Flashing MX10

  • I hope that somebody here has some experience with the MX10.

    This is what I've done so far:

    Connect USB cable to furthest USB port on the MX10 and a PC with a Linux OS (Debian Buster with kernel 4.19.0-6-amd64).

    Shortcut pins with tweezers until light goes out. I had to hold it a few seconds after which it stayed red.

    In terminal, check if the MX10 is in rom mode:

    According the the line “Couldn't open device, some information will be missing” no device was created. Indeed, lsblk does not show a new device.

    This is where I am stranded.

    Does anyone have any ideas how to proceed?

  • Nobody on staff is interested in supported emmc installs on box devices; primarily because it's a pain in the arse to guide users through the install process, and then because history has proven that subset of boxes and users to be a time consuming pain in the arse to support.

    You have a working SD card install. That sounds like a good direction.

  • Installation in eMMC works well for all rk33xx TV boxes. To do this, the system has special menu items in the settings (menu eMMC). I pay attention, before installation in eMMC it is necessary to make a full backup of eMMC (for this purpose there are also special items in the menu). The process of creating a copy can take up to 20-30 minutes (depending on the speed of the eMMC and the media from which the LE starts). After the backup and installation is complete, the system itself shuts down.
