Hey Renete, here's the available partitions:
Code:
recovery filesystem table
================
0 /system
1 /system_ext
2 /vendor
3 /product
4 /data
5 /metadata
6 /sdcard
7 /boot
8 /misc
9 /tmp
I saw your tools and installed Zadig driver, but I can't access EDL anymore.
The recovery partitions in update.zip are:
Code:
Anti-rollback 2024-09-10 11:04:34

Partition        New    Operations
--------------  ------  ----------------------------------------
abl              148 k  REPLACE_XZ[1]
boot            96.0 M  REPLACE[5], REPLACE_XZ[15], REPLACE_BZ[28]
dtbo            8.00 M  REPLACE_XZ[1], REPLACE_BZ[3]
modem           38.6 M  REPLACE_XZ[20]
product          563 M  REPLACE[6], REPLACE_XZ[269], REPLACE_BZ[7]

vendor           493 M  REPLACE[1], REPLACE_XZ[245], REPLACE_BZ[1]
xbl             2.99 M  REPLACE_XZ[2]
Thanks

I asked you a few messages back to print out a GPT.
Please use my EDL client (in my sig) as I don't know/care about other people's implementations.

I just can't get into EDL, I'm sorry but I don't know how to print out a GPT table without EDL.
I tried every method on https://temblast.com/edl.htm. Fastboot says:
Code:
fastboot: usage: unknown reboot target edl
Quote:
What? You're telling me that you don't know what "status 1" means???
(I don't either.)
I figured adb sideload error status 1 means I can't downgrade from 3.5.4 to 3.5.4.

You were just using adb sideload in recovery and now there's no adb?

You may be so messed up now you can only get to EDL by either EDL test points or by wiping out some necessary partition like xbl.

You can get to recovery and the menu shows up?

You can't boot to the regular system at all? No adb?

You're right, there is no edl command in this fastboot. (Although some others do.)

Yeah, basically. There's no ADB but I can use adb sideload.

I'm not confident that there is any EDL on my device. OR xbl partition, for that matter.

Yes.

Of course there is EDL on your device. It's in ROM on the processor chip. And xbl, abl if you can get to recovery.

This is an older device. I'd probably recommend that you open it up and find the EDL test points.

Other manufacturers might have "fastboot oem edl" but Onyx doesn't.

I opened up my tab. Now I don't know which of the 20 contact pads are the EDL test points I'm looking for? Can you explain if you know? And the next process I need to do, too.

A good photo will help.
Do you have a DVM? With "Diode test"?
Or any resistors?

Well, it seems obvious enough.

C, D, Gnd are your UART. Whichever C or D measures 1.8V is TX, the other is RX.

A, B are your EDL test points.
Normally (and only if I am right) could you short them together.
It's better to play safe.
Measure the voltage, one is 1.8V the other is 0V.
Put your DVM in diode test, black to a "sardine can", red to the 0V A or B, long power button press with USB connected.

Hey!
I need your help here. On my device,
A 1.8V
B 0V
C 0V
D 1.8V
Quote:

The device isn't going to EDL mode, maybe because I didn't quite understand what you meant. Could you elaborate?
Thanks
