i did a orea twrp restore over pie. Then no more light.
The adapter is working fine. I open up the box and plug in USB but the led did not light up. And I couldn?t find which item to short it. Because the item in the video is different board. Any other way? Or if I post a pic of my board, u able to identify what to short?

Post the picture. But dont get your hopes up. I have no idea how you have found unlimited ways to destroy your box. I have been flashing stuff for 7 years, I have broken 2 phones in frustration but always I found a way.

Please first try different adapter. And try your current adapter on a different device. Maybe your adapter is faulty. You cant brick boxes by twrp restores. Unless you restored oreo over pie (that messed up the bootloader). And still the red light must come on. Does it not light up even on connecting to PC with USB wire? With reset button? Please try all options before trying the below method. I know it shows first two pins in below video, but it differs for different boxes. Please try all pairs of pins one by one. And give adequate time to each pair of pins. As in the video, you will do this process after opening usb burn tool and connecting the box with usb. With any luck, your pc will make a sound and the box will get detected in usb tool. If you have not managed to kill it completely.

Major problem with Pie, It has changed the language to Chinese and setting it back to English won't work.

How are you managing to break the box again and again? Try to plug box in pc. See if its LED lights up. You might need to use short pin method to get your box to flash again. Search google and youtube for shorting pins method.

Died. I just did a TWRP restore. After restore done, it appear a error stated no directory found. Then prompt me reboot. As usual i reboot and now unable to boot up.
The box has no power light on. And I cant flash the box either. Is it a power supply failure? I couldn't start the box now with power.

You cant have magisk I told you earlier. You have system wide root already. If you dont want root, you can flash Unroot zip. You cant have magisk yet.

Can't install Magisk on this one, not yet anyway.

I'm using Pie now after doing a clean flash and everything is working great. Hope to find a TWRP recovery for it soon.

Hi, what is the different between erase bootloader and not erase? Will I be able to flash other rom again with erase bootloader?
And can i know overwrite both MAC means what? What is the impact?

If I knew all that I would be a developer for these boxes. All I know is I select erase all. erase bootloader. whether overwrite key. and tick both mac and mac wifi. I dont know what erase bootloader does, but I do know, when we select it, the boot loader is rewritten with current selected firmware. So while changing from oreo to pie, bootloader must be erased and flashed cleanly. Also, If you are merely trying different roms, you can do so without overwriting keys everytime. Since keys get used up when you select them. So I only use the keys when I have to settle on a rom. Last time I used it when I was flashing the russian custom rom and I was not planning to move away from it. Luckily, Pie stock rom came along in a few days. I still did not use the keys when I was trying Pie. Only when I had tried pie and decided to settle with it, I used the keys. So without keys is like pre marital relationship for me. We can try any which way we want without using keys. When we want to get married to one firmware, and settle down, we use keys to make sure wifi and bluetooth work fine.

Mac is your mac address. Your device has a unique mac address. If mac config gets messed due to multiple firmware flashes, your mac will become 00:00:00 and so on. It BT or WIFI or both will stop working.
