Hi, I have successfully ported TWRP 3.0.2-0 to the Sunvell T95Z Plus.
You can flash it with Rashr app, boot it on Micro SD with the "Update&Backup" app and a dummy update.zip (rename it to recovery.img) or with the toothpick trick on boot. (rename it to recovery.img)

A bad thing, there is a problem for restoring System partition on "Superceleron V1 Final ROM" with TWRP, if you do this you will have
"Error during restore process.
extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255"
and you will not be able to boot. I'm sure that come from the ROM, an other user on Freaktab.com have the problem on the same ported ROM on NEXBOX A1 box: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player-...481#post623481
The only way to repair is to flash firmware again with USB Burning Tool. The restore feature works fine with the stock ROM.
UPDATE 09/02/2017
Updated TWRP for 7.1.1 firmware (Nougat): https://mega.nz/#!poAmXTTL!geVautNHmuTH4egOGw9mTcO7L37oVN95aHqTrGCqRVE
I rooted the box with Magisk but should works with SuperSu too.
Thanks to @simonjonnemeth for giving me the link of the firmware on post #18
Have a nice day
Hi! It will work on other s912 devices? I have Beelink GT1.
Thank you!

I don't know, it will probably boot (pretty sure) but you will probably not see any partitions. You can try and feedback
thanks, it works!
Thanks! Works on my T95Z-plus. The only issue I've found so far is that OTA system updates don't work. Once the update has downloaded the box reboots into recovery (TWRP). Then sits there. Nothing obvious to install. Reboot to system shows old version not new version.
The official TWRP position seems to be that they don't support OTA system updates, so maybe there's no fix for this. If you know of one please let us know. TheT5ZP0033 update is waiting to be installed but I have no idea how to do it with TWRP installed.
Update: I reasoned that the best method of applying the OTA would be to restore the original recovery, apply the OTA update, and then again flash TWRP. I found two different versions of the the recovery.img here:
https://mega.nz/#F!xlwAmIrD!Dg_1Kqgl1Jp0eGB67fV7Cw
One is individually listed, the other is in the zip. Neither worked. After the OTA download the box tried to boot the recovery and crashed with a dead android with an open door on his chest. Luckily a simple power off-on recovered.
Anyone know of another source of working recovery.img? Or, if there's somebody who has T5ZP0032 running and hasn't yet replaced the stock recovery, maybe you could do us a favor and dd the recovery block to a file on external storage and post a link. Something like:
dd if=/dev/block/recovery of=<myStorageDevice>recovery.img
thx man, i wil try it tonight \m/
I'm guessing some of these T95Z boxes come with an unlocked bootloader. I have an Evanpo T95Z and I have confirmed with the manufacturer that the bootloader is locked. Anyone know how to unlock the bootloader. It already came rooted.

I wish I knew that some of these T95Z boxes had a locked bootloader before I bought my Evanpo branded one. As far as I know Sunvell does not have a 3 GB RAM version yet, do you know if there is another brand of T95Z with 3 GB RAM that has an unlocked bootloader?

Ok, did more research and found the Sunvell branded T95Z with 3GB/32GB and ordered one online. Hopefully all the Sunvell versions have unlocked bootloaders. I really want to load your TWRP. What version of Android are you running? Does that matter with your version of TWRP?

If you look on Sunvell official website all T95 devices have the same spec: S912 soc, 2GB/16GB and Android 6. If you found a different config it's probably a clone. If your device have Android 7 the kernel will probably be different and TWRP will probably not works, the better way to be sure is to try

I used this on my 3/32 gig Android 6.01 box and it booted fine .. I was not able to mount ex_Sdcard but was able to use USB-OTG
Their is no option in the Backup to backup Firmware is their anyway to add this as My box has a totally different Wifi chip than all those on Freaktab (FN-Link 8223A-SR F04001) and I would really hate to totally loose Wifi because of a Rom flash.
I did a Full backup of all the partitions but I'm just not sure Wifi would be restored without the original Firmware backed up

Any idea if anyone's working on porting it for 7?
I'm working on a theory that if I could install magisk to verify play store, change the build prop to a Sony 4k tv or similar then be able to install android tv launcher does that sound believable?
What about the T95Z with the latest 7.1 firmware? I'm getting desperate for root access but I don't want to flash this and find out that my device won't boot because I really don't want to have to go through re-flashing it again. SuperSU was successful with a normal installation, but then it wouldn't boot past the T95Z logo and hunting down the official 7.1 ROM for this device was a nightmare but I found it.

Absolutely. I found it over on the freaktab forums (http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...5z-plus-3gb-32gb-wifi-chip-ap6255-help-needed).
The thread's for the 3/32gb variant, but firmware for both variants is on there.
MEGA link: https://mega.nz/#F!YJ0nTC4Z!qBz6gmJCjwHn0HtlVe2apw
I didn't realize it but this firmware already has ROOT access, though somehow with no superuser app so I didn't realise at first, but I still wouldn't mind a working build of TWRP because I would like to install Magisk.
This was a nightmare to find so I imagine it'll be very useful to other T95Z owners.

can i download rom and Flash of
m8s+ firmware for m8s
kindly suggest me
Sent from my XT1068 using XDA Forums
apparently you can, however you will have problems with your wifi (IIRC) - from what i've gathered so far these things can be temperamental and if you've got a clone unit you may run into trouble
I have one of the M8S S812 OTT boxes and want to replace Android with Openelec. I have found a few .zip file ports of Openelec but I am stuck at the first hurdle. My particular box is crippled by intent as it doesn't have ADB developer settings in its Android settings menu and additionally it doesn't seem to have an Android recovery Partition. I was hoping there might be a simple Android based tool to install a version of TWRP (which I have found two compatible versions). The surprising thing is it is ROOTED by default.
I confirmed this state of affairs by installing some boot to recovery apps which simply reboot the box. Is there a way to do this via SSH which I can probably get setup.
My motivation is two fold, the box is to be used purely as a TV client and MPG2 decoding is marginal so removing the CPU overheads of Android can only help.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have succesfully upgraded firmware using SDcard from here:

I grabbed that but didn't install it successfully. Its an OTA update which don't work with TWRP. I might have to work out how to restore the Android recovery partition so that I can try this with OTA firmware.
Cheers for the heads up, now how to get the recovery partition back without flashing a whole new firmware img file.
Shoog
Snabbletax, can you tell me which version of Android this ROM contains. Its only going to be worth updating if it is Lollipop.
Edit: I attempted to get this working on my box but it failed the signature test. I am going to have to reload TWRP and recover my last backup since it did pick up another ROM which took me way back to square one.
I suspect that the only upgrade path for me is to find a full ROM img file to burn - but there are none of those about.

Good morning,
I would really appreciate some hints to solve my Problem with Honor 5X and Lineageos 14.1.
What have I done so far:
Bought a Honor 5X -> success
Unlocked bootloader officially -> success
Installed TWRP newest Version -> success
Downloaded lineageps 14.1 newest for kiwi -> success
moved lineageos zip to phone -> success
boot into recovery -> success
wipe Cache / etc -> success
install zip for lineageos 14.1 -> error 7
From reading a little bit here, I got the idea, that the bootloader is too old for lineageos 14.1. I am not an Honor Expert, but the phone Show something lime emui 3.something.
What do I have now:
Phone with:
running twrp
running fastboot
What I do not have:
adb backup of phone
twrp backup of phone
I would like to have the phone back up and running, even stock Image would be fine. Lineageos prefered.
Kind regards

I guess you are still on emui3, so lollipop version Android 5.
First: update to a marshmallow Android 6 version, BUT NOT the most recent. Check with update what is the version proposed and give number here.
But you need stock recovery for that...
You should:
Unlock bootloader
Update software/Fw to Android 6 , emui 4, bxxx version <= b340.
Boot in twrp recovery : make nandroid backup1
Flash twrp recovery, flash root, check all OK and make backup2
Then with both backups, you re safe to play with custom roms.
Some more questions....

My bootloader is already unlocked and TWRP is up and running. So far, that is done.
The phone runs now TWRP and fastboot only, nothing else.
How do I do this task: Update software/Fw to Android 6 , emui 4, bxxx version <= b340
I guess download this b340 fw/sw as a zip and install via TWRP?

Hi, you must return to stock recovery. Find the thread honor5x depot and get it based on model.
Then i think once stock recovery reinstalled, you can update in emui via settings>about phone.
What is **** is, if you update too much, you wont be able to flash ROM because of volte Fw. Thats why you need to check bxxx version of update to be sure to be less than b350.
Otherwise, you need to update manually with for example application firmware finder (playstore). Dont hesitate to search in threads your case. Some people may have face same request/issue

Download Marshmallow firmware manually (Google or use Firmware updater app/site) and install it via dload or via EMUI updater (5.1.1 has an "Upgrade manually" option). That's a KIW-L21? You won't get VoLTE anyway, install whatever you find for it (latest I know about is B350 CUSTC432D003, available on Polish Honor site). After that, flash TWRP and flash whatever you want.
Yahoooooo and thanks a lot again!

But now you should boot in twrp to make a nandroid backup of all stock with adb (find in threads).
Then you flash twrp and backup again with twrp and emui.
So in case of issues you re covered. Then try flashing los

I would suggest you RR,aex or crdroid if you want extra features. Of course backup your los first
Install KIW L21 B320 stock

Wipe cache, dalvick cache, system, data
Flash lineage
Reboot then flash gapps and SuperSU or magisk
You will have no problems with this method

Edit- I just figured out the models listed in this thread are not the one I have.
I may be a little slow, but does this mean we can root and run Android on our Idol 4s? Also, I'm not sure what my model number is. It's an unlocked idol 4s in the United States.
Thanks!

Correct, you have the Windows version of the Idol 4. There was work being done to convert it to an android device but I don't think it's being worked on anymore. Last I knew there was a bootloader unlock available for it
unlock
Thanks for the app, i have a question, is it possible to unlock without having to pay, i already went to a local shop but they couldnt do it because i had it rooted With an old versión of TWRP
@PizzaG for model 6055b still not working? or do I install the cricket rom for now?

the AIO Toolkit isn't for you because we have no firehose programmer file. You can try the 6055k firehose if you want. Los16 should work fine for you
@PizzaG sorry for bothering you again, i have follow all steps but it appear this message in the moment to push the button download: " Download Fail:Sahara FailSahara Fail ", should I try to root the phone separately? and then continue with the steps of treble & gsi?.
really thanks for your kind attention and effort.

Hello!
I did all the steps, rooted and installed OrangeFox recovery, and next thing I know, it says there is no OS installed on my Idol 4 6055k. My mistake, I thought it would install a custom ROM as well, since it says up there:
-Roms-

I can't find the ROMs anywhere. I tried to go back to stock, but recovery won't recognize SDcard (other phones do recognize it). I tried to sideload the stock zip file, fail.
Sorry to bother you man, I'm out of my depth. Please, leave me some instructions how to go back to stock or how to install native LOS and where to download it from. Thanks!

Come to our group and we'll get you fixed up. You are correct, No roms are flashed unless you flash them. The toolkit only gets you setup for GSI roms, which you have to get. Native Android 9 works very well, so you have a couple differents choices.

Hello all,
So i had tried every firmware out there for 2/16gb X96 max plus. Turns out this box is a totally different model the Q1 Android 9 System_as_root, no ramdisk.
The WiFi/ethernet and Kernel are different from the rest
So far I've had slimbox(with magisk) I don't know how @SlimHouse managed to root it.
All the X96max plus versions of twrp work on him including the X96max official twrp.
The stock is really smooth and actually OK. So I would like to root and maintain it...
What I cannot do is get this new box revision of "Q1" rooted.
So far I have tried :
1. Twrp flashing magisk 21.4.zip with Dm Verity..zip.
2. Cat /dev/block/boot > /sdcard/boot. Img and tried patching the boot partition with magisk.
3. Tried extracting the boot.img using Amlogic tools (and got lost)
Does anyone know how I can install magisk on this, it seems strange I can flash the zips and install twrp to recovery but I can't obtain root.
Thanks in advance, as always....appreciated.
Regards
did you make any progress with this since asking ?
I've gotten myself a X96Max Plus2 that comes rooted without a superuser app or even a root switch. I don't want a box that's slapped together by manufacturers that barely give a f*#k offering root access to whomever asks. I want magisk on this thing!
getting definitive info is turning out to be harder than I thought, I discovered that settings names it differently to it's packaging. all material on the box says S905X3, but AIDA64, Dev Check and other apps only mention a codename Franklin. searching that brought me to a spec page saying it was S905X2.
how many boxes are called a variation of t95, how many of x96 ? kinda annoyed right now.

Yes you can use slimbox .. That'll do it.
Please note you will have to use USB twrp from the update option to flash a magisk patched.img to the mmcblk0 boot partition yourself..after you've flashed slimbox firmware. (sounds worse than it is)
It's a bit pernickety but you'll grasp it... And works well.
Goto the slimbox rom thread s905x3.
Off the top of my head (it was two boxes ago)
Here :
X96Max Plus
CPU: Amlogic S905X3 GPU: G31™ MP2
slimboxtv.ru
And here :
Post in thread 'project SLIMBOX' https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/project-slimbox.4152049/post-83528517
Should have everything you need.
I actually done well with that little box.. Before upgrading to ugoos

I tip my hat to you sir
