can this possibly work for mi box 3 4k amlogic 905?
it's bricked. no display on tv. but recognized as worldcup device when i short the two pins.

[lewy20041]

Nope, i dont think it will work with mibox.

I opened the Levi firmware android 8.0 with the help of Amlogic Customization tool .It found a file in it manifest for android 8.0.It is necessary for compilation.I thought if it was edited on android9.0.In it replace the release dates and the letter o with p.On the site amlogic there is probably only for developers.Even through ssh.

so no more solution for bricked mi box 3 right?
only by removing the emmc and direct flashing it with ufi box.

i've already searched even before i bought this box and still no way to revive a bricked mi box 3, but remove the emmc and reprogram using a ufi box.

Why can't amlogic be like qualcomm and release sources for everything, it's so stupid...

[sagert]

Конечно, qualcomm - первый. Обязательно Amlogic в разделе поставщиков. Поэтому я не запускаю android 9. Здесь kmsg и dmesg.
kmsg + dmesg.zip
v26 l также работает на Android 8.1. Я разместил ее адрес на github, где и v25.

Hello Sagert,

I am new to this so I am a little confused with instruction 3. I have already installed 8.0 Levy and the box is working fine. So not sure how I can install TWRP 3.2.1 which is also an image file? Can you send a link on how to install TWRP on an existing Android Image?

Also, do I need to install TWRP? Can I just install your img directly using the USB tool? Trying to figure out if having android 8.0 by Levi is requirement or not.

And finally, the download website is really slow. Can you put v26 on a faster server? Its showing me 4.5 hours to download 802 mb file.

Thanks.

You need to install twrp through the software Root Rashr Flash Tool from the Playmarket .Or the second who install the android recovery service.Be sure to install android 8.0 Lewy.I later overload v26.Once l install v25.

English with translation.Set either v25 or v26.
