Hi,

After syncing an Aura HD (N204B) it performed an upgrade which failed.

Now, when powering on the screen flashes black, then white and stays blank.

I've tried the various recovery suggestions, including 4 resets in succession, and powering on and then tapping the screen to no avail.

I've accessed the SD card and checked there are no corruptions (fsck) - but no joy. Interestingly, posts say the second partition is a recovery partition. Does anyone know if dd'ing the recovery partition to the primary partition works as a recovery mechanism?

Failing that, I'd really appreciate a factory image to restore from if that was possible.

Thanks heaps.
