Hi guys,
I am new to the board overall. The board I got had debian installed on it. I am trying to reinstall OS / upgrade firmware.
Upon following the instructions on the fire fly website, I was able to detect my board on RKDevTool on windows. It states that the device is in loader mode. I was able to use "upgrade firmware" tab and the firmware I downloaded from the resouce page. All updated fine, but after that, when I tried to boot up, it would not. I reconnected the device to my PC and see that it is still in loader mode.
Is it not supposed to first try boot into normal mode unless otherwise? I tried other firmwares downloaded from the resource page with no luck. Also have tried to erase and then upgrade the firmware again, also with no luck.
I then tried to read "dev partition" in RKDevTool and noticed that no matching partition for "Loader", "Parameter", "trsut", "Resource", "Kernel" and "System".
I am trying to find out what firmware and/or image I should use for upgrade. ANY help would be appreciated. Please let me know if more info is required.
