[OLD VERSION] [ROM] Aidan's ROM [S905X] [Android TV 9] [OLD VERSION]

[ojcu]

to answer my own question, i tried to dirty flash it was stuck on boot screen. clean install worked.
Update: i forgot to uncheck erase boot, only unchecked erase flash thats why dirty flash didn't work.

I've just done it with erase boot unchecked and it didn't work anyway. Same as yours, stuck on boot screen. Doing clean install now.

Hello there! Ive got problem with boot of my device or/and problem with USB Burning Tool.

First of all ive tried few hours to put right image to my device. When i tried with S905W but got problems with Uboot in USB Burning Tool ("0x32030201]Uboot/Get result/DiskInitial error". But i tried S905X and it went well but only when i uncheck erase flash and boot sections. That was the only way to finish burning correctly. And of course its not working and hanging on Aidens Rom Logo (i was w8ing more than 5 mins).

When i check "erase flash and boot" sections ive got those mostly
[0x10105002]Romcode/Initialize DDR/Read initialize status/USB Control setup error
[0x00101004]Erase bootloader/Lowper/Identify/Error result

And yes ive done the Mask Rom thing :/

Pls help

hmm sounds likee an odd device

Hi @aidanmacgregor, would you mind to have a look at my box and see if you could give me a hand to put my box back alive please?

 

[JerryMouse1986]

I tried flashing 13 firmwares you provided on the cloud. 10 of them were successfully programmed into the box but none of them can boot up. Most of them are sticking with the splash screen. Only 2 firmwares can see the animation then restart automatically.

[V8 AP6330 firmware can see the language screen once and restart by itself and freezing then]

So it should work when i burn it via USB Burning Tool without those to options checked?

Whats the difference between dirty and clean install then?

You can try number 6 X96Max_plus 2 Q1 but i think ethernet won't work for you model but you can try no problem you won't get brick

Hello!
Sorry for the delay, I tried the mode for Q2 via USB recording tool, unfortunately it goes into boot loop
I see that on aidan's website there is a download of x96 max plus 2
Will I try that instead of the version for Q1?
... I don't want a hard brick ... again xD

hmm it is intresting that one seems to get further, im not sure why its rebooting itself, only thing i ca thik of is maybe a button is diffrent in your deviced DB maybe, just a guess though, you may need to use my android tv 7

a dirty insatll will keep userdata partition unchanged (users apps and files) and update the rest, where clean install eases everything and sets up device like it was factory reset/new, not too sure on the technichal side of the update process, like if its file by file or whole partition

Hi @aidanmacgregor , thank you for your message.

I have tried all three your ATV7 firmware but only universal one can be programmed into the box, other two for MXQ and Newbox were failed (error on diskutil or failed to recognize the emmc at 2%).

I'm not sure if I use the right ATV7 firmware. But I downloaded them from the link in your youtube video (https://mega.nz/folder/rTgUQLyI#jfRgEhOenZ0ZBtRLIOPK6A).

Would you mind to have a look at the photos I attached previously and see if any other version of firmware I can use please?

Thank you very much again, and looking forward to your response soon.

looks like a few manufacturers make your device so hard to say anything

Nice to meet you!
I also have an X96 Max Q2 and tried TEST-Q2 but it goes into the boot loop.
Next, I will try plus 2.
What other trial and error should I do? Please give me advice.

Hello!
I have installed the X96 Max plus 2 ROM on my X96 Max plus Q2.
Launch, add google account, install from playstore, wired internet, wi-fi worked fine.
But unfortunately Bluetooth didn't work.

If you can solve the bluetooth problem, it will be the best ROM!

Yep thanks!
in Q1 wifi / ethernet does not work
And in 2 everything is fine, except the connection to ethernet (it marked connection error when restarting) wifi works fine
Either way, aidan's room is still a very good option !!
Thanks for the support!!
