Unbricking w/ USB and Serial
Hello, I have been trying to unbrick a PW2 (S/N starts with 90D4). I was given this already bricked. I have cracked it open and attached wires to the serial pads and an adapter all set up and I am able to see everything happening in serial via picocom on a Linux desktop and I can send keystrokes and all. I was following this guide and using this fastboot.
Following the guide, everything is going good; I interrupt boot process and get into uboot. Then I run Code:
bist fastboot Code:
./fastboot setvar bootmode diags Code:
setting 'bootmode' to 'diags'... bootmode diags: finished. total time: 0.175s Code:
./fastboot reboot P.S. I want to ultimately do as much mod as possible to make the user experience better. So, I guess I will do jailbreak. Please LMK if this is the best course of action. |
