X99 TV BOX - RK3399 Mali - T860MP4 4/32GB ROM A7.1 HDR10 Dual WiFi BT4.1

Hi ,

the PCBs are made well , only the stupid Rom support , the RK3399 PCBs are still very good ,

with new FW , without Bugs , well tweaked , it would be still a great Box ,

what about the new RK Chips , when will they released , end of the Year or when ??? ,

Without some form of competition(as bad as they can be) there would be little, no fun in that
Cheaper boxes make the better boxes look even better, YES
Not every one can afford a Shield or better.
Always has and always will be.
Need more clever people working on the cheaper boxes...as bad as it maybe, as they are built to a price not a standard.

Just can't believe someone isn't able to make a 9.0 firmware for this box.

Next week I'm already trying Android 10 for RK3399
It's a pity these no name manufacturers don't provide any Android updates whatsoever then users are stuck with broken software.
But if users keep on supporting the no name manufacturers with no updates, the situation won't change.
It will only change when they all go bankrupt because no one buys their devices, only the few companies that provide updates will then be left which will be good.

Well, i just would be carefull with that lucky patcher, my AV says its malware, will wait for results from a cloud check, but just be aware...
Im running on 20181222 unrooted and have version of playstore 7.8.36, some apps are still updating.

Yeah it was worth a try, and good work...its just so BIG and nothing worked for me...its not rooted, remote didn't work and everything seemed very slow compared to the android 7.1.
But good try. I will try anything on this BOX...lol
If you can make an IMG file for a SD card seems someone could make one for the internal flash IMG file....wish I knew how.

Hi ,

we only can hope ,

RockPi 4 uses removable emmc and micro-sd cards to boot firmware.
So you must write the firmware with etcher to a micro-sd card or a removable emmc and attach it to your boards empty slot.
Rockchip tools can't flash these images.

Hi ,

sounds not nice , would be better to use it on internal , the File is 4.5GB big , it is a .img File ,

Hi ,
Etcher is a SDBoot Tool , not sure if the .img can be flashed with PCTool , big File , but normal it must work , did you tried to flash it with Tools ??? ,

I got mine loaded into Etcher but Etcher does not see the BOX, but I did get to load on the SD card....will let you know how it works.
UPDATE: So the box runs off the SD CARD, the image isn't flashed to the BOX.....sorta weird....like having 2 systems on the box.
Wish there was a way to flash it to the box....looks like it runs pretty GOOD.
Front Display does not work.
