That's just the thing, there are no eMMC pins on the Iron

Which one I should short of those?

[scooter2014]

That' the connection for refreshing. I forget witch ones but I did get it seen using those. I think it was middle 2 but forget sorry.

[Jancales]

ITried all combinations and nothing. I see it refreshing, but nothing connects

2 boxes ready for the bin.

After all, the dust bin is where all Magicsee Iron boxes belong.

What to do if you have flashed the U2+ firmware to your Magicsee Iron S905X and USB Burning tool will not recognise it any more.

You have followed all possible suggestions, but it just don't connect any more.

Make bootable sd card from stock firmware with Amlogic Burn Card Maker.

You can download burn card make from here. from here https://chinagadgetsreviews.com/down...er-v2-0-2.html

Get the Update&Backup APK that works on your Android version. I will attach the one that works on Android 7.1.1

To the bootable SD card you created with burn card maker you add a fake ( dud) zip file which is called update.zip I add one to this post as well.

Insert sd card and open Update&Backup app, and select the update.zip , then select wipe data and press update.

Your box will reboot, and you will see the Android puppet that says upgrading for a second or 2, then your screen turns green.

You can wait until eternity, the green screen is all you will get. If you remove sd card and reboot box it won't even connect to your tv any more and the LED stay red.Insert sd card and green screen again.

Congratulations, you are now the proud owner of a completely bricked box, it probably will be still usable as a doorstop though.

But wait.........................connect it again to Usb Burning Tool, and it will now connect from the first attempt, even without pressing reset button.

Just connect USB cable and you are connected.

You can now flash the stock firmware again.

Now flash sc firmware your finished lol.... see and you where ready to toss. All good. or refresh u2 firmware again for proof of concept

Concept is proven, remember I had 2 boxes with the U2 firmware, and have since tried a few other U2 firmwares lol.

I actually like that U2+ ATV, because it very clean, but it runs hotter than the Sc ATV.

Give me a shout if you know of another ATV that runs cool on this box/

[Jancales]

It's official, I have a brick now.

Tried to flash the M8S+ rom as explained in post 11>13, and everything went well.

First flashed the U2+ ROM, then flashed the M8S+ rom with the modified updater-script file, and when rebooted I got the Nexus screen for about 5 seconds, then HDMI loses connection.

Repeated as many times always the same result.

Now no connection to usb burner anymore, and the trick with the sd card obviously also doesn't work since I neither can access update&backup app nor TWRP.

Shit happens.

[Jancales]

Scooter Can you please agonize that grey mass of you one more time to make sure which pins exactly you shortened to get in Mask Rom mode?

I have tried all combinations of the pins you suggested without any result.

Thanks

Post 21 now this not know what you did now. Can' understand why you flashed what u said bricked it again?

Can't get any further than staic boot screen, so can't do the update.

EDIT:

Turned out to be firmware issue - even though I downloaded it from official website magicsee have newer firmware for boxes manufactured in 2018.
I e-mailed the support and they shared with me download link for 2018 July version.

Hi guys,

I recently got a MagicSee S905X Iron TV Box with Android 7.1.2, unfortunately out of the box its not working well and I tried to flash via SD Card new firmware (20170630) - apparently this killed it and I got no video sent to the TV via HDMI.
After the apparently unsuccessful update there is only red led light switching on. The good news seems to be that box is recognized by USB Burning tool.
I tried downloading newer release - (20171105). Now when I connect my PC to the box using USB (less than 1m) the device is recognized but despite trying all configurations (Erase flash ticked/or not, normal erase, force erase etc). I don't go any further than 4% [0x10303004]Romcode/Switch status/Identify/Error result

Any suggestions? I've tried doing it with and toothpick in the AV hole, with USB power only as well power cord connected - in both cases the optical slot flashes red.
