Looking for an original SD card dump – SEGAM M15 128GB (CP5301815 / PS43)

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for a complete original SD card image (.img) from a SEGAM M15 128GB with the following hardware:

  • CPU: CP5301815
  • Red PCB: PS43
  • Original firmware: SEGAM-M15 V8.0 (2025-07-22)

I replaced the original low-quality microSD card with a brand-new Samsung card. I then flashed the SEGAM-M15-8001100_V8.0.2025-08-22 image from Archive.org using Balena Etcher.

Unfortunately, the console only shows a black screen. The power LED turns on, and the TV detects the HDMI signal, but nothing is displayed.

After several days of troubleshooting, checking the partitions, firmware files, motherboard, and hardware, it seems that the Archive.org image is not compatible with my hardware revision.

If anyone owns the exact same model and could create a full SD card backup using Win32 Disk Imager ("Read" → .img file), I would be extremely grateful.

It would most likely bring my console back to life.

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

If you don't want to share it publicly, you can send me a private message. Thank you!

Hello. Thank you for posting your photos and questions here. I have only seen backup images up to 64 GB in size. Hopefully, someone will share their copy of a 128 GB sized backup image for this game-stick. https://archive.org/search?query=8001100&tab=all\

I have viewed many photos of that circuit board, and I believe that the name of the processor chip is HiChip or HiSilicon Hi3798 .

Also, instead of using Win32DiskImager, you can use USB Image Tool https://www.alexpage.de/download/usbit/usbit.zip , or use Balena Etcher to burn (record) image files to a SD memory card or USB flash thumb drive.

Cheers and luck to you,

Thank you very much for your reply, Pedro.

I should clarify that I'm currently using a 64 GB Samsung microSD card, so a working 64 GB image would be perfectly fine.

The problem is that the Archive.org image I tested does not boot on my hardware revision (black screen, HDMI detected, power LED on).

Do you know of any 64 GB image that is confirmed to work on the PS43 / CP5301815 board, or anyone who owns this exact model?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I don't know specifically. But you open the link, then open each item on the master page and try each file one by one. There are 10 or 11 to try (sans the one you already tried).

Also be sure that your SD memory card is new, high quality and genuine without errors.

You can use the program "h2testw" https://h2testw.org to verify the integrity and size of your SD memory card. Even I got bad fake cards when I thought that a "PNY" brand from a supermarket in United States would be good. *Format the card or delete all files off of the card before using the testing program.

Buena suerte amigo.

I found another copy of firmware for your game-stick, SEGAM M8 8001100 V8.0

Thank you very much for finding another firmware image and for sharing the link.

I really appreciate your help. I will download it and test it on my 64 GB Samsung microSD card as soon as possible.

I will let you know whether it works with my SEGAM M8 8001100 V8.0 and the PS43 / CP5301815 motherboard. Hopefully this image is compatible.

Thanks again for taking the time to help me!
