Unbrick or fix NAND on the MK808

[dabadon]

Tnx, but I tried everything... Changed three cables and four PC, and always I got same result: "Download boot fail" or "Erasing IDB failed". I give up

Same here. I bought it from DX and was dead from the beginning. I did everything I found and nothing. I guess I had bad luck. Not sure if I would take the chance to order another one even if it looks one of the best out there.

Thanks much to Finless though.

Thanks for your help.

I think all of us appreciate your efforts and work.

As Jose said, once again thanx....

New ideea : You used "ROM Flash tool" (or "RKBastchTool.exe") as admin ?!?

Getting the same issue as others in "MaskRom" mode.
Here is the log:

Try to uninstall, then re-install RK drivers ...

[jamslodki]

I did it and again same error. I have 2 devices. One of them work and I flashed on it new ROM without problems.

[Finless]

I think your other device has a bad NAND chip. A user here sent me a UG802 clone with the same problem. It cannot write low level NAND so it is bad.

Theres no chance for repair it ? When I run it first, I saw android loading logo for long time. I decided to reset device and it never run again :c

Just to confirm:
Does this log mean that my NAND is damaged too?

"Erasing IDB failed!"

I've been lurking here for a while... mainly to get advice on which device is (would be) better - settled for an MK808.

Finally my MK808 arrived this Tuesday. I have tried the original firmware for the first couple days to see how it was (not bad - expected worse). Then flashed finless 1.6 and the problems started: Lots of hangs and crashes. (I not saying it is 1.6 fault though)

Today it finally stopped working. There's no other way to get it recognized but shorting 8-9 pins.

I'm getting these messages in logs (tried erase and also flash):

Tried 4 USB cables, 3 laptops + 1 desktop (win7x64+winxppro+win7x32) might not have made all the combinations, though.

I'm lost. You still think it is a USB communication problem?

[mrigi]

Finless, we need your help.
Most of us having the same issue and even golden-plated USB cables do not help.
Bring us some more ideas please!

Re: NEW - Unbrick or fix NAND on the MK808

i read somewhere from bob its maybe a locked bootloader.
si for safety always uncheck bootloader in the flashtool.
he is working on it.

RKflashTOOL

Has anyone tested this linux tool? (it seems a previous user already posted he did)

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286305

It is quite "old" but it is said somewhere that RK30(66) is also supported with some tweaking.

@finlessbob: could you give pointers on this? At least the writing addresses and sizes for all the stuff needed to be flashed? Or, if possible, at least the one (file, writing address and size) needed for the device to boot again?

Right now i'm overloading with work to investigate and test this shortly...

EDIT:

More info on RKFlash and RK30 platform:
