Perhaps can you give a hint which firmware 5.0 or 5.1.1 based is working on this box?
In addition I have the problem to find even the proper firmware based on 4.4.2 android.
I have device MXIII 4k, s802, 2gb with the mainboard Nexteon. Maybe somebody knows which firmware will work properly? (it is realy hard to find one :/)
Thx in advance!

HI. To be hones i can't find any chip information. It is the chip next to the soldered antena? (I marked in on foto with black rectangle) If yes then on this item is just a number "4517G1 D322C9 " without information about the producer like Broadcom or Realtek:/
I'm attaching the better foto and one with marked item (I hope this is a chip which you asked?).
Thx in advance for the answer!

Ok. Good to know that I should stay on KITKAT.
Unfortunately next to by attempts to flash it to 5.0 I bricked my device :/.
Do you have a proper Kitkat IMG to flash it by the usage of Amlogic_Burning_Tool (I'm using 2.0.5 version) or different method to make this device alive again? I searched and can't find proper IMG
Firstly It was KOT49H test build but I can't find KOT49H build version in .img format for this device. (every flash attempt with different roms ended on 3% with USB controller error, I tried also on different PC to avoid drivers problem.)
Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion but It is still not working.
Firstly I try to flash it by sdcard method by using "TRONFY_TVB_MXQ_CARD_USB_VERSION_FULLY_LOADED_V111k4_20150706" rom. It booted with GoogleTV logo then this logo disappears, the led light was still blue but without additional reaction. After 5 minutes I turned it off because nothing have happened.
Now it is worse it is not booting with sdcard anymore :/
So I'm trying to flash it by the usage of Amlogic USB_Burning_Tool (version 2.0.6.2_build2) but doesn't meter which .img i'm selecting it is still crashing on 3% with the error: [0x10105002]Romcode/Initialize DDR/Read initialize status/USB Control setup error.
I tried to investigate it and what is strange for me:
1) The device is recognized properly by Amlogic USB_Burning_Tool (with the status connected) without pressing the reset button.
2) On this 3% burning step it looks that the device is disconnecting and connecting again (based on windows manager devices)
3) I thought that the drivers problem and the system version problem, but i tried even with windows xp and the result is similar :/
4) When I connecting with OTG the computer recognizes it and says M8 chip en after WorldCup device.
5) This device I received on the box as here --> http://g01.a.alicdn.com/kf/UT8Qpjy...th=1000&hash=c2b99badfc18fab45c64c5c6943e6140 with the description that it is Android KitKat QuadCortex-A9 OCta Mali-450. Maybe I should try the firmware for different device?
I have read somewhere that this 3% error is often when the firmware image is wrong for the device but also it met one post that device is connecting with windows on wrong condition and it is impossible to flash it then...
Below i'm attaching the list of .IMG files with I tried to flash:
Code:
MXIII_113K4.img
Tronsmart MXIII_115k4_20150603.img
Do you have idea how to resurrect my device?
Thx in advance!

About the WIFI chipset I have no idea what it is :/
More information base of the seller description we can find here : http://aliexpress.com/item/MXIII-MX...2-2GB-8GB/32641633395.html?isOrig=true#extend
I'm also attaching the photos :

Big thanks in advance for the help to find the proper ROM file (.img) to flash this box and make it alive again
Cheers

I haven't taken a look inside but I'm pretty sure that I have the exact same box (arrived in same packaging and has exactly the same specs). Any progress in getting 5.x working? The only reason why I bought this box was to use the DirecTV app and it stutters like crazy. It's the only thing about the box that's slow, which is very annoying. Hoping 5.x will fix that (if it can be flashed).

The fact of being slow isn't unfortunately the OS but the hardware. Many Chinese folks who sells the boxes and to whom i spoke to, have confirmed that few lollipop versions running in few specific boxes with amlogic s802 have more issues than the ones with kitkat.
The hardware won't handle the lollipop.

Thx ataraxioss but you send me wrong rom? This one looks like for the sdcard method. Inside it isn't any .img (except of recovery.img) file to flash the rom via USB_Burning_Tool, or it is a special method how to flash it?
Inside the package which you send me it is:
Code:
factory_update_param.aml
k200C-ota-20151211.zip
recovery.img
u-boot.bin
Thx in advance for the answer.

Hi ataraxioss,
Now the content of the zip is better because it achieves the aml_upgrade_package.img file.
Unfortunately still it looks as incorrect ROM or something else ;/
It is still crashing on 3% of crashing process with the error as below:
Code:
[08:16:46 083][HUB2-4][Inf]--RunInRam succeed
[08:16:51 090][HUB2-4][Err]--IOCTL_DO_LARGE_MEM_Handler ret=-5 error_msg=libusb0-dll:err [control_msg] sending control message failed

[08:16:51 594][HUB2-4][Err]--[08:16:51 594][HUB2-4][Inf]--Failure : 2, FailureMax : 3
[08:16:52 105][HUB2-4][Err]--usb_get_configuration ret=-5 error_msg=sending get cached configuration ioctl failed, win error: It is not possible to find the proper file.
[08:16:52 105][HUB2-4][Inf]--Failure : 3, FailureMax : 3
[08:16:52 105][HUB2-4][Err]--[0x10105002]Romcode/Initialize DDR/Read initialize status/USB Control setup error
If it will be helpful I can attach the whole log.
I disabled also the power saving on USB ports, reinstalled USB Burning tool to new version v2.0.5.15. Badly i'm get still the same result
I have still the impression that the ROM .img is incorrect
Maybe you have different idea and/or different rom to test ?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!
