Fastboot is even simpler than ADB.

Nice! My sentimentals exactly.

However, it is a good point that someone unwilling to install the basic PC Android tools should indeed ship the thing off to repair.

I suspect it is because the device is not in recovery mode, but i can't get into the recovery menu in any way. I've tried several methods to get into the recovery mode, with no success.

Any ideas?

*EDIT* I accidentally got into the recovery menu and chose "reboot to recovery", but RKDevTool still didn't recognized the device (no device found). And when I used USBView I found out the device was in fastboot mode. But I don't know if that's helpful or not. I can't find much about fastboot on rockchip yet.

Is your device still running Android 6? If your device is still running Android 6 it is very likely that you don't have fastboot mode.

Based on my experience fastboot works only if the rockchip onyx device is running Android 9. Since the loader mode is working you should be able to upgrade your device from Android 6 to Android 9 by using the official upgrade tool. The upgrade tool would work on the LOADER mode.

Then it looks like I have a partial Android 9 upgrade. This all started because of the upgrade process.

I guess you should either have fastboot mode (Android 9) or rockchip LOADER mode (Android 6). So if you see the LOADER mode you should use the Android 9 upgrade package to put your device in Android 9. If you could find the fastbook mode then you can flash the latest package in recovery.

But still, first you need to figure out which mode do you have.
