Reflashing the allwinner a64 SOC stock firmware?
#1
Was curious if there's anyway to reflash the chip inside the pinephone? Even if it's stock, I would like to go through the process of reflashing this chip. Even better if there are updates from sunxi.

I saw this: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?...4+firmware

Which points to here:

https://linux-sunxi.org/Pine64#Boot_sequence
https://linux-sunxi.org/BROM#A64

So I'm assuming I can use FEL somehow?

Where do I download the firmware hopefully with a hash to check integrity and what's the process to reflash it?

And a question about Pinephone PRO. It has SPI flash? Does that mean there is no BROM in the allwinner chip? Or is the same, and just boots from SPI instead of emmc?

Thank you.
