It could be called "boot-loader mode" too.
Now to get into download mode (two ways):
1) You can use the adb command which I posted
2) Follow these steps:
But, before installing boot.img, could you tell which update bricked your device ?
is it the official update from Icarus's website ? |
I used the official update dated 2014-11-18 from the Icarus Web Site.
When I run the "adb reboot-bootloader" command it looks to me as if nothing happens (see attached screen shot).
When I adhere to the sequence described by you in an earlier posting (first adb reboot-bootloader command and then running ROM Dumper Tool, I am at a loss how the device stays in the required "download mode" as I have to switch off Icarus for starting ROM Dumper.
Could you please answer my question where (root Icarus directory or a special directory on the PC) I should place the "Icarus_boot1.img" or the "boot.img" from the official firmware upgrade mentioned above. What is the advantage of using one or the other?
