dpratt1008 Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 If you just want to upgrade your firmware you do not need the testmode key, what do you want to do exactly? Â I want to update the firmware. But when I do that, it fails immediately regardless of what firmware version I use. The OS reads the flash drive properly, detects the new version of the firmware, but then when I press Confirm to have it go through the update, it jumps immediately the "Update Failed!" screen. I've tried multiple USB drives and multiple versions of firmware. This is why I feel something is corrupt,because when I reset the device, and it reads the USB key to do a firmware update after the failure, it says Update Progress... "v 1.01 - > 1.01" which is clearly wrong. So basically something corrupt is preventing my unit from updating firmware so I wanted to restore/flash new recovery and boot partitions to potentially fix this issue with the testmode key.

dpratt1008 Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 From what I understand, on your USB key if you put the firmware AND the testmode key, from the menu you will be able to flash separate partition as you will. For instance if you fucked up your "platform" partition (/system), from this menu you can reflash it individually. So I tried what you mentioned...use the Write Programs Forcibly method on the testmode key with the USB drive containing the firmware items following these steps: Built the testmode key with the firmware I wanted on the same USB stick. Put it into USB1, powered on the unit. Selected Write Programs Forcibly, pressed HOME. Selected Write Bootloader, Pressed HOME. Selected the USB, saw the correct version information, Pressed HOME. Device reset, and when to Update Failed screen shown in pic. and now it's just stuck on this screen...and pressing Home to reset just brings it back to this. Removing the USB key makes it remain on the Device Mount screen until a timeout occurs. See pics. Pretty much stuck there for now. Can't seem to get it to boot into any other functionality.

Magister Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 I think testmode_a lets you boot in android and testmode_n in the NOR bootloader or something, I don't know if you can have a script there on your usb key or something to reflash from here? Some people here knows more than me. Or I guess you can open your unit to take the SD card out and copy a raw image of your firmware on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To do that I'll have to unlock my SD card, which hasn't been done yet. I'm gonna see what the state of my SD card is this evening after work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dpratt1008 Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 So I can't successfully get the Transcend 8GB SD card inside my 7000NEX to be recognized by my windows PC. I'm not entirely surprised given this thing is what, formatted for a Linux/Android OS? So I'm still trying to figure out how to go about confirming the state of my SD card and it's configuration. Any guidance or input would be helpful if anyone has insight how to successfully read the contents of the SD card from windows if it hasn't been unlocked using the methods described in this original thread.

sandreble Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 Hi guys...  Every time I turn on my device, there is a long wait for the music to start playing.  I use an external 500gb hd with about 12.000 songs in FLAC.  I noticed that this is due to the creation of a database file of ID3 data.  I do not use the "TAG" interface in the search of files, but rather, "Files names".  So my doubt: is it possible to modify some files so that this indexing process does not occur ?  The database file can be found and copy to external device in DEVELOP DEBUG MENU -> DATABASE SAVE. In my case, the file is about 10mb.  Thanks.
