    Magendanz,

    The firmware I dumped for you 20170829.121614.V0321, well the img you made seems to not flash back. Getting stuck at 10%, fails at uboot and sometimes logo. Here's my error "uboot/partition logo/verify partition/error result". Odd that I was able to dump the rom but not flash it back...

      Well, I had to use the uboot binaries (UBOOT.USB, DDR.USB, aml_sdc_burn.UBOOT) from the previous OEM firmware release to create the .img file, and if the hardware on these August devices is using new eMMC chips it may no longer be compatible with the old .img file. I was only able to test it on my units, which predate the problems.

      What I need is an OEM .img file for the 20170919.150557.V0619 release. That will include any updates made to the uboot binaries.

      Of course, the other possibility is that the uboot binaries are fine and it's the prolonged write to the eMMC that's failing. Given that you're high risk to be in the affected batch, that's seems more likely.

    So, what should I install, if I want to have ATV on 20170829.121614.V0321 build (received box with it)? I haven't see user, which ran ATV on it. Is that even possible for now?

      You can't. You'd need to upgrade to the ATV build for 20170919.150557.V0619.

    Normally by OTA? And what should I install after that?

      Change the image filename to something shorter, like update.img and try again. Hard to explain, but worked in my case with X robot.

          See magendanz comment to my post above, I'm having the same problem. You probably have the same board as mine.

            It's failing in the verify step, which points to an eMMC failure.

          PPl with problems plz give the board revision... that is printed on the board itself!

                    No one, as far as I can remember, has Flashed a box that came with 08.29 FW and got a working box. No one has got a working box back by reverting to 08.29
                    All the boxes, as far as I can tell have eMMC Rev 5.1
                    Do they all have D/X Ram ?

                    It would be good to have as much info to correlate as possible, so if all who can could post as asked over in OEM Thread that would be great.

                    Pete

                    Note:
                    KLMAG2WEPD = 5.0
                    KLMAG1JENB = 5.1


                    Cut and Paste to OEM thread

                    If as many as can, could post their

                    FreaktabHandle - Box ##
                    STATE = Good | BAD
                    FW DATE = YYYY.MM.DD
                    SUPPLIER = Fullname
                    eMMC Marking = SAMSUNG | SEC
                    eMMC Rev = 5.0 | 5.1
                    3 Digit NUMBER = ###
                    RAM = D/G | 10DIGIT

                        I have had a pretty good look and the only HW differences in my 2 boxes are the RAM Chips and the eMMC Chip.

                        I can't manage to get a good enough alignment of photos of the 2 boards to do a difference layer compare in Photoshop

                        Nothing else stands out to the naked eye ...
