i got it done and i used : www.freak-tab.de/wasser/RKBatchTool.zip www.freak-tab.de/wasser/wasser-3.0.6-minix-x7-rk3188.7z Ofcourse you need 7-zip to unpack it.. untill you got the wasser-3.0.6-minix-x7-rk3188.img. (do not unpack the img file ! ) unpack the RKBatchtool.zip ( here are your drivers ) in a folder on your pc. Follow this video and use the RKBatch drivers. install the RKBatch.exe and exec. the program. load the wasser-3.0.6-minix-x7-rk3188.img . again media player off . again mediaplayer resetbutton (keep pressed) and power adapter in. keep the reset pressed... and press on button. Your RKBatch prograam will see the media player. Start update/upgrade with the RKBatch tool. Be very pacient !! the media player will start itself after update. Can take upto 15 minutes !! This should do it. you have android 5.1 lollipop.

hello, I cannot succeed installing or downloading the upgrade firmware for the Minix Neo X6, every time I select the link a page of error appears? What can I do, because when I search on google for minix neo x6 it appears a link *.img that doesn't open. Can you send me the firmware link zipped by mail? If yes. I would appreciate, Thanks for your help, Regards

I have an x7 mini and found that your steps are the best out there, so thanks. Problem with mine is that it was stuck at the Minix boot screen, so I followed your steps to get it back alive again and use it for XBMC. However, the next time I went to use it, a week later, it was stuck on the Minix boot screen again. I figured that I would wipe and reload once more before giving up on it.

Yeah, press the reset button as it's powering on. They can sometimes get stuck like that when they're left powered off for a while. It's only a soft reset so you won't be wiping all the data Let me know how it goes

I get a recovery module when I start up while pressing the reset pin. The first option "reboot" doesn't work. It wont start up, it just stays in a loop of power on/power off. The screen stays black. The second option is reboot with ADB. I don't know what that means and haven't tried it yet. There are about 5 more options to choose from. The option "factory reset" is probably the one I want do do. I have never updated my x5 . What do you recommend?
@ParotecIT

It's probably best to try following the video to update the firmware and perform a factory reset that way. But it's worth trying the 'factory reset' option first as it may be a quick fix Let me know how it goes

Any chance to have any of these firmwares flashed into a Beelink GT1 tv box? (different brand) I am getting one of these, and I am just curious if this would work or not.. (I already own a Minix, and loved the interface.. that's the main reason to ask you about it.)

Hi Cleiton, Sorry but the Minix firmware is specific to each model and can't be used on an other box without modification. There's other launchers you can install/buy on the play store that will work with any Android box, most have free samples to try so have a play around and you should find something that suits you Hope that helps!

Does this link supersede your link? www.minixforum.com/downloads/download.php?file=X6_FW008_20150923.zip If so: 1. can I just jump to this newer link or do you have to update firmware in stages and correct order? 2. Is it the same procedure in your video to up update it? Thanks :-)

Hi Nick, Yes that's the newest firmware, however i have never tested going straight to a newer version of the firmware so i can't really say if it will work or not, and we don't have any old enough stock for me to try it out with. I'd suggest using the original one provided and then just updating to the newest version using the OTA updater, just to be safe

Lol, We've all been there don't worry about it :p I'm not quite sure what happened with your update, maybe it was the wrong firmware? Unfortunately you'll have to do a manual reset, here's a link to a guide on the forum: www.minixforum.com/threads/how-to-flash-firmware-image-x6-x8-series.116/ And here's the latest firmware download link for the X8-H: www.minixforum.com/downloads/download.php?file=X8_X8PLUS_X8H_FW007A_20150924.rar Double check it's the X8-H you're using and not the X8-H Plus, as they both require different firmware. I'm only going to be active on here for the rest of today before i break up for Christmas/new years but if you run into any problems reply here and I'll reply on my private account :)

Did you install the driver first? Follow Parotec IT's instructions on how to install the driver. Then go to Device Manager and see if you see Rocksub device and if you do see it then the driver was successfully installed and your computer does recognize it. If you just open My Computer, you will not see your Minix there. Afterwards, follow his instructions by going to the extracted folder and click on the FlashTool.exe (or BatchTool.exe for the Kitkat 250 upgrade).

What @Kate Lin said :p. Also, you need to make sure to use the USB cable provided with the X7 (about 3:30 in the video) as the connector is longer than an average micro USB cable. Let me know if you're still stuck and we'll find the solution!
