Xiaomi MIBox 3 stuck in recovery mode

by TeemoToaster

Hello, tried updating it from android 6.0 to Oreo and now its stuck on recovery mode. Wiping data and factory reset are not working out, any suggestions?

Also when I use the update file without extension it keeps rebooting and showing the MI logo

Grab build 2167 and follow instructions from https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidTV/comments/9fo34b/xiaomi_mdz16ab_solution_to_downgrade_from_flaky/

If you then want to update to 2179, keep reading that same post. Just beware of using the same flashing method of 2167 as actually described there (keeping xiaomi_update file on the USB but removing the "--wipe-data" part of it with a text editor), not going into "apply update from EXT" in recovery as some comments suggest.
