Sunvell Q Plus, Is it possible to replace Android 9 with linux


Sunvell Q Plus with Allwinner H6 SoC 6k 4GB 64 Rom

Is it possible to replace Android 9 with linux? This is a TV Box not a phone.

Nothing is broke, I just don't like Android on a TV Box, prefer a PC type Ubuntu experience.

Here is a page to UN-brick it if you do;

Well, yes.

Can I do it without any reading or without any exact reference to the identical hardware? Don't think so.


If you find a web reference to this exact device and some exact hardware then the risk versus rewards tips a lot. No reference then you are on your own mostly. Usually the first issue is getting this stuff to boot.
