Hello,

What I have tried:
I have extracted monitor.app application which I guess is responsible for that

firmware 15.8
Code:
nm -D monitor.app|grep -i serial
0000fa68 T get_serial_num
0000e9ec T ioc_getserialnumber
firmware 16.0
Code:
nm -D monitor.app|grep -i serial
00014fcc T get_serial_num
00013bc8 T ioc_getserialnumber
0002b9f4 B serialnum
Code:
strings monitor.app |grep -i serial
serialnum
ioc_getserialnumber
get_serial_num
Serial Number:
%s/%s/serial
Serial number: %s
monitor: cannot locate serial number
/var/run/serial
But, there is no word freezestatus in a whole image (stored as a plain text, maybe it is encrypted, or it is not using in a this device at all).

Tried:

Generated file .freezestatus
Code:
./serial --serial_number SN-E6063222M06597 --sd_serial 0x058F63666433
and this version too:
Code:
./serial --serial_number E6063222M06597 --sd_serial 0x058F63666433
then copied this file to /dev/sdb3 and /dev/sdb4

Tried to write this into offset 0x200:
Code:
echo -en "SN-E606321AF12297\08_1111101246\0"|dd bs=1 seek=512 conv=notrunc of=/dev/sdb
But still does not work.


This thread is about replacing of hardware SD card serial id with a known one (which come from original SD card). But I do not have original SD card, so this is not helpful for me too.

In that thread it is mentioned:
Quote:
Changing that will result in constant bootloop.
But in my case, there is no bootloop, there is just a blank screen or charging battery screen (when attached to charger).


I was able to run other application (snake):
I replaced symlink of pocketbook to monitor.app
Code:
ln -sf bin/snake.app pocketbook
And application was running !!!
Clock worked too:
Code:
ln -sf bin/clock.app pocketbook
But issue is that monitor.app does not work

Do you have an idea how to continue, what else I can try? Run it in qemu and debug it?
Maybe try to get monitor.app from this device

Do you think that monitor.app from TL3/626 would work on PocketBook 611?
