Can't get into loader mode

Hi,

I have a Firefly RK3288 board and can't seem to get it into loader

mode.

I'm doing this from Linux, I have the rkflashkit gui running. From

the device being in a powered on state, I've tried both the following

as noted from

Keep device power on.
Use micro USB OTG cable to connect host and device together.
Press and hold RECOVERY key.
Shortly press RESET key.
Release RECOVERY key.
Note:If device still can not be found after pressing "RESET", then try this: long press "PWRKEY" after short pressing of "RESET", before finally releasing "RECOVERY".

As soon as I press the reset key the device powers off, after a few seconds it

powers back on but in normal boot mode.

Any idea's what I'm doing wrong? Does it matter if the JTAG/serial cable is

connected? I've tried it both with and without.

Cheers,

Andrew

Err, hang on, I've just tried using the cable from my phone and it seems to

be working!

Thanks for the replies...

I was trying to connect a USB OTG adaptor to the USB OTG port. No, No, No.

Cheers,
