H96 MAX RK3318 Android 9.0

[mo123]

I try to install with TWRP this ATV9 system backup

https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=952710&st=4100#entry93046782

But bootloop, if somebody can help

i reinstalled last rom (14-11-2019) https://www.filefactory.com/file/6mj...91114_v002.zip
with Android tool 2.71 (link with rockchip tools) https://github.com/rockchip-linux/to...master/windows
No problem for erase and upgrade

Maybe the backup system.img size is different between the firmwares and then you will overwrite other partitions if the size was too big.
Different firmwares also have different security checksums for partitions and you can't mix partitions then the security checks will fail and you will get a bootloop.
A new Android 9 feature introduced by Google by default.

Kadzsol thanks I had a problem but I could solve it.
A question because the factorytool tells me that the version is firmware see 9.40.1b5d ?? Or once unpacked I have to modify build.prop ??

Sorry, I do not understand. What problem did you solve and how?

What are you exactly trying to accomplish with factory tool when you see version is 9.40.1b5d?

I have my box arrived from China, if you make clear problem description and a step-by-step description what you are doing, I might help.

Good night friends! I'm Brazlian and I need help. Do you know how to delete the IDB/NAND? I don't know how to use the Finless room program to do this, I managed to jump the h96 max RK3318, and it is in maskroom mode, but it gives an error when upgrading using the RKbatch tool, I researched it and I think I need to delete the IDB to get success, do you know how to do this in maskroom mode? all versions that i downloaded from the android tool are in chinese and I don't know how to use. Thanks, João

Hi ,

Language can be changed inside config.File , from 1 to 2 , but i think your Box is bricked , prepare IDB , download boot fails Errors , are a typic Sign for bricked Nand , always use latest Drivers & Tools , look at the first Page for Mo123 Post #15 , that ist the truth ,

good luck / gefattern

I would suggest users stay away from RK3318 devices.
It is a low cost version of RK3328 only sold to 2 or 3 companies by Rockchip, making cheap tv boxes.
The CPU only runs at 1.1Ghz, not 1.5Ghz like RK3328 and corners are cut everywhere to bring the cost down to compete in price with Allwinner H6.
Don't expect any firmware updates or such devices to still work after 3-4 months because of the low quality RAM and emmc chips used.

Had I read your comment before !!!!! MR. ! I m stuck with an H96 somehow, after umpteen tentatives I 'installed' firmware green light left side panel but connected to tv and current no booting.

Hi.
I have exactly H96 Max that is on the first post and I would like to know how can I make the wifi of TV box find the my router signal in the channel 13. The wifi of TV box can find the my router signal only between the channels 1 through 12.
I added some lines in the /system/build.prop file like

ro.wifi.channels=14

and

ro.product.locale.region=EU

but didn't work.

Someone know how can I do that ?

Thank you for any help.

You can only set ro.wifi.channels from 1-13
There might be other places in the kernel's wifi code or system where you also need to set it, which would be difficult to find.
You also need to set in the build.prop
ro.boot.wificountrycode=CN or EU and not US
ro.product.locale.region=EU is not needed

Check that the language is CN(China), EU and not US since US only uses 11 wifi channels.
Or the easiest way is to set your router manually to a wifi channel between 1-11 and not set it on auto.

Thanks for answer me.
I did what you said but didn't work.
I discovered that the Japan has router wifi with channel 14 and used "JP" to set "Japan" as the coutry but didn't work too.
I added more lines that I saw in the net, like:
persist.sys.language=ja
persist.sys.region=JP
ro.product.locale.language=ja
persist.sys.country=JP
No worked again.

I read now the manufacturer has to set the ro.boot.wificountrycode=CN in the Boardconfig.mk file 5 places when they build the firmware so 13 channels can work.
So unless the manufacturer can build new firmware, I don't think anything will work.
