H96 MAX RK3399 Tv Box 4/32GB

[Wyle]

Hey SuperCeleron! I'm happy to see you've released a ROM for this Box!

I finally bought this H96 MAX box and it's quite a bit more powerful than my old H96 Pro PLUS.

However, I see similarities with the H96 Pro PLUs regarding certain issues: Dark Screen during Video playback on APPS like NETFLIX -BOX FIX.apk won't install on my box using your New SCV1 ROM . Terrarium and YouTube seem to be running ok.

Any fixes for the video coming in your next ROM release for thisH96 MAX (RK3399) box? - I noticed this one has the same DARK SCREEN issue as my H96 PRO PLUS box, even with your ROM "SCV1 BETA". Also, I noticed the ROM has 3 different SETTINGS screens, where only 1 affects the box SLEEP MODE for turning off.

I'm hoping you release an update soon! Thanks!

Update:

I did roll back to an earlier image, however I then used a newer flashtool to re-install rk3399_7.1_new_H96max_P_A_E_1.5M648M_ear_180102.i mg .......and it worked.... thanks, pravdeepvizz and xShARkx...



Find the newer version 1.45 flashtool in this thread....

Hi All,

I recently purchased H96 Max box and it was working great initially and all of a sudden one day it rebooted and stayed on reboot loop on 'h96 max' screen. It has been a week and I have not been able to get it to work again. It just stays on that bootloop on 'H96 max' screen.

I have tried to clear cache and data from recovery mode, still stays on bootloop. Got it from banggood, and their support staff provided me a link for a ROM from Jul 17, 2017 which I successfully have flashed using different factory tools such as v1.41, v1.42, v1.43 and v1.45. and it just stays on bootloop.

Flashed it with October 16, 2017, December 11, 2017 and Jan or Feb's (rk3399_7.1_new_H96max_P_A_E_1.5M648M_ear_180102.i mg) 2018 FWs and all of them stay on bootloop. The only exception was that using the latest 2018 FW instead of showing h96 screen, it showed MBOX logo and rebooted and stayed on bootloop with mBOX logo. I also flashed it using SCV ROMs, both Marshmallow one and the Nougat one, and both stay on Bootloop.

In every case, with each of the above mentioned FWs, when it is on bootloop, the blue led light of the box keeps flashing slowly.

The box comes with blue chip.

Yeah, same with me......

I just flashed mine with this "new" factory firmware (rk3399_7.1_new_H96max_P_A_E_1.5M648M_ear_180102.i mg) using the flashtool - which indicated successful flash procedure - but it's just stuck on H96.

Cleared cache in recovery, etc.... this image just doesn't work.....should not have been released.

Will have to roll back to something else....

I have had the same issue with my H96 Max. I will try the power supply too.

This box is realy picky about Voltage. make sure you give it enough. seems like everything under 5v is not enough. i did a small test on mine, it started rebooting irregular on 4.85v, and bootloop at 4.75v. i bought a 5v 8A from **** pretty cheaply, around $10 ment for led strips, turns out this gives 5.35v after i got that no more random reboots. (yes i know 8A is WAAAAY to much for this box needs, but its cheap and works perfect)
The included power supply is REALY shitty quality, i opened mine and found all the capacitors are the cheapest brand known, 2 of them where blown. i could not been bothered to solder inn new caps.
Here is the link to the one i bought: https://www.****.com/itm/AC110-220V-...72.m2749.l2649

I have tried to power it using higher Amp adapter but still on reboot loop.

One more thing, the original 5v 2a adapter only gives red light from the back of the box from the SPDIF port and no stable or flashing blue light. Maybe it is giving less power...

I have to use USB port of my Samsung mobile 5V 2A charger and it stays on flashing Blue light with the box stuck on bootloop. I have tried another mobile charger with 5V 4A, and it is still the same, stuck on bootloop with blue light flashing slowly and h96 screen.

When connecting through USB ports to my charger for powering up the device, I connect it to USB 2.0 port on the h96 box and not to USB 3.0 port, cuz I think USB 3.0 port may get higher Voltage from charger and the device may get burned? Am I right in thinking that?

Any suggestions on how this can be fixed?

All the help will be appreciated immensely!!

Hi ,

if your Box is stock at Bootloop , you can try to reach Recovery and wipe all "cache" & and maybe "data" too ,

but i think this shall not work , u must flash your H96Max new .

Have mine working great, handles everything I throw at it. Kodi, Terrarium, Showbox, various games. It did take some tweaking to get the box to my liking. Main issue was overheating, solved that with an Eluteng 120mm USB fan underneath. Runs cool as a cucumber now. I've also heard great things about the Shield, but I'm certainly not disappointed with the H96 Max.

install Dolphin (gamecube / WII emulator) or ppsspp emulators or try a 4k 60fps sample and see if you still feel the same
it also doesn't support youtube 4k or Netflix 4k without a custom rom, hell even the remote is broken on the default software (open Chrome / highlight a link, hit the center button and nothing happens)

This box is a piece of shit! At least the software is! If you don't plan in using it just to play heavy android games, then its not worth it! Even to play android games on this thing, you will probably get really frustrated, because of the many problems, bugs and etc that the stock rom has! And the updates coming from alfawise to this box are a complete joke! I'll never buy another product from alfawise in my life, what they make are indeed low quality chinese shit! Just like what most people think from products that are made in china are!

Luckily, I've sold this box in site like **** here in my country! I've even got profit over it!

If i ever buy another android box in my life, i'll choose one with properly hardware, and software support! Like the mi box and others running real android tv os, and not a low quality shit like what the h96 max is, that uses android os, which is made for smartphones and tablets with a bunch of shit made kludges in the software to try and make shit somewhat work! But it doesn't!

I have to agree ..what a disappointment this thing has been.
The high benchmark score is the only thing this box has going for it. If it weren't for SC 7.1 rom the box would be pretty much a paper weight.

I have a 2015 Shield and it's in a whole different category to this box. Everything on it pretty much just works right out of the box. I highly recommend it every time it's on sale.

tv h96 max became brick,does not see the usb even when you press something in the audio output.
I tried a usb cable connected to the usb 3 tv box and the computer holding in the audio output.
I also installed the driver driver and 4.3 and 4.4 for nothing,only a red light lights up on the audio output
freakkid and Danya how did you do it?
"I also had the brick, the PC didn't see the console, restored in the following way: open FactoryTool combine the console with the computer, press the held-reset, connect the power and close the contacts after the circuit FactoryTool saw my box and I successfully flashed.how did you close your contacts?"
Please a video or a few more photos

Hi,

Used a paper clip and placed between the 2 contacts...(see post 249 for picture in red circle) while holding the reset button (in yellow audio output hole) and usb connected to computer and then connecting the power plug...this took several tries with the repositioning of the paper clip beween the 2 contacts. .play around with it...the point being the H96 Max can be unbricked!!!!
