but when HDMI connected only big mecool logo was on the screen and nothing else (box does not boots )

log and files on sd cards attached in img.

Yes, you can reinstall stock fw. However, please note - first run init 3, then you have to write stock dtb to emmc in order to partition it for the respective Android version. Then start the sdcard upgrade as normal with aml_upgrade_package. Regarding emulators - I don't know my way around here.

1. stock dtb will be available in installation image itself?? i may extract and find it.... stock rom will be working on android 7.1 not on any latest version

2. can you suggest some any other image link for the box which support dvb (liberlec android or any other)

3. and also i am experimenting on current installed aml package to install dtv and other android apps, but it seems to be slow and most of the time does not responds,, i was unable to login in to play store also, may be its due to my internet or box wifi connection, i hope, it will get better as i spend more time with it......

Ones again thanks for your patience, sir

(DVB tuner support) DTV app with cccam is required, Please suggest any android image /LibreElec for support

or i can install tv box stock firmware by this method, which is used to install aml package.img

Regards,

Now write the u-boot.bin on the eMMC, as described here in Step 2. Then abort autoboot and reset the u-boot environment.

Code

defenv_reserv -a
saveenv
reboot

Edit: Then unplug the uart adapter and connect the HDMI cable, Android should already be running

Thanks sir, for your support and guidance. now my dead box is working "aml package image"

but in this software there is no dtv app. i am not able use tv tunner(satellite channels ) ccam,mgcam,bisskey (t2,s2 tuner support)

Android you can also write to emmc by hand. To do this, you first have to unpack the aml_upgrade_package.img with a repack tool, copy unpacked partitions to the sd card and write to emmc with the following commands:

(First you have to burn the dtb that you already did in step 3), then

Code

sdc_update dtbo dtbo.PARTITION normal
sdc_update boot boot.PARTITION normal
sdc_update recovery recovery.PARTITION normal
sdc_update logo logo.PARTITIO normal
sdc_update system system.PARTITION sparse
sdc_update vendor vendor.PARTITION sparse
sdc_update odm odm.PARTITION sparse
sdc_update product product.PARTITION sparse
reboot

result of manual write attached after extraction....

LibreElec

Write LibreElec img to mSD card. Open the mSD card on the PC. Look for aml_autoscript.. in the first FAT partition.

This script has nothing to do with Android.

Android

*.img unpack

You should only unpack the aml_upgrade_package.img and not extract the individual partitions.

i am using window 10 *.img unpack is for linex (i think)

"copy unpacked partitions to the sd card"

means copy all unpacked files to sd card root and then

Code

[mmc_init] mmc init success
switch to partitions #0, OK
mmc1(part 0) is current device

No, everything is fine. I suspect a weak power supply, or something like that..

Code

reading aml_autoscript
** Unable to read file aml_autoscript **

This bootloader needs aml_autoscript so that booting from the SD card works. This script is currently missing on the FAT partition of your SD card. I haven't used an LE for a long time - which files are on your LE SD card?

files available on sd card are already shown in attached image, in the previous post, (sd card is prepared from boot card maker, then files pasted on it.

ie

aml_upgrade_package.img

gxl_p230_2g_pie.dtb

u-boot.bin

do not have any aml_autoscript

Code

[store]amlmmc erase 1Cannot find dev.

emmc was not found. Insert the sd card and manually switch to emmc:

Code

mmc dev 1

Now repeat steps 1-3, but without the "reset" command.

There is a little DDR timing problem, I'll try to fix it later.

tried as per instruction provided,

[store]amlmmc not worked for me, was giving error cmd does not exists

tried amlmmc after search on google

02 nos logs attached (tried 2 different attempts)

also attached files present on sd card during the procedure.

(Sd card was prepared with boot card maker, then file pasted on it)

I think my mmc is bad, or need to be replaced...on board...

To avoid the installation errors, perform the following steps in the u-boot terminal (gxl_p230_v1#):
1. Copy u-boot.bin and gxl_p230_2g_pie.dtb to the FAT partition of the previously prepared mSD card. Boot the box from the mSD card and execute the following commands:

Code

store disprotect key
store init 3
reset

2. Write the u-boot.bin into the eMMC

Code

fatload mmc 0 ${loadaddr} u-boot.bin
store rom_write ${loadaddr} 0 100000
reset

3. Write the *.dtb file into the eMMC (partitioning)

Code

fatload mmc 0 ${loadaddr} gxl_p230_2g_pie.dtb
store dtb write ${loadaddr}

After these steps you must now be able to boot from the LibreElec SD card.
Insert the LE SD card into the box and execute this command in the u-boot terminal:

Code

run update

or use the RESET button.

I will upload Android IMG a little later...

Thanks
