All Roms Flashing Except!

[theghost1951]

I have the H96 Pro Plus, so far the only firmware I have been able to flash successfully is S912_H96_3G_DDR34_171120_MAC.img. From what I see, both are identical, except for a couple of features and one PMULL: Supported and slight differences in cores 1-4 speeds. Why one box can run Superceleron's SCV4-A7.1.2-x64-Alfawise.H96.ProPlus.img with the update but the other one will not? I can't see where the problem is. Take a look below at the two ADIA64 reports please?
???????Thanks in advance Guys!!!!!!

You have two different H96-PRO+ devices, correct?

The PCB are not always configured the same on the inside of the boxes, why it is best to open box and see what version of the boards you have, and also note what Ram chips you have.

The "Wisdom" model has a different unique board than the all the other variants of H96-Pro+, I can't remember exactly but I think it requires a different uboot/bootloader to function properly.

[theghost1951]

Would it be possible to create TWRP backup on one box containing just system and data and then restore it to the Wisdom box? Or combine to images to make one working img file?

[RiCkLaR_atvX]

Yes, if you have both working TWRP-recovery in both boxes, transferring SYSTEM and DATA are no problem; just remember to WIPE 'Cache and Dalvik Cache' before Reboot System.

[theghost1951]

That is my current plan. Have the backup of system and data, next step is to transfer it to flash drive and then do a restore. Will let you know the results. Thanks for all your input!

[theghost1951]

Ok, first try a no go, flashed successfully but when booting up, never made it to boot animation. Will try again, this time will wipe system and data first and then try to flash again. Be back soon with results.

[theghost1951]

Wiping did not work. Will look into combining two images to make one good one......

[theghost1951]

Created an img with TWRP as the installed recovery. That is good so far. Next trying to find out how to change out the bootloader using same Amlogic customization tool. Any help is appreciated! Trying to modify Supercelerons SCV4 img for flashing on Wisdom Box.
