Hi, I just bought this Docooler M9S-PRO TV Box (TOMTOM Lazada), however the firmware got auto updated (not sure how) and it is bricked (still can power on, blue LED, but stuck at the logo loading)...may I know how to flash it? Anyone has experience dealing with it?

I have tried using the USB_Burning_Tool but keep on stucking at 2% and telling me romcode/intialize ddr error....

Please help me and thanks in advance

Sounds like you got a hardware error. Better go claim your warranty.

u update that supersu? hahaha...it's a trap.

yours is 2g/16g model or 3g/32g model? b9th using different firmware.

if u use usb burning tool, you need to find correct firmware...new docooler m9s pro is using s905x chipset, can't flash s905 chipset firmware.

else u can try twrp recovery and install other version supersu apk, you might able to fix it.

2g/16g version, sadly I spend whole night and can't find the right firmware....

How twrp recovery works actually? Using the SD card?

have you look thru 4pda forum?

i only got 3g/32g firmware.

for twrp method u might need to ask nightfelix

short answer is YES.

First, dont do anything. Get TWRP into SD Card and boot from there, and backup the whole things (include System) first. (Yes, even you are soft-bricked at the moment)
2nd, go to chainfire download latest flashable supersu.zip and flash it from TWRP, wipe it and it will boot as normal
(I can't recall which SuperSU I download, I think should be this one: http://www.devfiles.co/download/74iPUjZd/S...1705271822.zip)

I was using the same model same exact as BOTAK_WAI

I own a MXQ pro + 4k box. I was complaining of poor wifi for my box and so I open up my box. Finally I found that actually the box which I have is having identical motherboard as m9s pro ( the S905X version ).

The pcb has this identifier H234_v2.08 2017-1-20

Yesterday somebody posted in xda about the firmware of this box and I did a quick check it seems to match very well with my box :-

The firmware link is in the post.

I intend to install TWRP into my box. My box is a S905X. I hope someone could give a recommendation of the version of TWRP which is proven to Ok.

Likely the remote is not going to be working but at least the TWRP should be able to mount/read the SD card, the system/data partitions.

Full spec of your box?

Post #7.

I have a MXQ Pro + 4K, said to be 2G/16G S905X.

The PCB is found to be identical with m9s Pro the S905X version. There are pictures in xda and other forums people posted about the m9s pro (s905x) version.

Try this one.

p212 (S905X): twrp.p212-3.1.1-0.img (refer above website) I also use this for my M9s-Pro S905X+(3G/32G)

What do you use to navigate when in TWRP ? USB mouse or the remote ?

USB Mouse. I haven't find any compatible air mouse+keyboard for my box yet. remote still untouch.
My Logitech Wireless Mouse (with Dongle that one) also working. My Logitech Bluetooth K380 also working (but just the touch pad, not the keyboard)

The PCB identifier is the same as mine :-

1. The antenna is embedded into the PCB.
2. The reset button is behind the SPDIF port.

If it was the same, you can use the TWRP try and see. If it work, it will boot into Recovery without any problem and backup the whole image system of your Android box.

there is a firmware just shared on 4pda...not sure for which variant.

Okay I tested the TWRP recovery. Boots fine. Tq.

I was able to navigate using my usb airmouse.

My sdcard is too small, I need to strategize my backup plan first before going further.

My current Rom is an android 6.

Is there a newer/better ROM than this ?

IDK. our M9s Pro already running Android Nougat 7

3g/32g variant latest firmware

Okay android 7.1.2, that seems to correspond to the firmware mentioned in the 4pda forum. Have to use USB burning tool for that image, meaning all previous customisation will be wiped out. It will be painful for me, need to ponder first.
