I was flashing a rom using Amlogic USB Burning Tool and it was 87% (almost finished flashing the rom), when the USB Burning tool just stopped and my TV Box doesn't show anything at all anymore, just black screen! Is there any fix for this?

Yeah, I managed to get the device recognized by the pc, but now it gets stuck at Download DDR 2% and says this error "romcode/initialize ddr/read initialize status/usb control setup error"

Yeah, I understand! But I tried flashing the original firmware, didn't work for me! Then I also tried to flash rom, but no work! None of these worked! I'll look for an LPDDR3 rom tho and maybe it works! Thanks for suggestion
