NAND chip short method to let your box recognized by PC). To do this, connect your box to your PC with the same cable as mentioned earlier, and if the device is powered on (red light), short the nands using a paperclip/screwdriver as shown in the picture (see the attachment!). Pressing the reset button is not required. After that, the PC should recognize the device and you can start flashing.
