how can i get a log from sc2_s905x4_4g_1gbit.dtb if it don’t boot ?

I bought this box long time ago, so return to seller is not an option… I normally use X96max+ ultra as daily box but thet is only 100Mbit, therefore I wanted to try this to get Gbit.

These boxes are ffffffffffed
Issues with wifi/ethernet have been reported across many Forums.

Regardless if JL2xx1 rtl8211f
As Portisch has posted
These boxes have not been assigned/mapped/programmed properly.

You need to astablish working ethernet in Android first.

Change/Test different Android firmware on Hk1x4

Try slimboxtv based on vontar x4
Is compatible with Hk1x4
There is Network Setting there
Network Status.

With ethernet connected
MAC is not detected/ hidden
Switch to wifi/disconnect ethernet
MAC is detected/ displayed.

Also maybe Test Matrix Nightly CoreELEC
Once you have working Ethernet in Android

Happy Testing

Hello my friends.
I also have this device, but I think my device is bricked. No matter what I do, I cannot recover it. The software stays at 94% and does not continue.
How can you write to me? Thank you in advance.

Restore the firmware

Is there any CoreELEC-Amlogic-ne.arm-20.0-Nexus_devel_2022???-Generic.img.gz available to test on HK1 RBOX x4 ?

OK, so there is none. Does 19.x work with this box?

639

And why you do not try it yourself ? You only need a micro sd card and about 10 minutes (the most).

640

Yes
Matrix ng 4.9 kernel
Nexus ng 4.9 kernel

Both are working fine!!!

Use latest nightly builds for success

And when ne is available
It also wil work/is working!!!

Happy Testing

Didn’t realize this is Hk1x4 thread

Tanix box not relevant :unamused:

I got no issue with Vontar x4. Using same dtb 1G. WiFi turned off in coreelec settings.
LAN picks network instantly without any hassle every time after reboot, power on whatever :wink:

which android firmware do you got?

maybe something with my environment?

648

Did you manually set the MAC address to a unique MAC?

649

no…
but I got mac address.

Maybe @Portisch detects a good one now, but monitor it to make sure it is always the same.
