What have you tried? And what was the result?
Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)
Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Tested with Backusuite, a classic procedure on the nib, often done with mips and always worked. It creates the main folder (h9) but only two files seem to have gone well, the others create them of about 1 kb each and therefore the backup didn't work. ..I think backupsuite was born for the mips structure and not arm, in fact my friends have problems with h7 too

For H9 the procedure for backupsuite is already discussed here on OpenPLI.org a long time ago. When you read the old topics here on OpenPLI, you would have known already.
In short, for H9 series:
1. make backup with backupsuite
2. download OpenPLI 7 from OpenPLI.org and unzip it on the usb-stick
3. replace the files rootfs.ubi and uImage in the H9 map on the usb stick with the ones you just made with backupsuite

Per H9 la procedura per backupsuite è già stata discussa qui su OpenPLI.org molto tempo fa. Quando leggevi i vecchi argomenti qui su OpenPLI, lo avresti già saputo.
In breve, per la serie H9:
1. effettuare il backup con backupsuite
2. scarica OpenPLI 7 da OpenPLI.org e decomprimilo sulla chiavetta USB
3. Sostituisci i file rootfs.ubi e uImage nella mappa H9 sulla chiavetta USB con quelli appena creati con backupsuite
Thank you so much, you have been very ... given your kindness, you could also explain the procedure for h7, thanks in advance

Hi the procedure for H7 is simple.
Just use backupsuite to make the backup.
When you want to flash the box with your backup you do it like this:
1. Download latest OpenPLI 7 from OpenPLI.org
2. Flash downloaded OpenPLI image
3. Start box with OpenPLI; after it is started install backupsuite
4. Open backupsuite and flash your backup with backupsuite (blue button).
So the trick is first to flash fresh OpenPLI the normal way, then download backupsuite and then flash your backup with backupsuite because your backup cannot be flashed with the normal method.
