How to install different OS's on Amlogic boxes

[@wheezybackports6444]

Normally you would see a hardware hacker ripping one of these things open, looking for a uart, getting a serial terminal hooked up, reverse engineering the whole box then cross-compiling a Linux system for it. This old man simplified the process for himself without having any idea what he avoided. You sir found a USB port that also serves as a debugger and just used that to flash your firmware images.

[@muratgucbilek4689]

How did you make a two-sided male usb cable. Can you provide the connection diagram?

[@qendreza]

See if u can order in amazon or aliexpress Seach for usb a/a

[@liamholcroft7212]

get two old chargers or any usb cable that has data transfer capable. cut them open, and strip the wires back. twist the wires together so Red twists to red etc... and tape everything up.

[@dinucatalinu]

I was looking for hours and you made it clear how can i connect it and get it recognized by usb. Thank you!

No dice I connect it and it shows up in device manager as unknown device. Can't find driver.

The HDMI is basically a modern times AV port as it carries both audio and video. Great video though!

Will this work with some of the ARM based Linux distros?

Richard Holbert yes, if it is an Amlogic device.

Hi Ronnie is it possible to run the O/S linux or windows alongside the integral android system i see that on say ebay they offer a dual system box for sale they are all priced at over £100? $130?

[@clarkss12]

You can run Android on the box, and either LibreELEC or Linux from a microSD card and dual boot that way. No Windows though. The beta version of LibreELEC 9, does give you Netflix in 720P with Dolby Digital Plus.

[@Ub7m]

Interesting topic , had an old android box 4.4.2 Amlogic s802 but it kinda would only let me update to 4.4.2 . Due to that is how it was made .would this amlogic method of sorts ,be usable to put more updated android version or would I be limited. Thanks

[@clarkss12]

I doubt if there's an updated version of Android for your box.

Ronnie Bailey : I suspected that . iOnly found 1 thread of a person who put mx3 s802 firmware On it but it was very complicated to say the least

I'd like to install the "Android TV" OS on my Sammix r95 TV box but I'm not sure if it is compatible with the BX905X_V1.0 motherboard. It has the Amlogic s905x chipset but despite my best research efforts I cannot find an image that will work on it (the specific brand and board). Do you know where I can find an image that supports wifi, a remote control, bluetooth, etc. that will work? If not, can you point me in the right direction? Thanks!

[@clarkss12]

I am not sure about an Android TV rom for your box you will have to search on Freaktab. However, Gearbest just posted a coupon to get the Mecool M8S Pro L with Bluetooth Voice remote for $69.69 USD. I have one and it is awesome, it has the Android TV OS out of the box. freaktab.com/forum/advertisers-and-vendor-support-area/gearbest-com/714603-mecool-m8s-pro-l-smart-bluetooth-voice-control-tv-box-3-32g-gearbest-69-99

So, I installed Android TV OS on my Sammix box and after what seemed a very long and panicky boot process the home screen appeared. I am right now testing things out on it to be sure it works properly. So far, so good! Thank you so much for this tutorial. Keep up the great work!

[@giftofnile]

You offered more detailed information about how to get the Burning sd tool. but I couldn't download it with out turning of my antivirus protection.

[@clarkss12]

It is safe, maybe a false identification from your antivirus app.

[@mrbungle931]

you didnt use an SD card? were you able to install the firmware just by connecting the box to your computer with a USB cable?

[@clarkss12]

With the burning tool, you do not need to use an SD card... The firmware transfers from your computer to your device via the USB cable.

[@GainingDespair]

It's not a virus some programs use things which are commonly found in viruses (like cracked games will have programs meant to bypass the copyright/anti-cheat (in some cases) protection. However these types of programs can be used to bypass anti-viruses and it most likely noticed that and flagged it as malicious. If you ever download a program and your not sure go to Virustotal and upload the program something like 68? anti-virus engines including all of the most widely known and used AV's. If the program is malicious the site will most certainly tell you but you can't be certain it's not a false positive either (unless a large group of engines detect it). Generally if Kaspersky, Bitdefender, Norton, Emisoft feel it's safe than it is They also use a lot of machine learning/artificial detection engines as well which offer a lot. I can't speak for all of them but I do know Sopho's Machine Learning engine has get to miss a threat in all of it's testing, it has false flagged a few times but it's not missed a single one even malware written on the spot (zero day) to test it for laughs. I guess my point here is that it's not malware and if you feel you have a false positive than submit the file to VirusTotal for a near real time (minus the min or so it takes for all them to scan it) answer. ------------- Totally missed my point in all of this, this program is more effective some boxes will not let you write to internal memory via SD card so you must keep what ever SD card you used in the device. As long as that SD card is attached (in cases like this example) it will work fine and store changes on the SD card however if you remove that SC card it will revert back to a black post format slate. This program solves the problem and it's extremely useful in cases like this (where my first box had this issue).

That is a tough question...... It depends on what OS you want to use, Android, Linux or LibreELEC/CoreELEC. Right now, boxes based on the Amlogic SoC are the best boxes for modding....... I have a lot of different boxes running different OS's. The most powerful box that is the most supported is the Odroid N2, but I do not have one. I have the Beelink GT King and King Pro, both of which are using the newest Amlogic S922X. There is a Linux and CoreELEC port for the King and King Pro.

You are correct on how to make your own male to male cord. I found a couple of "heavy" USB cables and cut the ends off and stripped the colored wires. Then I twisted the colored wires together, black to black, etc as you said. Some of my spare USB cables have a very thin cable, I didn't use those cables. Also, on one of my S905x boxes, my computer will not detect it being connected using the USB ports on my computer. I have to use my powered USB hub, and then it detects it. Most importantly, you HAVE to connect to the correct USB port on your box, it has to be the OTG port.

[@adnonchan566]

Is that possible on M8S Plus Amlogic S905 2gb/16gb?

[@clarkss12]

The procedure is the same for your box. You just have to get a firmware that matches your hardware.

[@senhalp5724]

Did it work on the tv box

[@clarkss12]

I need a little more information. What TV box??

[@mulv8272]

Will the remote still work?

[@clarkss12]

Haven't used that box in a long time. Don't remember if the stock remote worked...........I am guessing that is did.

[@amazonunboxed3407]

Will this work on the s95x box?

[@clarkss12]

It should, but depends on the memory module used and WiFi module....... It is worth a try.

[@jagtapsantoshr]

Hi Ronnie I got A95X A1 tv box while booting it will take 1 hour or more than 1 hour pls share what I want to do pls help me

Ronnie Bailey thank you so much, you are amazing sir.

[@philippeg470]

Is it possible to install prime os on it?

[@clarkss12]

IF you run LibreELEC or CoreELEC on this box, it MAY be possible, but have not done it.

[@philippeg470]

Awesome, thanks!

[@himmuappi]

Hi, is this work on android TV ? not android tv box

[@clarkss12]

Probably not, because the Official Android TV OS boxes have a locked boot loader

[@himmuappi]

Ohh okay, is there any alternate solution for that?

Hi I tried to do a factory reset but it shows this error "e: failed to mount mnt/external_sd (no such device)"...what do I have to do ?Does re-installing a different OS solve the problem?

[@clarkss12]

It sounds like you have a microSD card installed into the device?

[@vcool4930]

yes the SD card is installed inside the TV box....I try to do a factory reset but the same problem exist...it still stuck at the boot logo.It also indicated that recovery android 5.0 is not found.Can i install a new firmware for this android box?will it solve the problem?

[@vcool4930]

But now i have this problem of finding out the CPU model no. since I cannot boot into the system.Any idea on how to find out my CPU model no. as my android box is Red Bean RT-158 Android 5.1 Lollipop,octa-core processor 64bits.Search the whole internet but cannot find details for it.

I bought a Model: H96 Pro TV Box with 3GB RAM + 16GB ROM he gave problem I can not recover by sd card nor by burning tool gives error in 7% of progress would like the help of the friend to save my box I need to rewrite his bios

[@clarkss12]

That is a common box, so you need to go to Freaktab and search for that box. You are trying to install a wrong ROM is why it is stopping at 7% . You can find the correct ROM for your box at Freaktab.

[@dndgaming4136]

Can i install windows or linux on it ?

[@clarkss12]

You can install Linux, but not Windows......

[@dharmeshnagar350]

Sir can we install any rom on any android box

[@clarkss12]

No, the ROM has to match your box's hardware......

[@clarkss12]

It is possible, IF the eMMC is comparable. In all probability, the firmware will work on multiple boxes, but the WiFi and remote may not work.

[@gufulafa2158]

[@clarkss12]

Without knowing your specific model, I can't direct you to a firmware for it. However, if you do a Google search for your model, you may find a firmware for your box. Almost all of these android boxes have UNlocked bootloaders, so you can install any firmware that is made for your device.

If it can install in the Pi, then it should install on this device, depends on the OS that supports that ES.

When you plug your device into your computer, make sure you hear it connect. If you hear the sound of it connecting, then try a different burning tool.
