Is that possible these files or just one of them I can use it to have my KT debricked without compiling my own u-boot binaries? And if it's true, what should I do to flash u-boot. Adi23 didn't describe the command in his post.
Thanks again. |
No, you can't use the files that were posted there. They are both meant for different things. That said, I'm attaching a standard u-boot (imx50_yoshi_config), compiled straight from the original sources.
I don't really have an idea about what to do with it, but the most sensible thing IMO should be to boot into fastboot mode and then "fastboot flash bootloader u-boot.bin", followed by "fastboot setvar bootmode main" and "fastboot reboot". (adi23 used a serial connection to the kindle to debrick it, which is an entirely different thing again).
However, I repeat it again:
I take absolutely no responsibility. In the worst case, this might completely brick your device and leave only serial debricking as an option (if at all). In the best case, it'll work afterwards. In the second-best case, the situation will essentially remain unchanged from what it is now - but then we'd at least know that the culprit most likely wasn't the boot loader. (However, what else it could be: no idea).
