You have to hold the pin in reset button and plug in usb while holding the reset down, hold pin in reset button until burning starts could be 3 to five seconds

I have previously had a few of these boxes ranging from Android v5 through v6.0.1. Being generally satisfied with the product, I recently bought two more of these boxes which should have arrived with Android 6.0.1. As it turned out, they were flashed with a very bad version of 7.1.2.

LibreELEC

• Once I discovered that the box only has 1GB of RAM, I tried using the gxl_p212_1g.dtb device tree and managed to install LibreELEC on a flash card.
• Bluetooth works
• WiFi works
• HDMI Resolution: 1080p

Hi,

I have this exact box too. I like to install Libreelec in this TV box.


My issue is described here: https://discourse.coreelec.org/t/bla...-8-95-7/3124/3
I see that you were able to install Libreelec. Can you please tell me the steps you have done to get libreelec in this TV box please

I have tried these 3 different versions of LibreElec by kszaq with respective dtb trees for each of these 3 version (gxl_p212_1g.dtb), however exactly the same result, that is to say, this box started with sd card then shows s905x logo and then the screen becomes blank.

libreelec_7.0.3.012
libreelec_8.0.2e
libreelec_8.2.3.1

Please help.
Kind regards

AlexELEC/CoreELEC for amlogic working properly.

Thank you for your response.

I have now done this and still getting the Blank Screen after AMLOGIC log while trying to install ALEXElec


Steps Performed:

- Image used: https://github.com/AlexELEC/AlexELEC-AML/releases
Name - AlexELEC-S905.X96.arm-2.3.10.img.gz
- dtb used: https://github.com/AlexELEC/S905-tre...xl_p212_1g.dtb
- updated the dtb file name to dtb.img
- I have used rufus to burn the SD card
- I have connected to the Box via adb
- I have used the following command to update:

```
adb reboot update
```

I have the same experience with coreelec and my issue is well described here:

Now I checked LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2.4.2-C2.img.gz ,unpacked , installed the image with Etcher on SD, replaced the dtb.img on https://mega.nz/#!K6w1VYbJ!nUdC3kHFX...PLt72ylBYe_o94, put SD in a box, turned on, when you press reset , everything works.

Has anyone installed TWRP on v.7.1.2?
I have a TWRP backup Android v.6.01 https://mega.nz/#!z3om3SIR!obr0DloFY...3YjTfvQuA-BoDA, but I dont know how to get it back. This version supports 1080P.

Yes I have.
I have uploaded the TWRP image and instruction here.

https://mega.nz/#F!N5tjCCSB!TfUuraPOmwYEe11EYctgOQ

Let me know if you have any issues.


Here is the instructions again:

```
This TWRP reovery works in Docooler_M9S_Pro_s905x_2G/16G_p212
TWRP Version 3.2.1-0

How to install:

Copy this file recovery.img in a sd card and put in the sd slot.

Start the docooler box at recovery mode (press the reset button inside spdif hole) and connect the power.

The box will reboot to TWRP recovery.

The install TWRP permanently via TWRP console (dd). See the screenshot. (photo_2018-12-31_20-40-54). The sd card with recovery.img needs to be in the sd slot.
```

Issues: I have tried now 2 times to follow above instructions and both times my DoCooler box starts to TWRP Recovery and do not install LibreElec.

I currently have hx_s905x_Nougat_256x4_528m_20171030_1134_ZNT_20171 10107 rom installed. (Android 7.1.2)

```
2. Unpack
3. installed the image with Etcher on SD
4. Deleted the dtb.img on the sd card
5. Download dtb.img from here: https://mega.nz/#!K6w1VYbJ!nUdC3kHFX...PLt72ylBYe_o94
6. Copy this dtb.img on the SD card.
7. Put this SD card in the SD card Slot in the docooler box.
8. Press the reset button inside the SPDIF pinhole.
9. Insert the power cord.


Output:

2. Box enters TWRP recovery

I read a little more from where I have downloaded the image LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2.4.2-C2.img.gz


https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread/12...4119#post94119

```
This ODROID C2 version (32 bit) is update compatible with kszaq LE versions:
LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2.4.2-C2.tar
LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2.4.2-C2.img.gz
The ARM 32bit C2 version above is NOT compatible with aarch64 - 64bit official LE C2 versions, but you can change to 32bit by SSH logging in and issuing this command before a .tar update:
touch /storage/.update/.nocompat
```
So it appears I was trying to install a 32 bit version of this image to a 64bit AMLOGIC Box and perhaps thus the issue here of the rebooting to recovery.

I am NOT able to folow this part of the instruction.

```
but you can change to 32bit by SSH logging in and issuing this command before a .tar update:
touch /storage/.update/.nocompat
```

Any help is apprecaited.
Thank you.

Has anyone tried the atvxperience rom on the M9s?

I did and it did not work.

[hannah]

Is there any Android TV Rom for this box, please?

I have tried atvxperience rom, PoisonATV V4.8 S905X but this box does not load these roms.

Am looking for an Android TV Rom if you know one, please share a link?
