I tried to do a clean install from uSD with the reset button, but I either land in android recovery or am stuck in the x96 max boot logo.
currently trying to unbrick with this How To Recover a Bricked X96 Max using Linux
As you are mentioned in that post, can you assist and confirm that the mentioned dd command in the linked post is correct?
The instructions mention flashing the UBOOT and .ini file, but dd flashes UBOOT twice.
edit maybe @JohnBoyz can confirm this?
