Unbricking S805X box with the help of dumped firmware

[maciek4322]

Hello,
recently i got a S805X box and I bricked it by messing with the bootloader partition. However before bricking it I dumped it's stock firmware with AmlogicKitchen. Now it only shows this line when connected to UART:

GXL:BL1:9ac50e:bb16dc;FEAT:ADFC318C:0;POC:3;RCY:0;EMMC:0;READ:0;CHK:A7;READ:0;CHK:A7;READ:0;CHK:A7;SD:800;USB:8;

After connecting it to a PC it directly goes to "flash mode" but I can't do much via "update" utility as it always times out. It was timing out when I entered the flash mode by shorting pins as well. Only time I was able to use the "update" utility was when I entered the flash mode via UART console.

Is there any way to extract files like UBOOT.USB or aml_sdc_burn.UBOOT from bootloader.img? Or can i sideload the u-boot via USB to enter the flashmode via UART again? Are there any other solutions?

Hi ,

you know that S805X is very very old , why not bying a new cheap S905x/w/.....Box , the Tanix X4

is not bad and has CustomRom Support here , the only thing is the Wifichip , maybe a different

then in Rom supported , but you can always ask the Seller , if you want to buy new , whatever ,

what about SDCard Update/restore , tried ??? you know about Temperature Settings in Tool ???

this makes often Problems and you can not flash ,

further good luck / gefattern
