@AndroidNewbie Do you have the image of the box?

@Sergey Lepeshkin thanks for the information.After a while search for soldering shops i didnt have any results, it seems like there is no soldering shop in my city (there are but very far away). I was expecting a alot of them since im in the center. What to do now? EDIT: I tried your modified update.zip, and it regonized it, i clicked the the Settings > device info > local update > mmcblk0 (the sd card with the update file) and it rebooted, after that that, the box didnt update anything 😕

@Sergey LepeshkinThank you, it all make sense now… but could you suggest a uart connector? And every time i boot, do i have to get the uart connected?

@Sergey Lepeshkin i also note that the picture of the tv boxhttps://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1etPmH8ZG4UtPHI3Vf1U9MUHl5_gK_s-E are from diffrent boxes, but the reflash_from_backup.jpg is probalby mine. But i can't access the recovery menu, is there any way?

@Sergey LepeshkinThank you! You made me feel better, i will flash your modified .zip file since i saw 2 partitions on the file manager, that's why Also, i don't have a uart connector and soldering skills, so is running armbian on my atv box impossible???

@Sergey Lepeshkin from the messages, i bought it online and the seller i know him since i bought wires from the shop. I couldnt contact the seller to provide the rom and i think they dont know since they most resell them. Also is it safe to install that file on my box?? Im scared that is going thr brick the box

@Sergey Lepeshkin HOLYthat was the same color, same board layout i think mine is the same as you Btw im busy from school and my phone broke, it was a long time since… Also im not really into soldering can i use a electrical tape instead?? Edit : i have checked the modified version of the file, and the os, all the malwares are on my box i think we have the same box. I have a good specs laptop from 2018, it runs well and i can compile the image, the problem is the memory settings since i think we dont have the same ra, chips accord to the 2 years difference of the ram chip on my board

@Sergey LepeshkinThanks! But i mean the reset button, but i will try since i dont have time and on school

@Sergey LepeshkinThank you, is there anyway to get it out and reveal the cpu (may fake, but worth trying) Also, i don't even know why they put a fake update screen on a fake tv box but i found a guy with same problem on me : I don't know what to do, my box does have the usb debugging and i will try to debug it

Hello @Nick A i was busy on school and my cable is delivered, i was able to use adb. Could you show me how to dunp the boot.img? @SteeMan, My box is fake and it is allwinner h313, is in 32 bit mode

@SteeMani also did some commands prompted by chatgpt since it said it was manufactored by allwinner also related to cortex-a53, aida64 said it too, so i doubt that mine are using a allwinner h313 chip

@Nick Aalright, ill do it

Do you mean gpu model? Like mail-g31?

@Nick A based on chatgpt with website research, it depends on with box meaning that mine still have a h313, its cortex a53. 64 bit, then what is it? (I can give you more proof that mine is allwinner h313)

@Nick A also there are some problem with root, when i try ‘su’ on terminal emulator, it showed /system/xbin/su : permission denied is there any problem with root?

I already ordered a usb to usb cable, bout 0.5 meters ( about 20 inches ) Already have adb too

i didn't found any axp chip in my device, but only a controller, it's very small and that's all i found. Is it ok to dump boot img with adb

Thanks, i will tear it down and see what axp chip mine is using

@Nick Ai don't see any h313 on the page, maybe i will just tear it down again

@Nick A sorry, i haven't got any information about the axp chip, i will do the reseacrch

@Nick A oh yea i used aida64 all the time (and with alot of command line commands), that's where i came up with h313 since it uses cortex-a53, the clock speed and the arch is 64bit armv8 (on 32bit mode) and about the secure boot patch, i think it's too risky (since it is a fake box and diffrent dram settings, etc,....) and i think i will buy a cable and test the su command, if it works, i will dump the boot.img and extract it

@Nick A su binary installed, but not working correctly, i don't know why, the chip is def h313 because i used cat /proc/cpuinfo(and others) and with grok commands i can confirm it uses cortex-a53 (which includes in h313) and bigfish manufactor/ or codename idk but it's part of allwinner, i mean enought to prove that mine is h313

Wait @Nick A when a device is rooted, do i need a root manager???

@Nick A i flashed it to my card and it's not booting to armbian...
