I did the same tests in the post, the device is detected from linux, but I can't mount it to perform the factory reset. Tried charging it for days, the battery works but the touchscreen doesn't.
Is there a way to create the DO_FACTORY_RESET from linux, knowing that I couldn't mount it, but is being detected as the post I referenced explains?
Thank you very much. |
How are your mechanical and electronic skills? If you are charging it for days and seeing no change it sounds like either the battery is defective or there is a firmware or hardware issue. If you have the skills and tools to do so, search for the thread on opening up a voyage. Once open with the proper serial hardware you should be able to access the serial port from linux and see from the console messages what the problems are. If, as you think, the touch screen is defective then you will need to open the unit anyway to replace it.
If this is beyond your skill level and available tools you will need to find someone to help or sell the unit as is to someone else to work on.
