I am trying to root my Boox Nova 3 and am looking for assistance. I discovered that I can place it in EDL mode by simply issuing the following terminal command via macOS:

Code:
$ adb reboot edl
From there, I can determine that the device is in EDL mode via both macOS and Windows 10.





The next step is backing up the boot and recovery images, and that is where I am hitting a snag. I downloaded the files in post #15 and from Windows ran the following command:

Code:
emmcdl.exe -p COM3 -f prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn -d boot -o boot.img
The response I receive is "Version 2.15" on the following line, and then on the line below that a blinking cursor.



It just sits there, and it doesn't appear that a boot.img file has been created in the folder where emmcdl.exe is housed. No error message that COM3 is inaccessible, or that there was an error connecting to the device.

Is the issue the prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn file I am using? I am lost and any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
