I can not test this method. My box does not have a DRM license now.
Maybe a hero comes out and try.

I have got a refund for my M8S Pro+ : )
Got myself Mi Box now. Hope this one last longer
The M8S Pro+ still works for other things.. maybe i'll try follow those steps and rip the DRM. But hmm.. what does it achieve if its coded with the box's mac address. Oh well.. in the bin it goes.
My netflix woe is over !

http://blog.geekbuying.com/2017/12/m...date-20171220/
saw that was a higher version than the one on the front page

edit mybad just saw the name and its actually older my bad

That's actually the 20171124.183803.V0928 build, which is a little older. Geekbuying datestamps based on the post, not based on the build date. It's very confusing.

Hello,

I'm new on this forum but I follow this topic since a lot of time and I thank you for your help.
Today I received a M8S Pro+ from GearBest with a chipset that I don't know "Foresee". There is not SECXXX code so I don't know if I can install AndroidTV on it.

Can you help me please ?

Thanks,

that is a very recent firmware, are you sure it is android and not android tv as i'm pretty sure that firmware is android tv or did you mean to say that you wanted to install an older firmware that uses regular android?

[romss63]

I have an older M8S Pro+ with the Android TV firmware available on this topic and I really like the interface so I would to install it on my new M8S also. The original firmware is not « good » as the one here and I don’t think that it’s Android TV.

Hello Magendanz and friends:

I tryed to update my box to the latest version of Magendanz, but something went wrong, and now I have a beautiful brick... ¿Can you please help me? I selected local update, the .zip was in usb flash drive, but when it rebooted the screen went to white. Now when I turn it on, it shows the start animation of mecool, it loads the home screen of mecool, but in less than a second it goes to a white screen. My box has not reset button. The failure was (in my opinion) because it was powered with usb cable to my tv, instead of ac power adapter, because it was faulty, and it did not work. I think the usb power was not enough for tvbox+usb flash drive, and the process could not be finished.

Can you help me? How can i update to the Magendanz androidtv firmware or restore the original firmware if i have no reset button?

You can see a video here>>> https://youtu.be/aNoMCImoMAI

Well, it doesn't seem that you got very far installing my firmware update, since you've still got the OEM logo, boot video and launcher. Without the reset button, however, you're going to have to open up the case and short the PCB pads (where the reset switch used to be).
