MXQ Brick Help

[shooter42]

Hello lads,
Im new to Android so please be gentle.
My mxQ tv box stopped working a few days ago after a month and Im going around in circles at this stage.I've tried reflashing with an sd card but cannot enter the boot menu,just get a black screen with the steady blue LED on the box.I've also tried with the usb burning tool but get a DDR error at 2%.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Edit: MXQ Amlogic S805 Quad Core Android 4.4 Smart 4K TV Box 8G

You can try downloading an older firmware in img format and then flash it via usb. I've done that on a few boxes that I've brought back to life.

There are several different boxes that are called MXQ. Maybe someoen can tell you the right firmware if you post a picture of yours.

I read somewhere that some terminals on the board,when shorted can restore the box.Anyone have experience of this before I open the box or bin it?

Have you tried using AmLogic Boot Card Maker? See here for instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPtmwwEpB3g

Tried that Compos thanks,but im still getting a black screen.With USB burning tool I get the error "USB error occur when check DDR run at RomCode ".

Any ideas?

Can you post a different link to your box please? I can't see anything on the other one.

Is it time to throw in the towel with my MXQ?
Im stuck in a never ending cycle of failure at 3% with the USB burning tool.

Which version of USB Burning Tool are you using? Are the drivers installed properly? Maybe a newer version will help: http://chinagadgetsreviews.com/downl...-v2-0-4-3.html
