I found a trick to enter hardware recovery mode without connecting SATV to PC.
In the past, I had to connect SATV to a PC using microUSB to USB cable to enter recovery mode by hold power button for ~3 seconds.
After flashed rooted ROM 3.0 I found behavior of HW recovery mode changed, i.e., I need to hold power button much longer than 3 seconds after power light turns green until entering recovery mode.
Then I found by accident, if I left a micro USB OTG cable like this connected to the SATV:

I can enter recovery mode without connecting to a PC.
Regular Micro USB Cable - A to Micro B cable like this needs to be connected to a PC to enter recovery mode:

I have Android in recovery partition and ubuntu in boot partition, I can boot to ubuntu after power up by default, or hold power button to enter recovery mode to boot to Android from recovery mode menu without connecting SATV to a PC.
It can also be done by leaving Android in boot partition and other OS in recovery partition to boot to Android by default.

Hi, nice finding!
May I ask for some assistance? I'd like to dual boot the stock rom (for video watching) and a full android rom (for unsupported games and apps). Do you think it's possible using your trick? I don't mind having to enter recovery to boot my second rom.
Thank you!

I have ubuntu kernel in boot partition and stock SATV ROM 3.0 in recovery because I mainly use ubuntu, I occasionally try stock SATV.
I believe you can leave kernel of stock ROM in boot partition and put kernel of alternative OS in recovery partition. Some versions of ROM had a bug that any alternative OS in recovery partition gets replaced after power cycle. I have not tried to put alternative OS in recovery partition.
This is fantantasic, I've been following your prior posts and links for booting Ubuntu, is this image stable enough to use as a daily PC, and I take it the GPU does not work yet? Or do the aarch64 drivers enable it on the satv

As far as I know, SATV ROM 3.0 and ubuntu kernels base on CM13 or L4T23.1 are stable for dual boot. I have not updated to SATV ROM 3.1 and L4T kernel 23.2. I have run Nvidia Cuda samples without issues. Bluethooth is not working and remote controller is not usable under ubuntu.
so is there a way to dual boot stock android tv ROM & custom ROM with full android support??

You will need to put full android kernel + ram disk in RECOVERY partition and put full android file system in external SD card (or USB drive) and use the trick to switch between stock SATV and alternative OS at power up.
The ram disk should have init file to load file system from external SD or USB drive.
The kernel for alternative OS should be compatible with stock SATV boot loader and device tree.
im sorry is there a guide i can follow as i partially understand what you mean but i have no idea how to do it, but would love this as i have the same adapter so can do the trick hopefully
I can't make this properly work.
Any news about U-boot? Want to use L4T24 and stock Android together smoothly.
I'd like a solution to dual boot too...
Can anyone please help me..
I got my Huawei watch today.. And l was doing the flash system and it didn't work so I did a reboot recovery from the watch.. Then it's not working.. After boot loading the Android logo appears for 2 sec then it's blank then the logo.. Etc.
It isn't recognized by my PC so I can't use any command prompt.. What can I do?
Please help
I've got this tablet that is stuck. I have tried everything i can think of to fix it with no success. First let me say, I havent the foggiest about android programming, so any replys to this would need to be pretty much "android for dummys"! So, now when i try to boot this it will have the traveltek splash screen twice, then the screen where is says "android". That is where it is stuck. Once in a blue moon it will actually completely boot up but will freeze after a few minutes, or will have notifications constantly of processes stopping. Then when you try to reboot, it is stuck again.
I have usb debugging enabled, developer access enabled, bootloader is unlocked by default, though that is something that i can not seem to access. I can access recovery, and sideload. I have tried repeatedly to access bootloader so that i could try to flash it and have had absolutely no luck. I have the bootloader , recovery, and composite interface drivers installed, but all i seem to be able to access is the recovery. no matter what combination of buttons i press all i can get is the recovery. Even reboot bootloader in ADB doesnt work. Also any rebooting through ADB, unless i hold the volume - button, results in it booting to the android boot screen. I have rooted this a couple dozen times, and through ADB it says that ADBD is rooted, but every root program will say that it isnt rooted. I dont have TWRP or CWMR installed since i cant seem to flash anything to it and the only thing i have had success with was reinstalling the gapps.zip. And to top the whole thing off, there is absolutely no support as for firmware or anything that i can find for this.
Is there any way to install either of the custom recoveries to this by either ADB in recovery mode, or from a microsd? Or does anybody on this site have a link for the firmware? Or should I just use this for target practice and go buy a new tablet?

This is my second forum. Can the Fire TV's boot.img be modified so you're able to have an option to boot into the system or into recovery on boot up? I tested the communication with the usb otg mouse and it doesn't detect it at all until it boots up into the boot animation splash screen. I'm a new user on here, I've been educating myself with the android operating systems and how they work. The problem I'm worrying about is if its not going to work due to system partition limitations and the layouts that correspond with the Fire TV remote/USB mouses.
