Can I recover bricked device from Mask ROM mode?
#9
Glad to hear that you're working again, even if it is from SD. In my VERY humble opinion, I would wipe the emmc (as per the directions on the PPP wiki page) and then booting from the SD card will be trivial... at least until things are working better. You'll also be able to check out other distros on a trivial basis or recover more quickly than dealing with emmc at this point. About the only thing you'll get with emmc right now is a bit more speed in operation. But, that may be what you're looking for, so my opinion could be out of line.

I haven't seen the factory image available anywhere. But, that doesn't mean it isn't.

I know a lot about a few things, a little about a lot of things and am ignorant of an unknown number of things.
