I think I know which paperclips you're talking about. Usually they come in fun colors. The one I tried was all metallic and didn't have a coating.

- Plug your usb-a end into your other computer and usb-c end into your pinebook pro

- On pinebook, get into maksrom mode. If you can't maskrom easily because SPI is bootable (only should be the case if you have flashed uboot or some other boot software to your SPI already) follow as400's guide

- Verify you are in maskrom. On other computer:
Code:
rkdeveloptool ld

look for maksrom output (e.g., DevNo=1 Vid=0x2207,Pid=0x330c,LocationID=1401 Maskrom)
Are you saying that the only indication that you're in maskrom mode is successful output from the rkdeveloptool command?
