can't change the ROM of my NEXBOX A95X-B7N - Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers

Hello,
i have some old NEXBOX A95X-B7N with 1gb RAM and 8gb ROM
I'm trying to install some custom ROM but i can't.
First problem is when i try to access the recovery mode i can't somehow it is skiping it when it's booting.
I'm starting it while i'm hoding the reset button into the AV port and still i can't view and access the recovery mode. I try also with USB to USB cable and USB Burning tool but i can't find proper ROM.
I will be very happy if someone advice me what to do ?
I need some rom which will work and some advice why i can't access the recovery mode. I think there are some installed rom already, but it's not from me.
Thank you in advanced.

hi, i would reccomend my android TV 7 ROM for nexbox a95x devices, fast & stable, as for device not being detected by burn tool, you've tried multiple ports on your PC & box?

It will be nice if you can provide me a stable rom for my A95x
Can you please provide me some link to download it.
About the burning tool and the ports....i have 2 USB ports. I've try in both of them. In one of the port i'm managing to connect it to the burning tool but after few minutes i'm loosing the connection for unknown reason for me. I'm suspecting that maybe due to a issue with the images with which i try to install with the USB burning tool.

In the video description there is download link for S905X, There is a Nexbox specific version (so the IR remote control & sleep works)

I had no problem to install atvx into exactly same device.
Keep a95x disconnected from everything. Press AV button and hold it while you plug usb cable to right usb port. You mustn't plug power cable. Only usb.
You windows will connect to a95x if amlogic tool is running

And if that dosntvwork then you may need to use mask rom mode to force burning tool to see the device

troubleshooting to connect the phone to the PC

Hi all,
by cons for several weeks I've a concern with my redmi Note 2 and I can't find the answer to my problem on the forum or even the Internet.
Since the last update 7.2.2 (global) I have the Recovery MIUI who crushed the TWRP. I changed to test 6.3.17. The update to the .24 went wrong and I don't know why. Since the phone is bootloop. But the problem is that my phone is not recognized by any PC. I tried several PCs, several cables, several drivers, with or without the Fastboot, unable to connect. Therefore impossible to load a new version. I don't think it's material problem because the phone recharge well with a cable to the socket.
Is there another handling or debug decision to restart the phone? I'm in France for information.
thank you in advance if you can point me to a solution !
Hope someone can help me.

Can the phone boot to miui recovery? If so, you should be able to use miui recovery to flash TWRP (I think you will need one with a signed install zip). You only need to take out the external SD, put it in one of those cheap USB card readers, copy your recovery and ROM to the SD, put it back in the phone, flash TWRP with miui recovery, and then flash the ROM with TWRP (I am assuming that miui recovery can install things from the external SD - if not, then none of this will work).
Hi Bro,
Yes it boot in MIUI recovery but impossible to get access to the SD Card...
I tried to put the file on the SD card but you can't choose the path, I think the recovery will look only in the internal memory ... And as I can't access the internal memory..
I despair !!
Thanks o lot for your help

Ok - but have you tried the Mediatek SP Flash Tool?
Of course yes but the real problem is that the phone is not recognized by the PC and therefore can't load anything ...
Even changing drivers or cables or PC, nothing to do.

So, when the battery is removed, and you connect the USB cable, the phone is not even vibrating (and making that weird sound) every couple of seconds or so?
Yes you're right : every 10s the phone vibrate...

Well, then it is very strange that you can't use the SP Flash Tool. If the phone vibrates, then the device is recognised, and you should be able to flash anything you want with the SP Flash Tool! How exactly were you trying to use the Flash Tool?
I tried so many solutions I really don't know exactly how I used the software.
I will again try everything.
But against any changes when I look in the USB settings of the PC, the phone doesn't appear.
I try again just now, thank you for your help.

With the SP Flash Tool, all you need is the correct "scatter" file (MT6795_Android_scatter.txt), and the image(s) that you want to flash. If the phone is vibrating, then the SP Flash Tool should be able to connect to it when you click "Download". Just make sure that you first untick everything that you do NOT want to flash. I would try flashing the boot image (boot.img) first. If that succeeds, then try the TWRP recovery image.
Ok. I'm going to try again with "http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=196175&highlight=sp%2Btool%2Bflash%2Bredmi%2Bnote%2B2"

Strange! I am assuming that when you connect the phone with the USB cable, the battery has been removed from the phone? If so, then it should work.
Perhaps you should try first connecting the phone, and then waiting until it has vibrated once or twice, before clicking the "Download" button?
Yes I removed battery before connect the phone to PC. I tried also with battery and nothing changed.
I even changed the cable to be sure.
Which seems to me most strange is that I see nothing in the device manager, as if the phone wasn't connected. Whatever the installed driver is the same result. I think it should at least have the phone on the COM or USB port ...
I will try again this night to be sure with all steps one by one. And I will also try with ACER tablet I and runs Android 5.1. Maybe it will be recognized.
Otherwise I also tried to pass a Linux PC as a last resort.
Thanks again for your help.

Yes, it should. The fact that the phone vibrates when connected indicates that the PC and phone are communicating - but it may well be that a low-level driver in the phone has been overwritten (which may mean that this is a lost cause). A final idea - can miui recovery access usbotg?
Hum good question. In fact I don't know. I'll ask the MIUI forum.
I got home late from work so I don't do tests tonight, I'd see it all tomorrow including the connection with my tablet ...
Thanks

Hi,
I tried to connect with an Acer Tablet with Android 5.1.1 but nothing appends...
I tried also with a Linux PC (Debian) and if I can see a Samsung A3 phone dirrectly, no way for my Redmi Note 2...
There really I despair : I think I can't access any of the phone. Can't do anything !
If you have any other solution but you help me a lot already, and thanks for that.
Can be a micro crack on the USB plug into the phone if it's not a software problem ... Let's go for it apart and look at this ...
Thanks again bro.

I don't think it is a crack on the USB plug. It seems to me to be a low-level driver problem - ie, the drivers on the phone that are active when the phone is not (fully) booted up. I don't have the right terminology for these drivers, but they are possibly part of the bootloader. If that is the problem, then I don't know how you would solve this problem.

USB Burning Tool with TWRP

Hi all,
I have a minix U1 that was wiped (no OS). TWRP is installed and I can boot to it (hold power for 6 seconds).
I am trying to install the stock Minix ROM FW013 (most recent) but when booting into TWRP the USB Burning Tool does not connect to the box. I have tried multiple version of the burning tool, currently have 2.0.8 installed.
Any idea how I can installed the stock IMG ROM?
Having a TWRP recovery installed does not always mean the recovery is working - are you certain it is the right version and that it works for your box?
And I fail to see what the recovery has to do with the burn tool - it should find the box if you use the correct connection and start procedure.
Plus - if the firmware is not for the burn tool but in fact to be used with the recovery then you should be able to flash it with TWRP directly.
I updated TWRP and ensured it was the right version for my unit
Connect procedure is open the burning tool>connect OTG cable>hold power button for 6 seconds from off state to enter TWRP
My laptop makes the USB connected nose but the burning tool doesn't display anything
Minix U1 fw install
Simple way is to start the usb Burn tool on your computer, load the FW image, then select start. Now ensure box is powered off, plug in usb cable to computer and box. Press and hold the power button and listen for the bling bing sound of the usb burn tool on windows, then release the power button, it will load the fw. Make sure you have no other usb dongles or scares in the device. Works for me every time.
Please refer to the manufacturer's official firmware guide to recover your device.
Check official forum of Minix and official guide at: NEO U1 full system image reflashing guide

[HELP] Beelink MINI MXIII-II (atvXperience v3)

Hello,
I've just burned the atvXperience v3 but a lot of functions do not seem to work. I want to try the v2 ([S905X] v2FF 1GB/2GB RAM - DDR3/DDR4 (18 Oct 2018)) but when I'm holding reset + inserting power cable + USB Burning Tool, the device does not boot into the recovery mode. Any suggestions here? Also are there any alternatives to the atvXperience?
Thanks,
Arthur
Hi, Unfortunately you've the new 8.0 uboot which just makes the device unfit for USB Burning Tools.
What you'll have to do is:
1. Find an OTA ZIP package and flash with recovery.
OR
2. Get a UART and force flash the device using it.

all i know is you have to use AML_USB_burn_tool, which I have no clue how to use. I actually found your post trying to figure out how to use it.
