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 continued to work on the problem, but unfortunately have had no success thus far. This is what I did:
I backed up the various partitions with the Android ROM Dumper Tool v. 2.1. I attach a screen print of the output folder. The existing boot.img (old) has a size of 16 MB.
After renaming it, I copied your “Icarus_boot1.img” (which actually is identical with the boot.img of the latest official firmware update) into the output folder.
I then marked the boot partition for download (see screen print) and got a success message.
However, if I check by doing another “ExportImage” it turns out that the boot.img has not been changed in spite of the success message.
Using the old “ROM_Flash_Tool_137.exe” as recommended by Bob in his detailed instructions is no alternative for me, as the Icarus device is not recognized by the program.
Any ideas what else I could try?
