Can I recover bricked device from Mask ROM mode?
From a combination of haste, lack of experience awkward documentation and just enough knowledge to be dangerous, I have bricked my PPP. The result is a brief red LED on startup and then continuous green (lasts at least 12 hours). I think I have corrupted the eMMC - some of my stupid steps are below.
I have now enabled mask ROM mode (that took hours repeating the same thing over and over!). Is there anything I can now do to recover the device? I have read quite a lot on the forums, but I am now at the stage where I don't think my use case fits and I don't want to make things even worse than they appear to be.
TIA for any hints - I'm enjoying the ride but it's a little bumpy at the moment...and next time I will be more careful
List of activities:
1) Startup and play with the default software. Update needs several attempts. Find camera app doesn't work, and having set up wi-fi, I can't seem to change the SSID. Look to install some apps and find challenges (Signal not available, and 2 options for BitWarden).
2) Set up SSH so I can check a few bits, but then think that a bluetooth keyboard may be easier overall so enable bluetooth.
3) Perform update and reboot
4) Reboot fails and arrives in emergency mode (rockchip-usb2phy failed to create phy; bootsplash failed to initialise; failed to read codec capabilities on bluetooth hc10)
5) Boot into SD card (Arch Linux phosh)
6) Use SD card OS to extract Manjaro ARM image and copy over to eMMC
7) Current status
