Recover t8-s plus

[Sax noob]

hi all,

Went to switch box on today but only got a blue screen, I took the power lead out & pressed in the restore button, then with the button still pressed in connected the power lead which brought up the recovery screen. I did a erase data/factory reset there, then reboot system & all is ok. Reinstalled wookie new look and all seems well.
Just thought I would post this incase anyone has a similar issue.

Did your screen look like this?

Hi Mark,

Yes, that is what I had, there is a video of how to recover droid boxes but it's not done on the t8-s. The general rules are the same though. I don't install lots of things on my box so I just had to sign in to wifi & install wookie. The only thing I found was the date took about minutes to update. It was at 1970 but a reboot or switching the time & date option off & back on did the trick. Hope you get it sorted.
