Hello community, I have this TV box which came rooted, so I was able to extract the dtb from /proc/device-tree with the command from the running android dts -I fs -O dtb -o d9.dtb /proc/device-tree but the box keeps rebooting when I try to use it I've been able to boot this box with armbian 24.04 and the # FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905l-venz-v10.dtb DOESN'T WORK # FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905l3b-m302a.dtb BOOTS # FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905l3b-e900v22e.dtb BOOTS # FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-g12a-s905l3a-m401a.dtb DOESN'T BOOT # FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-g12a-s905l3a-cm311.dtb DOESN'T BOOT # FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-g12a-s905l3a-e900v22c.dtb DOESN'T BOOT # FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905l2-x7-5g.dtb FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905l2-ipbs9505.dtb # THIS IS THE ONE IN USE The dts from the running system seems to be radically different from the one which works (I'm attaching the one I've extracted) Is there a way to add some info from the one which I extracted to the working one to gain access to the whole amount of RAM and making the WiFi work ?

Hi Igor, first of all thank you for your prompt response. By flashing the bootloader you mean something like this ? dd if=u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1024 seek=8 Thanks
