I have this box:http://www.aliexpress.com/item/AMLogic-8726-MX-Android-TV-BOX-Dual-Core-XBMC-Media-Player-Android-4-2-HardWare-Board/1175114413.html Got it about two months ago. Today when I went to turn it on, it loaded up the mbox logo but wouldn't go any further. I tried unplugging it and turning it on and off over and over. Nothing! Is there a way of resetting it? Or anything I can do at all? Oh, and please dumb down any advice where possible, I'm kind of a novice with this stuff Cheers
Monokne wrote: » Hey man No, nothing. I have very little on it other than what comes preinstalled, just a couple add ons for XBMC (Icefilms, Genesis, Sportsdevil). It had happened before where I'd power it on and it'd get stuck at the graphics screen but you'd restart it and it would work. Not happening now. Tried it over and over and over! Is there any way to reset it without actually getting into it? Can I hook it up to my laptop and do something?
Big Nelly wrote: » I am not 100% sure but you could use the toothpick method. Can anyone say if it will refresh the firmware? You put a toothpick/match(I prefer match) into the AV port till you hear a click, then start the box. it should boot into the recovery menu. Then reboot and see if works

dahat wrote: » Could also try factory reset them reboot if OP is comfortable re installing add ons etc. Should be able to get the box going via toothpick method anyway and if not then that's a whole different issue altogether.
Monokne wrote: » Hey all Tried the toothpick thing. Nothing happened. How would I do a factory reset does anyone know? *edit* Oh, and also, assuming this box is just dead, is there anywhere reliable to buy these boxes off? Want another box but buying them off ebay/aliexpress etc is a bit of a crapshoot it seems, no warranty etc.

Everything a user needs really, user preference will decode if a few extra add ons are needed but it is set up correctly using Aeon NOx. Firmware ran fine for the 45 mins I put a film at 1080 through it but will likely update it to a better version from Freaktab. I will keep this box on Android as it is a second box for the wife to use upstairs mainly. Back to the builds again, thses will cut out box sellers ripping folk off with "fully loaded" boxes, I literally had ot installed on 5 mins with no tech knowledge needed bar in putting the Total source
