Hello.
I need some help for an amlogic s912 android TV.
Initially, I was interested to install Armbian on it, and I did it on SD card, later also the need to use this TVbox for Netflix.
Netflix did not works with the original firmware or even through Firefox on Armbian.
With the original firmware it was possible to use Netflix's service only downloading the movie, where it was possible, but I wanted to have the possibility to see the whole catalog and not just the downloadable part.
The device is labeled NPET, but on the motherboard there is BB2 written on a sticky, so I was thinking to installing the firmware of the Mecool BB2 because they are aesthetically the same thing and have the same features.
Here comes the problem.
The "Amlogic USB Burning Tool v2.0.8" didn't recognize any device - PC (Windows) via USB A-A cable.
So I thought I could use dd (disk dump), directly from Armbian, on flash memory but by doing this I destroyed the boot partition.
Evidently I was wrong.
Now the only thing I can see is a blue LED, and never the red one, when I plug in the power supply.
No signal on the HDMI port (No cable) and no longer Armbian boot
Any ideas for making it usable again?
I can use Windows7 or Linux.
Thank you
