Scishion V88 mini 1/8 GB, RK3229, wifi 6051p - Android 6, 7 and 8 firmware

[Gustav]

Scishion V88 mini 1/8 GB, RK3229, wifi 6051p - Android 6.0.1, 7.1.2 and 8.1.0 firmware

My motherboard Scishion V88 mini 1/8 GB, RK3229, wifi 6051p is: MX4MN-V13

Google translator:

I spent the last year searching for a suitable firmware for this TV box.
I tried about 20 of them. Half of them sent me a TV box into the brick (I had to open the TV Box and use a screwdriver to reset the NAND chip). From the other half are only 4 firmware suitable for this TV box (all four of them work wifi chip 6051p and remote control).

All firmware uploads as "Restore" - not "Upgrade".
USB (OTG) to upload firmware using a computer is the third in order (see picture).

Here they are:

Android 6.0.1
rk322X_6.0_box_MX1_V88-MARS-II_SSV6051p_SpecTek_flash-update_20171229.img
Boot version: 2.32

It is the official (yet only) firmware published on China Gadgets Reviews Firmwares

Android 6.0.1
rk322X_6.0_box_MX4N_SSV6051p_SpecTek_flash-update_20171011.img
Boot version: 2.32

This firmware is about 15-20 percent faster than rk322X_6.0_box_MX1_V88-MARS-II_SSV6051p_SpecTek_flash-update_20171229.img

Android 7.1.2
Leelbox IR
Boot version: 2.37

I found this firmware on the Russian 4PDA site

Download file "Leelbox IR - Android 7.1.2 for Scishion V88 mini 1-8 GB MX4MN-V13.zip"
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_0f...ew?usp=sharing


Android 8.1.0
RK3229_HK1_MINI_SSV6051_8.1.0_20181217.2200.img
Boot version: 2.38

I found this firmware on the Russian 4PDA site

On this page, this is the only version that has a color space RGB8 bit switch if a pink screen appears on an old TV. When you first press the RGB8 switch, the screen turns green - just turn the TV box off and on, and the green/pink screen will no longer appear.

WARNING!
On the China Gadgets Reviews Firmwares website, there are newer versions of the HK1 mini RK3229 TV box: however, they have the 2.54 and 2.56 boot versions that will send the TV box to the brick. Only the noroot firmware version 2.38, which is listed there, can be installed - but in this noroot version (2.38) from China Gadgets Reviews Firmwares about half of the apk in the Google Store is not showing - noroot version is faulty.

To upload this firmware, use FactoryTool v1.52 (Android will not start with BatchTool) !!!

IMPORTANT INFO: I apologize very much, but by February 7, 2020, 07:55 (Slovak time), there was a link to the bad "noroot" version of HK1 mini Android 8.1.0. The right version is now available for download: this version is not listed on China Gadgets Reviews Firmwares. Excuse me. I'm going to cry to the corner of the room.

IMPORTANT INFO 2: (published February 21, 2020)
Windows 10 with the new update will not run Factory Tool v1.52 or any other versions. If you have the same problem, use a computer running a different version of Windows to run Factory Tool v1.52. In Windows 7 Pro, the Factory Tool v1.52 is still working properly. You can upgrade the Android 6 and 7 versions listed here with RockChip Batch Tool v1.8, which works properly on Windows 10. Android 8 restore Scishion V88 mini 1/8 GB only using Factory Tool 1.52 (RockChip Batch Tool v1.8 does not run the first time Android 8 starts properly).

someone tried it on the v88 mini II 16GB/2GB??

[mindl]

I just installed 8.1 on a A95X_r1 and it works. Previously had the 7.1.2 leelbox but was unable to change the launcher... gave up trying.
Has root, and can run latest lawnchair launcher. So far pleased but still fiddling. Attached a photo of my box opened up.

[Violencia73]

I just tried the Android 7.1.2 Leelbox IR Boot version: 2.37 version on my v88 mini II and it worked ... but the wifi didn't what could I do to fix it? i will try version 8.0

[mindl]

I never had any wifi issues. Not sure.

Android 8 perfect in my MX9 box RK3229 6051p 8GB / 1GB. Thank you very much.

[Pljushevij]

For my box version in Android 8.0 sound doesn't work. Restore to factory defaults doesn't help. Device is connected to TV by HDMI. With Android 6 and 7 no problem - sound working.

Android 6.0.1
rk322X_6.0_box_MX4N_SSV6051p_SpecTek_flash-update_20171011.img
Boot version: 2.32

Most excellent
Thanks for file

used Batch 1.8
Driver version 4.4

[suppenkasper]

So do I guess correctly that Scishion V88 Mini 4k is a HK1 mini?

[freddy]

If your guess is they have the same RK 3229
that might be correct

Please help me to find a firmware for my tv box : T96R
Board: XT-MX4M-V13
Proc: RK3229 Quad Cortex-A7
Wifi: RTL8703BS

Scishion V88 mini II firmware will fit on the tv box ?

[freddy]

No one can really say which firmware will work for your box>
You will have to test yourself
From post one you have common rk3229 rtl 8703...

In a search engine or use search bar on Home page type

XT-MX4M-V13 Firmware
see where you are directed to

[Trencher]

I flashed the RK3229_HK1_MINI_SSV6051_8.1.0_20181217.2200.img to a rk3229 box I couldn't find a use for with the stock firmware, libreelec, or armbian.. trying this newer android firmware works fine so far. Ethernet, Wifi, Video, Remote. will test sound and video playback etc later, report back.

The box ls a Inland ProHT box like so:


I don't really care if I brick it and I had a A-to-A cable lying around, so I've been trying random images for rk3229 boxes.
I just wanted it to cycle a few tabs in chrome, but tasker didn't work on the 4.4 firmware it came with.
We will see if it works on the 8.1 rom

EDIT: It did not. I had no way to tell at what point tasker was failing because there is no status bar or notification tray on the 8.1 rom.
I am now trying the 7.1.2 rom. I got pictures of the board also, would posting those be helpful to anyone? I'm not looking for help here, just want to share info.

EDIT 2: the 7.1.2 rom works great for this! tasker stays open, the profile works, and there's a status bar and nav bar. There is root, but no superuser app, so I was thrown off by that, but it works fine.

thank you so much man for your help god bless you
