Android trouble system update updating download






















They have a community of tweakers and firmware developers that may be able to help. Not on this list. Custom firmware is, by its nature, more quirky than a stock firmware. It depends on how it was created. Sometimes the firmware is designed to fix bugs and be more stable. That could cause issues down the road.

As I mentioned above, Freaktab. I have no interest in selling TV boxes, or being involved in that side of the business. New Android TV boxes and new firmware updates are being released all the time, so, while we try to keep our list as up-to-date as possible, you may not find what you are looking for below.

But for how long? If you want your devices to work in the long run, you need to keep them up to date and protected. With Android TV boxes, this means installing anti-virus software and a VPN , downloading the best software and applications for streaming, and keeping your operating system and firmware up to date. Firmware is the software that runs your hardware, so it is the base on which everything else sits. Out-of-date firmware can undermine your entire system.

As firmware is about your hardware, you need to go to the manufacturer of your TV box for updates. Check their website when you set up your box and periodically to see if there is a firmware update available for your TV box hardware. Hopefully, my list of major TV box manufacturers and links to their downloads will help you with this.

What can i do?? I need the newest version of the update for h96 rk with 8. Your email address will not be published. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. And just like software, firmware sometimes needs to be updated.

If you click on the chinese symbols above the listed dates you can sort it all by date, which makes finding the latest version soooo much easier. You will now notice the folder names. The latest dates is always the latest firmware.

The one with in the name is for the new model that has dual WiFi and BT4. A double click on the folder symbol next to the name will open the files contained within. Usually 3 or 4. You need to download all of them! Don't just download the image for the firmware alone as it won't work.

For the programs, games and other things you might have installed on your box the best option is one of the backup solutions from the playstore or to install them all fresh if you have your progress and details saved in the cloud anyway.

Copy all firmware files into the root of your SD card. Place the SD card into the slot of your box - without the power cord in it please. Turn the TV on and get a toothpick ; Inside the AV port is a tiny push button - you need to press it with the toothpick, hold it and plug the power in.

After seconds you will see a X96 logo on the screen - now release the button and remove the toothpick. The box is now in the correct mode to install the firmware without asking from the SD. You will see a little Android on the screen and a progess bar showing you how long it might take. Whatever you do - do not turn the power off at this stage or will have a useless brick! In my case it was about 10 minutes to complete.

The box will reboot and as it struggles to deal with the SD and dongle for the airmouse it might hang on the X96 logo. Wait a minute or two and if still stuck power off and remove both the SD and the dongle or whatever else you might have in the USB port. Now the box will start as normal and get back to naked Android, meaning you have to setup your Wifi and accounts. After that Kodi will work as before and needs to update some addons and also deactivate some that no longer work - damn bloatware You are ready to enjoy a new box now.

The firmware currently available is dated August but was only uploaded recently. The first thing I noticed that sometimes the remote is already activate and sometimes it is not. But as before the remote still fails to give me a stop button that does what it is supposed to. I will try to play around with the config file for the remote to see if I can get that fixed somehow but if all works fine on your remote I might just have a dodgy one.

In some cases I noticed that the Google Play services crash right after the start. If it happens once and after that every boot up is fine all is good. In case it always crashes and the Playstore or your games fail to work install the firmware again. I guess the installation does not fully delete the partitions before getting the new firmware on it.

The Kodi version is now slightly different and allows for easier downloads of the stuff you watch, but I won't get into details of this. The usual addons are all there, same for the wallpaper and menu structure you are used to.

I strongly recommend to give Kodi enough time at the first start to update and discard all addons! Failing to do so will cause problems later on, so don't say I did not warn you.

Some addons also mess up certain things in Kodi, so be carefull what you install on your own when it comes to wizards. If in doubt and Kodi ends up badly you can always flash the firmwar again and start over :. Firstly I want to get the remote working with all buttons as they should but as said mine might be dodgy so please report back if you have the same problem with the stop button. Secondly I would like to homebrew the firmware to include a basic Bluetooth stack that would allow the use of a dongle.

Last but not least I would like a bloat free Kodi version included. For this I am not sure if it is easier to do on a firmware level or by adding it thorugh the recover in the form of an additional firmware part to be installed. The first with the remote seems to be doable one way or another for the rest I will need time, mostly for reading up on how to make your own firmware. Yes and no. No because I really don't have a clue about the actual hardware of your box.

Yes because all boxes with identical hardware and using the same update procedure should be compatible. For you it means using a hardware info program from the playstore to check if memory, CPU, GPU and other hardware are the same as for the X96 firmware in question.

As most modded or geniune firmwares for these S boxes work fine on the X96 I don't see why it would be any different the other way around. But as with the X96 you might have problems getting all functions of the remote working. Mostly the power button is affected being lost or relocated to the 2 key on the remote.

If in doubt always keep a copy of your remote config file. It is possible that some boxes ignore the files on the SD as they expect different filenames. Here I can't help unless you find the correct filenames yourself. The only sure way to overcome these issues is to use a USB flasher program and to convert the firmware files into a format the program can handle. Like this you can literally install whatever you feel like but also risk ending up with a brick if the firmware is really incompatible.

If you do it then you do it at your own risk! Don't come back to blame me if a firmware not designed for your box won't work! Sure, as with smartphones the modding community is quite active.

If your box has a common chipset and graphics card then chances are good someone cooked a firmware together already. A good place to start is over at the XDADevelopers forum. Then there are various forums dedicated to certain models out there.

If you type your chipset, e. S and some meaningful other words into a Google search you get something like this. Right at the top some forum links and further down firmwares for various models out there. Do some reading, get some ideas and the right programs in case you need to flash over USB instead of letting the box do the thing from the SD card.

Are those alternatives or even a firmware for a different box better than what you already have? No clue, all depends on how all is working, especially those with 4K TV sets and Dolby systems connected often suffer from all sorts of problems in terms of perfect image and sound quality.

If your box is quite old in terms of firmware, let's say from then it does make sense to want try something new. Same if certain things just never really work, noone wants to have the box shut down when the movie is just getting interesting LOL Installing a custom firmware is risky, especially if your hardware is specifically listed to be compatible - often in a thread users test the firmware on their devices, so check there too ; If things go bad it usually means the box is unresponsive and installing the original or an otherwise working firmware will fix it.

But if you install something that simply can't work on your hardware you might end with a brick. For a lot of boxes you can get custom recoveries - if you want to play with firmwares then please consider a custom recovery first!

The stock recovery is often limited and only allows for a factory reset or the installation of a firmware. A proper wipe and clean or even fixing bootloader problems is only possible through a custom recovery, a flasher program or ADB, the last only helps if you really know what you are doing. A question I was asked quite often is how to backup everything before installing a new firmware. For Kodi you get addons to do just that, even into your cloud account.

For the rest all I can say is that it runs on Android and that the playstore offers enough backup solutions for all budgets. If you need your progress for installed games, account settings or you special network and proxy configuration than please do use backups ;.

I was able to find some useful tools that should allow easy backups and the installation of other firmwares. Will do some tests over the next few days and share what here what I found out. If any of it turns out positive I will share the files and links so everyone can benefit from it.

So far I was able to download a nice collection of tools. I paid attention to make sure they can all work in Windows, so no cryptic Linux stuff involved : Of course some basics are still required like a working Java enviroment, Cygwin, DOS basic and so on.

But so far I have: Working TWRP recovery Working custom ROM Working tool enviroment Main problem is now to make a stable firmware from the last original without the bloat and instead some essential programs, plus the Kodi Krypton release as an alternative to the Jarvis version - but will have to do some more testing and find the right beta for this.

And then there is the little problem of putting all this into some readable form so other people can modify their X96 or other SX based firmware the same way So let me know if you would just prefer a firmware to download and install or if you want to know all the essentials of making one - please use the comments instead of a PM.

After some time reading and digging through the WWW I found all the tools and info I needed to give ROM Cooking a try : Here is what came out of my kitchen so far: Please allow some time for the links to appear here as I still have to create suitable update packages and upload the files!

And I am still writing on this, in case it appears incomplete ; Important! That means the first thing you have to do if the Recovery boots on your box is to make a backup!! Disclaimer I am not responsible if you feel the need to try my firmwares and your box is bricked when done. Everything you is at your own risk and by downloading the files you agree to accept this!

I only say it works on my X96 box with P firmware. General how to:. If you do have a lot of Kodi stuff added or personalised I suggest to use the Kodi backup functions, available as an addon. For additionally installed programs, account settings and so on please use the backup solotion of your choice. All files are uploaded as a Rar archive. Inside the Rar archive you will find what needs to be extracted to an empty SD card.

I suggest to use a fast one with at least 8GB so you have enough room for a few backups. Once the SD card is ready and inside your box powered off you stick a toothpick into the AV port and press the little button inside, plug the power in and when you see the X96 Logo on the screen take the toothpick out.

Shortly after you see the TWRP Recovery screen and need to swipe to confirm you actually want to write onto your system. Again, the first thing you want to do now is to make a full backup of your box! Now go back to the main screen the little button for back in the "status bar at the bottom". If you want to try to keep installed programs then see if it works by not wiping the data part, although I do not recommend it.

Time to install the ZIP file of your choice to install the new firmware. Be patient!!! The first boot of the new firmware will take quite some time. The X96 logo will be on the screen and it seems that nothing happens and the box is bricked. Don't fall for this as I did so in my first firmware attempts. As all is deodexed and prepared for a quick transfer to the box the actual setup of everything happens during the first boot in the background.

In some cases the progress bar in TWRP stops to animate right after the firmware starts installing, if that happens for more than a few seconds shut down and reboot into recovery. Without another wipe just install the ZIP of choice again and it should continue fine.

I have not figured out what this causes, same for the touchpad sometimes only working if the USB dongle is replugged. Happens for about 1 in 15 installations, so you might never experience it anyway ; Recovery. X96 with slimmed down Kodi addons and keyboard fix. I included a fixed keyboard layout for the keyboards with the hardware ID 0e8f There might be other ID's for example if you use an air mouse with keyboard. If yours still won't work with this fix then please post your HID in the comments and I might include it with the next round of uploads.

OK and ENTER will now do what they should without producing unwanted characters or the need to use the pad to click on the onscreen enter button. Klick on this to download from Filefactory 2.

X96 full Kodi and keyboard fix.
