The other end denied access, so check its logs to see why.

The box ran out of disk space and needs checking. It will probably get done over the weekend when someone has time.

I have a couple of S905W boxes that boot/work fine so there is nothing lacking in support for the SoC

Are you reading the SD creation instructions here: https://wiki.libreelec.tv/hardware/amlogic#box-images ?? - Instructions from anywhere else are likely wrong.

NB: You can hit "d" on an attached keyboard or use "kodi-remote" over SSH to bring up debug info.

RPi4 does not support 4K H264 hardware decoding so bad (CPU decoding) results are expected. It supports 4K only with HEVC.
I'd suggest reading this https://wiki.libreelec.tv/configuration/4k-hdr to ensure the whitelist and other settings are optimal. I would remove force_turbo and hdmi_enable_4kp60 as 99% of 4K HEVC media in circulation is 4K@30 or [email protected] and thus 4K60 which forces the SoC to run permanently in a more resource-demanding mode is not normally required.
I run an RPi4 as the family daily-driver without any real-world issues. It's miles more reliable than other devices I have.

I suspect you've followed the legacy image style of boot configuration (renaming files to dtb.img) instead of following LE instructions which are different. GXL boxes are all rather similar and except for user-error, it's unusual for devices to not boot.
-
Rainbox screen normally means "wrong image" so that does explain.
-
The dice-roll is always whether the box is a real Tanix box, or a clone of the Tanix box with minor component differences. And the only proof or it using an H6 chip is opening the box up and visually checking. All the main Android box brands are widely cloned, and some even ship with a completely difference SoC inside.

Are you sure it's an RPi2B and not RPi1B?
-
Kodi has a calibration function that you can use to (re)align the edges with the screen.

Larsen most boxes will boot from a USB, but usually only one specific port on the box. All boxes should boot from an SD card though. It's unlikely that an S905W box has encrypted boot, so I wouldn't run down that rabbit-hole before trying an SD card.

Xorg (and thus the Generic Legacy image) does not support HDR

Can you rm -rf the connman service folder for the NIC under /storage/.cache/connman/<name of service> and reboot. Any change?
And/Or try to use connmanctl to create a connection:
connmanctl
agent on
scan wifi
services
connect <service>
-
ConnMan intentionally cannot see hidden networks, but you can SSH into the device (over Ethernet) and configure WiFi using iwctl.

The image compatibility check will fail during RPi2 to RPi3 update/crossgrade as the image name doesn't match the current one. The cheat for that is "touch /storage/.update/.nocompat" before rebooting.
