Hi I have a Hisense 43A6H Google TV with Android 11 that i'd like to root and twrp if possible?  Although I cannot get it to detect over usb.  I don't know what I'm doing wrong?  May someone help guide me?  I want to backup my stock firmware so I root the tv and possibly later install TWRP.

I don't know how to get past the "No Command" in Recovery Mode on the TV when using WIFI Debugging with adb reboot recovery command.

Thanks

There's little you can do in stock recovery. Have you been able to unlock bootloader?

Thanks so yeah its a Mediatek MT9612 chip and I cannot find out how to unlock the bootloader because OEM Unlock is missing in dev options and I don't think Wireless debugging will work with commands in the bootloader or fastboot mode?  When issuing the adb reboot bootloader it just shuts down pretty much and doesn't respond to a power on via the button on the remote or tv.  It's android 11 as well so its very tricky system we're dealing with here.

Here's the firmware for the tv...  It's a .pkg so be weary you likely cannot extract it.

How many physical buttons or pin holes does it have?

1 reset button at the back above hdmi port 1 & the power button in the front.

I managed to get it to reboot to fastboot mode but other than that the command isn't working.
I think I need a specific driver for Mediatek MT9612?  Since all drivers I tested are not working.

I finally unlocked the tv which was easy but the command isnt working, like it does nothing when i boot back into the os. No magisk or supersu or anything.

fastboot flash boot_b boot.img

Know of any alternative patch methods maybe its just the patch that isnt working and fastboot is working fine?

Thanks
