I have a T9 (RK3328) TV stick, it got bricked. I searched the internet and tried many methods to recover it, but failed, please help if you know a better solution.

I used RKBatchTool to restore it, and got a blue square, but after I click "restore" button, it failed at "download boot fail"

I also tried RK Android Tool, my stick is loaded as "Found one MASKROM Device". I played around the tool, but every time it failed at the same reason "Download Boot Fail".

I have no ideas, anyone please help!

Hi ,

you only can try the "Haizenberg" Way , or try it with SDCard flash/restore , if this not works ,

you only can trash it , because nobody here knows something else about restore this "Bug" ,

otherwise it would be FAT sticky Thread , so many Users had this , me and my UT3 too ,

before i trashed it , i tried all too , and it was not a 50 bucks Box ,

further good luck / gefattern

PS : PLEASE do not use always the same Text , or are you a Machine ???

Hello I need help with my MXQ Rockchip 3229.
Always get IDB fail error tried everything so want to try this post method of shorting pins but dont know which ones to short. Attaching images for help. Thank you in advance.

[Bloem]

Unfortunately, none of the methods worked, the problem is still, I have tried all kinds of methods, but the problem is still, I downloaded all fiwmare and followed all the methods in here and elsewhere and the error still appears! If the device was not new, I would have threw it in the trash! Please, whoever has another way, do not hold back in setting it for us.

Flashed the wrong firmware and got idb failed. i thought my box reach its end until i found this thread!

You rock

[zeroprobe]

Try flashing different older versions of the firmware.

I had to flash a year previous for it to work.
Not sure whether some firmwares are specific for different variants example 4gb / 8gb variants and have the same filename.

I was then able to upgrade to the latest IMG the normal way.
