I corrupted my file system and finally fixed it tonight. It was barely functioning with no network, sdcard, filesystem and almost all apps would not work. I can not find any information on this device out there at the moment and thought I would share how I was able to flash and bring it back. I'm not an expert at doing these sort of things so more experienced users would probably have a better way. I bought two of these machines so I was able to restore the bad one with the good.
First off, I can not find any ROM available for this device anywhere I look and none that I've tested function fully. Also no PC drivers to connect to adb other than the drivers that come with the Amlogic USB burning tool which only seem to work with this software.
Software and things you will need:
*Amlogic USB burning tool. I used v2.0.6.2
A male to male usb cable
A toothpick
Sdcard
If you recieved a license error when you use it go here to fix post#32 copy the license files into your Amlogic software installation "License" subfolder:

*ACEMAX KI_PLUS_DTV-LMY47V-20160421.110642.V1031P3.img
This is the only file you will need unpack it to the Sdcard.

*TWRP_3.0.2_U1_SDcard.img

*My Twrp backup of a fresh install of this device. Dowload all files and unpack to your Sdcard.
Instructions:
Depends how bad your device is whether you want to flash it with another Rom to be able to boot up in the android os. If you can not boot up and your only option is to flash then follow these steps from the beginning else you can skip the flash ACEMAX...img:
*Plenty of guides on youtube that show you how to install the Amlogic USB burning tool and use the toothpick method to detect your device using the software so I won't go into detail.
*Flash the ACEMAX K1 S905.IMG to your device using the Amlogic software. It may take more than one try. Mine errored out the first time and passed the second time. So may take more than one try.
*Once it is finished you should be able to boot up into the android os. For me the network did not work with this rom but it was stable and pre rooted and gets you back to a functioning android os.
*Copy the Rashr.apk, TWRP_3.0.2_U1_SDcard.img, and the unpacked "Aewish M8S Plus 4K S905 5.1" folder from my Twrp backup on the sdcard. Rename the "Aewish M8S Plus 4K S905 5.1" folder "TWRP". Insert the card into the device. It should mount it. Open the sdcard using the file explorer app that is preinstalled. Install the Rashr.apk and run. It will ask for root permission and give it. Inside the app will be the option "Recovery from Storage". Click this and search for the TWRP_3.0.2_U1_SDcard.img on the sdcard. Install and it will ask you to boot into it and hit yes.
*Your machine will reboot into the TWRP recovery. Follow the instructions for doing a Restore. Plenty of guides out there that you can follow. When prompted for the location direct it towards the your external sdcard. It should see the backup in the TWRP folder you unpacked on your sdcard. It will take a few minutes to complete. Once you reboot, you'll be back in business.
This is how I fixed this device without any proper Rom that would fully work and no way that I could find to enter adb on this device. If someone knows of some adb drivers or a proper rom that will work please post.
